Wixel: Connecting Your Apps and Social Accounts

Connect your apps and social media accounts to Wixel to get more out of your projects. Connect an app so the Wixel Agent can work with your content during a task, or connect a social media account so you can publish designs to it yourself.

Connecting your apps

Connect an app so the Wixel Agent can work with content that lives outside Wixel. Connected apps work in both directions: the Wixel Agent can bring content into your project and send finished work out.

For example, ask the Wixel Agent to pull your latest Instagram posts into a collage and upload the result to a new Pinterest board, or to save a finished design straight to a Google Drive folder.

Notes:

• App connections are separate from social media accounts. Connecting Instagram as an app does not connect it for publishing from the Share & Download window, and vice versa.

• You can have one connected app with the free Wixel plan. Upgrade to a paid plan to connect multiple apps.

To connect an app:

1. Go to your project in Wixel.

2. Choose how you want to connect:

   • During a task: Ask the Wixel Agent to do something that needs the app or send "Connect [name of app]".

   • Ahead of time: Click the Add icon + at the bottom of the chat, then click Connect apps.

3. Click Connect and follow the on-screen instructions to log in and authorize the app.

Disconnecting your apps

Disconnect an app at any time. The Wixel Agent stops being able to reach that app's content straight away, and anything you already brought into your project stays where it is.

To disconnect an app:

1. Go to your project in Wixel.

2. Click the Add icon + at the bottom of the chat.

3. Click Disconnect next to the relevant app.

   Tip: You can also send the Wixel Agent "Disconnect [name of app]".

Connecting your social media accounts

Connect your social media accounts in a project to publish content to them directly. You can connect more than one to publish the same content to multiple channels at the same time.

Notes:

• These accounts are for publishing a design yourself from the Share & Download window. To let the Wixel Agent work with an app during a task, connect it as an app instead.

• Social media accounts are connected per project, not per account.

To connect your social media accounts:

1. Go to your project in Wixel.

2. Select a relevant design in your project.

3. Click Share & Download at the top right.

4. Click a social media platform icon (e.g. Instagram or TikTok).

5. Connect the relevant platform:

Disconnecting your social media accounts

You can disconnect a social media account from Wixel at any time. Do this if you no longer want to post to a particular account through Wixel, or if you need to connect a different one.

To disconnect your social media accounts:

1. Go to your project in Wixel.

2. Select a relevant design in your project.

3. Click a social media platform icon (e.g. Instagram, YouTube).

4. Click Manage under the social media account you want to disconnect.

5. Click Disconnect Account.
