## 2. Select The Platforms You Want To Link

* Choose the social platforms you want to connect.
* Repeat the connection flow for each platform you want to use.

## 3. Authorize Each Account

* Sign in to the selected platform if prompted.
* Approve the permissions needed for scheduling and publishing.

## 4. Use Connected Accounts For Publishing

* Connected accounts will be available when you schedule posts.
* You can also use them when publishing content directly from a project.
* You can link multiple accounts if you want to publish across more than one platform.

<Tip>
  Connect all of the accounts you plan to use before you start scheduling posts. That makes the publishing workflow much faster later.
