'TikTokApi' object has no attribute 'browser'

[LikeADemonicMind]

Hi! I hope you're doing well.

I've seen that you updated PykTok on July and that save_tiktok_multi_page worked again, so I wanted to try it out! Unfortunately, I've got an error while trying to launch my code: 'TikTokApi' object has no attribute 'browser'

Here's my code: import nest_asyncio # needed because of the "asyncio.run() cannot be called from a running event loop pyktok" error nest_asyncio.apply() import pyktok as pyk pyk.save_tiktok_multi_page('yourgirlangeel', save_video=False,metadata_fn='tiktok.csv')

Here's the full cell output:

I've already tried the solution here #61 but it doesn't work for me... Here are the versions of all of my packages: pyktok : 0.0.29 beautifulsoup : 4.12.3 browser-cookie3 : 0.19.1 numpy : 1.26.4 pandas : 2.2.0 requests : 2.32.3 tiktokapi : 6.4.0 python version : 3.11.7

Thanks a lot for your work!

Hello. Can you please state the IDE and OS you are using? Thanks.

[LikeADemonicMind]

I'm working on Jupyter Lab and on Windows 10 Pro.

[dfreelon]

I just tested your code and it worked fine for me. You may need to try it out in a console or PowerShell window. You shouldn't need to run import nest_asyncio, it should work fine with the following two statements only.

[LikeADemonicMind]

You're right, I don't have this error anymore but get this one instead : TikTokApi.exceptions.EmptyResponseException: None -> TikTok returned an empty response

Can you give me the version of the TikTokApi you're using please?

[dfreelon]

That is an upstream error, which means the code did what it was supposed to but TikTok basically blocked you. Here are some solutions to try:

• Try from a different network (e.g. home vs. work)
• Use a VPN if you have access to one
• Try with the headless parameter set to False
• Try to download from a hashtag or specific video instead of a user just to see if you can get a valid result

[dfreelon]

Also I'm using TikTokApi 6.3.0

[LikeADemonicMind]

Thanks for your advices! I've downgraded TikTokApi. It works for hashtags and for some users but not all of them... I don't know why but I'll try to figure it out.

[dfreelon]

Good luck!

Thanks! So, I realized that it works for european creators (I'm in Europe) but not others... maybe a geographic limitation!

[dfreelon]

Interesting... you could potentially use a VPN to get around that.
