Hi Folks, I used this before, I I thought there was the option of uploading multiple tiktok usernames. I cannot seem to see it.

Hi, yes the 'usernames' input option is an array so can have as many usernames as you like.

Depends how you are calling the actor to run but using the interface you can just use the 'Add' button to add more rows, see screenshot attached for an example with 3 entries. Similarly if you are using the JSON editor (or calling via API) you just need to add entries in a valid JSON array, see other screenshot attached.

Its the bulk edit button I cannot see for some reason, its on your screenshot.

Hmm thats strange, maybe something on your account in particular. Could you provide a screenshot of the whole page that you see so I have a better reference.

Ah right ok that is just related to Apify's UI. If you see the text above the large text field it states "There are too many items to show the user interface...".

Basically when you have a large amount of usernames Apify's UI will automatically change the text box to be the 'JSON Editor' version. At that point the 'Bulk edit' button will not be available. Now you could just edit the lines in the JSON editor and put one username per line similar to what is shown in your screenshot.

Another option would be to delete all the input in that text field, at that point you should be able to change back to the "Regular editor", see screenshot attached where I have deleted all the JSON and can then click the button to return to the regular editor (note: Apify will give you a warning about invalid JSON, click 'Confirm'). Then in the regular editor you will be able to add the usernames one at a time or using the 'Bulk Edit' button.

Hope that helps, I'll close this issue for now but let me know if you still struggling

Sorry, I am not seeing a "Confirm" button, I have removed all the items, it just says Invalid JSON.

Click the blue text that says "Switch to regular editor", then it should appear with an overlay. You want to use the "Regular Editor" to see the Bulk Edit button.

In the screenshot you posted try pressing the 'Show UI' button.

ok this worked, I appreciate this is not a you issue, but this is a terrible user experience, it might be worthwhile you letting apify know.
