TikTok Shop — Search Results

Input a keyword and a country code → output a paginated list of matching TikTok Shop products with prices, sellers, ratings, sold counts, images and SKU variants.

Language

All process output to user (progress updates, process notifications) follows the user's language.

Objective

Retrieve TikTok Shop search result products for a given keyword under a specific country region, extracting complete listing data (title, price, currency, seller, shop, rating, sold count, images, SKUs) for market research, competitor tracking and dropshipping product discovery.

Prerequisites

• Target page is already open in the browser: https://shop.tiktok.com/{country_code_lower}/s?q={keyword} (e.g. https://shop.tiktok.com/us/s?q=lipstick)
• No login required. The keyword search page renders products server-side and is publicly accessible

Pre-execution Checks

1. Tool Readiness

If browser-act has been confirmed available in the current session → skip this step.

Invoke browser-act via Skill tool to load usage. If installation or configuration issues arise, follow its guidance to resolve then retry.

Capability Components

This Skill's operational boundary = what the user can manually do in their browser. It only reads data already displayed to the user on the page, never bypassing authentication or access controls. Its role is equivalent to copy-pasting on the user's behalf — the data is already on screen, automation merely saves time. JS code is encapsulated in Python files under the scripts/ directory, invoked via eval "$(python scripts/xxx.py {params})". $(...) is bash syntax; it is recommended to use the bash tool for execution.

Below are all atomic capabilities discovered and verified during the exploration phase, listed by command template with parameters. Simply invoke them as needed — no need to read scripts/*.py source code or re-verify. Only inspect scripts when execution fails for troubleshooting. Combine freely as needed during execution.

Network Capture: get search result products (parameters injected via URL navigation)

The search page renders products into the HTML server-side inside a __MODERN_ROUTER_DATA__ JSON script. Business parameters (keyword, country region, page) are injected via URL; product data is extracted from the SSR script via DOM.

1. navigate https://shop.tiktok.com/{country_code_lower}/s?q={keyword}&page={page}
   • {country_code_lower} is the lowercase 2-letter region code (e.g. us, gb, de)
   • {keyword} must be URL-encoded (spaces become %20 or +)
   • {page} is optional; omit for the first result set (15 products), pass 2, 3, ... to request more (server may return up to 30 products with has_more=true)
2. wait stable
3. eval "$(python scripts/extract-search-results.py --country_code {country_code_upper})"
   • {country_code_upper} is the uppercase form written back into each product record

Endpoint characteristic: SSR data lives in <script id="__MODERN_ROUTER_DATA__" type="application/json">; the search feed is at loaderData['(region)/(route_page_name)/page'].page_config.components_map[?].component_name === 'feed_list_search_word'.

Error handling:

• Response returns {"error": true, "message": "SSR data script __MODERN_ROUTER_DATA__ not found..."} — the URL was redirected (e.g. to a captcha or region-blocked page). Take a screenshot to inspect. If a slider/puzzle captcha is present, use remote-assist to have the user complete verification, then retry
• Response returns {"error": true, "message": "Search feed component (feed_list_search_word) not found..."} — this typically happens when the country region has no TikTok Shop coverage from the current IP or when the search returned no products. Confirm with get title (title should contain the keyword) and screenshot (page should show product cards); if the page shows "No results found", the search legitimately has no matches
• count == 0 with has_more == false — legitimate no-results outcome

Enum Parameters

[AI] country_code: TikTok Shop supports the following 2-letter region codes (uppercase used for output field, lowercase used inside URL path): US, VN, TH, PH, MY, ID, GB, SG, ES, MX, DE, IT, FR, BR, JP. Regions other than US require the browser's outbound IP to be inside (or accepted by) the target region; from a US IP, non-US regions typically return "No results found" or block the request.

Pagination

URL Pagination: URL pattern https://shop.tiktok.com/{country_code_lower}/s?q={keyword}&page={N}. The first request (no page or page=1) returns up to 15 products; subsequent pages (page=2, page=3, ...) may return up to 30 products in one payload. Termination: has_more == false in the extracted output, or count == 0. The server caps how deep pagination can go — when has_more becomes false, stop; do not assume unlimited depth.

Success Criteria

response.error !== true && response.count >= 1 && response.products.every(p => p.id && p.title && p.currency)

For legitimate "no results" outcomes (count == 0 && has_more == false without an error field), the capability is considered to have executed successfully with an empty result set.

Known Limitations

• Non-US country regions require the browser's outbound IP to originate from (or be accepted by) the target region. From a US-based IP, country_code values other than US typically return "No results found" or trigger a captcha wall. To collect data for other regions, use a stealth browser bound to a matching country dynamic proxy
• The unauthenticated public search page returns a hard cap of ~30 products per URL request; deeper pagination beyond has_more == false is not supported through the SSR path
• First-time visits from a fresh IP may trigger a slider/puzzle captcha before the search page loads; auto-solve does not cover this widget, so remote-assist is required for the first request from a new IP
• Some fields exposed by the original inspiration source (biz_type, commission_rate, first_time / last_time timestamps, week_sales, week_sold_count, total_sales) are seller-back-office data and are NOT available from the public search page; those fields are intentionally omitted
• min_price and max_price both reflect the current sale price returned by the page; multi-SKU price ranges are represented via the skus array

Execution Efficiency

• Batch orchestration: Write a bash script to loop through the command templates serially within a single session; do not parallelize within one browser (prone to triggering anti-scraping restrictions). Refer to rate information in "Known Limitations" above to add appropriate intervals. To increase throughput, open multiple stealth browser sessions and distribute work across them — each session has an independent fingerprint so rate limits apply per session
• Test before batch execution: After writing a batch script, you must first test with 1-2 items to verify the script runs correctly; only then run the full batch. Never skip testing and execute in batch directly
• Reduce redundant pre-operations: When multiple keywords need to run against the same country region, keep the same session open and only re-navigate; do not re-open the browser per keyword
• Error resumption: Save results item by item during batch processing; on failure, resume from the breakpoint rather than starting over

Experience Notes

Path: {working-directory}/browser-act-skill-forge-memories/tiktok-shop-search-scraper-tiktok-shop-search.memory.md (working directory is determined by the Agent running the Skill, typically the project root or current working directory)

Before execution: If the file exists, read it first — it records unexpected situations encountered during past executions (e.g., a strategy has become ineffective); adjust strategy order accordingly.

After execution: If an unexpected situation is encountered (strategy became ineffective, page redesigned, anti-scraping upgraded, better path discovered), append a line: {YYYY-MM-DD}: {what happened} → {conclusion}

Normal execution does not write to the file. Do not record what keywords were used or how many results were returned — those are task outputs, not experience.
