Field Networks Description
Network All

Mandatory. Type it exactly as written below, keep in mind capitalization:
X (Twitter)
Facebook
LinkedIn

Message All Mandatory. This is the body of the post itself. If you are tweeting, make sure to include any links in this section. Please note that they will be shortened upon publication. A link in a tweet counts as 23 characters.
LinkUrl Facebook, LinkedIn Optional. Facebook and LinkedIn posts all support link attachments. This is why you don't need to include the link in the message itself. The link attachment is constructed using four fields: LinkUrl, LinkTitle, ImageUrl, and Description. At the bottom of this article, you can find the anatomy of a link attachment.
LinkTitle Facebook, LinkedIn Optional. Used to create the headline shown in the link attachment.
ImageUrl Facebook, LinkedIn Optional. Used to create the image (thumbnail) shown in the link attachment.
Description Facebook, LinkedIn Optional. Used to create the description of the link attachment. 
Picture Facebook, X (Twitter) Optional. Used to upload an image to your post. The image must be in URL format. 
Important: On Facebook, you can either have a link attachment or upload an image, but not both. This is irrelevant for X, as it doesn't have a link attachment, and the link is just a part of the Tweet itself. If you still would like to have a link in your Facebook post, just include the link in the message itself, and don't use the link attachment option.
