Social Media Assistant (via postsyncer.com)

PostSyncer Social Media Assistant

Autonomously manage social media through PostSyncer using the REST API.

Setup

1. Create a PostSyncer account at app.postsyncer.com 2. Connect social profiles (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, LinkedIn, etc.) 3. Go to Settings → API Integrations and create a personal access token with abilities: workspaces, accounts, posts, and (if you use them) labels, campaigns 4. Add to .env: POSTSYNCER_API_TOKEN=your_token

PostSyncer MCP (optional)

PostSyncer MCP uses the same Bearer token as REST. Typical tools: list-workspaces, list-accounts, post CRUD, list-media, get-media, upload-media-from-url, delete-media, list-folders, create-folder, get-folder, update-folder, delete-folder, comments, labels, campaigns, analytics.

Multipart file upload is only via REST: POST /api/v1/media/upload/file (not exposed as an MCP tool). Use upload-media-from-url or REST URL import when the client cannot send multipart.

How to Make API Calls

All requests go to https://postsyncer.com/api/v1 with the header:

Authorization: Bearer $POSTSYNCER_API_TOKEN
Content-Type: application/json

Use web_fetch, curl, or any HTTP tool available. Always read $POSTSYNCER_API_TOKEN from the environment.

Common Workflows

Schedule a Post to Multiple Platforms

1. GET /api/v1/workspaces → get workspace_id 2. GET /api/v1/accounts → get ids for target platforms 3. Optionally POST /api/v1/media/upload/url (or MCP upload-media-from-url) → use returned ids in content[].media 4. POST /api/v1/posts with schedule_type: "schedule" and schedule_for

Reply to Comments

1. GET /api/v1/posts → find post id 2. POST /api/v1/comments/sync with post_id 3. GET /api/v1/comments?post_id=123&include_replies=true 4. POST /api/v1/comments with post_id and optional parent_comment_id

Check Performance

1. GET /api/v1/analytics/posts/{id} for a specific post 2. If stale: POST /api/v1/analytics/posts/{id}/sync, then re-fetch

Best Practices

Error Handling

| Status | Meaning | |--------|---------| | 401 | Token missing or invalid | | 403 | Token lacks required ability (e.g. posts) | | 404 | Resource not found or no access | | 422 | Validation error — check required fields and formats | | 429 | Rate limited — wait before retrying |
