TikTok Playlist Scraper

List every public playlist on any TikTok account, with names, video counts, covers and direct links.

Give it a handle. Get one row per playlist, ready for CSV or Excel.

What this returns, and what it does not

This returns playlist metadata: name, ID, video count, cover image, playlist URL and creator details.

It does not return the videos inside each playlist. TikTok exposes no public route to playlist contents, and individual video records carry no playlist membership, so the two cannot be joined afterwards. If you need the videos themselves, use the TikTok Profile Videos or Search scrapers and filter from there.

Saying so here rather than letting you discover it in a run.

Why Use This Scraper

Playlists are how creators and brands organise a channel, so the list of them is a fast read on content strategy: which themes an account commits to, how many videos each theme carries, and which series are being built out.

Useful when you want that across many accounts at once rather than clicking through profiles.

Supported Inputs

Input	Example
Bare handle	gymshark
With the @	@gymshark
Profile URL	https://www.tiktok.com/@gymshark

Many accounts in one run.

Use Cases

Competitor content audits, where you compare how rival brands structure their channels.

Creator vetting before a partnership, to see whether an account maintains organised series or posts ad hoc.

Content planning, using video counts per playlist as a signal of what an account invests in.

Channel monitoring, by rerunning and diffing to catch new playlists as they launch.

How It Works

Each handle is normalized, then its playlists are read one page at a time until the account runs out. Pages are deduplicated by playlist ID. An account with no public playlists returns a single explanatory row rather than nothing at all.

Input Configuration

Field	Type	Default	Description
handles	array	required	Usernames or profile URLs.
maxPlaylistsPerHandle	integer	200	Stop after this many playlists per account.
includeCreator	boolean	true	Add creator ID, nickname, avatar and private flag.

Minimal input

{
  "handles": ["@gymshark"]
}

FAQ

Can I get the videos in a playlist? No, and no TikTok scraper can through the public API. See the section at the top.

Do I need a login or cookies? No.

What if an account has no playlists? You get one row saying so. Most accounts do not use playlists at all.

Why is videoCount sometimes higher than what I can see? It counts everything the creator added, including videos since made private or deleted.

What does it cost? One charge per playlist returned, plus a small per-run start fee. No subscription.

🤖 For AI Agents & LLM Apps

Purpose: Return the public playlists of TikTok accounts, as metadata. Playlist contents are not retrievable through TikTok's public API.

Minimal tested input:

{ "handles": ["@gymshark"] }

Output: array of flat objects, one per playlist. Fields: handle, playlistId, playlistName, videoCount, playlistUrl, coverUrl, scrapedAt. With includeCreator: creatorId, creatorNickname, creatorAvatarUrl, creatorPrivate.

Critical for agents: do not expect video lists. videoCount is a count, not an array, and there is no field holding the playlist's videos. Handles with no public playlists return one row carrying error and message instead.

Behavior & billing: Pay-per-event, one charge per playlist returned. Unknown handles and accounts without playlists yield one error item each rather than failing the run. No login or cookies required.
