Learn how to add [SocialAttachment](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Social.SocialAttachment.aspx) objects to microblog posts, which render as embedded pictures, videos, and documents in SharePoint social feeds.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> This article applies to classic SharePoint Server social feed (microblogging) features. These APIs are not used in modern SharePoint experiences and are not available in SharePoint Online modern sites.

In a social feed, the simplest form of post content contains only text, but you can also add embedded pictures, videos, and documents. To do this, you use the [Attachment](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Social.SocialPostCreationData.Attachment.aspx) property on the [SocialPostCreationData](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Social.SocialPostCreationData.aspx) object that defines the post. Posts can contain one attachment, which is represented by a [SocialAttachment](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Social.SocialAttachment.aspx) object.
