Known issues

Living list of Social0 quirks and workarounds on social0.app — connect, posting, API, and uploads.

Overview

This page tracks real product behavior that looks like a bug but has a known cause or workaround. We update it as platforms and APIs change. For step-by-step fixes, see the topic guides linked from Troubleshooting.

Connect

IssueWorkaround
Instagram connect fails or wrong accountTry direct Instagram OAuth first. If you connected via Facebook Page, confirm the Instagram account is linked to that Page on Meta, then reconnect. Instagram

| TikTok connected but slow to show posts | TikTok often needs several minutes after we send the post before it appears on profile. Wait and refresh TikTok — TikTok | | CLI/MCP cannot finish OAuth | By design. Connect in Dashboard → Connections first — OAuth troubleshooting |

Posting

IssueWorkaround
Multi-platform job partial successSome platforms succeeded, others failed. Poll status / get_publish_status until terminal; read per-platform errors; reconnect failed accounts and retry only those
TikTok publish failed — privacyTikTok requires acceptable privacy/settings on the connected creator account. Check TikTok app settings, then reconnect if needed
Pinterest publish failed — boardA board must be selected for the pin. Reconnect or pick board when creating the post — Pinterest
