The Social Media API Podcast by Ayrshare

Recapping the Ayrshare June 2025 Release

Ayrshare co-founders Geoff and Boris run through the new features at Ayrshare for the past month.
Instagram Login (coming soon). Enable or disable Instagram Login on the social linking page. Instagram Login will be enabled by default in the coming weeks. If you require the advanced features listed including hashtag search, collaborations, location tagging, or brand data, you must manually disable this option to use Facebook Page authentication instead. We recommend most clients use the new direct Instagram Login since it is a simpler work flow and does not require a Facebook Page.
Introducing Snapchat. Ayrshare now supports Snapchat. The Snapchat API enables direct publishing of content to both Stories and Spotlight, and getting analytics and history. Stories are temporary posts that disappear after 24 hours, while Spotlight posts are permanent and can help creators and businesses reach a wider audience.
MCP Server. Connect the Ayrshare API Docs MCP server with your AI agent. By connecting the Ayrshare API documentation MCP server to your AI development tools like Cursor or Claude Desktop, you can give your AI agent direct access to Ayrshare’s documentation.
Copy a Post. Copy an existing post to another platform. This new endpoint allows you to reuse successful posts across different platforms or with different configurations.
Developer Dashboard. Two new improvements in the posting flow in the developer dashboard. In addition to uploading media files, you can now also use URLs to post your media. And you can now view the JSON used to publish your post which helps verify the correctness of your JSON.
User Management. The User endpoint now returns the real-time state of connected social networks, automatically updating whenever users connect or disconnect their social media accounts.
YouTube. Publishing a video on YouTube now allows disclosure of realistic Altered or Synthetic (A/S) content by setting the containsSyntheticMedia parameter. View docs.
