TikTok Hashtag Scraper — videos by hashtag

TikTok Hashtag Scraper — videos by hashtag

Give it hashtags. Get one row per video: play count, likes, comments, shares, saves, caption, every hashtag on the post, the sound, the author, and a direct no-watermark link.

No login, no cookies, no browser.

It walks deep, and that is measured

Not every list on TikTok's public surface can be paged far. This one can: six pages returned 104 distinct videos with zero duplicates, the cursor advancing 20 → 40 → 60 → 80 → 100 → 120 with more still available.

So a large maxVideosPerHashtag is honoured rather than quietly capped. Page sizes vary — asking for 20 returned 14, 16, 17 or 20 depending on the page — so the limit counts videos collected, not pages fetched.

A hashtag that does not exist is skipped, not substituted

Searching TikTok for funny also returns #funnyvideos, #funnyvideo and so on. Taking the first result would mean someone who mistyped a hashtag silently receives a different hashtag's videos — we measured exactly that: notarealhashtag99xyz resolved to #notarealhashtag and produced 60 rows of unrelated data.

So an exact name match is required (case is ignored, since TikTok's tag names are lowercase and people type them capitalised). When there is no exact match the run logs TikTok's closest suggestions and moves on:

#notarealhashtag99xyz: no hashtag with that exact name. TikTok's closest were
#notarealhashtag, #notrealhashtag, #notreal — pass one of those if you meant it.

Numeric hashtag IDs are accepted too, if you already have one.

How to use

1. Click Try for free at the top of this page. Apify creates a free account if you do not have one — no card is needed to run this.
2. Put what you want scraped into Hashtags — one per line.
3. Set Max videos per hashtag to bound the run, then press Start. You are billed per row, so this field is also your budget.
4. Rows show up in the Dataset tab while the run is still going. Export to JSON, CSV, Excel or XML from there, or read them over the API.

Input

field
hashtags	required	With or without #. Numeric hashtag IDs also work
maxVideosPerHashtag	100	Stops here, or when the hashtag runs out
includeDownloadUrls	on	No-watermark link per row, free — it is in the same response

Every field, with its default — paste the whole block and delete what you do not need:

{
  "hashtags": [
    "#funny"
  ],
  "maxVideosPerHashtag": 100,
  "includeDownloadUrls": true
}

Output

field
hashtag, hashtagId, hashtagViewCount	the hashtag's own total views, on every row
videoId, url, description, createdAt, durationMs, coverUrl
playCount, likeCount, commentCount, shareCount, saveCount
hashtags[]	every hashtag on the post, not only the one you searched — useful for finding adjacent tags
musicId, musicTitle, musicAuthor
authorUsername, authorNickname, authorId, authorSecUid
noWatermarkUrl, noWatermarkSize	when enabled
isPhotoPost, region

No author follower count. TikTok sends a literal 0 in this list on 119 of 120 rows measured, which cannot be told apart from a creator who genuinely has none — a number that reads like an answer and is not one. Every row carries authorSecUid, so the TikTok Profile Scraper can fill in real follower counts for the creators you care about.

One row, exactly as it lands in your dataset (long signed CDN links shortened here for readability):

Notes

• url is TikTok's own canonical link. A photo post therefore points at /photo/ and a video at /video/, and a row whose author handle is missing gets null rather than a link that would 404.
• No-watermark links are signed TikTok CDN links and expire within hours. If you need the files kept, use the TikTok Video Downloader actor.
• Photo posts (slideshows) appear as rows flagged isPhotoPost; their individual images are in the downloader actor.
• Only public data. There is no login, so nothing hidden from a logged-out visitor is reachable.

Run it from your own code

Every Actor is an API endpoint. This starts a run, waits for it, and returns the rows in one call — swap in your token from Settings → Integrations:

curl -X POST 'https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/mu0i~tiktok-hashtag-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
    "hashtags": [
      "#funny"
    ],
    "maxVideosPerHashtag": 100,
    "includeDownloadUrls": true
  }'

Pricing

Pay per result — you are billed for rows you receive, not for time or compute.

Event	Per 1,000	What one unit is
video	$2.00	one video in the dataset

Paid Apify plans pay less than this. The table above is the free-plan rate. Starter, Scale and Business each get a lower per-unit price — up to 55% off on Business — and the Actor's Pricing tab shows every tier before you run anything.

Starting a run costs $0.00001 — a cent per thousand runs — and there is no run minimum. You are never billed for a run that found nothing. If an input has nothing to collect the run says so in a row of the dataset — never a silently empty result, and never a charge. A run that fails because the data could not be reached fails loudly, because that one is worth retrying.

Related Actors

Fourteen Actors covering the whole public TikTok surface. Same billing rules and the same guarantees throughout: billed once for each row you receive, never billed for a run that found nothing, and told in the dataset why it found nothing.
