Images, tags and other lists stay with their parent result instead of creating extra rows. Invalid or unavailable inputs, inputs with no results, and requests that fail after all retries produce a row with status: failed. At most one failed row is saved per input; it includes error_code and error_message explaining the outcome. A normal end of pagination after collected results does not add a failed row.

Input requirements and collection settings ⚙️

Setting	What to enter
What to collect (mode)	Choose the information to collect.
Maximum results per search or link (maxResults)	Collect up to this many results for each search or link. Minimum: 1.

Collection mode	Fields to use
Live Streams	Set the maximum results and start.
Profile	Profile links

The result limit applies separately to each search or supplied link. Collection ends earlier when no more matching results are available.

BIGO LIVE scraping use cases 🎯

Streamer discovery

Identify active creators and review their room topics before partnership outreach.

Regional market research

Compare public country labels and visible live activity across the collected rooms.

Live audience snapshots

Record current room viewer counts for later comparison with another run.

Creator qualification

Compare biographies, follower counts and live status for selected BIGO creators.

Content category research

Review room titles and topics to understand the broadcasts visible at collection time.

Pricing and saved-result behavior 💰

See the Actor's Pricing tab for the active pricing model and current rate. Store settings may change, so this README does not claim a fixed cost.

Under dataset-item pricing:

• Each collected item saved in the dataset is one result.
• Images, tags and other values attached to that item do not create additional rows.
• Automatic retry attempts do not create extra dataset rows.
• A saved failed row is also one billable dataset item, including invalid inputs, unavailable items, no results, or exhausted retries. At most one failed row is saved per input, including when some results were already collected.
• maxResults caps all saved rows for each input, including its failed row. Repeated copies of the same input are processed once. More inputs or a higher limit can produce more saved results.

BIGO LIVE scraper API and integrations 🔌

Replace $ACTOR_ID with the ID shown in the Actor API tab and $APIFY_TOKEN with your token.

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/$ACTOR_ID/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"mode":"streams","maxResults":10}'

Use schedules for recurring collection, webhooks for completion notifications, and Apify integrations for Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, cloud storage, a CRM or your own application.

Reliability, retries, and public-data limits ⚠️

Temporary connection errors, timeouts and access restrictions are retried automatically, up to five attempts. Invalid inputs save a failed row without an HTTP request; confirmed unavailable items save a failed row without unnecessary retries. Exhausted retries also save a failed row. Results already collected remain available if a later request fails, and normal pagination completion adds no error row. Collection also stops after two consecutive fully processed pages add no new results, even if the website provides another cursor. Required detail lookups are completed before checking a page; new results reset the counter, and independent reply branches are checked separately. Failures while initializing the Actor, saving data or scheduling requests stop the run instead of being reported as a failed website result.

Live rooms and viewer counts are snapshots taken during the run; ended streams may no longer appear.

BIGO LIVE controls which information is publicly available. Removed, private or restricted items may be unavailable, and optional values can be null or empty. A run can still fail if the results cannot be saved.

Frequently asked questions ❓

Does it require an account on BIGO LIVE?

No. You do not need to provide an account, password or login cookies. Only publicly available information is collected.

How does maxResults work?

It limits the number of saved results separately for every input. The minimum is 1. With maxResults set to 10, each input returns at most 10 available results. A detail lookup normally returns one record per input.

Can I discover creators who are live now?

Streams lists the current public rooms exposed by BIGO, including creator IDs and room topics.

Does it provide follower lists?

No. Profile mode provides visible follower and following totals, not individual follower lists.

Why are some fields empty?

The website may not publish that value, or the field may belong to a different collection mode. Missing values remain null or empty instead of being guessed.

Can I export the results to a spreadsheet?

Yes. Download CSV, Excel or JSON from the Apify dataset. All returned fields are included in the same results table.

Support and responsible use 🛟

For a reproducible issue, share the run ID, selected mode, result limit and a safe public example through the support channel. Never disclose access tokens, passwords or proxy credentials.

Use public BIGO LIVE information lawfully and responsibly. Follow applicable privacy, copyright, data-protection, contractual and platform requirements when storing, analyzing or redistributing results.
