   • Detailed Telegram Report: A more comprehensive summary suitable for a Telegram channel or group.
8. Automated Posting to X (Twitter): Automatically posts the generated X summary to your connected Twitter account.
9. Automated Delivery to Telegram: Automatically sends the detailed Telegram report to your specified Telegram chat ID.

Setup:

To get started, you will need to configure the following services and credentials:

1. CryptoPanic API Token:

   • Obtain a free API token from the CryptoPanic website: https://cryptopanic.com/
   • In n8n, navigate to the "HTTP Request" node (named "HTTP Request").
   • In the node parameters, locate the "URL" field and replace "YOURTOKEN" in the URL with your obtained CryptoPanic API token.

2. OpenAI API Key:

   • Obtain an API key from OpenAI: https://platform.openai.com/
   • For Content Extraction: In n8n, connect your OpenAI account to the "ContentExtraction GPT3.5" node (named "ContentExtraction GPT3.5"). Use your OpenAI API key for the credentials.
   • For News Summarization & Social Media Content Generation: In n8n, connect your OpenAI account to the "Summary news GPT" node (named "Summary news GPT"). Use your OpenAI API key for the credentials.

3. X (Twitter) Developer Credentials:

   • Create a developer account and project on the X Developer Portal: https://developer.twitter.com/
   • Obtain the necessary API keys and tokens for your X app.
   • In n8n, connect your X Developer account credentials to the "X" node (named "X").

4. Telegram Bot and Chat ID:

   • Create a Telegram bot using BotFather on Telegram. Obtain your bot's API token.
   • Obtain the Chat ID of the Telegram chat where you want to send news reports.
   • In n8n, connect your Telegram Bot API token to the "Telegram" node (named "Telegram").
   • In the "Telegram" node parameters, replace "YOUR_TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID" with your Telegram Chat ID.

How to customize this workflow:

• Adapt to ANY Topic: Change the "HTTP Request" node to use a news API for your desired topic (AI, Sports, World News, etc.). Critically, adjust the prompts in the "Summary news GPT" node to be relevant to your chosen topic so the AI generates appropriate summaries and social media content.
• Adjust Scheduling Frequency: Modify the "Schedule Trigger" node to change how often the workflow runs and posts news.
• Adjust Scheduling Frequency: Modify the "Schedule Trigger" node to change the frequency of news updates (e.g., change the interval from 90 minutes to a different value).
• Modify News Filtering: Customize the Python code in the "Extract Meta" node to adjust the news filtering criteria. You can change the time window (currently 30 minutes) or filter based on other criteria from the CryptoPanic API response.
• Experiment with GPT Models: In the "Summary news GPT" node, try different OpenAI models (e.g., gpt-4, gpt-3.5-turbo-16k) to see how they affect the summarization quality and output. Note that more advanced models may incur higher API costs.
• Customize AI Prompts: Fine-tune the system and user prompts in the "Summary news GPT" node to alter the tone, style, or format of the generated X and Telegram content. You can adjust the persona of the AI blogger, the desired level of detail in summaries, or specific keywords to include.
• Extend to Other Platforms: Add nodes to post to other social media platforms like LinkedIn, Facebook, or Discord by adapting the "Summary news GPT" prompts and integrating relevant n8n nodes for those platforms.
