A content request lands in the intake form with copy, target networks, and a requested publish date
List Brands resolves the client's numeric blogId so every downstream call is scoped to the right brand
List Scheduled Posts scans the requested date for that brand to catch collisions with already-queued content
Create Scheduled Post queues the post as a draft, with auto-publish off, across the requested networks
The draft's text, media, networks, and slot post to the social team's channel for review
The social lead reads the draft in context and approves the slot, edits the copy, or rejects the post
On approval, Create Scheduled Post schedules the final version with auto-publish on

What This Integration Enables

Metricool's job is to be the one place a brand's social presence gets scheduled and measured, and this connector makes that place programmable. FlowRunner agents discover the brands connected to an account, audit what is queued in any date window, schedule posts across up to nine networks in one call, and pull follower, engagement, reach, and impression metrics for reporting. The interesting design choice is in Create Scheduled Post: it can auto-publish at the scheduled time, or save as a draft. That toggle is where orchestration discipline lives, because a draft is a suggestion and an auto-published post is a public statement. - Turn intake forms, spreadsheets, and generated copy into scheduled posts without manual re-entry - Audit a brand's queue by date range before adding to it, so campaigns do not collide - Feed dashboards with per-network analytics on a schedule instead of by screenshot - Route every auto-publish decision through a person via [human-in-the-loop](/concepts/human-in-the-loop) review

Without FlowRunner

Nine tabs per post Publishing one campaign means logging into each network or pasting into a scheduler by hand
Content stuck upstream Approved copy sits in a spreadsheet or brief because scheduling is a manual chore someone owns
Reporting by screenshot Follower and engagement numbers are copied out of dashboards into slides once a month

With FlowRunner

One call, every network An agent schedules a post across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, and the rest in a single action
Intake to queue without a human relay Form submissions and generated copy become scheduled drafts the moment they are ready
Metrics that pull themselves Analytics land in sheets and dashboards on a schedule, with alerts when a number moves

Use Case Scenarios

Intake form to reviewed queue

A marketing team collects campaign requests through [Typeform](/integrations/typeform). When a response arrives, the agent polishes the copy with the team's prompt conventions, calls List Brands to resolve the right blogId, and checks the requested slot with List Scheduled Posts. If the slot is clear, Create Scheduled Post queues a draft with auto-publish off and posts the preview to [Slack](/integrations/slack). The social lead approves or edits, and only then does the post get scheduled to publish. The requester never touches a scheduler, and nothing reaches a public feed unreviewed.

The weekly analytics pull nobody runs by hand

Every Monday, an agent iterates the brands from List Brands and calls Get Analytics per connected network for the trailing week. Followers, engagement, reach, and impressions append to a per-brand tab in [Google Sheets](/integrations/google-sheets), and the agent compares each number to the prior week. Movements beyond the team's thresholds go to the channel with the network and metric named. The month-end deck pulls from the sheet, and the screenshot ritual is retired.

Agency queue audit across client brands

An agency manages a dozen client brands in one Metricool account. Each morning an agent walks List Brands, then runs List Scheduled Posts for the next 72 hours per brand. It flags gaps where a client has nothing queued, collisions where two posts target the same network within an hour, and drafts still awaiting approval inside 24 hours of their slot. The account manager gets one digest instead of twelve dashboard checks, and decides what to fill, move, or chase.

Human-in-Loop Highlight

Create Scheduled Post with auto-publish on is a commitment: at the scheduled minute, the text and media go live on every selected network under the brand's name, and a retraction on Instagram or LinkedIn is a public event of its own. So FlowRunner workflows treat the auto-publish flag as the gate. Agents draft at machine speed, attach media, pick slots, and check the queue for collisions, but the version that publishes is the version a person approved, and the approval happens with the full preview in front of them: copy, image, networks, and time. A wrong number in a pricing announcement or a client post scheduled to the wrong brand's blogId is cheap to catch as a draft and expensive to catch in a screenshot someone else took.
