Why were no channels detected for my new source?

Short Answer

If no channels were detected, Picasi analyzed the website and did not find any linked or recognizable channels. An email address was created anyway—you can use that. Channels can always be added manually.

Automatic channel discovery works well for companies that prominently link their social media channels on their website. Some companies don’t do this, or their website is technically structured in a way that prevents Picasi from finding the links.

What you can do:

Manually search for the company’s channels. Go to LinkedIn, search for the company, and copy the profile URL. Do the same for YouTube. Then manually add these channels via Open Source → Channels → Add New Channel.

For newsletters, subscribe to the company’s newsletter using the automatically generated Picasi email address. You can find it in the source’s channel list.
