How this automation works

Easily upload new video drafts to TikTok from your inbox. This Applet runs when you send an email to trigger@applet.ifttt.com and attaches a video file, uploading it to your TikTok drafts for later editing and posting. Perfect for creators who want to move videos from email to TikTok with zero manual effort. Customize the message to fit your tone. Note: Install the IFTTT app on the device(s) where you use TikTok.
