Grok Build

Asks for ideas and drafts

Social tools

MCP or HTTP, one API key

You approve

Review link, then Publish

Threads

Your feeds

TikTok, Reels, Threads, Bluesky

Your agent calls the Creative Tim Social tools, which prepare a draft. You approve it, and it is published to TikTok, Instagram Reels, Threads or Bluesky.

The one rule

An agent prepares and a person publishes. Grok Build can create drafts, but it cannot publish to TikTok, and it cannot approve anything on your behalf. You open the review link, check the post and click Publish.

What Grok Build can do

  • Check the rules

    Limits and approval rules for a network, before you make the video

    Video ideas with hook, script, video prompt, caption and hashtags

    social_generate_ideas

  • Import a video

    Host a video from a link in your own storage

    social_import_video

  • Upload a file

    Upload a video file directly

    social_get_upload_url

  • Create a draft

    Create a post draft. TikTok drafts come with a review link for you

  • List your posts

    Your posts and their status

    social_list_posts

  • Track status

    One post: processing, published (with link) or failed (with the reason)

    social_get_post_status

Try it

Paste this into Grok Build and fill in the blanks:

Prompt
Use the Creative Tim social tools. First check the requirements for TikTok. Then give me 5 video ideas for <my niche>. For the one I pick, import this video <video URL>, and create a TikTok draft with the caption. Give me the review link.
  1. Step 1

    Grok Build tells you the draft is waiting and gives you a link.

  2. Step 2

    Open it, review the post, publish.

  3. Step 3

    Posts then show their status (processing, published with a link, or failed with TikTok's own reason) in the Social Studio.

Questions

Can Grok Build publish to TikTok for me?

No. Grok Build can create a draft with the video and caption and give you a review link. You open it, check the settings TikTok allows for your account, and click Publish. TikTok requires the creator to approve each post, so no agent can do it for you.

Which networks can Grok Build prepare posts for?

TikTok, Instagram Reels, Threads and Bluesky. For networks other than TikTok, your own copilot or autopilot setting decides whether a draft waits for your approval or is scheduled directly.

What does it cost?

Posting and drafting are free. Generating ideas or video in Creative Tim uses credits from your plan.

Where does my API key go?

In the client's secret or header settings, never in a prompt. You can create and revoke keys on the API Keys page at any time.
