Social Media Services

This dialog displays social media services supported in this release of CommonSpot. To centrally manage social media communications for your site, you must first register CommonSpot with the services you use. See Site Admin - Social Media for an overview of these steps, and Integrating Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn for detailed instructions on registering CommonSpot with specific services. A green check mark in the Registered column indicates active registration.

Once registration is in place, you can set up channels (accounts) for each service and schedule automatic postings through rules. Create and manage rules and monitor comments and updates through the Social Media section of My CommonSpot. Social media managers must have Social Media admin rights assigned in Site General Security.
