🔗 Platforms (setup-platforms.html)

The OAuth connection manager.

The Platforms page is the bridge between the BDS Growth Engine and the outside world. This is where you grant the AI secure, authenticated access to publish content directly to your social media channels and content management systems.

For All Users (Starter to Enterprise):

This page serves as your master connection hub. You will see a list of 12 distinct platforms ranging from established giants to emerging networks. Clicking "Connect" routes you through that specific platform's secure OAuth flow (e.g., Google, Meta, LinkedIn).

Video Networks: YouTube, Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels.
Text & Image Networks: LinkedIn, Facebook Pages, Threads.
CMS Blogs: Blogger, Ghost CMS, WordPress.

Platform Liability Notice: The system explicitly warns all users that excessive automation can trigger spam filters. The AI handles the heavy lifting, but you own the strategic risk. BDS provides the software; you provide the strategy.

Client Connections (Agency Architecture):

This is where the architecture strictly diverges! As an Agency Admin, the connections on this screen are only for your agency's internal marketing accounts.

There is no dropdown toggle on this page. You cannot connect social media accounts on behalf of your clients. This is a critical security and compliance architecture: Your clients must log into their own secure Client Portal to grant OAuth permissions.

This architecture ensures strict legal compliance, prevents unauthorized cross-posting between clients, and allows the client to revoke access at any time smoothly without involving the agency.

The White-Label Experience:

If you look closely at the footer of this page on an Enterprise tier, you will see it reads "© 2026 [Your Agency Name]". When your clients log into their strictly-isolated portal to connect their Facebook or YouTube, they are interacting with your White-Label brand, creating a completely seamless, premium agency experience.
