Lead Capture from TikTok Conversations

When a TikTok user interacts through DMs or comments, Kyrios automatically creates or updates a contact record, allowing the interaction to be tracked through pipelines, workflows, and reporting.


Common Issues and Fixes

TikTok trigger does not fire

Cause: TikTok Messaging is not connected.
Fix: Reconnect TikTok Messaging under Settings → Integrations.

Workflow runs but message is not delivered

Cause: TikTok requires the user to have messaged the account within the allowed response window.
Fix: Ensure automation is triggered within TikTok’s messaging response limits.

Comments automation does not respond

Cause: Post filter is too restrictive.
Fix: Remove the post filter or confirm the correct post is selected.


Best Practices for TikTok Automation

  • Use separate workflows for DMs and comments.

  • Personalize replies using dynamic fields.

  • Avoid over-automation to prevent spam-like behavior.

  • Monitor workflow execution logs regularly.
