Social Networks Auto Poster {SNAP} – Universal API

Social Networks Auto Poster (SNAP) API is a universal API for the most popular social networks. SNAP API gives you an ability to make a beautifully formatted posts to the most popular social networks and CMS platforms by one simple call.

Universal Application program interface (API) to post to all major social networks

SNAP Pro - Unlimited Accounts

Universal API. Why do we need that?

Each social network and each CMS platform has it’s own API that different from one another. Right now you need to read through tons of specifications and documentation, learn how to make calls and sign or encode your requests for each network. That could take weeks and months of development time. Then when it’s done and it’s still not working, you will need to comb through forums, discussion groups, newsgroups, stackoverflow, etc. trying to figure out what you have done wrong. That will take even more time.
Well, we already done all that. We took every available API, learned how to work with it and as the result we combined then all in one universal package. You just make one simple API call and SNAP will post your message everywhere.

We actually did even more – Unique API for the platforms without built-in API

There are some networks such as Google+, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Flipboard, Reddit, XING, etc.. that don’t have a publicly available API. We created our own APIs for such networks.

Post simple text message to all your configured accounts:
[php] <?php

// First, let’s get settings.
$fileData = file_get_contents(dirname(__FILE__).’/nx-snap-settings.txt’);
$snapOptions = maybe_unserialize($fileData);

if (class_exists(“cl_nxsAutoPostToSN”)) {
// Initialize the class
$nxsAutoPostToSN = new cl_nxsAutoPostToSN($snapOptions);
// Message array contains the post
$message = array(
‘title’=–>’Social Networks Auto Poster (SNAP) API’,
‘text’=>’Social Networks Auto Poster (SNAP) API is
a universal API for the most popular social networks’,
);
// Set message
$nxsAutoPostToSN->setMessage($message);
// Make the post
$ret = $nxsAutoPostToSN->autoPost();
}
?>
[/php]

Post a text message with attached link and specific image ONLY to the first and third Twitter accounts and to the first Facebook account

[php] <?php
// First, let’s get settings.
$fileData = file_get_contents(dirname(__FILE__).’/nx-snap-settings.txt’);
$snapOptions = maybe_unserialize($fileData);
$postOnlyTo = array(‘tw’=–>array(0, 2), ‘fb’=>array(0));

if (class_exists(“cl_nxsAutoPostToSN”)) {
// Initialize the class
$nxsAutoPostToSN = new cl_nxsAutoPostToSN($snapOptions, $postOnlyTo);
// Message array contains the post
$message = array(
‘url’=>’https://www.nextscripts.com/snap-api/’,
‘urlDescr’=>’Social Networks Auto Poster (SNAP) API’,
‘urlTitle’=>’Social Networks Auto Poster API’,
‘imageURL’ => array(
‘large’=>’https://www.nextscripts.com/images/SNAP-Logo_Big_SQ.png’
),
‘title’=>’Social Networks Auto Poster (SNAP) API’,
‘text’=>’Social Networks Auto Poster (SNAP) API is

);
// Set message
$nxsAutoPostToSN->setMessage($message);
// Make the post
$ret = $nxsAutoPostToSN->autoPost();
}
?>
[/php]

You can also just post directly to individual networks. You can do it even without settings array. Here is the example of how to post a simple message to your Google Plus Business Page Stream: (more examples of using it with Google+ only are here: Google+ Automated Posting)
[php]<?php
require_once “nxs-api/nxs-api.php”;
require_once “nxs-api/nxs-http.php”;
require_once “inc/nxs-functions.php”;
$email = ‘YourEmail@gmail.com’;
$pass = ‘YourPassword’;
$pageID = ‘109888164682746252347’;
$msg = ‘Post this to Google Plus!’;
$nt = new nxsAPI_GP();
$loginError = $nt—>connect($email, $pass);
if (!$loginError)
{
$result = $nt -> postGP($msg, ”, $pageID);
}
else echo $loginError;

if (!empty($result) && is_array($result) && !empty($result[‘post_url’]))
echo ‘New Post‘;
else
echo “

".print_r($result, true)."

“;
?>[/php]

This product is an API. Simply API is a “black box” that you provide with the destination, credentials and message. API will post this message to your destination using your credentials. That’s it, nothing more, nothing less.
You can call it as many times as you like with different destination and credentials ad it will post to different accounts or pages. It’s up you if you would like to save login or not and where you do that. It doesn’t read your messages from the DB, it does not schedule posts or re-posts, it does not do any other functionality. API is a library that you can wrap your own code around.
Our WordPress plugin is a very good example of kind of code could be written around the API.

Is it safe to use?

Is it safe to use? Will my social networks accounts be suspended if I autopost? Is it some kind of Blackhat SEO tool? Can I use it for mass postings?

SNAP is not a spam tool. SNAP is not a Blackhat SEO tool. SNAP is not a tool for bypassing any rules of the site where you are autoposting. You need to follow all terms and guidelines of any site or social network you are working with.
None of the networks we support suspend accounts simply based on the fact that you are autoposting there. Do not post spam or content that is not allowed, do not post more posts then allowed, do not abuse the network in any other way and it will be fine.
If you account got suspended for abuse/spam or any other reasons, please contact the social network directly, we can’t explain why that happened.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Don’t just take it from us, let our customers do the talking!

SNAP is just great. Have it installed for over a year and no complaints so far. I use it to post to Facebook, Twitter and Google+. There are are many customization options. The paid version is also well worth the money.

Excellent plugin

NextScripts: Social Networks Auto-Poster puts all other auto-posters to shame, this is a excellent professional product.
To get the full benefits though you do need to buy the pro version otherwise it will get very frustrating knowing what you could do but can’t but it is not overly expensive.

This plugin is a game changer

This is the most useful plugin out there. Not so easy to config, but does it’s job perfectly. So good for SEO and driving traffic.
