# Postiz Social Publishing

![Postiz Social Publishing](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ClawLink-HQ/clawlink/main/public/images/brand-logos/postiz.png)

Access Postiz's social publishing platform via the Postiz API. Manage social publishing, scheduled posts, and content workflows across connected social accounts.

This skill uses [ClawLink](https://claw-link.dev/?utm_source=clawhub&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=postiz-social) for hosted connection flows and credentials so you do not need to configure Postiz API access yourself.

### Setup in 3 Steps

## How It Works

```

```

## Install

Install the verified ClawLink plugin from ClawHub. After the user confirms, complete the full setup so ClawLink tools are visible in the next OpenClaw chat.

```bash
openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin
openclaw config set tools.alsoAllow '["clawlink-plugin"]' --strict-json
openclaw gateway restart
```

Then tell the user: "OpenClaw has been restarted. Send `/new` as a standalone message to start a fresh chat, then ask for Postiz again."

## Quick Start

```bash
# List scheduled posts
clawlink_call_tool --tool "postiz_list_posts" --params '{"status": "scheduled"}'

# Get post details
clawlink_call_tool --tool "postiz_get_post" --params '{"post_id": "POST_ID"}'

# List workspaces
clawlink_call_tool --tool "postiz_list_workspaces" --params '{}'
```

## Authentication

All Postiz tool calls are authenticated automatically by ClawLink using the user's connected Postiz account.

**No API key is required in chat.** ClawLink stores the OAuth token securely and injects it into every Postiz API request on the user's behalf.

### Getting Connected

1. Install the ClawLink plugin (see Install above).
2. Pair the plugin with `clawlink_begin_pairing` if it is not configured yet.
3. Open https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=postiz and connect Postiz.
4. Call `clawlink_list_integrations` to verify the connection is active.

## Connection Management

### List Connections

```bash
clawlink_list_integrations
```

**Response:** Returns all connected integrations. Look for `postiz` in the list.

### Verify Connection

```bash
clawlink_list_tools --integration postiz
```

**Response:** Returns the live tool catalog for Postiz.

### Reconnect

If Postiz tools are missing or the connection shows an error:

1. Direct the user to https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=postiz
2. After they confirm, call `clawlink_list_integrations` to verify
3. Then call `clawlink_list_tools --integration postiz`

## Security& Permissions

- Access is scoped to posts, workspaces, and content workflows within the connected Postiz account.
- **All write operations require explicit user confirmation.** Before executing any create, update, or delete call, confirm the target resource and intended effect with the user.
- Publishing, editing, or deleting posts affects live social accounts — confirm carefully.
- Destructive actions must be confirmed.

## Discovery Workflow

1. Call `clawlink_list_integrations` to confirm Postiz is connected.
2. Call `clawlink_list_tools --integration postiz` to see the live catalog.
3. Treat the returned list as the source of truth. Do not guess or assume what tools exist.
4. If the user describes a capability but the exact tool is unclear, call `clawlink_search_tools` with a short query and integration `postiz`.
5. If no Postiz tools appear, direct the user to https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=postiz.

## Execution Workflow

```
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ READ OPERATIONS (Safe) │
│ list → get → search → describe → call │
│ │
│ Example: List scheduled posts → Get details → Show queue │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
│
▼
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ WRITE OPERATIONS (Require Confirmation) │
│ list → get → describe → preview → confirm → call │
│ │
│ Example: Describe tool → Preview changes → User approves │
│ → Execute update │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```

1. For unfamiliar tools, ambiguous requests, or any write action, call `clawlink_describe_tool` first.
2. Use the returned guidance, schema, `whenToUse`, `askBefore`, `safeDefaults`, `examples`, and `followups` to shape the call.
3. Prefer read, list, search, and get operations before writes when that reduces ambiguity.
4. For writes or anything marked as requiring confirmation, call `clawlink_preview_tool` first.
5. Execute with `clawlink_call_tool`. Pass confirmation only after the preview matches the user's intent.
6. If the tool call fails, report the real error. Do not invent results or restate the failure as a missing capability unless the live catalog supports that conclusion.

## Code Examples

### List scheduled posts

```bash
clawlink_call_tool --tool "postiz_list_posts" \
--params '{
"workspace_id": "WORKSPACE_ID",
"status": "scheduled",
"limit": 50
}'
```

### Create a post

```bash
clawlink_call_tool --tool "postiz_create_post" \
--params '{
"workspace_id": "WORKSPACE_ID",
"content": "Excited to announce our new product launch!",
"social_account_ids": ["ACCOUNT_ID"],
"scheduled_at": "2024-07-20T10:00:00Z"
}'
```

### Get post analytics

```bash
clawlink_call_tool --tool "postiz_get_post_analytics" \
--params '{
"post_id": "POST_ID"
}'
```

### Update a scheduled post

```bash
clawlink_call_tool --tool "postiz_update_post" \
--params '{
"post_id": "POST_ID",
"content": "Updated announcement with new details!"
}'
```

## Notes

- Postiz API has rate limits. Use exponential backoff when encountering 429 errors.
- Workspace IDs and post IDs are strings — verify IDs before passing to operations.
- Scheduling posts requires specifying a future `scheduled_at` timestamp in ISO 8601 format.
- Social account IDs must be from the same workspace as the post operation.

## Error Handling

| Status / Error | Meaning |
|----------------|---------|
| Tool not found | The tool name does not exist in the current catalog. Verify with `clawlink_list_tools --integration postiz`. |
| Missing connection | Postiz is not connected. Direct the user to https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=postiz. |
| `not_found` | Post, workspace, or account does not exist. Check the ID. |
| `validation_error` | Invalid parameter or missing required field. Review the tool schema with `clawlink_describe_tool`. |
| Rate limited | Too many requests. Wait and retry with exponential backoff. |
| Write rejected | User did not confirm a write action. Always confirm before executing writes. |

### Troubleshooting: Tools Not Visible

1. Check that the ClawLink plugin is installed:
```bash
openclaw plugins list
```
2. If the plugin is installed but tools are missing, tell the user to send `/new` as a standalone message to reload the catalog.
3. If a fresh chat does not help, run:
```bash
openclaw config set tools.alsoAllow '["clawlink-plugin"]' --strict-json
openclaw gateway restart
```
4. After restart, tell the user to send `/new` again and retry.

### Troubleshooting: Invalid Tool Call

1. Ensure the integration slug is exactly `postiz`.
2. Use `clawlink_describe_tool` to verify parameter names and types before calling.
3. For write operations, always call `clawlink_preview_tool` first.
