Quick overview
Get a Slack alert when target LinkedIn accounts post. Periodix Actions pulls recent posts from companies and people in a Google Sheet, skips seen posts, and Claude summarizes each with a comment angle and DM opener. One node instead of an Apify post scraper plus cookies.
How it works
- Every morning at 8:00 the workflow reads your target accounts from the Accounts tab and the posts you have already seen from the Posts tab.
- For each account without a stored author ID, Periodix resolves it once (Get Company Profile for company pages, Get Profile for people) and writes it back to the sheet, so later runs skip this step.
- Get User Posts pulls the latest posts for each account.
- New posts are kept only if they were not seen before, are not reposts (optional), and are newer than your age limit.
- Claude Haiku summarizes each new post, rates how relevant it is to what you sell, and suggests a comment angle and a DM opener.
- The post and the AI insight are saved to the Posts tab, and a Slack alert goes to your channel.
Setup
- Install the Periodix LinkedIn node (@periodix/n8n-nodes-actions) and connect your Periodix Actions API key. Start a 3-day free trial at actions.periodix.net.

- Add your target company pages and people to the Accounts tab.
- Connect Google Sheets, Anthropic, and Slack credentials, and choose your Slack channel.
- Edit Monitor Config: what_we_sell, posts_per_account, max_age_days, include_reposts.
Requirements
