Advanced Features

$3

This node supports advanced multi-platform, multi-format scheduling using a "Vertical Slicing" algorithm. This allows you to schedule different content types across multiple platforms in a single workflow execution.

How it works:
- Select multiple post types for Instagram (Feed, Reel, Story)
- Select multiple post types for Facebook (Feed, Reel, Story)
- Select multiple post types for YouTube (Video, Short)
- The node automatically groups the 1st selection of each platform together, 2nd selections together, etc.

Example:
If you select:
- Instagram: Feed, Reel, Story
- Facebook: Feed, Reel
- YouTube: Video

The node will create 3 separate scheduled posts:
1. Instagram Feed + Facebook Feed + YouTube Video
2. Instagram Reel + Facebook Reel
3. Instagram Story

This optimizes API calls while ensuring each content type is scheduled correctly.

$3

When scheduling Instagram Reels, you have the option to Show Reel on Feed, which makes the Reel visible in your main Instagram grid in addition to the Reels tab.
