❓ FAQ

Q: Do I need a TikTok / Douyin / Bilibili account? No. The actor scrapes public data using the built-in Apify proxy. No login required.

Q: Do no-watermark MP4 URLs expire? Yes, TikTok and Douyin CDN URLs expire in a few hours. Download and store the file promptly.

Q: Can I scrape private accounts? No — only public content is supported. For some gated endpoints (private collections, saved videos, TikTok comments), you may pass your browser cookie via the cookie field.

Q: TikTok comments mode returns 0 results? TikTok's comment API requires a logged-in session. Paste a fresh TikTok browser cookie into the cookie input field. Videos, profiles, and posts work without a cookie; comments need one.

Q: Will one URL appear in my output multiple times? No — each URL produces a single row (or a single error row).

Q: What happens if a URL is deleted or region-blocked? You'll get an error row with item_type: "error" and a human-readable error_message. You are not charged for error rows.

Q: Can I run this with my own proxy instead of Apify proxy? Yes — set custom proxy URLs in proxyConfiguration.proxyUrls.

Q: Does the actor handle bulk scraping efficiently? Yes — URLs are processed concurrently. 100 URLs typically finish in 2–3 minutes.

Q: What's the maximum URLs per run? There's no hard limit, but we recommend ≤ 500 URLs per run for optimal reliability. Split larger jobs into multiple runs for parallelism.

🆘 Troubleshooting

No results for a TikTok URL The video may be deleted, private, or region-blocked. Check the URL in a browser first. Error rows include a status message explaining why.

"Spending limit reached" You set ACTOR_MAX_TOTAL_CHARGE_USD and the run hit the cap mid-batch. Remaining URLs are skipped and marked as error rows. Increase the cap or split the batch.

Empty dataset on first run Make sure mode is set and that url/urls match the mode's expected input (e.g. video URL for video_detail, profile URL for user_posts).

Bilibili returns 404 The BV-id may be invalid or deleted. Short links like b23.tv/xxx are auto-resolved.

If something's not working, open the run → view the log → attach the run URL when reaching out. The actor auto-populates error rows with context, so paste those too.

Happy scraping. 🚀
