    Here's a TikTok API for Python. And here's the Hue API (obviously, that's only useful if you have Phillips Hue lights).
  • Scraping tiktok comments with hashtag?

    But so far TikTok seems to be annoying to crawl, as in most tools like TikTokAPI, tiktok-scraper or more generally yt-dlp break regularly. My own basic attempts work for some data but I'm more or less waiting for them to break, too.

    And there's not a working version of an Unofficial API either--seems TikTok has enabled captchas to prevent data scraping.

    Not sure why people here are saying there isn't an API available for TikTok. https://github.com/davidteather/TikTok-Api is a free API that can be uses.

  • Anyone else struggling to scrape TikTok recently?
    3 projects | /r/webdev | 6 Jun 2022
    A couple months ago I started a project that would let me scrape all the available data from every video of a specified tiktok user ID. Mainly I relied on the Python library "TikTokApi" (github page here:https://github.com/davidteather/TikTok-Api) which basically just uses a headless browsers and custom functionality to interface with TikTok.
  • Twitter set to accept Musk's 'best and final' offer-sources

    TikTok does a pretty good job with its ridiculous security ecosystem hyperfocused on prohibiting any third-party clients.

    APIs need to use actual headless browsers in order to generate the appropriate signature.[1]

    Maybe some of that 43B can go towards a similar system.

  • Is it ok to use another website's API in my web application?
    2 projects | /r/webdev | 21 Dec 2021
    I was checking out this file here: https://github.com/davidteather/TikTok-Api/blob/master/TikTokApi/tiktok.py they seem to be directly scraping tiktok.com to get their information and taking advantage of tiktok’s non-developer API. The difference being with the unofficial one you don’t need an API key, just it’s legality at scale gets a little iffy (moreso in the case where Tiktok would be suffering a sufficiently large traffic load for your apps benefit though). If that’s a concern, then I would just use that official TikAPI rest API you linked. The downside of that being it requires OAuth integration, meaning a user of your application would have to sign into their tiktok account and grant your application authorization to act on its behalf. That’s probably a better way to go about it, but does limit/change the scope of what you can do.

    Sure, I'm not actually querying the API directly, when I googled "tiktok API" I found a community made python wrapper that I went for first bc Python is my comfort language, but here is the link to the github page: https://github.com/davidteather/TikTok-Api
