What you get
The first check saves a starting point. From the next check on, each new post becomes one signal. In the signal you see the caption, media and a link with Open post.

Each post is one event with eventType: "social_post". The full key list is on Social post events. A webhook gets one POST per check (a run webhook) and reads these events from its pages.
