Platform facts last verified: 2026-08-10
Publishly connects to Bluesky using App password, can post to it today, and does not yet report analytics for it through Publishly. Any failed Bluesky post carries one of 20 documented failure codes, shared across every connected network.
| Capability | Bluesky |
|---|---|
| Authentication | App password |
| Posting via Publishly | Supported by Publishly |
| Analytics via Publishly | Not yet supported |
| Scheduling | Supported — schedule from the calendar or the public API, same as every other connected account. |
| Failure codes | Same shared catalog as every other network — the 20-code reference |
- Bluesky connects with an app password rather than OAuth — Bluesky does not offer a third-party OAuth authorization flow for posting apps.
- Bluesky does not report analytics through Publishly.
We don’t publish numbers we haven’t re-verified.
Media specs, character limits & rate limits vary by API version and change without much notice from the platform. Rather than print numbers here that go stale, Publishly points you at Bluesky’s own developer documentation — the detailed per-platform specs on this page are still being verified against the current API.
Bluesky developer documentation
Bluesky authenticates with an app password rather than OAuth — Publishly only ever asks for that app-specific password, never your main account password.
