Connect Account

Connect a Social Account#

Before you can publish, you need to connect at least one social media account to your workspace.

Steps#

1. Go to your workspace dashboard
2. Open Social Accounts from the sidebar under "Publish"
3. Select a platform from the dropdown
4. Click Connect
5. You'll be redirected to authorize Orshot with the platform
6. Once authorized, the account appears in your connected accounts list

Rules#

• One account per platform per workspace — You can connect one Twitter account, one Instagram account, etc. per workspace
• Multiple workspaces — If you have multiple workspaces, each can have its own set of connected accounts
• Billing starts on connect — Each account adds $6/mo to your subscription immediately
• Billing stops on disconnect — Disconnecting removes the charge from the next billing cycle

Reconnecting#

If an account's token expires (e.g., you changed your password on the platform), you'll see a "Reconnect required" warning. Click Reconnect to re-authorize without losing your account setup.

Disconnecting#

To remove an account, click Disconnect next to it. This will:

• Remove the account from your workspace
• Stop posting to that account
• Reduce your monthly bill by $6

Account IDs#

Each connected account has a unique ID. You'll need these IDs when publishing via the API — they go in the publish.accounts array.

You can find your account IDs by calling GET /v1/social/accounts or from the Social Accounts page in the dashboard. See Publish from API for details.
