Profile says it's already connected to another workspace

When you try to connect a social media account and see a message like "@username is already integrated on another Ordinal workspace", it means that specific account is currently linked to a different Ordinal workspace.
​

Why does this happen?

On some channels (excluding LinkedIn and Discord), a social media account can only be connected to one Ordinal workspace at a time. This restriction exists to:

  • Prevent scheduling conflicts between teams

  • Keep analytics and post history organized

  • Ensure clear ownership of each social account

Note: This restriction does not apply to LinkedIn or Discord, both of which can connect the same profile(s) to multiple workspaces.

Common situations where this occurs:

  • You previously used Ordinal with a different team or company

  • A colleague connected the account to their workspace

  • You're switching from a personal workspace to a team workspace

  • Your organization created a new workspace and needs to migrate accounts

How to fix this

You cannot disconnect the account yourself from the other workspace. Chat with us or email [email protected] to resolve this issue.
