Social

Save Social posts as drafts

End users can now save social posts as drafts in the Post Library, making it easier to collaborate, refine messaging, and ensure everything’s polished before publishing or submitting for approval. 

To save a post as a draft, click Save as Draft on the New Post modal. Drafts are then editable by the user or any other workspace members. Find drafts on the My Posts tab, in the Draft category. Click on a draft post to continue editing or submit the post for approval or publishing.

Draft category

The drafts feature is only available on original content and not on Suggested, Campaign, and Promoted content or Generative AI posts.

Auto-subscribe users to campaigns

Admins can now subscribe users to campaigns, ensuring more consistent social media participation and saving users time and bandwidth. When auto-subscription is turned on, all workspaces within the hierarchies the campaign is available to are automatically subscribed to that campaign. New workspaces that are added to the hierarchies are auto-subscribed as well. 

To subscribe users to a campaign, do the following:

  1. In the Administration view, on the side menu, click Create. 
  2. On the Campaigns tab, find the campaign you want to subscribe users to, and check the Auto-Subscribe box. 

3. On the popup modal, review the hierarchies and number of workspaces that will be subscribed, and click Turn On. 

If the checkbox is later unchecked, already subscribed workspaces remain subscribed while new workspaces added to the hierarchy will no longer automatically be subscribed to the campaign. 

Subscribed users receive an email notification with a Review Campaign link, allowing them to view campaign details and opt out if they choose.

Reauthenticate to LinkedIn before the current connection expires

Users can now renew their LinkedIn connection before it expires, preventing publishing interruptions or compliance gaps and reducing work for admins. Previously, users could only reauthenticate after their current connection had expired.

Now, when a LinkedIn connection is about to expire, users can do the following:

  1. Click your profile picture, then click Workspace Settings. 
  2. Select the Accounts tab. 
  3. Find your LinkedIn account and click Reconnect, then follow the prompts.

The expiration notification email has also been updated with a Reconnect Now button. Clicking it takes the user to the Accounts tab, where they can reconnect. 

The Reconnect button appears when the account is within the expiration notification window configured by your organization. To check the expiration notification window timeframe, or enable the expiration notification, contact Support at support@hearsaycorp.com.

Message scheduling enhancements

The new message scheduling workflow provides a more streamlined and intuitive Desktop experience.

Previously, users had to open a modal to compose and schedule a message, which was separate from the regular message composer. Now, users can schedule messages directly from the message composer using a new Schedule Message popover. To schedule a message:

  1. Compose your message in the message input field.
  2. Click Schedule below the composer.
  3. Select your desired send date and time.
  4. Click Agree & Schedule.

To change the schedule date and time, or to unschedule the message, click View Scheduled Messages in the conversation window and click Update. 

To get this feature for your organization, contact support at Support@hearsaycorp.com with the email titled “New Relate message scheduler, December 2025”. 

Platform

Announcement: Old Workspace and Account Overview pages being removed from platform in the February release

In the February 18th release, the old individual Workspaces and Account Overview pages will be removed from the platform, replaced with the consolidated Workspaces and Accounts tab. All functionalities are available from this single tab.

The combined tab is available in the Administration view, on the Organization page.

Data & Analytics

Suggested to Workspaces column added to the Suggested Content Performance Report

Admins can now see which workspaces a post was suggested to in the Suggested Content Performance Report. The new Suggested to Workspaces column allows admins to track suggested post performance at the workspace level.

Timestamp added to the Text Messages Attestation History Report

A Message Timestamp column has been added to the Text Messages Attestation History Report, allowing admins to track the exact timing of attestation events.
