This workflow automates the end-to-end process of generating and publishing blog posts from live news headlines.

Fetch Headlines – Collects the latest top stories from Google News and GDELT, merges them, and removes duplicates.

Headline Selection & Classification – Picks top headlines, checks relevance, and applies style rules.

Draft Generation – Uses GPT to create an initial blog article in a natural, human tone.

Tone & Expansion – Refines the draft for clarity, length, and style (customized to your own writing voice).

Image Generation – Sends the article topic to Leonardo AI, waits for the image to finish rendering, and retrieves the final asset.

Publish to WordPress – Uploads the generated image, assigns alt-text, creates a WordPress post with the article and image, and logs the publication to Google Sheets for tracking.

Purpose

Designed for hands-off content automation, this workflow continuously produces SEO-ready blog posts enriched with AI-generated images and publishes them directly to WordPress. It’s ideal for:

Running an automated blog that reacts to trending news.

Keeping websites updated with fresh, styled content without manual effort.

Creating a repeatable content engine that combines research, writing, and media assets in one pipeline.

Setup Instructions: Add Your Credentials

Go to Credentials in n8n and create:

OpenAI (for article generation)

Leonardo AI (for image generation)

WordPress (to publish posts)

(Optional) Google Sheets (to log published articles)

Attach these credentials to the matching nodes in the workflow.

Check the WordPress Node

Update the WordPress site URL to your own blog.

Make sure the category, tags, and status (publish/draft) are set the way you want.

n8n Workflow: News to Blog Automation with GPT & Leonardo AI for WordPress Publishing

This n8n workflow automates the entire process of converting trending news articles into unique, engaging blog posts, enriching them with AI-generated images, and publishing them to a WordPress site. It leverages the power of AI for content generation and image creation, streamlining content production for your blog.

What it does

This workflow performs the following steps:

  1. Triggers on Schedule: The workflow runs on a predefined schedule (e.g., daily, hourly) to check for new content.
  2. Fetches RSS Feed: It reads the latest articles from an RSS feed (e.g., a news source).
  3. Filters for New Articles: It checks if the fetched articles have already been processed to avoid duplicates using a "Merge" node with "Pass Through" mode.
  4. Generates Blog Post with OpenAI: For each new article, it uses OpenAI (GPT) to generate a unique, SEO-friendly blog post based on the news content.
  5. Generates Blog Image with Leonardo AI (via HTTP Request): It then calls the Leonardo AI API (or a similar image generation service) via an HTTP Request node to create a relevant featured image for the blog post based on the article's title or content.
  6. Publishes to WordPress: Finally, it publishes the AI-generated blog post and the AI-generated image as a new post on a WordPress site.
  7. Marks as Processed: After successful publishing, it updates a record (implicitly, by the "Merge" node's behavior) to ensure the article is not processed again.

Prerequisites/Requirements

To use this workflow, you will need:

  • n8n Instance: A running instance of n8n.
  • RSS Feed URL: The URL of an RSS feed you want to monitor for news.
  • OpenAI API Key: An API key for OpenAI to use its GPT models for content generation.
  • Leonardo AI API Key: An API key for Leonardo AI (or a similar image generation service like Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, etc.) to generate images. This will be used in the "HTTP Request" node.
  • WordPress Site: Access to a WordPress site with an API-enabled user account for publishing.
  • WordPress Credentials: WordPress username and application password (or other authentication method) for the n8n WordPress node.

Setup/Usage

  1. Import the Workflow:

    • Download the provided JSON file for this workflow.
    • In your n8n instance, click on "Workflows" in the left sidebar.
    • Click "New" and then "Import from JSON".
    • Paste the workflow JSON or upload the file.

  2. Configure Nodes:

    • Schedule Trigger (Node 839): Set your desired schedule for how often the workflow should run (e.g., every hour, daily).
    • RSS Read (Node 37):
      • Enter the URL of the RSS feed you wish to monitor.
    • OpenAI (Node 1250):
      • Add your OpenAI API Key credential.
      • Configure the prompt to generate blog posts from the RSS feed item's content.
    • HTTP Request (Node 19) - Leonardo AI:
      • This node will need to be configured to interact with the Leonardo AI API.
      • Set the URL for the Leonardo AI image generation endpoint.
      • Set the Method (likely POST).
      • Add your Leonardo AI API Key as a header (e.g., Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY).
      • Configure the Body to send a prompt for image generation, likely using data from the RSS feed item (e.g., the article title or a summary generated by OpenAI).
      • Adjust any other parameters as required by the Leonardo AI API (e.g., image size, model).
    • WordPress (Node - Missing in JSON, but implied by description):
      • If a WordPress node is added later, configure it with your WordPress site URL and Credentials (e.g., username and application password).
      • Map the output from the OpenAI node (blog post content) and the HTTP Request node (image URL) to the appropriate fields for creating a new post.

  3. Activate the Workflow:

    • Once all nodes are configured, click the "Active" toggle in the top right corner of the workflow editor to enable it.

The workflow will now automatically run on your defined schedule, fetching news, generating content and images, and publishing to your WordPress blog.

Track meal nutrition from meal photos with LINE, Google Gemini and Google Sheets

AI Meal Nutrition Tracker with LINE and Google Sheets Who's it for This workflow is designed for health-conscious individuals, fitness enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to track their daily food intake without manual calorie counting. It is best suited for users who want a simple, AI-powered meal logging system that analyzes food photos one at a time and provides instant nutritional feedback via LINE. What it does This workflow processes a single meal photo sent via LINE, analyzes it using Google Gemini AI to identify foods and estimate nutritional content, and stores the data in Google Sheets for tracking. The workflow focuses on simplicity and encouragement: it receives a meal image, performs AI-based food recognition, estimates calories and macronutrients, calculates a health score, provides personalized advice, and replies with a detailed nutritional breakdown on LINE. How it works A single meal photo is sent to the LINE bot. The workflow is triggered via a LINE webhook. The image file is downloaded and sent to Google Gemini AI for food analysis. The AI identifies foods and estimates nutritional values (calories, protein, carbs, fat, fiber). A health score (1-10) is calculated with personalized improvement tips. The data is appended to Google Sheets for meal history tracking. The image is uploaded to Google Drive for reference. A formatted nutritional report with advice is sent back as a LINE reply. This workflow is intentionally designed to handle one image per execution. Requirements To use this workflow, you will need: A LINE Messaging API account A Google Gemini API key A Google account with access to Google Sheets and Google Drive A Google Sheets document with the following column names: Date Time Meal Type Food Items Calories Protein (g) Carbs (g) Fat (g) Fiber (g) Health Score Advice Image URL Important limitations This workflow does not support multiple images sent in a single message. Sending images in quick succession may trigger multiple executions and lead to unexpected results. Only the first image in an event payload is processed. Nutritional values are AI estimates based on visual analysis and typical serving sizes. Accuracy depends on image quality, lighting, and food visibility. This tool should not replace professional dietary advice. These limitations are intentional to keep the workflow simple and easy to understand. How to set up Create a LINE Messaging API channel and obtain a Channel Access Token. Generate a Google Gemini API key. Update the Config node with your LINE token, Google Sheets ID, Google Drive folder ID, and daily calorie goal. Configure credentials for LINE, Google Gemini, Google Sheets, and Google Drive. Register the n8n webhook URL in your LINE channel settings. Activate the workflow in n8n and test it with a single meal photo. How to customize Modify the AI prompt in the "Analyze Meal with AI" node to support different languages or dietary frameworks (keto, vegan, etc.). Adjust the daily calorie goal in the Config node to match individual needs. Add additional nutritional fields such as sodium, sugar, or vitamins. Replace Google Sheets with a fitness app API or database. Integrate with other services to send daily/weekly nutrition summaries. --- Note: This workflow was tested using real meal photos sent individually via the LINE Messaging API. Nutritional estimates are approximations and may vary from actual values. For accurate dietary tracking, consult a registered dietitian.
