This skill assists developers in analyzing, planning, and executing upgrades for the Hootsuite SDK and REST API. It is essential for detecting breaking changes, managing deprecated endpoints, and facilitating code migration when Hootsuite releases new API versions (e.g., migrating from v1 to v2). Use this to ensure your social media integration remains compatible with the latest platform standards.

Overview

Hootsuite Upgrade & Migration

Overview

Hootsuite REST API is versioned at /v1/. Monitor the developer changelog for deprecations and new endpoints.

Instructions

Step 1: Check Current API Usage

# List all Hootsuite API calls in your codebase
grep -r "platform.hootsuite.com" src/ --include="*.ts" --include="*.py"

Step 2: Migration Patterns

// If Hootsuite introduces v2 endpoints:
// BEFORE
const response = await fetch('https://platform.hootsuite.com/v1/messages', ...);
// AFTER
const API_VERSION = process.env.HOOTSUITE_API_VERSION || 'v1';
const response = await fetch(`https://platform.hootsuite.com/${API_VERSION}/messages`, ...);

Step 3: Social Network Changes

When Hootsuite adds/removes social network support:

const SUPPORTED_NETWORKS = ['TWITTER', 'FACEBOOK', 'INSTAGRAM', 'LINKEDIN', 'PINTEREST', 'YOUTUBE', 'TIKTOK'] as const;
type SocialNetwork = typeof SUPPORTED_NETWORKS[number];
