Platform
TikTok scheduler, gated
TikTok publishing is gated and not available yet. The TikTok lane exists in SignalDeck, but it refuses to publish until its capability evidence is verified, and TikTok accounts cannot be connected through the standard flow today. Here is what the lane needs, what it is designed to do, and what you can use in the meantime.
TikTok lane status
Where TikTok stands.
Publishing refuses until gated
Every TikTok publish returns an unsupported result with the reason. Nothing is queued to TikTok and nothing is shown as published.
Needs a customer-owned approved app
Composio managed OAuth is not available for TikTok. Direct posting needs your own TikTok app, approved for and granted the video.publish scope.
Private-only until audited
TikTok limits unaudited apps to private visibility, so public posting depends on your app passing TikTok's audit.
Caption limit on record
The lane's capability record sets captions at 2,200 characters. Video and photo formats are marked unverified and are refused.
Status from TikTok, not assumptions
TikTok processes posts asynchronously. The lane is built to record the publish job and look up its status, and never to treat a submitted job as published.
Free creative tools today
SignalDeck's free TikTok tools, such as the safe-zone checker and caption tools, work in the browser without an account.
Formats and limits
TikTok formats in the capability record.
These are recorded so the lane can be enabled with real limits. None of them can be published today.
Short video
Unverified. Needs an approved app with video.publish; refused today.
Photo posts
Unverified. Refused today.
Caption
Up to 2,200 characters.
Alt text
Not supported.
Text-only posts
Not supported.
What it takes to open the lane
The gate for TikTok.
Approved app
A TikTok app owned by the customer, approved for direct posting with video.publish granted.
Verified formats
Each format moves from unverified to documented only with evidence from real, sanitized provider responses.
Same ledger as every lane
Once open, TikTok posts use the same version, approval, intent, attempt, and receipt records as the live lanes, including reconciliation of uncertain writes.
Lane status
TikTok is a later, gated lane.
Available today
Free browser tools for TikTok creative. Publishing to the live lanes: Instagram, Facebook Pages, LinkedIn, and YouTube.
Gated
All TikTok publishing and the TikTok connection.
Not supported
Text-only posts, alt text, and treating a submitted job as a published post.

FAQ
Frequently asked
Can I schedule TikTok posts in SignalDeck today?
No. The TikTok lane refuses to publish until its formats are verified, and TikTok accounts cannot be connected through the standard flow yet.
Why can't SignalDeck use a shared TikTok app?
Composio managed OAuth is not available for TikTok. Direct posting requires a customer-owned app approved for video.publish.
Will posts be public?
TikTok limits unaudited apps to private visibility. Public posting depends on your app passing TikTok's audit.
What is the caption limit?
2,200 characters, per the lane's capability record.
Does SignalDeck check TikTok safe zones?
The free TikTok safe-zone checker is available in the browser. It is a preparation tool, not part of a TikTok publishing flow, because that flow is not open yet.
