Who is this for?

Solo creators and teams who prefer manual selection/approval but want to avoid repetitive uploads per platform.

Key benefits

  • One caption, many platforms
  • Save time vs. native uploads
  • Reduce copy/paste errors

Detailed flow

  1. Pick media from a device, Drive, or asset manager
  2. Provide a base caption and optional per‑platform tweaks
  3. Upload once; the flow posts to all selected profiles via Upload‑Post

Setup (step‑by‑step)

  1. Copy the template
  2. Connect Upload‑Post and your preferred storage
  3. Map each platform to the correct profile
  4. Add default hashtags and mentions
  5. Test with a single image and validate links

Best practices

  • Keep the base caption short; add platform notes only if necessary
  • Maintain a checklist (tags, mentions, alt‑text)
  • Track experiments with a “Campaign” field

FAQs
