TikTok is a SyncGTM native integration — it runs on SyncGTM credits, so there is no TikTok account or API key to connect.

How to use it

  1. Open the table and click Table → Import → TikTok, then pick the scraper
  2. Enter the query, handle or video URL
  3. Set a result limit
  4. Run it, map the fields to columns, and click Create Rows

Schedule Auto Import

Turn on Enable Auto Import in the import panel to re-run the scraper on a frequency instead of only when you click it. Each run reuses the saved query, handle or URL, the result limit and the column mapping, and appends new results to the same table.

  • Run it manually once and confirm the mapping first — a schedule built on an unverified mapping repeats the same mistake every run
  • A weekly hashtag or search run catches creators as they start ranking; trends turn over on roughly a monthly cycle
  • Keep the result limit small before you turn it on — a broad hashtag on a schedule is the fastest way to burn credits unattended
  • Dedupe on handle; prolific creators occupy several rows per run
  • Cap the result limit before you turn it on — every automatic run spends credits exactly as a manual one does
  • Pair it with Auto Run so rows a scheduled run creates enrich themselves

Every schedule appears under Manage scheduled imports, where you can pause, edit, run now, or delete it.

Common use cases

  • Source creators for a partnership or affiliate program. A hashtag search returns everyone posting in your category, ranked by reach.
  • Find brand advocates. Commenters on a video about your category are already engaged with the topic.
  • Research trends before a campaign. What ranks for a term tells you the format and hook that works this month.
  • Track competitor content. Their profile videos, with engagement, in a table you can chart.

Best practices

  • Search by hashtag as well as by keyword — they surface different creators
  • Filter by follower count and engagement rate before outreach; view count alone is a poor proxy
  • Pull a small result count first, then scale — per-post costs add up quickly on a broad hashtag
  • Keep the video URL column so you can reference the specific post when you reach out
  • Dedupe on handle; prolific creators occupy several rows
