In detail

What it does and what it's for

This Botize integration allows you to automate tasks by detecting new check-ins from your friends in specific Foursquare categories. By setting up this trigger, you'll receive detailed information about the venue, the friend who checked in, the date and time, comments, address, URL, city, geographic coordinates, total number of check-ins, users, and recommendations, as well as photos and a map image of the venue.


This functionality is ideal for keeping track of your friends' activities on Foursquare and sharing their experiences in real-time. You can use this information to create automations that, for example, share your friends' check-ins in a Telegram group, keeping everyone informed about their visits and discoveries in different categories of places.

How it works

How it fits in an automated task

A Botize task pairs a trigger with one or more actions. This piece is one of them.

This is the trigger

Every time this event happens, the task kicks off on its own. You don't have to do anything.

Add one or more actions

What should happen next, in this app or in any of the 200+ connectable apps.

Turn it on and forget it

The task runs on its own from then on. If something's off, tweak it or we'll help you.
