# Track what beauty brands post on TikTok, with views and likes

**Use case:** 

Collects the latest 10 to 12 videos of three beauty brands on TikTok with caption, hashtags, post date, plays, likes, comments, shares, saves and sound, and marks pinned videos. Brand and influencer marketers use it to see which formats and sounds competitors use and how they perform. TikTok's public profile shows only the latest videos, so schedule it to build a history.

## About this Actor

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

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 full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/stratumics/tiktok-scraper.md

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`).
