Posts
Posts is the internal feed: announcements and notes that everybody in the workspace can see. Use it for something the whole team should know that does not belong in a document, such as a heads-up, a decision or a thank you. Posts stay inside MaxSuite; nothing here is sent outside.
In the sidebar under Content → Posts. Needs: nothing else switched on.
Posts screen
- A box at the top to write a post, with an optional link field and a Post button. It shows only to people who can post.
- The feed, newest first. Pinned posts sit above the rest and carry a "pinned" label.
- Each post shows who wrote it, when, and the whole text. A post can carry an image, and a link card showing the link's title (or the address itself) and its site.
- Comments sit under each post, oldest first, with a box to add your own.
- Older posts loads the next twenty.
With nothing posted yet, the feed says "Nothing posted yet".
Write a post
- Open Posts.
- Type in the box. The first line becomes the post's title, so make it say what the post is about.
- To attach a link, paste it in the link field. If you leave that field empty, the first web address in your text becomes the link.
- Press Post.
Comment on a post
- Type in the Add a comment box under the post.
- Press Enter. The comment is signed with your name.
Comment rather than editing what somebody else wrote.
Delete a post
- Press Delete on the post and confirm.
- The post goes, with all its comments. There is no undo.
You can delete your own posts. An admin can delete anyone's, and a post with no author is the admin's alone. The Delete button only shows where you are allowed to use it.
Edit or pin a post
The screen does not edit or pin posts. An author or an admin can change a post's title, text, link or image through an agent (posts.update). Pinning a post to the top of everyone's feed, or unpinning it, is for admins only.
Who can do what
| Permission | Label | Lets you |
|---|---|---|
posts:read | View posts | Read the feed and its comments. |
posts:write | Manage posts | Write posts and comments, and edit or delete your own posts. |
Holding posts:write lets you post. It does not let you change or delete what a colleague posted: that is the author's, or an admin's. See People, roles and permissions.
What happens on its own
Nothing in this module runs on a schedule.
What agents can do
An agent can read the feed, post, comment, and edit or delete its own posts. The author of a post or comment is whoever makes the call. By default each change waits for a person to approve it. See Agents and approvals.
Read only: posts.list, posts.get
Write: posts.create, posts.update, posts.comment
Delete (cannot be undone): posts.delete
posts.create needs a title and a body, and can carry a link, a link title and an image. posts.get returns one post with its comments.
Over MCP the same tools are named posts__list, posts__create and so on. See API keys and MCP access.
