This changelog highlights releases that materially changed TikTok Trends Scraper for users. Dates use UTC; small internal refactors and routine maintenance are intentionally omitted.
Reliability
- Reduced sound and creator trend latency and blocked-run retries by bypassing legacy TikTok endpoints that no longer return results.
- Low-volume Explore runs now stop background page traffic as soon as enough distinct results are available.
Fixes
- Sound and creator fields that TikTok does not provide are now omitted instead of being reported as measured zeroes. Explore-derived output is also documented as discovery-source order rather than a formal regional ranking.
Fixes
- Restored video trend results by capturing concrete ranked items from TikTok's current Explore data feed instead of relying on delayed page cards and search fallbacks.
Safety
- Removed synthetic fallback trend rows. Runs now return only concrete TikTok records and fail clearly when no live source yields data.
Fixes
- Migrated hashtag extraction to TikTok Creative Center's current public trends API.
Features
- Added public Store task examples so users can start common TikTok trend scraping workflows faster.
Reliability
- Capped fallback latency so larger trend runs are less likely to time out when TikTok blocks live trend APIs.
Reliability
- Improved public fallback reliability for creator, hashtag, sound, and video trend searches when Creative Center returns no items.
Changes
- Added safer result caps and clearer progress logs for long trend scraping runs.
Reliability
- Hardened fallback navigation when TikTok Creative Center returns empty or blocked responses.
Reliability
- Added a public TikTok fallback path so trend searches can still return discovery results when Creative Center blocks trend data.
Fixes
- Fixed video trend runs that could return hashtag-style items instead of video trend results.
Fixes
- Reduced timeout regressions in trend runs by tightening runtime behavior.
Features
- Initial release for scraping TikTok Creative Center trend data, including hashtags, sounds, creators, and videos with engagement metrics, view counts, growth rates, and rankings.
