What Problem Does It Solve?

Posting the same message to many Facebook groups manually is time-consuming, error-prone, and inefficient. Navigating the UI repeatedly can lead to fatigue and missed deadlines. This workflow automates browser interactions linking Telegram-triggered content creation with dynamic group lists from Google Sheets, eliminating manual browser clicking and typing—saving you hours while maintaining consistency and control.

How It Works

🔧 Workflow Steps:

1. ⏱ Trigger: Listens for new messages in a Telegram chat to capture the post content
2. 📎 Browser Setup: Initializes the Airtop browser session with a Facebook profile
3. 🔍 Data Retrieval: Retrieves your list of Facebook groups dynamically from Google Sheets
4. 🤖 Group Processing: For each group, opens the Facebook group page, scrolls down, and interacts with the post input field
5. 💌 Publishing: Types and publishes the post, then sends a success message back to Telegram with group details
6. 🗂 Loop Management: Waits 5 seconds before looping to the next group and closes the browser when done
