📦 Saved photos and source details

What each row contains

Each dataset row is one unique photo that was downloaded and saved. Each saved photo has one matching downloadUrl for its stored file. If the same TikTok post is submitted more than once, the Actor keeps the first saved match and ignores later references. It keeps the submitted reference, resolved post link, post ID, photo position, saved-file link, file properties, source image link, creator and caption data, public post counts, sound details, and custom data when provided. TikTok may leave optional values null. The Actor does not save a failure row for a skipped link or photo that could not be downloaded.

❓ FAQ

What happens if a slideshow has fewer photos than my limit?

The Actor saves the available photos and moves on. If you leave maxItems empty, it returns all available results until the source is exhausted.

Can I use a short-share link or a numeric post ID?

Yes. The Actor follows supported short-share links first. The final target must be a public TikTok /photo/ post. Numeric post IDs that identify public photo posts are also accepted.

Can I process several posts in one run?

Yes. Add up to 500 known public slideshow references. The maxItems limit controls the total saved photos across the run.

What does one dataset row represent?

One row represents one unique photo that was downloaded and saved. It includes one matching downloadUrl, the photo order, source post details, and available public metadata. If the same source post appears again through another submitted reference, the later match is ignored.

What happens if a run is resumed?

Previously saved photos remain available. Each unique saved photo has one dataset row with its matching downloadUrl, and the completion summary matches the number of unique saved photos.

Does it download normal TikTok videos or audio?

No. It downloads images from public TikTok photo and slideshow posts. It does not download video, standalone audio, or cover files.

Can I use it as a TikTok slideshow downloader without watermark?

No. It saves the slideshow images TikTok makes available. It does not edit, upscale, or remove marks from an image, and it does not promise HD or 4K output.

Do I need a TikTok account or API key?

No. Use public photo posts without a customer-provided source credential. Private, deleted, unavailable, region-limited, and login-only posts are not supported.

Can it find slideshow posts for me?

No. You must give it known post links or IDs. It does not search profiles, hashtags, feeds, comments, shops, or trends.

What if a link or photo is unavailable?

The Actor skips it and continues with the remaining eligible work. It does not save a failure row. Public data and downloadable images can vary based on what TikTok provides at run time.
