Verdicts

Mixpost API + MCP
One-off $299 licence with unlimited accounts and members, and a perpetual fallback licence. No API or MCP in the free Lite edition.
Before you call either
Blotato
- Call
blotato_list_accountsorGET /v2/users/me/accountsfirst, and fetchpageIdorboardIdbefore posting to a Facebook Page, LinkedIn company Page or Pinterest - Keep the
postSubmissionIdand poll the status untilpublished,scheduledorfailed. It is a receipt, not proof of publication - After a timeout on a create call, list existing posts before sending again, because there is no idempotency key
- Do not generate an API key on a trial account unless the owner accepts the Starter charge
- Keep REST bodies and MCP arguments apart. REST nests
post.contentandpost.target, and the MCP tool takes flat arguments
Mixpost API + MCP
- Call list-workspaces first. Workspace endpoints sit under /api/{workspaceUuid}
- Check MIXPOST_CORE_PATH. It's empty by default from Pro v7 but defaults to mixpost in older versions and Lite
- Create the token as a Viewer-role user when the agent only needs to read
- Use unschedule-post rather than delete-post when a person wants a post pulled back to draft
- Expect HTTP 422 with an errors.limit entry when a Cloud plan limit is hit
