Automate creating, approving, and posting social media content on LinkedIn, Twitter (X), and Instagram with AI-powered content and images with human approvals included.

Main Use Cases:

  1. Automate content creation for LinkedIn, Twitter (X), and Instagram.
  2. Generate platform-specific post text + images using AI.
  3. Enable human approvals at both prompt and content stages.
  4. Automatically publish approved posts across all platforms.
  5. Log every step in Google Sheets for tracking and reporting.

How It Works:

This workflow streamlines the entire social media posting process with AI + approvals. It operates in the following steps:

1. Topic Input

  • A new topic and description are added to Google Sheets.
  • The workflow triggers automatically at scheduled intervals.

2. Prompt Generation

  • AI creates tailored prompts for LinkedIn, Twitter (X), and Instagram.
  • Prompts are stored in Google Sheets and wait for human approval.

3. Content & Image Creation

  • Once prompts are approved, the workflow generates final post copy + images.
  • Platform-specific content is created and logged.

4. Content Approval

  • Posts are paused for final approval before publishing.
  • Rejected content is updated in Sheets without publishing.

5. Automated Posting

  • Approved content is posted automatically:
    • LinkedIn via LinkedIn API
    • Twitter (X) with text + media
    • Instagram using the Graph API

6. Logging

  • Post URLs and statuses are appended to Google Sheets for tracking.
