Generate 🤖🧠 AI-powered video 🎥 from image and upload it on Google Drive
This workflow automates the process of generating AI-powered video from image and then generates a video that is uploaded to Google Drive.
This workflow is a powerful tool for automating the creation of AI-generated videos from images, saving time and ensuring a seamless process from input to final output.
Below is a breakdown of the workflow:
1. How It Works
The workflow is designed to create videos from images using AI and manage the generated content. Here's how it works:
- Form Submission:
- The workflow starts with a Form Trigger node, where users submit a form with the following fields:
- Description: The text description for the video.
- Duration (in seconds): The length of the video.
- Aspect Ratio: The aspect ratio of the video (e.g., 16:9, 9:16, 1:1).
- Image URL: The URL of the image to be used for video generation.
- The workflow starts with a Form Trigger node, where users submit a form with the following fields:

-
Set Data:
- The Set Data node organizes the form inputs into a structured format for further processing.
-
Create Video:
- The Create Video node sends a POST request to generate the video.
- The request includes the description, image URL, duration, and aspect ratio.
-
Wait and Check Status:
- The Wait 60 sec. node pauses the workflow for 60 seconds to allow the video generation process to complete.
- The Get Status node checks the status of the video generation by querying the API.
-
Completed?:
- The Completed? node checks if the video generation is complete. If not, the workflow loops back to wait and check again.
-
Retrieve and Upload Video:
- Once the video is generated, the Get Url Video node retrieves the video URL.
- The Get File Video node downloads the video file.
- The Upload Video node uploads the video to a specified folder in Google Drive.
2. Set Up Steps
To set up and use this workflow in n8n, follow these steps:
-
API Key:
- Create an account on account and obtain your API Key.
- In the Create Video node, set up HTTP Header Authentication:
- Name:
Authorization - Value:
Key YOURAPIKEY
- Name:
-
Google Drive Integration:
- Set up Google Drive credentials in n8n for the Upload Video node.
- Specify the folder ID in Google Drive where the generated videos will be uploaded.
-
Form Configuration:
- The Form Trigger node is pre-configured with fields for:
- Description: The text description for the video.
- Duration (in seconds): The length of the video.
- Aspect Ratio: Choose between 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1.
- Image URL: The URL of the image to be used for video generation.
- Customize the form fields if needed.
- The Form Trigger node is pre-configured with fields for:
-
Test the Workflow:
- Submit the form with the required details (description, duration, aspect ratio, and image URL).
- The workflow will:
- Generate the video using the API.
- Check the status until the video is ready.
- Upload the video to Google Drive.
-
Optional Customization:
- Modify the workflow to include additional features, such as:
- Adding more aspect ratio options.
- Sending notifications when the video is ready.
- Integrating with other storage services (e.g., Dropbox, AWS S3).
- Modify the workflow to include additional features, such as:
n8n Form Trigger to Google Drive Upload
This n8n workflow automates the process of handling form submissions, specifically designed to process an image URL and then upload that image to Google Drive. It includes a conditional check and a delay to manage the flow.
What it does
This workflow streamlines the following steps:
- Listens for Form Submissions: It starts by waiting for a submission from an n8n form.
- Extracts Image URL: It processes the submitted data to extract an image URL.
- Conditional Check: It checks if the extracted image URL is valid (not empty).
- Fetches Image (if valid): If an image URL is present, it makes an HTTP request to download the image data.
- Delays Execution: Introduces a short pause in the workflow.
- Prepares Data for Google Drive: Sets the filename for the image using data from the form submission.
- Uploads to Google Drive: Uploads the fetched image to a specified folder in Google Drive.
Prerequisites/Requirements
To use this workflow, you will need:
- n8n Instance: A running instance of n8n.
- n8n Form Trigger: An n8n form configured to trigger this workflow. The form should ideally include a field for an image URL.

Ai website scraper & company intelligence
AI Website Scraper & Company Intelligence Description This workflow automates the process of transforming any website URL into a structured, intelligent company profile. It's triggered by a form, allowing a user to submit a website and choose between a "basic" or "deep" scrape. The workflow extracts key information (mission, services, contacts, SEO keywords), stores it in a structured Supabase database, and archives a full JSON backup to Google Drive. It also features a secondary AI agent that automatically finds and saves competitors for each company, building a rich, interconnected database of company intelligence. --- Quick Implementation Steps Import the Workflow: Import the provided JSON file into your n8n instance. Install Custom Community Node: You must install the community node from: https://www.npmjs.com/package/n8n-nodes-crawl-and-scrape FIRECRAWL N8N Documentation https://docs.firecrawl.dev/developer-guides/workflow-automation/n8n Install Additional Nodes: n8n-nodes-crawl-and-scrape and n8n-nodes-mcp fire crawl mcp . Set up Credentials: Create credentials in n8n for FIRE CRAWL API,Supabase, Mistral AI, and Google Drive. Configure API Key (CRITICAL): Open the Web Search tool node. Go to Parameters → Headers and replace the hardcoded Tavily AI API key with your own. Configure Supabase Nodes: Assign your Supabase credential to all Supabase nodes. Ensure table names (e.g., companies, competitors) match your schema. Configure Google Drive Nodes: Assign your Google Drive credential to the Google Drive2 and save to Google Drive1 nodes. Select the correct Folder ID. Activate Workflow: Turn on the workflow and open the Webhook URL in the “On form submission” node to access the form. --- What It Does Form Trigger Captures user input: “Website URL” and “Scraping Type” (basic or deep). Scraping Router A Switch node routes the flow: Deep Scraping → AI-based MCP Firecrawler agent. Basic Scraping → Crawlee node. Deep Scraping (Firecrawl AI Agent) Uses Firecrawl and Tavily Web Search. Extracts a detailed JSON profile: mission, services, contacts, SEO keywords, etc. Basic Scraping (Crawlee) Uses Crawl and Scrape node to collect raw text. A Mistral-based AI extractor structures the data into JSON. Data Storage Stores structured data in Supabase tables (companies, company_basicprofiles). Archives a full JSON backup to Google Drive. Automated Competitor Analysis Runs after a deep scrape. Uses Tavily web search to find competitors (e.g., from Crunchbase). Saves competitor data to Supabase, linked by company_id. --- Who's It For Sales & Marketing Teams: Enrich leads with deep company info. Market Researchers: Build structured, searchable company databases. B2B Data Providers: Automate company intelligence collection. Developers: Use as a base for RAG or enrichment pipelines. --- Requirements n8n instance (self-hosted or cloud) Supabase Account: With tables like companies, competitors, social_links, etc. Mistral AI API Key Google Drive Credentials Tavily AI API Key (Optional) Custom Nodes: n8n-nodes-crawl-and-scrape --- How It Works Flow Summary Form Trigger: Captures “Website URL” and “Scraping Type”. Switch Node: deep → MCP Firecrawler (AI Agent). basic → Crawl and Scrape node. Scraping & Extraction: Deep path: Firecrawler → JSON structure. Basic path: Crawlee → Mistral extractor → JSON. Storage: Save JSON to Supabase. Archive in Google Drive. Competitor Analysis (Deep Only): Finds competitors via Tavily. Saves to Supabase competitors table. End: Finishes with a No Operation node. --- How To Set Up Import workflow JSON. Install community nodes (especially n8n-nodes-crawl-and-scrape from npm). Configure credentials (Supabase, Mistral AI, Google Drive). Add your Tavily API key. Connect Supabase and Drive nodes properly. Fix disconnected “basic” path if needed. Activate workflow. Test via the webhook form URL. --- How To Customize Change LLMs: Swap Mistral for OpenAI or Claude. Edit Scraper Prompts: Modify system prompts in AI agent nodes. Change Extraction Schema: Update JSON Schema in extractor nodes. Fix Relational Tables: Add Items node before Supabase inserts for arrays (social links, keywords). Enhance Automation: Add email/slack notifications, or replace form trigger with a Google Sheets trigger. --- Add-ons Automated Trigger: Run on new sheet rows. Notifications: Email or Slack alerts after completion. RAG Integration: Use the Supabase database as a chatbot knowledge source. --- Use Case Examples Sales Lead Enrichment: Instantly get company + competitor data from a URL. Market Research: Collect and compare companies in a niche. B2B Database Creation: Build a proprietary company dataset. --- WORKFLOW IMAGE --- Troubleshooting Guide | Issue | Possible Cause | Solution | |-------|----------------|-----------| | Form Trigger 404 | Workflow not active | Activate the workflow | | Web Search Tool fails | Missing Tavily API key | Replace the placeholder key | | FIRECRAWLER / find competitor fails | Missing MCP node | Install n8n-nodes-mcp | | Basic scrape does nothing | Switch node path disconnected | Reconnect “basic” output | | Supabase node error | Wrong table/column names | Match schema exactly | --- Need Help or More Workflows?
