# `schedule_content`

_Content & calendar_

`write` `idempotent`

Set the planned calendar date for a content card (the day it should be posted). Pass YYYY-MM-DD for a day (stored at noon UTC so the day is stable in every timezone) or a full ISO timestamp when the exact time matters. This only plans the date; it does not publish.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `brandId` | `string` | no |  |
| `contentId` | `string` | yes |  |
| `date` | `string` | yes |  |

### Prompt

```text
Schedule my next Reels script for this coming Friday.
