📱 Automate follower resource distribution on BlueSky with keyword-triggered DMs
⚡ 33 views · 📱 Social Media & Email Marketing
Description
This workflow acts as an automated engagement bot. It sends a Direct Message (DM) with a link or resource to any follower who replies to your post with a specific target keyword.
Who is this for
Ideal for creators and community managers who want to distribute resources (PDFs, links, invites) to their audience automatically without manually messaging each person.
What it does
It scans your notifications for new replies and applies a strict filter to ensure only the right people get messaged:
- Targeted: It only monitors replies on the specific post you choose.
- Keyword Match: Checks if the user’s reply contains your specific trigger word (e.g., “Send”).
- Follower Check: Verifies if the user is following you (if not, it skips them).
- Delivery: Opens a chat conversation and sends your pre-set message.
- Engagement: Automatically “Likes” the user’s reply to confirm receipt.
- Anti-Spam: Remembers processed replies so it never messages the same user twice for the same interaction.
How to set up
- Configuration: Open the first node (“Configuration”) and enter:
- BlueSky Credentials: Your Handle and App Password.
- Target Post URL: The full link to the specific BlueSky post you want to monitor.
- Trigger Keyword: The word users must type (e.g., “Template”).
- DM Message: The actual text/link to send them.
- Activate: Turn the workflow on. It runs every 30 minutes to batch-process new replies.
