TikTok Sounds & Music Scraper

TikTok

Operated by Sourcelane✓ verified

A TikTok audio discovery and metadata extraction connector that finds trending sounds and songs by keyword, enumerates videos that use a given sound, and returns full sound metadata without requiring a TikTok login or cookies. Operates in three modes: keyword-driven sound discovery (identifies distinct sounds used by videos matching keyword searches and reports sound metadata, platform-wide usage counts, and sample-based performance metrics including the top-performing sample video), video listing for a specific sound (returns per-video metadata and engagement metrics for videos that use a sound, with pagination to continue fetching additional pages), and detailed sound lookup (returns full metadata for one or more sounds, including title, duration, album, commercial/licensing and original-sound flags, artist accounts with handles and verified status, owner account for user-uploaded audio, cover art and audio play URLs, and creation date). Outputs structured audio and video metadata suitable for trend analysis, content strategy, music A&R tracking, influencer research, and sound-level analytics; supports sampling across multiple search pages to surface dozens to hundreds of distinct sounds per keyword search.
