Authorise access
You will be redirected to TikTok for Business’s authorisation screen. Sign in with the TikTok for Business account that has access to the ad accounts you want to manage in TheOptimizer.
Review permissions and complete
TikTok will display a summary of the permissions being requested. These allow TheOptimizer to read and manage your ad campaigns via the TikTok Marketing API. Review the permissions and click Confirm to complete the authorisation.
Connection confirmed
TheOptimizer shows a confirmation screen once the connection is established. Initial sync takes up to 20–30 minutes. Your campaigns and ads may not appear immediately — this is expected. Give it up to half an hour before troubleshooting.
If your TikTok for Business account manages multiple ad accounts, all of them will be pulled in and listed under this integration after the initial sync.
What Permissions Are Granted
TheOptimizer requests the following TikTok permissions:- Read ad campaigns — retrieve campaign structure, ad groups, and ad creative data
- Manage ad campaigns — update campaign status, budgets, and bids via the TikTok Marketing API
- Read performance metrics — access impressions, clicks, spend, and conversion data
Next Steps
- Connect a tracking platform to bring conversion and revenue data into your campaign reports
