## 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 Followers Scraper

Extract the full followers list of any public TikTok profile — username, nickname, verification status, bio, and engagement stats for every follower. No login required.

### What you get

- Username, nickname, verification status, and profile picture for every follower
- Follower/following counts, heart count, and video count for each follower account
- Paginated output: each run returns a cursor so you can fetch millions of followers across multiple runs
- Export to JSON, CSV, or Google Sheets directly from the Apify console

### Use cases

- Audience research and competitive analysis
- Lead generation — find and qualify an account's real audience
- Influencer vetting — sanity-check follower quality behind a follower count
- Community and fan analysis for creators and brands

### How to use

1. Enter the TikTok username (with or without @)
2. Set **Max Followers** (default 1000 per run; set 0 for unlimited)
3. Run the actor — results appear in the **Dataset** tab
4. To fetch the next page, open the **Key-value store** tab, copy the `NEXT_PAGE_ID` value, and paste it into **Page ID** on your next run. If `NEXT_PAGE_ID` is `null`, you've fetched everyone.

### Output format

Each dataset record is one follower:

```json
{
  "userId": "267488256756457472",
  "username": "xeena74",
  "nickname": "nicole",
  "isVerified": false,
  "isPrivate": false,
  "secUid": "MS4wLjABAAAA...",
  "avatarUrl": "https://...",
  "signature": "bio text",
  "bioLink": "",
  "profileUrl": "https://www.tiktok.com/@xeena74",
  "followerCount": 1163,
  "followingCount": 652,
  "heartCount": 13200,
  "videoCount": 21
}
```

# Actor input Schema

## `username` (type: `string`):

The TikTok username whose followers you want to scrape. Accepts usernames with or without the leading @.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of followers to return per run. Set to 0 for unlimited (fetches all pages up to the actor timeout).

## `pageId` (type: `string`):

Paste NEXT\_PAGE\_ID from the previous run's Key-value store to fetch the next page of followers.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "username": "zachking",
  "maxItems": 1000
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `results` (type: `string`):

One follower per record: userId, username, nickname, isVerified, isPrivate, secUid, avatarUrl, signature, bioLink, profileUrl, followerCount, followingCount, heartCount, videoCount.

## `nextPageId` (type: `string`):

NEXT\_PAGE\_ID record in the default key-value store. Paste into Page ID on the next run to resume; null when the list is exhausted.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "username": "zachking"
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("seemuapps/tiktok-followers-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = { "username": "zachking" }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("seemuapps/tiktok-followers-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "username": "zachking"
}' |
apify call seemuapps/tiktok-followers-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,seemuapps/tiktok-followers-scraper"
        }
    }
}

```

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).
