Solutions Day 1 - Build A Buffer Clone To Automate Your Social Media Marketing In The Power Platform

This session will demonstrate how we developed a social media manager that allows us to add social posts to a calendar to be posted on a schedule. To implement this, we show how we use Power Automate Desktop to post to LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and TikTok without using their API's.

You will learn how we:

•  Capture text, videos and images in a mobile Power Apps.
• Develop a social media schedule to define what should be posted to where and when. 
• Created a Cloud Flow that creates the post by communicating to a dedicated machine using Power Automate Desktop.
•  Handle synchronisation of attachments from mobile devices to One Drive so that Power Automate Desktop can utilise them
•  Created a web automation script that automatically posts to every social network. 
•  Catered for the different demands of each social platform by checking and validating text length and attachment types
