Connecting networks

To manage your accounts from Boty Social you need to connect them. Today you can connect Instagram and LinkedIn.

Available platforms

Only Instagram and LinkedIn

These are the only two networks actually connectable today. You’ll notice the product and the materials mention other networks (X, TikTok, Facebook): they’re on the roadmap, not available yet.

How to connect an account

1. Go to Accounts within the admin panel.
2. Click + Connect account.
3. Choose Instagram or LinkedIn. We’ll take you to the platform’s authorization screen.
4. Authorize the permissions. When you return, you’ll see the account connected with its status.

Boty only requests the permissions to publish and read statistics. You can revoke them at any time from the network itself or from Boty.

Token health (why you sometimes have to reauthorize)

Networks expire permissions every so often. On the Accounts page each card shows the token health:

• Active — all in order, you can schedule.
• Expiring / Expired — reauthorize soon so a scheduled post doesn’t fail.
• Error / Disconnected — reconnect the account.

When a permission expires, you’ll see it here before a scheduled post fails.

Disconnect an account

From the account card you can Disconnect. We don’t delete the content you already published, but Boty will lose access to prepare new posts, and any you had scheduled will be paused until you reconnect.

Test accounts

In test environments, administrators can create dummy accounts to experiment without connecting a real network. They appear marked as TEST.
