Introducing the ContentStudio API: Automate your social media workflow

Managing social media at scale shouldn’t mean being tied to a dashboard. Whether you’re building custom integrations, automating repetitive tasks, or connecting ContentStudio with your existing tools, you need programmatic access that’s fast, reliable, and easy to use. That’s why we’re excited to announce the official launch of the ContentStudio API, which gives you complete control over your social media management workflow through code.

What is the ContentStudio API?

The ContentStudio API is a comprehensive REST API that allows you to programmatically interact with ContentStudio’s powerful social media management platform. Instead of manually managing content through the dashboard, you can now integrate ContentStudio directly into your automation workflows and existing tech stack.

This means you can build custom solutions that fit your exact needs—whether that’s auto-publishing product launches, syncing content from your CMS, triggering social posts from your e-commerce platform, or creating sophisticated multi-channel campaigns through code. The API handles all the complexity of multi-platform social media management while giving you the flexibility to build exactly what your business requires.

What you can do with the ContentStudio API

The ContentStudio API puts the full power of ContentStudio at your fingertips. Here’s what you can accomplish:

Automate content publishing: Create, schedule, and publish posts across Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, YouTube, TikTok, and more, all from favorite automation tools like Zapier, Make, n8n, and Pabbly.

Manage workspaces programmatically: Organize your content and team members across multiple workspaces without manual setup.

Connect social accounts: Retrieve and manage all connected social media accounts for seamless multi-platform publishing.

Handle media and content: Upload images and videos, manage drafts, and track publishing status in real-time.

Integrate with your stack: Connect ContentStudio with tools like Zapier, Make.com, n8n, pabbly or your custom-built applications to create powerful automation workflows.

Why this matters for your workflow

If you’ve ever found yourself manually copying content between systems, scheduling the same post multiple times, or wishing you could trigger social posts from your CRM or e-commerce platform; the ContentStudio API solves those very problems.

Save time on repetitive tasks

Automate content distribution so your team can focus on strategy and creativity instead of manual posting.

Build custom solutions

Whether you need to sync product launches with social announcements or auto-publish blog posts when they go live, you can now build exactly what your business needs.

Scale without friction

Managing dozens of accounts or workspaces becomes effortless when you can programmatically handle operations that would take hours manually.

Maintain consistency

Ensure brand voice and posting schedules stay on track by integrating ContentStudio into your content calendar and approval workflows.

Getting started is simple

We’ve designed the API to be developer-friendly with clear documentation and straightforward authentication. Here’s how to get up and running:

Generate your API key

• Step 1: Click on your profile picture in the top-right corner, and select the API Key option from the dropdown menu.

• Step 2: Click on Generate API Key and copy your unique API key.

• Step 3: Click on the three dots next to your API key. You’ll see two options:
  • Regenerate: Create a new API key if your current one is compromised or you want to reset access.
  • Revoke: Permanently disable the existing API key if it’s no longer needed.

Your API key is ready to use immediately in integrations like Zapier, Make.com, or custom applications.

Authenticate your requests

All API requests use a simple header-based authentication system. Just include your API key in the X-API-Key header:

X-API-Key: <YOUR_API_KEY>

Core endpoints available now

The API includes everything you need to manage your social media operations:

• Get authenticated user: Verify your API key and retrieve your account information
• Get workspaces: Fetch all workspaces linked to your account 
• Get social accounts: Retrieve connected accounts for any workspace, with platform filtering (e.g., Facebook, Instagram)
• Get posts: Fetch posts with filtering by status (draft, scheduled, published, failed)
• Create post: Schedule or immediately publish content with text, images, and videos to multiple accounts
• Delete post: Remove posts by ID when needed

For complete endpoint documentation, code examples, and detailed request/response formats, visit the ContentStudio API Guide.

Managing your API key securely

Regenerate when needed: If your API key is ever compromised or you need to reset access, click the three dots next to your key and select Regenerate. Note that your old key will stop working immediately, so update it in all integrations.

Revoke if no longer needed: Permanently disable your API key by selecting Revoke. Any integrations using it will stop working until you generate a new one.

Treat it like a password: Never share your API key publicly or expose it in client-side code. Store it securely as an environment variable in your applications.

Important notes

• Only one active API key is available per account at a time
• When you regenerate your key, update it immediately in all platforms where you’ve used it (Zapier, Make.com, custom apps, etc.)
• The API uses standard HTTP status codes (200 for success, 401 for authentication errors, 429 for rate limits, etc.)
• All responses are returned in JSON format with clear error messages
