social sindy

Frequently asked questions

What does it do?

Connect your Buffer account, pick your channels, and get a private URL. Subscribe to it in your calendar app (ICS) or RSS reader (Atom) — your posts show up automatically, updated in the background.

Does it have access to my whole Buffer account?

Only your channels and your scheduled or published posts. Nothing else — no analytics, no comments, no DMs. And the OAuth scope is read-only, so it can never post on your behalf.

What's the difference between ICS and Atom?

ICS is for calendars — each post becomes a timed event with a start time and duration. Atom is for feeds — each post becomes an entry with the full text and links, readable in any RSS app or email tool. You can create both from the same Buffer connection.

How often does it refresh?

You pick the interval when you create a sindy — every hour, every 6 hours, or once a day. Calendar apps and RSS readers also have their own refresh schedules, so updates may take a bit longer to appear depending on the app.

Is the feed URL private?

Yes. Anyone with the URL can read the feed, so keep it to yourself. You can generate a new URL at any time, which immediately invalidates the old one.

Can I delete my account?

Yes. From your dashboard, there's a "Delete account" option that removes everything immediately. You can also revoke the connection from your Buffer settings at any time.
