Tasks automation for social media only

#1

Hello all

I’m working on a web app prototype:

A set of useful and automated tasks/workflows for social media only. They will be configured by you and executed when an event is triggered.

Examples:

Event: If I’m on holidays, Action: Then automatically update my twitter profile banner.

Event: If I’m on holidays Condition: And a follower DM me, Action: Then Send my auto response message.

I know Zappier gives some of theses triggers but there are not totally social media oriented at all. (only 8 triggers exist for twitter)

Is this something you might be interested of ? Do you have any ideas on what triggers you would like me to create?

thank you

I'm using node-red for this kind of things. (running on an old samsung phone, using screen as a kind of dashboard) in past I use ifttt for this kind ot things and one of the biggest downside of ifttt was with ifttt you can only use one trigger, like;

if bla bla - do bla bla, but in real life I need triggers be like;

if bla bla and if bla bla too - do bla bla basically I'm talking about using more than one trigger or a combination of them.

(I'm not using ifttt anymore I guess they have a pro tier doing this)

some trigger ideas - follower / unfollower based triggers (some kind of activity on follower count triggers the flow)

- threshold based triggers (more than x comment, more than x likes etc.)

- people based triggers (x people tweeted or x people commented)

- word or hashtag based triggers (someone tweeted about x)

And last, for me social media isn't enough for triggers. Maybe you can integrate not only social but some online services too like;

- telegram, discord

- google (mail, analytics, calendar, drive, forms)

- netflix (new episode of x or new movie by x)

Thank you very much @umtksa for your feedbacks and for responding to my questions.

I'm planning to implement multiple triggers like: If - Then - And - Then If - And - And - Then

You have some great ideas. I will take them into considerations :)
