n8n Node: TikTok User Info API

This n8n node provides information about a TikTok user including details: name, nickname, ID, bio, followers/following
numbers, play, share and comment count, etc.

Since TikTok doesn't provide a good and free API, this node helps you retrieve data from it as an Unofficial API,
powered by Apify.

Features

• User details - Retrieve all user-related information with remarkable speed and efficiency.
• Real-time data - Authentic, real-time data from TikTok. No pre-built databases.
• Flexible Inputs - Search by username, user ID, or profile URL.

Installation

To install this node in your n8n instance:

1. Go to Settings > Community Nodes.
2. Click Install a community node.
3. Enter n8n-nodes-tiktok-user-info-api and click Install.

Configuration

Authentication

This node requires an Apify account. You can authenticate using:

• Apify OAuth2: Direct authentication via Apify's OAuth flow.

Input Parameters

Ethical Use and Data Practices

This scraper operates without logging in to TikTok. It only processes data that's publicly displayed and
accessible to everyone.

We've implemented robust technical measures to ensure the scraper operates gently and doesn't impose an undue burden
on TikTok's servers. Our purpose is to facilitate responsible research and public data analysis.
