How do I check if my TikTok video upload is done?

Short answer: You can get publish status in TikTok by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the TikTok Get Publish Status action to a workflow, map its 1 input from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about Get Publish Status.

What does the Get Publish Status action do in TikTok?
Polls the publish_id from Init Video Upload to track the video's processing state (PROCESSING_DOWNLOAD, PROCESSING_UPLOAD, PUBLISH_COMPLETE, FAILED). Poll every 10 to 30 seconds.
What inputs does Get Publish Status require?
Required: Publish ID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if TikTok returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does Get Publish Status support batch operations?
Yes. Run Get Publish Status inside a Loop node to process arrays. TinyCommand handles TikTok's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
