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 run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message TikTok returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.

Does Get Publish Status support batch operations?

Run Get Publish Status inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within TikTok's rate limits.
