Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What happens if TikTok blocks my requests?
A: The actor automatically falls back through proxy tiers: no proxy → datacenter → residential. All proxy events are logged clearly. The actor will retry 3 times with residential proxy if needed.

Q: Can I scrape private accounts?
A: No, the actor only scrapes publicly available content.

Q: How many profiles can I scrape at once?
A: You can add unlimited profiles in the startUrls array. The actor processes them sequentially.

Q: What's the difference between keyword and hashtag search?
A: Keyword search searches TikTok's general search, while hashtag search specifically targets hashtag pages.

Q: How long does scraping take?
A: Depends on the number of profiles/queries and max results. The actor processes items as fast as possible while respecting rate limits.

Q: Does the actor save data as it scrapes?
A: Yes! The actor uses live saving - data is pushed to the dataset immediately as it's scraped, so you won't lose data if the actor crashes.
