Troubleshooting Common Issues

The Twitter connection shows as “Expired” or “Disconnected”

Twitter access tokens can be revoked if you change your Twitter password or manually remove Brand2Social from your authorized apps. To fix this:

1. Go to the Integrations page in Brand2Social.
2. Click the three dots next to the affected Twitter account.
3. Click Reauthorize and complete the Twitter login flow again.

Posts are not publishing to Twitter

  • Verify the integration status is Connected (not expired).
  • Make sure the post content meets Twitter’s requirements (e.g., 280 character limit, supported media formats).
  • Check that you have selected the correct connected Twitter account when composing the post.
