Publora

Publora API — Core Skill

Publora is an affordable REST API for scheduling and publishing social media posts across 10 platforms. Base URL: https://api.publora.com/api/v1

Authentication

All requests require the x-publora-key header. Keys start with sk_.

curl https://api.publora.com/api/v1/platform-connections \
  -H "x-publora-key: sk_YOUR_KEY"

Get your key: publora.com → Settings → API Keys → Generate API Key. ⚠️ Copy immediately — shown only once.

Step 0: Get Platform IDs

Always call this first to get valid platform IDs before posting.

GET /api/v1/platform-connections

const res = await fetch('https://api.publora.com/api/v1/platform-connections', {
  headers: { 'x-publora-key': 'sk_YOUR_KEY' }
});
const { connections } = await res.json();
// connections[i].id → use this as platform ID (e.g. "linkedin-ABC123")

Platform IDs look like: twitter-123, linkedin-ABC, instagram-456, threads-789, etc.

Post Immediately

Omit scheduledTime to publish right away:

await fetch('https://api.publora.com/api/v1/create-post', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'x-publora-key': 'sk_YOUR_KEY' },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    content: 'Your post content here',
    platforms: ['twitter-123', 'linkedin-ABC']
  })
});

Schedule a Post

Include scheduledTime in ISO 8601 UTC — must be at least 2 minutes in the future:

await fetch('https://api.publora.com/api/v1/create-post', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'x-publora-key': 'sk_YOUR_KEY' },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    content: 'Scheduled post content',
    platforms: ['twitter-123', 'linkedin-ABC'],
    scheduledTime: '2026-03-16T10:00:00.000Z'
  })
});
// Response: { postGroupId: "pg_abc123", scheduledTime: "..." }

Save as Draft

Omit scheduledTime — post is created as draft. Schedule it later:

// Create draft
const { postGroupId } = await createPost({ content, platforms });

// Schedule later
await fetch(`https://api.publora.com/api/v1/update-post/${postGroupId}`, {
  method: 'PUT',
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'x-publora-key': 'sk_YOUR_KEY' },
  body: JSON.stringify({ status: 'scheduled', scheduledTime: '2026-03-16T10:00:00.000Z' })
});

Bulk Schedule (a Week of Content)

from datetime import datetime, timedelta, timezone
import requests

HEADERS = { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'x-publora-key': 'sk_YOUR_KEY' }
base_date = datetime(2026, 3, 16, 10, 0, 0, tzinfo=timezone.utc)

posts = ['Monday post', 'Tuesday post', 'Wednesday post', 'Thursday post', 'Friday post']

for i, content in enumerate(posts):
    scheduled_time = base_date + timedelta(days=i)
    requests.post('https://api.publora.com/api/v1/create-post', headers=HEADERS, json={
        'content': content,
        'platforms': ['twitter-123', 'linkedin-ABC'],
        'scheduledTime': scheduled_time.isoformat()
    })

Media Uploads

All media (images and videos) use a 3-step S3 pre-signed upload workflow:

Step 1: POST /api/v1/create-post → get postGroupId
Step 2: POST /api/v1/get-upload-url → get uploadUrl
Step 3: PUT {uploadUrl} with file bytes (no auth needed for S3)

import requests

HEADERS = { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'x-publora-key': 'sk_YOUR_KEY' }

# Step 1: Create post
post = requests.post('https://api.publora.com/api/v1/create-post', headers=HEADERS, json={
    'content': 'Check this out!',
    'platforms': ['instagram-456'],
    'scheduledTime': '2026-03-15T14:30:00.000Z'
}).json()
post_group_id = post['postGroupId']

# Step 2: Get pre-signed upload URL
upload = requests.post('https://api.publora.com/api/v1/get-upload-url', headers=HEADERS, json={
    'fileName': 'photo.jpg',
    'contentType': 'image/jpeg',
    'type': 'image',  # or 'video'
    'postGroupId': post_group_id
}).json()

# Step 3: Upload directly to S3 (no auth header needed)
with open('./photo.jpg', 'rb') as f:
    requests.put(upload['uploadUrl'], headers={'Content-Type': 'image/jpeg'}, data=f)

Key Notes

• Carousel/album: call get-upload-url N times for N images — all with the same postGroupId
• Max file size: 512 MB per file
• Supported image formats: JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP
• Supported video formats: MP4, MOV
• WebP auto-converted to JPEG for platforms that don't support it (LinkedIn, Bluesky, Mastodon, Telegram)
• Video metadata (duration, dimensions, codec) auto-extracted after upload

Platform-Specific Skills

For platform-specific settings and examples, install the relevant skill:

• publora-linkedin — LinkedIn posts
• publora-twitter — X/Twitter posts & threads
• publora-instagram — Instagram images/reels
• publora-threads — Threads posts
• publora-tiktok — TikTok videos
• publora-youtube — YouTube videos
• publora-facebook — Facebook posts
• publora-bluesky — Bluesky posts
• publora-mastodon — Mastodon posts
• publora-telegram — Telegram channels

Cross-Platform Threading

For platforms that support threads (X/Twitter and Threads), you can create a thread by separating post segments with --- on its own line.

await fetch('https://api.publora.com/api/v1/create-post', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'x-publora-key': 'sk_YOUR_KEY' },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    content: 'First tweet in the thread. Here is the intro.\n\n---\n\nSecond tweet continues the thought.\n\n---\n\nThird tweet wraps it up. Follow for more!',
    platforms: ['twitter-123', 'threads-789']
  })
});

The --- separator tells Publora to split the content into individual thread posts. Each segment becomes its own post in the thread, linked together automatically. Only X/Twitter and Threads support threading — on other platforms the --- is treated as plain text.
