Hootsuite Webhooks & Events

Overview

Hootsuite provides webhook notifications for social stream events when building Hootsuite App Directory integrations. For API-only integrations, you poll for message state changes or implement your own scheduling system with callbacks.

Instructions

Step 1: Poll for Message Status Changes

// Since Hootsuite REST API doesn't push webhooks for message status,
// poll for changes to scheduled messages
async function pollMessageStatus(messageId: string, intervalMs = 30000) {
  const check = async () => {
    const response = await fetch(`https://platform.hootsuite.com/v1/messages/${messageId}`, {
      headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${await getStoredToken()}` },
    });
    const { data } = await response.json();
