Create new wordpress posts with a featured Image with Airtable

This workflow is aimed to create new posts in wordpress automatically from an airtable dashboard.
When creating content in bulk, we can save time by automating how we can post and publish this content.

Usage
Get the content from Airtable. Since we have this as a markdown, we will have to convert it to a html format to make it easier to publish and manage on WordPress
Upload the blog post with the content, title and all other relevant information needed for an optimized blog
Once the post is posted, we need to upload the image and set it as a features image for the blogs

Happy productivity

Popular Airtable and HTTP Request workflows

Deduplicate Scraping AI Grants for Eligibility using AI

This n8n template scrapes a list of AI grants from grants.gov and qualifies them using AI; determining interest and eligibility for the business. It then sends an email alert of interesting items to team members in an email. The template also shows how you can use the "Remove Duplicates" node to simplify deduplication of external listings without the need to manage this yourself. Not particularly interested in AI Grants? This template works for other tender websites as long as you're able to scrape them. How it works A scheduled trigger is set to fetch a list of AI grants listed on the grants.gov website in the past day. A Remove Duplicates node is used to track Grant IDs to filter out those already processed by the workflow. New grants are summarized and analysed by AI nodes to determine eligibility and interest which is then saved to an Airtable database. Another scheduled trigger starts a little later than the first to collect and summarize the new grants The results are then compiled into an email template using the HTML node, in the form of a newsletter designed to alert and brief team members of new AI grants. This email is then sent to a list of subscribers using the gmail node. How to use Make a copy of sample Airtable here: https://airtable.com/appiNoPRvhJxz9crl/shrRdP6zstgsxjDKL The filters for fetching the grants is currently set to the "AI" category. Feel free to change this to include more categories. Not interested in grants, this template can works for other sources of leads just change the endpoint and how you're defining the item ID to track. Requirements Airtable for database OpenAI for LLM Note: These are not hard requirements and can be exchanged for services available to you. customising the workflow "Eligibility" criteria at this stage may be better served by identifying hard blockers instead ie. certifications, geographical considerations or certain legal checks. Be sure to mention any hard blockers into the Eligibility prompt. Not particularly interested in AI prompts? This template works for other tender websites as long as you're able to scrape them.

Generate n8n Forms from Airtable and BaseRow Tables

This n8n template showcases a cool feature of n8n Forms where the form itself can be defined dynamically using the form fields schema. It may be debateable how useful this template actually is since both Airtable and Baserow provide form interfaces already but still a great exercise and demonstration if ever the use-case comes around. How it works A form trigger is used to dynamically select a database/table from which to build the n8n form from. the table's schema is imported into the workflow and using the code node, is converted into the n8n form fields schema. This let's us dynamically build the fields in our n8n form when we choose to define the form using the JSON option. Once the n8n form submits, we convert the values back into our table's API schema so that we can create a new row. Note any files/attachments fields are removed as they need to be handled separately. Files are processed separately as they may first need to be stored. Once complete, the reference is saved into the newly created row. Check out the example Airtable here - https://airtable.com/appfP15Xd0aVZR9xV/shrGFgXLyQ4Jg58SU How to use The n8n form is autogenerated which means you only need provide access to the table. Using this approach, this template can be reused for any number of Airtable and/or Baserow tables. Requirements You'll need either an Airtable account or a Baserow account to use this template. Accessible n8n instance to your users Customising this workflow Not using either Airtable or Baserow? Theoretically any datastore which provides a fields schema can be used with this template. If you're feeling creative, split the table into multiple forms for a better user experience.

Create LinkedIn Contributions with AI and Notify Users On Slack

This workflow automates the process of gathering LinkedIn advice articles, extracting their content, and generating unique contributions for each article using an AI model. The contributions are then posted to a Slack channel and a NocoDB database for record-keeping. The workflow is triggered weekly to ensure new articles are continuously collected and responded to. Who is this for? This workflow is designed for professionals, marketers, and content creators looking to boost their LinkedIn presence by regularly engaging with LinkedIn advice articles. It’s especially useful for those who want to be seen as a "thought leader" or "top voice" in their niche by contributing relevant and unique advice to trending topics. What problem is this workflow solving? Manually searching for relevant LinkedIn articles, reading through them, and crafting thoughtful contributions can be time-consuming. This workflow solves that by automating the process of finding new articles, extracting key content, and generating AI-powered contributions. It helps users stay consistently active on LinkedIn, contributing value to trending discussions. What this workflow does Triggers Weekly: The workflow is set to run every Monday at 8:00 AM. Search Google for LinkedIn Advice Articles: Uses a predefined Google search URL to find the latest LinkedIn advice articles based on the user's area of expertise. Extract LinkedIn Article Links: A code node extracts all LinkedIn advice article links from the search results. Retrieve Article Content: For each article link, the workflow retrieves the HTML content and extracts the article title, topics, and existing contributions. Generate AI-Powered Contributions: The workflow sends the extracted article content to an AI model, which generates unique, helpful advice for each topic within the article. Post to Slack & NocoDB: The AI-generated contributions, along with the article links, are posted to a designated Slack channel and stored in a NocoDB database for future reference. Setup Google Search URL: Update the Google search URL with the relevant LinkedIn advice query for your field (e.g., "site:linkedin.com/advice 'marketing automation'"). Slack Integration: Connect your Slack account and specify the Slack channel where you want the contributions to be posted. NocoDB Integration: Set up your NocoDB project to store the generated contributions along with the article titles and links. How to customize this workflow Change Search Terms**: Modify the Google search URL to focus on a different LinkedIn topic or expertise area. Adjust Trigger Frequency**: The workflow is set to run weekly, but you can adjust the frequency by changing the schedule trigger. Enhance Contribution Quality**: Customize the AI model's prompt to generate contributions that align with your brand voice or content strategy. Workflow Summary This workflow helps users maintain a consistent presence on LinkedIn by automating the discovery of new advice articles and generating unique contributions using AI. It is ideal for professionals who want to engage with LinkedIn content regularly without spending too much time manually searching and drafting responses.

Scale Deal Flow with a Pitch Deck AI Vision, Chatbot and QDrant Vector Store

Are you a popular tech startup accelerator (named after a particular higher order function) overwhelmed with 1000s of pitch decks on a daily basis? Wish you could filter through them quickly using AI but the decks are unparseable through conventional means? Then you're in luck! This n8n template uses Multimodal LLMs to parse and extract valuable data from even the most overly designed pitch decks in quick fashion. Not only that, it'll also create the foundations of a RAG chatbot at the end so you or your colleagues can drill down into the details if needed. With this template, you'll scale your capacity to find interesting companies you'd otherwise miss! Requires n8n v1.62.1+ How It Works Airtable is used as the pitch deck database and PDF decks are downloaded from it. An AI Vision model is used to transcribe each page of the pitch deck into markdown. An Information Extractor is used to generate a report from the transcribed markdown and update required information back into pitch deck database. The transcribed markdown is also uploaded to a vector store to build an AI chatbot which can be used to ask questions on the pitch deck. Check out the sample Airtable here: https://airtable.com/appCkqc2jc3MoVqDO/shrS21vGqlnqzzNUc How To Use This template depends on the availability of the Airtable - make a duplicate of the airtable (link) and its columns before running the workflow. When a new pitchdeck is received, enter the company name into the Name column and upload the pdf into the File column. Leave all other columns blank. If you have the Airtable trigger active, the execution should start immediately once the file is uploaded. Otherwise, click the manual test trigger to start the workflow. When manually triggered, all "new" pitch decks will be handled by the workflow as separate executions. Requirements OpenAI for LLM Airtable For Database and Interface Qdrant for Vector Store Customising This Workflow Extend this starter template by adding more AI agents to validate claims made in the pitch deck eg. Linkedin Profiles, Page visits, Reviews etc.

Turn Emails into AI-Enhanced Tasks in Notion (Multi-User Support) with Gmail, Airtable and Softr

Purpose This workflow automatically creates Tasks from forwarded Emails, similar to Asana, but better. Emails are processed by AI and converted to rather actionable task. In addition this workflow is build in a way, that multiple users can share this single process by setting up their individual configuration through a user friendly portal (internal tool) instead of the need to manage their own workflows. Demo How it works One Gmail account is used to process inbound mails from different users. A custom web portal enables users to define “routes”. Thats where the mapping between an automatically generated Gmail Alias and a Notion Database URL, including the personal API Token, happens. Using a Gmail Trigger, new entries are split by the Email Alias, so the corresponding route can be retrieved from the Database connected to the portal. Every Email then gets processed by AI to get generate an actionable task and get a short summary of the original Email as well as some metadata. Based on a predefined structure a new Page is created in the corresponding Notion Database. Finally the Email is marked as “processed” in Gmail. If an error happens, the route gets paused for a possible overflow and the user gets notified by Email. Setup Create a new Google account (alternatively you can use an existing one and set up rules to keep your inbox organized) Create two Labels in Gmail: “Processed” and “Error” Clone this Softr template including the Airtable dataset and publish the application Clone this workflow and choose credentials (Gmail, Airtable) Follow the additional instructions provided within the workflow notes Enable the workflow, so it runs automatically in the background How to use Open published Softr application Register as a new user Create a new route containing the Notion API key and the Notion Database URL Expand the new entry to copy the Email address Save the address as a new contact in your Email provider of choice Forward an Email to it and watch how it gets converted to an actionable task Disclamer Airtable was chosen, so you can setup this template fairly quickly. It is advised to replace the persistence by something you own, like a self hosted SQL server, since we are dealing with sensitive information of multiple users This solution is only meant for building internal tools, unless you own an embed license for n8n.

Enrich Property Inventory Survey with Image Recognition and AI Agent

This n8n workflow assists property managers and surveyors by reducing the time and effort it takes to complete property inventory surveys. In such surveys, articles and goods within a property may need to be captured and reported as a matter of record. This can take a sizable amount of time if the property or number of items is big enough. Our solution is to delegate this task to a capable AI Agent who can identify and fill out the details of each item automatically. How it works An AirTable Base is used to capture just the image of an item within the property Our workflow monitoring this AirTable Base sends the photo to an AI image recognition model to describe the item for purpose of identification. Our AI agent uses this description and the help of Google's reverse image search in an attempt to find an online product page for the item. If found, the product page is scraped for the item's specifications which are then used to fill out the rest of the details of the item in our Airtable. Requirements Airtable for capturing photos and product information OpenAI account to for image recognition service and AI for agent SerpAPI account for google reverse image search. Firecrawl.dev account for webspacing. Customising this workflow Try building an internal inventory database to query and integrate into the workflow. This could save on costs by avoiding fetching new each time for common items.
