Quick Debug Checking

I set up quick links to social media to check whether the posting system succeeded or not. I tried video if possible, if not I used image. You can also find Blotato failed posts here: https://my.blotato.com/failed

Current Issues (last updated April 29, 2025)

• Haven't confirmed, but you -have- to post to a FB Page?
• I believe you can only post to a particular Board in Pinterest
• Some Endpoints can handle longer text, some not
• Some Endpoints can handle videos, some not
• With Facebook, apparently only plain text is accepted
• With LinkedIn, apparently only plain text is accepted
• Haven't found info about ways to access what you have uploaded to Blotato, nor capacity limit, nor how long the assets are stored for -- did find a concurrency limit of using it 10 requests/minute
• Encountered this error with YouTube POST despite not posting that much: "Error: The request cannot be completed because you have exceeded your quota."

Update Post Status

*note I didn't finish attaching all the platforms, left the labor to y'all :)

May Not Be Necessary

I added this because my incoming Titles were over the 100 character limit
