Schedule the content calendar: PostgreSQL
Runs on a schedule across PostgreSQL, Slack and Google Sheets, runs the text through an AI chain, then reads the feed and keeps only what is new. Built for captions, around a "Read Source Feed" step, in 22 documented nodes.
Schedule the content calendar with PostgreSQL and Slack automatically. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Social Scheduler' pattern for content creation & media. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 22 nodes across PostgreSQL, 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 PostgreSQL and Slack in step for captions, without anyone re-typing a row
- ✓Safe to re-run: records already in PostgreSQL or Slack are skipped, across all 22 nodes of this captions build
- ✓A failed PostgreSQL or Slack call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 22 nodes in this captions build
- ✓The captions AI step is isolated from PostgreSQL, so models swap without touching the other 22 nodes
- ✓Fans the same result out to Google Sheets in the same run, for captions
Use cases
- →Teams keeping PostgreSQL and Slack aligned by hand for captions
- →Captions work where "Read Source Feed" is still a manual step before PostgreSQL
- →Captions work that only reaches PostgreSQL on a schedule, when someone remembers to start it
Integrations
Workflow preview (22 nodes)
The template's actual node layout and connections. Node parameters and credential slots unlock with the download.
What's inside (22 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
Production levelProduction-grade: idempotency, dead-letter handling, and reconciliation included.
- •Marking rows published only after the post succeeds
- •Moving data between Slack, PostgreSQL and Google Sheets in a single run
- •Adding retries and an explicit error path to external calls
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 (PostgreSQL, Slack, Google Sheets, HTTP / REST API). 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.
