Long arrays and strings are shortened here. Real responses are complete.

## One schema on 21 platforms.

The [response reference](https://socialtap.dev/docs/reference/truthsocial/post/index.md#response) lists every field, its type and when it is `null`. [See the full schema](https://socialtap.dev/resources/post/index.md).

- ### Null means unknown

  A field Truth Social doesn't show is null, never zero or an empty string, so a real zero always means zero.
- ### What it accepts

  The post: its link (truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/117554198887656582), the share link (/@\<name>/posts/\<id>), either with /embed or /history, the ActivityPub link (/users/\<name>/statuses/\<id>), a group post's link (/group/\<slug>/posts/\<id>), /statuses/\<id>, /embed/\<id>, or the bare post ID.
- ### Write one parser

  Truth Social, TikTok, Instagram and 18 more platforms answer in these fields, so the code that reads one reads them all.

- **`platform`string**: Platform ID (tiktok, youtube, …).
- **`id`string**: Platform-native post ID (string; Instagram shortcode, Reddit with its t3_ prefix).
- **`url`string**: Canonical post URL.
- **`type`string**: Normalized content shape. New values may be added; treat unknown values as other.
- **`platform_type`string**: The platform's own product label, lowercase (reel, short, story, live, tweet, …).
- **`title`string**: Headline (YouTube title, Reddit title); null on caption-only platforms.
- **`text`string**: Caption, description or body as plain text.
- **`language`string**: BCP-47 language of text, when the platform states it.

## What teams build with the Truth Social Post API.

- ### Read a Truth from a shared link
- ### Track a post's ReTruths and likes over time
- ### Archive a post's text, media and edits
- ### Follow a ReTruth or quote to its source

## Good to know before you build.

- A post is read by its ID, so a link with another account's name returns the post with its real author and canonical url.
- A ReTruth is its own post (its ID, time, author and counts) with the reposted post's text and media. platform_specific.truthsocial.reblog_of names the reposted post, its author and its counts.
- A post by an account that hides itself from logged-out visitors returns private_or_unavailable.
- Replies to a post and who liked or ReTruthed it are shown only to signed-in Truth Social users, so they are not returned.
- is_pinned is null: Truth Social marks pinned posts only for their author.
