🤖 Automated AI News Video Creation and Social Media Publishing Workflow

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🎯 Overview:

This workflow fully automates the creation and social media distribution of AI-generated news videos. It fetches news, crafts captions, generates avatar videos via HeyGen, stores them, and publishes them across Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube via Postiz.

🔄 WORKFLOW PROCESS:

1. News Fetching: Reads the latest news from an RSS feed.
2. AI Captioning: Generates concise, engaging captions using an AI agent (GPT-4o-mini).
3. Video Generation: Creates an AI avatar video using HeyGen with the generated caption.
4. Video Storage: Downloads the video and uploads it to Google Drive for archival.
5. Data Logging: Records all news and video metadata into Google Sheets.
6. Postiz Upload: Uploads the video to Postiz’s internal storage for publishing.
7. Social Publishing: Fetches Postiz integrations and routes the video to Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube after platform-specific content cleaning.
