This automation scenario allows you to connect Flickr and Buffer
It can be build using Ifttt, a no-code workflow automation tool. Ifttt allows you to create automated bots using a simple drag-and-drop interface for non-technical users. This is a ready-made scenario, but it can be customized by adding more apps, actions, filters or branches.

Flickr and Buffer can also be integrated using automation tools other than ifttt:
When this trigger fires in Flickr
This Trigger fires every time you upload a new public photo to your Flickr photostream.
Then this action happens in Buffer
This Action will add a photo to Buffer. If your Buffer is full then the post will be skipped.
This guide contains information on how to set up an automatic workflow that allows to Flicker Image to BuffferApp for Distribution.

Create IFTTT account.
Create IFTTT account if you don't have one.
Connect Flickr to IFTTT.
Give IFTTT access to your Flickr account, using Flickr credentials.

Then set up an Action for Buffer
Choose this action: Add photo to Buffer (This Action will add a photo to Buffer. If your Buffer is full then the post will be skipped.).
Part III
Finally, we need to test this automation and publish it.
Customize data flow
Configure the data that is exchanged between Flickr and Buffer.
Test the workflow and turn it on for production use
Test your scenario and publish to production. Now you have an automatic workflow, that will Flicker Image to BuffferApp for Distribution!
