Dépannage social Sprout
Problem: A connected profile keeps disconnecting
Cause: The network token expired, or someone changed the page admin.
Réparer: Reconnect the profile in Settings, then confirm you still hold admin rights.

Cause: Your media file breaks that network’s size or aspect rules.
Réparer: Re-upload a compliant file, then reschedule from the publishing calendar.
Problem: Listening results return almost nothing
