Automated Oversharing

Automated Oversharing is a Python-based project that integrates Flask with Tines to streamline blog post sharing on LinkedIn and X (formerly Twitter). Developed as companion content for the article Using Tines to Broadcast Your Half-Baked Blog, this repo provides a self-contained Flask example and a complete Tines story to automate the summarization and social sharing of blog content.

Overview

This repository includes:

• Flask: Acts as a webhook provider to notify Tines when a new blog post is published.
• Blog Manager: Complete, ready-to-import Tines story. Uses OpenAI for automatic post summarization and API integrations to share to social media platforms.

How It Works

1. Trigger: Flask sends post details (title, content, tags) to Tines via a webhook whenever a new blog post is published.
2. Summarization: Tines uses OpenAI to generate a concise summary of the post.
3. Social Media Sharing: Tines posts the summary and a link to LinkedIn and X.
