How to scrape TikTok Ad Library Ad with JavaScript
Ad Library Ad This tutorial gets it with a short JavaScript program and the TikTok Ad Library Ad API. Each successful call costs 1 credit; errors and not-found answers are free.
1. Get an API key
Sign in to get a key and 100 free credits, no card. Then put the key in an environment variable so it stays out of your code:
export SCRAPEIO_API_KEY="your_key_here"2. Set up JavaScript
npm install axios3. Write the code
Save this as scrape.js. Replace YOUR_AD_ID with a real ad_id.
const axios = require("axios");
async function main() {
const params = { "ad_id": "YOUR_AD_ID" };
const headers = { "x-api-key": process.env.SCRAPEIO_API_KEY };
const { data: body } = await axios.get("https://scrapeio.com/v1/tiktok/ad-library/ad", { params, headers });
console.log(body.data);
}
main().catch((err) => {
console.error(err.response ? err.response.status : err.message);
process.exit(1);
});4. Run it
node scrape.jsThe response has the same envelope on every endpoint: success, cached, credits_used, credits_remaining and data. Shared fields such as handle, followers, plays, likes and created_at have the same names on every platform.
