# Ayrshare Post To Snapchat

Blocks for posting video content to Snapchat using the Ayrshare social media management API.

## Post To Snapchat

### What it is

Post to Snapchat using Ayrshare

### How it works

This block uses Ayrshare's API to publish video content to Snapchat. Snapchat only supports video content, with three destination options: Stories (24-hour ephemeral content), Saved Stories (persistent Stories), and Spotlight (public discovery feed).

The block authenticates through Ayrshare and uploads video content with optional custom thumbnails. Videos can be scheduled for future publishing and support approval workflows for content review before going live.
