Connect Your TikTok Account to Collect Content

Connecting your TikTok account allows Social Native to collect user-generated video content from @mentions. The process is similar to connecting a Facebook account and requires a public TikTok profile.

If your account permissions change or expire, you may need to reconnect it.

About Content Collection:

  • Videos only: TikTok’s API does not support photos.

  • @Mentions: Content is collected when users mention your connected TikTok account.

  • Blocklist / Whitelist: Filtering works the same way as with other collectors.
