Who is this workflow for? This workflow automates the retrieval of tweets and seamlessly transfers them to Airtable. It initially gathers up to 100 tweets, with the flexibility to adjust this number. From the second execution onward, the workflow intelligently fetches only new tweets based on their Tweet IDs, ensuring no duplicates are added to your Airtable database..

What does this workflow do?

  • Trigger Execution: The workflow is initiated manually or scheduled to run at specified intervals.
  • Fetch Tweets: Using the Twitter (X) integration, the workflow retrieves the latest tweets, up to a configurable limit (default is 100).
  • Check for New Tweets: The workflow compares fetched Tweet IDs with those already stored in Airtable to identify new entries.
  • Filter New Tweets: Only tweets that are not present in Airtable are selected for addition.
  • Add to Airtable: The new tweets are formatted and inserted into the designated Airtable base and table, capturing relevant details such as Tweet ID, content, author, and timestamp.
  • Update Tracking: The workflow updates a tracking mechanism to record the latest Tweet ID processed, ensuring subsequent executions fetch only newer tweets.
  • Notification (Optional): Sends a notification via Gmail or other integrated services to confirm the successful addition of new tweets.
