 Description   

We should investigate integrating Buffer.com with Magnolia to bring back the social media publishing capabilities that were once available in our Magnolia platform.

Magnolia previously had social media publishing capabilities that allowed us to manage and publish content on various social media platforms like fb and twitter.

However, due to some technical issues (constantly changing APIs), we had to discontinue this feature 

Buffer.com is a popular social media management tool that allows us to schedule and publish content across various social media platforms, including Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn via API

Please have a look at: https://buffer.com/developers/api/updates for details on the API and estimations / feasibility

Hi tmiyar from Jan:

Hello cweber

     The integration won't be possible with Buffer.com due to a deprecated API: 

 

 

Getting Started
All of the Buffer API endpoints require authentication. To get an access_token you must first have a regstered application. Please note: Buffer no longer supports the creation of new developer apps.
A good OAuth library will handle most of these steps for you. You should only need to supply a client ID and secret.

 

If I'm not wrong it's not supported anymore. I'll try with hootsuite.com

 

Regards,

     Alberto
