How It Works
This workflow initiates when a new video is uploaded to your designated Google Drive folder. n8n then automatically downloads the video, extracts its audio, and sends it to OpenAI for transcription. The transcribed audio, along with pre-defined examples, is fed into another OpenAI model (GPT-4o) to generate a compelling social media description optimized for engagement. Finally, the workflow uploads the original video and its AI-crafted description to both TikTok and Instagram, utilizing the upload-post.com API for streamlined multi-platform distribution. An integrated error handling system alerts you via Telegram if any part of the process fails.
