RSS to social: automated content generation with Llama 3 & GetLate Publishing

🚀 Automate your social media presence! This workflow duo automatically curates content from your Wallabag RSS feeds, generates platform-specific posts using AI, and publishes them—complete with AI-generated images.

⚙️ Setup & Configuration

Required Credentials & Services: To run this workflow, you will need to set up the following credentials in n8n: Wallabag RSS Feeds: This workflow uses Wallabag as your content curation service. Wallabag is the most cost-effective option—easy to self-host or use as a paid service. You'll need to generate access tokens for RSS feed access. Airtable API Key: To create and update records in your "Content Store" database. LLM Provider API Key: To power the social media content generation. The demo uses Groq (llama-3.3-70b-versatile), but this can be replaced with any preferred LLM (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.). GetLate API Key: To authenticate and post to your social media platforms. Imgbb API Key: To host the AI-generated images. An Image Generation Service API Key: For creating images from prompts. The demo uses Hugging Face (stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0), but this can be swapped for any other service (Fal.ai, Stability AI, etc.).

Key Setup Requirement: Define Your Tagging Convention Before running this workflow, establish a consistent tagging system in Wallabag where each tag corresponds to a specific social media platform. For example: to-share-linkedin for LinkedIn content to-share-bluesky for Bluesky content to-share-instagram for Instagram content

Adding More Feeds & Platforms: New Feeds: Simply duplicate the example sub-workflows and update the RSS feed URL and target platform information for each new tag/platform combination. New Platforms: To add support for additional social platforms, duplicate one of the existing platform sub-workflows (LinkedIn or Bluesky) and update the platform-specific parameters, prompts, and GetLate API settings for your new platform.

Airtable Database Schema: "RSS Feed - Content Store" The workflow uses an Airtable base with the following fields to track content from ingestion to publication: id (Primary Field): Formula, for unique record ID (RECORDID()) audiencetargeted: Long text author: Long text charactercount: Number contentmarkdown: Long text ctaused: Long text feedid: Single line text goalapplied: Long text imagefilename: Singe line text imageid: Single line text imagelink: URL imageprompt: Long text isposted: Number, default is 0 platform: Single line text posttext: Long text suggestedhashtags: Long text title: Long text toneapplied: Long text articleurl: URL

Customizable User Inputs: This workflow is built for flexibility. Key inputs you can customize include: Wallabag RSS Feed URL & Platform Tag: The specific feed and platform-specific tag (e.g., to-share-linkedin) to monitor in Workflow 1. Target Social Platform: Defined per feed in the "Edit Field" node. Content Generation Schedule: The frequency for auto-posting in the Schedule Trigger. Brand Voice & LLM Parameters: The tone, style, and specific instructions for the AI in the "Set Custom SMCG Prompt" node. Platform-Specific Prompts: The template used to generate posts for each social network (Instagram, LinkedIn, etc.). Posting Behavior & Image Generation: Configured within the SMCG (Social Media Content Generation) node. This is where you set the posting mode (immediate vs. draft) and define a boolean for each platform to enable or disable AI-generated images for its posts.
