Authenticate securely using your Surveys API credentials to enable Castmagic to access posting endpoints.
Castmagic uses your API key and location information to securely connect to Surveys API.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts; PUT /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id; DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id; PATCH /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
Trigger: New content in Castmagic triggers a POST to create a post in Surveys API.
Actions: Use POST to add a post; then use PATCH or PUT to update status as needed.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts
Required: locationId, body containing post content, and authorization header.
Trigger: Updated content in Castmagic triggers PUT to update existing post in Surveys API.
Actions: Send updated fields via PUT; ensure post state aligns with Castmagic status.
PUT /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
locationId, id, updated content fields
Trigger: Archival triggers DELETE requests when posts are deprecated in Castmagic.
Actions: Delete via DELETE endpoint and cleanup related data.
DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
locationId, id
No-code setup lets you automate social posting without writing a line of code.
Visual workflow triggers inside Castmagic link to Surveys API endpoints and keep content in sync.
Scale your social campaigns across platforms with simple, repeatable actions.
Key elements include API endpoints, webhooks, authentication, and data mapping for posts.
A specific URL and HTTP method that performs an action in an API.
Methods used to verify identity and grant access to API resources (e.g., API keys, OAuth).
An event-based action that starts a workflow in response to a change.
The text, media, and metadata included in a social post.
Castmagic can auto-create draft posts via Surveys API to streamline content planning.
Automatically push edits from Castmagic to an existing post in Surveys API.
Aggregate performance data from Castmagic and Surveys API to optimize future posts.
Obtain API key and locationId from Surveys API and configure Castmagic to use them.
Connect the endpoints to Castmagic triggers (POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH).
Run tests, verify responses, and enable automation.
This integration connects Castmagic with the Surveys API to streamline social posting and content updates without touching code. You configure credentials once and then use the provided endpoints to create, update, or remove posts from Castmagic. This empowers teams to automate workflows and maintain consistency across platforms. Start by obtaining your API key and locationId from Surveys API, then set up the Castmagic action triggers to call the POST endpoint to publish a new post.
Common flows involve four endpoints: POST creates a new post, PUT updates an existing post, DELETE removes a post, and PATCH can be used for partial updates. Depending on your Castmagic workflow, you may only need POST and PUT for standard publishing, while DELETE handles cleanup. This page outlines how each endpoint maps to Castmagic triggers and actions.
Authentication typically uses an API key paired with a location identifier. You’ll store these securely in Castmagic’s connection settings and include them in the request headers when calling the Surveys API endpoints. If your setup supports OAuth, you can implement token-based authentication as well. Always follow best practices to protect credentials.
If an endpoint returns an error, verify your locationId, post payload, and authentication headers. Check status codes and error messages to determine whether the issue is network, authorization, or data formatting. Use test calls in a sandbox or staging environment before going live, and implement retries with exponential backoff where appropriate.
Yes. The POST endpoint enables you to create new posts, and you can then update or delete them as needed. Scheduling and automation are achieved by mapping Castmagic events to these endpoints and using downstream workflows to control timing and distribution across channels.
No heavy coding is required. This integration is designed for no-code automation within Castmagic and the Surveys API. You’ll configure credentials, map triggers to endpoints, and define payload mappings within the UI. Some basic JSON formatting may be helpful for advanced fields, but it’s not mandatory.
If you need help, consult the Castmagic and Surveys API documentation, reach out to support channels provided in your account, or engage a consultant who specializes in no-code integrations. Community forums and user groups can also be valuable resources for setup tips and troubleshooting.
