About TikTok
Login Kit for Web is a TikTok developer product that lets web applications authenticate users through TikTok and obtain an access token for the user's account. The documentation covers app registration, redirect URI configuration, and the OAuth authorization grant flow, including front-end integration of a login button and server-side handling of the authorization redirect, anti-forgery state tokens, and access token refresh before expiry.
It is intended for developers building web apps that need to offer "Continue with TikTok" login functionality. Requirements include registering the app in the TikTok developer portal to obtain a client key and secret, and configuring up to 10 static, HTTPS redirect URIs under 512 characters each, with no query parameters or URL fragments permitted.

- Issues an access_token for the TikTok user after successful authentication
