💡 Pro Tip — Since TikTok doesn’t have a public API, getting data usually means fragile HTTP scraping. ScraperNode is a community node that gives you clean JSON for TikTok profiles, videos, and comments — drop it into your workflow and skip the parsing.
Description
What This Workflow Does
Automatically extract viral moments from YouTube videos and publish to social media platforms.
Quick Start Guide
1. Configure Settings
Open the Configuration node and fill in:
- Vizard AI API Key (required)
- Scheduled Publish Time (optional, Unix timestamp format e.g., 1767605047792)
- Viral Score Threshold (0-10, filters clips by viral potential)
- Export Mode settings (auto_publish or download)
2. Execute & Submit
Click Execute Workflow, enter the YouTube video URL in the form, and submit to start the automation.
How It Works
The workflow follows these steps:
- Form Submission - You provide a YouTube video URL
- AI Processing - Vizard AI analyzes the video and extracts potential viral clips
- Viral Scoring - Each clip receives a viral potential score (0-10)
- Filtering - Only clips above your threshold score proceed
- Publishing Decision - Based on your settings, clips are either:
- Scheduled for future posting at your specified time
- Posted immediately to social media
- Downloaded for manual review
Prerequisites
Before using this workflow:
- Vizard AI account with API key (get from vizard.ai)
- Social media account credentials (if using auto_publish mode)
- Active n8n instance
Configuration Parameters
vizard_api_key (required) Your Vizard AI API key for video processing
viral_score_threshold (default: 5) Minimum score for clips to be published (range: 0-10). Lower values allow more clips through, higher values are more selective.
export_mode (required)
Choose auto_publish or download
schedule_time (optional) Unix timestamp for scheduled publishing (e.g., 1767605047792). Leave empty for instant posting. You can convert dates to timestamps at epochconverter.com
Tips for Best Results
💡 Default threshold of 5 is moderate - increase to 7-8 for only top-quality clips, or lower to 3-4 for more volume
💡 Test with download mode first before enabling auto_publish
💡 Use scheduled publishing during peak engagement hours
💡 Longer videos (10+ minutes) typically generate more clip options
💡 To get Unix timestamp: visit epochconverter.com or use new Date('2025-01-15 14:00').getTime() in browser console
Troubleshooting
Workflow stuck at “Wait” node? Check your Vizard API key is valid and has available credits
No clips generated? Try lowering the viral_score_threshold to 3-4 or use a different video with more dynamic content
Publishing failed? Verify social media credentials are properly configured in the workflow
Wrong publish time? Double-check your Unix timestamp is in milliseconds (13 digits), not seconds (10 digits)
