Automate LinkedIn Post Summaries to Slack with AI & Apify

This n8n workflow automates turning LinkedIn noise into actionable weekly Slack insights. It pulls fresh posts from specified profiles using Apify, cleans and formats them, then leverages OpenAI to condense each into 2-3 concise bullets (under 15 words), ensuring the total digest stays under 500 words. Posts are organized by author and delivered neatly to your Slack channel every Sunday morning, with original links in thread replies.

The process starts with reading LinkedIn profile URLs from a Google Sheet watchlist. Apify's LinkedIn scraper fetches up to 10 posts per profile from the past 7 days. Custom code nodes strip out hashtags, broken links, and formatting issues. OpenAI then generates summaries, grouping content intelligently. Finally, Slack integration posts the digest directly, saving hours of manual scrolling.

Ideal for marketing teams, sales pros, or executives tracking industry leaders without endless feeds. Benefits include time savings (2 minutes vs. hours), organized insights by author, and customizable scheduling. Pre-requirements: Google Sheets API, Apify token, OpenAI key, Slack bot token. Customize cron for frequency, adjust word limits, or add profiles easily.
