Manual Posting vs Automated Distribution
Manual Method
- ✗Upload the same video to Facebook after posting to TikTok
- ✗Copy and reformat captions for each platform
- ✗Constantly context-switch between apps
- ✗Risk forgetting to post to Facebook
- ✗Spend 10-15 minutes per post managing distribution
- ✗Miss peak posting times on Facebook
PostOnce Automation

- ✓Captions automatically adapted for Facebook
- ✓Stay in your favorite platform's workflow
- ✓Every TikTok post automatically appears on Facebook
- ✓Set up once in under 60 seconds
- ✓Consistent posting schedule maintained automatically
Manual posting might work when you're just starting out, but as your content volume grows, automation becomes essential. The difference isn't just time saved—it's the ability to maintain a consistent multi-platform presence without burning out.
How to Set Up TikTok to Facebook Automation
Connect TikTok and Facebook
Link both social accounts to PostOnce using secure OAuth authorization.
TikTok uses platform-specific OAuth and Facebook requires standard authorization. Both connect in seconds.
Configure your automation rules
Choose to crosspost everything or filter by hashtags, content type, or custom rules.
Your TikTok captions fit within Facebook's limits, so default settings work great.
Post on TikTok as usual
Create content on TikTok and PostOnce handles Facebook distribution.
Your 9:16 TikTok content is automatically reformatted to 16:9 for Facebook.
Flexible Automation Options
Control exactly how your TikTok content gets distributed to Facebook with powerful automation rules.
Post Everything
Every TikTok post automatically goes to Facebook
Filter by Hashtag
Use specific hashtags to control what gets crossposted to Facebook
Custom Rules
Set advanced filters based on your TikTok to Facebook workflow needs
Most creators use hashtag filtering to maintain control over their crossposting workflow. For instance, you might want all your TikTok tutorials to go to Facebook, but keep personal content separate. Simply add a specific hashtag like #autopost to your TikTok caption, and only those posts will be distributed.
If you want to repurpose content from TikTok to Facebook, you can also customize how captions, formats, and media are adapted for each platform's unique audience and requirements.
