Influencer Authentication

By
Fabulate

Fabulate authentication is a secure way to link social accounts so we can automatically pull post performance data from live campaigns. It’s a small change that will make a big difference.

Whether you’re a creator managing your own account or a talent manager supporting multiple creators, here’s everything you need to know.

What is Authentication?

Authentication is a secure, read-only connection to a creator’s social account. It gives Fabulate access to just the analytics for campaign content - no posting power, no DMs, no control over the account.


What it does:

  • Gives Fabulate post-level insights in real-time
  • Lets clients track performance without delays
  • Removes the need for manual reporting


What it doesn't do:

  • We can’t post, edit, or message
  • We don’t see any private content
  • We don’t take control of the account


Why it is great:

  • Less admin: No more chasing or uploading screenshots
  • Real-time performance: Clients can view campaign results as they happen
  • Stronger results: Quicker insights = faster payments, smoother wrap-ups
  • Safe & secure: Encrypted OAuth connections used by all major platforms

FAQs

Is it safe for creators?

Yes! It’s the industry standard. Fabulate only has read-only access to post analytics.

Can I revoke access?

100%. It can be disconnected anytime from the creator’s Fabulate profile settings.

What if a creator doesn't authenticate?

They can still participate in campaigns, but they’ll need to manually send performance data - which adds extra admin time. Clients are likely to lean towards working with creators that are authenticated.

What platforms are supported?

Currently Instagram, TikTok and YouTube - we’ll keep you posted on any updates.
