Frequently asked questions

Does Perroly see my Instagram or Facebook password?

No. Every connection goes through the relevant platform’s official window: you sign in with them, never with Perroly.

Why are my TikTok posts only visible to me?

Until Perroly passes TikTok’s audit, the API forces "Only you" visibility on posts scheduled through third-party tools. This lifts automatically once the audit is passed.

Can I connect more than one account per network?

Yes, the Accounts page accepts multiple accounts per network, useful for managing several brands or clients from the same Perroly workspace.

What happens if I disconnect an account by mistake?

You can reconnect it anytime from Accounts. The history of posts and messages already handled by Perroly stays intact.

Can I connect a LinkedIn Page without going through a personal profile?

No. The connection always goes through a personal LinkedIn profile, which then gives access to the Pages that profile administers. There is no direct connection to a Page alone.

Do I need to reconnect my accounts regularly?

No, the connection stays active until you revoke it on the platform’s side or in Perroly. Reconnecting only matters after a permissions or email change to review.
