TikTok Video Downloader & Metrics Scraper This actor lets you download TikTok videos and extract video engagement data, including likes, comments, shares, and bookmarks, from individual video URLs. It’s built for speed, accuracy, and stability, making it a practical tool for developers, analysts, marketers, or anyone working with TikTok content. Whether you’re studying viral trends, collecting videos for social media analysis, or just need to download TikTok videos without watermarks, this actor does the job cleanly. It doesn’t just fetch videos, it also pulls valuable metadata so you can understand how each post performs. The actor is designed to be error-resistant, proxy-friendly, and fast, skipping unnecessary elements on the page to improve performance. The scraped data includes high-quality video files, thumbnail images, and engagement numbers, all stored in your Apify dataset and key-value store for easy access or export. The setup is simple, and everything runs in the background using PuppeteerCrawler, with smart resource blocking to save time. This actor is actively maintained, tested regularly, and built to work at scale. It’s already being used in TikTok analytics workflows, content repurposing tools, and data collection pipelines. --- ## 🚀 Features - Downloads TikTok videos from public video URLs - Captures total likes, comments, shares, and bookmarks - Extracts and saves the video’s thumbnail - Saves the raw .mp4 file in Apify storage - Exports scraped data to a structured dataset - Blocks unnecessary page resources to load pages faster - Works with Apify Proxy (recommended for bulk usage) - Gracefully handles most errors without stopping the crawl --- ## 🧠 How to Use 1.
