Known limitations
What the API does, it does for real. But some things aren't built yet — here they are in plain sight, each with a workaround, so nothing surprises you in production.
API surface
| Limitation | Today | Workaround |
|---|---|---|
| Connecting accounts | The API is read-only for accounts — no POST /accounts. | Connect from the dashboard; list over the API. |
| Per-network status | The post object exposes aggregate status, not per-network delivery. | Use account health and the dashboard; retry per network. |
| Reschedule | No in-place reschedule endpoint. | Cancel and re-create at the new time. |
| Idempotency | No idempotency keys — repeated POSTs publish again. | Track sent ids on your side before retrying. |
| API-call limit | Usage is metered against your allowance, not hard-blocked with a 429. | Watch usage on /me and upgrade ahead of the ceiling. |
Publishing & media
| Limitation | Today | Workaround |
|---|---|---|
| Media hosting | No managed uploads — media must be a public URL you host. | Host on your CDN and pass the URL. See Media. |
| Multiple media | One media URL per post; no carousels via the API. | Send a single image or video per post. |
| Async confirmation | TikTok / YouTube handoffs aren't polled to a final status. | Treat published as “handed off”; confirm in-app for now. |
| Analytics | Only an account-level summary — no per-post analytics endpoint. | Use Get analytics for totals. |
Connections & tokens
| Limitation | Today | Workaround |
|---|---|---|
| Hosted OAuth | OAuth networks need a pasted access token; no hosted callback yet. | Supply a token when connecting. See connecting accounts. |
| Token refresh | No automated refresh of long-lived tokens. | Reconnect when health flips to attention. |
| Review & tiers | Some networks gate public posting behind review or a paid tier. | Each platform guide names the gate (e.g. X paid tier, TikTok audit). |
Everything else is real
These are the edges — not the whole picture. The core loop (connect, publish, schedule, measure) works end to end against real network APIs. See the roadmap for when these edges close.
