TikTok Business API SDK

Introduction

The TikTok Business API SDK is a comprehensive suite of client libraries that can help our developers and partners to integrate with TikTok API for Business easily and faster in a standardized way. It is the ultimate solution for developers looking to streamline the integration process and enhance productivity. Our SDK, launching in phases, includes APIs for Authentication, Campaign Creation, Reporting, Business Center and more. For details, please refer to this page.

Quick Start

Java, Python and Javascript are among the most popular languages for TikTok business third-party developers. The TikTok Business API SDK is a code package that provides an interface between your application and Tiktok's business APIs for these three languages. This tutorial provides the basic knowledge needed to access to our SDK and includes sample code for your reference.

Version

• API version: 0.1.0 Beta (in Beta Test)

Prerequisites

1. Create a TikTok For Business account
2. Register as a developer
3. Create a developer app
4. Obtain authorization
5. Obtain authentication

Integration with Java SDK

Version requirements

• Java 1.7+
• Maven

Integration Steps:

1. Download the TikTok Business API SDK

    git clone https://github.com/tiktok/tiktok-business-api-sdk.git
   

2. Set up your local environment

   • Add this dependency to your project's POM and load the maven changes if you are using Maven, otherwise you could skip this step.

    <dependency>
      <groupId>io.swagger</groupId>
      <artifactId>business_api_client</artifactId>
      <version>1.0.0</version>
      <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>
   

   • Build the SDK jar file with following the commands

    cd your_path/tiktok-business-api-sdk/java_sdk
    mvn install package
   

   • Manually import the JAR files

     Note: If you are using IntelliJ, within your project, click on File-> Project Structure -> Modules and click the '+' to add the jar you built in the previous step.

   • Install the SDK package within your project

    cd your project
    mvn install package
   

3. Run and test the SDK

   • Create a class and import it to the location where you're able to run it. Below are the sample codes for your reference.

    import io.swagger.client.api.ToolApi;
    import java.util.*;
    import static org.junit.Assert.*;
    import business_api.Response;
   
   
    public class Tool {
   
        ToolApi apiInstance;
        String accessToken = "Your_access_token";
        String advertiserId = "Your_advertiser_id";
        public Tool() {
            ToolApi instance = new ToolApi();
            this.apiInstance = instance;
        }
        public void ToolLanguageTest() {
            try {
                Response result = apiInstance.toolLanguage(advertiserId, accessToken);
                assertNotNull(result);
                System.out.println(result);
                System.out.println("Success ToolApi#toolLanguage");
   
            } catch (Exception e) {
                System.err.println("Exception when calling ToolApi#toolLanguage");
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
     }
   

Integration with Python SDK

Version requirements

• Python 3.4+

Integration Steps:

1. Download the TikTok Business API SDK

    git clone https://github.com/tiktok/tiktok-business-api-sdk.git
   

2. Set up the Python virtual environment by using the following command. If you already have your own virtual environment, please skip this step and source into your own project.

    python3 -m venv your_virtual_env
    source your_virtual_env/bin/activate
   

3. Set Local env and install dependency with following commands

   export PYTHONPATH=your_path/tiktok-business-api-sdk:your_path/tiktok-business-api-sdk/python_sdk:your_path/tiktok-business-api-sdk/python_sdk/business_api_client
   cd your_path/tiktok-business-api-sdk/python_sdk
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   python3 setup.py install
   

4. Run and test the Python SDK. Below are the sample codes for your reference.

    from __future__ import print_function
    import business_api_client
    from pprint import pprint
   
    TEST_ADVERTISER_ID = 'Your_advertiser_id'
    TEST_ACCESS_TOKEN = 'Your_access_token'
   
   
    def test_tool_language():
    # create an instance of the API class
        api_instance = business_api_client.ToolApi()
        advertiser_id = TEST_ADVERTISER_ID # str |
        access_token = TEST_ACCESS_TOKEN # str |
   
        try:
            api_response = api_instance.tool_language(advertiser_id, access_token)
            pprint(api_response)
        except ApiException as e:
            print("Exception when calling ToolApi->tool_language: %s\n" % e)
   

Integration with JavaScript SDK

Version requirements

• Javascript v13+, up to v18
• npm

Integration Steps:

1. Download the TikTok Business API SDK

    git clone https://github.com/tiktok/tiktok-business-api-sdk.git
   

2. Set Local env and install the dependencies

   • Install js-sdk dependencies

    cd your_path/tiktok-business-api-sdk/js_sdk
    npm install
   

   • In your project, run the following command

    npm install your_path/tiktok-business-api-sdk/js_sdk --save
   

   • In your project, add the following code in package.json to set js_sdk as module

    {
     ...
       "type": "module",
     ...
    }
   

3. Run and test JavaScript SDK

   • Import the SDK to your JavaScript file and add the methods you would like to use. Below are the sample codes for your reference.

    import * as js_sdk from "business_api_client"
   
    let api = new js_sdk.ToolApi()
    let advertiserId = "Your_advertiser_id"; 
    let accessToken = "Your_accessToken_id"; 
    api.toolLanguage(advertiserId, accessToken, (error, data, response) => {
      if (error) {
        console.error(error);
      } else {
        console.log('toolLanguage called successfully. Returned data: ' + JSON.stringify(data));
