Automated LinkedIn Tech Content Curation and Posting
detail.loadingPreview
Effortlessly maintain an active and engaging LinkedIn presence with this n8n workflow. It automates the discovery, filtering, and preparation of unique, relevant tech articles for scheduled posting, ensuring you consistently share valuable content without manual effort.
About This Workflow
This robust n8n workflow revolutionizes your LinkedIn content strategy by automating the entire process of finding and sharing valuable tech articles. It starts by fetching a random tech tag, then queries the DEV.to API for trending articles. Critically, it prevents duplicate posts by cross-referencing against a 'used articles' list stored in Airtable, ensuring your audience always receives fresh content. The workflow then selects a random, relevant, and English-language article, extracts its details, and prepares it for posting. Finally, it logs the posted article in Airtable and sends a confirmation notification to Telegram, keeping you informed and your content stream vibrant and hands-free. Perfect for busy professionals and content creators aiming for consistent social engagement.
Key Features
- Automated Content Curation: Discovers and selects relevant tech articles from DEV.to based on customizable tags.
- Duplicate Content Prevention: Utilizes Airtable to track previously shared articles, guaranteeing fresh posts every time.
- Scheduled Posting: Configured to trigger at optimal times, ensuring a consistent and timely content flow.
- Customizable Filtering: Filters articles by language and ensures they haven't been shared before.
- Activity Logging & Notifications: Records posted article IDs in Airtable and sends success notifications via Telegram.
How To Use
- Configure Schedule Trigger ('Morning 9 Clock'): Adjust the cron expression to your desired posting times (e.g.,
0 9,19 * * *for 9 AM and 7 PM UTC). - Customize Random Tags ('get random tags'): Edit the
devToTagsarray in the Code node to include your preferred technology categories and keywords. - Set Up Airtable Integration ('Get List of records used', 'Update the used node'):
- Create an Airtable Base (e.g., 'Linkdin') and a Table (e.g., 'Used Articles') with a text column named 'value' to store article IDs.
- Connect your Airtable Personal Access Token credential.
- Select your Base and Table in both Airtable nodes.
- Connect Telegram for Notifications ('sent the status'):
- Obtain a Telegram Bot API Token and your Chat ID (you can use a bot like GetIDsBot to find your chat ID).
- Create a Telegram API credential in n8n and select it in the 'sent the status' node.
- Update the
Chat IDparameter with your personal or group chat ID.
- Add LinkedIn Posting Node (Optional, but recommended): Connect a LinkedIn node after 'download image for post' to automatically publish the curated article and its image to your LinkedIn profile or page. Use expressions like
{{ $('get random articles').item.json.title }}for the title and{{ $('download image for post').item.json.data }}for the image data.
