# Generate content tools

> Generate SEO metadata, schemas, and social snippets for content

Triggers generation of SEO metadata (title, description, keywords), JSON-LD schema markup, and social media snippets (Open Graph, Twitter) for completed content.

**Scope required:** `content_tools:write`

## Path parameters

<ParamField path="id" type="string" required>UUID of a completed article.</ParamField>

## Request body

<ParamField body="tools" type="array">
  Specific tools to generate. Defaults to all available tools.

  Options: `seo-metadata`, `schemas`, `social-snippets`, `page-slugs`, `post-tags`, `search-intent`
</ParamField>

<ResponseExample>
  ```json 202 theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
  {
    "data": {
      "article_id": "4d42cdcf-e24f-4123-960e-6c15761fcfcf",
      "tools": [
        "seoMetadata",
        "combinedSchema",
        "facebookSnip",
        "instagramSnip",
        "twitterSnip",
        "googleBusinessSnip"
      ],
      "status": "generating",
      "message": "Generation typically completes within a few minutes. Configure webhooks to receive real-time status notifications: https://api-docs.hrizn.io/webhooks"
    }
  }
  ```
</ResponseExample>

<Tip>
  Content tool generation is asynchronous and typically completes within a few minutes. Configure [webhooks](/webhooks) to receive real-time `content_tools.completed` notifications instead of polling.
</Tip>

<Note>
  Content tools results are available as content components. Use [Get content components](/api-reference/content/get-components) to retrieve them.
