FAQ

FAQ

Practical questions with detailed answers.

Yes. The prompts are configurable to align with your brand voice, industry terminology, and audience preferences. You can adjust the level of technical detail, formality, and engagement hooks. The system preserves formatting and hashtags while adapting to your guidelines. You can also reuse templates for consistency across posts.

The AI agent can auto-publish or push for human approval before posting, depending on your workflow settings. You can define a review step in Google Sheets or within the n8n workflow. This ensures that every post aligns with brand standards and compliance requirements. You maintain control while reducing repetitive manual steps.

If a publish attempt fails, the AI agent retries with a backoff and logs the error. The failure is reflected in Google Sheets, and you may receive an alert. You can re-run the post once the issue is resolved, or intervene manually if needed.

The AI agent uses OAuth credentials and checks posting permissions for each group. If a group lacks permission or has posting restrictions, the agent skips it and continues with the rest. You can configure a fallback list of groups to maintain reach without violating group rules.

Post content, topics, and status are stored in the connected cloud accounts with access controlled by credentials. Data handling follows standard security best practices, including encryption in transit and at rest. You can enable audits and per-credential access controls through your platform.

Yes. You can exclude groups, pause distribution temporarily, or resume later. Changes are reflected in Google Sheets and the workflow in real time, giving you precise control over where your content goes.

Turnaround varies with content length and group checks, but a typical cycle is a few minutes from Pending to Posted when credentials are active. The monitoring runs every minute, GPT-4 generation completes in seconds, and publishing happens immediately after generation if permissions are valid. You can adjust timing by configuring triggers and delays in the workflow.
