Generate Custom AI Videos with Digital Avatars Using HeyGen API (Placeholder)

This n8n workflow template provides a foundational structure for interacting with external APIs, incorporating conditional logic, and managing execution flow. While the specific HeyGen API integration is not fully defined in this JSON, the template demonstrates key n8n capabilities for building robust automation.

What it does

This workflow showcases how to:

1. Make an HTTP Request: Initiates a request to an external API endpoint. This node is typically used to send data, retrieve information, or trigger actions in other services.
2. Implement Conditional Logic: Uses a Switch node to create different execution paths based on specific conditions. This allows for dynamic workflow behavior.
3. Introduce Delays: Incorporates a Wait node to pause the workflow's execution for a specified duration. This is useful for rate limiting, waiting for external processes, or scheduling.
4. Add Documentation: Includes a Sticky Note for in-workflow documentation, helping to explain specific parts of the workflow.

Prerequisites/Requirements

• An n8n instance (cloud or self-hosted).
• Basic understanding of HTTP requests and API interactions.
• (Implicit) An API endpoint to interact with via the HTTP Request node.

Setup/Usage

1. Import the workflow:
   • Copy the provided JSON content.
   • In your n8n instance, click "New" in the Workflows section.
   • Click the three dots menu (...) and select "Import from JSON".
   • Paste the JSON content and click "Import".
2. Configure the HTTP Request node:
   • Double-click the HTTP Request node.
   • Set the URL, Method, Headers, and Body according to the API you intend to interact with.
   • Configure credentials if required by the API.
3. Configure the Switch node:
   • Double-click the Switch node.
   • Define the Value to check and add Cases with Conditions to create different output branches.
   • Connect subsequent nodes to each output branch to define the actions for each condition.
4. Configure the Wait node:
   • Double-click the Wait node.
   • Specify the Amount and Unit for the desired delay (e.g., 5 seconds, 1 minute).
5. Review the Sticky Note:
   • The Sticky Note can be used to add comments or explanations about specific parts of the workflow.

This workflow serves as a flexible starting point. You would typically expand upon it by connecting additional nodes to process the API responses, handle errors, and integrate with other services to achieve your desired automation.
