Today, I got the same error as you. Did you fix this error ? @khatiwadaaj

I gave up on this package and created my own custom solution.

Hello, I am a developer who needs a TikTok scraper.
I also encountered the same error as this issue. Can you share how you solved it?

I looked for it in your repository, but I couldn't find it.
I would really appreciate your help.

I'm also getting this on fetchUser

It seems that <script id="SIGI_STATE" type="application/json"> no longer exists in the response from tiktok. Perhaps tiktok-scraper-ts needs to be updated to use <script id="__UNIVERSAL_DATA_FOR_REHYDRATION__" type="application/json"> instead? cc @naseif
