How do I post TikTok videos?

After your TikTok profile is connected to Sprout, you can start posting videos and captions to your profile.

You can’t record or create a TikTok video within Sprout. Ensure you have your video saved to a location, like Dropbox or Google Drive, where you can access it to post.

To post an already created video to TikTok:

  1. Click Screen_Shot_2022-05-11_at_9.04.47_AM.png to open Compose.

How do I see when my TikTok videos are scheduled?

After you schedule your TikTok videos, you can view the Publishing Calendar to see your scheduled and published posts at-a-glance.

Navigate to Publishing > Calendar to view a List, Week or Month rundown of all your content across your social networks. If you want to hone in on your TikTok content, select your TikTok profiles from the Profiles dropdown in the Filter Menu. From there, you can select the post types you want to view along with any tags or labels.
