Generate & Upload an Audio Summary of a WordPress (or Woocommerce) Article

This workflow automates the process of summarizing or transcribing a WordPress article, converting the text into speech using Eleven Labs API, and uploading the resulting MP3 file back to WordPress.

How It Works Trigger – The workflow starts manually when the user clicks “Test Workflow”. Retrieve Article – It fetches a WordPress article based on a given post ID. Summarize or Transcribe – An LLM (GPT-4o-mini) generates either: • A summary of the article, or • A full transcription, depending on the chosen prompt. Generate Speech – The processed text (summary or transcription) is converted into an MP3 audio file using Eleven Labs API. Upload MP3 to WordPress – The generated MP3 file is uploaded to WordPress. Update WordPress Post – The article is updated with an embedded audio player, allowing users to listen to the summary or transcription.

Set Up Steps WordPress API Credentials • Configure your WordPress API credentials in n8n. Eleven Labs API Key • Obtain an API Key from Eleven Labs and configure it in n8n. Choose Between Summary or Transcription • Modify the AI prompt to either generate a summary or keep the full transcription. Test the Workflow • Run the workflow and ensure the MP3 file is correctly generated and uploaded.

💡 Customization Options • Modify the AI prompt to switch between a summary and a transcription. • Change the voice model in Eleven Labs for different speech styles. • Adjust output format to higher/lower quality MP3.

🚀 This automation improves content accessibility and engagement by allowing users to listen to a summarized or full version of the article.
