TikTok Video Scraper (Views, Likes, Caption, Music)

What is TikTok Video Scraper?

TikTok Video Scraper returns the public details of TikTok videos in bulk, one row per video: views, likes, comments, shares and saves, the caption, hashtags, the music used, duration, cover image, author and the country the video was posted from. No login.

Use it for campaign reporting on specific videos, measuring how a creator's posts perform, checking hashtag and sound usage, or enriching a list of video links from a spreadsheet.

How much does it cost?

Pay per result: $0.002 per video ($2 per 1,000), with volume discounts on paid Apify plans. Videos that are not found, private or removed go to the ERRORS record and cost nothing. Set Maximum cost per run to cap spend.

Limits

• Public videos only. Private or removed videos are reported in ERRORS.
• View counts are the values TikTok shows publicly and can be rounded for very large videos.
• Cover image URLs are signed by TikTok and expire after some days.
• The Actor fetches pages directly and switches to Apify Residential proxy only if TikTok shows a bot check.

Using TikTok Video Scraper with AI agents

The Actor is pay-per-event with limited permissions, so AI agents can call it through Apify's MCP server (mcp.apify.com), for example with {"videos": ["https://www.tiktok.com/@nasa/video/7665075736742530317"]}. It also accepts videoUrls, urls, url and startUrls.

FAQ
