Getting an error message saying "Invalid TikTok URL" when trying to download a clip.

Technical Solution & Action Steps

Ensure you are copying the full link directly from the TikTok app Share button or the browser URL bar.

Verify that the TikTok account is set to Public. Private posts cannot be processed by web tools.
Ensure your link is clean without tracking query strings (e.g., strip ?is_from_webapp=1 if pasting manually).
Confirm your internet connection or try loading the link in an incognito/private browser tab to bypass stale local cache.
