Browse Calendar & Publishing
The Calendar is where everything you plan to publish lives: posts for each connected social channel, documents going to your CMS, and the runs of any Playbook you have scheduled. This page shows how to read it, where drafts wait before they are scheduled, and how campaigns and time zones work.
Choose a view
The view menu at the top combines a time range with a layout.
| Time range | Use it for |
|---|---|
| Day | An hourly grid for a busy launch day |
| Week | Planning the week ahead, the default |
| Month | The big picture and gaps |
| Quarter | Campaign pacing across months |
Then pick a layout:
| Layout | What you see |
|---|---|
| Calendar | A classic grid, every channel together |
| Swimlane | One row per channel, so you can see how each feed is paced |
| List | Posts grouped by day, with platform, caption, time and status in one column, good for reviewing |
In the Swimlane layout, each connected social channel gets its own row, and there is a Documents row for content headed to your CMS. A channel that isn't connected yet shows a Connect button in its row, and + Channel adds one. Scheduled Playbook runs appear on the Calendar as well, so the weekly report sits next to the posts it will cover.
The Queue
Click Queue in the top-right corner. The Queue holds ideas and drafts that are not scheduled yet, separated into Ready and Archived, with search and filters. Three things to know:
- Add idea captures a post you haven't written yet.
- Drag a draft onto a day, or click Schedule on it, to put it on the Calendar.
- A dated draft sits on its planned day while staying in the Queue. It stays unpublished until you schedule it, so you can block out a week before the copy is final.
Suggest a week asks the Agent to fill the week from your Queue. Leave Review before scheduling on and nothing goes out without your approval.
Campaigns
A campaign groups related posts, such as everything for a product launch or a holiday promotion, so they show up together and share a color. Create, rename, recolor or delete a campaign, and move posts in or out of it, on the Calendar or by asking the Agent. Use Filter to show one campaign at a time.
Time zones
The Times in control next to the view menu shows posts in your own time zone by default. Switch it to another time zone to see the week as a teammate or an audience sees it. The times you pick when scheduling follow whichever zone is displayed.
Calendar settings
The gear next to the Times in control holds a few settings for this brand: the Brand time zone, Custom channels, and switches for Hide weekends, Show native posts and Show playbook runs. Turn off what you don't need to see, and the grid gets easier to scan.
Moving and editing posts
Drag a scheduled post to another slot to reschedule it, or to another row to change its channel. Click any post to reopen it in the composer. Published posts stay where they are and link to their performance in Channels.
The Agent on the Calendar
You don't have to leave the Calendar to ask for changes. Open the sidebar on the left and ask: "move Thursday's LinkedIn post to Friday morning", "rewrite the caption on Wednesday's Instagram post using what worked last month", "put these three posts in the Spring Launch campaign". Each change shows an approval card, and the Calendar updates the moment you approve. See Plan a Week of Posts with the Agent.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is a channel missing from the Swimlane?
It isn't connected for this brand. Click Connect in its row, or go to DNA → Connectors.
Where did my drafts go?
They are in the Queue. Open it from the top-right corner and check the Archived tab if you don't see one.
Can I see a whole quarter?
Yes. Pick Quarter as the time range, with the Calendar or Swimlane layout.
