Managing Connections
Once you've connected platforms, you'll need to manage them effectively. This guide covers setting main accounts, handling multiple connections, and maintenance tasks.
Viewing Connected Accounts
Integrations Page
Navigate to Integrations to see all connections:
- Platform cards show connection status
- Connected accounts display account names
- Multiple accounts are listed under each platform
Connection Details
Click on a connected platform card to view:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Account Name | The connected profile or page name |
| Account ID | Platform-specific identifier |
| Connected Date | When the connection was made |
| Status | Active, Error, or Expired |
| Main Account | Star icon if designated as main |
Main Accounts
What is a Main Account?
The main account is the default connection used when:
- Creating new campaigns
- Auto-selecting platforms
- Generating content for a platform
Each platform can have one main account per workspace.
Setting a Main Account
- Go to Integrations
- Find the platform card
- Click on the account you want as main
- Click Set as Main
- Star icon appears next to the account
Changing the Main Account
- Click on a different connected account
- Click Set as Main
- The previous main account is demoted
- New account shows star icon
When to Use Multiple Accounts
Common scenarios:
- Multiple brands - Different accounts for each brand
- Regional accounts - Separate accounts by market/language
- Business units - Different departments or divisions
- Testing - Test account alongside production
Managing Multiple Accounts
Adding Another Account
To connect additional accounts:
- Click Add Account on the platform card
- Complete OAuth flow for the new account
- Both accounts appear under the platform
Switching Between Accounts
In campaign creation:
- Select the platform
- Click the account dropdown
- Choose which account to use for this campaign
Account Limits
Your plan determines how many accounts you can connect:
| Plan | Accounts per Platform |
|---|---|
| Free | 1 |
| Starter | 3 |
| Professional | 10 |
| Enterprise | Unlimited |
If you reach your limit, an upgrade modal appears when trying to add more.
Connection Maintenance
Checking Connection Health
Signs of a healthy connection:
- ✅ Green checkmark

- ❌ Red error icon
- "Expired" or "Error" status
Reconnecting
If a connection shows issues:
- Click on the problematic account
- Click Reconnect
- Complete OAuth flow again
- Connection is refreshed
Common reasons to reconnect:
- Password changed on platform
- Token expired
- Permissions were revoked
- Platform API updates
Regular Maintenance
Best practices:
- Check connections weekly
- Reconnect before major campaigns
- Update after platform password changes
- Remove unused connections
Disconnecting Accounts
When to Disconnect
Disconnect accounts when:
- No longer using the account
- Switching to a different account
- Cleaning up workspace
- Security concerns
How to Disconnect
- Click on the connected account
- Click Disconnect
- Confirm the action
- Account is immediately removed
Disconnecting stops all scheduled posts for that account. Any pending content will fail to publish.
What Happens After Disconnect
- All future scheduled posts fail
- Active campaigns using this account are affected
- Historical data is preserved
- You can reconnect anytime
Copying Connections
Cross-Workspace Copying
If you have access to multiple workspaces, you can copy connections:
- Click on a connected account
- Click Copy to Workspace
- Select target workspace
- Connection is duplicated
This creates a new OAuth token. Both connections remain independent and can be managed separately.
When to Copy
Useful for:
- Setting up new workspaces quickly
- Managing client accounts
- Consistent multi-workspace setup
Platform-Specific Management
Facebook

- Each Page is a separate connection
- Switch between Pages in campaign settings

- Editor: Can post, cannot connect
- Moderator: Limited posting
Instagram
Business vs Creator:
- Business: More analytics, API features
- Creator: Influencer-focused features
