With this workflow, you can automate the integration between Discord and Mastodon and automatically create a Status on Mastodon whenever a specific message is sent. This streamlines communication with your community, allowing you to focus on more important tasks.

■Who This Template Is For

• Anyone who manages communities on both Discord and Mastodon and finds information sharing time-consuming
• Anyone who wants to automatically post important Discord announcements to Mastodon in a timely manner
• Anyone who wants to eliminate the need to manually update multiple social media platforms and focus on core tasks

■Benefits of Using This Template

• Posts to Mastodon are completed automatically whenever you send a message to a specific Discord channel, reducing the time spent manually reposting content
• By eliminating manual posting, you can prevent human errors such as missed posts and transcription mistakes, ensuring reliable information sharing

■Workflow

1. First, connect Discord and Mastodon with Yoom
2. Next, select Discord as the trigger and set the action to “When a message is sent in a channel”
3. Then, configure the branching feature in an operation so that subsequent actions run only when specific conditions are met
4. Finally, set the Mastodon “Create Status” action in an operation and post the message content retrieved from Discord

※“Trigger”: An action that starts the flow. “Operation”: An action that processes data within the flow after the trigger runs

■Customization Options

• Set your preferred branching conditions, such as posting only messages that contain specific keywords to Mastodon
• When configuring the Mastodon post, combine values retrieved by the Discord trigger, such as the message body, with fixed hashtags or other content to create a post that meets your needs
