Common Content Publishing Issues and Solutions
Check the error message you get for your social media content
When an error occurs that causes a social media post fail, we will give you a notification telling you what happened. Usually, it will be pretty clear what the issue was (and it might be one of the other reasons below). As much as we endeavour to make that social post fail message meaningful, occasionally what we get back from the platform isn’t accurate or is a new error. In those cases, you may need to contact us for help understanding the issue – which we will have logged.Is the token valid and do you still have permission for publishing?
Occasionally, a token will expire between the time the content was created and the time it is scheduled to go live. Additionally, sometimes a user’s permission could have changed. To check this please go to your page manager and check the token is active. You can read more about this in our support article. Note: Some platforms are meant to invalidate a token if a user’s permission changes, but there are sometimes issues where they have failed to do so which causes an error on publishing. This is often the case when you cannot post to Facebook.Does the post comply with the platform content requirements
