Motivational Auto Post
How it works

From authorization to a published video.

The full flow, including exactly what the app is permitted to do with a connected account and what it is not.

Connecting an account

Authorization is handled entirely by TikTok. The app only ever receives a scoped token.

  1. Start the connection

    The creator begins the connection from the app, which sends them to TikTok's own authorization URL.

  2. Log in on TikTok

    Login happens on TikTok's domain, on TikTok's page. Motivational Auto Post never sees, receives, or stores the account password.

  3. Approve the permission

    TikTok shows exactly what is being requested — the video.publish scope — and the creator approves or declines it.

  4. Return with a token

    TikTok redirects back to the app's callback with an authorization code, which is exchanged for an access token and refresh token used for future publishing.

Making and publishing a video

  1. Script

    A motivational script is generated from the supplied topic, or taken as provided.

  2. Render

    Visuals, music and word-timed captions are combined into one vertical MP4, then checked against TikTok's duration, codec and size limits.

  3. Upload

    The file is sent to TikTok's Content Posting API for the connected account, with the caption and the privacy level that account allows.

  4. Confirm

    The app polls TikTok until processing finishes and records the outcome. Failures keep TikTok's own error reason so they can be acted on.

What the app can and cannot do

It can

Upload and publish video to the single account that explicitly authorized it, and read back the publish status of those uploads.

It cannot

Read your messages, browse your followers, access any other account's data, change your profile, or act on an account after authorization is revoked.

Revoking access in TikTok (Settings › Security & permissions › Manage app permissions) immediately invalidates the stored token. No further posts can be made.
