Automate Social Media Updates to Telegram Instantly
Deliver 100% of new social media content to Telegram channels instantly, eliminating manual posting efforts and ensuring a duplicate-free experience.
Manually monitoring and sharing social media updates from platforms like Weibo and Instagram to Telegram is time-consuming and prone to duplicate posts. This workflow automatically fetches new content from specified RSS feeds, filters out duplicates, and delivers posts, including images, directly to your Telegram channels.

Social Media RSS to Telegram Automation
This n8n workflow is designed for anyone looking to streamline their social media content distribution by automatically pushing updates from RSS feeds to Telegram channels. It's particularly useful for staying updated on specific profiles without constant manual checking and ensures your Telegram audience receives fresh content without duplicates.
Key Features
- Automated RSS Feed Monitoring: Continuously monitors Weibo and Instagram feeds (via RSSHub) for new posts.
- Duplicate Post Prevention: Utilizes n8n's static workflow data to ensure only new, unique posts are delivered to Telegram.
- Intelligent Image Handling: Automatically extracts images from content and sends them as photos to Telegram, falling back to text for image-less posts.
- Real-time Telegram Notifications: Delivers updates to specified Telegram channels instantly upon detection.
How It Works
This workflow operates on a scheduled basis (e.g., every minute) or can be triggered manually. It starts by fetching new posts from the configured Weibo and Instagram RSS feeds. Each new item is processed individually. A Function node checks if the post's link has been seen before using static workflow data; if it's a new link, it proceeds. Another Function node then parses the post content to extract any image URLs. An If node evaluates the presence and count of images. If a single image is found, it sends a photo message to Telegram with the image and a content snippet. Otherwise (multiple or no images), it sends a text message containing the content snippet and the post's link. This ensures that your Telegram channels receive timely, relevant, and unique updates without manual intervention.
