🚀 Overview Automate your social media content creation with this powerful n8n workflow! Generate engaging, viral-style carousels for Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, or X (Twitter) in minutes.

Output examples:

✨ Features AI-Powered Content:** Utilizes xAI Grok to generate witty, substantive, 7-slide carousel content based on a theme and CTA. Multi-Platform Ready:* Perfect for Instagram carousels, TikTok carousels, LinkedIn carousels, and X (Twitter) threads. Automated Design: Overlays AI-generated text onto your chosen background image, creating visually consistent slides. Easy Customization:* Adapt the AI persona, font styles, colors, and background images to match your brand. Google Drive Integration:** Seamlessly downloads your background template and uploads finished carousel slides. No Code Automation:** Set up once and generate endless content with minimal effort.

💡 How it Works Input Trigger: Provide a theme and call to action (CTA) via a webhook or manual trigger. Content Generation: The AI (acting as "The Carousel Cynic") writes 7 distinct slides, each with a provocative title and a detailed description, formatted for maximum engagement. Image Assembly: Downloads a base background image from Google Drive. Loops through each of the 7 AI-generated slides. Uses the Edit Image node to dynamically add the slide's title and description to the background. Outputs sequentially numbered .png files (e.g., 1.png, 2.png). Output & Storage: Uploads all final carousel images to a specified folder in your Google Drive, ready for publishing.

🛠️ Setup Steps xAI Credentials: Add your xAI API Key to the xAI Grok Chat Model node. Google Drive Integration: Connect your Google Drive OAuth2 credentials. In the Download file node, update the File ID to point to your desired blank background image. In the Upload file node, select the Google Drive folder where you want to save the generated carousels. Customization (Optional): Adjust AI persona in the AI Agent node's "System Prompt." Modify fontSize, fontColor, positionX, and positionY in the Params Style Config node to perfectly align text on your background images.
