What you will build

In this tutorial, we will set up a Zapier automated workflow so that a new image is generated with each new follower count.

Set up a new zap trigger

Open up Zapier.

In Zapier, create a new Zap and for the app and trigger choose Twitter/New follower of me :

Pass data to the template

When Zapier is able to connect successfully to Supportivekoala, you should see a dropdown of all your project's templates. Select a template, you can choose any templates in supportivekoala's template library or create your own and the template details will load:

As you can see the background image and text sections are optional so, you can just simply leave them blank. But you have to select follower name in the Twitter handler section. Just click on continue and you'll just click on Test & Continue before the last step

Lastly, make sure that you turn on your zap so, every time you have a new follower it will automatically post a thank you for following card on Twitter.
