🤖 Automated AI News Video Creation and Social Media Publishing Workflow

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🎯 Overview:

This workflow fully automates the creation and social media distribution of AI-generated news videos. It fetches news, crafts captions, generates avatar videos via HeyGen, stores them, and publishes them across Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube via Postiz.

🔄 WORKFLOW PROCESS:

  1. News Fetching: Reads the latest news from an RSS feed.
  2. AI Captioning: Generates concise, engaging captions using an AI agent (GPT-4o-mini).
  3. Video Generation: Creates an AI avatar video using HeyGen with the generated caption.
  4. Video Storage: Downloads the video and uploads it to Google Drive for archival.
  5. Data Logging: Records all news and video metadata into Google Sheets.
  6. Postiz Upload: Uploads the video to Postiz's internal storage for publishing.
  7. Social Publishing: Fetches Postiz integrations and routes the video to Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube after platform-specific content cleaning.

⚙️ KEY TECHNOLOGIES:

  • RSS Feeds: News source.
  • LangChain (n8n nodes): AI Agent and Chat OpenAI for caption generation.
  • HeyGen API: AI avatar video creation.
  • Google Drive: Video file storage.
  • Google Sheets: Data logging and tracking.
  • Postiz API: Unified social media publishing platform.

⚠️CRITICAL CONFIGURATIONS:

  • API Keys: Ensure HeyGen and Postiz API keys are correctly set in credentials and the 'Setup Heygen Parameters' node.
  • HeyGen IDs: Verify avatar_id and voice_id in 'Setup Heygen Parameters'.
  • Postiz URL: Confirm https://postiz.yourdomain.com is your correct Postiz instance URL across all HTTP Request nodes.
  • Credentials: All Google, OpenAI, and Postiz credentials must be properly linked.

📈BENEFITS:
