Can't scrape data with 'user' command

Open mattosbruno opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Hey!

First of all, just wanted to say that the scraper is really great and that it has been helping me a lot to move towards a systematic approach to TikTok research.

While I've been experiencing no problem to scrape metadata from videos associated with specific hashtags, the same cannot be said about user metadata scraping. Whenever I try to run any user related command, I don't even get the default message that tells me that the scraper has started.

Do you know what my issues might be? I'll attach my terminal commands to make myself clear. Thank you!

Also same issue. I'm new to this project, and my collector only returns an empty array. I've tried multiple usernames (including "tiktok"). I've tried with and without by_user_id as well.

I believe this empty collector return problem has been with this repo for a year already and no one has gotten it to work
