## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## TikTok Shop Seller Info Scraper

Give it a seller ID or a shop link, get back one row: the storefront's full profile.

You're vetting a supplier, checking a competitor, or confirming a shop is real before you route traffic to it. One `seller_id` in, one `shop_profile` out.

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| `seller_id` | string | — | **Required.** A TikTok Shop seller or shop ID, or a shop share link (`https://vt.tiktok.com/...` or a full shop URL). |

A share link works, but it's not free — resolving it to an ID costs one extra lookup before the shop record itself gets fetched. Paste the bare ID when you have it.

```json
{
  "seller_id": "7495516049083828882"
}
```

### What you get

One row per run.

| Field | Holds |
|---|---|
| `seller_id` | The seller/shop ID, taken from the response when TikTok includes one, otherwise the ID you passed in |
| `name` | Shop name, when the record carries one |
| `shop_profile` | The complete shop record, exactly as TikTok returned it |

```json
{
  "seller_id": "7495516049083828882",
  "name": "Maybelline New York",
  "shop_profile": {
    "shop_name": "Maybelline New York",
    "shop_rating": "4.3",
    "sold_count": 2012919,
    "on_sell_product_count": 29,
    "review_count": 187619,
    "followers_count": "1120898",
    "video_count": "1140"
  }
}
```

That's a trimmed live result. `shop_profile` exists because a shop record isn't a fixed shape — TikTok attaches different fields to different shops. `seller_id` and `name` are broken out because almost every shop has them; anything else you need — ratings, follower counts, sold counts, whatever this particular shop happens to carry — is in `shop_profile`. Note the mixed types: `sold_count` and `review_count` come back as numbers while `followers_count` and `video_count` come back as numeric strings, passed through exactly as the source returns them.

### Questions

**What happens if the seller ID doesn't exist?**
Zero rows. The run finishes normally rather than failing — a bad or delisted ID isn't treated as an error, it's treated as "nothing to report."

**Does a shop link cost more than a plain ID?**
One extra lookup, to turn the link into an ID before the shop record can be fetched. If you're running this at volume and already have IDs on hand — say, from [TikTok Shop Trending Products Scraper](https://apify.com/toolzerhub/tiktok-shop-trending-products-scraper) — pass those instead of the link.

**Can I look up several sellers in one run?**
No — one `seller_id` per run, one row out. Queue a run per seller through the Apify API if you're working through a list.

**What is `name` when TikTok doesn't return one?**
`name` is read from whichever of the shop's name fields the record actually has. When neither is present, `name` comes back empty — the rest of the shop's data is still sitting in `shop_profile`, so nothing is lost, just not broken out.

});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "seller_id": "8655572138322465518"
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("toolzerhub/tiktok-shop-seller-info-scraper").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}`);

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "seller_id": "8655572138322465518"
}' |
apify call toolzerhub/tiktok-shop-seller-info-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,toolzerhub/tiktok-shop-seller-info-scraper"
        }
    }
}

```

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).
