1. Access Pabbly Connect to Set Up Automation

To start automating the process of converting tweets into images and posting them on Instagram, you need to access Pabbly Connect. Simply navigate to the Pabbly website and sign in or create a free account.

After signing in, you will be directed to your dashboard. Here, you can create a new workflow by clicking on the blue ‘Create Workflow’ button. Name your workflow, for example, ‘Auto post Twitter data on Instagram,’ and click on ‘Create’ to initiate the setup.

2. Connecting Twitter to Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will connect your Twitter account to Pabbly Connect. To do this, select Twitter as the trigger application. Choose the event ‘New Tweet’ to trigger the automation whenever you post a new tweet.

Click on ‘Connect’ and then select ‘Add New Connection’. Authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Twitter account. Once connected, you can fetch the most recent tweet data to use in your automation.

• Select Twitter as the trigger application.
• Choose ‘New Tweet’ as the trigger event.
• Authorize access to your Twitter account.

Once the connection is established, you can test it by posting a tweet. This will allow Pabbly Connect to capture the tweet data for the next steps.

3. Creating an Image from the Tweet Using Switchboard

The next step involves converting the tweet into an image using the Switchboard Canvas application through Pabbly Connect. First, select Switchboard Canvas as the action application and choose the action event ‘Create Image’.

Connect to your Switchboard Canvas account by providing your API key. Once connected, you will need to select the template you created in Switchboard Canvas for generating images. This template will define how your tweet will appear as an image.

• Select ‘Create Image’ as the action event.
• Provide your Switchboard API key to establish the connection.
• Choose the appropriate template for the image.

After selecting the template, you will map the tweet’s text and media URL to the corresponding fields in the Switchboard Canvas setup. This allows the image to be generated dynamically based on the tweet content.

4. Posting the Image to Instagram

Now that the image is created, the next step is to post it on Instagram using Pabbly Connect. Select Instagram for Business as the action application and choose the action event ‘Publish Photo’.

Connect your Instagram account by authorizing Pabbly Connect to access your Instagram for Business account. You will then need to map the photo URL generated from the Switchboard Canvas step and add a caption for your post.

Select ‘Publish Photo’ as the action event. Map the photo URL from the Switchboard Canvas step. Add a caption using the tweet text mapped from the previous steps.

Once everything is set up, you can test the workflow. If successful, your image will be posted on Instagram with the caption derived from your tweet, completing the automation process.
