TikTok

Connect your TikTok account to direct-post videos from FireBreath. New TikTok connections use Direct Post with file upload, while older sandbox connections that only have video.upload still fall back to inbox drafts.

How to Connect

  1. 1Go to Accounts and click "Connect Account".
  2. 2Select TikTok from the provider list.
  3. 3Authorize FireBreath via the TikTok OAuth flow.
  4. 4Grant the requested permissions for direct posting.
  5. 5Publish or schedule the video in FireBreath. TikTok processes the upload asynchronously after FireBreath sends it.

Notes

TikTok sync and analytics stay disabled until video.list is approved. Reconnect any older sandbox account so the token grants video.publish.

Troubleshooting

My video upload seems stuck.

TikTok processes uploaded videos asynchronously. If the video does not appear right away, wait a minute and refresh. Older sandbox-era connections may still create inbox drafts until you reconnect the account.

Video format not supported.

TikTok supports MP4 and WebM formats. Videos should be between 1 second and 10 minutes long with a minimum resolution of 360p.
