⚡ 60 views · 📊 Market Research & Insights

💡 Pro Tip — Heads up — if this workflow’s Instagram scraping breaks (it happens whenever Meta updates their frontend), ScraperNode is a community node that handles profiles, posts, reels, and comments without any HTML parsing.

Description

Who is this for?

This template is perfect for:

• AI art enthusiasts who want to stay updated on trending AI-generated artwork
• Content curators looking to automate art discovery
• Japanese-speaking users who want translated captions

What this workflow does

This workflow automatically collects viral AI art posts from Instagram and delivers them to your Telegram with Japanese translations. It runs daily and filters only high-engagement posts to ensure quality content.

Key Features:

• 📸 Collects from 4 AI art hashtags (#AIart, #midjourney, #stablediffusion, #aiartwork)
• 🔥 Filters viral posts only (100+ likes threshold)
• 🇯🇵 Auto-translates captions to Japanese via DeepL
• ⚠️ Sends error alerts to Telegram if something goes wrong
• ⏱️ Built-in rate limiting to avoid API blocks
