The Social Media Hub allows to integrate various social networks into CoreMedia Studio. It provides a separate tab that shows different social network feeds and messages that have been scheduled for publishing.

The Social Media Hub is implemented as a Blueprint extension.

Supported Networks

The Social Media Hub comes with a set of predefined adapter and connector implementations. Native adapters are communicating with the social network directly via their (REST) APIs.

The more common use case is that CoreMedia only defines a stub for a social media network and implements a connector that takes care of pushing the composed messages to this tool.

CoreMedia recommends to implement a SocialHubConnector for a social media tool!

The existing integrations of Twitter and YouTube are just example implementations. The philosophy behind the Social Media Hub is to prepare content for social media publication by pushing content items to social media tools which take care of the actual publication.

The following table shows the currently supported features for the various social networks.
