Save new photos you're tagged in on Facebook to Dropbox
How this automation works
Automatically save the main image from each new Feedly article in a chosen category to Dropbox. This runs whenever a new article appears, downloading the image file and adding it to your selected folder for organized access later. Perfect for keeping a visual archive of the articles you follow or for collecting reference images from your favorite feeds.
