Why you cannot post the same content to multiple accounts on the same platform

Post Bridge restricts posting identical content to multiple accounts on the same social media platform to protect all users from losing API access.

Platform Terms of Service restrictions

Most social media platforms prohibit posting the same content at the same time to multiple accounts through their APIs. This includes:

Multiple Instagram accounts
Multiple Facebook pages
Multiple accounts on other platforms

Violating these Terms of Service can result in API access being revoked for all Post Bridge users.

Posting identical content to multiple accounts may result in no views and account penalties from the platform.

Why this protection matters

Post bridge enforces this restriction to safeguard the entire user base. If API access is lost due to Terms of Service violations, it would affect all 9,000+ post bridge users.

Workaround for reposting similar content

If you want to use similar content across multiple Instagram accounts, you need to create different file fingerprints by:

Changing the file name
Modifying parts of the file content
Re-exporting the file to create new metadata

These changes help the platform recognize the content as unique rather than duplicate.
