# Creator Profile to All Videos & Views — 3 Platforms (`funny_ground/social-creator-all-videos`) Actor Get all public videos and view counts from YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram creator profiles in bulk. No residential proxy or login. From $0.80 per 1,000 videos. - **URL**: https://apify.com/funny\_ground/social-creator-all-videos.md - **Developed by:** [Coor Yu](https://apify.com/funny_ground) (community) - **Categories:** Social media, Videos, Lead generation - **Stats:** 2 total users, 1 monthly users, 100.0% runs succeeded, 0 bookmarks - **User rating**: No ratings yet ## Pricing from $0.80 / 1,000 creator video results This Actor is paid per event and usage. You are charged both the fixed price for specific events and for Apify platform usage. Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

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.

One run can mix YouTube channels, TikTok creators, and Instagram profiles. Large and full-history crawls publish an initial runtime estimate plus live profile/video progress in the Actor run status. The estimate is refined as profiles finish; unusually large catalogs can exceed the initial range. The Actor is designed for sustained bulk jobs: - streams input profiles from an Apify Dataset in 1,000-row pages; - streams video results while each profile is still being paginated; - uses separate concurrency guards for each platform; - isolates failed profiles so one unavailable account does not stop the batch; - stops promptly when the run's maximum charge limit is reached; - never requests residential proxies and never asks for social-account credentials. ### Input ```json { "profileUrls": [ "https://www.youtube.com/@MrBeast", "https://www.tiktok.com/@scout2015", "https://www.instagram.com/nasa/" ], "maxVideosPerProfile": 0, "includeYouTubeShorts": true, "includeYouTubeStreams": true, "maxConcurrency": 8 } ``` `maxVideosPerProfile: 0` means all videos exposed by the public profile endpoints, up to a 50,000-video safety cap per profile. Set a small positive number when testing inputs or sampling creators. For very large lists, provide `inputDatasetId` and `urlField`. The Actor reads the source dataset incrementally, so the entire profile list is never loaded into memory. ### Output Each successful row represents one video and includes a stable cross-platform core: ```json { "status": "ok", "platform": "tiktok", "creatorUsername": "scout2015", "profileUrl": "https://www.tiktok.com/@scout2015", "videoId": "6718335390845095173", "videoUrl": "https://www.tiktok.com/@scout2015/video/6718335390845095173", "title": "caption text", "publishedAt": "2019-10-16T15:52:21.000Z", "viewCount": 123456, "playCount": 123456, "likeCount": 1000, "commentCount": 50, "shareCount": 20 } ``` Platform-specific fields such as Shorts/live flags, hashtags, music, dimensions, verification, saves, media type, and thumbnail URL are included when publicly available. Failed, private, invalid, or unavailable profiles can produce a diagnostic row with `status: "failed"`. Diagnostic rows are not charged as successful video results. ### Collection methods - **YouTube:** direct HTTP plus the public web Innertube continuation flow. Videos, Shorts, and live-stream tabs are paginated and deduplicated. - **TikTok:** paced HTTP pagination through a public web-data endpoint, returning public play and engagement counts. - **Instagram:** one lightweight browser session calls Instagram's logged-out public GraphQL endpoints through Apify's non-residential datacenter proxy. Reels and older video posts are merged and deduplicated. No residential proxy group is ever requested. YouTube and TikTok use direct Actor datacenter egress; Instagram uses the standard Apify datacenter proxy for more reliable large runs. ### Accuracy notes - TikTok and Instagram return the numeric counters exposed by their public endpoints. - YouTube channel grids can display abbreviated counts (for example `1.2M`), especially for Shorts; these are normalized to numbers and may therefore be approximate. - A platform may hide a counter, remove a video, make a profile private, throttle anonymous traffic, or change a public endpoint. Missing public fields are returned as `null`; failures are reported per profile. ### Pricing The Actor uses pay-per-event pricing: the standard $0.00005 Actor-start event covers initialization, and each successfully written video row incurs one `video-result` event. The video price is $1.00 per 1,000 results on the Free plan, $0.90 per 1,000 on Bronze, and $0.80 per 1,000 on Silver and higher plans. Failed diagnostic rows are free. Platform compute usage is paid by the Actor user, so large jobs remain economically sustainable without residential-proxy costs. Use `maxVideosPerProfile` for a cheap sample run, then switch to `0` for complete profiles after confirming the result format. # Actor input Schema ## `profileUrls` (type: `array`): YouTube channel, TikTok @profile, or Instagram profile URLs. You may mix all three platforms in one run. ## `inputDatasetId` (type: `string`): Optional. Stream an arbitrarily large profile list from an Apify dataset. Each item should contain the field selected below. ## `urlField` (type: `string`): Field containing the creator profile URL in each input dataset item. ## `maxVideosPerProfile` (type: `integer`): 0 fetches all available public videos, with a 50,000-row safety cap per profile. Set a positive number for faster samples. ## `includeYouTubeShorts` (type: `boolean`): Also paginate the channel Shorts tab and deduplicate against regular videos. ## `includeYouTubeStreams` (type: `boolean`): Also paginate the channel Live tab and deduplicate against other tabs. ## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`): Profiles processed simultaneously. Per-platform safeguards are applied automatically. ## `youtubeConcurrency` (type: `integer`): Maximum simultaneous YouTube profiles. ## `tiktokConcurrency` (type: `integer`): Maximum simultaneous TikTok profiles. Requests are globally paced for reliability. ## `instagramConcurrency` (type: `integer`): Instagram public GraphQL uses one shared browser session; 1 is the safest setting. ## `instagramRequestDelayMs` (type: `integer`): Minimum spacing between public Instagram GraphQL requests. ## `maxRequestRetries` (type: `integer`): Retries transient network, throttling, and server errors. ## `requestTimeoutSecs` (type: `integer`): Maximum time for one upstream request. ## `includeFailedProfiles` (type: `boolean`): Write one free diagnostic row for invalid, private, unavailable, or failed profiles. ## Actor input object example ```json { "profileUrls": [ "https://www.youtube.com/@MrBeast", "https://www.tiktok.com/@scout2015", "https://www.instagram.com/nasa/" ], "urlField": "url", "maxVideosPerProfile": 0, "includeYouTubeShorts": true, "includeYouTubeStreams": true, "maxConcurrency": 8, "youtubeConcurrency": 8, "tiktokConcurrency": 3, "instagramConcurrency": 1, "instagramRequestDelayMs": 350, "maxRequestRetries": 2, "requestTimeoutSecs": 45, "includeFailedProfiles": true } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): No description ## `summary` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
