How Knit builds this workflow
The Agent researches both APIs and wires the trigger on one side to the action on the other — no pre-built connector required. Here is the vocabulary it has to work with.

Common questions
Can Knit build “Collect public post data” between Diffbot and Buffer?
Yes — describe it in the box above and Knit's Integrations Agent researches Diffbot and Buffer's public API docs (or your own uploaded docs) and builds a working workflow, whether or not either app already has a pre-built connector.
How long does it take to build?
Minutes to a first working version, not weeks — you test it against real data before it goes anywhere near production.
Why connect a web scraper to social media?
Diffbot can watch sources such as blogs, product pages or news. Using its results in Buffer lets you share updates quickly without checking each source by hand.
Should scraped content be posted automatically?
Usually it is better to create a draft or queue item in Buffer for review, rather than publishing scraped content directly.
