Blog auto-publish in social settings

With blog auto-publishing, you can automatically publish social posts when new blog posts are published. These social posts are published 15 minutes after your new blog post is published.

All social posts include the blog post title, link, and featured image. Facebook and X posts also include the blog post's meta description.

Blog auto-publish limitations

• Blog auto-publishing can only be turned on for shared social accounts.
• Once turned on, blog auto-publishing cannot be turned off if a social account is no longer set to shared. 
• Unpublishing and republishing a blog post will not re-publish social posts to your social accounts.
• Due to Instagram limitations, blog auto-publishing is not available for Instagram accounts.
• Due to Facebook's content policies, social sharing features, including blog auto-publish, cannot be turned on for personal Facebook accounts. 
• You can only turn on blog auto-publishing for one X account per blog. For example, if you have two X accounts connected in your HubSpot account, you cannot set them both up to auto-publish for the same blog.
• To turn on blog auto-publish for an X account, you need to select Report on posts published from all sources when connecting the account to HubSpot.
  

   

Set up blog auto-publishing

• In your HubSpot account, click the settings settings icon in the top navigation bar.
• In the left sidebar menu, navigate to Marketing > Social.
• In the accounts table, click Choose blog in the Blog auto-publish column next to your social account.
• In the pop-up box, click the Auto-publish new content for dropdown menu and select one or more blogs.
• Click Submit.
   

Preview and customize your auto-publish social posts

After you've set up blog auto-publishing, you can preview and customize the social posts published to your social accounts for each blog post. Each blog post will only publish a social post once. Future updates, or unpublishing and republishing the blog post, will not publish additional social posts.

Social posts will be auto-published 15 minutes after the blog post is published. If you unpublish the blog post within 15 minutes, the social post will not be published. In this case, publishing the blog post later will publish social posts.
