n8n Workflow: Viral CCTV Animal Video Generator (GPT & VEO3 AI for TikTok)
This n8n workflow is designed to automate the process of generating ideas for viral CCTV-style animal videos, leveraging AI models, and then notifying a Telegram channel with the generated content. It aims to streamline the creative process for producing engaging short-form video content for platforms like TikTok.
What it does
This workflow performs the following key steps:
- Scheduled Trigger: The workflow is initiated on a recurring schedule, ensuring a consistent output of new video ideas.
- Generate Video Concept (AI): It uses an OpenAI Chat Model (via LangChain's Basic LLM Chain) to generate a concept for a viral CCTV-style animal video. This includes details like the animal, the scenario, and a catchy title.
- Parse AI Output: A Structured Output Parser extracts specific data points (animal, scenario, title) from the AI-generated text, ensuring the information is in a structured format for subsequent steps.
- Conditional Logic: An "If" node checks if the AI successfully generated a video concept.
- Notify Telegram (Success): If a concept is successfully generated, it sends a message to a specified Telegram chat with the video details (animal, scenario, title).
- Notify Telegram (Failure): If the AI failed to generate a concept or the parsing failed, it sends an error notification to the Telegram chat.
- Wait: A "Wait" node introduces a delay, likely to space out notifications or processing.
- HTTP Request (Placeholder): An HTTP Request node is present, but without configured details, it currently serves as a placeholder or a remnant of a previous iteration. It might be intended for future integration with a video generation API (e.g., VEO3 AI) or another service.
- Data Table (Placeholder): A "Data table" node is included, also without configured data. This could be used to store generated video ideas, track their status, or provide input data for the AI.
- Sticky Note: A sticky note provides additional context or instructions within the workflow.
Prerequisites/Requirements
To use this workflow, you will need:
- n8n Instance: A running n8n instance to import and execute the workflow.
- OpenAI API Key: Configured as a credential in n8n for the "OpenAI Chat Model" node.
- Telegram Bot Token & Chat ID: Configured as a credential in n8n for the "Telegram" node to send notifications.
Setup/Usage
- Import the Workflow: Download the provided JSON and import it into your n8n instance.
- Configure Credentials:
- Set up your OpenAI API Key credential.
- Set up your Telegram API credential, providing your bot token and the chat ID where you want to receive notifications.
- Customize Schedule: Adjust the "Schedule Trigger" node to your desired frequency for generating video ideas.
- Review AI Prompts: Inspect the "Basic LLM Chain" and "OpenAI Chat Model" nodes to understand and potentially refine the prompts used to generate video concepts.
- Activate the Workflow: Once configured, activate the workflow to start generating viral video ideas automatically.
- Extend (Optional):
- Configure the "HTTP Request" node to integrate with a video generation service (like VEO3 AI as hinted by the directory name) or another platform.
- Populate the "Data table" to store and manage your generated video ideas.

Auto-reply & create Linear tickets from Gmail with GPT-5, gotoHuman & human review
This workflow automatically classifies every new email from your linked mailbox, drafts a personalized reply, and creates Linear tickets for bugs or feature requests. It uses a human-in-the-loop with gotoHuman and continuously improves itself by learning from approved examples. How it works The workflow triggers on every new email from your linked mailbox. Self-learning Email Classifier: an AI model categorizes the email into defined categories (e.g., Bug Report, Feature Request, Sales Opportunity, etc.). It fetches previously approved classification examples from gotoHuman to refine decisions. Self-learning Email Writer: the AI drafts a reply to the email. It learns over time by using previously approved replies from gotoHuman, with per-classification context to tailor tone and style (e.g., different style for sales vs. bug reports). Human Review in gotoHuman: review the classification and the drafted reply. Drafts can be edited or retried. Approved values are used to train the self-learning agents. Send approved Reply: the approved response is sent as a reply to the email thread. Create ticket: if the classification is Bug or Feature Request, a ticket is created by another AI agent in Linear. Human Review in gotoHuman: How to set up Most importantly, install the gotoHuman node before importing this template! (Just add the node to a blank canvas before importing) Set up credentials for gotoHuman, OpenAI, your email provider (e.g. Gmail), and Linear. In gotoHuman, select and create the pre-built review template "Support email agent" or import the ID: 6fzuCJlFYJtlu9mGYcVT. Select this template in the gotoHuman node. In the "gotoHuman: Fetch approved examples" http nodes you need to add your formId. It is the ID of the review template that you just created/imported in gotoHuman. Requirements gotoHuman (human supervision, memory for self-learning) OpenAI (classification, drafting) Gmail or your preferred email provider (for email trigger+replies) Linear (ticketing) How to customize Expand or refine the categories used by the classifier. Update the prompt to reflect your own taxonomy. Filter fetched training data from gotoHuman by reviewer so the writer adapts to their personalized tone and preferences. Add more context to the AI email writer (calendar events, FAQs, product docs) to improve reply quality.
