Schedule Posts to Facebook Groups or Profiles

Use ReachOwl post schedulers to publish content to Facebook groups or Facebook profile timelines on an interval or calendar schedule.

Use ReachOwl post schedulers to automatically publish content to Facebook groups or to one or more Facebook profiles.

The Post Scheduler queues content for Facebook groups or Facebook profiles. Pick one destination mode per scheduler. This guide covers groups mode, profile mode, pausing, deleting queue rows, and cloning.

Destination modes

Mode	API fields	Publishes to
Groups	post_to_profile: false, group_urls (or group_ids), executor_id	Selected Facebook groups
Profile	post_to_profile: true, profile_account_ids	Timelines of the selected Facebook accounts

Groups mode

1. Get group URLs

curl -X GET "https://reachowl.com/api/v1/groups" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"

Copy the group_url values you want to target.

2. Get an executor ID

curl -X GET "https://reachowl.com/api/v1/app-states" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"

Pick an active Facebook app-state id for executor_id.

3. Create the scheduler

curl -X POST "https://reachowl.com/api/v1/post-scheduler" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Weekly Tips",
    "executor_id": 101,
    "team_id": 3,
    "post_to_profile": false,
    "group_urls": [
      "https://facebook.com/groups/digimarketpro",
      "https://facebook.com/groups/startupfounders"
    ],
    "schedule_type": "interval",
    "interval": 20,
    "posts": [
      {"text": "Here is todays tip for growing your audience!"}
    ]
  }'

Profile mode

1. List Facebook accounts

curl -X GET "https://reachowl.com/api/v1/app-states" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"

Collect one or more Facebook app-state id values for profile_account_ids.

2. Create a profile scheduler

curl -X POST "https://reachowl.com/api/v1/post-scheduler" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Profile Updates",
    "team_id": 3,
    "post_to_profile": true,
    "profile_account_ids": [101, 102],
    "schedule_type": "interval",
    "interval": 60,
    "posts": [
      {"text": "Hello from my Facebook profile!"}
    ]
  }'

The API sets executor_id to the first profile account. Queue rows use destination_type: "profile".

Pause or resume

curl -X PATCH "https://reachowl.com/api/v1/post-scheduler/88" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"status": 0}'

Use status: 1 to resume.

Delete queue rows

curl -X PATCH "https://reachowl.com/api/v1/post-scheduler/88" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "delete_queue_ids": [201, 202]
  }'

Clone a scheduler

curl -X POST "https://reachowl.com/api/v1/post-scheduler" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Weekly Tips - Copy",
    "clone_from": 88,
    "team_id": 3
  }'

Clones keep the original destination mode (post_to_profile), groups, and posts.

Notes

• schedule_type is interval (minutes) or calendar (fixed dates).
• Prefer group_urls over internal group_ids for groups mode.
• List profile schedulers with GET /api/v1/post-scheduler?post_to_profile=1.
