Four steps take you from an empty organization to a post on a real social account. None of them need code — you can publish the first one from the dashboard and only then wire up your backend.
1

Connect a social account

Open Connections in the sidebar and select Nylon-managed OAuth. Pick a network, authorize it with the provider, and the profile appears in your list.
Add a connection panel listing networks, each with a short description and an arrow to continue, and X, LinkedIn and TikTok marked Coming soon

The Add a connection panel, listing every network Nylon integrates with.

The full walkthrough, including the networks whose flows differ, is in Connect an account.
2

Publish a test post

Open Test in the sidebar, choose the profile you just connected, write a line of text and select the publish button. This proves the connection works end to end before any of your code is involved.See Publish a test post.
3

Create an API key

Open API in the sidebar and select Create API key. The key is shown once — copy it into your secret manager before closing the dialog.See API keys.
4

Make your first request

Send the key as a bearer token from your backend:
The Quickstart takes it from there: validating a post, publishing it, and handling a partial failure.
