## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## ⚡ TikTok Hashtag Scraper — Videos by Hashtag (No Login, No API Key)

**Pull every video under any TikTok hashtag — no login, no API key, no proxy.** Feed it hashtags (with or without `#`) or `/tag/` URLs and get back each video with **views, likes, comments, shares, saves**, video & cover URLs, music/sound, author and timestamps. Export to **JSON, CSV or Excel**, call it from the **API**, or have results delivered straight to **Notion**. **Just $0.25 per 1,000 results.**

> No account. No signing keys. No msToken to paste. Paste a hashtag and run.

### Why this scraper wins

- 🔓 **Keyless, sign-free, proxy-free** — no login, no API key, no signing keys, and **no proxy needed**. It just works.
- 🛡️ **Beats TikTok's IP blocking** — sources data through infrastructure TikTok trusts, so you always get the *real* numbers instead of a flagged-IP decoy.
- 💸 **Cheaper, pay-per-result** — $0.25 / 1,000 results, billed only for videos actually returned. Empty/failed runs cost nothing.
- 🧹 **Clean, flat records** — one tidy object per video, ready for sheets, dashboards or LLM pipelines.
- 📬 **Built-in Notion delivery** — push every run into Notion via Apify connectors, zero extra code.
- 🚦 **Honest errors** — a clear `errorCode` row (`BLOCKED`, `RATE_LIMITED`, `NO_RESULTS`) when something goes wrong, instead of silent emptiness.

### What you can scrape

| Mode | Input | Returns |
|---|---|---|
| **Hashtag** | `hashtags` (e.g. `cats`, `#spacex`) | Videos under each hashtag |
| **Tag URL** | a `/tag/` URL in `startUrls` | Videos under that hashtag |

Want profiles, search and single videos too? Use the all-in-one **TikTok Scraper**.

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `hashtags` | array | Hashtags (with or without `#`) to pull videos from. |
| `startUrls` | array | Or paste TikTok `/tag/` URLs, e.g. `https://www.tiktok.com/tag/cats`. |
| `resultsPerPage` | integer | Max videos per hashtag (1–2000, default 50). Charged per result. |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | Optional — this scraper needs no proxy. |
| `notionConnector` | string | Optional Notion connector ID for delivery via Apify MCP connectors. |
| `notionParentId` | string | Optional Notion database/data-source id. |

### Pricing

**$0.25 per 1,000 results** (pay-per-result). You are only charged for videos actually returned — empty or failed runs cost nothing.

### FAQ

**Do I need a TikTok account?** No. Public hashtag pages work fully keyless.

**Do I need a proxy?** No. This scraper needs no proxy at all — that's a key advantage. It works from any IP.

**How many videos can I get per hashtag?** Up to 2,000 per hashtag via `resultsPerPage`; the default is 50.

**How does it beat TikTok's blocking?** TikTok serves flagged IPs a fake decoy page with bogus numbers. This scraper sources data through infrastructure TikTok trusts, so you always get the real counts.

**It returned an `errorCode` row — why?** That's the actor telling you exactly what happened (`BLOCKED`, `RATE_LIMITED`, `NO_RESULTS`) instead of failing silently.
