Generate AI-Powered News Summaries with GNews.io and GPT-4 to Slack

This n8n workflow automates the process of fetching the latest news, summarizing it using an AI agent powered by OpenAI's GPT-4, and then posting these summaries to a Slack channel. It's an excellent way to stay informed with concise, AI-generated news briefs without manual effort.

What it does

  1. Triggers on form submission: The workflow starts when an n8n form is submitted. This could be used to manually trigger a news fetch or provide specific parameters for the news search.
  2. Fetches news from GNews.io: An HTTP Request node is used to query the GNews.io API, likely fetching recent news articles based on predefined criteria or parameters passed from the trigger.
  3. Prepares data for AI summarization: An "Edit Fields (Set)" node transforms the fetched news data into a format suitable for the AI agent, potentially combining relevant fields like title and description.
  4. Summarizes news with AI Agent (GPT-4): An "AI Agent" node, configured with an OpenAI Chat Model (likely GPT-4), takes the news articles and generates concise summaries. This agent can be designed to follow specific instructions for summarization.
  5. Posts summaries to Slack: The final step sends the AI-generated news summaries to a designated Slack channel, keeping your team or yourself updated.

Prerequisites/Requirements

To use this workflow, you will need:

  • n8n instance: A running n8n instance (cloud or self-hosted).
  • GNews.io API Key: An API key for GNews.io to fetch news articles.
  • OpenAI API Key: An API key for OpenAI to power the AI Agent (specifically the GPT-4 chat model).
  • Slack Account: A Slack workspace and a channel where you want to post the news summaries. You'll need to configure a Slack credential in n8n.

Setup/Usage

  1. Import the workflow: Download the provided JSON and import it into your n8n instance.
  2. Configure Credentials:
    • GNews.io: Set up an HTTP Request credential with your GNews.io API key.
    • OpenAI: Set up an OpenAI credential with your API key. Ensure it has access to the GPT-4 model if that's your intention.
    • Slack: Set up a Slack credential, granting it the necessary permissions to post messages to your desired channel.
  3. Customize the GNews.io Request: In the "HTTP Request" node, adjust the GNews.io API call parameters (e.g., search query, language, country, number of articles) to fetch the news you're interested in.
  4. Refine the AI Agent: In the "AI Agent" node, review and modify the prompt or instructions given to the OpenAI Chat Model to fine-tune how the news summaries are generated (e.g., length, tone, focus).
  5. Configure Slack Post: In the "Slack" node, specify the target channel and customize the message format to display the summaries as desired.
  6. Activate the Workflow: Once configured, activate the workflow.
  7. Trigger the Workflow: Submit the n8n form associated with the "On form submission" trigger node to run the workflow. You can also manually execute the workflow for testing.

Automated UGC video generator with Gemini images and SORA 2

This workflow automates the creation of user-generated-content-style product videos by combining Gemini's image generation with OpenAI's SORA 2 video generation. It accepts webhook requests with product descriptions, generates images and videos, stores them in Google Drive, and logs all outputs to Google Sheets for easy tracking. Main Use Cases Automate product video creation for e-commerce catalogs and social media. Generate UGC-style content at scale without manual design work. Create engaging video content from simple text prompts for marketing campaigns. Build a centralized library of product videos with automated tracking and storage. How it works The workflow operates as a webhook-triggered process, organized into these stages: Webhook Trigger & Input Accepts POST requests to the /create-ugc-video endpoint. Required payload includes: product prompt, video prompt, Gemini API key, and OpenAI API key. Image Generation (Gemini) Sends the product prompt to Google's Gemini 2.5 Flash Image model. Generates a product image based on the description provided. Data Extraction Code node extracts the base64 image data from Gemini's response. Preserves all prompts and API keys for subsequent steps. Video Generation (SORA 2) Sends the video prompt to OpenAI's SORA 2 API. Initiates video generation with specifications: 720x1280 resolution, 8 seconds duration. Returns a video generation job ID for polling. Video Status Polling Continuously checks video generation status via OpenAI API. If status is "completed": proceeds to download. If status is still processing: waits 1 minute and retries (polling loop). Video Download & Storage Downloads the completed video file from OpenAI. Uploads the MP4 file to Google Drive (root folder). Generates a shareable Google Drive link. Logging to Google Sheets Records all generation details in a tracking spreadsheet: Product description Video URL (Google Drive link) Generation status Timestamp Summary Flow: Webhook Request → Generate Product Image (Gemini) → Extract Image Data → Generate Video (SORA 2) → Poll Status → If Complete: Download Video → Upload to Google Drive → Log to Google Sheets → Return Response If Not Complete: Wait 1 Minute → Poll Status Again Benefits: Fully automated video creation pipeline from text to finished product. Scalable solution for generating multiple product videos on demand. Combines cutting-edge AI models (Gemini + SORA 2) for high-quality output. Centralized storage in Google Drive with automatic logging in Google Sheets. Flexible webhook interface allows integration with any application or service. Retry mechanism ensures videos are captured even with longer processing times. --- Created by Daniel Shashko
