Save a post as a draft

When creating a post in the composer, you can save it as a draft if you want to finish, edit, or publish it later.

  1. Click the down arrow next to Schedule.

  2. Select Save as Draft.

Your post will be saved in the Drafts section, where you can edit, schedule, publish, or delete it later.

Save a post to a queue

You can also save a post to a queue so it publishes automatically according to that queue's schedule.

  1. Click the down arrow next to Schedule.

  2. Select Save to Queue.

  3. In the Add to Queue window, select one or more queues.

  4. Click Save.

If no queues are available, create a queue first from Publish > Queues. Once a queue exists, you can add posts to it from the composer.

Preview your post before publishing

Before publishing or scheduling, use Preview to see how your post may appear for the selected network or account. This helps you review the content, formatting, media, and layout before it goes live.

If you selected multiple account types, use the preview tabs to switch between networks. The preview is only a guide, so the final post may look slightly different on the social network itself.
