Getting Started

Installation

Install the tiktokapipy package (or add it to your project requirements) and set up Playwright:

pip install tiktokapipy
python -m playwright install

Quick Start Guide

TikTokPy has both a synchronous and an asynchronous API. The interfaces are the same, but the asynchronous API requires awaiting of certain functions and iterators.

Both APIs must be used as context managers. To get video information in both APIs:

Synchronous	Asynchronous
from tiktokapipy.api import TikTokAPI with TikTokAPI() as api: video = api.video(video_link) ...	from tiktokapipy.async_api import TikTokAPI async with TikTokAPI() as api: video = await api.video(video_link) ...

More examples can be found in the documentation.

Warning

Scraping will not always work on the first try. Sporadic network and loading issues could cause extraction to fail. Look at the documentation for the API parameters to see what options can help with this.
