Having the time to do everything is difficult. Especially when it
comes to posting stuff on social media -
whether or not, if it was done automatically , you
could save time.
By saving time, you could focus on what's
essential.
This service is powered by Zappier, and can benefit many companies
or individuals who publish social media posts.
Therefore, it's interesting what we can do with this service.
Second, HootSuite or Loomly and other softwares offer paying
versions of social media management. This solution is free and always
will be!
Our solution provides you with an automatic google sheet to
Linkedin post solution. Have an Idea for a Post? Write it on
your Google Sheet and you can automatically update it using
Zappier.
In the future, this tool can be used for individuals and professional who wish to gain time in their day - students, journalists, communications department, professors - anyone who uses Google Drive and Linkedin ! It would also help people understand better what is an API and how can it be used in daily tasks for better time management.
To do this it's quite easy. It can be breaked down into a few
steps. But if you're too lazy, have a look right here :

If you wish for more information, we are here to support you
to create your Zap.
Now for a bit of storytelling and why/how I came up with this idea.
For starters, I've personally been creating social media posts for
an organisation who pays a service called Loomly for them to do
exactly this. In other words, why pay something when you can have
it free?
Moreover, we write posts on Google Sheets, which are then revised,
then we upload it on Loomly, and then finally it is updated to
social media. The number of sollicitated APIs for the creation of
one post is huge, and imagine this for a
team of 10 people.
Through a Zap ⚡️, we are using GOOGLE DRIVE'S API into LINKEDIN'S API as an attempt to building a software-to-software interface. Of course, there are many competitors.
First, Google Drive actually has incorporaated built-in features
for sharing on Instagram and Facebook. Still not Linkedin
however!
1. Create a Zappier Account
2. Create a Zap
3. Trigger - New File in Folder in Google Drive
4. Action - Create Share Update in Linkedin
5. Turn on, and Zap ⚡️⚡️⚡️ !
The switch is like the picture below.
