Add TikTok support (limited API) #1263

Open snarfed opened 2 years ago

snarfed commented 2 years ago

Both backfeed and publish. TikTok currently has no open API for either, though, and I'm unlikely to add any new silos based on scraping. (Even if there is already a mature TikTok scraping community, and at least one full fledged startup with a commercial service.)

Hmm, it's actually not quite that bad. The open API does let you post videos and get webhook notifications for video uploads and other events. There's also a Business API (docs), which is much more full featured, but seems to require a business/ads account. That looks free and self serve, but they also have an API approval process, which looks like it includes human moderation.
