TikTok Comment (+Replies) Scraper

Overview

This actor scrapes comments and replies from TikTok videos. It's a pay-per-event tool that provides real-time data directly from TikTok. You provide video URLs, and it returns structured comment data, which can be exported in multiple formats or accessed via API.

Key Features

• Scrapes comments and replies: Extracts top-level comments and can optionally scrape reply threads.
• Real-time data: Fetches live data from TikTok; no pre-built databases.
• Cost-effective: Consumption starts at ~0.001 compute units for 100 items. Proxy costs are included.
• Developer-friendly: Managed results via dataset, with API access for integration and scheduled runs.
• Memory efficient: Capable of crawling 100 items using only 128MB of memory.

Free Trial Limits:
* Maximum of 10 results per query.
* Limited to 1 URL per run.
* Upgrade via: https://apify.com/pricing?fpr=python_automation

How to Use

Configure the actor using a JSON input object. The actor will process the list, output progress logs, and store the results in a dataset. If the input is invalid, the run will stop immediately with an error message.

Input

The input must be a JSON object with the following fields:

Input Example

{
  "urls": [
    "https://www.tiktok.com/@ladygaga/video/7482895727757102382"
  ],
  "maxItems": 100,
  "shouldScrapeReplies": true,
  "shouldScrapeAll": false
}

Output

Results are stored as individual items in a dataset. Each item is a JSON object representing a single comment.

{
  "author_pin": false,
  "aweme_id": "7211250685902359850",
