Verdicts
OneUp API + MCP
API and MCP on every plan from $25 a month ($15 billed yearly). API key in the query string on REST and in the MCP URL, with no scopes.
Postiz API + MCP
AGPL-3.0 and self-hostable with the API and MCP included, 34 platforms. Create-post capped at 90 requests an hour on every Cloud plan.
Before you call either
OneUp API + MCP
- Call listcategory, then listcategoryaccount, then schedule. Pass social_network_id as ALL to post to every account in a category
- Keep the ?apiKey= URLs out of logs and shared configs, and regenerate the key on the API Access page if one leaks
- Set requireApproval or isDraftPost true when a person should review before anything goes out
- Page through lists with start, 50 posts at a time
- Give dates as YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM with no timezone field, so confirm the account timezone first
Postiz API + MCP
- Send the key as the
Authorizationheader with noBearerprefix on REST calls - Batch several posts into one create request to stay under 90 an hour
- Call integrationSchema (Get Settings) for a channel before scheduling, since each network has its own settings
- Use the Bearer header on /mcp rather than /mcp/{key} so the key stays out of logs
- Read output.errors on a failed schedule call and retry with the corrected fields
