- Authenticate using the admin’s Bluesky App Password and email address (
/xrpc/com.atproto.server.createSession) - Fetch public post data from the user’s feed (
/xrpc/app.bsky.feed.getAuthorFeed)
- Authenticate using the admin’s Bluesky App Password and email address (
-
https://cdn.bsky.app – This is used to fetch thumbnail images for posts.
The plugin sends the following data:
