Possible to limit the number of Facebook posts created by a Zap each day?

Hello,

We use Zapier to automatically publish posts to Facebook groups.

Facebook allows 25 posts per day, after which the account is blocked for 24 hours due to spam.

Is there a way to limit the number of posts in Zapier or to spread the posts over the day?


Regards

Hi @Andreas.K 

Good question.

You can use a Storage value to keep count and check again, then reset daily.

 

Zap 1

  1. Trigger: Schedule (Daily @ midnight)
  2. Action: Storage - Set Value (back to 0)

Zap 2

  1. Trigger: Schedule (Daily @ midnight)
  2. Action: Storage - Get Value
  3. Action: Filter (continue if less than 25)
  4. Action: Storage - Increment Value
  5. Action: Facebook Page - Create Page Post
