Set up automated social post scheduling
The Posting node allows users to set up automated social posting and put their accounts on autopilot. If added, your agent will automatically select the optimal time to post throughout the day, depending on how many clips are generated and your posting configuration.
Posting Configuration
Pressing Configure on your node will bring up the settings. Here, you’ll specify the posting account, frequency, and level of autonomy.
If you do not have any Posting Personas setup, you can do so here or in Posting Personas on the left sidebar.
Here, the agent is configured to post to the Overlap Comedy X account. Whenever this workflow is run, the agent will automatically generate and post up to three YouTube Shorts each day until all clips are scheduled.
Double Posting Setting
In the settings, you will see a setting that says “Don’t schedule posts if there are already scheduled posts for the same time slot.”
If turned on, this agent will schedule posts out in the future to prevent overflow a single day. For example, if you have the same settings above (3 posts per day), and you run the workflow twice in one day, then it will never schedule more than 3 posts per day and instead will schedule them far out in advance.
If left off, then the agent will always follow its configuration starting immediately after it finishes. For example, with the settings above, if we run the workflow three times on one day then clips from each episode will being scheduling immediately and we may have 9 posts scheduled for day one.
Requiring User Approval
In the settings above, there is a setting that says “Require approval from the user”.
If turned on, posts will be scheduled just as they normally are. However, they will not post unless accepted by the user
You can find these suggested posts in Social Calendar on the left sidebar.
If the user here were to press Approve, then this post would go out June 10th at 3:47PM, as scheduled.
If the user does not Approve the post in time, then it will not be posted.
View Outgoing Posts
Once a post has been scheduled, you must manually delete it if you wish for it not to go out. Turning off the agent will not remove existing scheduled posts.
Social Calendar from the left sidebar to view outgoing posts.
Green posts represent your history of what has already been shared. Grey represents posts that are scheduled. For example, on May 23rd, we have 14 TikToks scheduled to post.
You may edit the text or timing of a scheduled post by pressing on a specific day. The video will show any edits you have made and when the post is shared, we will share the most up-to-date version.
