Works with Make, Zapier, n8n, Apify webhooks, and scheduled runs.

❓ Common questions

• Do I need a Social Fetch API key? No — your Apify token is enough. Never paste an sfk_ key into Actor input.
• Why was I charged for not_found? The lookup completed, but TikTok did not return that profile, video, or post. That still counts as a billable dataset row.
• How does billing work? One dataset row per comment returned. The run stops at the global row cap across all video URLs.
