A real social media scheduling API, with webhooks you can trust
SkedCast's social media scheduling API is a versioned REST API with scoped API keys and OAuth, plus signed webhooks the moment something happens.Updated
A social media scheduling API you authenticate with API keys
Create, schedule and read posts, clients, accounts, media and analytics over a versioned REST API. Mint API keys, give each one only the scopes it needs, rotate them, and revoke them at any time.
- Authenticate with an API key or an OAuth bearer token
- Scopes limit a key to reading or to specific writes
- API keys are included from the Studio plan
Signed webhooks
Subscribe an endpoint to any of 44 events, from a post publishing or failing to a campaign being shifted. Every delivery is signed so you can verify it came from SkedCast.
- HMAC-SHA256 signatures with standard webhook headers
- Retries with exponential backoff, delivered at least once
- Secrets rotate with a 24-hour overlap, so nothing drops mid-change
Built for the failure case
An endpoint that keeps failing is disabled and its owner is emailed, with the reason visible. Delivery history is kept for 90 days so you can see exactly what was sent and how your server answered.
Safe by default
Webhook endpoints must use HTTPS URLs, and the API enforces your plan on every request, not only when a key is created.
API & webhooks FAQ
- Does SkedCast have a public API?
- Yes. A versioned REST API covers posts, clients, accounts, media and analytics, authenticated by scoped API keys or OAuth 2.1.
- How are SkedCast webhooks secured?
- Each delivery is signed with HMAC-SHA256, endpoints must use HTTPS URLs, and secrets rotate with a 24-hour overlap.
- What happens if my webhook endpoint is down?
- Deliveries retry with exponential backoff. An endpoint that keeps failing is disabled, its owner is emailed, and the delivery history is kept for 90 days.
- Which plan includes webhooks?
- Webhooks are included from the Studio plan.
- Is SkedCast a social media management API, not just a scheduler API?
- Both. The same versioned REST API covers scheduling (posts, campaigns, best times) and management (clients, accounts, media, analytics, approvals), so a social media scheduler API and a social media management API are the same surface here.
- Is there a social media planner API for building a custom calendar UI?
- Yes — the same REST API that schedules and publishes posts also reads the calendar data (scheduled posts, best times, campaigns) a custom planner UI needs.
