🚀 How to search TikTok videos by keyword

1. Add one or more topics under Search queries.
2. Choose the maximum number of videos you want for each search.
3. Turn on Scrape video comments if you also need comments.
4. Choose the maximum number of comments per video.
5. Click Start.
6. Open the Videos or Comments table when the run finishes.

🧩 Example search

Setting	Example
Search queries	running shoes, marathon training
Maximum videos per query	100
Scrape video comments	Yes
Maximum comments per video	200

Each search has its own video limit. Comment collection is off by default because it takes longer and uses more resources.

The Actor automatically reuses a short-lived TikTok search session inside each run. This avoids downloading the same TikTok search page and signing program again for every query. The session is not a user login and is never reused between Actor runs.

📊 What TikTok data will you receive?

Reduce residential proxy traffic

Traffic optimization happens automatically. The Actor requests only the number of search results still needed, reuses its search bootstrap and live TikTok signing program, skips comment requests for videos that report zero comments, and tries the lightweight comments API before loading a video page. Failed work is retried with a fresh session only when needed.

📤 Export TikTok videos and comments

Download the results as CSV or Excel for spreadsheets, or choose JSON and other formats when needed. The Videos table is best for content and activity research. The Comments table is best when you want to export social media comments for review.

You can also schedule repeat runs and connect results to other tools supported by Apify.

💳 Pricing

You pay for saved results. Each unique video is counted once, even if several searches find it. Comments are counted only when they are successfully saved. Repeated videos, failed comment attempts, and unavailable comments are not charged as results.

See the Actor's Pricing tab for current prices. Start with a small number of videos and leave comment collection off for your first test run.

❓ Frequently asked questions

Is it possible to scrape data from TikTok?

Yes. This Actor collects public TikTok videos that match your searches and can also collect their public comments. It does not access private profiles, private comments, direct messages, or other account-only information. You do not need to provide TikTok login details.

How can I extract data from TikTok?

Enter your topics, choose how many videos you need, and start the Actor. Open the Videos table when the run finishes. Turn on comment collection if you also need public comments, then open the Comments table. You can download either table for further work.

How to analyze competitor social media?

Search for competitor names, products, campaigns, and shared category terms in the same run. Compare which videos appear, their search positions, publish dates, and public activity. The Actor gathers the source information for your research; it does not create scores, judge sentiment, or make recommendations.
