Connect social accounts

Which networks lmnts posts to, where each client's accounts are connected, and who can connect them.

For everyone

lmnts posts to a client's accounts and reports on them once they are connected. You connect an account by signing in to the network from lmnts and allowing access. Nobody gives lmnts a password.

Networks you can connect

NetworkWhat you connect
InstagramA professional account, through the Facebook Page it is linked to
FacebookA Facebook Page
ThreadsA Threads profile
LinkedInA company page, a person's own profile, or both
YouTubeA YouTube channel (full videos and Shorts)
TikTokA TikTok account

Ad accounts connect separately, for spend and results on the Ads tab: see Connect ad accounts.

Once an account is connected, its network becomes a choice when you create a post for that client. The post form only offers networks the client has connected.

Where connections live

Every client has its own connections, on its Integrations tab.

  1. Step 1: Open the client.

  2. Step 2: Select the gear next to the client's name, then choose Integrations.

    The gear beside the client name Bloom Coffee Co. with its menu open, listing General, Integrations, Preferences, Payments and Team.
  3. Step 3: Select the connect button for the network. The network opens so you can sign in, then brings you back to lmnts.

    The Integrations tab for Bloom Coffee Co., with a card per network listing the connected accounts and their connect buttons.

If a sign-in doesn't work out, lmnts says why at the top of the Integrations tab, starting "Couldn't connect:", and nothing changes.

A client with brands connects accounts per brand. Its Integrations tab shows a Brands card, and each brand has its own connect buttons, for the same networks as the cards. See Brands within a client.

In a Creator workspace the accounts belong to your brand: select the gear next to your brand's name, then Integrations.

Who can connect accounts

WhoCan connect and disconnect
The workspace ownerYes, for every client
Team members with Manage clients (Manage the brand in Creator+)Yes, for the clients they work on
A client adminYes, for their own company only
Other client logins, and team members without that permissionNo

Disconnecting

Disconnect beside an account removes the connection, after you confirm. Posts already published stay on the network, and the numbers lmnts already has stay too. Anything still waiting to go out to that network needs the account connected again before it can publish.
