Forward your work or add a link
Not everything you make lives on a feed. For a draft or an unpublished note, send an email to your workspace inbox. For a public article or video, add its URL. There is no raw-text paste box on the dashboard.
Create your workspace inbox
- Sign in to byline and open Sources (the Connect page).
- Open Email and choose Create inbox. This creates one inbox for the workspace, not one for every account member.
- Copy the address shown there or in Your sources after creation. It has the form
ingest+yourcode@inbound.byline.fyi; use your actual address, not this example.
Forward a newsletter, draft, or note from the email address that created the inbox. You can also Cc or Bcc the inbox when sending your own work. Only mail whose sender matches the inbox owner's email or an address added under Your sources → the email inbox → Allowed senders is accepted. If a collaborator sends directly, add their sending address there first. Merely knowing the inbox address does not grant permission to write to it.
byline reads the message text and subject and queues the work for processing. Attachments are not read; send the words in the message body. Forwarded material belongs to the workspace and is not a public post. It can be used in that workspace's memory; do not send confidential client material to the wrong workspace.
Add a single public link
On Sources, open Read a single URL, enter a public article or YouTube video URL of your own, and choose Read URL. byline queues analysis; it may take time before the item appears in your library. A private document link or pasted text is not accepted by this form.
If you are already using byline through a connected AI tool, you can ask it to add a public URL of your own work. For a durable brand fact rather than a draft, the connected tool can pin a memory; that is not a raw-note import.
One-off adds versus connected sources
A forwarded message or public URL is a one-off. For work on a feed, connect your own Instagram, website, or YouTube channel instead. byline checks connected channels in the background; one-off links do not turn into watched feeds.
