GETTING STARTED WITH THE SOCIAL STUDIO API
CHAPTER 1 Introducing Social Studio REST API
Available in: All editions.
In this chapter ...
The Social Studio API is a REST-ful web service for retrieving, analyzing, and modifying social media data
contained in your Social Studio Account.
•Enable API
Applications for your
Organization Clients may use the Social Studio API to extend the functionality of the Social Studio. For example: extract
post data & insights directly from your Social Accounts and Topic Profiles, access post metadata such as
post tags and source tags, and manage the setup and configuration within your Social Studio Organization.
•Authentication
The API may be used to integrate with any internal system, CRM, or Business Intelligence tool. Clients
may use it to create custom internal reporting, to integrate with intranets, and to quickly disseminate
information throughout the organization. Other uses include creating custom reports for clients, enhancing
the value of client applications and services, or to drive web and mobile applications.
•RESTful API using HTTP verbs
•Authenticate using OAuth 2.0
•HTTPS only
•API requests and responses serialized as JSON
•Provides access to Social Studio functionality
1
Enable API Applications for your Organization
Before you utilize the Social Studio REST API, you must enable and register your API application:
This step ensures your organization can accept API calls.
1. Log in as a super user or organization administrator to
https://socialstudio.radian6.com/admin#organizationSettings.
2. Navigate to the Admin section and click on Organization Settings.
3. Select the Developers can create API Applications checkbox under the API Applications heading.
2
Enable API Applications for your OrganizationIntroducing Social Studio REST API
Register an API Application in Social Studio
This step creates a new application for use with Social Studio and provides an application key and secret for use in retrieving an OAuth
access token.
1. Navigate to the Admin section in Social Studio.
2. Click on the API Applications section.
3. Click Add New.
4. Review the Marketing Cloud Social API Usage Agreement and click I Accept the Terms and Conditions.
3
Enable API Applications for your OrganizationIntroducing Social Studio REST API
5. Enter the details for your new API application: Name Application Description Callback URL
4
Enable API Applications for your OrganizationIntroducing Social Studio REST API
6. Click Save.
7. To view the details of your application, find it in the applications list and click on it. A dialog will appear on the left side of your screen
that contains all of your application details.
Authentication
You can receive the client key and secret issued for the application via self-serve by a Social Studio super user or an administration by
logging into socialstudio.radian6.com/admin. When creating the credentials for the application, you must specify the redirect URL for
the application. The authentication server will redirect the user to this URL with an authorization code.
Supported Flows
Social Studio currently supports the following OAuth flows:
5
AuthenticationIntroducing Social Studio REST API
•Authorization (web server flow)
•Implicit grant (client-side applications)
•Resource owner password-based grant (trusted applications)
Authorization Code
Requesting an Access Token (Resource Owner Password)
Make Requests
Refresh the Access Token
Revoking an Access Token
Authorization Code
This authentication method redirects the user to an authorization page, which permits the user to grant authorization to the application
to act. The page displays a login prompt with the message Please log in to grant access to the application. Once the user logs in and grants
access, the page will redirect the user to the application redirect URL as specified when generating their client credentials.
Authorization URL: https://api.socialstudio.radian6.com/login/oauth/authorize
Request
ValueQuery String Parameter

Either one of the following two elements: code - Server-side
applications use this web service flow. After authentication, the
response_type
browser redirects back to the application redirect URL with an
authorization code on the query string used to request a refreshable
access token. token - Client-side applications use this implicit
(client-credentials) flow. This process does not store an access
token. Instead, the call returns the token as part of the URL
fragment.
A unique value included in the redirect call that maintains the state
between the request and the response

redirect_uri
Response
The call returns the repsonse of this endpoint to the client application be redirecting back to their returned URL with certain query string
parameters set.
6
Authorization CodeIntroducing Social Studio REST API
Web Server Flow
After the user successfully logs in, the call redirects them to the following URL:
{redirectUri}?code={authorizationCode}&scope=OOB&state={state}
*redirectUri* - the call specifies this value when creating the client credentials.
*authorizationCode* - the application can handle the authorizationCode as outlined in the
section *Requesting an Access Token*.
*state* - use thestate value you specified in your requests.
*scope* - at present, we do not support specific scopes, so use the default value of OOB
Requesting an Access Token (Resource Owner Password)
This flow includes implied authorization because the resource owner conducts the call. Use this flow only for highly trusted clients, as
the process exposes the user password to the client. You only need to send the password once to receive a refresh token. Store the
refresh token for further requests.

Alternatively, you can supply the access token using the header (188+):
Authorization: Bearer {access_token}
cURL Example
curl -X GET -H "access_token: your_access_token" -H "Cache-Control: no-cache"
'https://api.socialstudio.radian6.com/v3/users/me'
Refresh the Access Token
The Social Studio API will respond with the following message after token expiration, revocation, or any other issue leading to an invalid
token:
HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized
Date: Wed, 04 Nov 2015 18:07:59 GMT
Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1
Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8
Content-Length: 279
{
"error": {
"message": "Validation error",

"errorCode": "MC-Unknown",
"requestId":"9a135ab7-9e56-49d7-8c1d-7805f2df6ee1"
},
"meta": null
}
An application can wait for this error message and then attempt to refresh the token, or it can use the expires_in time that comes with
the access token to determine when the token needs to be refreshed. The token can be refreshed at any time.
The end point for refreshing an access token is the same as that for requesting an access token, but uses slightly different parameters.

Refresh the Access TokenIntroducing Social Studio REST API
In this case, the grant_type is refresh_token and instead of supplying a code the parameter is refresh_token.
Response
If the refresh token has been revoked by the user or has become invalid for some other reason, then the refresh call will fail with the
following error:
HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
Date: Wed, 04 Nov 2015 18:12:16 GMT

GENERAL DEVELOPER INFO
CHAPTER 2 Rate Limiting
The Social Studio API will subject users who make too many calls too quickly to rate limiting. This measure
helps to ensure a single misbehaving application cannot produce excessive load and cause a degradation
in performance for other applications.
In this chapter ...
•Response Headers
Rate limiting breaks calls to the API into two types:
Relatively expensive calls that need to scan large indexes can make 700 requests per hour per user. GET
/v3/posts. *Less expensive API calls can make 900 requests per hour per user.
11
Response Headers
The Social Studio API sends additional headers containing rate limit information with each response. These headers help track application
usage and quotas.
*X-RateLimit-Limit* - limit for the current endpoint type
*X-RateLimit-Remaining* - number of requests remaining for the current endpoint type
in the current timeframe
*X-RateLimit-Reset* - number of seconds until the limit period expires and the API
resets the limit to the number found in the *X-RateLimit-Limit* header
12
Response HeadersRate Limiting
CHAPTER 3 Media Retrieval
To retrieve images and video from the Social Studio API a JSON Web Token must be created and passed
along with the request.
JSON Web Tokens consist of three parts separated by a dot (.), which are the Header, Payload, and
Signature.
Header
The header is a URL-safe Base64 encoding describing the hashing algorithm. In the case of Social Studio
it is:
{
"alg": "HS256",
"typ": "JWT"
}
Payload
The payload contains the claims, whare are also URL-safe Base64 encoded.
{
"request": {
"userId": "2999",
"clientId": "1"
},
"iat": 1458136904,
"client_id": "9283009918837749",
"aud": "http://www.radian6.com",
"sub": "layer7",
"exp": 1489672904
}
{
*userId* - your Social Studio user id
*clientId* - your Social Studio organization id, this can
be found under Organization Settings within Social Studio.
13
*iat* - date in epoch seconds the JWT was generated
*client_id* - client of the application that was created
within Social Studio
*exp* - expiration time, in epoch seconds.
Signature
To create the signature, combine the encoded header, encoded payload, your access token, the algorithm
in the header and sign that.
HMACSHA256(
base64URLEncode(header)+"."+
base64URLEncode(payload),
access_token)
Put it all together
The output is three Base64 encoded strings separated by dots: header.payload.signature. When you
make a request that includes images or video specify the JWT as a token query parameter as part of the
URL.
GET /v1/clips/{id}?token="header.payload.signature"

CHAPTER 13 Approval Rules
Approval rules gate actions (such as publishing a post) until certain individuals provide approval. Approval
rules are made up of three end-points:
1. /v1/approvalflows
In this chapter ...
•Retrieve Approval
Rules
•Retrieve Approval
Rule 2. /v1/approvalprerequisites
3. /v1/approvalprocedures
•Create Approval Rule
Sample Workflow
Approval rules define the name and priority of the rule. Prioritizing rules allows for multi-step approvals.
For example, your rule could require that you first get approval from the Creative Team (rule 1), then get
approval from the Legal OR from the Director of Social (rule 2).
•Update Approval

•Delete Approval Rule
•Retrieve Approval
Rule Criteria
•Update Approval
Rule Criteria Define the criteria to trigger the rule within approval prerequisites (such as a user or social account in
the workspace).
•Retrieve Approvers
for a Rule Finally, approval pocedures define the approvers of the rule.
•Update Approvers
for a Rule Create a Rule
Let’s start by creating a rule, including criteria (prerequisites) and approvers (procedures).
Create an approval rule cURL Example
curl -X POST -H "access_token: a78cabb9-c00e-4f98-9127-248003a7d9a1"
-H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
"name": "My Approval Rule",

}' 'https://api.socialstudio.radian6.com/v1/approvalflows'
Create the criteria that triggers the rule cURL Example
curl -X PUT -H "access_token: a78cabb9-c00e-4f98-9127-248003a7d9a1"
-d '{
"items": [

CHAPTER 15 Create Topic Profile and Retrieving Posts with
Keyword Groups
Create Topic Profile
Use the topic profile to define the social data that interests you based on a set of parameters consisting
of keywords, sources, languages, regions and media types. For example, you could look for a series of
English keywords in Twitter posts originating in the United Kingdom.
In this chapter ...
•Retrieve Topic Profiles
•Retrieve Topic Profile
•Create Topic Profile
•Update Topic Profile
First, define the topic profile using the following route:
POST /v3/topics
•Delete Topic Profile
•Update Keyword
Groups in a Topic
Profile cURL Example
curl -X POST -H 'access_token: your_access_token" -H "Content-Type:
application/json" -d '{
•Delete Keyword
Groups in a Topic
Profile
•Update Source Filters
in a Topic Profile "title" : "test12345",
"languages" : [ "1" ],
•Activate a Topic
Profile "mediaTypes" : [ {"id" : "5" }, { "id" : "1" }, { "id" : "10" } ]
}' https://api.socialstudio.radian6.com/v3/topics
Create Keyword Group
Next, create a keyword group that contains the keywords to be monitored. Keywords allow you to define
specific terms which should match post content and define which content flows to the topic profile.
Social Studio organizes keywords into various keyword groups using the following route:
POST /v3/keywordGroups
cURL Example
curl -X POST -H "access_token: your_access_token" -H "Content-Type:
application/json" -d '{
"title" : "API Test",
"type" : 2,
"active" : true,
"contains" : [[{"tokenType" : 1, "value" : "Coca Cola", "meta" :
138
"2" }]]
}' https://api.socialstudio.radian6.com/v3/keywordGroups
Assign Keyword Group to Topic Profile
After creating a topic profile and a keyword group, you can link them both together using the following
API endpoint:
PUT /v3/topics{id}/keywordGroups
cURL Example
curl -X PUT -H "access_token: your_access_token" -H "Content-Type:
application/json" -d '[
{
"id" : "405492"
}]'
https://api.socialstudio.radian6.com/v3/topics/273382/keywordGroups
Retrieving Posts
Once you create the previous calls, you can retireve matching posts:
GET /v3/posts?topics={id}
cURL Example
curl -X GET -H "access_token: your_access_token" -H "Content-Type:
application/json"
https://api.socialstudio.radian6.com/v3/posts?topics=273382
Each client can use a limited amount of active topic profiles. Any call that causes the client to exceed
the limit returns a 400 error.

CHAPTER 21 Posts
Use the Post endpoint to retrieve the social post content associated with a predefined topic profile. The
Social Studio API allows an export of up to 1000 posts per topic profile every 30 seconds (equaling 2.8
million posts in 24 hours).
