Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README **Search TikTok videos by keyword, paginated automatically.** TikTok Video Search Scraper runs a keyword search across TikTok video results, one dataset row per match, with an optional add-on that fetches full video detail for every result. ### Keyword, region, and an optional detail switch Provide a search keyword, choose a region, set Max Results. #### Search TikTok videos Enter a keyword, choose a region, and set Max Results, with an optional Add Video Details add-on. | Field | Type | Required | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `keyword` | string | Yes | Keyword or phrase to search TikTok for. | | `region` | string | No | Two-letter region code affecting search/feed results, e.g. US, GB, JP. | | `maxItems` | integer | No | Maximum number of items to save. Set 0 for no limit. | | `enrichVideoDetails` | boolean | No | Merge the full video detail response into every video row. One extra request per item. | ```json { "keyword": "cats", "region": "US", "maxItems": 20, "enrichVideoDetails": false } ```` ### One row per matching video #### 🎬 Video identity | Field | Type | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | `aweme_id` | string | TikTok video ID. | | `description` | mixed | Video caption or user bio, when available. | | `create_time` | mixed | Creation timestamp, when available. | #### 📊 Engagement signals | Field | Type | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | `stats` | object | Engagement stats (likes/comments/shares/plays or followers/following/hearts), when available. | | `music_info` | object | Music/sound info attached to a video, when available. | ```json { "aweme_id": "7530466721379978522", "description": "cats being cats", "stats": { "diggCount": 100 } } ``` ### Billing This Actor uses Apify pay-per-result pricing. You are charged for successful dataset results according to the Actor pricing shown on the Apify Pricing tab. Apify's free credits may cover small test runs and up to the free result allowance configured for the Actor. Use Max Results to bound a run before scaling to larger usernames, keywords, or ID lists. ### Terms This Actor extracts publicly available TikTok content. It should not be used to collect private user data. Make sure your use case complies with applicable privacy laws, TikTok's terms, and your own legal obligations. If you are unsure, consult a qualified lawyer. ### Integrations #### Python ```python from apify_client import ApifyClient client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_API_TOKEN") run = client.actor("toolzerhub/tiktok-video-search-scraper").call(run_input={ "keyword": "cats", "region": "US", "maxItems": 20, "enrichVideoDetails": false }) for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items(): print(item) ``` #### Node.js ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from "apify-client"; const client = new ApifyClient({ token: "YOUR_APIFY_API_TOKEN" }); const run = await client.actor("toolzerhub/tiktok-video-search-scraper").call({ "keyword": "cats", "region": "US", "maxItems": 20, "enrichVideoDetails": false }); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); console.log(items); ``` ### Other TikTok Actors Fetch a single video by ID, or search for hashtags instead. - [Bulk TikTok Video Scraper — URLs, Stats & Music](https://apify.com/toolzerhub/tiktok-video-scraper) — Fetch multiple public TikTok videos from IDs, full video URLs, or vt/vm share links. Export one row per video with captions, timestamps, engagement statistics, and music metadata. - [TikTok Hashtag Scraper — Stats & Top Videos](https://apify.com/toolzerhub/tiktok-hashtag-scraper) — Fetch TikTok hashtag metadata by name or collect current top videos as separate rows with hashtag context, captions, statistics, and music information. - [TikTok User Search Scraper — Find Creators](https://apify.com/toolzerhub/tiktok-user-search-scraper) — Search public TikTok users by keyword with automatic pagination. Export clean identity and account fields, or optionally enrich each result with complete public profile information. ### Contact support Use the Issues tab on the Actor page for bug reports, missing fields, and feature requests.
