## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

### TikTok Repost Tracker: New & Deleted Reposts

> **Watches any TikTok account's reposts 24/7.** Get instant alerts when creators repost a new video and catch when they secretly un-repost or remove one.

***

#### What It Does

- 🎯 **Audits Top 150 Reposts:** Automatically maintains a rolling memory window of the creator's top 150 most recent reposts to detect newly shared videos and quiet removals.
- 🔁 **New Repost Alerts:** Get notified the second a creator reposts any video on TikTok. Includes direct link, caption, cover thumbnail, and original creator.
- 🕵️ **Catches Secret Un-Reposts:** If a creator quietly removes a video they reposted, you get an alert showing what they removed.
- 🔍 **Smart Verification:** Checks if the user intentionally un-reposted the video or if the original creator took it down.
- 🔒 **Privacy Detection:** Alerts if an account turns their profile private or reactivates.
- 👥 **Tracks Up to 15 Accounts:** Monitor multiple creators in one task (e.g. `mrbeast, khaby.lame`).

***

#### 💎 Simple Flat Pricing ($0.0007 per Check)

Flat, predictable developer pricing with **zero result fees**. You only pay for the check — all repost alerts and un-repost detections are included for free.

| Item | Price |
| :--- | :--- |
| **Account Check** | **$0.0007** per account checked (~$0.70 per 1,000 checks) |
| **Secret Un-Repost Detection** | **$0.00 (FREE)** |
| **New Repost Alerts** | **$0.00 (FREE)** |
| **Privacy & Status Alerts** | **$0.00 (FREE)** |

##### Monthly Cost Scenarios (Developer Fee):

- **Checking 1 creator every 15 minutes:** **$2.01 / month** (regardless of how many reposts they share or remove).
- **Checking 1 creator every 30 minutes:** **$1.00 / month**.
- **Checking 5 creators every 15 minutes:** **$10.08 / month**.

> 💡 **Platform Usage Transparency:**\
> This Actor stores only lightweight state metadata (~25 KB) in your Key-Value Store. It does not store large video files, so storage usage is practically zero and remains well within Apify's free storage allowance. Runs use standard minimal Apify compute (~1–2 seconds on 128MB RAM).

***

#### How to Use

1. **Enter Username(s):** Type any TikTok username (e.g. `mrbeast` or a list separated by commas).
2. **Click Start:** Run it once to save the initial snapshot, then schedule it to run automatically every 5, 15, or 30 minutes.
3. **Get Alerts:** Receive notifications via Email, Slack, Discord, or Webhooks whenever a repost is added or removed.

***

#### Sample Alert Output

When a creator un-reposts a video, you receive full details in your dataset:

```json
{
  "eventType": "REPOST_REMOVED",
  "username": "mrbeast",
  "videoId": "7392819283719",
  "originalAuthor": "creator_handle",
  "unrepostReason": "USER_UNREPOSTED_INTENTIONALLY",
  "caption": "Check this out! 🔥",
  "videoUrl": "https://www.tiktok.com/@creator_handle/video/7392819283719",
  "summary": "🚨 UN-REPOSTED: @mrbeast removed their repost of video by @creator_handle. Original video is still live!",
  "detectedAt": "2026-11-04T12:00:00.000Z"
}
```

# Actor input Schema

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

One or multiple TikTok usernames to monitor (separated by commas or newlines, up to 15 handles per task, e.g. khaby.lame, mrbeast).

## `onlyReportUnreposts` (type: `boolean`):

If checked, the actor suppresses routine new repost alerts and only records when a repost is removed. By default (unchecked), you receive real-time alerts on both NEW reposts and DELETED reposts.

## `verifyOriginalCreator` (type: `boolean`):

When a repost disappears, automatically ping the original video to determine if the user intentionally un-reposted it or if the creator deleted their video from TikTok.

## `resetBaseline` (type: `boolean`):

Clear previously stored memory and re-seed a fresh baseline snapshot for the specified accounts.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "username": "mrbeast",
  "onlyReportUnreposts": false,
  "verifyOriginalCreator": true,
  "resetBaseline": false
}
```

# 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": "mrbeast"
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("socialwatchdog/tiktok-repost-tracker").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);
});

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

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("socialwatchdog/tiktok-repost-tracker").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():

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "username": "mrbeast"
}' |
apify call socialwatchdog/tiktok-repost-tracker --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

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

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).
