How to Manually Implement Approval Workflows with Buffer’s Free Plan

Updated on:
April 6, 2026

Use this interactive demo to learn how to manually implement approval workflows with Buffer's free plan.

‍

‍

The simplest way to manually implement approval workflows with Buffer’s free plan is to save all the posts as drafts prior to publication. Here’s a quick guide on how to do it:

‍

  1. Inside Buffer's Publish tab, click 'New' at the top-right corner.
  2. Select 'Post' from the list of options.
  3. After that, choose the channel where you wish to publish the post.
  4. Tap the text field and type your caption.
  5. Subsequently, click the 'Upload' tab and choose the media file you want to add.
  6. Navigate to the right-hand corner, then review the post. Make your desired changes if there are any.
  7. Once done, click 'Save as Draft' to proceed.
  8. After completing these steps, the post will be stored under the Draft section while waiting for the final approval from the editor in charge. Once approved, it can be easily published by clicking the 'Add to Queue' or 'Publish Now' option.

📌 Why this matters

This manual approval system prevents costly social media mistakes from going live without oversight. You create a safety net where team members can draft content freely while maintaining quality control through a designated approver.

Beyond catching typos or off-brand messaging, this workflow becomes invaluable during sensitive periods like product launches or crisis communications, where a single poorly timed post could damage your reputation. The draft system also lets you batch-review content efficiently rather than monitoring posts in real-time throughout the day.
