Generate short videos: Slack
Runs on a schedule across Slack and Google Sheets, runs the text through an AI chain, then runs the custom logic in a Code node. Built for AI video, around a "Normalize Asset Payload" step, in 16 documented nodes.
Generate short videos with Slack and Google Sheets. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Video Production' pattern for content creation & media. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 16 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. Your team sees the right data at the right time.
Key benefits
- ✓Keeps Slack and Google Sheets in step for AI video, without anyone re-typing a row
- ✓A failed Slack or Google Sheets call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 16 nodes in this AI-video build
- ✓The AI-video AI step is isolated from Slack, so models swap without touching the other 16 nodes
- ✓Pinned sample data ships with it — run all 16 nodes for AI video before wiring Slack
- ✓16 nodes, each with a doc card explaining what it does for AI video
Use cases
- →Teams keeping Slack and Google Sheets aligned by hand for AI video
- →Ai video work where "Normalize Asset Payload" is still a manual step before Slack
- →Ai video work that only reaches Slack on a schedule, when someone remembers to start it
Integrations
Workflow preview (16 nodes)
The template's actual node layout and connections. Node parameters and credential slots unlock with the download.
What's inside (16 nodes)
A look at the node types this workflow uses. No purchase required — full parameters and credentials are yours after you buy.
From download to running in 3 steps
- 1Import. In n8n, open Workflows → menu → “Import from File” and pick the downloaded JSON.
- 2Connect. Add your own credentials on the app nodes - n8n highlights exactly which ones need them.
- 3Activate. Run it once to test, then toggle Active. The automation is live.
What you'll learn
Advanced levelAdds branching depth and audit logging on top of the core pattern.
- •Staging metadata and descriptions for publishing
- •Moving data between Google Sheets and Slack in a single run
- •Normalising timestamps before anything downstream compares them
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
What exactly do I get?
The complete, ready-to-import n8n workflow as a JSON file, delivered instantly after payment. Import it into your own n8n (cloud or self-hosted), add your credentials, and it runs.
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?
You need your own n8n instance and accounts/credentials for the apps this workflow connects to (Slack, Google Sheets). No coding is required.
What if it doesn't work for me?
If the file is faulty, won't import, or isn't as described, contact us within 7 days and we'll fix it or refund you - see our refund policy.
Can I modify or resell it?
You can freely adapt and use it in your own or your clients' projects. Reselling or redistributing the template file itself is not permitted.
