## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## TikTok Profile Scraper

Extract public TikTok profile data at scale using usernames (unique IDs).\
This Apify actor is built for teams that need reliable TikTok profile metadata for lead generation, competitor research, influencer discovery, and social media analytics.

### Why Use This TikTok Profile Scraper

- Scrape **public TikTok profile information** without manual copy-paste.
- Input one or many usernames in a single run.
- Export structured JSON for automation pipelines.
- Includes core growth metrics such as followers, following, likes, and video count.
- Works well for SEO research, creator monitoring, and market intelligence workflows.

### Input

The actor expects one required field:

- `uniqueId` (array of strings): List of TikTok usernames / unique IDs (one per line in Apify UI).

#### Input Example

```json
{
  "uniqueId": [
    "tiktok",
    "nike",
    "therock"
  ]
}
```

#### Backward Compatibility

The actor also accepts `usernames` in code for compatibility with older runs, but `uniqueId` is the official and recommended input key.

### Output

Each dataset item contains merged TikTok profile + stats fields for one username.

Common fields include:

- `uniqueId` - TikTok username
- `nickname` - display name
- `signature` - bio text
- `verified` - verification status
- `privateAccount` - whether profile is private
- `avatarLarger` - profile image URL
- `videoCount` - total published videos
- `followerCount` - followers
- `followingCount` - following
- `heartCount` - total likes

#### Output Example

```json
{
  "uniqueId": "nike",
  "nickname": "Nike",
  "signature": "Have a Nike Day",
  "verified": true,
  "privateAccount": false,
  "avatarLarger": "https://p16-sign-va.tiktokcdn.com/...",
  "videoCount": 780,
  "followerCount": 5020466,
  "followingCount": 180,
  "heartCount": 18443294
}
```

If a profile request fails, the actor stores an error item in the dataset:

```json
{
  "error": "❌ Error for <username>"
}
```

### How To Use

1. Open the actor on Apify.
2. Add one or more TikTok usernames into `uniqueId`.
3. Start the run.
4. Download results from the dataset in JSON, CSV, Excel, or via API.

### Typical Use Cases

- TikTok influencer research
- TikTok account audit and benchmarking
- Competitor profile tracking
- Social media reporting dashboards
- Creator database enrichment

### Performance Notes

- The actor processes 500 profiles per minute for faster throughput.
- It retries temporary provider-side 5xx errors automatically.
- Existing dataset items are respected, so resumed runs continue from the next index.

### Responsible Data Use

Use this actor only for lawful and ethical processing of publicly available data.\
Respect platform policies and applicable privacy/data-protection regulations in your jurisdiction.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "uniqueId": [
        "tiktok"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("datadoping/tiktok-user-profile-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}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = { "uniqueId": ["tiktok"] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("datadoping/tiktok-user-profile-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "uniqueId": [
    "tiktok"
  ]
}' |
apify call datadoping/tiktok-user-profile-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,datadoping/tiktok-user-profile-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).
