UmbSocial Documentation
UmbSocial adds social media scheduling to Umbraco 17. You write a post once, choose the channels it goes to (LinkedIn, X, Facebook, Instagram, Bluesky, Mastodon), and put it in the queue, at a set time, or out now.
Social decides what goes out and when. How a post reaches a network is an Umbraco Automate automation. Each network is an Automate provider package (for example UmbHost.Automate.LinkedIn), and each channel publishes through an ordinary automation that you can open and extend on the Automate canvas.
Social stores no passwords or tokens. Account credentials live in Automate connections.
The free edition is free to use and closed source. It allows 3 channels and shows 90 days of published history. Paid editions (Pro and Agency) are available from UmbHost. See Editions and licensing.
Who These Docs Are For
Section titled “Who These Docs Are For”The documentation is aimed at developers who know Umbraco and are comfortable with configuration files and dependency injection. Editors who write posts will find the Using Social pages useful too.
The best place to start is the Getting Started section, which covers installation and the initial setup.
Extending UmbSocial
Section titled “Extending UmbSocial”UmbSocial is built to be extended without changing it:
- Notifications let you change or refuse posts and channels before they are saved, change what is sent to a network, and hear about every outcome.
- Custom networks let you add a network Social doesn’t ship, through any Automate provider.
- Replacing services covers the services you can swap, such as how image URLs are built.
- Automate integration explains the trigger and action Social adds to Automate, and how to add steps to a channel’s automation safely.
