⚠️Auto-Posting + Token Issues

Having trouble auto-posting or seeing token expired errors? Here's how to fix it and what you can schedule with UNUM.


βœ… What can I auto-post with UNUM?

You can auto-post directly to:

  • Instagram Feed

  • Instagram Reels

  • Instagram Stories

  • Instagram Threads

  • YouTube Shorts

  • Pinterest

  • Facebook

  • TikTok

  • Twitter (X)

  • LinkedIn

Just upload your content, schedule it, and we’ll take care of the rest.


⚠️ Why is auto-post not working?

The most common reason is:

Your Instagram or TikTok isn't a Business account connected to a Facebook Page.

As of December 2024, Meta and other platforms require stricter permissions to allow auto-posting. To auto-post, make sure:

  • Your Instagram is set to a Business account

  • It's connected to a Facebook Page

  • You've approved posting permissions during social setup


πŸ” How to fix token issues

Tokens expire due to:

  • Password changes

  • Meta/TikTok security resets

  • Revoked app permissions

Here’s how to reconnect:

  1. Click the Socials icon in your UNUM sidebar

  2. Look for channels marked Token Expired

  3. Click ... > Refresh

  4. Follow the steps to log in and reauthorize

Once reconnected, your scheduled posts will resume.


πŸ‘€ What happens if I don’t reconnect?

Posts to that social channel will fail to publish. You’ll see a warning and any upcoming auto-posts will pause until you reauthorize.


🧠 Quick Answers

Can I auto-post to TikTok and YouTube Shorts? Yes β€” TikTok (Business accounts only) and YouTube Shorts are fully supported.

Can I auto-post Stories and Reels? Yes! UNUM supports direct auto-posting for Instagram Stories, Reels, and Feed posts.

Can I auto-post to Threads and LinkedIn? Yes, both Threads and LinkedIn are supported β€” just connect the channels from your Socials dashboard.
