What is the TikTok Portrait Converter?

The TikTok Portrait Converter is a feature of FFMPEGAPI.net that enables users to convert videos into a full-bleed 9:16 TikTok-style portrait format. This conversion is crucial for maximizing the engagement of your video content on TikTok, where vertical videos dominate.

With FFMPEGAPI.net, you can perform this transformation easily through a simple REST API call, eliminating the need for local FFmpeg installations and setups.

  • Converts videos to 1080x1920 portrait format.
  • Optional features include adding a watermark and an outro video.
  • Designed for seamless integration into SaaS applications, content pipelines, and automation workflows.

How to Use the TikTok Portrait Converter API

To convert a video using the TikTok Portrait Converter, you'll need to send a POST request to the following endpoint:

POST /api/convert_to_tiktok_portrait

The API expects a JSON payload that includes the video URL and optionally a watermark and outro video URL.

  • Parameters:
  • - video_url (string): Required. The URL of the video you want to convert.
  • - watermark_url (string): Optional. The URL of the watermark image.
  • - outro_video_url (string): Optional. The URL of the outro video to append.

curl -X POST https://www.ffmpegapi.net/api/convert_to_tiktok_portrait \ 
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ 
-d '{ "video_url": "https://example.com/landscape.mp4", "outro_video_url": "https://example.com/outro.mp4" }'
