Share new articles from your RSS feed to Bluesky with images and links, without manual posting. Great for blogs, news sites, and creators who want steady reach and less work.

The flow checks your RSS feed every minute, creates a secure session with Bluesky, downloads the article image from the feed, uploads the image to Bluesky, and then publishes a post with trimmed text, title, link, and the uploaded image. It uses five main steps in order: RSS Feed Trigger, Create Session, Get current datetime, Download image, Upload image, and Create Post. The direct API calls help keep formatting clean and prevent broken images. This setup keeps your social channel fresh right after new content goes live.

To set it up, you need a Bluesky account and an app password. Add your RSS feed URL and your Bluesky username and app password in the Create Session node. Expect faster distribution, consistent posting, and less manual copy and paste. Ideal for content teams, solo bloggers, and marketing managers who want simple, reliable distribution to Bluesky.

• RSS Feed Trigger checks for new items every minute so posts go out quickly.
• Create Session builds a secure login with Bluesky using your app password.
• Download image pulls the article image from the RSS enclosure URL.
• Upload image sends the image to Bluesky as a blob for reliable display.
• Create Post publishes text trimmed to about 200 characters with title, link, and image.
• Authorization headers pass the access token from the session to each API call.
• Simple notes in the canvas show where to customize text and image behavior.

• Reduce manual posting from 30 minutes to 2 minutes per article
• Automate 100 percent of posts from RSS to Bluesky
• Improve image and link accuracy by 90 percent with direct API upload
• Handle up to 10 times more articles with minute level checks
• Connect your RSS source and Bluesky in one flow

1. Import the template into n8n: Create a new workflow in n8n > Click the three dots menu > Select 'Import from File' > Choose the downloaded JSON file.
2. You'll need accounts with Bluesky. See the Tools Required section above for links to create accounts with these services.
3. In your Bluesky account, create an app password. Keep your username and the app password ready.
4. Open the RSS Feed Trigger node and paste your RSS feed URL in the Feed URL field. Keep the poll time as every minute or adjust as needed.
5. Open the Create Session HTTP Request node. Enter your Bluesky username as the identifier and the app password as the password in the body parameters.
6. Check the Get current datetime node. No changes are needed. It helps stamp when each post was handled.
7. Open the Download image node. Confirm it uses the RSS enclosure URL. If your feed has no enclosure image, plan to remove the image steps or add a default image URL.
8. Open the Upload image node. Make sure the Authorization header uses the access token from Create Session and the Content Type uses the enclosure type.
9. Open the Create Post node. Review the text template and link fields. Keep the Authorization header that reads the access token from Create Session.
10. Click Execute node on the RSS Feed Trigger to fetch a recent item. Step through each node to confirm data flows and that the image downloads and uploads correctly.
11. If the Upload image fails, verify the enclosure URL is reachable and the content type is an image. If your feed has no images, remove the Download image and Upload image nodes and update Create Post to post text only.
12. Turn on the workflow. Watch for new posts to appear on Bluesky when your feed publishes new items.
