How it works

This workflow automates LinkedIn posting for businesses and personal brands.
It starts with a form where you submit your post idea. Then:

Message Model (OpenAI) generates the LinkedIn post text in a professional and engaging style.
Image Generation (OpenAI) creates a custom visual to match the post idea and brand style.
LinkedIn Node publishes the text + image directly to your LinkedIn account.

This way, you can go from idea → AI-written post → branded visual → live LinkedIn content, all in one automated flow.

Setup steps

Connect your Form Trigger (or replace with Google Forms/Typeform/Notion etc. if you prefer).
Configure OpenAI credentials for text and image generation.
Adjust the AI prompts with your own details: [business name], [founder name], [brand colors], [tone of voice].
Connect your LinkedIn account in the final node.

Requirements

OpenAI API key (for text + image generation)
LinkedIn account with API access
n8n instance (self-hosted or cloud)

Create and schedule LinkedIn posts from Google Sheets with Gemini and DALL·E

## Overview This n8n automation is a complete LinkedIn Content Engine that turns simple topic ideas into fully written, visual, and scheduled posts. It features a "Human-in-the-Loop" design, meaning AI handles the heavy lifting of writing and image creation, but nothing goes live until you manually approve it in Google Sheets. ## How It Works The system runs two separate workflows in parallel: ### 1. The "Creator" Workflow **Input:** Detects when you add a new topic to your "Content Calendar" Google Sheet. **Brand Alignment:** Pulls your specific "Brand Voice" guidelines from a separate tab to ensure the AI sounds like you. **Creation:** Uses Gemini Flash 1.5 to write the post and DALL-E 3 to generate a matching professional image. **Drafting:** Uploads the image to ImgBB and saves the full draft back to your sheet with a status of "Draft." ### 2. The "Publisher" Workflow **Daily Scan:** Wakes up every morning to check your Content Calendar. **Verification:** Looks for posts that match two criteria: * Date Scheduled matches today's date. * Status is marked as "Approved" (by you). **Publishing:** If both match, it automatically uploads the text and image to LinkedIn and updates the sheet status to "Posted." **Tools Used:** n8n, Google Sheets, OpenRouter (Gemini / OpenAI), ImgBB. ## Connect & Learn More **YouTube Channel:** **[Simon Scrapes](https://www.youtube.com/@simonscrapes)** – More tutorials on AI & Automation. **Community:** **[Skool Community](https://www.skool.com/scrapes/about)** – Master AI & Automation with us. **Full Video Tutorial:** [Watch the step-by-step build here](https://youtu.be/eiIRSUhPgOI?si=lgZTrPZPMqWF4uqz&t=4276)

Curate and post AI news to X, Bluesky, Threads and more with GPT-5 mini and Cue

# Curate & post AI news to X, Bluesky, Threads & more via GPT-5 mini & Cue This n8n template automatically curates AI news from RSS feeds and generates platform-tailored social media posts using GPT-5 mini. Posts are saved as drafts in Cue for review before publishing to X, Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon, and Facebook. Use cases include: * Daily automated AI/tech news curation * Multi-platform social media content creation * Building thought leadership with consistent posting * Staying on top of industry news without manual effort ## Who is this for? This workflow is ideal for: * Tech content creators who want to share AI news across multiple platforms * Social media managers handling multiple accounts * Anyone building an audience around AI/tech topics * Teams who want consistent daily content without manual curation ## What problem does this workflow solve? Manually curating news, writing platform-specific posts, and publishing across 5 different social networks is time-consuming. This workflow automates the entire process: * **Curation** - Pulls from 4 trusted AI/tech RSS feeds daily * **Deduplication** - Tracks posted articles in Google Sheets so you never share the same story twice * **Content creation** - GPT-5 mini writes posts tailored to each platform's style and character limits * **Review workflow** - Creates drafts in Cue so you can review before publishing ## How it works 1. **Schedule Trigger** - Runs daily at 9am (configurable) 2. **RSS Feeds** - Fetches articles from TechCrunch AI, Ars Technica AI, The Verge AI, and MIT Tech Review 3. **Filter & Merge** - Combines all feeds and filters to articles from the last 7 days 4. **Deduplication** - Compares against Google Sheets to find unposted articles 5. **Random Selection** - Picks one random article from available stories 6. **AI Generation** - GPT-5 mini generates 5 platform-specific posts with appropriate tone and length 7. **Save to Cue** - Creates a draft post with all 5 platform variations 8. **Log to Sheet** - Records the article URL to prevent future duplicates ## Setup ### Requirements * [Cue account](https://oncue.so) with connected social accounts * OpenAI API key * Google account for Sheets ### Step 1: Install the Cue community node 1. Go to **Settings** → **Community Nodes** 2. Click **Install** 3. Enter `@cuehq/n8n-nodes-cue` ### Step 2: Create tracking spreadsheet 1. Create a new Google Sheet named "AI News Tracker" 2. Add these column headers in row 1: * `article_url` * `title` * `source` * `processed_at` ### Step 3: Configure credentials 1. **Google Sheets** - Add OAuth2 credentials and connect to the "Get Recent Posts" node 2. **OpenAI** - Add your API key and connect to the "GPT-5 mini" node 3. **Cue** - Add your API key from [Cue Settings](https://app.oncue.so/settings/api) ### Step 4: Configure the Cue node 1. Open the **Create Draft in Cue** node 2. Select your **Profile** 3. For each platform slot, select your social account: * Slot 1 → X/Twitter * Slot 2 → Bluesky * Slot 3 → Threads * Slot 4 → Mastodon * Slot 5 → Facebook Don't have all 5 platforms? Simply delete the unused slots. ### Step 5: Publish Save and click **Publish** to activate the workflow. ## Customizing this workflow ### Change the schedule Edit the **Daily 9am Trigger** node to run at a different time or frequency. ### Use different RSS feeds Replace the feed URLs with sources relevant to your niche. The workflow handles any standard RSS feed. Keep 3-6 feeds for best results. ### Auto-publish instead of drafts To publish immediately instead of creating drafts, enable **Publish Immediately** in the Cue node settings. ### Adjust the AI tone Modify the system prompt in the **Write Social Posts** node to match your brand voice or adjust platform-specific guidelines. ## Good to know * **Cost** - Each run uses one OpenAI API call. With GPT-5 mini, this costs approximately $0.01-0.02 per execution. * **Draft review** - Posts are created as drafts in Cue, giving you a chance to review and edit before publishing. * **Deduplication** - The Google Sheet tracks all posted URLs, so the same article is never shared twice. ## About Cue [Cue](https://oncue.so) is a social media scheduling platform that lets you manage and publish content across X, Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Instagram from a single dashboard.

Create and post social media image captions with GPT-4.1-mini and Google Sheets

# Social Media Posting Automation with Image and Caption ## How it works This AI-powered workflow streamlines your social media posting process, transforming hours of manual caption writing, image uploading, and scheduling into a fully automated system. You define the topic and image once, and the workflow handles caption generation, review, approval, and posting to your selected platforms. ### Automated Flow 1. **Generate Caption** Trigger the workflow manually and set your post topic and image URL in the Set node. The AI (GPT-4.1-mini) generates a high-quality, engaging social media caption tailored to your audience, platform, and content goals. 2. **Store in Google Sheet** The generated caption, along with your image URL and post metadata, is automatically appended to your Google Sheet. This creates a central location to review and manage all your social media content. 3. **Review and Approve** You review the generated caption in the sheet, make any edits if needed, and update the status to **Approved**. You can also select the platform(s) where you want to post. 4. **Automatic Posting** Once the status is updated to Approved, the next workflow is triggered automatically. It posts your caption and image to the selected social media platform(s) without any further manual effort. **The result?** A seamless, end-to-end social media posting process where captions are AI-generated, stored, reviewed, and posted automatically. Focus on strategy and engagement instead of repetitive manual posting. --- ## Setup Steps **Setup time:** ~10–15 minutes **What you’ll need:** OpenAI API key, Google account, access to your social media platform(s) 1. **Connect Your Google Account** - Click on the Google Sheets node in your workflow. - Select the Credential dropdown and choose **+ Create New Credential**. - Authenticate your Google account and grant the necessary permissions. 2. **Initialize Your Spreadsheet** - Run the workflow once by clicking the play button on the start node. - This will automatically create a Google Sheet with all the required columns for caption tracking and approval. 3. **Add Your OpenAI API Key** - Navigate to the AI Agent node. - Click the Credential dropdown and select **+ Create New Credential**. - Paste your OpenAI API key and save. - Get your API key from [platform.openai.com/api-keys](https://platform.openai.com/api-keys). 4. **Set Post Topic and Image** - Update the title in the Set node with the topic you want to post. - Add the image URL associated with your post. 5. **Review Captions and Approve** - Open your Google Sheet, review the generated captions, and update the status to **Approved**. - Select the platform(s) where the post should go live. 6. **Go Live** - Once the status is updated, the workflow will automatically post your content to the selected social media platform(s). - Sit back and watch your AI-generated captions and images go live automatically. **Ready to automate your social media?** Activate your workflow and start posting smarter today! 🚀💡✅
