ActionBufferUpdated September 2026

What posts has Buffer sent?

Short answer: You can list sent updates in Buffer by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Buffer List Sent Updates action to a workflow, map its 2 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about List Sent Updates.

What does the List Sent Updates action do in Buffer?

Returns the sent-update history for a profile with timestamps and engagement counts. Useful for weekly performance digests ("which posts got the most engagement this week?") and for failure-detection workflows ("did anything fail to send?").

What inputs does List Sent Updates require?

Required: Profile ID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Buffer returns an error?

The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Buffer returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.

Does List Sent Updates support batch operations?

Run List Sent Updates inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Buffer's rate limits.
