- API limits → Limitations on TikTok
Option 1: Create manually (Calendar or Posts)
A) Create a post in the Calendar
You can create posts directly in the Calendar.
- Month view: Hover over a day → plus (+)
- Week view: Hover over a day → Create post
The post editor then opens.
B) Create a post in "Posts"
Alternatively, go to the Posts area and click Create post in the top right.
In the post editor (for both options)
- Give the post a title.
- Select TikTok as the platform.
- Upload a video or photo (depending on the post type).
- Write the caption (yourself or with AI assistance).
- Set the TikTok options (e.g. visibility, comments, commercial content).
- (Optional) Add labels.
- (Optional, depending on your role) Request approvals.
- Schedule date & time or save as a draft.
Option 2: With AI Studio (AI Crew)
In AI Studio you share your idea directly with the AI Crew and have a post draft built from it in seconds.
You typically get:
- caption suggestions that match your goals
- wording that matches your brand voice
- variants (e.g. different hooks/CTAs)
Then you turn the draft into a post and schedule it or send it for approval (depending on your role).
