Very nice - this is what also wished for after starting the ZEIT subscription. I forked this one and gave it try, unfortunately not successful yet, keep trying.

Hey, thanks for the feedback! As discussed in this issue a tiny code change had to be applied to work around the temporary popup ad. Thanks to your suggestion we seem to have fixed the issue and today the sync was again successful!

Yes, i noticed it ran fine for me as well.
I already have an idea for another improvement: I don't like to receive "Run failed" notifications after the workflow has successfully uploaded the epub once. Can't we either make the workflow stop in this case or handle the "file already exists" condition different from "real" errors?

[fgebhart]

Sounds like a good idea! This way we could set up (email) notifications for the "Periodic Sync" workflow and would only be notified in case of any unforeseen issue. Would you mind opening a dedicated issue for that enhancement?

I can open an issue but i am not sure how i can contribute here with code.

[fgebhart]

There is no strict need to contribute with code. Opening an issue helps with coordinating such requests in general. Contributing your idea and potential discussions should be more than sufficient in this case.
