Use Apify Actor parsebird/tiktok-trends-scraper to get TikTok trends by country. Example with ApifyClient (Python): client.actor("parsebird/tiktok-trends-scraper").call(run_input={"trendType":"hashtag","countryCode":"US","period":7,"maxResults":50}). Inputs: trendType "hashtag" | "sound" | "creator" | "video" (default hashtag); countryCode two-letter code (default US; hashtags cover AE, AR, AU, BR, CA, CO, DE, EG, ES, FR, GB, ID, IL, IT, JP, KR, MX, MY, PH, SA, SG, TH, TR, TW, US, VN, ZA); period integer 7 | 30 | 90 days (default 7; 120 is treated as 90; top videos use 7 or 30); maxResults integer 1-100 (default 30). Sources: hashtags = TikTok Creative Center formal ranking; videos = Creative Center ranking for US, JP, VN, TH, ID, TikTok Explore elsewhere; sounds and creators = TikTok Explore via a residential IP in the country. Every row has rank, source (tiktok_creative_center | tiktok_explore), rankingScope (country_period | country_period_industry | country_period_segment | source_order), isFormalRanking, type, name, countryCode, period (null for Explore), scrapedAt. Hashtag rows add hashtagId, publishedVideoCount, videoViews, trend (rising/falling/stable), trendCurve[{date,value}], industry, industries[], sourceRank, topCreators[], hashtagUrl. Video rows add videoId, videoUrl, videoCoverUrl, videoDesc, hashtags[], createdAt, playCount, plus playCountLifetime, organicPlayCount, engagementRate, sixSecondViewRate, authorFollowers, contentCategory, rankedBy for Creative Center, or likeCountVideo, commentCount, shareCount, saveCount, soundName, soundId, durationSeconds for Explore; authorHandle, authorName. Sound rows add soundId, soundAuthor, soundCover, soundPlayUrl, duration, isOriginal, isCommercialMusic, linkedVideoUrl, videosInSample, sampleVideoUrl. Creator rows add creatorId, creatorHandle, creatorAvatarUrl, creatorProfileUrl, verified, bio, followerCount, likeCount, videoCount, videosInSample, sampleVideoUrl.

What is TikTok Trends Scraper?

TikTok Trends Scraper is a TikTok trends API alternative. It returns trending TikTok hashtags with post counts, views, and a daily popularity curve, top TikTok videos with plays and engagement, and the sounds and creators TikTok Explore is showing people in a country right now.

You don't need a TikTok account, cookies, or an API key. The easiest way to try it is to open the actor, keep the prefilled hashtags, US, last 7 days input, and click Start. A hashtag run takes a few seconds.

Every row says where it came from. isFormalRanking: true rows come from TikTok Creative Center's country and period rankings. isFormalRanking: false rows come from the TikTok Explore feed, in the order TikTok showed them, which is a discovery feed rather than a ranked chart.

Python API example

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")

run = client.actor("parsebird/tiktok-trends-scraper").call(run_input={
    "trendType": "hashtag",
    "countryCode": "GB",
    "period": 30,
    "maxResults": 50,
})

for tag in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(tag["rank"], tag["name"], tag["trend"], tag["videoViews"], tag.get("industry"))

JavaScript API example

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN' });

const run = await client.actor('parsebird/tiktok-trends-scraper').call({
    trendType: 'sound',
    countryCode: 'US',
    maxResults: 50,
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
const licensed = items.filter((s) => !s.isOriginal);
console.log(licensed.map((s) => `${s.name} by ${s.soundAuthor}`));

Use cases

• Content planning: pick rising hashtags in your market before they peak.
• Market research: compare trending hashtags and top videos across countries and industries.
• Influencer discovery: collect creators TikTok is surfacing in a country, with follower counts.
• Sound research: find which sounds are showing up in a country's Explore feed.
• Trend dashboards: schedule daily runs and send results to Google Sheets or your database.

How it works

1. Hashtags: the actor reads TikTok Creative Center's hashtag ranking for your country and period. Creative Center shows 3 hashtags per list to visitors who aren't logged in, so the actor also reads the ranking for each of Creative Center's industries and removes duplicates. The first 3 rows are the overall ranking (country_period); the rest are industry rankings (country_period_industry, with industry set).
2. Top videos (US, JP, VN, TH, ID): the actor reads Creative Center's top-video ranking by views, engagement rate, and 6-second view rate, overall and for organic videos (country_period), and then by content category (country_period_segment, with contentCategory set).
3. Sounds, creators, and other videos: the actor opens TikTok Explore through an Apify residential IP in your country and reads the feed until it has enough unique results. Sounds and creators are taken from the videos in the feed. videosInSample shows how many feed videos used that sound or creator.

How much does it cost to scrape TikTok trends?

What is the price per TikTok trend?

The actor uses pay-per-event pricing: you pay per trend saved, and platform usage is included.

Event	Free plan	Bronze	Silver	Gold
trend-scraped	$0.00099 ($0.99 / 1,000)	$0.00089 ($0.89 / 1,000)	$0.00069 ($0.69 / 1,000)	$0.00049 ($0.49 / 1,000)

One trend-scraped event is one hashtag, sound, creator, or video saved to the dataset. The prefilled 20-hashtag test costs about $0.02 on the Free plan, and 100 trends cost about $0.10. Apify's free plan includes monthly platform credits you can use to try the actor.

Is it legal to scrape TikTok trends?

Is scraping TikTok trend data legal?

The actor reads only data that TikTok Creative Center and TikTok Explore show publicly to visitors who aren't logged in. Scraping public data is generally legal in many jurisdictions, but creator profiles contain personal data protected by laws such as GDPR and CCPA, and videos and sounds are protected by copyright. Collect only what you need, respect TikTok's Terms of Service, and consult your lawyer if unsure. Read more in Apify's guide: Is web scraping legal?

FAQ

How many hashtags can I get? About 55 to 60 per country and period in our tests. Creative Center shows 3 hashtags per list without login; the actor combines the overall list with 21 industry lists. If you ask for more, the status message tells you how many TikTok returned.

Which countries are supported? Hashtags: AE, AR, AU, BR, CA, CO, DE, EG, ES, FR, GB, ID, IL, IT, JP, KR, MX, MY, PH, SA, SG, TH, TR, TW, US, VN, and ZA, which is Creative Center's hashtag list. Top videos from Creative Center: US, JP, VN, TH, and ID. Sounds, creators, and other videos come from TikTok Explore and work for countries where TikTok is available. TikTok isn't available in India, so Explore runs for IN fail with a clear message.

Why are sounds and creators not a formal ranking? TikTok Creative Center no longer publishes sound or creator charts. The actor uses the TikTok Explore feed instead and marks those rows rankingScope: "source_order" and isFormalRanking: false. Explore is personalized and shaped by location, and it also mixes in popular videos from other countries, so two runs can return different results.

Why are so many sounds called "original sound"? Most videos in TikTok Explore use the creator's own audio, which TikTok names "original sound". Filter on isOriginal: false to keep licensed tracks only.

Why is period null for some rows? Explore has no time window, so rows from Explore have period: null. Creative Center rows show the window the ranking covers.

Can I use period 120? Creative Center now offers 7, 30, and 90 days for hashtags, so 120 is treated as 90. Top videos offer 7 and 30 days, so 90 uses 30. The run log says when this happens.

How is trend calculated? From Creative Center's daily popularity curve for the hashtag: rising if the last day is at least 10% above the first, falling if at least 10% below, otherwise stable. A curve that starts at 0 and ends above 0 counts as rising.

Can I schedule runs or use the API? Yes. Use Apify schedules for recurring runs, and the API tab on the actor page for endpoints and client code.

Where can I report issues? Open the Issues tab on the actor page with your input and run ID.
