TikTok Capture: Short Video Metadata Collection

Why do you have to use a proxy IP for short video metadata collection?

Recently, a lot of data analytics people have been asking about scripting TikTok videos and getting banned. it's like wearing a cotton jacket in the middle of the summer....airtightYou think about it. Think about it, the same IP address click click fierce brush, the platform does not block you block who? This is the time to rely onproxy IPto take cover.

To give a real example, last week there is a competitor analysis of friends, two days in a row with their own broadband to climb the data, the third day directly 404. later changed the ipipgo dynamic residential agent, hourly automatic IP, to now two weeks is still stable. This gap, with the abacus and computer speed than like.

The Three Fateful Things About Choosing a Proxy IP

Agent service providers on the market more like a night market kebab stall, how to pick? Remember these three points:

In particular.ipipgo's smart rotation featureIt can automatically adjust the frequency of IP replacement according to the anti-climbing strategy of the target website. It's like installing an autopilot for the collection script, and automatically changing lanes when it encounters the risk of banning.

Hands-on with agent acquisition environment

Here's a chestnut in Python, suppose you want to capture the plays and counts of videos:

import requests
from random import choice

 The format of the proxies pool provided by ipipgo
proxies_pool = [
    "http://user:pass@us1.ipipgo.com:3128",
    "http://user:pass@uk2.ipipgo.com:3128", ...
     ... Other nodes
]

def get_video_data(video_id):
    proxy = {"https": choice(proxies_pool)}
    url = f "https://api.tiktok.com/video/{video_id}/stats"

    try.
        resp = requests.get(url, proxies=proxy, timeout=10)
        return resp.json()
    except Exception as e.
        print(f "Request failed, automatic IP switching | error message: {str(e)}")
        return get_video_data(video_id) Recursive Retry

Be careful to set theRandom Waiting TimeDon't make a continuous request as if you're being rushed. It is recommended to add atime.sleep(random.uniform(1,3)), camouflaging human operational rhythm.

First Aid Guide for Veteran Drivers Rollover

Q: Obviously used proxy IP or still blocked?
A: 80% are using low quality transparent proxies, ipipgo's high stash of proxies will completely hide the original IP, even the X-Forwarded-For header is processed

Q: The collection speed is like a snail's crawl?
A: Check the geographic location of the proxy server and choose a node that is close to the target server. ipipgo's intelligent routing can automatically match the optimal route.

Q: Account suddenly login abnormality?
A: different services to use different IP pools, registration, login, collection of these operations have to use different segments of the IP, ipipgo support service isolation configuration

Why the death of ipipgo?

Used 7 or 8 proxy services and ended up locking up ipipgo because of these points:
1. Real Life Housing IPThe platform can't tell if it's a real person or a machine.
2. Failure to reconnect automaticallyIt's not like some service providers who break down and then go on a rampage.
3. volumetric billingFlexibility and small-scale testing without the heartache

The last time I helped a client to do global trend analysis, I needed to cut the IP of a dozen countries at the same time. ipipgo's global node library directly selects the country + city, which is more convenient than ordering takeout and selecting the address. The most important thing isThe success rate is 98%., which is kind of tops in the agency industry.

Honestly, doing data collection is like fighting a guerrilla war, the key has to beHide well and run fast.. Choosing the right proxy IP service can make you go three years less. Don't look at all kinds of free proxies flying all over the place now, when you are really blocked and blocked IP, you will know how fragrant the professional services are.
