Introduction

Ayrshare's API makes it easy to schedule social media posts, get analytics on the posts and social accounts, manage comments, and more.

What is Ayrshare?

Many thousands of companies of all sizes—from startups to large global companies—use Ayrshare's social media REST APIs to power their platforms, products, and agencies.

Ayrshare gives you the tools to schedule social media posts, get advanced analytics, manage their comments, send and receive direct messages* to X/Twitter, Facebook Pages, LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business), Pinterest, TikTok, and Telegram via a REST .

Each of the REST API endpoints have URLs which refer to different types of resources, such as information or content, which can be accessed and returned in JSON. These resources can have one or more methods that can be performed on them via HTTP, such as GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE. The meanings of GET and DELETE are straightforward, but POST and PUT have specific uses. Although the distinction between the two may be confusing, you generally use POST to create new resources and PUT to update existing resources.

*Messaging API is available for Instagram, Facebook, and X.
