TikTok API Python Wrapper

Unofficial TikTok API Wrapper in Python

This is an unofficial TikTok Api python wrapper. I have an App using this API, and thus will constantly keep updating this wrapper
This implementation is inspired by TikTokApi, but runs faster.

tiktokapi-python's Issues

getVideoByUserName

any attemtp to get the user video, custom or not, on multiple types of API, not only this one, now returns StatusCode: '0'. Anyone knows if something recently changes within TikTok, and if there is a solution?

video_data = api.getVideosByUserId(tiktok_user_id, sec_user_id)
app.logger.info('user video_data: %s' % video_data)

response:
INFO in api_service: user video_data: {'statusCode': 0}

Everything else works.

Why am I getting this issue

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "c:/Users/48606/Desktop/ttbot/skrypt.py", line 26, in
api.downloadVideoById(trendin[i], 'C:\Users\48606\Desktop\ttbot\vids_tmp')
File "C:\Users\48606\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\lib\site-packages\TikTokAPI\tiktokapi.py", line 242, in downloadVideoById
with open(save_path, 'wb') as f:
PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'C:\Users\48606\Desktop\ttbot\vids_tmp'

I have the newest version

Question: structure of results

Great project, thanks for making it available!

I noticed that when requesting video metadata by username, using getVideosByUserName(), the results have a different structure than when requesting by hashtag, using getVideosByHashTag(). For example, the key for author information is author for the former, and authorInfos for the latter.

I was wondering, is this difference caused by tiktok itself? Is there a way to adjust this (other than parsing the results afterwards)?

func downloadVideoByIdNoWatermark No complete data was returned

The video with watermark is complete, but the size without watermark is only tens of bytes?

Posting possible?

Hi is posting possible?

Or getting stats like an amount of hashtags "dog" in a day?

Just figuring out what's possible and what not?

It`s have a method for returning all new tiktok`s

Hi I am wondering its have a function (method) to return all new tiktok videos in range and with fileter hashtag uploaded same day when the search is made.Thanks

[request][feature] Get current user info from cookie

@avilash
Is there an endpoint to get the current user (or id) based on the cookie?
Or from TikTokBrowser.async_fetch_auth_params ?

ERROR:root:TikTok response

I have been using this for a week now with no issue. I attempted to pull a video tonight, and I am getting the error above. It will sometimes pull 1 video with out the error then for the remaining return the same error. Haven't seen this and I am not sure what it may even be related to.

Thanks

How do I retrieve the most recent video of a user?

I am looking to create a discord bot which allows a command to be run and the most recent video of a particular user is sent. I have read through the docs and cannot find the information I need.
I need the:
Description of the video,
Most recent video,
and a preview of the video (the image that shows up when scrolling though a TikTok profile)

If anyone could assist me with how to do this it would be much appreciated.

api.getLikesByUserName => {'statusCode': 0}

from TikTokAPI import TikTokAPI

cookie = {
  "s_v_web_id": "...",
  "tt_webid": "..."
}

api = TikTokAPI(cookie=cookie)
user_videos = api.getLikesByUserName("my.username")

print(user_videos)

I always get {statusCode: 0} even though my cookie params are valid and my account is public.
Any ideas on how to debug this? Thanks

cant scrap

i cannot scrap videos by hashtag/author

/api/commit/item/digg/ cannot run without a certain header

Looks like TikTok added a new header for more blockage. "hTc6j8Njvn" it has a, b, c, d, f. You cant like or follow without adding these header values. I tried debugging from console but there are so many functions. Looks like part of the _sig. Please fix it, thank you.

This event loop is already running

Hey ! I have a problem that I don't really understand..

This is my code
from TikTokAPI.TikTokAPI import TikTokAPI
api = TikTokAPI()
test = api.getVideosByUserName("creatingwonders")

And this is the error I get but I just don't understand why ..
RuntimeError: This event loop is already running

Thanks in advance

API unstable and not working ({'statusCode': 0})

I keep getting {'statusCode': 0} for my results..
I did set the cookie properly

Is this API still working for you ?

Hey i wanted to work with this api but this look like nothing work.
When im trying basic tests from the API, nothing work...

I just got Invalid Argument error with nothing else.
When I'm trying to do make my own functions, that give me error from TikTikAPI class.

Im alone to have this problem ?

Thanks in advance

The api randomly does not let me get data from the getVideosByUserName method

I have a bot that retrieves the tik tok of an user every minute. But now It just gives this key error:
line 118, in getVideosByUserName user_obj = user_data["userInfo"]["user"] KeyError: 'userInfo'

Here is my code :

def get_tikTok(username):
	api = TikTokAPI(cookie=None)
	videos_obj = api.getVideosByUserName(username, count=3)

python3.7

code:

from TikTokAPI import TikTokAPI
api = TikTokAPI()
retval = api.getTrending(count=5)

it worked until last week. Found similar issues on the other unofficial tiktok python API, but no one could solve it at the moment.

Getting started

Hello,

I can't start using the API, when I use examples from the readme I encounter some errors.

Do you know how to fix it?

Kind regards

No matching distribution found for playwright (from TikTokApi)

Fixed this, but posting my solution anyways so others don't have to struggle for half an hour

Solution: update pip

pip install -U pip

Confirmed working with python3.6 and pip 21.2

SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED

I always get this Error. Can anybody help me there?
I guess it doesn't work because of the cookie-keys. Which of them are the right one to fill them into the code

Please help me :/

https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSe4sBhX6/

user_obj = user_data["userInfo"]["user"]

I cant use getVideosByUserName(userename, count) function. It always return user_obj = user_data["userInfo"]["user"] error.

How to actually get the cookie info

Hi,

i am unable to get the cookie info. I don't know if I am dumb or what but I just cant seem to find it :/ . This is my applications tab screenshot. Please where are the cookies. Thanks in advance.

rate limit

I'm checking for new videos from a specific user every 15min using .getUserByName() but I think my IP was banned because the same script works in another machine and stopped working on the machine it was running. I could not find the info about rate limits on TT docs. Does anyone knows where I can find this info?

I think tiktok changed something.

Update account details? Register Accounts?

title says it all, is this possible?

Comment API response status 3?

What I know

status 2 = failure.
status = 7 is success
wtf is status = 3?

in comment API response.

please advise. thank you

downloadVideoById() not working

I tried this function and in return I get exception of permission denied. Upon debugging, found out HTML page doesn't display anything because tiktok doesn't give access to our requests.

JSONDecodeError

Hello! I'm trying to do this:

class Bot:
    t: TikTokAPI
    hashtags = [

        for hashtag in self.hashtags:
            result.extend(self.t.getVideosByHashTag(hashTag=hashtag, count=count_per_seed)['body']['itemListData'])

json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

It is very strange error, cause sometimes it throwing, sometimes not. With the same parameters.
Can you fix it?

upd: I tried to print(r.text) in TikTokAPI.utils.get_req_json and it shows normal json:

{"statusCode":0,"challengeInfo":{"challenge":{"id":"1638134384680965","title":"usatiktokers","desc":"","profileThumb":"","profileMedium":"","profileLarger":"","coverThumb":"","coverMedium":"","coverLarger":"","isCommerce":false},"stats":{"videoCount":1833,"viewCount":16000000},"shareMeta":{"title":"#usatiktokers on TikTok","desc":"16.0m views - Watch awesome short videos created with trending hashtag #usatiktokers"}}}

Also I've tried to make json.loads() this r.text and it still correct, but with your library not. Hmm..

upd2: Okay. I found that sometimes tiktok sends empty message:

def get_req_json(url, params=None, headers=None):
    r = requests.get(url, params=params, headers=headers)
    resp_str = r.content.decode()
    print(f'"{resp_str}"')
    resp = json.loads(r.content.decode())
    return resp

Output:

"{"statusCode":0,"challengeInfo":{"challenge":{"id":"1638134384680965","title":"usatiktokers","desc":"","profileThumb":"","profileMedium":"","profileLarger":"","coverThumb":"","coverMedium":"","coverLarger":"","isCommerce":false},"stats":{"videoCount":1832,"viewCount":16000000},"shareMeta":{"title":"#usatiktokers on TikTok","desc":"16.0m views - Watch awesome short videos created with trending hashtag #usatiktokers"}}}"
""

You can see that second message is empty..
And it is the same request. I'm requesting for usatiktokers hashtag only but it gets 2 response and one of them is empty.
I see that problem in getVideosByHashTag return.
First request is for getHashtag() and second (that empty) it is final request

Cannot import module

i followed all the steps correct in yr readme document, but upon trying to start, I get this error. i do not know how to continue, please advice.

It happened even when I tried to perform the test from repl.it.
How can I handle it?

tt_webid

where can i get the tt_webid ?

it will be ban or how can I add proxy to it?

question related

1-->>is there any limit for making an requests,
2-->>do we need to constantly update "s_v_web_id" and "tt_webid"

Cookie names not available

In the documentation it says to use the following:

cookie = {
  "s_v_web_id": "<your_key>",
  "tt_webid": "<your_key>"
}

But after logging in to Tiktok, there is no cookie by these names.

Seems like tt_webid has changed to ttwid.
But cant figure out what or where to locate the s_v_web_id

Does anyone know?

RuntimeError: There is no current event loop in thread 'Handler_0'.

Tried

api = TikTokAPI()
video = api.getVideoById('6896523341402737921')
print(video)

got

Same error I have in WSL2
Also tried video = api.getVideoById(6896523341402737921), but it doesn't help

adding offset to getVideosByHashTag count

The problem is I would like to download 100 videos by some hashtag. But I can only download about 35 in one function call. But if I call the function again I will get the same 35 tiktoks. How can I get next 35 (or more) tiktoks?

from TikTokAPI import TikTokAPI
import os

cookie = {
  "s_v_web_id": "",
  "tt_webid": ""
}

api = TikTokAPI(cookie=cookie)
# count = 20 works, but count = 100 doesn't work! 
retval = api.getVideosByHashTag("funny", count=20)

directory = "funny_hashtag"
if not os.path.isdir(directory):
  os.mkdir(directory)
print(retval)

for tiktok in retval['itemList']:
  video_data = api.downloadVideoById(str(tiktok['id']), f"{directory}/{tiktok['id']}.mp4")

downloadVideoByIdNoWatermark downloads empty file

The "vid:" part is gone from the watermarked videofile. Is there another way to get hiddent video_id?

Errors on Ubuntu 16.04

I'm trying to use it in my program on Ubuntu 16.04 + Python3.9. On Windows it works good and stable but on Ubuntu it raises such erorrs:

OR

Maybe I made something wrong but I didn't find any issue about it in this repo.

Thanks!
