When to use each Actor
TikTok Scraper
The default. One input schema accepts video URLs, @usernames, hashtags (with or without #), and search keywords with sort control (top/videos/users). Date filters, popularity filters (hearts ≥ / <), max-follower caps, and an opt-in video download add-on are all available as paid modifiers. Pick this when a single run needs to mix input types or when you want TikTok sound/music metadata alongside engagement fields. At $1.70/1K it is also the cheapest full-metadata video source in the suite.
TikTok Comments Scraper
Feed it video URLs or usernames; it returns comments with author, likes, reply depth, and timestamps. $0.50/1K comments is the lowest unit price in the catalog, which matters because comment runs compound fast on viral videos. 99.8% success rate is the highest among the five. Use for sentiment work, support-thread mining, and spam/bot-ring detection.
TikTok Hashtag Scraper
Purpose-built for #tag inputs. Returns videos under a hashtag with user, follower, and engagement data. Narrower scope than the main Scraper but with 99.9% success and a cleaner input surface for campaign/challenge monitoring where hashtags are the primary key. At $2.00/1K videos it's slightly more expensive than the main Scraper per row. Use it when you want hashtag-only runs without configuring search/profile inputs.
TikTok Profile Scraper
Profile-level fields only: bio, verification, follower/following counts, total hearts, nickname, avatar. No videos, so events stay low when all you need is creator-level data. Highest-rated Actor in the suite at 4.95. $2.50/1K is the priciest per row, but a profile row is one event vs. pulling N videos to derive the same counts from the main Scraper.
TikTok Data Extractor
Alternative output schema for hashtag + profile extraction. Overlaps with the main Scraper but ships a flatter JSON shape that's easier to pipe into warehouses or AI pipelines. Larger installed base (48K users) than the hashtag Actor, at the same $2.00/1K. Choose it when your downstream tooling prefers its field layout; otherwise stay on TikTok Scraper.
Proxies and reliability
TikTok is sensitive to IP reputation and region. Clockworks Actors route through Apify proxy by default; for flaky hashtag or search runs enable residential proxies and lower concurrency. See Apify residential proxy docs and each Actor's README for country selection.
TikTok Scraper for mixed discovery (search, profiles, hashtags, URLs). Add TikTok Comments Scraper when you need comment threads; it's $0.50/1K, the cheapest unit in the suite. Use TikTok Hashtag Scraper when campaigns are keyed on specific tags and you want the narrower input schema.
Yes. Configure inputs in the Apify console, run on Apify's cloud, export JSON or CSV. Developers can trigger the same Actors via API or Apify client SDKs.
Small tests often run fine on Apify proxy. For hashtag or search runs above a few thousand items, or when you see thin results, enable residential proxies and set country where the Actor exposes it.
TikTok Scraper exposes a paid video-download add-on; other Actors return media URLs only. You're responsible for copyright and TikTok's terms, so only fetch media you have rights to use.
No. These Actors target public pages. Private accounts and non-public content are out of scope.
Multiply the per-1K price in the table above by your expected row count. Apify's Free plan gives $5/month in credits, which covers a 1K-row test on most of these Actors. Run 50 items first and extrapolate before scheduling.
Common mistakes and fixes
Success rate dropped after a platform update.
Pause large jobs, check the Actor changelog and Issues tab on the Store, and retry with a smaller cap once the maintainer ships a fix.
Hashtag runs return fewer items than expected.
TikTok paginates and geo-filters aggressively. Try narrower tags, regional proxy settings if offered, and lower concurrency.
