Post to Google My Business from Grok Bot

Grok Bot can post to your Google Business Profile through the Postiz plugin. Add the plugin to a Bot, store your Postiz API key as a secret, and describe the update. The Bot picks the post type (standard, event, or offer), fills event dates or coupon details, adds a call-to-action button, and schedules it in Postiz on a routine.

What is Grok Bot?

Grok Bot is the always-on AI teammate product from xAI and Cursor. You create named Bots, give each one a job, and they work 24/7 on their own persistent cloud computer — with a browser, a filesystem, and a terminal — pinging you only when they need approval.

Grok Bot is not the Grok chatbot. Grok is the assistant you chat with on X and grok.com. Grok Bot is a separate app for delegating real, multi-step work — like running your Google My Business presence with Postiz.

💻

Own Cloud Computer

Every Bot gets a persistent cloud machine with a terminal. Postiz runs there, so your Google My Business posts go out even when your laptop is closed.

🔁

Routines

Turn any task into a routine that runs on a schedule. Your Bot drafts, schedules, and reports on Google My Business content without being asked twice.

🛡️

Approvals Built In

Bots ask before changing external systems. Review the Google My Business posts your Bot prepared in Postiz, approve, and it publishes.

How Postiz Works with Grok Bot

Postiz is listed on the Grok Bot plugin marketplace. Add it to a Bot and the Postiz skill, CLI, and command reference are installed on its cloud computer — the Bot can then manage your Google My Business workflow on its own.

✓Type /add-plugin postiz in a Bot chat, or add it from the Plugins sidebar
✓Store your POSTIZ_API_KEY as a Bot secret when prompted
✓The Bot reads the bundled SKILL.md and learns every Postiz command
✓Works in every Bot on your shared workspace, on desktop and iPhone
✓Approvals keep a human in the loop before anything is published

Grok Bot

# 1. Add the plugin to your Bot
/add-plugin postiz

# 2. Store your Postiz API key
#    as a secret when prompted

# 3. Ask your Bot to verify
You: Find my Google My Business channel in Postiz

Bot: Running postiz integrations:list
  Found your Google My Business integration.
  All Postiz commands are ready.

How Grok Bot runs Google My Business on a routine

Your Bot reads the Postiz skill, discovers your Google My Business integration, and handles the entire posting workflow — from content creation to scheduling — on its own cloud computer.

🧠

Message Your Bot

Desktop, iPhone, or a group chat

Send a message to your Bot from the desktop app or your iPhone. It runs on its own cloud computer, so it picks up your message, discovers your Google My Business account via Postiz, uploads your media, and schedules the post — then asks you to approve before it goes live.

Grok Bot

You: Post to Google My Business about our new
  feature launch, schedule for tomorrow
  at 9am

Bot: Got it! Here's the plan:
  1. Find your Google My Business integration
  2. Compose your post content
  3. Schedule for tomorrow 9:00 AM

  Done! Post scheduled successfully.
  Post ID: abc-123

🧠

Routines

Recurring work on a schedule

Save the task as a routine. Your Bot runs it on a schedule from the cloud, checks for new content, and posts it to Google My Business automatically — no manual trigger needed.

Grok Bot routine

Routine: daily-google-my-business-posts
Schedule: Weekdays at 9:00 AM

Instructions:
  Check ~/content/posts on your cloud
  computer for new .txt files. For
  each one, read the content and
  schedule a post to Google My Business for
  today at noon via Postiz. Move
  posted files to ~/content/published
  and send me a summary.

Why Grok Bot + Postiz for Google My Business

Also Works with Claude Code

Postiz works with any AI agent that can run commands or call MCP tools — you ask, the agent does the work. That includes Anthropic's Claude Code. See the Claude Code guide for Google My Business, the guide for any AI agent, or connect over the Postiz MCP server.

Claude Code

by Anthropic

Claude reads the Postiz skill so it knows what it can do, then autonomously discovers your GMB integration, determines the right post type and CTA settings, and publishes the update.

Claude Code

> Create a Google My Business event post
  for our grand opening on March 15th
  from 10am to 6pm, with a Book CTA

Claude: Done! Scheduled on Google My Business for
  tomorrow at 9:00 AM.

Cross-post Google My Business content to other platforms

Schedule the same content to Google My Business and other platforms in a single request. Each platform gets its own settings.

Example

> Post "Excited to announce our new feature!" to
  Google My Business and LinkedIn tomorrow at 9am, then schedule
  a daily tip on Google My Business every weekday at 10am

Grok Bot: Done! Scheduled:
  - Google My Business + LinkedIn: tomorrow 9:00 AM
  - Daily tips on Google My Business: Mon-Fri 10:00 AM

Example prompts for Google My Business in Grok Bot

Google My Business rules Grok Bot follows

Grok Bot reads the Google My Business rules from postiz integrations:settings before scheduling. These are the ones that most often change what gets published.

✓topicType chooses the post type: STANDARD, EVENT, or OFFER. Event posts require eventTitle plus start and end dates in YYYY-MM-DD format.
✓callToActionType accepts NONE, BOOK, ORDER, SHOP, LEARN_MORE, SIGN_UP, GET_OFFER, or CALL. All except NONE and CALL need callToActionUrl.
✓Offer posts can carry offerCouponCode, offerRedeemUrl, and offerTerms. Google shows the coupon code prominently.
✓Google Business posts are short-form. Keep updates concise and upload images through postiz upload first.

Add the Postiz plugin with /add-plugin postiz and store your POSTIZ_API_KEY as a Bot secret. Connect your Google Business Profile in Postiz, then describe the update. The Bot sets the post type, CTA button, and any event or offer details, then schedules through Postiz. You approve first.

Can Grok Bot create Google Business event posts?
