Mentions Feed Overview
Use the Mentions Feed to review collected social and web mentions in real time.
The Mentions Feed provides a real-time stream of all collected social media posts related to your search queries. Mentions are displayed in a clean, card-based layout that helps you quickly analyze content, sentiment, engagement, and conversation patterns across platforms.
This section explains how to navigate and use all features inside the Mentions tab.
1. Live Mention Stream
- Mentions are shown in chronological order, with the most recent appearing first.
- Each mention is displayed as a card, containing:
- Platform source (e.g., Instagram, Facebook, X/Twitter)
- Author or page name (with verification badge if available)
- Date and time published
- Text preview with the option to expand (“More”)
- Attached images or videos
- Sentiment label (Positive, Neutral, Negative) with scoring
- Engagement metrics such as likes, comments, shares, and reach
- The stream updates continuously, allowing real-time monitoring of conversations.
2. Search Bar (Filter Within Results)
A built-in search bar allows you to filter the mentions already displayed in your feed.
You can search by:
- Keywords or phrases
- Hashtags
- Usernames or handles

Use this feature to:
- Quickly find mentions related to specific topics

3. Sorting Options
You can sort mention cards to prioritize the insights you need.
Sorting options include:

Sorting helps you:
- Spot high-impact or critical mentions faster

This helps you:

5. Pagination & Infinite Scroll
Depending on your interface configuration, the feed supports:
Pagination

6. Mention Card Actions
Each mention card includes quick-action buttons for:

- Exporting or reporting the mention
- Viewing platform-specific metadata when available
These actions allow deeper investigation without leaving the Mentions tab.
