Schedule a video or image post to TikTok from your calendar. Available on Starter, Professional and Suite. First, connect your TikTok account.
Schedule a TikTok post
- From your calendar, click + Create in the upper-right corner.

For file types and sizes, see Image, video and GIF sizes for social messages.
Choose publishing settings
The settings are a little different for video posts and image posts.
Video posts
- Choose who can view the post: public, friends or private. You must choose one before you can save.
- Choose the interactions to allow: comments, duets and stitches.
- If the post promotes a brand, product or service, turn on the toggle to disclose it.
- Choose a thumbnail from your video.
TikTok doesn't accept an uploaded image as a video thumbnail. Choose a frame from your video instead.
Image posts
- Enter a title. Titles can be up to 90 characters.
- If you want TikTok to add music, select the auto add music checkbox.
- Choose who can view the post: public, friends or private. You must choose one before you can save.
- Choose whether to allow comments.
- If the post promotes a brand, product or service, turn on the toggle to disclose it.
With auto add music selected, TikTok adds one of its most popular songs to your image post. CoSchedule can't choose the song.
Add more to your message
- Click Social Assistant (wand icon) to draft the text with AI Social Assistant.

What you can't do with TikTok posts

After your post publishes
A published message can't be edited. It opens as a read-only preview, and Save is replaced by View Post, or by Profile Page for a private TikTok post.
To see how the post performed, see View analytics on a social message or campaign.
