Troubleshooting

Fix a post that won’t publish

Troubleshoot publishing failures by checking channel connection health, media fit, and timing assumptions.

5 minUpdated 2026-08-06

Most common causes

  • The channel connection expired or no longer has the right permissions.
  • Media or copy no longer fits the destination network’s constraints.
  • The scheduled context changed and the wrong workspace or account was selected.

Fast recovery path

  1. 1

    Check the channel status

    Confirm the account is still connected and healthy before editing the content itself.

  2. 2

    Open previews again

    Look for text length, media, or render issues that may have been introduced after the draft was first saved.

  3. 3

    Retry with a controlled edit

    Fix one likely issue at a time so you know what actually resolved the failure.
