Videos Published as "Public" Are Only Visible to the User's Account

[israel177]

Hello @MiniGlome @KundKMC ,

I am using the Tiktok-uploader library to post videos on TikTok. The videos appear to be successfully published and are set to "public," but they are only visible when I am logged into my TikTok account. Other users cannot see the videos posted via the library, even though they can see videos that I post manually through the TikTok app.

Details:
Library: Tiktok-uploader
TikTok Account: [optionaouoptionb]
Video Status: Public
Visibility: The video is only visible to the user's account, even when set to "public."
Error/Logs: No error is returned, and the logs show no issues.
Propagation Delay: I have waited for 24 hours to see if the video becomes visible to others, but to no avail.
Checks Performed:
The video status is indeed "public."
There are no restrictions on my TikTok account.
The publication settings are correctly configured to make the video "public."
Other users have confirmed that they cannot see the video.
The library documentation has been consulted to troubleshoot the issue.

Questions:
Are there additional configurations or settings that need to be set to make videos visible to all users?
Are there any known restrictions or limitations of the TikTok API that could be causing this issue?
Are there any planned updates to the library that could address this issue?

Conclusion:
I would appreciate any assistance in resolving this issue or any additional information on how to make videos visible to all TikTok users. Thank you very much for your time and assistance.

I have the same issue

When uploading manually to the same account I have the same result. I think it might have to do with some sort of shadow ban from TikTok to protect bot spamming.

Did you see some changes after few days?

I didn't notice any change I even used the account manually by publishing videos for a week which didn't change I could see that with another repository which offers to do the same it works so I I can't understand why it doesn't work
