Getting Started
Welcome to the Outstand API — a platform for scheduling and publishing social media content across multiple networks from a single integration.
Core Concepts
- Workspaces — Each account belongs to a workspace. API keys are scoped to a workspace.
- Social Accounts — The connected platform accounts within a workspace. Fetch them with List Accounts.
- Posts — Content items scheduled or published to one or more social accounts.
- Media — Images and videos uploaded to storage and attached to posts.
Supported Networks
Outstand supports 11 networks. Use these values as the account's network field: x, linkedin, instagram, facebook, threads, tiktok, youtube, pinterest, google_business, vimeo, bluesky. Connect accounts from your dashboard under Accounts.
Base URL
https://outstand.one
All API routes are prefixed with /api/public/v1/. If you're building against the dedicated API product, the same routes are available at https://api.outstand.one.
Quick Start
1. Get an API key
Sign in to your Outstand dashboard and navigate to API & Integrations. Generate a new API key and copy it — it's only shown once.
2. List your connected accounts
curl https://outstand.one/api/public/v1/accounts \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
3. Create a post
curl -X POST https://outstand.one/api/public/v1/posts \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"type": "now",
"content": "Hello from the Outstand API!",
"accounts": ["acc_id_here"]
}'
Omit type/scheduledAt (or set type: "now") to publish immediately, or set type: "schedule" with a scheduledAt ISO 8601 timestamp to schedule it for later. See Create a Post for the full reference.
