Wondering the same, did you find out?
Yes, I was able to implement using app only permissions. In order to connect to the import api, we would need to grant the app principal admin rights on the social API. You will need to navigate to the sharepoint online admin center and then navigate to the app permission page (_layouts/15/appinv.aspx). Use the below permission xml which grants tenant admin rights and admin rights on social api.
<AppPermissionRequests AllowAppOnlyPolicy="true" >
<AppPermissionRequest Scope="http://sharepoint/content/tenant" Right="FullControl" />
<AppPermissionRequest Scope="http://sharepoint/social/tenant" Right="FullControl" />
</AppPermissionRequests>
