🔥 What is TikTok Trends?

TikTok Trends scrapes the trending hashtags and the top-performing videos from TikTok Creative Center and gives them back as clean, structured data. Pick a country, a time period and an industry, and get the TikTok trending hashtags with their posts, views, popularity curve and top creators, or the top TikTok videos with views, engagement rate and 6-second view-through rate.

No TikTok account, no login and no proxy setup are needed: you get the full trending list in a few seconds, ready as JSON, CSV or Excel.

Use this TikTok trends scraper to find content ideas before they peak, to follow what works in your industry, to spot the creators behind each trend, or to feed TikTok trend data into your dashboards and AI agents.

💡 Why scrape TikTok trends?

TikTok trends move fast: a hashtag can rise and fade in a week. Scraping TikTok Creative Center on a schedule lets you:

• Plan content around the hashtags that are growing right now in your country
• Benchmark creatives: see which videos get the most views and engagement in your industry
• Find creators who already drive a trend, for influencer campaigns
• Compare markets: what trends in the US, France, Japan or Brazil this week
• Build a history: Creative Center only shows the present, a daily run keeps the past

🚀 How to scrape TikTok trends

💰 How much does it cost to scrape TikTok trends?

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing: you pay a small fee when a run starts and a price per result. 100 trending hashtags cost less than $0.20 on the free plan. The price per result goes down on higher Apify plans, and the current prices are always on the Pricing tab.

Apify's free plan includes monthly credits, enough to try the Actor many times. To control your spending, set max items and a maximum cost per run in the run options.

How to read the numbers

• Trend Data and Trend Stats are on a 0 to 100 scale: 100 is the day the hashtag was the most popular in the period. They show the shape of the trend, not a number of views.
• Engagement Rate and 6s View-Through Rate are ratios: 0.128 means 12.8%.
• Organic Views excludes paid views. Use videoOrganicOnly to keep only non-paid videos.

🔎 Is there a TikTok Trends API?

TikTok does not offer a public API for Creative Center trends. This Actor works as a TikTok Trends API: send a country, a period and a filter in one request, and get the trending hashtags or top videos back as JSON.

🔌 How to use TikTok Trends as an API

Get your API token in Apify Console under Settings > Integrations.

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("data_xplorer/tiktok-trends").call(run_input={
    "trendType": "hashtags",
    "countryCode": "US",
    "hashtagPeriod": "7",
    "maxItems": 50,
})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item["Rank"], item["Hashtag"], item["Posts"])

Node.js

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('data_xplorer/tiktok-trends').call({
    trendType: 'videos',
    videoCountry: 'US',
    videoPeriod: '7',
    maxItems: 50,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

cURL

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/data_xplorer~tiktok-trends/run-sync-get-dataset-items" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"trendType":"hashtags","countryCode":"FR","hashtagPeriod":"7","maxItems":50}'

🤖 Use TikTok Trends with AI agents (MCP)

MCP server URL:

https://mcp.apify.com?tools=data_xplorer/tiktok-trends

Claude Code:

$claude mcp add --transport http tiktok-trends "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=data_xplorer/tiktok-trends"

❓ FAQ

Do I need a TikTok account?
