Context

Let's suppose your goal is a list of 200 TikTok creators from the fashion category.

Step 1: Open playground

Sign in, visit Playground, choose TikTok, and pick Get Hashtag Videos. Put a category name as the hashtag value without the # (for our context: fashion), then hit Send request. A table appears with about 20 TikTok videos, including description text, handle, view counts, and similar fields.

Part 2: Fetch more

Press Next page button so another batch of about 20 clips are added to the table. Keep adding until the table has 200 videos.

What you get

Export via CSV. Rows describe TikTok videos with description text, handle etc. Look at the username field: those handles are creators publishing inside that category. From there you can filter creators by geo, audience size, engagement rate, etc.
