/v1/creator/posts:
get:
operationId: get_creator_posts
summary: Get creator posts
description: Returns a paginated posts collection with post IDs, public platform URLs, content formats, post timestamps, thumbnails, and media URLs. Unavailable post fields are null; mediaUrls is empty when no media is available. Explicit campaign/list/participant/task IDs take precedence over corporateId and are checked against all the authenticated account's corporates; corporateId is optional for these explicit scopes. Lists stored social posts using the get_posts reader. Anonymous x402 calls require creatorIds and can read public creator feeds. Campaign/list/participant/task, monitored/scheduled and attention scopes require CIMS Bearer authentication with get_creator_posts permission and authorized campaign/task access; payment never grants this access. corporateId selects only an authenticated account's corporate (required for multi-corporate campaign scopes). REST reads stored data without triggering credit-billed creator refreshes. Lists accept comma-separated or repeated query values.
