Facilitating Content Approvals

If your campaign requires creators to submit their content for approval before they can publish it live, here are the steps you can follow.

1. In the Creator Requirements tab within the Settings menu in the dashboard, select 'edit' on CONTENT SCHEDULE & APPROVAL.      
2. Set 'CONTENT APPROVAL' to 'Required'.
3. Set the submission deadline "SUBMIT BY DATE"
4. Here you can also specify live post dates - when creators are required to publish their live post.     
5. Once you 'Save' your settings, DEFAULT POST REQUIREMENTS will be automatically populated. DEFAULT POST REQUIREMENTS are the default settings that will be applied to each creator you invite to the campaign. You can further customize the default here by selecting 'edit'.                                                                                                                                                                  REQUIREMENTS under each creator shows the settings per the DEFAULT POST REQUIREMENTS. The settings can be customized per creator by selecting 'edit'        
6. Requirements you have set will be communicated to creators via a web page that creators will have access from a link in the campaign invitation or acceptance email you send from the dashboard. For more details, checkout the article: Inviting / Accepting Creators to Campaign.
7. Once you've accepted creators to the campaign, you can facilitate conversations with the creator via MESSAGES.       
8. When you send a message from here, the creator will receive an email (make sure their correct email address is on their profile). Their replies will arrive here in the MESSAGES as well as in your email inbox. Here you can request creator to submit their contents, provide feedback, etc. IMPORTANT: If creator replies with a file attachment such as image, video, etc., the attachment will not be available in the MESSAGES section. However, you will be able to access the attachment in your email inbox.
9. As you work with creators and approve their contents, you can keep track of the content status in the dashboard for each post requirement for each creator.      
10. Once content is approved, you can remind the creator to post the approved content live during the live post period.
