2  "success": true,
3  "format": "text",
4  "subtitle": "This is the extracted subtitle text from the TikTok video...",
5  "availableLanguages": [
6    {

🔄 How It Works

  1. The Actor fetches the TikTok video page using the provided URL
  2. It extracts subtitle information from the page metadata
  3. The subtitle content is downloaded and processed according to the selected format
  4. Results are saved to the Apify dataset with metadata about available languages

💡 Tips for Best Results

  • Always use the direct video URL from TikTok (formats like https://www.tiktok.com/@username/video/1234567890123456789)
  • If you're not getting results, check if the video actually has captions/subtitles enabled
  • For videos with multiple language options, you can specify the exact language code after an initial run

🔒 Limitations

  • Works only with public TikTok videos that have captions enabled
  • Subject to TikTok's platform changes - will be regularly updated to maintain compatibility
  • Rate limiting may apply based on TikTok's policies

👨‍💻 Technical Details

This Actor uses modern JavaScript with Axios for HTTP requests and careful parsing of TikTok's response structure. It handles various TikTok URL formats and provides appropriate error messages for invalid inputs or missing subtitles.
