TikTok Video Scraper with Comments

Overview

The TikTok Video Scraper with Comments is an Apify actor that allows you to scrape TikTok video data along with their comments and replies. This powerful tool helps you extract structured data from TikTok URLs, including the video details, user comments, and replies.

Key Features

• TikTok Video Data Extraction: The actor scrapes the video details, including the URL, author, and metadata, even if no comments are present.
• Customizable Comments Limit: Specify the number of comments to retrieve for each TikTok video.
• Replies to Comments: Configure the number of replies fetched for each comment or disable it for performance optimization.

⚠️ Important Feature Highlight ⚠️

Integrated Video Data in Comments

• If includeVideoInFirstComment is checked: The TikTok video details are embedded within the first comment object for each scraped TikTok url. If no comments exist, the video details will be included in one dummy comment object to ensure consistency.
• If includeVideoInFirstComment is NOT checked: The TikTok video details are excluded from the comment object entirely, and only the standard dataset fields (without embedding the video in comments) are provided.

I gave my word and made a commitment 20 years ago to his Highness High Chief Maleatoa Tunamafili II and to our people of Samoa, that I would “leave my boyish ways behind” (well, I try 😅) and carry my Samoan, Polynesian, and Black culture around the world with great respect, pride, kindness, MANA, humility, and warrior spirit. Fa’a Samoa (the Samoan way) After 20yrs of proudly carrying our culture with me around the world, I can’t wait to soon return back home to Samoa. I already have chills just thinking about it 🇼🇸❤️💪🏾 Until then, I’ll come back home to @WWE tomorrow night as we make history on @Netflix and begin a new and exciting era. Tomorrow night is dedicated to my grandfather, the High Chief Peter Maivia, my grandmother, Lia Maivia and my dad, Rocky “Soulman” Johnson and my ancestors who have ALL paved the way. ~ High Chief Seiuli",
