## About

# Social Media Tracking

## Overview

Tracking is a best practice for getting more complete data from Xpoz. When you track a keyword, user, subreddit, or hashtag, Xpoz continuously collects data for those items in the background. This means:

- **More complete data:** Tracked items accumulate data over time, giving you a fuller picture than one-off queries.
- **Better coverage:** Continuous collection captures posts and activity that a single point-in-time query might miss.

You can track four types of items across platforms:
- **Keywords** — Track any phrase or topic (e.g., "AI agents", "your brand name"). Xpoz continuously collects posts matching these keywords across the platforms you specify.
- **Users** — Track specific accounts (e.g., a competitor, influencer, or your own brand handle). Xpoz collects their posts and activity.
- **Subreddits** (Reddit only) — Track entire subreddit communities to monitor discussions.
- **Hashtags** (TikTok only) — Track TikTok hashtags to follow trends and campaigns.

## When to Use
- "Track mentions of [BRAND] across social media"
- "Set up monitoring for [KEYWORD] on Twitter and Reddit"
- "What keywords am I currently tracking?"
- "Add @competitor to my tracked users on Instagram"
- "Monitor #AIagents on TikTok"
- "Stop tracking [OLD KEYWORD]"
- "How many tracked items can I add?"

## Step 1: Check Current Tracking

First, see what's already being tracked.

### Via MCP
```
Call getTrackedItems
```

### Via Python SDK
```python
from xpoz import XpozClient

client = XpozClient()
items = client.tracking.get_tracked_items()
for item in items:
    print(f"[{item.platform}] {item.type}: {item.phrase}")
client.close()
```

### Via TypeScript SDK
```typescript
import { XpozClient } from "@xpoz/xpoz";

const client = new XpozClient();
await client.connect();
const items = await client.tracking.getTrackedItems();
items.forEach(item => console.log(`[${item.platform}] ${item.type}: ${item.phrase}`));
await client.close();
```

### Via CLI
```bash
xpoz-cli tracking get_tracked_items
```

Present results as a table:
| Platform | Type | Phrase |
|----------|------|--------|
| twitter | keyword | AI agents |
| instagram | user | competitor_brand |
| reddit | subreddit | machinelearning |

## Step 2: Add Tracked Items

### Supported Types per Platform

| Platform | keyword | user | subreddit | hashtag |
|----------|---------|------|-----------|---------|
| Twitter | Yes | Yes | — | — |
| Instagram | Yes | Yes | — | — |
| Reddit | Yes | Yes | Yes | — |
| TikTok | Yes | Yes | — | Yes |

### Via MCP
```
Call addTrackedItems with items:
  [
    { "phrase": "AI agents", "type": "keyword", "platform": "twitter" },
    { "phrase": "AI agents", "type": "keyword", "platform": "reddit" },
    { "phrase": "competitor_user", "type": "user", "platform": "instagram" },
    { "phrase": "machinelearning", "type": "subreddit", "platform": "reddit" },
    { "phrase": "aitools", "type": "hashtag", "platform": "tiktok" }
  ]
```

### Via Python SDK
```python
client.tracking.add_tracked_items([
    {"phrase": "AI agents", "type": "keyword", "platform": "twitter"},
    {"phrase": "AI agents", "type": "keyword", "platform": "reddit"},
    {"phrase": "competitor_user", "type": "user", "platform": "instagram"},
    {"phrase": "machinelearning", "type": "subreddit", "platform": "reddit"},
    {"phrase": "aitools", "type": "hashtag", "platform": "tiktok"},
])
```

### Via TypeScript SDK
```typescript
await client.tracking.addTrackedItems([
  { phrase: "AI agents", type: "keyword", platform: "twitter" },
  { phrase: "AI agents", type: "keyword", platform: "reddit" },
  { phrase: "competitor_user", type: "user", platform: "instagram" },
  { phrase: "machinelearning", type: "subreddit", platform: "reddit" },
  { phrase: "aitools", type: "hashtag", platform: "tiktok" },
]);
```

### Via CLI
```bash
xpoz-cli tracking add_tracked_items \
  --items '[{"phrase": "AI agents", "type": "keyword", "platform": "twitter"}, {"phrase": "AI agents", "type": "keyword", "platform": "reddit"}, {"phrase": "competitor_user", "type": "user", "platform": "instagram"}]'
```

**Important:** Call `getAccountDetails` to check available tracked item slots before adding.

## Step 3: Remove Tracked Items

### Via MCP
```
Call removeTrackedItems with items:
  [{ "phrase": "old keyword", "type": "keyword", "platform": "twitter" }]
```

### Via Python SDK
```python
client.tracking.remove_tracked_items([
    {"phrase": "old keyword", "type": "keyword", "platform": "twitter"},
])
```

### Via TypeScript SDK
```typescript
await client.tracking.removeTrackedItems([
  { phrase: "old keyword", type: "keyword", platform: "twitter" },
]);
```

### Via CLI
```bash
xpoz-cli tracking remove_tracked_items \
  --items '[{"phrase": "old keyword", "type": "keyword", "platform": "twitter"}]'
```

**Tip:** Call `getTrackedItems` first to see exact phrases and platforms before removing.

## Tracking Item Format

| Field | Type | Description | Valid Values |
|-------|------|-------------|-------------|
| phrase | string | The keyword, username, subreddit name, or hashtag to track | Any string |
| type | string | What kind of item | "keyword", "user", "subreddit" (Reddit only), "hashtag" (TikTok only) |
| platform | string | Which platform | "twitter", "instagram", "reddit", "tiktok" |

## Common Workflows

### Track a Brand Across All Platforms
```
items: [
  { phrase: "YourBrand", type: "keyword", platform: "twitter" },
  { phrase: "YourBrand", type: "keyword", platform: "instagram" },
  { phrase: "YourBrand", type: "keyword", platform: "reddit" },
  { phrase: "YourBrand", type: "keyword", platform: "tiktok" },
  { phrase: "yourbrand", type: "user", platform: "twitter" },
  { phrase: "yourbrand", type: "user", platform: "instagram" }
]
```

### Track Keywords for Market Research
```
items: [
  { phrase: "AI agents", type: "keyword", platform: "twitter" },
  { phrase: "AI agents", type: "keyword", platform: "reddit" },
  { phrase: "AI agents", type: "keyword", platform: "tiktok" },
  { phrase: "LLM tools", type: "keyword", platform: "twitter" },
  { phrase: "LLM tools", type: "keyword", platform: "reddit" }
]
```

### Monitor a Competitor
```
items: [
  { phrase: "competitor_handle", type: "user", platform: "twitter" },
  { phrase: "competitor_handle", type: "user", platform: "instagram" },
  { phrase: "CompetitorName", type: "keyword", platform: "reddit" }
]
```

### Track a Hashtag Campaign on TikTok
```
items: [
  { phrase: "yourcampaign", type: "hashtag", platform: "tiktok" },
  { phrase: "campaignvariant", type: "hashtag", platform: "tiktok" },
  { phrase: "your campaign", type: "keyword", platform: "twitter" }
]
```

### Set Up Subreddit Monitoring
```
items: [
  { phrase: "machinelearning", type: "subreddit", platform: "reddit" },
  { phrase: "artificial", type: "subreddit", platform: "reddit" },
  { phrase: "LocalLLaMA", type: "subreddit", platform: "reddit" }
]
```

## Notes

- **Tracking vs one-shot queries:** Tracking sets up continuous data collection for more comprehensive results. One-shot queries (like `getTwitterPostsByKeywords`) search existing cached data and may miss recent activity. Track items you care about for ongoing, complete data; use one-shot queries for ad-hoc research.
- **Data completeness:** Tracked items are crawled regularly, giving you more comprehensive data than untracked queries. This is especially impactful for fast-moving topics or competitive monitoring.
- **Data availability:** Tracked data accumulates over time. New tracked items won't have historical data — they start collecting from when you add them.
