Social Media Video Production: YouTube Short Form Clips with Vizard AI

This workflow automates YouTube content creation using Vizard AI and OpenAI, utilizing Schedule Trigger, RSS Feed Read, HTTP Request, Google Sheets, OpenAI, and Gmail nodes. It monitors YouTube channels, processes videos into short-form clips, generates viral captions, logs data, and sends notifications, ideal for social media content production. Install n8n from n8n.io for self-hosting or sign up at cloud.n8n.io for hosted setup. Create a Google Cloud account at console.cloud.google.com for OAuth2 credentials for Google Sheets ('Vizard Submission Logger', 'Content Database Manager', 'Error Logger') and Gmail ('Notification System') nodes. Obtain a Vizard AI API key from vizard.ai and an OpenAI API key from openai.com for HTTP Request ('Vizard AI Processor', 'Vizard Project Retriever') and OpenAI ('AI Caption Generator') nodes. Configure environment variables in the Set node ('Content Session Manager'): YOUTUBE_CHANNEL_ID, VIZARD_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY, CONTENT_DATABASE_SPREADSHEET_ID, and WEBHOOK_AUTH_KEY. Set up the Webhook node ('Vizard Results Webhook') with a secure API key in the header and register the webhook URL at vizard.ai. Test by manually running the Schedule Trigger node. Check Google Sheets ('Content Database Manager') for content_status='ready_for_publishing', generatedCaption, and viralScore. Verify Gmail node for completion emails. Missing VIZARD_API_KEY causes a 401 error in HTTP Request nodes, logged in Google Sheets ('Error Logger'). Invalid YouTube URLs trigger failures in the Condition node ('YouTube Data Validator'). Deploy by activating the workflow and ensuring environment variables are set. Monitor Google Sheets for content_id, clip_item_id, and processing_timestamp. If clip data is invalid, the Condition node ('Clip Quality Validator') routes to the Error Processor, logging error_message and recovery_action for debugging.
