# Tiktok: Manually upload products via feed

{% hint style="info" %}
After successfully creating the Product Feed, we will proceed to upload the products to your Catalog. We have two methods to upload to your Catalog.
{% endhint %}

### Manual Method :&#x20;

With this method, you won't need to log in to Tiktokon our app. We will provide you with a CSV file, and then you can manually upload this file through TikTok's commerce manager to add the products.

The steps to create the Feed will be similar to the automated method. Here, I will guide you on adding products using our CSV file on TikTok's Commerce Manager.

#### Step 1: Copy the CSV file URL from the Feed management screen of our app.
