Automated posts from Zapier/Make/N8N
I know there are a handful of Wordpress based automation plugins that can handle automated posting, however I'm wondering if you can do this through Make/Zapier/N8N etc? I ideally want to stage some posts in Airtable, then trigger them to schedule/post to my community so I can keep a content calendar of sorts. Has anyone done this? #zapier #n8n #automation
yes. Yes. Look for the bit plugins Bit Flows and Bit integrations.
elton colins The original post literally asks about how to do it outside of Wordpress.
Bob i´m sorry. In that case, I honestly don't know.
elton colins No problem. I know that Bit Flows and Flowmattic can do this, but I'm trying to use what I already have rather than getting a whole new plugin/expense for one thing.
I use n8n with FluentCRM and some other external tools. Where do you want to keep the trigger?
William Beem THIS --> "Where do you want to keep the trigger?" is the question I've been needing in order to clarify my entire automation system. 🤩🙏🏼
William Beem Looking to do this with Fluent Community, not the CRM, just an fyi. The trigger would be from Airtable.
Charlotte D I've been using FluentCRM as my source of authority, even when there are other automation engines involved. It helps my brain to have a single place to initiate things.
You could probably do it using the official FluentCommunity API (https://dev.fluentcommunity.co/restapi/) but it would be easier to use one of the WP automation plugins.
Thomas Oates I'm starting to get that. I might still look into using one of them.
We use Flowmattic to create posts on our groups. They're triggered by a new Google Sheet row or column, but can very well be triggerd by Airtable or FluentBoards.
