Drafts help you work ahead and review posts before publishing. You can save a post at any point during creation and return to it later. Drafts are visible to all admins in your team, so others can review or finish the post if needed.

Drafts are automatically added to your content planning and your content calendar, so you always have a clear overview of what is being worked on. You can also create a new draft directly from the calendar or planning view.

πŸ’‘ Tip: In the Post Overview, drafts are always labeled with (Draft). In the calendar, they appear with a blue color, making them easy to identify.


How to save a draft

  1. Go to Create Post in the left-hand menu

  2. Create your post as usual

  3. Click Save as Draft in the bottom-left corner

The post will now be saved as a draft and added to your content calendar and planning.


How to access your saved drafts

  1. Go to Post Overview in the left-hand menu

  2. Click the Drafts tab at the top

  3. Click Edit next to the post you want to finish

  4. Complete your post and schedule it when ready

πŸ’‘ Tip: Drafts save everything you add in step 1, step 2, and step 3 of the post composer. For example, any brand ambassadors you selected in step 2 will still be there when you return.

⚠️ Important: You can save a draft at any stage of the post creation process. This includes after writing the post, choosing your channels, or setting the timing. Other admins can view and edit your drafts at any time.
