Posts & Fields

Every FeedSpring feed is made up of posts and fields.

Understanding this structure is the key to building layouts with FeedSpring.

What is a post?

A post is a single item inside a feed.

Depending on the source, this could be:

• An Instagram post

• A Google review

• A TikTok video

• A Dribbble shot

• A YouTube video

Each feed contains multiple posts.

What is a field?

A field is a piece of data inside a post.

For example:

• An image

• A caption or description

• A link

• A timestamp

• A rating

Fields are what you use to display content.

Example

Here is a simplified example of a post:

{
  "img": "image-url.jpg",
  "caption": "New product launch",
  "link": "https://...",
  "timestamp": "2026-01-01T12:00:00Z"
}

Each key is a field.

Fields are different for each feed

Each platform provides different data.

Profile fields vs post fields

Feeds also include profile-level data.

Profile fields

These describe the account or source:

• Name

• Avatar

• Bio

• Follower count

Post fields

These describe individual items:

• Image or media

• Text content

• Timestamp

• Engagement data

Both can be used when building layouts.

How fields are used

No matter how you use FeedSpring:

• Attributes

• React components

• API

You are always working with the same fields.

Only the syntax changes.

Why this matters

Once you understand posts and fields:

• You can build any layout

• You can switch between delivery methods

• You can combine feeds across platforms

This is the core of how FeedSpring works.

Summary

• A feed contains posts

• Each post contains fields

• Fields are the data you display

• Fields vary by platform

• The structure is always the same
