Manage your channels
Channels is where every account you've connected lives — its status, a manual refresh, the group it belongs to, and the option to disconnect it.
Updated 2026-10-02
Connection status
Each connected account shows a status badge: Live means it’s healthy and ready to post; Reconnectmeans its access token has expired or was revoked on the platform’s side; Disconnected means it’s no longer linked at all. When an account needs reconnecting, connect it again the same way you did the first time.
Refresh & disconnect
Each connected account has two controls. The refresh button (↻) pulls the latest name and avatar from the platform, so Kadro Social reflects a display-name or profile-picture change without you having to reconnect. Disconnect removes the account entirely — it stops appearing as a target in Compose until you connect it again.
Multiple accounts & groups
You can connect as many accounts as you need, including several on the same platform — say, a personal X account and a company one. Every account belongs to a group. You start with one, Personal, and can add more under Groups at the bottom of Channels — one per brand or client is the usual setup.
- Once you have two or more groups, a switcher appears at the top of the sidebar. Pick a group, or All accounts to see everything at once.
- Compose, Posts, Analytics, and Channelsshow only the selected group’s accounts and posts.
- A newly connected account joins the selected group (your default group when All accountsis selected). Use the move control on an account’s row to put it in another group.
- Rename a group in place. To delete one, move or disconnect its accounts and delete its posts first; your default group can’t be deleted.
If you only post for yourself, you can ignore groups entirely — the switcher stays hidden until you add a second one.
Coming soon
YouTube is built and rolling out as its API review completes. Until a platform goes live for your account, its tile on Channels shows a “Soon” tag instead of a Connect button.
What to have ready once it opens up:
- YouTube — a channel; posts are vertical or square Shorts under three minutes.
