Within the Live URL, after the proposal is submitted, you are able to deliver content manually for the brand you are working with based on their requirements or request. Use the following steps to learn how to deliver upload types of content.
Within this article, you will learn how to:
- Deliver Network Posts and Videos
- Deliver Instagram Stories and Insights
- Deliver Content via a General Upload
Deliver Network Posts and Videos
You are able to deliver network posts and videos manually within your Live URL if you do not have your social media accounts connected. Once uploaded, the brand you are working with will be able to view the content and the associated metrics for that content.
The brand will then review to be able to determine if your collaboration was successful, which could lead to more sponsorships in the future. Posts from Instagram, Facebook, Youtube, etc. can be uploaded using the following steps.
Note
If you have already connected your social media accounts there is no need to upload posted content. GRIN will pull in content with the appropriate hashtags/mentions automatically without the need for a manual upload. But, if your brand wants to review your content before posting then upload your content via General Upload.
Step 1 Copy the full URL of your post or video from your social media account.
Step 2 Within your Live URL, locate the campaign you have applied for and click My Proposals.
Step 3 On the next page, click View Details.
Step 4 Scroll down to the Review Tasks section and click Deliver.
Step 4 Locate the task to upload content for and click the Upload icon.
Step 4 Paste the copied post URL in the box and click the Deliver button.
Note
If you receive an error message when delivering your content, this may indicate that your content has already been pulled in, based on the hashtag and/or mentions that were used in your post. If you receive an error first check that your social media is connected and if not please contact your Brand.
Delivering Instagram Stories
Instagram stories and story insights take a slightly different process than uploading posts because they are not visible after a 24hr period. After the 24hr period, stories disappear from public view and are then stored in an archive, if set up, along with story insights.
Please keep in mind story insights are only available for up to 14 days after a story is created. You are able to download your stories and upload them to the Live URL using the following steps:
Note
If you have already connected your social media accounts there is no need to upload posted content. GRIN will pull in content with the appropriate hashtags/mentions automatically without the need for a manual upload. But, if your brand wants to review your content before posting then upload your content via General Upload.
Step 1 Log into your Instagram account on a mobile phone and click the profile icon on the bottom right.
Step 2 Click the menu icon on the top right and select Insights.
Step 3 Under the Content tab, scroll down to Stories, select the story you would like to deliver, and swipe up from the bottom to reveal the insights.
Step 4 Click the download button on the top right to download your IG story and then take a screenshot of your story insights.
Step 5 Within your Live URL, locate the campaign you have applied for and click My Proposals.
Step 6 On the next page, click View Details.
Step 7 Scroll down to the Review Tasks section and click Deliver.
Step 8 Locate the IG Story task to upload content for and click the Upload icon.
Note
You can only upload one story file per story task. If the story has multiple frames, there would need to be a story task set up for each one.
Step 9 Click Upload Story Media, select the Instagram story that was downloaded, and click the Deliver button.
Step 10 Once the story is uploaded, a new option to deliver insights will appear. Click Upload Story Insights, upload the insights, and click the Deliver button.
Delivering Content via a General Upload
You are able to upload content that is not connected to any current task or if there is no other upload option available for your campaign tasks via a general upload. Files can be uploaded more than once, however please note that the size limit for each uploaded file is 500mb (.5GB).
General Uploads is the perfect place to submit content for approval before posting your content on social media. Once the content has been approved via General Upload then after posting either it will be pulled in automatically if your social media accounts are connected or you are able to deliver the content manually within the Tasks for Deliver Content.
Step 1 Within your Live URL, locate the campaign you have applied for and click My Proposals.
Step 2 On the next page, click View Details.
Step 7 Scroll down to the Other Uploads section and click the Upload icon.
Step 2 Choose the file you would like to upload and once uploaded, it will appear under the Other Uploads section. There is also an option to remove uploads by clicking Remove next to the upload.
Note
If the post is delivered via general upload, then we cannot pull in reporting for those posts.
