Generate weekly student progress reports with Gemini, Supabase, and WhatsApp

Quick overview This workflow runs weekly to pull student attendance and score data from Supabase, uses Google Gemini to generate per-student performance summaries and attention flags, sends immediate WhatsApp alerts for flagged students, then compiles all summaries into a PDF report, uploads it, and shares it with the coach via WhatsApp. How it works Runs weekly on a schedule. Fetches all student weekly metrics (attendance and scores) from Supabase. Uses Google Gemini to write a short performance summary per student and determine whether the student should be flagged for attention based on attendance and score-drop rules. If a student is flagged, sends a WhatsApp message to the coach and inserts a flag record into Supabase. Aggregates all students’ summaries into a single HTML weekly report. Converts the HTML report to a PDF via an HTTP-based HTML-to-PDF API, uploads the PDF to a file-hosting API, and sends the PDF link/document to the coach via WhatsApp. Logs the report URL to Supabase for recordkeeping. Setup Add Supabase credentials and create the required tables/columns (weekly_student_data, attention_flags, and weekly_reports) referenced by the workflow. Add a Google Gemini (P

Draft personalized cold emails from Google Sheets using Gemini and HubSpot

Quick overview This workflow batch-processes leads from Google Sheets, researches each person and company using Tavily plus Google Gemini, drafts a personalized cold email, then creates/updates the contact in HubSpot with a research note and a saved email draft before marking the lead as Done in the sheet. How it works Runs manually and sets a batch size that controls how many leads to process per run. Reads leads from Google Sheets, skips rows already marked as Done, and normalizes the selected batch into clean lead fields. Processes the batch one lead at a time and uses Tavily search (last 60 days) with Google Gemini to extract the most recent public activity, pain points, and a personalization hook. Cleans and parses the research JSON so it can be reused reliably downstream. Uses Google Gemini to draft a 90–120 word cold outreach email (subject and body) that incorporates the research and offers a free “Automated LinkedIn Post Creator” n8n workflow. Creates or reuses the HubSpot contact, logs a HubSpot note with the research and drafted email, and saves the email as a HubSpot engagement in DRAFT status. Updates the matching row in Google Sheets (by Email) to set Status to “Done

Create Instagram carousels and TikTok slideshows with OpenAI and PostFast

Quick overview This workflow runs on a Mon/Wed/Fri schedule to generate an Instagram carousel or TikTok slideshow using OpenAI (GPT-4o-mini and gpt-image-1), sends the slides to Telegram for approval, and only then uploads the images and schedules the post via PostFast. How it works Runs every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 8am and loads your brand, topics, slide count, platform filter, and Telegram chat ID. Retrieves your connected social accounts from PostFast and keeps only accounts that are connected and match the selected platforms. Uses OpenAI (gpt-4o-mini) to write a carousel as strict JSON containing a caption and slide-by-slide headings, body text, and visual descriptions. Builds per-slide image prompts and uses OpenAI (gpt-image-1) to generate a 1024×1536 portrait image for each slide. Sends the generated slide images to Telegram and waits for you to approve or decline posting. If approved, requests per-account upload URLs from PostFast, uploads each slide image to the provided storage URLs, and schedules one PostFast social post per account with the slides in order and the generated caption. Setup Install and enable the PostFast community node (n8n-nodes-postfast) and
