Publish
The "Publish" screen is where you prepare and publish your LinkedIn posts. The AI drafts a post from your instruction. You revise it, add images, a PDF or a video, then publish it right away or on a chosen date.
The "On LinkedIn" tab shows the posts already published on your account, with their comments and reactions. Prospecting happens in Campaigns.
Posts are really published on LinkedIn. Comments and reactions made from the "On LinkedIn" tab also really go out.
1. Draft a post
Available
To draft a post:
- Open "Publish".
- Click "New post".
- Describe the topic, the tone and the intended audience.
- Choose a "Target" if the post is for a specific audience. This choice is optional.
- Click "Generate". The button shows the cost: 15 credits.
Drafting takes about 20 seconds. You then land on the draft. Nothing is published.
The preview shows the post as it will appear in the LinkedIn feed ("Feed preview") or in full ("Full text"). It shows where LinkedIn cuts the text with "…see more". A post is at most 3,000 characters.
2. Revise a draft
Available
To revise:
- Open the draft.
- In "Revise", write an instruction, or click a quick instruction: "Shorter", "More direct", "End with a question", "No hashtags".
- Click "Revise". The cost is 15 credits.
The revision adds a new version. Earlier versions are kept. Nothing is published.
3. Attach images, a PDF or a video
Available
A post can carry:
- up to 9 images (JPEG, PNG or GIF, 8 MB each, 6,012 pixels at most per side);
- or a PDF document (20 MB at most);
- or an MP4 video (100 MB at most).
You cannot mix types in the same post.
To attach a file:
- Open the draft, "Attachments" section.
- Drop your files or click to choose them.
- Click "Attach".
"Move up" and "Move down" change the order of the images. "Remove this file" removes a file. For a PDF, the file name is used as the title on LinkedIn; you can change it in "Document title".
Files can no longer change once the post is queued, published or archived.
4. Schedule or publish
Available
Schedule. To publish on a chosen date:
- Open the draft.
- Click "Schedule".
- Choose the date and the time.
- Confirm with "Schedule for …".
The post gets the status "Scheduled". At the chosen time, the platform publishes it on your LinkedIn account. To cancel, use "Unschedule": the post becomes a draft again. The screen recommends one slot per working day at most.
Publish now. To publish right away:
- Open the draft.
- Click "Publish on LinkedIn".
- Read the confirmation, then click "Publish".
The post becomes "Queued", then "Published". Publishing cannot be undone: the post reaches your network. To remove a published post, delete it from LinkedIn.
Publishing and scheduling cost no credits.
If publishing fails and nothing reaches LinkedIn (LinkedIn refuses the post, account disconnected, attached file missing, daily limit reached), the post becomes a draft again. The "Publishing failed" badge shows in the list and the calendar, and the post page gives the reason. Fix it, then publish or schedule again: the reason goes away.
If your workspace is closed (end of trial or expired subscription), a scheduled post is not published. It goes out late, after the workspace reopens. See Credits and subscription.
5. Manage the list of posts
Available
The "Publication queue" lists your posts with their status:
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Draft | The post is being prepared. |
| Scheduled | The post has a date. It will be published on that date. |
| Queued | Publication is in progress. The post can no longer be edited. |
| Published | The post is on LinkedIn. |
You can filter by status and by Target. The "Archived" tab shows archived posts.
The "⋯" menu of a post offers:
- "Unschedule": a scheduled post becomes a draft again. A "Queued" post marked "Publishing stuck" (its publication stopped without publishing anything) can be unscheduled too;
- "Archive": the post leaves the list. A scheduled post is unscheduled first. "Unarchive" brings it back;
- "Delete": permanently deletes a post that was never published, with all its versions. A published post cannot be deleted; archive it.
6. The On LinkedIn tab, comments and reactions
Available
The "On LinkedIn" tab shows the posts already published on your connected LinkedIn account, including those published outside the platform. Each post shows its impressions, reactions and comments.
The list is read from LinkedIn when you open the tab, then only on "Refresh" or "Load more". A post's comments and reactions are read when you open that post. These reads cost no credits. Each one counts toward your LinkedIn account's daily read limit (100 to 400 post reads per day depending on your plan, see Limits and security).
The list stays in memory when you leave the screen and come back. The load time is shown ("Loaded at …").
To reply to a post's comments:
- Click "Comments and reactions".
- The "Comments" tab lists the comments. The "Reactions" tab lists the reactions.
- To reply to a comment, click "Reply". To comment on the post, write in "Your comment…". 1,250 characters at most. You can attach an image (JPEG, PNG or GIF, 8 MB at most).
- To react, click "React" and choose: Like, Celebrate, Support, Love, Insightful, Funny.
- Confirm.
These actions are public and immediate: they go out on LinkedIn under your name. They cost no credits.
7. Draft a post from an Intelligence trend
Available
In Intelligence, a trend's "Suggest a post" button opens "Publish" with an instruction already filled in. Nothing is generated before you click "Generate".
The draft keeps the link to its trend ("Written from the trend: …"). The trend shows the number of posts drafted from it.
8. With the assistant
Available
The assistant's "Publish" tab drafts, revises and organizes your posts. Examples:
Draft a LinkedIn post about data sovereignty for industrial SMEs.
Draft a LinkedIn post for my Target « Mid-size company CFOs ».
Revise my latest draft: make it shorter and the hook more direct.
Plan a series of 3 posts over the coming week.
List my latest posts.
The assistant can draft, revise, suggest a series plan, list, unschedule, archive and unarchive posts. It does not schedule or publish: you schedule and publish from the post screen.
The series plan suggests topics and time slots. It does not draft the posts: you draft each post afterwards.
