Automated Instagram Reels Workflow

This workflow automates the process of creating and posting Instagram Reels, combining Google Drive, AI, Airtable, and the Facebook Graph API. It supports two content creation paths: Scheduled Random Video Selection & Posting Selects a random video from a Google Drive folder named "Random video mover" based on a schedule. Moves the video to a processing folder for posting. Manual Upload Trigger & Posting Watches a specific Google Drive folder ("n8n reels automation on instagram"). Triggers the workflow when a new video is uploaded. Core Process (applies to both paths) Download Video from Google Drive. AI Caption Generation with Google Gemini, using the file name as context. The AI creates concise captions with hashtags and a call-to-action. Airtable Logging to store video name, caption, and URL. Instagram Reels Posting via the Facebook Graph API.
