1.1 Workflow description

Title
Send daily World Cup 2026 briefings to Slack with OpenAI GPT-5 Mini
Workflow name
Send daily World Cup 2026 briefings to Slack with OpenAI GPT-5 Mini

Quick Overview

This workflow runs every morning in Asia/Dhaka, pulls FIFA World Cup 2026 fixtures, standings, teams, and stadium data from worldcup26.ir, uses OpenAI to generate a compact next-day briefing with Bangladesh-local kickoff times, and posts the report to a Slack channel.

How it works

  1. Runs daily at 07:00 (Asia/Dhaka) on a schedule trigger.
  2. Calculates yesterday and tomorrow’s dates in Bangladesh time to define the reporting window.
  3. Fetches games, group standings, team details, and stadium/host city information from the worldcup26.ir HTTP endpoints.
  4. Merges the feeds, converts venue-local kickoff times to Asia/Dhaka, selects tomorrow’s fixtures (plus recent results and relevant standings), and builds a mobile-friendly briefing prompt.
  5. Sends the prompt to an OpenAI chat model and generates a Slack-formatted matchday briefing.
  6. Cleans and normalizes the generated text (or adds a fallback warning if empty) and posts it to the selected Slack channel with mrkdwn enabled.

Setup

  1. Add an OpenAI API credential for the OpenAI chat model used by the AI Agent.
  2. Add a Slack OAuth2 credential and select the target Slack channel for the daily post.
  3. Update the schedule cron expression if you want a different send time than 07:00 Asia/Dhaka.

4. Reproducing the Workflow from Scratch

  1. 1. Download the workflow JSON

    Use the JSON export at /data/workflows/16429/16429.json as the source template for this automation.

  2. 2. Import the template into n8n

    Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.

  3. 3. Configure credentials and variables

    Replace placeholder credentials, API keys, webhook URLs, account IDs, and environment-specific values with your own settings.

  4. 4. Test with sample data

    Run the workflow manually or in a staging workspace, inspect node output, and confirm downstream systems receive the expected data.

  5. 5. Activate and monitor

    Enable the workflow only after testing, then monitor executions, errors, and rate limits during the first production runs.

5. General Notes & Resources

Review imported nodes carefully before activation. This catalog entry is intended to help you inspect the workflow structure, understand required services, and find related templates faster.

Node names, credentials, schedules, webhook paths, and external service limits may need adjustment for your workspace.
