How to post to social media from Perplexity

Perplexity is where a lot of posts start: a question, a few sources, an angle. With Hey Tasky connected, it can turn that answer into drafts or scheduled posts with the sources still in hand.

Capabilities

What Perplexity can do in Hey Tasky

These are the tools Hey Tasky's MCP server gives Perplexity. Ask for a draft when you want to read a post before it goes out; a scheduled post publishes on its own at the time you set.

list_channels
Lists the accounts connected to your workspace, with the ids the agent needs to target them.
list_social_sets
Lists your social sets, such as one brand across X and Threads, so you can say "post this to my text list".
create_post
Saves a draft you review and schedule later in Hey Tasky. Nothing is published.
schedule_post
Schedules a post to one or more channels at an exact time. Hey Tasky publishes it automatically.
get_queue
Reads what is scheduled, published, or failed.
get_post_results
Returns impressions, likes, replies, reposts, and quotes for published posts, where the network reports them.
list_replies
Pulls replies to your posts, sorted into leads, questions, and praise.
get_best_times
Suggests weekday and hour slots from how your posts performed over the last 90 days.
get_account
Confirms which workspace and timezone the agent is working in.
Good to know

Before you rely on it

  • Ask for drafts until you trust the setup. A draft waits in Hey Tasky for you; a scheduled post publishes on its own at the time you set.
  • On Enterprise, an admin first turns on "Allow members to add custom connectors". It is off by default.
  • Perplexity's docs cover connectors in account settings. They don't say whether connectors work in the Comet browser.
