🎬 Create lead nurture video clips from webinar recordings using WayinVideo AI and Google Drive

⚡ 69 views · 🎬 Content Creation & Video

Description

Paste your webinar recording URL into a simple form — and this workflow does the rest automatically. WayinVideo AI scans the full recording and extracts the most engaging clip segments, ready for your lead nurture campaigns. Each clip is downloaded and saved directly to your Google Drive folder with no manual effort. Built for marketers, agencies, and growth teams who run webinars and want to repurpose content at scale without editing software.

What This Workflow Does

Setup Requirements

Tools You’ll Need

Estimated Setup Time: 5–10 minutes

Step-by-Step Setup

1. Get Your WayinVideo API Key

WayinVideo is the AI engine that finds and clips the best moments from your webinar.

> ⚠️ This API key appears in two nodes — Submit (node 2) and Poll (node 4). Replace it in both or the workflow will fail on the polling step.

2. Connect Google Drive (OAuth2)

3. Set Your Google Drive Folder ID

4. Activate the Workflow

How It Works (Step by Step)

Step 1 — Form: Collect Webinar Details The workflow starts when you fill out a hosted n8n form. You provide four things: the webinar recording URL, the topic or title, your company name, and the maximum number of clips you want generated. Once submitted, all this data is passed to the next step.

Step 2 — Submit Clipping Task to WayinVideo The workflow sends your recording URL to the WayinVideo API using a POST request. It also sends the project name, clip limit, resolution setting (HD 720p), and caption preferences. WayinVideo returns a Job ID that is used to track the processing status in the next steps.

Step 3 — Wait 45 Seconds The workflow pauses for 45 seconds. This gives WayinVideo time to begin processing the video before the first status check. Checking too early would return an empty result.

Step 4 — Poll for Clip Results Using the Job ID from Step 2, the workflow calls the WayinVideo results endpoint to check if the clips are ready. The response either contains completed clip data or an empty result.

Step 5 — Clips Ready? (Smart Retry Loop) The workflow checks whether the result data is populated:

> This retry loop runs every 45 seconds until WayinVideo finishes. For longer webinars (60+ minutes) this may take several cycles — this is completely normal.

Step 6 — Extract Each Clip A Code step splits the clips array into individual items. For each clip it extracts the title, export link, engagement score, tags, description, and start/end timestamps. Each clip then flows through the next steps independently.

Step 7 — Download the Clip File For each clip, the workflow fetches the export link from WayinVideo and downloads the video file directly as a binary file attachment.

Step 8 — Upload to Google Drive Each downloaded clip file is uploaded to your configured Google Drive folder. The filename is set automatically using the AI-generated clip title from Step 6 — so your Drive folder stays organised without any manual renaming.

✅ Scalable batch processing — Multiple clips are processed and uploaded in a single workflow run automatically

Customisation Options

Change clip length for social media In the 2. WayinVideo — Submit Clipping Task node, change target_duration from DURATION_30_60 to DURATION_15_30 to generate shorter clips optimised for Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts.

Enable vertical video reframing In the same Submit node, set enable_ai_reframe to true to let WayinVideo automatically crop and reframe clips to a vertical 9:16 format — ready for mobile-first platforms without any editing.

Change output language Set target_lang in the Submit node to hi, es, fr, or de to receive captions and AI output in a different language — useful for international webinars.

Organise clips by client or campaign Add a Set node before the Google Drive upload step to dynamically build a folder path based on the brand name submitted in the form. This keeps clips from different clients separated automatically.

Send clip links by email after upload Add a Gmail node after the 8. Google Drive — Upload Clip step to email the Google Drive link of each clip to your team or client as soon as the upload is complete.

Add a Slack notification when done Place a Slack node at the end of the workflow to send a summary message to a channel once all clips are uploaded — including the clip titles and Drive links — so your team knows when new content is ready.

Troubleshooting
