Workflow name
Generate branded article images with GPT-4o, FAL Flux and Google Drive

📄 What this workflow does

This workflow automatically turns a topic and a reference image URL into a finished, branded article image. It uses GPT-4o to generate a short, detailed image prompt, sends it to FAL Flux image-to-image for rendering, polls until the job is completed, downloads and resizes the image, overlays your company logo, and finally saves the branded result into a specified Google Drive folder.

👤 Who is this for

Content teams who need consistent, on-brand article images. Marketing teams looking to scale blog and landing page visuals. Designers who want to automate repetitive resizing and branding tasks. Anyone who needs a pipeline from topic → AI illustration → Google Drive asset.

✅ Requirements

OpenAI (GPT-4o) API credentials (for image prompt generation). FAL API key for Flux image-to-image generation. Google Drive OAuth2 connection + target folder ID for saving images. A company logo file/URL (direct download link from Google Drive or any public URL).

⚙️ How to set up

Connect OpenAI GPT-4o in the “Create prompt” node. Add your FAL API key to all HTTP Request nodes (generate image, check image finish, Get image link). Replace the logo link in “Get company’s logo” with your own logo URL. Configure the Google Drive node with your OAuth2 credentials and set the correct Folder ID. Update the image_url in “Link image” (or pass from upstream data). Test the workflow end-to-end with a sample subject and image.

🔁 How it works

Form/Manual Trigger → Input subject + reference image URL. GPT-4o → Generates a <70-word sharp/detailed prompt (no text/logos). FAL Flux (HTTP Request) → Submits job for image-to-image generation. Polling Loop → Wait + check status until COMPLETED. Download Image → Retrieves generated image link. Resize Image → Standardize to 800×500 pixels. Get & Resize Logo → Fetch company logo, resize for branding. Composite → Overlay logo onto article image. Save to Google Drive → Final branded image saved in target folder.
