Connect accounts
What each platform needs before Rostido can post for you.
Accounts are connected from Accounts in the dashboard. Rostido uses each platform's official login and only stores the access tokens it needs to post. You can disconnect an account at any time.
| Platform | Sign in with | Requirements |
|---|---|---|
| Facebook Login | A Business or Creator account linked to a Facebook Page you manage. Personal Instagram accounts can't be posted to through the API. | |
| Facebook Login | A Facebook Page you manage. Posting to personal profiles isn't supported. | |
| Threads | Threads login | Any Threads profile. |
| TikTok Soon | TikTok login | Coming soon. |
| YouTube | Google sign-in | A YouTube channel on the Google account you choose. |
| X Beta | Session cookies | X connects with your logged-in X session instead of an official API. Reconnect if you log out of X. |
During early access, Instagram, Facebook and Threads connections are limited to invited testers while Meta reviews the Rostido app. TikTok publishing is coming soon.
Instagram and Facebook Pages
When you connect Instagram, Facebook asks which Pages Rostido may use. Select the Page your Instagram account is linked to. If no account shows up, check in the Instagram app that the account is set to Business or Creator and linked to that Page.
Staying connected
- YouTube refreshes its access automatically.
- Threads tokens last 60 days. Rostido renews them in the final week.
- Instagram and Facebook access lasts 90 days from when you connect, Meta's limit for apps you haven't signed in to again. When an account shows Expired in Accounts, connect it again.
Disconnecting
Disconnect from Accounts. To also revoke Rostido's access on the platform itself, remove Rostido from the connected apps in that platform's settings.
