Learn what types of articles and elements are supported by each social media channel for publishing from Scompler.
In order to automatically publish social media articles on your social media channels from Scompler, these articles must meet the requirements of each channel. Below you will find the supported article types. Please also pay attention to the formats of included files for successful publication.
IMPORTANT: To publish, Scompler accesses the corresponding channel interface.
The requirements and supported formats that channels allow through these interfaces sometimes differ considerably from the available options when publishing directly on the platform.
The requirements for successful publishing from Scompler are set by the channel itself. Scompler cannot influence this.
Some networks offer different interfaces, so other tools with a different advertising budget or a longer business relationship may have different restrictions.
We regularly review the options offered to us to expand our offering as network specifications change.
