/ Help / Custom back-end
Linking a custom back-end means that instead of a third-party network like Facebook or Twitter Contempas will make a request to your own back-end service. It will be a POST request with payload describing the content of the post.
Let's say that we have selected the following content items: When the scheduled post happens Contempas will query your endpoint with:
POST[ { "type": "FILE", "contentType": "video/quicktime", "value": "<url to the file>" }, { "type": "FILE", "contentType": "image/jpeg", "value": "<url to the file>" }, { "type": "FILE", "contentType": "image/jpeg", "value": "<url to the file>" }, { "type": "TEXT", "contentType": "", "value": "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur ..." } ]
The post is considered successful if the response status code is 200.
