Ask a team member to approve your content

Invite one or more team members to review and approve your content before it goes live. This is a great way to make sure your post is on-brand and polished before you publish it.

Understanding the approval sequence

If your organization uses multiple approval steps, the post will not move to the next step in the sequence until the previous approval is granted. Approvals are processed in the following order:

1. Proofpoint (if enabled): Automated compliance pre-screening.
2. One-time approver (if selected): A specific person selected by the post creator.
3. Custom approval process: Team or department-level approvals set by your admin.

All required approvals must be completed before the post's scheduled time. If any stage is still pending when the scheduled time arrives, the post will fail to publish and move to the Expired queue.

Request a review

You can ask any team member with access to the social account to approve your post before it publishes — they don't need special permissions to do so. If your organization has an approval process set up, your post will go through that process after your requested team member approves your post. Learn how to set up an approval process.
