Approvals

Client approval links for social media posts

A client approval link lets a client review and approve a social media post without creating an account. They open the link, see the post as it will publish, and approve, reject or leave a comment — the whole exchange stays on the post, instead of scattered across email.

A client approval link lets a client review a social media post exactly as it will publish and approve it, reject it or comment, without creating an account. SkedCast's guest approval links are signed and expire, show only that client's posts, and keep every decision on the post instead of in email threads.

Key takeaways

  • A guest approval link needs no SkedCast account or password from the client.
  • The client sees the post as it will publish, not a raw text draft.
  • Approve, reject or comment — the decision and its reasoning stay attached to the post.
  • Bulk approval lets a client sign off a whole batch at once when it is ready.

Opening the link shows the post rendered as it will publish — caption, media and the account it targets — not a raw draft in a spreadsheet or an email screenshot.

What the client can do

  • Approve the post as it stands
  • Request changes, with a comment attached
  • Reject the post
  • Approve a whole batch in bulk once a set is ready

FAQ

Does the client need to sign up to use an approval link?
No. The link works as a guest — no account, no password.
What happens after the client approves a post?
It moves to its next stage in your approval chain (another internal check, or straight to scheduled) and the approval is recorded against the post with a timestamp.
Can clients approve posts without an account?
Yes. SkedCast's guest approval links let a client approve or ask for changes without logging in, from the Studio plan up.
Is there an approval step on every plan?
Yes. One internal approval step works on every SkedCast plan; multi-stage chains and guest links come with Studio and above.
Is there a record of who approved each post?
Yes. SkedCast's activity log records who created, edited, approved and published every post.
