Platforms
Compare the social operations, content formats, permissions, and evidence available through each direct platform adapter.
Use this page to choose a platform adapter before you read its setup guide. The matrix describes the normalized surface currently implemented in Social SDK. Platform-native parity operations are listed in the capability matrix and each platform guide; they do not certify credentials, app review, account eligibility, or a successful live request.
| Platform | Publish | Read | Search | Analytics |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| X | Text, images | Posts, feeds, graph where declared | Recent posts | Post metrics |
| Threads | Text, images, video, carousels | Posts, feeds, profiles where declared | Declared search | Post and lifetime metrics |
| Bluesky | Text, images, video | Posts, feeds, graph where declared | Declared search | Post and account |
| YouTube | Video | Videos, channels | Posts | Post, account, reports |
| TikTok | Images, video, carousels | Posts, feeds | Not exposed | Post and account |
| Images, video, carousels | Posts, feeds, profiles where declared | Not exposed | Post and account | |
| Text, images, multi-image, video, documents | Posts, feeds | Not exposed | Post and account |
“Not exposed” means the normalized direct adapter does not expose that operation. “Where declared” means the selected adapter implements the corresponding graph or profile capability; it is not a promise that every account or platform supports every method. Native modules add typed platform-specific operations such as video uploads, reposts, profiles, captions, playlists, drafts, and approval-gated features; see the capability matrix for their exact status. Content limits, permissions, account rules, upload behavior, API versions, and processing states remain platform-specific; open the platform guide for those details. Managed backends may expose additional operations for the same platform through their own route.
The normalized table is intentionally compact. Search, where declared, returns provider-shaped post objects with provider pagination and retention limits; it is not a cross-platform archive. For example, X native operations include polls, bookmarks, follows, reposts, quotes, deletion, and direct-message reads; YouTube native operations include thumbnails, captions, playlists, video updates/deletion, Analytics API reports, and live broadcasts. The platform pages document the equivalent native surface for every direct adapter.
