Upload a Draft to the Creator Inbox

Upload a video as an inbox draft and poll until it reaches the inbox.

  1. Query the creator's content posting settings before sending a draft to their inbox.
  2. Initiate an inbox upload that pulls the video from the supplied URL so the user can review and publish it from the TikTok app.
  3. Poll the publish status until the draft has been delivered to the user's inbox, the job completes, or it fails.
What you'll need to have ready
  • accessToken: OAuth 2.0 user access token with video.upload scope.
  • videoUrl: Publicly reachable URL of the video to pull into the inbox draft.
