# How to scrape Douyin videos without login

Douyin trends often reach TikTok weeks later. Here is how to search it from outside China, no account needed.

**Short answer**

Run the **Douyin Scraper** with Chinese search keywords. It returns videos with likes, shares, collects, hashtags, music and a no-watermark link. Add profiles or video URLs, and comments per video if you need them.

## A real use case

A camping-gear brand wants product ideas before they hit the West. They search 露营装备 (camping gear) sorted by most liked in the last week and spot a folding stove that is everywhere on Douyin but rare on Amazon.

## Step by step

1. **Translate your keyword** into Simplified Chinese.
2. **Set sort** to most liked and a time range.
3. **Run** and export.
4. **Translate captions** in your sheet or with an AI step.

### Input (paste into the JSON tab)

```
{
  "searchKeywords": [
    "露营装备"
  ],
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 50,
  "sortBy": "most_liked",
  "publishedWithin": "week",
  "commentsPerVideo": 10
}
```

### What you get back

```
{
  "title": "周末露营清单",
  "likes": 48200,
  "shares": 3100,
  "collects": 9800,
  "hashtags": [
    "露营",
    "户外"
  ],
  "music": "原声",
  "noWatermarkUrl": "https://..."
}
```

Trimmed example. Names and numbers are illustrative; your run returns real data with more fields.

## Tips

- Collects (saves) signal buying intent better than likes.
- Need what is said in the videos? There is also a Douyin transcript actor on our Apify profile.

## What it costs

$3 per 1,000 videos. 50 videos cost about **$0.15**.

Plus a small per-run start fee. Apify's free plan includes monthly credit, enough to test. Check the listing for current pricing.

## FAQ

**Do I need a Chinese phone number?**

No. No login or account of any kind.
