Workflow
Progress:
- [ ] Step 1: Validate video URLs
- [ ] Step 2: Run tiktok-comments-scraper
- [ ] Step 3: Poll for SUCCEEDED
- [ ] Step 4: Deliver comment datasetStep 2: Run the Actor
Recommended — run_actor.js (handles waiting, output, and file saving automatically):
# Quick answer (prints table to chat)
node scripts/run_actor.js \
--actor "apidojo~tiktok-comments-scraper" \
--input '{"param": "value"}'
# Save as CSV
node scripts/run_actor.js \
--actor "apidojo~tiktok-comments-scraper" \
--input '{"param": "value"}' \
--output YYYY-MM-DD_results.csv --format csv
# Save as JSON
node scripts/run_actor.js \
--actor "apidojo~tiktok-comments-scraper" \
--input '{"param": "value"}' \
--output YYYY-MM-DD_results.json --format jsonAPIFY_TOKENmust be set in environment or.envfile.
If Apify MCP is available:
Tool: apify:run-actor
Actor: "apidojo~tiktok-comments-scraper"
Input:
{
"videoUrls": ["https://www.tiktok.com/@user/video/123456"],
"maxItems": 200,
"includeReplies": false
}REST API fallback:
curl -X POST \
"https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/apidojo~tiktok-comments-scraper/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"videoUrls": ["<url>"], "maxItems": 200}'Save id as RUN_ID. Poll until status = SUCCEEDED:
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/actor-runs/$RUN_ID?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" | grep '"status"'Fetch results:
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/actor-runs/$RUN_ID/dataset/items?token=$APIFY_TOKEN&format=json"Step 3: Handle Edge Cases
- 0 comments: Video may have comments disabled or be private. Report to user.
- Video deleted or unavailable: Actor returns error — remove URL from batch and notify.
- Comment count less than expected: TikTok filters spam comments server-side; this is expected.
