Social Planner now supports secure magic links for post approvals. This lets clients and stakeholders review content, approve or reject posts, add notes, and request scheduling changes without signing in.

What Changed

The new external approval flow is designed to reduce back-and-forth during content review. Instead of sending screenshots or asking reviewers to access the platform, you can generate a secure link and share it directly.

With these approval links, reviewers can:

approve or reject posts with notes
reschedule posts
use bulk actions like Approve All or Reject All
review post details before taking action

Each approval page includes:

a post preview with image or video and caption
scheduled time
platform details
creator notes

Security and Link Controls

Approval links include an auto-generated password option, and links expire after 30 days. Users can also:

regenerate links
revoke access
extend link validity
track link status as Active, Expired, or Revoked

If a link expires, the reviewer can request a new one and the creator can regenerate it.

How to Use It

In Social Planner, select the approver and generate an approval link. You can use an auto-generated password or create a custom one, then share the link with your client or stakeholder.

The reviewer can open the link, review the post, and take action. Notes added during approval or rejection sync back into Social Planner so the post creator can see feedback in context.

You can also manage approval links from the Manage Links section in settings.
