    • Image URL: The reference image URL.
    • Width & Height: Image size is set to 1024x1024.

3. Code (Base64 Conversion)

• Type: n8n-nodes-base.code
• Description: This node processes the base64-encoded image data returned from the API. It decodes and formats the image to be uploaded to Google Drive.
  • Output: Converts the base64 string into a binary JPEG file.

4. Upload Image to Google Drive

• Type: n8n-nodes-base.googleDrive
• Description: Uploads the generated image to Google Drive, storing it in a designated folder.
  • Authentication: Google Service Account.
  • File Name: The image file name is dynamically set from the previous node.

5. Log Details to Google Sheets

• Type: n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets
• Description: This node logs the Prompt, Generated Image, and Generation Date into a Google Sheets document for tracking and auditing purposes.
  • Columns Mapped:
    • Prompt: The user’s input text.
    • Image: The name of the generated image file.
    • Generated Date: Date and time of image generation.

Flow Summary

1. User Submits Form: Triggered when the form with the prompt and image URL is submitted.
2. Image Generation: The data is sent to the Sora GPT Image API from RapidAPI to generate the image.
3. Image Processing: The generated image (base64 format) is decoded and saved as a file.
4. Google Drive Upload: The image is uploaded to Google Drive for storage.
5. Google Sheets Logging: All relevant details (Prompt, Image, Date) are saved in Google Sheets.

Benefits

• Automated Image Creation: Quickly generate images using AI based on a simple prompt and reference image via RapidAPI.
• Efficient Workflow: The entire process from form submission to image generation and storage is automated, saving time and reducing manual work.
• Centralized Storage: Generated images are stored in Google Drive, ensuring easy access and organization.
• Audit Trail: The details of each generated image are logged in Google Sheets, making it easy to track, review, and manage past creations.
• Scalable and Reusable: Can be adapted to multiple use cases, such as creative design, marketing materials, or social media content generation.

Problems Solved

• Manual Image Editing: Eliminates the need for manual image manipulation and creation, allowing for automatic generation based on user inputs.
• Disorganized File Storage: With automatic uploads to Google Drive, the images are stored in a centralized and organized manner.
• Lack of Record-Keeping: By logging image generation details in Google Sheets, there's always a record of past creations, improving tracking and management.
• Time-Consuming Processes: The automation drastically reduces the time spent on manual tasks, allowing users to focus on other aspects of their work or creative processes.

This flow simplifies the process of creating AI-generated images based on user inputs, leveraging the power of the Sora GPT Image API via RapidAPI, making it a powerful tool for creative, design, and marketing purposes.
