Tiktok Scraper
This project is a specialized TikTok API scraper and data extractor. It functions as a proxy-based web scraper designed to collect user metadata, video posts, and trend feeds, while providing a webhook data pipeline to route scraped information to external URLs via HTTP requests.
The tool includes a watermark-free video downloader that saves high-definition content to local storage. It employs cryptographic request signing for server authentication and utilizes session cookie authentication combined with proxy rotation to manage network traffic and avoid rate limits.
Capabilities cover bulk content extraction through batch-processing pipelines and the retrieval of metadata for profiles, hashtags, and music tracks. Extracted data is exported into structured JSON or CSV formats, and local state tracking is used to record download history and prevent duplicate requests.
