HootSuite Channel doesn't appear in my list in IFTTT account

Question

My company where I work , has already a profile in Facebook that it's to share post , photos, events, news and so on. Now they want to sync Facebook post to Google+. The sync must be done from Facebook to Google+( because the person that manages the page, is used to Facebook). As we know Google+ does not have an API to write , its API is readonly. So I took a reading and I find out that there is an option using Buffer, IFTTT and HootSuite considering this article:

The problem is in my list of trigger channel I cannot find anything about hootsuite. Can anybody help how can I configure the HootSuite, or another way how to achieve this.

Answer 1

First , get a bufferapp account. bufferapp.com. Then, sign in to gmail, or google accounts at gmail.com. GO back to bufferapp, and add Google+ into your account, and give it permission when asked.

Then go ifttt.com , set up account. Log in , select channels. Add bufferapp. Then ADD social media of choice , You can use GOOGLE+, Facebook, tumblr, twitter, etc.. there is a bunch . Add Soical media of choice, or even add an RSS feed to ifttt.com ..

Now go to my recipes (yes recipes) .. then create a new recipe ..pick GOOGLE+ or whatever, then tell it what you want , then pick bufferapp and tell it what you want..

You can also browse recipes on ifttt.com , and there you can lookup bufferapp ones .. th right one will show up
