Projects and Connecting Platforms
How projects work and how to connect Telegram, YouTube, VK and your own website. Access permissions, a custom bot for Telegram, and handling several platforms at once.
How projects work and how to connect Telegram, YouTube, VK and your own website. Access permissions, a custom bot for Telegram, and handling several platforms at once.
A project is the central unit of Telematic: one workspace with a shared language, style and sources, to which you connect publishing platforms. A single material in a project turns into separate versions for every connected platform.
Things to know:
Connection goes through official Google authorization (OAuth) β your password is never shared with the service, and access can be revoked in your Google account settings at any time.
For text posts, connecting a community is enough. For posts with images, VK requires authorization as a user who administers the community (via VK ID) β this is VK's own restriction: communities cannot upload media with their own key.
A project's finished content can be pulled to your website via API β that's how our own blog works, for example. Details in "Website Integration via API".
Connect Telegram, YouTube and VK to a single project β and every material gets its own version for each platform: a short post with an image for Telegram, an expanded description for YouTube, a text for VK. Platform rules and limits are handled automatically, and you can publish everywhere at once or selectively (see "Publishing and the Calendar").
