Apify ## Questions about TikTok API ### Is the TikTok API free? TikTok sets the access terms and any charges for its own official API. Through Scrollport you do not need a TikTok developer account: these tools are priced per request or result, depending on the tool, paid from a prepaid wallet, and connecting your first agent adds $1 of trial credit. ### How do I get TikTok data without an API key? Connect your agent to Scrollport once. It can then call the TikTok tools on this page through Scrollport, which holds the provider access, so you never create or handle a TikTok or provider API key. ### What is the best TikTok scraper for an AI agent? It depends on what you need back and how much you will run it. Search TikTok across all content by keyword (TikHub, $0.0025/request): Get comprehensive search results of specified keywords. Search TikTok hashtags by keyword (TikHub, $0.0025/request): Get hashtag search results of specified keywords. Search TikTok photo posts by keyword (TikHub, $0.0025/request): Search TikTok photo posts by keyword. Your agent can inspect the closest match and see its exact price before it runs. ## Learn more about TikTok content research Use public TikTok content to find current reference videos, repeatable hooks and relevant creators for a defined audience, product or campaign brief. **Build a mixed reference set** Ask the agent to find direct competitors, adjacent creators your audience already watches and a few useful accounts from other categories with similar buying triggers. This produces more original inputs than copying the category leader. **Tag what makes each example useful** Group recent videos by opening hook, promise, format, pacing, objection, call to action and questions in the comments. Keep source links so the patterns can become an original brief rather than unsupported advice. **How do I distinguish a TikTok trend from one viral video?** Look for a similar useful pattern across several creators within a recent period and compare it with older or weaker examples. One viral post is a reference; repetition across relevant accounts is evidence that the pattern may be worth testing. **Example prompt** This prompt follows the reference-research workflow used by current short-form practitioners. Example prompt to give your agent `Use Scrollport's TikTok content research tools to find recent reference videos for [AUDIENCE, PRODUCT OR NICHE] in [MARKET OR LANGUAGE]. Include direct competitors, adjacent creators and cross-category accounts with similar buying triggers. Tag hooks, formats, promises, objections and comment questions, separate repeated patterns from one-off viral posts, retain source links, and propose three original angles to test.
