Produce short videos on a schedule
Runs on a schedule across Google Sheets and Slack, runs the text through an AI chain, then branches on the check before anything is written. Built for shorts, around a "Stamp & Shape Asset" step, in 19 documented nodes.
Produce short videos with Google Sheets and Slack on autopilot. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Video Production' pattern for content creation & media. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 19 nodes across Google Sheets, Slack. 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. The result is a hands-off process that just works.
Key benefits
- ✓Keeps Google Sheets and Slack in step for shorts, without anyone re-typing a row
- ✓A failed Google Sheets or Slack call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 19 nodes in this shorts build
- ✓The shorts AI step is isolated from Google Sheets, so models swap without touching the other 19 nodes
- ✓Pinned sample data ships with it — run all 19 nodes for shorts before wiring Google Sheets
- ✓19 nodes, each with a doc card explaining what it does for shorts
Use cases
- →Teams keeping Google Sheets and Slack aligned by hand for shorts
- →Shorts work where "Stamp & Shape Asset" is still a manual step before Google Sheets
- →Shorts work that only reaches Google Sheets on a schedule, when someone remembers to start it
Integrations
Workflow preview (19 nodes)
The template's actual node layout and connections. Node parameters and credential slots unlock with the download.
What's inside (19 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 (Google Sheets, Slack). 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.
