feature
Follow each post from draft and approval to periodic engagement syncs across Instagram, TikTok, and X.
what it does
The social media performance tracker follows each post after you approve and publish. It maps post ids, pulls the metrics the platform exposes, and stores those metrics for cross-account analysis.
The tracker works with connected accounts on Instagram, TikTok, and X. Metrics and sync behavior depend on platform permissions and API rate limits, and all drafts remain in one approval queue until a person approves them.
workflow
Connect accounts, generate drafts, approve from the single queue, and let TimeToPost publish at account best time. The system records the post id and begins periodic metric syncs once the post is live.
Metric collection is subject to each platform API and the permissions you granted. If a platform restricts a metric, the tracker will not invent values and will flag missing fields for review.
what it tracks
The social media performance tracker collects the engagement metrics each platform exposes. Typical fields include impressions, likes, comments, shares, saves, video views, and follower counts when the platform provides them.
Because APIs vary, some platforms may not expose every metric or may delay updates. The tracker surfaces which metrics are present, which are missing, and when data was last refreshed so you can act on reliable signals.
content analyst checklist
Confirm account connections, permission scopes, and that drafts flow through the single approval queue as required. Verify that published posts are linked to platform post ids so the tracker can reconcile metrics back to the original content.
Check metric completeness, sync timestamps, export options, and cross-account comparisons. If you rely on real-time metrics, note that sync cadence is governed by platform rate limits and by the plan settings in your account.
why use TTP tracker
Native analytics can be more granular or faster on a single platform, and those tools remain important. The social media performance tracker adds value by keeping posts in one approval queue, publishing at account best time, and consolidating whichever platform metrics are available into one place for analysis.
Plan settings, platform permissions, and API rate limits determine which metrics you receive and how often they refresh. Use native tools for platform-exclusive metrics and use TimeToPost to compare performance across platforms and to maintain a consistent approval-to-publish audit trail.
Questions for this workflow
TimeToPost supports live posting and tracking for Instagram, TikTok, and X. Metrics available for each post depend on the platform API and the permissions you grant when connecting each account.
Metrics are synced periodically. The exact cadence depends on platform API rate limits, the permissions you granted, and your plan settings. The tracker records the last-sync timestamp so you can see when data was refreshed.
Every draft waits in a single approval queue until a human approves it. After approval, TimeToPost publishes at the account best time and begins tracking the post with its mapped platform post id.
TimeToPost offers a single plan that includes the social media performance tracker. Specific limits such as account counts, historical data retention, and export volume are defined in your plan settings and are subject to platform permission and API rate limits. Check your account plan page for exact limits.
Start with the workflow above, keep the human review gate, and adapt the cadence to the accounts you actually operate.
