Automated Video Generation from JSON with n8n and Creatomate

Описание и применение

Автоматизированный процесс создания видео из JSON с помощью n8n и Creatomate, включая рендеринг, проверку статуса и дальнейшую публикацию.

Manually editing videos is time‑consuming and limits scalability.

The workflow automates video creation from JSON, reduces manual effort, and integrates downstream actions like emailing or cloud upload.

Create n8n workflow with a manual trigger
Add Edit Fields node to supply JSON video definition
Add HTTP Request node to POST JSON to https://api.creatomate.com/v2/renders with Authorization header
Add Wait node (e.g., 15s) to allow rendering
Add HTTP Request node to GET render status using render ID
Add Switch node to route on status: succeeded, failed, or being processed
On succeeded: add node to send video URL via email or upload to cloud
On being processed: loop back to Wait node for polling
On failed: send Slack notification

You can generate the JSON in any way you like – such as from a database, a spreadsheet, or other apps connected through n8n.

Add a Switch node to route the workflow based on the render status.
