Hootsuite

Hootsuite is a social media management platform that lets organizations schedule posts, monitor conversations, run paid campaigns, and analyze performance across LinkedIn, X (Twitter), Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and Pinterest from a single dashboard. The platform serves marketers, agencies, and enterprises with collaboration, approval, and governance workflows. Hootsuite publishes four first-party machine-readable API contracts on platform.hootsuite.com — a 48-operation REST API for messages, media, social profiles, members, teams and SCIM 2.0 provisioning; an Analytics API for organic and paid metrics; the Inbox 2.0 (Sparkcentral) API for CRM, virtual agents, queues and proactive messaging; and the Amplify employee-advocacy API — all authenticated with OAuth 2.0. It also serves an RFC 9727 API catalog, RFC 8414 authorization server metadata and RFC 9728 protected resource metadata.

Hootsuite publishes 20 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Analytics API, Authentication API, Comments API, and 17 more. Tagged areas include Social-Media, Social Media Management, Marketing, Content Scheduling, and Analytics.

The Hootsuite catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Hootsuite’s developer surface includes authentication, changelog, documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, signup flow, pricing, and 41 more developer resources.

Kin Score Kin Score How this is scored →
scored 2026-09-08 · rubric v0.20.0
Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/hootsuite: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

  description: "### Webhook authentication\n\nWhen receiving data from Inbox 2.0, we provide two authentication options. Both\
    \ mechanisms are in place so that you can make sure the request originates from Inbox 2.0.\n\n#### Shared secret\n\nIf\
    \ you choose the shared secret authentication method, a secret will be generated for you. This secret allows you to calculate\
    \ the signature to verify that the call originated from Inbox 2.0. With this mechanism, every single request from Inbox\
    \ 2.0 contains the `X-Hootsuite-Signature` header. Here's an example of a request:\n\n```shell\ncurl -X POST https://my-webhook-url\
    \ \\\n  -H 'content-type : application/json' \\\n  -H 'accept: application/json' \\\n  -H 'X-Hootsuite-Signature: e6f93239a06e46ae9654fc9ad2fb4e1cc4eb213830a0d94e711570c047e43c57'\
    \ \\\n  -d '{\n        \"version\": 2,\n        \"contactProfile\": {\n          \"id\": \"a7a20053-9c54-11eb-a89f-47717a44c639\"\
    \n        },\n        \"contactAttributes\": [\n          {\"attribute\": \"email\", \"value\": \"fj@example.com\"}\n\
    \        ]\n      }'\n```\n\nThe signature is generated using the `HMAC-SHA256` algorithm with the shared secret and the\
    \ request body. \nUse your secret to calculate the signature and compare with the given signature. \nBoth the secret key\
    \ you received and the signature are encoded as hexadecimal strings. \nMake sure to convert the shared secret from its\
    \ hexadecimal representation to its binary format before using it. \nMost languages come with libraries out of the box\
    \ to verify this signature. \nFor example, here's how it looks in JavaScript:\n\n```javascript\nconst crypto = require(\"\
    crypto\");\nconst secret = \"...\"; // do not share!\nconst expectedSignature = request.headers[\"X-Hootsuite-Signature\"\
    ];\nconst actualSignature = crypto\n    .createHmac(\"sha256\", Buffer.from(secret, \"hex\"))\n    .update(request.body,\
    \ \"utf-8\")\n    .digest(\"hex\");\nif (actualSignature !== expectedSignature) {\n    throw new createError.Unauthorized(\"\
    X-Hootsuite-Signature wrong\");\n}\nconsole.log(JSON.parse(request.body).email);\n```\n\n#### OAuth\n\nIf your endpoints\
    \ support OAuth2, you can configure your client credentials, a Token URL, and, optionally, a Scope in Inbox 2.0.\n\nWe\
    \ use the OAuth2 Client Credentials flow to authenticate against your CRM. The Token URL is the endpoint where we can\
    \ authenticate with these credentials and retrieve an access token. To do the actual lookup, write back, or notification\
    \ requests, we use the token in the Authorization Header to authenticate."
