Posting to TikTok
Connect your TikTok to SocialBee
You'll be able to connect both Personal and Business profiles in SocialBee.
Go to the SocialBee dashboard here, and scroll to the bottom of the page to connect your TikTok profile.
You will be prompted to authorize SocialBee the needed permissions. To do that, click on “Authorize” and wait to be redirected back to our platform.
Once you've connected your account, you'll be able to see it in the SocialBee dashboard.

Create a post for TikTok
Creating a post for TikTok is not too different from creating a post for other social – you just need to keep in mind whether the post will be shared directly or via reminder on our mobile app.
Click on the interactive screen below to see the steps, or scroll down to the written instructions.
Add a post in SocialBee using the Post Editor.
Select your TikTok profile and add your content (video or photos, and a caption).
Select who can view your post from the menu at the top-right corner of the text box. You can make your post public, visible to people you follow and who follow you back ("Mutual follow friends"), or visible only to yourself ("Only me").
The Content Disclosure Setting
To attract more transparency on the platform, TikTok has introduced a setting that allows creators to disclose whether their content is promotional or not. This feature is also available in SocialBee.
After creating a post, toggle on "Content disclosure" found under the text box in your Post Editor.
Depending on your selection, various labels will be applied to your published video:
- "Your brand" → the "Promotional content" label will be added.
- "Branded content" → the "Paid partnership" label will be applied.
- "Your brand" and "Branded content" → the video will be labeled as "Paid partnership."
⚠️ Note ⚠️
Once you toggle on "Content disclosure", you will have to choose at least one of the available options or you will receive the following error: You need to indicate if your content promotes yourself, a third party, or both.
Posting to TikTok via Reminders
Whenever your media files exceed TikTok's posting limitations, the post will automatically be set to publish via Reminders.
When this happens, you will see a red mobile phone at the bottom right corner of your post.
You will also see one in your category view, right next to the profile icon that will post via Reminders. In this case, the TikTok profile.
To post your TikTok content, follow all the steps described in our article about using SocialBee's mobile app to set up reminders and manage your posts inside the app.
