To share a Storybook on websites such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, simply provide the link to the branded Storybook in the text entry box, and add any other text you'd like into the post.
We also have a new social sharing feature to post your Storybooks to social with just one click!
For sharing on sites such as Instagram, where you cannot simply enter text alone, we provide animated thumbnails you can post. We recommend putting the URL to your Storybook or Studeo Shelf in your user bio, since you can't put links in an individual post.
You can also post an Instagram Story and use their new "link sticker" feature to embed your Storybook URL right inside your Instagram Story, making it simple to drive your audience directly to a Storybook!
Facebook and many other platforms provide a free-to use share link preview tool:
Facebook: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/
LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/post-inspector/
You can use these tools to check how your Storybooks will look when you make a post with the Storybook URL, before you actually publish the post.
The best way to ensure a good image is used for your sharing image preview on social media is to have a base image in place on the cover page of your Storybook. If you have a video on the cover, the base image for the video is what will be used (you can always adjust the base image to whatever you like). If you have a slideshow on the front cover, the first image in the slideshow is what will be used.
