How it works
How it works This workflow automates the creation and management of a daily space-themed quiz in your Slack workspace. It's a fun way to engage your team and learn something new about the universe every day! Triggers Daily:** The workflow automatically runs at a scheduled time every day. Fetches NASA's Picture of the Day:** It starts by fetching the latest Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) from the official NASA API, including its title, explanation, and image URL. Generates a Quiz with AI:** Using the information from NASA, it prompts a Large Language Model (LLM) like OpenAI's GPT to create a unique, multiple-choice quiz question. Posts to Slack:** The generated quiz is then posted to a designated Slack channel. The bot automatically adds numbered reactions (1️⃣, 2️⃣, 3️⃣, 4️⃣) to the message, allowing users to vote. Waits and Tallies Results:** After a configurable waiting period, the workflow retrieves all reactions on the quiz message. A custom code node then tallies the votes, identifies the users who answered correctly, and calculates the total number of participants. Announces the Winner:** Finally, it posts a follow-up message in the same channel, revealing the correct answer, a detailed explanation, and mentions all the users who got it right. Set up steps This template should take about 10-15 minutes to set up. Credentials: NASA: Add your NASA API credentials in the Get APOD node. You can get a free API key from the NASA API website. OpenAI: Add your OpenAI API credentials in the OpenAI: Create Quiz node. Slack: Add your Slack API credentials to all the Slack nodes. You'll need to create a Slack App with the following permissions: chat:write, reactions:read, and reactions:write. Configuration: In the Workflow Configuration node, set your channelId to the Slack channel where you want the quiz to be posted. You can also customize the quizDifficulty, llmTone, and answerTimeoutMin to fit your audience. Activate Workflow: Once configured, simply activate the workflow. It will run automatically at the time specified in the Schedule Trigger node (default is 21:00 daily).
