Call Zaver functions from your own tools

Agencies with their own dashboards, product builders, data teams, Zapier and Make users.

Short answer

Create an API key under Settings → Developer with the scopes you need. Call https://radar.zaver.one/api/functions/<function> with Authorization: Bearer pk_live_… and a JSON body. The functions are followers, engagement, analyzer (the AI part of a report), insights (numbers only), profile-insights (the full report), username (name lookup), track (posts with pagination), discover (jobs), hashtags, creators/enrich and jobs/{id}. Calls spend the same credits as the app, every call is logged in the audit log, and an Idempotency-Key header makes retries free. A report run in the last seven days answers in under a second.

You need

  • A Radar account on any plan
  • Somewhere to make HTTPS calls: your backend, Zapier, Make, a notebook

Step by step in Zaver

  1. 1

    Create a key

    Settings → Developer → create key → pick scopes (functions.* for the calls you need). Copy it once.

  2. 2

    Make a first call

    POST /api/functions/profile-insights with {"username": "<handle>"}. The response is the full report: scores, audience splits, pricing, partnerships.

  3. 3

    Handle long jobs

    discover waits up to 30 seconds, then returns a job id. Poll /api/functions/jobs/{id} until done.

  4. 4

    Page through posts

    track takes limit and maxPages; use it to list an account's recent media with metrics.

  5. 5

    Make retries safe

    Send an Idempotency-Key header on every call that spends credits. A retry with the same key is free.

  6. 6

    Watch spend

    Settings → Audit log shows every call with who, what and credits. Rate and daily caps are per plan; Scale has the higher limits.

Or ask it in ChatGPT or Claude

With Zaver connected as an MCP server, the whole job is one message. Your assistant calls get_creator_insights behind the scenes.

profile-insights returns the full report in one POST; insights returns numbers only; analyzer returns the AI part.

Illustrative sample. Handles are masked; numbers show the shape of a real result, not a specific account.

Cost

Per call at your plan's developer rates, the same credits as the app. Reports reused free for 7 days.
