How to set up a secure data connection with TikTok through SignalSight
TikTok for Business offers many tools that let you share the actions people take on your website with TikTok. When you share these events with TikTok, you can better optimize your campaigns and measure ad performance.
This article describes how to setup a secure data connection through SignalSight. SignalSight supports the TikTok Pixel and Events API.
For more information on these connection tools, please review the following resources:
TikTok Events API Setup
You can benefit from 2 different methods in the SignalSight TikTok Events API creation process. The first is automatic setup and the other is manual. With automatic setup, you can speed up the process and complete the tracker creation process more easily.
You do not need to set up your TikTok Pixel separately as SignalSight will load it on your behalf.
Please follow these steps to install TikTok Events API on Signalsight:
Automatic Setup
You can take advantage of automatic TikTok installation in either an existing Tracker or in the Tracker Creation Wizard. If you're creating a Tracker for the first time and don't have one yet, you can initiate the setup process using the Tracker Creation Wizard.
You can enter your website address by selecting Website Javascript in the source creation, which is the first step of the Wizard. After you enter your site address, you can save the source and proceed to the next step.
In the new step, you can click the Add Destination button, select the TikTok Pixel from the Destination list, and then click the Create with TikTok button, where you can automatically install. After logging into your TikTok account, you will see a window like the one in the image.
To prepare your TikTok Pixel, first select your Ad Account and then choose the Pixel(s) associated with it from the current window. After that, proceed to the Destination step and select TikTok Events API from the list. To add another destination, click on "Add Destination" again. You should make this destination ready by selecting Advertiser and pixel again. In the last step, you can complete the wizard by giving the Tracker a name.
If you already have a Tracker, click Trackers on the left sidebar. Next, navigate to the Tracker where you want to add the integration, and on the right side of the Tracker detail page, add two new destinations. Click "Add New Destination," then select "Create a new" in the pop-up. From the list, select "TikTok Pixel" and click "Create with TikTok." After selecting the Advertiser and Pixel information, click "Create" to add your destination to the Tracker.
To select the TikTok Events API from the list, click "Add New Destination" and create a new one. Then, use "Create with TikTok" to establish the server-side connection in the Tracker, including the Advertiser and Pixel information. With this, your Tracker will be ready and you can move on to the GTM/Frontend Code Activation Transactions stage.
Manual Setup
Aside from automatic setup, you can also opt for manual setup using the TikTok Pixel ID and Access Token Creation method.
