The Newsletter stories to Instagram news posts workflow on the n8n canvas

What it does

A schedule runs this every morning. It reads the last day of emails from a newsletter sender in Gmail, and an OpenAI model picks the stories your audience would care about.

For each story, a search-enabled model researches the facts. Using your brand voice from Airtable, the workflow writes the post text, drafts three headlines, picks the best one and writes an image prompt. It edits your reference image with the OpenAI image API, adding a black fade and the headline. The image goes to Google Drive and is shared, and a post record is created in Airtable with the text, image and Instagram selected, set to To Do for your scheduling tool.
