You need

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http tiktok-scraper 'https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=harshmaur/tiktok-scraper' --header 'Authorization: your-value'

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tiktok-scraper": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=harshmaur/tiktok-scraper",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "tiktok-scraper": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=harshmaur/tiktok-scraper",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • Authorization secret required HTTP header
    Apify API token as 'Bearer '. Free token at https://console.apify.com/account/integrations

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is TikTok Scraper (Apify) – videos, profiles, comments, transcripts safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: Authorization

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 18 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

TikTok Scraper — MCP server and agent skill

Let an AI agent read TikTok. This repo connects Claude, Cursor, Codex and other MCP clients or skill-aware agents to the TikTok Scraper Apify Actor.

Ask "what were the most liked iced matcha videos this week" or "vet @creator for brand safety", and the agent gets structured rows: videos with views, likes, comments, shares and saves; creator profiles with follower counts; comments with replies; follower and following lists; sounds and hashtag feeds. Optional extras are watermark-free MP4s, transcripts and AI labels for category, sponsored content, brand safety and sentiment.

No TikTok account, cookies or API key. You need only an Apify account.

Hosted MCP server

https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=harshmaur/tiktok-scraper

Sign in with OAuth in the client, or send Authorization: Bearer with a token from Apify Console → Integrations.

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http tiktok https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=harshmaur/tiktok-scraper

Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code and others (mcp.json):

{

"mcpServers": { "tiktok-scraper": { "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=harshmaur/tiktok-scraper" } } }

Registry name: io.github.harshmaur/tiktok-scraper in the official MCP Registry.

Agent skill

skills/apify-tiktok-scraper/SKILL.md tells an agent which input list fits a request, that the per-target video count defaults to 1, which options cost extra, and how to read each row type.

Claude Code plugin (skill plus the hosted MCP tool):

/plugin install apify-tiktok-scraper --marketplace harshmaur/apify-tiktok-scraper

Any agent that reads skills:

npx skills add https://github.com/harshmaur/apify-tiktok-scraper

What you can ask

  • "The 30 newest videos from @khaby.lame with views and likes."
  • "Videos under #booktok since September with at least 50,000 likes, exact tag only."
  • "Export comments and replies from this video link."
  • "Check the last 20 videos of these five creators. Which look sponsored, and are they brand safe?"

Price

$0.35 per 1,000 videos, $0.20 per 1,000 comments, $0.25 per 1,000 followers, $4 per 1,000 profiles. Date and likes filters, exact hashtag match and TikTok's own captions are free. AI labels, AI transcripts and video downloads cost extra. Inputs that fail come back as free failed rows.

The input uses the same field names as clockworks/tiktok-scraper, so a saved input from there runs as it is.
