Automated Video Generation from JSON with n8n and Creatomate

说明与用途

使用 n8n 和 Creatomate 从 JSON 自动生成视频，包括渲染、状态轮询和后续分发。

问题

Manually editing videos is time‑consuming and limits scalability.

结果

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

工作流

• 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

证据

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

来源

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