Multi Post Trigger

The Multi Post Trigger works just like the New Post Trigger, but monitors multiple saved searches at once. Use it when you want a single workflow to handle posts from several different searches.


When to Use It

  • Monitor several saved searches with one workflow instead of creating duplicates

  • Consolidate brand monitoring, competitor tracking, and keyword alerts into a single pipeline

  • Simplify workflow management when the same processing logic applies to multiple searches


How to Set It Up

  1. Create a new workflow and select Multi Post Trigger as your trigger node

  2. Select two or more saved searches from the dropdown

  3. Save the trigger. It will fire whenever any of the selected searches find new posts

Note: Each post is processed individually. If multiple searches find the same post, it will only trigger once.

{{ !ref($.trigger.outputs.text) }}{{ !ref($.trigger.outputs.authorUrl) }}{{ !ref($.trigger.outputs.likes) }}{{ !ref($.trigger.outputs.comments) }}{{ !ref($.trigger.outputs.postUrl) }}{{ !ref($.trigger.outputs.datePosted) }}{{ !ref($.trigger.outputs.source) }}

Example Workflow


Pro tip: Use the Multi Post Trigger instead of duplicating workflows. One workflow with multiple searches is easier to maintain and uses fewer credits than running several identical workflows.
