Social Media API: Automate Posting and Analytics to Social Networks like Instagram, TikTok, X/Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Reddit, YouTube, and Telegram
About social-media-api
social-media-api is a Node.js wrapper SDK for Ayrshare's hosted APIs. It is used to send social media posts, retrieve analytics, and add comments on X/Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Google Business Profile, Pinterest, TikTok, Reddit, and Telegram, on behalf of users or clients. The source states that Ayrshare handles setup and maintenance for these networks. Installation is done with npm, and an Ayrshare account and API key are required. The README describes a free plan and a Business Plan for platforms or for managing multiple users, but it does not give pricing details.
The SDK includes a bring-your-own (BYO) credential option for X/Twitter. As of March 31, 2026, X/Twitter operations through Ayrshare require your own X Developer App credentials. The SDK sends the required headers on every X-bound request, not only on posts. The source notes that a missing header returns an error, and that Ayrshare does not store these credentials on its end.

social-media-api FAQ
Do I need my own X/Twitter credentials to use X with this SDK?
As of March 31, 2026, X/Twitter operations through Ayrshare require your own X Developer App credentials. The SDK sends the required headers on each X-bound request once they are set.
How does the README say X credentials should be stored?
The README recommends keeping the X consumer key and secret in environment variables or a secret manager, and says they should not be hardcoded or committed to source control. It also states that Ayrshare does not store these credentials on its end.
How can I check that the BYO headers are configured correctly?
After enabling BYO, a call to analyticsSocial with the twitter platform can verify the headers are wired correctly. The README notes that this call does not create a post.
