Generate AI Viral Videos with Seedance and Upload to TikTok, YouTube & Instagram

This n8n workflow automates the process of generating AI-powered viral video concepts from a Google Sheet, creating the videos using an external API (likely Seedance based on the directory name, though not explicitly in JSON), and then potentially preparing them for upload to social media platforms.

What it does

This workflow orchestrates a series of steps to automate video content creation:

1. Triggers on Schedule: The workflow starts on a predefined schedule, ensuring regular content generation.
2. Reads Data from Google Sheets: It fetches video ideas or prompts from a specified Google Sheet.
3. Generates AI Content (via HTTP Request): For each entry from the Google Sheet, it makes an HTTP request to an external API (presumably Seedance) to generate video content. This step likely involves sending prompts or data to the AI video generation service.
4. Processes AI Output:
   • It uses an AI Agent (Langchain) to potentially interpret or refine the AI-generated content.
   • A Structured Output Parser then extracts specific, structured data from the AI Agent's response, ensuring consistency.
   • A Think Tool is also present, suggesting a step for internal reasoning or decision-making within the AI process.
   • An OpenAI Chat Model is utilized, indicating that the workflow leverages a large language model to assist with content generation, refinement, or understanding.
5. Merges Data: It combines the original data from Google Sheets with the processed AI-generated content.
6. Waits for Processing: A Wait node is included, likely to pause the workflow, allowing time for external video generation processes to complete before proceeding.
7. Custom Code Execution: A Code node is present, enabling custom JavaScript logic to be executed. This could be for data manipulation, formatting, or preparing data for the next steps.
8. Placeholder for Upload: Although not explicitly defined in the provided JSON, the overall workflow name suggests that the generated content would then be uploaded to platforms like TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram. The HTTP Request node could be used for this purpose in subsequent steps.

Prerequisites/Requirements

To use this workflow, you will need:

• n8n Instance: A running n8n instance.
• Google Sheets Account: Access to a Google Sheet containing your video ideas/prompts.
• External AI Video Generation Service: An API key and access to an AI video generation service (e.g., Seedance, as hinted by the directory name). This service will be called via the HTTP Request node.
• OpenAI API Key: For the OpenAI Chat Model node to function.
• Social Media Accounts: Accounts for TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram (and potentially their respective API credentials if direct uploads are intended).

Setup/Usage

1. Import the workflow: Import the provided JSON into your n8n instance.
2. Configure Google Sheets:
   • Set up credentials for your Google Sheets account.
   • Specify the Spreadsheet ID and Sheet Name from which the workflow should read data.
3. Configure HTTP Request (AI Video Generation):
   • Update the HTTP Request node with the correct URL, API key, and payload structure for your chosen AI video generation service (e.g., Seedance).
4. Configure OpenAI Chat Model:
   • Set up your OpenAI API credentials.
5. Configure Schedule Trigger:
   • Adjust the schedule in the Schedule Trigger node to your desired frequency for generating videos.
6. Review and Customize Code:
   • Examine the Code node and modify the JavaScript logic as needed for any specific data transformations or preparations unique to your use case.
7. Add Social Media Upload Nodes (if not already present):
   • Extend the workflow with additional HTTP Request nodes or dedicated n8n nodes for TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram to handle the actual video uploads. This will require configuring their respective API credentials and payload structures.
8. Activate the workflow: Once all configurations are complete, activate the workflow.
