### What are you trying to achieve? How do I automate fb posts that use a different image in a Google drive folder everytime it automatically posts? What format is best for the images (if that maters). It’s my first time using [make.com](http://make.com) So please explain things step-by-step in a detailed simple way. Thanks in advance. ### Steps taken so far I have not taken any steps ---

Welcome to Make, @Rob4; In getting started, think about the steps you would take to associate an image with the post. Then we translate those to steps in a Make scenario. Once you can share those steps here, we can proceed. For example, conceptually, given a Facebook post where any random image suffices, I would read my Google Drive, shuffle the results, then attach the image. However, as you suspect, things aren’t that simple. Problems: - Google Drive probably updates, so shuffling results each times is operationally consuming. - We don’t want to repeat image use, so we must be able to recall what we’ve used. So again, think about how you as a person would solve the problem, then write them down for us to work through from very simple to eventually robust. 🍀 ---

Welcome to the Make community! While it is certainly possible, I would suggest completing the **Make Academy** and learn ths basics before jumping into building such a complicated scenario. If you need **specific assistance** when you are **building a scenario** it’s easier to help you then. Otherwise, you can also **hire a professional** by posting a request in the #Hire a Pro category. Here are some useful links and guides you can use to learn more on how to use the Make platform, apps, and app modules. I found these useful when I was learning Make, and hope they might benefit you too — ### Getting Started - [Help Centre](https://www.make.com/en/help) | [Tutorials](https://www.make.com/en/help/tutorials.html) – Make “Manual” - [Make Academy](https://academy.make.com) – Basics 101: Learn Make and get certified ### Help Centre Basics - [Mapping](https://www.make.com/en/help/mapping/mapping) – What is mapping?
