Open Pixabay API docs ↗Amazon S3
Use a least-privilege IAM credential scoped to one bucket. Record access key ID, secret, region, and bucket.

Publishes to TikTok and YouTube (both tested in production) and connects Instagram Reels, Facebook, LinkedIn, Threads, Pinterest and Bluesky (not yet tested). Create a Zernio account, then a distribution key under Settings → API Keys. Direct YouTube publishing does not need Zernio. This is a referral link.

Open the project and copy its correlation ID. Every API, worker, render, and publish log for that workflow carries the same ID.
