Medium

Connect Medium with an integration token and publish Markdown stories, optionally to a publication you can write to.

On this page

What you need

  • A Medium account.
  • A Medium integration token, created from your Medium security settings if your account still offers them. Medium decides who can create tokens and owns that screen. If your account cannot create one, the connection cannot be made.

Connect

  1. On the calendar page choose Add Channel, then Medium.
  2. Paste the token into API key and save.
  3. PostDelegate asks Medium who the token belongs to and shows your name and avatar on the channel.

Where it publishes
