Facebook Daily Digest
This template automates the process of checking Facebook for you. It logs in, scrapes recent posts from your main news feed and the profiles of specific friends, uses AI to create a consolidated summary, and emails you the digest.

Featured Apps
This automation acts as your personal social media assistant to help you stay informed without getting lost in the scroll. Here’s how it works:
- Secure Login: It begins by navigating to Facebook and securely logging in with the credentials you provide. If you're already logged in, it intelligently skips this step.
- News Feed Scan: If you choose, the automation will browse your main news feed, collecting recent posts and identifying key details like the author, content, and engagement metrics. It can also be configured to filter out sponsored posts and ads.
- Friend Profile Check: It then systematically searches for a list of friends that you specify. For each friend found, it visits their profile and gathers their latest posts.
- AI-Powered Summarization: All the collected post data is sent to an AI, which generates a clean, well-organized email digest. The report includes highlights from your main feed and separate sections for each friend's activity.
- Email Delivery: Finally, the automation uses Gmail to send the formatted digest directly to your inbox, giving you a complete overview at a glance.
Usage Ideas
- Stay connected with close friends and family without the distraction of the full Facebook feed.
- Monitor posts from industry leaders or influencers to stay on top of trends.
- Track what your competitors are posting on their company or personal profiles.
- Create a personal archive of posts from specific individuals.
- Get a daily summary of activity in your private Facebook groups.
Customization Ideas
You have complete control to tailor this automation to your needs. You can easily:
- Specify Your Accounts: Use your own Facebook credentials and set any email address as the recipient for the daily digest.
- Create a Custom Watchlist: Provide a list of friends whose posts you want to follow closely. The automation will focus its efforts on checking their profiles.
- Control the Content: Decide whether you want to include posts from your main news feed or focus solely on your friends list. You can also choose to automatically filter out ads and sponsored posts.
- Customize the Report: Change the format, tone, and content of the final email digest to match your preferences.
- Change Notification Channel: While it defaults to Gmail, you can have the final report sent to a different destination, such as a Slack channel.
