## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

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

# README

## TikTok Video Details Scraper

Look up a single TikTok video by URL or numeric video ID. Returns the caption, play / like / comment / share / save counts, watermark-free playback and download URLs, cover images, music track info, and author details. Provide exactly one of `url` or `video_id`.

### Features

- Real-time TikTok data — results are fetched live at run time, never cached or stale
- No login, cookies, or proxy configuration needed — just provide the input and run
- Each result is pushed as a separate dataset item, exportable as JSON, CSV, or Excel
- Fast: a typical run finishes in seconds

### Input

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `url` | string | no | TikTok video URL, e.g. https://www.tiktok.com/@tiktok/video/7516594811734854943 (max 500 characters). Provide exactly one of url or video\_id. |
| `video_id` | string | no | Numeric TikTok video ID, as returned by Search Videos. Provide exactly one of url or video\_id. |

### Pricing

This Actor is billed **per run** — a flat **$0.006 per run**.

- One run returns all matching results for your input, and costs $0.006 — whether it comes back with one result or hundreds.
- You’re only charged when a run succeeds. Failed runs are free.
