Auto-Scrape TikTok User Data via Dumpling AI & Segment in Airtable

 Overview

This n8n workflow automatically scrapes TikTok profile data using Dumpling AI and segments it in Airtable based on follower count. It monitors new entries in an Airtable table, fetches TikTok statistics for each username, and updates the same Airtable record with either basic or full data depending on the follower count.

This is ideal for influencer outreach, creator tracking, or campaign list building.
