Interacting with Facebook Groups

The company I work for, has a tech product that is used largely by educators. There is a private Facebook group that is managed/ran by educators (this is not owned/ran/managed by our company), that is a hub for our product - everything from questions, comments, etc. Is there best practices on how to interact with this Facebook group that is not owned by us? Specifically to help with questions? I wasn’t sure if anyone else had any guidelines or experience with this!

Airtable or other integrations

Hey all. We were using Airtable to plan out our social editorial cal. We had fields for status (like published, scheduled, etc) as well as the ability to connect specific social posts to other campaign records within Airtable (so that someone could see all the social posts connected to a specific project or campaign). Wondering if anyone has built a process for moving information from Sprout to Airtable. I’m specifically interested in moving Calendar/Content info to Airtable so that more parties in my organization can see what’s being planned, scheduled, posted for various projects. (for context I work at a PBS station, as an example many producers want to see social posts related to their productions). There are probably other ways to think about this so I’m open to hearing how you might’ve solved for this. Would love to chat with you if you have any thoughts.
