Export the accounts a TikTok user follows. One complete profile per row, pagination handled for you.
Useful when you are mapping who a creator pays attention to -- their following list is usually short enough to collect in full, unlike their follower list.
Input
| Field | Use it for |
|---|---|
username | Username or profile URL of the account whose following list you want. |
sec_user_id | Leave blank. Resolved from the username automatically. |
maxItems | Caps the run. Default 100. Set 0 for no limit. |
addonProfile | Fetches each account's full public profile and merges it into the row. One extra request per account. |
addonSimilarUsers | Adds similar_users, TikTok's recommendations for each account. One extra request per account. |
{"username": "https://www.tiktok.com/@khaby.lame","maxItems": 0}
Output
One row per followed account.
| Field | Contents |
|---|---|

stats | Follower, following, video and like counts |
source_username, source_sec_user_id | The account whose list produced this row |

Questions
Why does maxItems: 0 work better here than on the Followers Scraper?
Because following lists are small. Most creators follow a few dozen to a few hundred accounts, which TikTok will page through completely. Follower lists run to millions and TikTok stops issuing cursors long before the end -- so 0 there means "as much as TikTok allows", while 0 here usually means the whole list.
The run finished with zero rows and no error. What happened?
The secUid lookup failed. TikTok's following endpoint needs an opaque sec_user_id rather than a handle, so the Actor resolves one from your username first; when that resolution fails the run is logged and ends quietly rather than throwing. A renamed or non-existent handle is the usual cause.
Can I combine this with the Followers Scraper in one dataset?
Yes. The row shape is identical and relation tells the two apart -- follower or following.
Does addonSimilarUsers work on every row?
Only where the row carries a sec_user_id, which TikTok's recommendation lookup requires. Rows without one keep their base fields and skip the enrichment.
