Yes, save for web (legacy) is compatible with PhotoShop actions, which works like a script.


Open a typical image you would want to perform the action on.
Create a new action (in the actions panel) titled to your taste, something like '1080px save for web'
Open the image size dialog and change the width to 1080px
Click ok
Now select Save for web (legacy) and adjust jpeg quality to preference.
Click save and choose the folder you want the images to appear in.
Close the image and answer no to saving it.
Stop the action with the stop button in the actions panel.


You now have an action ready to perform on a group of images. To use it, place the images together in a folder you can find in PhotoShop and do the following:


Open File -> Automate -> Batch...
In the dialog that opens, you can change Action to the title of your just created action.
Now choose the folder of images as Source
Click ok and all of the images in your source folder should be resized to 1080px and saved out as jpegs.


You can add steps to this action if needed but that should roughly show you what's needed to automate performing actions on batch images in PhotoShop.
