To start, generate an API key for the Surveys API and grant it the appropriate scope to manage social posts. Keep your credentials secure and rotate them regularly.
Authorize Hive to access your Surveys API account, then configure the connection in your app to allow automated posting and management of content.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts — Create a new social post using survey content; PUT /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — Update an existing post; DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — Remove a post; PATCH /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id — Partially update a post. Note: Endpoint5–Endpoint53 are not shown in this page context but may be used in extended workflows.
Trigger: When a new survey response is received, automatically publish a new social post in Hive.
Actions: POST to /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts with content assembled from the survey fields; optionally set a schedule.
POST /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts
locationId, content, mediaUrl, scheduledTime, platform
Trigger: When relevant survey fields are updated, refresh the corresponding post.
Actions: PUT /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id or PATCH /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id to update content.
PUT /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
locationId, id, content
Trigger: A survey option is retired or a post is no longer relevant.
DELETE /social-media-posting/:locationId/posts/:id
locationId, id
Automate social posting from survey data without writing code.
Use a visual app connector to map survey fields to post content and scheduling.
Centralize analytics by tracking post performance in one place.
This glossary defines common elements and processes used when integrating Surveys API with Hive, including endpoints, authentication, and data mapping.
A defined URL and HTTP method used to interact with a service.
The process of verifying identity to access API resources securely.
A callback URL that receives real-time event notifications.
An identifier for a specific business location or social account used in your workflows.
Turn new survey responses into compelling social posts with templates and dynamic fields.
Automatically refresh posts when survey data indicates progress or changes.
Publish a weekly digest of survey highlights as a single post.
In your GHL dashboard, generate an API key with the socialplanner/post.write scope and note the key.
In Hive, add a new integration and paste your API credentials, then test the connection.
Create a test post to confirm connectivity and ensure data maps correctly.
You do not need to be a coding expert to set this up. The no-code app connector provides a visual mapping of survey fields to post content. Start with a basic workflow and expand as you get comfortable.
You can post text, images, and links generated from survey responses. Rich media and scheduling options help tailor each post to your audience.
Yes. Schedule posts in advance by selecting a time window during the post creation or update steps. You can also set recurring patterns if supported.
Typically you’ll need read and write permissions for social posting. Always follow least-privilege guidelines and rotate credentials regularly.
You can revoke access from your GHL or Hive account settings. Rotate API keys and reauthorize as needed.
Rate limits depend on your plan. If you hit a limit, implement retries with backoff and consider batching posts.
A sandbox or test mode is available in most setups. Use test data to validate mappings and workflows before going live.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
