What TikTok message types appear in Sprout and what actions can I take?

The following TikTok message types appear in the Smart Inbox. For these message types, you can respond and take additional actions. You can also take action on these messages using Sprout's iOS and Android apps.

Note: Only organic messages appear in the Smart Inbox.

• Network: The social media network
• Message Type: The type of message listed
• Available in Inbox: The message type that appears in the Smart Inbox. If this is checked, Sprout expects to receive that message type. If this is marked with the symbol, Sprout doesn’t expect to receive the message type.
• Update Schedule: How often Sprout updates data and the kind of data updated.
• Backfill: How far back Sprout can provide data upon profile connection.
• Top-level comment: The "first-level" of comments under a post (i.e. a comment that is responding to the post, not another comment).

For information about message types on other social networks:

• Instagram
• Facebook
• YouTube
• LinkedIn

On each top-level comment, Sprout will fetch the 90 most recent comment replies for that comment.

Using the Smart Inbox you can reply to comments left on your TikTok videos. Navigate to Smart Inbox > All Messages to view your TikTok comments.

From the Sources dropdown in the Smart Inbox, select the TikTok profiles you want to review and respond to comments from.

Click to reply to a comment. You can include a Saved Reply or an emoji in your response. You can also include TikTok users in your Contact Lists or leverage any of the Sprout help desk or Salesforce integrations with user information, too.

You can also:
