Periodically checks the generation status until it is completed. Once the image is ready, it is downloaded and analyzed by Google Gemini to generate a viral-ready Instagram caption and hashtags. The final image is uploaded to Google Drive and to Postiz for social media publishing. The caption and image are combined and scheduled for posting on Instagram through the Postiz integration. The process includes conditional logic, waiting intervals, and error handling to ensure reliable execution from input to publication. Set up steps To use this workflow in AlekSystem: Configure credentials: Add RunPod API credentials under httpBearerAuth named “Runpods”. Set up Google Gemini (PaLM) API credentials for caption generation. Add Postiz API credentials for social media posting. Configure Google Drive OAuth2 credentials for image backup. Prepare nodes: Ensure the Form Trigger node is properly set up with the required fields: IMAGE_URL, PROMPT, and FORMAT. Update the RunPod API endpoints in the “Generate selfie” and “Get status clip” nodes if needed. Verify the Google Drive folder ID in the “Upload file” node. Replace XXX in the “Upload to Social” node with a valid Postiz integration ID. Test the flow: Use the pinned test data in the “On form submission” node to simulate a form entry. Activate the workflow and submit the form to trigger the process. Monitor execution in AlekSystem’s workflow view to ensure all nodes run successfully. 👉 Subscribe to my new YouTube channel.
