## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. 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.

# README

## TikTok Shop Shoppable Video & Creative Finder

Find public TikTok videos connected to TikTok Shop products and turn them into structured creative intelligence.

Each dataset row represents one public `video → product` association. The Actor returns public performance metrics, creator and product context, caption-derived hooks, calls to action, formats, angles, and a transparent creative score.

### What you can do

- find public videos for one or more TikTok Shop product URLs;
- discover products by niche and inspect their public video creatives;
- compare views, likes, comments, shares, and engagement rate;
- extract caption hashtags and deterministic hook/CTA patterns;
- identify caption-derived formats such as demonstration, tutorial, comparison, testimonial, unboxing, problem/solution, or deal promotion;
- rank creative leads by score, views, engagement, recency, or product sales;
- export results as JSON, CSV, Excel, API output, or MCP tool results.

### Evidence boundaries

The Actor does not invent product attribution or claim to understand video frames it did not inspect.

- `DIRECT_PRODUCT_MATCH` / `HIGH`: structured public video data references the product ID.
- `PRODUCT_PAGE_CONTEXT` / `MEDIUM`: the video was exposed in public product-page context.
- `SEARCH_QUERY_CONTEXT` / `LOW`: a relevant public video was discovered through indexed/public search context. Treat it as a creative lead, not confirmed shoppable or affiliate attribution.

Hook, CTA, format, and angle fields are deterministic signals from public caption/indexed text. They are not frame, audio, transcript, or conversion analysis.

### Input example

```json
{
  "productUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://shop.tiktok.com/us/pdp/hpbs-24000mah-power-bank-6000a-jump-starter-150psi-inflate/1731973421800919262"
    }
  ],
  "searchQueries": [],
  "region": "US",
  "maxProductsPerQuery": 1,
  "maxCreativesPerProduct": 10,
  "maxBrowserRequests": 20,
  "minVideoViews": 0,
  "searchPublicTikTokVideos": true,
  "sortBy": "CREATIVE_SCORE",
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
    "apifyProxyCountry": "US"
  },
  "maxConcurrency": 2,
  "navigationTimeoutSecs": 45,
  "includeRawData": false,
  "includeSearchFallbacks": false
}
```

Provide at least one `productUrls` entry or one `searchQueries` value.

### Output example

```json
{
  "creativeId": "7652247745117359382:1729545068746215852",
  "videoId": "7652247745117359382",
  "videoUrl": "https://www.tiktok.com/@creator/video/7652247745117359382",
  "caption": "Flat tire? Here is how this portable inflator works. Get yours today.",
  "views": 10000,
  "likes": 500,
  "comments": 25,
  "shares": 10,
  "engagementRate": 5.35,
  "creatorUsername": "creator",
  "productId": "1729545068746215852",
  "productName": "Portable Car Jump Starter With Air Compressor",
  "associationState": "SEARCH_QUERY_CONTEXT",
  "associationConfidence": "LOW",
  "hookTypes": ["QUESTION"],
  "ctaTypes": ["SHOP_NOW"],
  "formatSignals": ["PRODUCT_DEMONSTRATION", "PROBLEM_SOLUTION"],
  "creativeAngles": ["CONVENIENCE"],
  "creativeScore": 52.4,
  "creativeSignals": [
    "Strong engagement rate",
    "Caption hook: QUESTION",
    "Caption CTA: SHOP_NOW",
    "Search-context lead — product association is not confirmed"
  ]
}
```

Missing public metrics remain `null`. `UNDETECTED` means the public caption did not provide enough text evidence for that signal.

### Creative score

`creativeScore` is a deterministic 0–100 ranking signal based on:

- public reach and engagement volume;
- engagement rate;
- recency when the publication time is available;
- product association strength;
- presence of caption hook, CTA, format, and hashtag evidence;
- public product opportunity score.

It is not a prediction of revenue, conversions, or future virality.

### Dataset views

- **Creative opportunities** — compact ranking for research and outreach.
- **Creative evidence** — detailed metrics, association evidence, and caption-derived signals.

### MCP and API

The Actor is compatible with Apify API clients and Apify's hosted MCP endpoint. Agent-facing guidance:

- use this Actor when the user asks for specific videos, creative examples, hooks, CTAs, formats, or ad inspiration;
- use the Affiliate Creator Finder when the goal is creator discovery and profile-level outreach;
- do not describe `SEARCH_QUERY_CONTEXT` as confirmed product or affiliate attribution;
- do not start parallel or replacement runs unless the user explicitly requests them.

The default dataset is available at:

```text
https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/{DATASET_ID}/items
```

The run summary is stored in the default key-value store under `OUTPUT`.

### Resource controls

- `maxBrowserRequests` is a hard browser-page budget;
- `maxConcurrency` is capped at 2;
- US residential access is recommended for geo-sensitive TikTok Shop pages;
- the Actor uses no external data APIs and calls no external Actors.

### Limitations

- TikTok Shop availability and public payloads vary by region and session;
- public video metrics can change after extraction;
- deleted, private, restricted, or non-indexed videos cannot be returned;
- search-context associations require human verification;
- this release analyzes public caption text and metadata, not video frames, speech, audio, or comments;
- the Actor does not calculate sales attribution or creator commission.

### Privacy and responsible use

The Actor processes public pages and public metadata. Use results lawfully, respect platform rules, and verify creator/product associations before outreach or publication.

        }
    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
