Multistream to TikTok
TikTok has not rolled out live streaming to everyone yet. You may not have access.
TikTok has slowly begun offering the ability to go live on their platform with third-party streaming software using Custom RTMP. There are specific requirements for gaining access.
To stream from a computer you must have access to the TikTok Live Studio. TikTok has yet to publish official guidelines on how creators can get access to TikTok Live RTMP. However, many creators who reach between 25,000 followers and more have seen the option to live stream activated in their accounts.
Here’s how you check and see if you qualify to live stream:
Open the TikTok mobile app and select the plus sign at the bottom to create a new post
Swipe over to the LIVE option.
If you are eligible to stream from your desktop, you should see three options: Device camera, Mobile gaming, Live Studio. If Live Studio appears, you are eligible to stream to TikTok from your desktop.
7 Copy the URL and Stream Key provided by TikTok, and paste them into the corresponding sections on LiveMeUp. Click Update when done.
