Is there an API for developers?
Yes! Flockler provides a Content API that enables developers to fetch social media content and build fully custom layouts tailored to their own design and functionality needs.
⚠️ Please note: The Content API is available only for Premium and Agency plans. If you're on a different plan and would like access, please contact our team to find out what plan is best for your needs.
When should I use the API?
Our API is ideal if you:
- Want full control over the design of your social media wall and prefer not to use the layout templates provided within Flockler.
- Need to integrate posts into a dynamic website or app where layout and behaviour are already managed by your development team.
- Wish to automate or personalise the display of content in ways that go beyond what’s available through our standard layout settings.
- Are building custom dashboards, data visualisations, or internal tools that rely on curated social media content.
If you’re working with designers and developers on a website or platform that requires a unique user experience, using our API gives you the flexibility to bring your own creative vision to life while still taking advantage of Flockler’s aggregation, moderation, and storage capabilities.
What’s available through the API?
With our API, you can:
Retrieve post data
Access individual posts collected from connected social media channels, including their text, images, videos, and metadata (e.g. author, timestamps, source platform).
Retrieve feed data
Fetch information about your feeds, including title, connected channels, and configuration details.
Create new feeds via API (limited support)
Feed creation via API is currently supported only for X (formerly Twitter), Pinterest and RSS feeds. For other channels such as Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn, please create the feed through the Feeds tab in your Flockler app.
🔐 The API is secured with an API key available under Settings → API Keys in your Flockler account.
Where can I find the documentation?
