What do I do?

You just need to reconnect your social media account. But before you do this, make sure that you are either not logged in on the social media website or, if you are logged in, that you are logged into the correct account.

For example, if you want to reconnect your Twitter account, @billy, go to twitter.com. Are you logged in?

  1. If you are not logged in, or if you are already logged into @billy, then you can go onto “How to reconnect your account”.
  2. If you are logged into an account that is not @billy, please sign out and log into the correct account.
    Then go onto “How to reconnect your account”.

How to reconnect your account

Reconnect through Get Social

  • Go to Get Social
  • Click the Social Settings tab
  • Click Reconnect
  • You may be prompted to log in
  • You will be redirected back to Social Settings, and you should now see Revoke Access for the account you’ve just reconnected

If you are trying to reconnect a Facebook account, you can also do that through Integrations.

  • Go to My Profile
  • Click the Integrations tab
  • Open the Facebook Lead Ads section
  • Click Reconnect
  • You may be prompted to log in
  • You will be redirected back to Integrations, and you should now see that you are “Connected to:” your Facebook account
