Concrete capability record
Data, retrieval, actions, identity, and operating limits
A field-by-field summary of what the reviewed first-party references actually support. Publisher update dates and BYO-UI review dates are shown separately below.
02 · Data you can retrieve
Later's product reads connected profile and post data for scheduling, publishing state, media management, analytics, Link in Bio, and supported engagement features; no public customer-facing API read scope was verified.
03 · Actions and write paths
Later's product schedules and publishes approved content through connected social-network APIs and supports selected comment replies, but no public customer-facing API write scope was verified.
04 · Authentication and permissions
Users connect each social profile through the network's authorization flow, granting Later platform-specific access tokens and permissions; profile connections can expire and require reauthorization.
05 · Monitoring, approval, and recovery
Separate drafting from publishing; preserve network-specific media rules, rights, account ownership, approvals, and failure status.
06 · Limits and caveats
No Later-published provider MCP or current public customer-facing developer API was verified. Product publishing and analytics capabilities vary by network, profile type, granted permissions, plan, and connection state.
