## 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.

# README

## TikTok Followers Scraper

Scrape public TikTok followers and following profiles from one or more source accounts. The actor returns clean, export-ready rows with profile identity, audience counts, verification state, region, bio, avatar URL, source account, and whether the row came from a followers or following list.

### What you get

- TikTok username and profile URL
- Display name, TikTok ID, and secUid
- Bio/signature and avatar URL
- Verified/private flags when available
- Region, follower count, following count, total likes, video count, and favoriting count
- Source account and relationship type: follower or following
- Optional raw provider object for debugging and advanced enrichment

### Input

Provide TikTok usernames or profile URLs in `profiles`, then choose:

- `mode`: `followers`, `following`, or `both`
- `maxResultsPerProfile`: maximum rows per source profile and list type
- `includeRawData`: include the original provider object under `raw`

Example:

```json
{
  "profiles": ["khaby.lame", "https://www.tiktok.com/@stoolpresidente"],
  "mode": "followers",
  "maxResultsPerProfile": 100,
  "includeRawData": false
}
````

### Output

Each dataset item is one collected TikTok profile:

```json
{
  "username": "creator",
  "display_name": "Creator Name",
  "tiktok_id": "123456789",
  "sec_uid": "MS4wLjABAAAA...",
  "profile_url": "https://www.tiktok.com/@creator",
  "avatar_url": "https://p16-sign.tiktokcdn-us.com/avatar.jpg",
  "bio": "Creator bio",
  "is_verified": true,
  "verification_label": "Verified account",
  "is_private": false,
  "region": "US",
  "follower_count": 12000,
  "following_count": 812,
  "total_likes": 245000,
  "video_count": 134,
  "favoriting_count": 33,
  "relationship": "follower",
  "source_username": "khaby.lame",
  "scraped_at": "2026-06-10T12:00:00.000Z"
}
```

### Public data and reliability

This actor is provider-backed and does not require TikTok cookies, passwords, or browser sessions. It is designed for public profile graph extraction and will not unlock private or login-only data.

Runs write a `RUN_SUMMARY` key-value record with total rows, provider credits used, selected mode, failed targets, and completion timestamp.

### Pricing

Pay per event:

- Actor start: `$0.00005`
- Scraped TikTok profile: tiered from `$0.0015` on Free to `$0.0005` on Diamond

The actor includes charge guards so it never bills more rows than `profiles x selected list types x maxResultsPerProfile`.

### Use cases

- Influencer audience research
- Competitor audience exports
- Creator lead generation
- Social graph enrichment
- Audience segmentation and outreach workflows

# Actor input Schema
