Async Python client for the PostProxy API

Project description

PostProxy Python SDK

Async Python client for the PostProxy API. Fully typed with Pydantic v2 models and async/await via httpx.

Installation

pip install postproxy-sdk

Requires Python 3.10+.

Quick start

import asyncio
from postproxy import PostProxy

async def main():
    async with PostProxy("your-api-key", profile_group_id="pg-abc") as client:
        # List profiles
        profiles = (await client.profiles.list()).data

        # Create a post
        post = await client.posts.create(
            "Hello from PostProxy!",
            profiles=[profiles[0].id],
        )
        print(post.id, post.status)

asyncio.run(main())

Usage

Client

from postproxy import PostProxy

# Basic
client = PostProxy("your-api-key")

# With a default profile group (applied to all requests)
client = PostProxy("your-api-key", profile_group_id="pg-abc")

# With a custom httpx client
import httpx
client = PostProxy("your-api-key", httpx_client=httpx.AsyncClient(timeout=30))

# As a context manager (auto-closes the HTTP client)
async with PostProxy("your-api-key") as client:
    ...

# Manual cleanup
await client.close()

Posts

# List posts (paginated)
page = await client.posts.list(page=0, per_page=10, status="draft")
print(page.total, page.data)

# Filter by platform and schedule
from datetime import datetime
page = await client.posts.list(
    platforms=["instagram", "tiktok"],
    scheduled_after=datetime(2025, 6, 1),
)

# Get a single post
post = await client.posts.get("post-id")

# Create a post

        ThreadChildInput(body="Third with media", media=["https://example.com/img.jpg"]),
    ],
)
for child in post.thread:
    print(child.id, child.body)

# Delete a post
result = await client.posts.delete("post-id")
print(result.deleted)  # True

# Get post stats
result = await client.posts.stats(["post-id-1", "post-id-2"])
for post_id, post_stats in result.data.items():
    for platform in post_stats.platforms:
        for record in platform.records:
            print(record.recorded_at, record.stats)

# Filter stats by platform and date range
from datetime import datetime
result = await client.posts.stats(
    ["post-id"],
    profiles=["instagram", "twitter"],
    from_date="2026-02-01T00:00:00Z",
    to_date="2026-02-24T00:00:00Z",
)

Queues

# List all queues
queues = (await client.queues.list()).data

# Get a queue
queue = await client.queues.get("queue-id")
print(queue.name, queue.timeslots, queue.enabled)

# Get next available slot
next_slot = await client.queues.next_slot("queue-id")
print(next_slot.next_slot)

# Create a queue with timeslots
queue = await client.queues.create(
    "Morning Posts",
    "profile-group-id",
    description="Weekday morning content",
    timezone="America/New_York",
    jitter=10,
    timeslots=[
        {"day": 1, "time": "09:00"},
        {"day": 2, "time": "09:00"},
        {"day": 3, "time": "09:00"},
    ],
)

# Update a queue
queue = await client.queues.update(
    "queue-id",
    jitter=15,
    timeslots=[
        {"day": 6, "time": "10:00"},        # add new timeslot
        {"id": 1, "_destroy": True},         # remove existing timeslot
    ],
)

# Pause/unpause a queue
await client.queues.update("queue-id", enabled=False)

# Delete a queue
result = await client.queues.delete("queue-id")
print(result.deleted)  # True

# Add a post to a queue
post = await client.posts.create(
    "This post will be scheduled by the queue",
    profiles=["profile-id"],
    queue_id="queue-id",
    queue_priority="high",
)

Profiles

# List all profiles
profiles = (await client.profiles.list()).data

# List profiles in a specific group (overrides client default)
profiles = (await client.profiles.list(profile_group_id="pg-other")).data

# Get a single profile
profile = await client.profiles.get("profile-id")
print(profile.name, profile.platform, profile.status)

# Get available placements for a profile
placements = (await client.profiles.placements("profile-id")).data
for p in placements:
    print(p.id, p.name)

# Delete a profile
result = await client.profiles.delete("profile-id")
print(result.success)  # True

Webhooks

# List webhooks
webhooks = (await client.webhooks.list()).data

# Get a webhook
webhook = await client.webhooks.get("wh-id")
print(webhook.url, webhook.events, webhook.enabled)

# Create a webhook
webhook = await client.webhooks.create(
    "https://example.com/webhook",
    events=["post.published", "post.failed"],
    description="My webhook",
)
print(webhook.id, webhook.secret)

# Update a webhook
webhook = await client.webhooks.update(
    "wh-id",
    events=["post.published"],
    enabled=False,
)

# Delete a webhook
result = await client.webhooks.delete("wh-id")

# List deliveries
deliveries = await client.webhooks.deliveries("wh-id", page=0, per_page=10)
for d in deliveries.data:
    print(d.event_type, d.response_status, d.success)

Signature verification

Verify incoming webhook signatures using HMAC-SHA256:

from postproxy import verify_signature

is_valid = verify_signature(
    payload=request.body,                  # raw request body string
    signature_header=request.headers["X-PostProxy-Signature"],  # "t=...,v1=..."
    secret="whsec_...",                    # webhook secret from create response
)

Profile Groups

# List all groups
groups = (await client.profile_groups.list()).data

# Get a single group
group = await client.profile_groups.get("pg-id")
print(group.name, group.profiles_count)

# Create a group
group = await client.profile_groups.create("My New Group")

# Delete a group (must have no profiles)
result = await client.profile_groups.delete("pg-id")
print(result.deleted)  # True

# Initialize a social platform connection
conn = await client.profile_groups.initialize_connection(
    "pg-id",
    platform="instagram",
    redirect_url="https://yourapp.com/callback",
)
print(conn.url)  # Redirect the user to this URL

Error handling

All errors extend PostProxyError, which includes the HTTP status code and raw response body:

from postproxy import (
    PostProxyError,
    AuthenticationError,   # 401
    BadRequestError,       # 400
    NotFoundError,         # 404
    ValidationError,       # 422
)

try:
    await client.posts.get("nonexistent")
except NotFoundError as e:
    print(e.status_code)  # 404
    print(e.response)     # {"error": "Not found"}
except PostProxyError as e:
    print(f"API error {e.status_code}: {e}")

Types

All responses are parsed into Pydantic v2 models. All list methods return a response object with a data field — access items via .data:

profiles = (await client.profiles.list()).data
posts = await client.posts.list()  # also has .total, .page, .per_page

Key types:

Model Fields
Post id, body, status, scheduled_at, created_at, media, thread, platforms, queue_id, queue_priority
Profile id, name, status, platform, profile_group_id, expires_at, post_count
ProfileGroup id, name, profiles_count
Media id, type, url, status
ThreadChild id, body, media
ThreadChildInput body, media
Webhook id, url, events, secret, enabled, description, created_at
WebhookDelivery id, event_id, event_type, response_status, attempt_number, success, attempted_at, created_at
PlatformResult platform, status, params, error, attempted_at, insights
StatsResponse data (dict keyed by post id)
PostStats platforms
PlatformStats profile_id, platform, records
StatsRecord stats (dict), recorded_at
Queue id, name, description, timezone, enabled, jitter, profile_group_id, timeslots, posts_count
Timeslot id, day, time
NextSlotResponse next_slot
ListResponse[T] data
PaginatedResponse[T] total, page, per_page, data

Platform parameter models

Model Platform
FacebookParams format (post, story), first_comment, page_id
InstagramParams format (post, reel, story), first_comment, collaborators, cover_url, audio_name, trial_strategy, thumb_offset
TikTokParams format (video, image), privacy_status, photo_cover_index, auto_add_music, made_with_ai, disable_comment, disable_duet, disable_stitch, brand_content_toggle, brand_organic_toggle
LinkedInParams format (post), organization_id
YouTubeParams format (post), title, privacy_status, cover_url
PinterestParams format (pin), title, board_id, destination_link, cover_url, thumb_offset
ThreadsParams format (post)
TwitterParams format (post)

Wrap them in PlatformParams when passing to posts.create().
