# Get Social Post

> Track the per-location status of a social post created via the API.

```
get_social_post
```

## Description

Tracks the status of a social post created with [`create_social_post`](/mcp/tools/social/create-social-post). Use it to check whether a scheduled or published post actually went out, see per-location status, and get the live post URL or the failure reason.

## Parameters

| Parameter       | Type   | Required | Default | Description                                                                          |
| --------------- | ------ | -------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `accountNumber` | string | Yes      | —       | Account number the post was made under                                               |
| `trackingId`    | string | Yes      | —       | Tracking ID returned by [`create_social_post`](/mcp/tools/social/create-social-post) |

## Example Usage

## Response Fields

| Field                | Description                                                                    |
| -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `trackingId`         | The post's tracking ID                                                         |
| `accountNumber`      | Account the post belongs to                                                    |
| `socialSite`         | Channel: `INSTAGRAM`, `FACEBOOK`, `GOOGLEMYBUSINESS`, `LINKEDIN`, or `TWITTER` |
| `subBusinessNumbers` | Location IDs the post targeted                                                 |
| `socialPostDetails`  | One entry per location — see below                                             |

Each `socialPostDetails` entry contains `locationName`, `locationNumber`, a `status` object (`status` is one of `POST_SCHEDULED`, `POST_SUCCEEDED`, `POST_PROCESSING`, `POST_FAILED`, `REJECTED_BY_APPROVER`, plus a `failureReason` when failed), `publishedTimestamp` (Unix ms), and — when published — `socialSitePostId` and `socialSitePostUrl`.

## Notes

* `trackingId` comes from the response of [`create_social_post`](/mcp/tools/social/create-social-post). It is user-supplied or taken from a prior create call — it cannot be resolved from another tool.
