1.1 Workflow description

Title: Create & post social media carousels across 5 platforms with AI & Blotato
Workflow name: Create & post social media carousels across 5 platforms with AI & Blotato

Description

This AI Agent Carousel Maker uses ChatGPT and Blotato to write, generate, and auto-post social media carousels to 5 social platforms: Instagram, Tiktok, Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest.

Simply chat with the AI agent, confirm which prebuilt viral carousel template you want to use, then the AI Agent populates the template with your personalized information and quotes, and posts to social media on autopilot.

Who Is This For?

This is perfect for entrepreneurs, small businesses, content creators, digital marketing agencies, social media marketing agencies, and influencers.

How It Works

1. Chat: AI Agent Carousel Maker

Chat with AI agent about your desired carousel
Confirm quotes and carousel template to use

2. Carousel Generation

AI agent calls corresponding Blotato tool to generate carousel
Wait and fetch completed carousel

3. Publish to Social Media via Blotato

Choose your social accounts
Either post immediately or schedule for later

Setup

Sign up for OpenAPI API access and create credential
Sign up for Blotato.com
Generate Blotato API Key by going to Settings > API > Generate API Key (paid feature only)
Create Blotato credential
If you're using n8n, ensure you have ""Verified Community Nodes"" enabled in your n8n Admin Panel. Then, install ""Blotato"" verified community node.
Click ""Open chat"" to test workflow
Complete SETUP sticky notes in BROWN in this template

Tips & Tricks

AFTER your first successful run, open each carousel template tool call (i.e. pink nodes attached to AI Agent Carousel Maker) and tweak the parameters, but DO NOT change the ""quotes"" parameter unless you're an n8n expert.
DO NOT edit the 'quotes' parameter unless you're an n8n expert.
When adding a new template, DO NOT duplicate an existing node. Instead, click '+ Tool' > Blotato Tool > Video > Create > select new template. This ensures template parameters are correctly loaded.
While testing: enable only 1 social platform, and deactivate the rest. Add optional parameter 'scheduledTime' so that you don't accidentally post to social media. Check your content calendar here: https://my.blotato.com/queue/schedules

Promote YouTube uploads to social channels with DeepSeek and Posta

## Quick overview This workflow fetches the latest video from a YouTube channel feed, generates platform-specific promo captions with DeepSeek, and creates draft promotion posts in Posta for active social media accounts. You can automatically promote your videos to all your social media. Add a "publish" at the end for auto-post. ## How it works 1. Runs manually when you click “Execute workflow”. 2. Fetches your YouTube channel RSS feed over HTTP, parses the XML, and extracts the latest video’s title, description, thumbnail URL, and link. 3. Downloads the video thumbnail and uploads it to Posta to create a reusable media asset. 4. Retrieves your social accounts from Posta, keeps only active accounts, and de-duplicates them to one account per platform. 5. Combines the latest video data with each target platform and asks DeepSeek (via an n8n LangChain LLM chain) to write a tailored promotional caption per platform. 6. Tags each generated caption with its platform and merges it back to the matching Posta social account. 7. Creates a draft Posta post per selected account, attaching the uploaded thumbnail and the platform-specific caption and video link. 8. (Optional) Add a "publish a post" at the end to automatically post to the social media channels (If you are feeling brave and trust the LLM), ## Setup 1. Add a Posta API credential and select it in the Posta nodes that list accounts, upload media, and create posts. 2. Add a DeepSeek API credential and select it in the DeepSeek Chat Model node. 3. Update the YouTube channel feed URL (channel_id) in the HTTP request that downloads the YouTube feed. 4. Review your Posta social accounts to ensure the intended accounts are marked active and have the correct platform values for de-duplication. ## Additional info Video explanation: https://youtu.be/tTWaYb71YyA

Post scheduled Threads updates from Google Sheets with error tracking

## Quick overview This workflow runs hourly to read the next pending post from Google Sheets, publishes it to Threads via the Threads Graph API, and then updates the sheet with published or failed status plus timestamps and error details. ## How it works 1. Runs every hour on a schedule. 2. Reads the first row in Google Sheets where the status column equals pending. 3. Retrieves the authenticated Threads account’s user ID from the Threads Graph API. 4. Creates a Threads text post container using the content from the pending Google Sheets row. 5. Publishes the post to Threads and updates the same Google Sheets row as published with posted_at and updated_at timestamps. 6. If any Threads API call fails, records the error message and marks the corresponding Google Sheets row as failed with an updated_at timestamp. ## Setup 1. Create a Meta app and generate a Threads access token, then add it to an HTTP Header Auth credential used for the Threads Graph API requests. 2. Set up a Google Sheets Service Account credential in n8n and share your target spreadsheet with the service account email. 3. Replace the placeholder Google Sheet ID in all Google Sheets nodes and confirm the sheet name is Sheet1 (or update it to match your sheet). 4. Ensure your sheet has the required columns (row_number, content, status, posted_at, updated_at, error_message) and set status to pending for posts you want published.

Send a daily product newsletter with Google Sheets and Gmail

## Quick Overview This workflow runs daily at 08:00, pulls products scheduled for today from Google Sheets, generates an HTML newsletter email, and sends it to each subscriber via Gmail. ## How it works 1. Runs every day at 08:00 on a schedule. 2. Reads all rows from the `newsletter_products` sheet in Google Sheets. 3. Keeps only products whose `send_date` matches today’s date and stops if none are found. 4. Builds an HTML email and subject line containing a card for each product (image, description, and optional referral link). 5. Reads the subscriber list from the `newsletter_recipients` sheet in Google Sheets. 6. Sends the generated newsletter to each recipient individually using Gmail. ## Setup 1. Create or copy a Google Sheets document with `newsletter_products` (including a `send_date` column) and `newsletter_recipients` (including an `email` column). 2. Add a Google Sheets OAuth2 credential in n8n and paste your Google Sheet ID into the Config step. 3. Add a Gmail OAuth2 credential and confirm the sender mailbox to use for sending the newsletter. 4. Add products and recipients to the sheet, run a test execution, and adjust the schedule/timezone if needed before activating.
