Review and share posts

Studio has no approval step that holds a post back. Instead, it gives you three tools: a review view to check many posts in one pass, a Reviewed mark to keep track, and a public preview page to show a post to someone outside your workspace.

How do I review a batch of posts?#

1. In the Calendar, choose Review view in the view switch at the top right.
2. Pick Scheduled or Draft to narrow the list, and a channel chip to see one account at a time.
3. Read each post in its network preview. The post due out first is marked Next up, and threads show how many parts they have.
4. For each post, choose Mark as reviewed, Preview Post, Edit Post or Delete Post.
5. Use the filter Any, Reviewed or Not reviewed to see what is left. When everything is done, Studio says Nothing left to review.

The review view loads posts a page at a time; move between pages with the arrows at the top.

How do I mark a post as reviewed?#

• In the review view, choose Mark as reviewed on the post. Choose it again to undo.
• In the composer, tick Reviewed at the bottom before you save.

A reviewed post carries a small tick in the calendar. The mark stays when you edit the post in the app or through an agent, and it is shared with everyone in your workspace.

How do I share a preview?#

1. Hover the post in the calendar and choose Preview Post, or choose it in the review view. The preview page opens in a new tab.
2. Choose Share with a client at the top. Studio copies the link to the page.
3. Send the link to your client or colleague.

The page shows the channel, the text and media of every part, and the Publication Date:. Once the post is published, the calendar's button opens the live post instead, but the preview link keeps working.

Who can see a preview link?#

Anyone who has the link, without signing in. The link contains the post's ID, which is hard to guess, but treat it as private if the post is not public yet.

How do comments work?#

Comments appear beside the post on its preview page. Anyone signed in to Studio can add one, and commenters are shown as User1, User2 and so on rather than by name. Someone who is not signed in sees Login / Register to add comments, which takes them to sign in or sign up, then back to the post.

How do I run an approval round with a client?#

1. Write the posts and choose Save as draft, so nothing can go out early.
2. Send your client the preview link of each post.
3. Ask them to sign in and comment on the preview page, or reply to you directly.
4. Make the changes, then open each post and choose Schedule.
5. Mark each one as Reviewed so your team knows it has been through the round.
