TikTok Public surfaces publicly visible creator-account data for TikTok handles designated as monitoring targets. Connecting it brings public profile statistics and per-video performance into Adriel dashboards for competitive monitoring, influencer analytics, and brand-mention tracking on creators the workspace does not own.

​
Before you connect

The following are required:
  • One or more public TikTok handles to monitor.
  • Workspace permission to add a new data source.
Because TikTok’s official API only permits access to accounts that have authorized the requesting application, public-creator monitoring runs through a platform-managed proxy that aggregates publicly available TikTok content. No TikTok sign-in, OAuth flow, or API key entry is required.

Connect TikTok Public

1

Create the data source

On the Data Sources page, search for TikTok Public and select it. Fill in the Connection Name field with any name and click Submit.
2

Configure the monitored accounts

On the data source settings, complete the two required fields:
  • TikTok users: Enter the username of each TikTok account to connect, without a leading @. Separate multiple usernames with a , (comma) — up to 15 per data source. Example: txt.bighitent,ironman199911,official_nct.
  • Human readable name: Enter an identifiable name for the data source.
3

Submit

Click Submit to complete the connection. Initial data availability can take up to one business day.

​
What gets imported

Public profile snapshots — follower count, total likes, video count, and verified status — are captured for each monitored handle, alongside per-video performance such as views, likes, comments, shares, duration, and publish timestamp. Values are refreshed daily and stored as snapshots, so historical data accumulates from the date a handle is first added. For the complete metric and breakdown list, see the TikTok Public data reference.

​
Troubleshooting

The handle may be mistyped or include a leading @. Re-enter the handle exactly as it appears on TikTok, without the @ prefix.
The account may have been switched to private or deleted. Once an account is non-public, new snapshots cannot be retrieved. Existing historical data remains queryable.
If a monitored TikTok username changes, the data source linked to the old username must be recreated with the new handle.
The platform-managed proxy enforces aggregate usage limits across all customers using the connector. Heavy concurrent load can produce throttling or temporarily stale data. Contact support if throttling is suspected on a large monitoring list.
Public-creator data exposes only what TikTok displays on the public web. Audience demographics, traffic sources, and impression breakdowns require the creator’s own analytics and are available through the TikTok Organic connector for owned accounts.
