Add a Creator
Ways to add a creator — search SIFT or run the SideShift-managed flow.
Search SIFT
From the UGC creators page, filter by:
- Platform (TikTok, Instagram).
- Follower range.
- Engagement rate range.
- Niche / keywords.
Click a result to add the creator to your project's roster. The
creator's recent posts sync into platform_posts on the next
global-platform-posts-sync cycle (every 30 minutes), pulling up to
50 most recent posts per account.
SideShift-managed flow
For the managed program, creator onboarding happens in SideShift —
Layers ops manages the contract, brief, and deliverable lifecycle there
and syncs the resulting contracts + creators into Layers via the
sideshift-sync-program workflow (every 10 minutes). Creators appear
in your roster automatically once enrolled in SideShift.
Behavior after adding
Adding a creator:
- Creates a
social_accountsrow linked to aplatform_accountsidentity. - Triggers SIFT post collection on the next sync cycle.
- Makes the creator's posts eligible for scoring and (if scored above threshold) for ad selection.
