    This is absolutely fantastic Thank You!
    I wondered if there was a way to do a filter for the time as well so it sends the posts at the set time in the airtable - like 15.05.24 at 6.03pm?

    • @BusinessAutomatedTutorials
      @BusinessAutomatedTutorials  6 місяців тому

      Yes, could set time in Airtable and have records drop to a View only if the time is later than now (condition for filter).

    Hi ! Thanks a lot for your content and the quality of your explanations. You are saving me a huge amount of hours thanks to your automation.
    My question is how can we do the same with instagram stories. As i didn't see the option on make i was trying to understand if it was part of the premium plan or there is another solution to tackle this issue.
    Thanks again for your help. You rock !

      For that you can use a custom container. In this series I have video about Reels - same methodology but you set up container for carousel instead of reel.

    Hello there, nice tutorial thank you very much for sharing it! There is a way to schedule all the instagram post directly in the Facebook Business Suite? - I tried with Facebook (Facebook Pages) and there is an option to schedule the post. So after the automation starts it schedule all the post that are with status "approved"? Hope this makes sense

    • @BusinessAutomatedTutorials
      @BusinessAutomatedTutorials  Рік тому

      Not sure about the capabilities of the Facebook Business Suite, but in the solution I showed here you can set a date for when the content is supposed to be posted.

    • @BusinessAutomatedTutorials

      Using filter on that view. Set in the menu above for filter so that only the relevant records show up.

    Could you explain us how to post carousel, since I have tried and it only works with single post . Thank you

    • @BusinessAutomatedTutorials
      @BusinessAutomatedTutorials  2 роки тому

      Hi,
      Carousel is a separate type of content on Facebook/Instagram API -> Make (and many social media posting software don't have it). To post carousel, you would have to take similar approach as Reels described in my video here:
      ua-cam.com/video/xtegD5eQZFE/v-deo.html
      Instead of type REEL you would need no however follow steps described in here
      developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-api/guides/content-publishing/#carousel-posts
      In Make terms that would mean - Array iterator of content in Airtable field. Each content of carousel uploaded individually to get Container Id. Next Make Array aggregator module to create array of Container ID, Http request to create Container for type CAROUSEL, and next HTTP request to publish that carousel. Bit convoluted but possible.

      Yes, the validity of he link is 2 hours from the moment you get that link via API - every time you make API request you get Attachment link with 2 hour validity.

    Hello.
    I saw your list of tutorials (I'm already watching the second one, thanks) and I didn't see any on how to post content on Tik Tok.
    Since your spreadsheet has Tik Tok in the "Channel" column, I thought you could talk about it.
    Thank you very much.

    • @BusinessAutomatedTutorials
      @BusinessAutomatedTutorials  Рік тому +1

      I actually wanted to integrate TikTok, but there are some difficulties there. The implementation of OAuth authorization by TikTok is bit weirdly executed. Because of that the Make. TikTok module cannot be used for some of the endpoints available in TikTok API like for example posting videos to your profile... Instead of doing the Authorization via Make - it could be done directly, but I am already waiting few months for the developer access, so likely they are not providing wider access yet. The only other too I have seen that could potentially do it is www.ayrshare.com/ but I did not test it out.
      Would really like to add TikTok as well.

      ​@@BusinessAutomatedTutorials I found a way. I used the text pattern matching module (advanced) to extract the video ID from a link to a specific UA-cam video, and then passed it to the HTTP module for download. Each thumbnail has almost the same URL structure, so all I had to do was inject the ID into that URL: img.ua-cam.com/users/vi[VIDEO_ID]/maxresdefault.jpg

    Cool video thanks! So if you mark it evergreen you would might want the post to come back based on a certain interval right, would you then just need to add more dates or could you automate an if this than that to make sure all evergreen content is reposted within a set interval that you can set

    • @BusinessAutomatedTutorials
      @BusinessAutomatedTutorials  Рік тому

      Hi actually I have not planned to repost exact same stuff. My thinking is that people remember that they have seen things. Ever green for me would be for example Airtable Tips - reminders of basic functionality, not time specific, can post any time. However if you would like to repeat certain posts, you could add Airtable Automation that clones Evergreen posts , the moment they are published and sets them x weeks in the future.

    Just a question...the only thing I can't figure out or find any tutorials on is using this scenrio...airtable with make(integromat) to autopost a instagram carousel post. when I run it, it posts it but only the first photo in sequence (selected the instagram carousel module) but not the others even though they are on on airtable. Can you assist?

    • @BusinessAutomatedTutorials
      @BusinessAutomatedTutorials  Рік тому

      You can be doing this already natively with Make they already have a module for Carousel posts. To put multiple images there you would have to use Array iterator to separate images from Airtable into individual pieces and then Array Aggregator to combine them into a single object, that would be inserted into the File placeholder (change to Map) in Make.

    Hi there, what would you change if you wanted to add different descriptions for different social media. Ie. twitter is limited characters so would need to post the same content but a shortened version. Would I have to insert an entirely new line? Or could I have twitter linked to a 'copy 2'.
    Also thank you for your amazing videos! I have learned a lot these last couple weeks with your help!!

    • @BusinessAutomatedTutorials

      In this case I would add a new column "Twitter copy" , "Facebook copy" etc this way you can have different descriptions for different socials.

      API by itself is an official feature, Make integrations are approved by Meta and used many businesses, including me with no issue. Posting by API is fine, but do keep in mind all Terms that Meta requires from you. My guess is that Instagram had issue with your content or how your account was set up. From my own experience it is not easy to get any sensible feedback from META, but possible. I hope you will be able to recover the account! Good luck!
