scrapeLastNDays & oldestPostDate - Not working properly

Closed

enthused_armadillo opened this issue

I'm looking to extract data from videos posted from a specific date until now, with a particular hashtag. I first thought scrapeLastNDays would do the trick, but this still outputs me videos from years ago. Unfortunately, filtering with oldestPostDate in the input, is also not working for me. Is this something other people have as well?

I have looked at the JSON, but it seems fine to me. What am I missing?

Hi, thank you for opening this issue. As stated in the Input Schema, the filtering only works on the profile section of TikTok. That means that a search base on the hashtag will not be affected by your input. Searching for a hashtag will get you videos from a page like this https://www.tiktok.com/tag/foryou. here are my suggestions on what you can do:

  • Do some post-processing on your own, based on the information you now know on the scraper;
  • (what I would do) do a run to search for users with a particular keyword and then scrape those profiles, taking advantage of the filters.

Hope this clarifies a bit and helps, feel free to ask more questions if you need to!
