Do I have to hand over platform passwords or tokens?
Most destinations use an OAuth redirect. Bluesky requires an app
password, entered in Social Fanout’s connection setup. Provider
credentials stay server-side; your publishing app or agent uses
only the Social Fanout API key. Treat that key as a publishing credential.
Can I see and control exactly what gets posted?
Review the content, accounts, and timing before submitting a
publish or schedule request. Created jobs retain their status and
provider receipts when available. An accepted or unclear result
is not proof that a post is live; inspect the receipt and destination.
Which destinations are actually available right now?
Publishing is currently available for eligible connected accounts
on Instagram, Threads, Facebook Pages, LinkedIn member profiles, TikTok, X,
Reddit, Bluesky, Discord, and Email. Instagram uses standalone Business Login for eligible
Professional accounts; Threads text and image publishing is live
for eligible connected accounts. Meta has approved and Published the
dedicated Facebook Comments and Facebook Messenger
apps. Both are available to eligible Page admins after separate
per-Page authorization; separate production canaries on September 7
verified each grant, webhook subscription, inbound receive, explicit
reply receipt, and matching native result. Comments replies require
an explicit request; Social Fanout does not auto-reply, and the
dashboard requires a human click. Messenger supports only
explicit text replies in customer-initiated conversations inside the
standard 24-hour window, with no cold outreach, automation, media
replies, or Human Agent.
Instagram Comments and Instagram Messages are
available for eligible Professional accounts after separate
authorization for each. Comments supports explicit replies,
hide/unhide, and deletion of app-created replies. Messages supports
customer-initiated, text-only replies inside 24 hours; automatic
replies and media replies are not offered. TikTok Comments is unavailable for production use.
Its separate app requires provider approval, an eligible account
grant, and native comment/reply verification before activation.
Pinterest Standard access is active. Production-host
OAuth reconnect and public-Board lookup are verified;
publishing remains limited while final publishing verification is
completed. Pins publish immediately; scheduling is not available.
YouTube remains Limited pending required
Google/YouTube reviews and live upload verification. The dashboard shows
conservative provider-level readiness; each account's scopes still
need a live connection check.
LinkedIn member publishing is available for eligible connected profiles,
with periodic reconnect when LinkedIn does not issue refresh access.
LinkedIn Page publishing works for Pages administered by the connected
member under Development Tier, and refreshable Page connections renew
on publish; Standard Tier review is pending for unrestricted customer
Page access. LinkedIn uses the dashboard, REST API, or local MCP; the current ChatGPT Action excludes it.
REST or MCP — and can I self-host?
Both, on the same key and the same logs. Call /v1/publish
from your app, or wire the local MCP server into agent clients.
The managed production service publishes fresh checks at
/status. Self-hosted deployments, source
access, and white-label or resale terms require a separate written
agreement; the source repository is not public.
What counts as a "publish"?
One attempted post to one destination platform. Plans cap your
monthly publish attempts and how many platform types you can target.
Facebook and Instagram count as separate platform types.
