# Hogyan működik a Posty

A hat fogalom, amire minden más épül: munkaterület, csatorna, bejegyzés, csoport, ütemezés és közzététel.

## The six concepts

Workspace

A separate calendar with its own channels, media library, posts and team. Nothing is shared between workspaces.

Channel

A connected social account, page, or profile. You can have more than one channel from the same platform.

Post

Something you write that goes out to one or more channels. One item on the calendar, even if it goes to four places.

Group

The identifier that ties together a post going out to several channels. You use it to delete or edit all of them at once.

Client group

Labelling channels with a client or brand name, inside one workspace. For filtering, not for separation.

Set

A saved starting point: a channel selection and text you start a new post from.

## Workspace

The workspace is the largest unit. Everything you see in Posty belongs to exactly one workspace: the channels, the calendar, the media library, analytics, team members, and API keys.

You switch between them in the top-left corner. Switching is a full change: you get a different calendar, different channels, and a different media library.

Workspace or client group

If you work as an agency for several clients, you have two options. A **client group** is a label inside one workspace: shared calendar, shared media library, a filterable view. A **separate workspace** is real separation: a separate calendar, a separate media library, a separate team. You can add client groups later. Splitting into workspaces, though, means reconnecting the channels, so it is worth deciding this at the start. Details are on the [Team and workspaces](https://posty.hu/en/docs/settings/team) page.

## Channel

A channel is a connected social account. Connecting goes through the platform's own consent flow, and we receive an access token, not your password.

The token can expire or be revoked, so the channel's status can change. The four states are described on the [Managing channels](https://posty.hu/en/docs/channels/manage) page.

## Post and group

When you select four channels in the editor, you write one post, not four. We publish four times, but the calendar shows one item, and a `group` identifier ties them together.

Deleting applies to the whole group

If you delete it on the calendar, the scheduled post disappears from all four channels. From the API, the same difference is between `DELETE /posts/:id` (one channel) and `DELETE /posts/group/:group` (the whole post).

## The life of a post

| Status | How it gets here | What happens to it |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Draft | You save it as a draft, or you move it back from Scheduled. | Nothing. It does not go out, even if it has a date and time. |
| Scheduled | You put it on the calendar with a future date and time. | We try to publish it at the minute you set. |
| Published | The platform accepted the post. | Stats start accumulating from this point. You can no longer take it back from Posty. |
| Error | The platform rejected it, or the channel was unavailable. | The error message is on the post. After you fix it, you can schedule it again. |

## Four interfaces, one calendar

You reach the same calendar four ways, and all four use the same permissions and limits:

Web interface

The one you're using now.

Public REST API

From your own code. See the [API overview](https://posty.hu/en/docs/api).

Command-line tool

From the terminal and your scripts. See the [CLI intro](https://posty.hu/en/docs/cli).

MCP server

From an AI agent. See the [MCP intro](https://posty.hu/en/docs/mcp).

Anything you can do on one, you can do on the others, with a single exception: only a person can connect a channel, because the platform asks for consent.
