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.

TikTok Followers & Following Scraper

**Scrape the followers, following, or suggested accounts of any public TikTok profile — no login, no cookies, zero risk to your own account.** Paste one or more usernames and get back every account with username, nickname, bio, verification status, avatar, profile URL, **and its own follower / following / like / video counts** on every row. From **$0.99 per 1,000 results**. Export as JSON, CSV, or Excel. ### Why Use This Scraper? - **Zero account risk** — you never hand over TikTok cookies or log in, so your account can't be flagged, throttled, or banned. Cookie-based scrapers make *you* supply a session and take that risk; this one never does. - **No TikTok account needed** — nothing to configure, no 2FA, no checkpoints. - **Three lists in one Actor** — followers, following, and TikTok's suggested/similar accounts, selected per run. - **Stats on every row** — each follower comes with its own follower, following, like, and video counts. Vet audience quality or rank accounts by size without paying for a separate profile lookup per account. - **Complete lists** — walks the entire follower list cursor by cursor, not just the first page. - **Multiple profiles per run** — pass a whole list of usernames; every row is tagged with its source account. - **Clean, flat output** — one row per account, tagged with its list `type`, ready for CRM import, influencer analysis, or network graphs. ### Overview This Actor returns **one dataset row per account** in the requested list(s). For each input username it first resolves the profile, then walks the requested lists page by page. It does **not** return the input user's own profile — it returns the accounts in their lists. Data is retrieved through a third-party TikTok data provider, so no TikTok credentials are ever required. ### Supported Inputs | Input | What you get | |---|---| | A single username (e.g. `tiktok`) | Its followers, following, and/or suggested list, per `dataToScrape` | | Multiple usernames | Lists for all of them in one run, each row tagged by `sourceUsername` and `type` | - Handles are accepted with or without the leading `@`, and full profile URLs work too — `https://www.tiktok.com/@tiktok`, `tiktok.com/@tiktok/`, or the mobile `m.tiktok.com` variant, with or without query parameters. - **Not supported:** private accounts (their lists aren't public — the Actor returns an error item for them), video URLs, tag URLs. > Pure HTTP. No browser, no CAPTCHA solver, no cookies. ### Use Cases | Audience | How they use it | |---|---| | Influencer marketers | Vet a creator's audience quality — the per-follower stats expose bot-heavy or dormant followings at a glance | | Growth / social teams | Build lookalike audiences from a competitor's followers, or mine TikTok's own suggested accounts for adjacent creators | | Researchers / OSINT | Reconstruct interest and affiliation networks from public follows | | Sales / lead gen | Surface brands and creators a target account follows, pre-ranked by their own audience size | ### How It Works

How the TikTok Followers & Following Scraper works

1. **Resolve** — each input username is looked up to get its secure ID and follower/following counts. 2. **Paginate** — each requested list is walked cursor by cursor until complete (or until your cap). 3. **Emit** — every account is pushed to the dataset as its own row with full stats, tagged with `sourceUsername` and `type` so multi-user, multi-list runs stay separable. ### Input Configuration | Field | Type | Required | Notes | |---|---|---|---| | `usernames` | array of strings | Yes | Public usernames to scrape, with or without `@`, or profile URLs. | | `dataToScrape` | string | No | Dropdown: `followers`, `following`, `suggested`, or `all`. Default: `followers`. | | `maxResultsPerUser` | integer | No | Cap results per username per list. Omit for complete lists. | #### Example input ```json { "usernames": ["tiktok", "https://www.tiktok.com/@charlidamelio"], "dataToScrape": "all", "maxResultsPerUser": 500 } ``` ### Output Overview Each item is a flat object describing one account in a requested list, tagged with `type` (`follower`, `following`, or `suggested`) and carrying that account's own public stats. Runs stream to the default dataset, exportable as JSON, CSV, Excel, or via the API. ### Output Samples ```json { "sourceUsername": "tiktok", "type": "follower", "userId": "7367771871134336008", "secUid": "MS4wLjABAAAAManI9wSQacyQasJwwc-qc2k9H9Ayc2B5AGyhupxb1mfp...", "username": "khoanho1009", "nickname": "khoa nhỏ", "bio": "", "isVerified": false, "isPrivate": false, "avatarUrl": "https://p16-common-sign.tiktokcdn-us.com/tos-alisg-avt-0068/...", "profileUrl": "https://www.tiktok.com/@khoanho1009", "followerCount": 460, "followingCount": 3189, "likeCount": 5796, "videoCount": 0 } ``` ### Key Output Fields | Field | Description | |---|---| | `sourceUsername` | The input account this row came from | | `type` | `follower`, `following`, or `suggested` — which list the row belongs to | | `userId` / `secUid` | TikTok's numeric and secure IDs of the listed account | | `username` / `nickname` | Handle and display name of the listed account | | `bio` | Profile signature text (may be empty) | | `isVerified` / `isPrivate` | Verification badge and privacy flag | | `avatarUrl` / `profileUrl` | Profile picture and direct TikTok profile link | | `followerCount` / `followingCount` | The listed account's own audience counters | | `likeCount` / `videoCount` | Total likes received and videos posted by the listed account | ### FAQ **Do I need to provide my TikTok cookies or log in?** No. This Actor never asks for cookies, passwords, or a session — that's the point. Cookie-based scrapers advertise a lower headline price but require *you* to paste your own TikTok session, which puts your account at risk. Here your account stays completely out of it. **Does it work on private accounts?** Only public accounts. A private account's lists aren't public, so the Actor emits an error item for it and continues with your other usernames. **What if an account hides its lists?** TikTok lets users hide their following list even on public profiles. When a list is hidden, the Actor emits a `list_not_public` error item for that account and list instead of failing the run. **What are "suggested" accounts?** TikTok's own "similar accounts" recommendations for that profile — typically around 30 accounts in a single batch. Useful for finding adjacent creators in the same niche. **How fresh is the data?** Fetched live at run time, including every account's current stats. **What does it cost?** Pay per result: from **$0.99 per 1,000 accounts**, plus a small per-run start fee. No subscription. ### Support Found a bug or need a field added?

Fields: `sourceUsername`, `type`, `userId`, `secUid`, `username`, `nickname`, `bio`, `isVerified`, `isPrivate`, `avatarUrl`, `profileUrl`, `followerCount`, `followingCount`, `likeCount`, `videoCount`. **Behavior & billing:** Pay-per-event — one charge per result.
