    • Example Workflows

  • "Post 'Just launched v2.0!' to all my accounts" — Creates a text post and publishes to all text-compatible platforms.
  • "Upload this image and post it to Instagram and Facebook with the caption 'New feature'" — Uploads the image, then publishes to selected accounts.
  • "Save a draft post about our upcoming feature for later" — Creates a draft that can be edited and published when ready. Accounts and per-platform captions are preserved.
  • "Draft a post for X and LinkedIn with different captions for each" — Creates a draft with per-platform captions stored for later publishing.
  • "Post to all accounts in my MakePost group" — Uses list_account_groups to find the group, then publishes with group_ids.
  • "Upload https://example.com/my-video.mp4 and schedule it to all my accounts tomorrow at noon" — Downloads the video, runs moderation, and schedules across all connected platforms.
  • "Post my latest video to TikTok and Instagram tomorrow at 3pm" — Finds your most recent video, picks the right accounts, and schedules it.
  • "How are my app downloads this week compared to last week?" — Pulls analytics for all your apps and compares the two periods.
  • "What keywords did my app gain or lose rankings on?" — Checks ASO keyword history and highlights changes.
  • "Lower my Pro subscription price to $4.99 in Brazil and push it live" — Stages the price change and pushes to App Store Connect after your confirmation.

    • Bulk Operations

  • "Schedule a week of posts — Monday text, Tuesday image, Wednesday video, Thursday text, Friday carousel, Saturday image, Sunday video" — Uses bulk_publish_content with 7 items, each with a different scheduled_at and content_type, all in one call.
  • "Upload these 10 product screenshots and then post them all to Instagram and LinkedIn" — First calls bulk_upload_media with 10 image URLs, then uses the returned media_ids in bulk_publish_content to publish all 10.
  • "Cancel all my scheduled posts for next week" — Lists posts filtered by status "scheduled", identifies the ones in the target date range, then calls bulk_cancel_posts with their IDs.
  • "Move all my Friday posts to Saturday at the same times" — Lists scheduled posts, filters for Friday, then calls bulk_reschedule_posts with each post shifted by one day.

    • Tips

  • App auto-selection: If you have only one app, you can omit app_id from any tool — it auto-selects.
  • Flexible app lookup: Pass an app name (case-insensitive) or bundle ID instead of the internal ID.
  • Timezone handling: schedule_post and reschedule default to your account timezone if you don't specify one.
  • Caption fallbacks: If no caption is provided, publishing uses the video's script, then its title.
  • Revenue fields: Use net_revenue for earnings questions (after Apple's cut). Use gross_revenue only when specifically asked.
  • Subscription IDs: Always use apple_subscription_id (not id) when calling pricing tools.
  • Price push safety: Always confirm with the user before calling push_price_changes — changes can take effect immediately.
  • Post to multiple platforms simultaneously by including multiple account IDs in schedule_post.
