Introduction

Crier is an API and a dashboard for social publishing. You connect a brand’s accounts (or your customers’) once and from then on you publish, schedule, answer comments and messages and measure results on all of them in the same format.

How it is organised

Everything hangs off three objects, the same in the API and the dashboard:

Profile (prf_…): a brand or a customer. It groups their accounts, their queue and their time zone.
Account (acc_…): a social account connected to a profile, for example Acme’s Instagram.
Post (pst_…): text with images or videos that goes out on one or several accounts, each with its own options.

What you do in the dashboard shows in the API and the other way round: if your team schedules a post from the dashboard, your integration gets the webhook just like for its own. Details in Concepts.
