# Edit Published Social Post

> Edit the text of an already-published social post created via the API.

```
edit_published_social_post
```

## Description

Edits the text of an already-published social post created through the API. Use it to fix a typo or update the wording of a post that is already public. Only the text can be changed, and only on Facebook, Google Business Profile, and LinkedIn.

<Warning>
  This is a **write tool** — it changes live content on the connected social channel. Confirm the exact post and the new text with the user before calling.
</Warning>

## Parameters

| Parameter            | Type           | Required | Default | Description                                                                     |
| -------------------- | -------------- | -------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `accountNumber`      | string         | Yes      | —       | Account/business number the post belongs to                                     |
| `trackingId`         | string         | Yes      | —       | Tracking ID returned when the post was created through the API                  |
| `text`               | string         | Yes      | —       | New post text. Character limits: Google 1500, Facebook 5000, LinkedIn 3000      |
| `socialSite`         | string         | Yes      | —       | Channel to edit. Valid values: `"FACEBOOK"`, `"GOOGLEMYBUSINESS"`, `"LINKEDIN"` |
| `subBusinessNumbers` | list\[integer] | Yes      | —       | Location IDs the edit applies to. IDs not part of the original post are ignored |

## Example Usage

```
Fix the typo in my published Google post BvgqPRWtObg4jWTKG2wHBg.
```

```
Update the text on my published LinkedIn post BvgqPRWtObg4jWTKG2wHBg.
```

## Notes

* Returns a success response indicating the post text was updated.
* Only the **text** can be edited, and only on `FACEBOOK`, `GOOGLEMYBUSINESS`, and `LINKEDIN`.
* `trackingId` is supplied by the user (returned when the post was created through the API) — it cannot be resolved from another tool.
* To take the post down instead, use [`delete_social_post`](/mcp/tools/social/delete-social-post).
