Document the trigger conditions
Read the supported content formats, account identifier and any detection window specified in the listing. Ask whether the arrangement covers only new eligible posts and how earlier content is treated if the description is unclear.
Map the editorial calendar
Compare the planned publication types with the documented scope. A calendar containing Reels, carousels and other items should not be treated as uniformly eligible unless the service explicitly supports each relevant format.
Review missed publications carefully
Keep a publication timestamp and the automatic service record for each intended target. If an item appears absent, check eligibility and the stated detection process before creating a manual order that could later overlap.
Decision checklist
| Decision | What to check |
|---|---|
| Trigger | New-post rule and detection window |
| Format | Supported planned content types |
| Exception | Evidence for a missing eligible item |
Worked example
Hypothetically, an account plans two Reels and one carousel. The buyer checks whether all three formats qualify under the automatic listing. If only two are documented as eligible, the third needs its own confirmed plan rather than an assumption of automatic coverage.
Example figures explain the decision; they are not current prices or promised results.
