Workflow Templates

Automate LinkedIn content creation by managing ideas in Google Sheets, generating professional AI-written posts, intelligently selecting relevant Unsplash images, sending drafts for email approval, and publishing directly to LinkedIn. How it works Step 1: Scheduled Sheet Check Workflow runs daily at midnight (customizable to hourly/weekly) Fetches posts from Google Sheet marked with Status = "Ready" Processes one post per run, updates status to "In Progress" Step 2: AI Content Generation GPT-5.1 creates engaging LinkedIn post based on your inputs Generates content with proper hashtags, formatting, and tone Follows your specified content type (tip, story, announcement, etc.) Step 3: Quality Validation Automatically checks character limits (3000 max) Validates minimum hashtag requirements (3+) Loops back to regenerate if quality checks fail Step 4: Email Approval Workflow Formats post as HTML email with professional styling Sends preview to your Gmail for review Waits for your approval response before proceeding Nothing posts without explicit confirmation Step 5: Smart Image Handling If you provided image URL: Downloads from Google Drive, Dropbox, or direct links If no URL is provided: Fetch 10 images from Unsplash and use AI to select the best one. If "Include Image?" is "No": Posts text-only content Automatically converts share links to downloadable formats Step 6: LinkedIn Publishing & Tracking Posts approved content directly to your LinkedIn profile Uses appropriate API endpoint based on whether image is included Updates Google Sheet status to "Posted" for successful posts Marks "Rejected" posts in sheet for review and editing What you'll get Batch content planning**: Queue multiple posts in advance via Google Sheets Consistent posting schedule**: Automated daily publishing without manual work Professional AI content**: GPT-5.1 generates engaging, platform-optimized posts Full approval control**: Review every post before it goes live Flexible image options**: Your images, AI-generated, or text-only Quality assurance**: Built-in checks prevent poorly formatted posts Status tracking**: Monitor what's ready, in progress, rejected, or posted Smart link conversion**: Automatically handles Google Drive and Dropbox share links Requirements Accounts & credentials: OpenAI API key (requires paid plan for GPT-5.1) Gmail account (for approval workflow) Google account (for Sheets integration) LinkedIn account (for publishing) Unsplash API key (for getting images) Google Sheet setup: Create a sheet with these columns: Topic/Subject (required) - Main idea for the post Content Type (required) - e.g., "Tip", "Story", "Announcement" Tone (required) - e.g., "Professional", "Casual", "Inspirational" Target Audience (optional) - Who you're writing for Additional Notes (optional) - Specific points to include Image link for your post (optional) - URL to your image Include Image?

Use case When collecting leads via an online form, you often need to manually add those new leads into your Pipedrive CRM. This not only takes a lot of time but is also error-prone. This workflow automates this tedious work for you. What this workflow does The workflow is triggered each time a form is submitted in n8n. It validates the email address using Hunter.io. If the email is valid, the workflow checks for an existing person with that email in Pipedrive. If no existing person is found, it utilizes Clearbit to enrich the person's information. It then verifies if the person's organization already exists in Pipedrive, creating a new organization if necessary. The workflow then registers the person in Pipedrive. Lastly, it creates a lead in Pipedrive using information from the person and organization. Setup This workflow is very quick to set up. Add your Hunter.io, Clearbit and Pipedrive credentials Click the test workflow button Activate the workflow and use the form trigger production URL to collect your leads in a smart way How to adjust it to your needs Exchange the n8n form trigger with your form of choice (Typeform, Google Forms, SurveyMonkey...) Add a filter criteria to only add new leads if they match certain requirements Remove the email check with Hunter.io if you don't own this tool and expect new form submission to have a correct email anyways Add ways to handle invalid emails or existing Persons

Who is this for? This workflow is designed for developers, DevOps engineers, and automation specialists who manage multiple n8n workflows and need a reliable way to monitor for failures and receive alerts in real time. What problem is this workflow solving? Monitoring multiple workflows can be challenging, especially when silent failures occur. This workflow helps ensure you're immediately informed whenever another workflow fails, reducing downtime and improving system reliability. What this workflow does The solution consists of two parts: ERROR NOTIFIER: A centralized workflow that sends alerts through your chosen communication channel (e.g., Telegram, WhatsApp, Gmail). ERROR ALERTER: A node snippet to be added to any workflow you want to monitor. It captures errors and triggers the ERROR NOTIFIER workflow. Once set up, this system provides real-time error alerts for all integrated workflows. Setup Import both workflows: ERROR NOTIFIER (centralized alert handler) ERROR ALERTER (to be added to your monitored workflows) Add credentials for your preferred alert channel: WhatsApp (OAuth or API) Telegram Gmail Discord Slack Activate the workflows: Ensure ERROR NOTIFIER is active and ready to receive triggers. Paste ERROR ALERTER at the end of each workflow you want to monitor, connecting it to the error branch. Sign up for a free consultation and find out how n8n can help you.

Why use this You need to delete (many) posts on a WordPress website and also delete the featured image associated with each post. Hours of rote work cut into a fraction with this automation. How it works set your wordpress URL in the manual trigger node set your WP post search parameters (WP API returns 10 posts by default; you could also set up pagination for scaling this automation beyond 10 posts per execution) decide (and build) your filter/approval process What you can expect this automation is set up to run the 10 oldest pending posts, with oldest first if you remove the 'Filter' node from the workflow, after each run, another 10 posts will be returned from WP Notes on Filter/Approval This is arbitrary and depends on your own use case. Maybe you have an editor who needs to approve the post deletion. You might want to get approval by email, slack msg or ticketing system. Or maybe you just want to monitor the process and spare specific posts from deletion. I used the Filter node to only grab the first item (itemIndex < 1) which in this case was the oldest pending post. This could also be expanded to two separate workflows: One triggered when a pending post is created that sends an approval request A second triggered by the approval/rejection that either publishes or deletes the post, depending on the approval result This would require another HTTP request, similar to the DELETE post request, that instead publishes the post.

Use case This workflow automatically qualifies great leads from a form and sends them an email 😮.. It also adds the user to Hubspot if not already added and records the outreach. How to setup Add you MadKudu, Hunter, and Gmail credentials Setup your HubSpot Oauth2 creds using n8n docs Set the email content and subject Click the Test Workflow button, enter your email and check the Slack channel Activate the workflow and use the form trigger production URL to collect your leads in a smart way How to adjust this template You may want to raise or lower the threshold for your leads, as you see fit. You also need to update the content (the email and the subject), obviously 😅.

How it works: Did you ever miss any errors in your workflow executions? I did! And I usually only realised a few days or weeks later. 🙈 This template attaches a default error workflow to all your active workflows. From now on, you'll receive a notification whenever a workflow errors and you'll have peace of mind again. It runs every night at midnight so you never have to think of this again. Of course, you can also run it manually. Steps to set up: Update the Gmail note with your own email address, or replace it with any other notification mechanism. You can also use Slack, Discord, Telegram or text messages.. Activate the workflow. Relax. Caveats: I did not add any rate limiting, so if you have a workflow that runs very frequently and it errors... well let's say your mailbox will not be a nice place anymore. Ideas for improvement?
