TikTok
Scrape public TikTok videos, comments, accounts, and trending feeds
What it does
Pulls public TikTok data — videos, comment threads, account profiles, and trending feeds — and returns structured results you can read in chat or in the playground output panel.
How it works
TikTok is a native connector. No TikTok account is required. AINexLayer fetches public pages when you ask.
- Chat — describe a hashtag, profile, video URL, or topic. The agent runs the TikTok scraper automatically.
- API Playground — open API Playground → TikTok, pick a verb, fill in the form, and click Run.
Profile targets reliably return account metadata (name, followers, bio), but TikTok often withholds a profile's video list from automated access. Use hashtags or video URLs for reliable video results. To find accounts by keyword, use User search — TikTok's own video search is login-walled.

Useful options
| Option | What it does |
|---|---|
| Results per page | Max videos per profile or hashtag target |
| Max items | Total items returned across all sources (hard cap 100) |
| Comments per video | Max comments fetched per video URL |
What you get back
Videos include caption, author, play/like/comment/share counts, music, hashtags, and timestamps. Comments include text, author, like count, and reply relationships. User search returns matching profiles with name, followers, bio, and verification status.
Runs are billed per item returned. Error items (e.g. a withheld feed) are never charged. The price per item is shown on the TikTok card in API Playground.
