Here are four example Zapier workflows that leverage the available Seafile actions and triggers, providing value for users:

  1. Save email attachments to Seafile
    Trigger: New E-Mail with Attachment
    Action: Upload File to Seafile
    Value: Automatically save file attachments to Seafile to keep a Backup

  2. Automatic File Backup
    Trigger: New or Updated File in Dropbox
    Action: Upload File to Seafile
    Value: Automatically backs up important files from Dropbox to Seafile, ensuring data redundancy and easy access across platforms.

  3. Tagged File
    Trigger: New Tagged File in Seafile
    Action: Move File in Seafile to a specific folder
    Value: Automatically organizes files into specific folders based on their tags, maintaining a clean and structured file system.

  4. Collaborative Document Workflow
    Trigger: New Invoice in a specific Seafile folder
    Actions: Create Download Link and send Email (via Gmail) with the shared link to the customer.
    Value: Streamlines collaboration by automatically sharing new documents with team members or customers.

For sure there are many more possible workflows, that you could build with Zapier. Have fun…

It’s great but it would be much better if it were available on Make.com, Zappier is far too expensive.

Thanks for your feedback.

Platforms

In my opinion, these are the three decisive platforms:

Status

  • Zapier (Beta Version) is now available.
  • I have already created a n8n Community Node.
  • I already started to work on a Make.com Integration shortly.

Great, these are the best-known and most recognized tools. I’ve already set up an alert when a new file is added that sends a message to a discord.

Do you think it would be possible to have a single alert when several files are added instead of having one per file, as this consumes a lot of operations if several files are added.

I’m looking forward to integration with Make.com.

Update : I didn’t know that n8n could be self-hosted so I will try your integration with n8n

Hey,
it is not the task of a zapier trigger to merge multiple trigger events into one action. With n8n you could use “merge”. With Zapier, I would recommend, that you write the trigger events into a zapier table or “SeaTable” and then have another zap to inform about new files…
