Never let an event go unpromoted. This workflow monitors your Google Calendar, generates branded promotional graphics, and schedules a staggered social media countdown across LinkedIn, Twitter/X, and Facebook.


🎯 What This Workflow Does

This template automates the full lifecycle of event promotion—from creation to multi-platform publishing.


📅 Step 1 — Calendar Trigger & Intelligence

  • Instant Trigger: Fires when a new event is created in Google Calendar
  • Data Enrichment: Extracts title, location, and formatted date/time
  • Safety Gate: Skips events starting in less than 2 hours

🖼️ Step 2 — Programmatic Design & CDN Hosting

  • Dynamic Graphic Creation: Uses Edit Image node to overlay event details on a banner
  • CDN Hosting: Uploads the image via UploadToURL to generate a public URL
  • Schedule Calculation: Sets post timings at 48h, 24h, and 1h before the event

🔁 Step 3 — Staggered Countdown & AI Copy

  • Loop Execution: Iterates through each scheduled post time
  • Smart Wait: Delays execution until the exact posting time
  • AI Captions: Generates time-based captions using OpenAI

📊 Step 4 — Audit Logging & Admin Alerts

  • Google Sheets Log: Stores platform status and image URLs for each post
  • Telegram Alerts: Sends a final campaign summary to the admin

✨ Key Features

  • Automated Graphic Design: Creates visuals for every event
  • Persistent Wait Logic: Handles long delays within a single workflow
