To add a link, proceed to the “Post” screen after editing your video. Tap on “More options”, select “Add link” (or “Website”), and paste your URL into the provided field. Tap “Done” to attach the link to your post. Note that this feature often requires a TikTok Business Account to be fully functional.
This guide provides the exact technical steps to attach a clickable URL to your video during the upload process as of January 2026.
Steps to Add a Link to Your Video
Follow these steps to include a web link in your video’s posting details:
- Prepare Your Content: Record or upload your video and complete all edits. Tap “Next” to reach the final posting screen.
- Access Advanced Options: Scroll down and tap on “More options” to expand the menu.
- Locate the Link Field: Tap on the “Add link” or “Website” button.
- Enter the URL: Carefully paste or type the full web address (e.g., https://yourlink.com) into the input box.
- Save the Link: Tap “Done” or “Save”. The link is now attached to the metadata of your video.
- Publish: Complete your caption and hashtags, then tap “Post”.
After posting, you can find your video with the active link on your profile.
What This Does NOT Do
This built-in feature is for attaching external web URLs only. It does not allow for linking to other social media profiles directly within the video frame, nor is it designed for creating “swipe-up” links, which are restricted to specific ad formats.
📅 Accuracy Check (January 2026): The placement of the “Add link” option within the “More options” menu and its requirement for professional account status have been verified against the latest 2026 TikTok mobile interface.
