Save a random Wikipedia article to Feedly daily
How this automation works
Automatically share new Feedly articles from a selected category to a Slack channel and send their links via Webhooks. This Applet runs whenever a new article appears in your specified Feedly category, posting its title and image to Slack while sending its URL in a web request. It’s ideal for teams who track updates or curate content across platforms. Note: This requires a reachable webhook endpoint (URL).
