Frequently Asked Questions about Buffer + Tumblr integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Buffer and Tumblr
How do I integrate Buffer with Tumblr using our platform?
To integrate Buffer with Tumblr, you need to create a Zap that connects Buffer as the trigger app and Tumblr as the action app. You can set it up so that whenever you have a new post scheduled in Buffer, it is automatically published on your Tumblr account.
What triggers are available for Tumblr in the integration process?
For Tumblr, typical triggers include 'New Post,' 'Blog Follow,' and 'Post Like.' These can be used to start automated workflows involving other apps.
Can I directly schedule posts on Tumblr through our system without using Buffer?
While our platform primarily facilitates interactions between different applications like scheduling through Buffer, direct scheduling onto Tumblr outside of this integration isn't supported at this time.
What actions can be performed on Tumblr when integrating with Buffer?
Common actions include creating a text post, photo post, quote post, link post, chat post, or audio and video posts on your designated Tumblr blog based on content scheduled in Buffer.
Are there limitations to the type of content that can be posted from Buffer to Tumblr?
Currently, you can post various types of content like text, photos, quotes, links, chats, audio, and videos. However, ensure that any media adheres to Tumblr's community guidelines and size limitations.
How often does our system check for new posts scheduled in Buffer for publication on Tumblr?
Our system typically checks for new activities every 5 to 15 minutes. This means there might be slight delays between scheduling a post in Buffer and its appearance on your Tumblr blog.
Is it possible to customize how posts appear when published from Buffer to Tumblr?
Yes, it's possible to customize aspects like tags or add additional media elements specific to each type of content before they get published through the integration process.
