# List the social networks (`social_networks`)

Every network the business can post to, how each connects (a link, a login, Telegram's code, or its own bot or webhook), and whether it is switched on yet.

Every network Conecto can post to and how each connects: link (OAuth: you get a link for the owner to open), login (you pass the account's login or key to social_connect; how says which) or telegram. enabled says whether it is switched on for Conecto yet; the others wait for the network's app review. Telegram, Discord and Slack also connect with the business's own bot or webhook (own: the fields for social_connect and how to get them), which needs no app review, so it works enabled or not.

Price: Free up to 1,000,000 reads a month for the whole account, then $0.50 per 10,000 reads. A call that fails costs nothing.

## Use it when

Before connecting an account, to learn how its network connects.

`result`: Every network with its id, name, how it connects (link, login or telegram) and enabled; a login network also lists the fields it needs and how to get them. Telegram, Discord and Slack also list own: the fields for the business's own bot or webhook and how to get them, which work whether the network is enabled or not.
