How this automation works
Create an unpublished draft episode in Spreaker with a single button press. When Button press occurs, this Applet creates a new draft episode on the Spreaker podcast you choose. It's useful for podcasters who want to capture ideas or start episodes on the go using Spreaker and the IFTTT Button widget. Note: Install the IFTTT app and add the widget to your home screen.
