TikTok have a new Content Posting API offering, with Direct Post, the businesses can easily post content directly from third-party platforms to TikTok. Direct Post increases the resources and tools the community can choose from to easily navigate every stage of the creation process both on and off the platform.
Direct Post allows you to post video content directly from third-party platforms to TikTok, with photo content coming soon. The feature builds on Share to TikTok integrations, providing the option to set captions, audience settings, and more within your third-party platform, sending it directly to TikTok through a single-click integration. Creators can also schedule long-form video content using Direct Post through social media management platforms.
To use Direct Post, creators need to connect their TikTok account to the third-party platform. From there, partners are vetted through an audit process before granting them access to Content Posting API. Once these steps are taken, the third-party platform has permission to post on their TikTok account whenever the creators try to export media to TikTok.
The launch comes with key partners, including Adobe. Through TikTok’s partnership with Adobe, creators can use the Direct Post feature in Adobe Premiere Pro and Adobe Express and share content directly to TikTok without leaving their workflow, making it easier than ever to create and share content.
Now more than ever, publishing content in real-time has become a necessity, and creators of all skill levels need tools that can empower them with greater efficiency and without constraints,” said Deepa Subramaniam, vice president, Creative Cloud product marketing at Adobe. “With the new Direct Post feature for TikTok available in Adobe Express and Premiere Pro, creators can continue to create standout content, but with increased speed and without any interruption to their creative workflows.
