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 to create your post (add your caption and video).
Preview your post using the preview found on the right side of your screen.
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 you add multiple videos or multiple images, the post will automatically be set to publish via Reminders.
So, make sure you have followed all the steps described in the article focused on our mobile app.
When this happens, you will see a 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.
In the SocialBee Mobile App
Like with any other profile that posts via Reminders, once you receive the notification and open it, you'll be able to preview the post details in our mobile app. You'll see a thumbnail of the video, the caption, and the date and hour at which it was scheduled.
The next step is to tap on "Share Post" and you will see two prompts. First of all, you'll have to check that you are logged into the correct profile in your TikTok app.
Then, you will receive a confirmation that your caption has been copied.
Once you click "OK" the TikTok app will open with the file(s) all loaded up.
In the TikTok App
Here, you have full access to all the TikTok features, but we usually recommend keeping things simple. Click Next (at the top right corner) after you've confirmed that the right file(s) have been added.
Then, you can add a sound, text, effects, and any other in-app features you would normally use in TikTok. Once you're done (or to skip it entirely), click "Next".
The final step is to add your caption, tag people (if any), and set your final settings for the post. Once that's completed, click done and you should see the post on your profile within seconds!
