n8n AI Podcast Generator with RSS Feed and ElevenLabs Voice (Placeholder)

This n8n workflow is designed to automate the process of generating AI-powered podcast episodes and distributing them via an RSS feed. It leverages AI for content generation and speech synthesis, then publishes the new episodes.

Note: Based on the provided JSON, this is a foundational workflow. While the directory name suggests "ElevenLabs Voice" and "AI Podcast Generator," the current JSON primarily shows core n8n nodes for conditional logic, RSS reading, communication (Telegram, Gmail), file storage (Google Drive), error handling, and a single OpenAI node. The full AI generation and ElevenLabs integration logic would need to be added or is represented by the placeholder OpenAI node.

What it does (Based on current JSON)

  1. Schedules Execution: The workflow is triggered on a predefined schedule.
  2. Reads RSS Feed: It fetches content from an RSS feed.
  3. Conditional Logic: It includes an "If" node, suggesting conditional processing of the RSS feed items.
  4. OpenAI Integration: It has an OpenAI node, indicating potential use of AI for tasks like content generation, summarization, or analysis.
  5. Communication: It can send messages via Telegram and Gmail, possibly for notifications or approvals.
  6. File Storage: It interacts with Google Drive, likely for storing generated content or audio files.
  7. Error Handling: It includes a "Stop and Error" node for graceful error management.
  8. Code Execution: A "Code" node is present, allowing for custom JavaScript logic.
  9. Notes: A "Sticky Note" is included for documentation within the workflow.

Prerequisites/Requirements

  • n8n Instance: A running n8n instance.
  • RSS Feed: An existing RSS feed to monitor.
  • OpenAI API Key: Credentials for OpenAI (for the OpenAI node).
  • Telegram Account: A Telegram bot token and chat ID (if using the Telegram node).
  • Gmail Account: Google OAuth credentials for Gmail (if using the Gmail node).
  • Google Drive Account: Google OAuth credentials for Google Drive (if using the Google Drive node).

Setup/Usage

  1. Import the Workflow: Import the provided JSON into your n8n instance.
  2. Configure Credentials:
    • Set up your OpenAI credentials.
    • Configure Telegram credentials (Bot Token, Chat ID) if you intend to use it for notifications.
    • Configure Gmail credentials (Google OAuth) if you intend to send emails.
    • Configure Google Drive credentials (Google OAuth) if you intend to store files.
  3. Configure RSS Read Node:
    • Specify the URL of the RSS feed you want to monitor.
  4. Configure If Node:
    • Define the conditions for processing RSS feed items based on your requirements.
  5. Configure OpenAI Node:
    • Set up the desired OpenAI operation (e.g., text generation, summarization) and provide necessary prompts or parameters.
  6. Configure Google Drive Node:
    • Specify the operation (e.g., upload file) and the target folder in Google Drive.
  7. Configure Telegram/Gmail Nodes:
    • Customize the messages and recipients for notifications.
  8. Customize Code Node:
    • Add any custom JavaScript logic required for data transformation or specific tasks.
  9. Activate the Workflow: Once configured, activate the workflow to start running on its schedule.

This README provides a general overview based on the provided JSON. For the full "AI Podcast Generator with ElevenLabs Voice" functionality, additional nodes (e.g., HTTP Request for ElevenLabs API, audio processing) and more detailed logic would be integrated into the workflow.

If AI returns non-JSON, keep β€œReturn only a JSON array” as the last line of the prompt and keep jsonOutput enabled. Consider adding validation on parsing.warnings to gate Salesforce writes. For discounts/taxes in OLI: Standard OLI fields don’t support per-line discount amounts directly; model them in UnitPrice or custom fields. Replace the Composite API URL with your org’s domain or use the Salesforce node’s Bulk Upsert for simplicity.
