Timeline (last 90 days)
Developer LMSlay has released the open-source Dify plugin TubeText, which connects four data tools to Dify.
TubeText provides four tools: TikTok Shop Products, AliExpress Search, Video Transcript, and Get Run Results.
The TikTok Shop Products tool supports only the US site, takes product, shop, or category links as input, and outputs price, discount, units sold, rating, per-SKU inventory, and shop statistics.
AliExpress Search supports input of up to 20 keywords and returns price, sales volume, rating, shipping country, Choice and promotional tags.
Video Transcript supports mixed input of YouTube and TikTok links and returns subtitles item by item, and with Whisper AI enabled it can perform speech transcription for videos without subtitles.
TubeText relies on Apify Actors to drive it, and the plugin itself only calls api.apify.com and does not log in to TikTok, AliExpress, or YouTube accounts.
The TubeText setup process has three steps: copy the API token in the Apify console under Settings → API & Integrations; install TubeText from the Dify Marketplace; and paste the token under Tools → TubeText → Authorize.
In testing, a single Video Transcript call with one YouTube link plus one TikTok link took 26 seconds, and the plugin splits the links into the YouTube and TikTok Actors for parallel execution.
Each TubeText call waits up to 240 seconds by default (Max Wait), and if the time limit is exceeded the task stays running on Apify and a run ID is returned immediately.
TubeText charges per result: YouTube transcription $4 per thousand, TikTok transcription $3 per thousand, AI transcription $0.006 per minute, TikTok Shop $4 per thousand products, and AliExpress $2.50 per thousand products.

TubeText has three usage limitations: TikTok Shop accepts only links or product IDs, does not support keyword search, and covers only the US site; AliExpress does not return product detail page information or shop names; and the plugin communicates only with the Apify API and does not involve logging in to platform accounts.
