Auto-post social posts: Slack
Runs on a schedule across Slack and Google Sheets, runs the text through an AI chain, then reads the feed and keeps only what is new. Built for blog posts, around a "Read Source Feed" step, in 17 documented nodes.
Auto-post social posts with Google Sheets and Slack on autopilot. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Social Scheduler' pattern for content creation & media. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 17 nodes across Slack, Google Sheets. It uses n8n's LangChain AI nodes (Agent/Chain + chat model). Retry-on-fail is enabled on external calls. Import the JSON, add your credentials, and adapt the parameters. Nothing slips through the cracks.
Key benefits
- ✓Keeps Slack and Google Sheets in step for blog posts, without anyone re-typing a row
- ✓Safe to re-run: records already in Slack or Google Sheets are skipped, across all 17 nodes of this blog-posts build
- ✓A failed Slack or Google Sheets call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 17 nodes in this blog-posts build
- ✓The blog-posts AI step is isolated from Slack, so models swap without touching the other 17 nodes
- ✓Pinned sample data ships with it — run all 17 nodes for blog posts before wiring Slack
Use cases
- →Teams keeping Slack and Google Sheets aligned by hand for blog posts
- →Blog posts work where "Read Source Feed" is still a manual step before Slack
- →Blog posts work that only reaches Slack on a schedule, when someone remembers to start it

What you'll learn
Advanced levelAdds branching depth and audit logging on top of the core pattern.
- •Reading a content calendar and publishing only what is due
- •Marking rows published only after the post succeeds
- •Moving data between Slack and Google Sheets in a single run
Every node carries its own documentation on the canvas, plus notes explaining why the architecture was built this way, a credential setup guide, troubleshooting, and three practice exercises. Sample data comes pinned to the trigger, so you can hit Execute and watch data flow before connecting a single account.
Common questions

How do I import it into n8n?
In n8n, open Workflows, click the three-dot menu, choose “Import from File”, and select the downloaded JSON. Then connect your own app credentials on the highlighted nodes.
Do I need anything else for it to work?
