Browser Douyin Post
Publish images or videos to Douyin (æé³) creator platform via browser automation.
Workflow
Step 1: Connect to Chrome
browser(action="start", profile="user", target="host")
If failed with "attachOnly" error: Chrome is not running with debugging port.
â Ask user to run: & "C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --remote-debugging-port=9222
Step 2: Navigate to Douyin Creator Platform
Use a free tab (e.g., Tab 2) and navigate via JavaScript evaluation since navigate requires openclaw profile:
// First check tabs
browser(action="tabs", profile="user", target="host")// Focus a free tab
browser(action="focus", targetId="", profile="user", target="host")
// Then use JS to navigate (avoids SSRF blocks on navigate action)
browser(action="act", kind="evaluate", target="host", profile="user", fn="window.location.href = 'https://creator.douyin.com'")
Or if Douyin tab already exists, just focus it.
Step 3: Go to Image Upload Page
Once on creator.douyin.com:
1. Click the "髿ž
ååž" / "ååžåŸæ" menu button (ref 1_2)
2. Click "ååžåŸæ" menuitem
Step 4: Upload Image
The upload input (ref 3_10) only accepts files from C:\Users\wenxi\AppData\Local\Temp\openclaw\uploads\.
First copy the image to the uploads directory:
Copy-Item "" "C:\Users\wenxi\AppData\Local\Temp\openclaw\uploads\douyin-post.png" -Force
Then upload:
browser(action="upload", target="host", profile="user", inputRef="3_10", paths=["C:\\Users\\wenxi\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\openclaw\\uploads\\douyin-post.png"])
Step 5: Fill in Title
Find the title textbox (ref 4_2) and type the title.
Note: Title has 20-character limit.
browser(action="act", kind="click", ref="4_2", profile="user", target="host")
browser(action="act", kind="press", ref="4_2", profile="user", target="host", key="Control+a")
browser(action="act", kind="type", ref="4_2", text="", profile="user", target="host")
Step 6: Add Description (Optional)
The description textbox (statictext "æ·»å äœåæè¿°...") may not have a clickable ref. If available, click it and type description. If not, skip â the title alone is enough.
Step 7: Click Publish
Click the "ååž" button (ref 4_65):
browser(action="act", kind="click", ref="4_65", profile="user", target="host")
Step 8: Verify
After clicking publish, wait 5 seconds and take a snapshot to confirm the post appears in "äœå管ç" list.
