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 Playlist Videos Scraper Collect TikTok playlist videos with captions, author profiles, media links, engagement counts, and sound references.

Add each TikTok playlist ID to `playlist_ids`. 2. Set `count` for the number of videos requested per source page. 3. Choose `maxPages` and `maxResults` to limit each run. ```json { "playlist_ids": [ { "mix_id": "7681171537575824159" } ], "count": 10, "maxResults": 20, "maxPages": 1 } ``` ### Input | Field | Type | Required | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `playlist_ids` | Array\ | Yes | TikTok playlist IDs whose videos you want to collect. | | `playlist_ids[].mix_id` | string | Yes per entry | Playlist ID sent to the source search. | | `playlist_ids[].count` | integer | No | Results Per Page sent to the source search. | | `playlist_ids[].cursor` | string | No | Pagination Cursor sent to the source search. | | `count` | integer | No | Results Per Page sent to the source search. | | `cursor` | string | No | Pagination Cursor sent to the source search. | | `maxResults` | integer | No | Maximum dataset items to save across this entire run. | | `maxPages` | integer | No | Maximum pages to request for each batch entry. | ### Output example ```json { "aweme_id": "7419000123456789012", "video_id": "7419000123456789012", "region": "GB", "title": "A simple guide to crisp sourdough at home", "content_desc": [ "field recording", "ambient music" ], "cover": "https://p16-sign.tiktokcdn.com/obj/tos-useast5-p-0068/loaf-cover.jpeg", "ai_dynamic_cover": "https://p16-sign.tiktokcdn.com/obj/tos-useast5-p-0068/loaf-dynamic.jpeg", "origin_cover": "https://p16-sign.tiktokcdn.com/obj/tos-useast5-p-0068/loaf-origin.jpeg", "duration": 36, "play": "https://v16-webapp.tiktok.com/video/loaf-play.mp4", "wmplay": "https://v16-webapp.tiktok.com/video/loaf-watermarked.mp4", "size": 4821032, "wm_size": 4938200, "music": "7418000123456789012", "play_count": 128000, "digg_count": 9800, "comment_count": 310, "share_count": 740, "download_count": 210, "collect_count": 1400, "create_time": 1758205931, "anchors": null, "anchors_extras": "[]", "is_ad": false, "commerce_info": { "auction_ad_invited": false, "with_comment_filter_words": false, "adv_promotable": false, "branded_content_type": 0, "organic_log_extra": "{}", "is_diversion_ad": 0 }, "commercial_video_info": "organic", "item_comment_settings": 0, "mentioned_users": "[]", "author": { "id": "7123456789012345678", "unique_id": "harborbakehouse", "nickname": "Harbor Bakehouse", "avatar": "https://p16-sign.tiktokcdn.com/tos-maliva-avt-0068/harborbakehouse.jpeg" }, "is_nff_or_nr": false, "is_top": 0, "author_id": "7123456789012345678", "author_username": "harborbakehouse", "author_nickname": "Harbor Bakehouse", "author_avatar": "https://p16-sign.tiktokcdn.com/tos-maliva-avt-0068/harborbakehouse.jpeg", "input_mix_id": "7681171537575824159", "scraped_at": "2026-10-01T12:00:00Z" } ``` ### Pricing $0.30 per 1,000 results. Apify saves one dataset item per result and applies the Actorโ€™s per-result price to saved items. Pagination follows the source response. Set **maxPages** per batch entry and **maxResults** across the run. ### FAQ #### Is scraping this information legal? Rules depend on the source, location, data type, and intended use. Check applicable laws and source terms, and make sure your workflow follows privacy and data protection requirements. #### What limits apply? Submit up to 100 batch entries per run. Use **maxResults** to cap saved items and **maxPages** to limit pages for each entry. Results also depend on source availability and your Scrappa API plan. #### Can I start runs through the Apify API? Yes. Send a POST request to `https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/thescrappa~tiktok-playlist-posts-scraper/runs` with your Actor input, or use an Apify client library. Read the output from the run dataset. #### Can I connect the results to other tools? Yes. Apify integrations and APIs can pass dataset results to Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets, and other data workflows. #### What happens when one input fails? The Actor logs a short source error and continues with the remaining entries. Transient rate limits and gateway errors are retried; if every entry fails, the run reports an error. #### How is a playlist ID different from a collection ID? A playlist groups videos through TikTokโ€™s playlist feature, while a collection is a saved set of videos. Use the matching ID and Actor for the URL type. ### Related Scrappa Actors - [TikTok User Posts Scraper](https://apify.com/thescrappa/tiktok-user-posts-scraper) - [TikTok Music Posts Scraper](https://apify.com/thescrappa/tiktok-music-posts-scraper) - [TikTok Video Details Scraper](https://apify.com/thescrappa/tiktok-video-scraper) # Actor input Schema ## `playlist_ids` (type: `array`): TikTok playlist IDs whose videos you want to collect. ## `count` (type: `integer`): Results Per Page sent to the source search. ## `cursor` (type: `string`): Pagination Cursor sent to the source search. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum dataset items to save across this entire run. ## `maxPages` (type: `integer`): Maximum pages to request for each batch entry. ## Actor input object example ```json { "playlist_ids": [ { "mix_id": "7681171537575824159" } ], "count": 10, "maxResults": 20, "maxPages": 1 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): All results from this run in the default dataset. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
