"Post once, publish everywhere" is one of those phrases that sounds like marketing until you actually see it working — one upload, and every connected account gets it without you touching them individually. Here's what's actually happening behind that idea in OneUp.

## The core mechanism

OneUp's crossposting feature connects one **source account** (where you're posting _from_) to one or more **destination accounts** (where that content automatically gets sent). Once the workflow is live, it stays running in the background — you don't re-trigger it for every post, it just watches for new content and republishes it.

## Setting up an ongoing crossposting workflow

1. **Connect every account involved** from the **Accounts** page — both your source and all your intended destinations.
2. **Open the Crossposting menu** from the dropdown next to **Create a post**, and click **Add Workflow**.
3. **Choose your source account** — currently, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok can all be set as a source directly. X can also act as a source, but it requires a separate setup through Grok rather than OneUp's standard workflow builder.
4. **Choose your destination accounts** — you can send one source to multiple destinations in the same workflow.
5. **Filter by content type** if you don't want every post format (Stories, Reels, carousels) treated the same way across every destination.
6. **Launch the workflow.** From here, it runs continuously — new content on your source account publishes to your destinations automatically.

## The distinction worth understanding

This same feature can also be pointed backward at your _existing_ content to migrate a back catalog to a new platform — that's a one-time, scoped workflow. What's described here is the ongoing version: it keeps running indefinitely, applying to new content as you create it, not just what already exists.

## Why this matters more than it seems

Most accounts that post inconsistently across multiple platforms aren't short on content — they're short on the time it takes to manually repost the same thing three or four times. Automating that step doesn't just save time; it usually means your secondary platforms actually stay active instead of quietly going stale.
