# Get Artist Posts

Source: https://recoupable.dev/docs/api-reference/posts/get

Retrieve all social media posts from an artist across all platforms. This endpoint aggregates posts from all connected social media profiles for the specified artist, newest first. Engagement counts (`views`, `likes`, `comments`, `reposts`) are the values captured by the most recent scrape of that profile; they are null on platforms that do not report them and on posts stored before engagement capture. Supports pagination for large post collections.
