Convert your customer satisfaction into high-converting social media content with this fully automated social proof pipeline. This workflow scans your database for top-tier reviews, generates a branded quote card, and publishes it directly to Instagram, ensuring a consistent stream of credibility for your brand. 🎯 What This Workflow Does This template manages the entire lifecycle of a testimonial post, from data retrieval to final notification: 🔄 Review Dispatch Automation Schedule Trigger:** Automatically fires daily at 10:00 AM; cadence can be adjusted via cron expression. Airtable — Fetch Review:** Retrieves the oldest 5-star, unposted record using a specific filter formula to prevent duplicates. IF — Has Valid Review?:** Validates the data; the workflow exits gracefully if no new reviews are found and only proceeds when a 5-star review is ready. ✍️🎨 Dynamic Asset Generation Code — Prepare Payload:** Formats review data into a JSON body, mapping fields like name and truncated text to Bannerbear layers while generating the final Instagram caption. HTTP — Create Image Job:** Submits the request to the Bannerbear API and retrieves a unique job uid for asynchronous processing. 🔁 Status Verification & Media Hosting HTTP — Poll Status:** Regularly checks the job status via the Bannerbear API to see if the rendering is finished. IF — Image Ready?:** Confirms completion; if still processing, it triggers a "Wait 3s + re-poll" loop for up to 5 retries before passing the image_url forward. uploadtourl Bridge:** Mandatory CDN step that uploads the rendered image binary and returns a stable public URL, which is required for Instagram's API to access the file. 📸 Instagram Publishing & Tracking IG — Create & Publish:** Executes the two-step Instagram Graph API flow to create a media container and publish it to your feed after a safe 6-second buffer. Airtable — Mark as Posted:** Updates the original record with the Post ID and timestamp to prevent duplicate posting. Slack Notification:** Sends a final team alert with a preview of the card and the live link. ✨ Key Features Adaptive Polling:** Instead of a static wait time, the workflow intelligently polls Bannerbear until the image is confirmed ready. Automated CDN Bridge:** Uses uploadtourl to bypass Instagram's rejection of base64/binary payloads by providing a direct public URL. Intelligent Truncation:** Automatically shortens long reviews to 180 characters to ensure perfect readability on your branded quote card. Full Audit Trail:** Every post is logged back to Airtable with its live Instagram ID and CDN URL for easy reporting. 💼 Perfect For SaaS Companies:** Showcasing user feedback and "Love letters" from customers. E-commerce Brands:** Sharing 5-star product reviews to build buyer confidence. Service Providers:** Highlighting client testimonials on a regular schedule. Digital Marketers:** Automating the "Social Proof" pillar of a social media strategy. 🔧 What You'll Need Required Integrations Bannerbear:** API key and a Template ID with layers named reviewer_name, review_text, and star_label. Instagram Graph API:** A Business or Creator account access token. uploadtourl:** Credentials configured in n8n for mandatory media hosting. Airtable:** A base with a Reviews table containing fields for the name, text, and rating. An n8n automation workflow template by Jitesh Dugar.
