TikTok Search Suggestions Scraper

Overview

This project uses the Git Scraping technique, popularized by Simon Willison, to scrape TikTok Search Suggestions. The data is fetched hourly using GitHub Actions.

How it Works

  • Scraping: The script fetches search suggestion data from TikTok's API.
  • Scheduling: GitHub Actions are scheduled to run this script every hour.
  • Data Storage: Scraped data is stored in the repository, providing a history of changes over time.

Usage

You can view the scraped data in the search-suggestions.json within this repository. Each hourly update is committed, allowing for tracking changes over time. See https://flatgithub.com/juppcamper/tiktok-git-scrp?filename=search-suggestions.json for more.

Acknowledgements

This project is inspired by Simon Willison's Git Scraping approach.
