Limited Audience Data

TikTok's API provides limited demographic information:

Note: The following audience data points are not available through TikTok's API:

  • Age demographics
  • Gender distribution
  • Geographic distribution
  • Peak activity times

For these data gaps, we provide a manual data entry flow which can be used to fill the gaps based on your own analytics or third-party tools.

Data Limitations & Manual Entry

Understanding TikTok's Restrictions

TikTok's Business API has more restrictive data sharing policies compared to other platforms. This means detailed demographic breakdowns are not accessible through automated integration.

Manual Data Entry Flow

When demographic data is not available through the API, Mediaweb provides an intuitive manual entry system:

  1. Access Manual Entry

    • Navigate to your TikTok integration settings
    • Click "Manual Data Entry" for unavailable metrics
  2. Enter Demographic Data

    • Input age group percentages based on your TikTok Analytics
    • Add gender distribution if known
    • Include geographic data from your business insights
    • Set peak activity times based on your posting analytics
  3. Data Validation

    • System validates entries for logical consistency
    • Provides suggestions based on industry benchmarks
    • Allows for periodic updates as your audience evolves

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  • Connection Failures: Verify TikTok Business account status
  • Data Sync Delays: Check API rate limits and retry
  • Missing Metrics: Confirm account has sufficient data history
