Connect Instagram, TikTok and X

Connect the three live TimeToPost scheduler platforms with OAuth, understand token refresh, and know when a reconnect is required.

Live scheduler support

TimeToPost currently markets three live everyday scheduler platforms: Instagram, TikTok and X. This page covers those three only.

Use the dashboard integrations area to connect accounts. Each platform opens its own OAuth consent screen, then returns you to TimeToPost with a connected status.

Connect each account

Repeat the connect flow once per account you want available in the composer.

  1. Open Dashboard, then Integrations or Settings, then Integrations depending on your dashboard view.
  2. Choose Instagram, TikTok or X.
  3. Approve the provider permission screen.
  4. Return to TimeToPost and confirm the account appears as connected.
  5. Create a small test draft before scheduling a public post.

Token health

Short-lived provider tokens can show an old expiry time while still being healthy because TimeToPost refreshes them at publish time. Reconnect only when the status is expired, error, or last refresh failed.

Instagram requires a Professional account for API publishing. TikTok and X use the account you authorize through their own login screens.
