Has anyone successfully managed to get Ghost posts to be shared automatically with Bluesky?
Bluesky doesn’t have a Zapier integration, so there is no “plug and play” option and it will require some coding.
The base for it would be the Bluesky API: Posting via the Bluesky API | AT Protocol
Technically, you could use the Code by Zapier integration to stitch that together. For reference, somebody wrote a tutorial on how to do it with Make, which you could use as inspiration: Connect Bluesky and MAKE.com for new posts - Jans Weblog

Interesting. Do you find Bluesky able to generate traffic?
Thanks, I’ll take a look and have a stab at it!

Don’t know, as we have only just set it up, but we brought over a large portion of our Twitter and Mastodon followers, so there are people there – like with Mastodon, we want to automate everything about it. Twitter/FB/Instagram still dominate traffic.

Figured out posting to Blue Sky with Make, it’s messy - the API does not pull image URL’s, only local assets, Make has local storage module available which saves the day.
Basically
- Pull Feature or Twitter Image from Ghost to local storage
- Resolve user with BlueSky
- Create a session
- Push the image to BlueSky, generates a blob
- Split up the image-blob json
- Post to Blue Sky
… and looks good…
