Overview#
The Hootsuite API offers a variety of endpoints to automate social media management tasks such as scheduling posts, managing social content, and analyzing social media performance. By leveraging Pipedream, you can create serverless workflows to interact with the Hootsuite API; you can schedule posts at optimal times, aggregate metrics for reporting, or even respond to social media activity in real-time. Pipedream's platform allows the seamless integration of the Hootsuite API with hundreds of other apps to streamline social media workflows, monitor brand presence, and engage with audiences effectively.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
hootsuite: {
type: "app",
app: "hootsuite",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://platform.hootsuite.com/v1/me`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.hootsuite.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,

Example Use Cases#
Automated Social Media Posting: Schedule and post content to multiple social media platforms. Use Pipedream's cron jobs to trigger posts at specific times, ensuring your content hits the right audience at the right time without manual intervention.
Social Media Analytics Dashboard: Pull analytics data from Hootsuite and send it to a Google Sheets spreadsheet using Pipedream. Automate weekly or monthly reports, giving you insights into engagement rates, follower growth, and content performance without manually compiling data.
Real-Time Social Media Monitoring and Response: Set up a workflow that listens for specific keywords or brand mentions on social media via Hootsuite and automatically responds or notifies your team in Slack. This encourages timely engagement and helps maintain brand reputation by staying on top of social interactions.

Authentication#
Hootsuite uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Hootsuite account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Hootsuite and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Hootsuite API.
Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
