You'll need to **select the one you prefer and enable it**.:\n\n### Schedule Trigger \nThis trigger checks at regular intervals (e.g., every 5 minutes) if a new post has been published on your WordPress blog and triggers the workflow accordingly. \n\n\u2705 **Easy to set up** \n\u2705 **Automates AI summaries without manual intervention** \n\n\u26a0\ufe0f If you run the workflow manually once, the AI-generated summaries will be added to Google Sheets and processed in later steps to prevent duplication. \n\n\ud83d\udca1 **Recommended follow-up nodes:** If you choose this trigger, the following nodes are suggested in the template: \n- **`Date & Time - Subtract`**: Subtracts the scheduled interval from the current execution timestamp. For example, if the workflow runs every 5 minutes, it subtracts 5 minutes from the execution time. \n- **`WordPress - Get Posts`**: Uses the output of the `Date & Time - Subtract` node as a filter to retrieve only posts published after the last execution. \n\n### Webhook Trigger \nIf you're familiar with webhooks, you can set up a webhook that triggers when a new post is published. \n\n\u2705 **Faster than scheduled triggers** \n\u2705 **More event-driven** \n\nYou can implement this using either: \n- A **Webhook plugin** on WordPress (not recommended due to plugin dependency). \n- A **PHP function** that triggers the webhook with authentication for security. \n\n\u26a0\ufe0f **Be cautious** with how the webhook is triggered\u2014you may not want it to fire on every post edit. \n\n\ud83d\udca1 **Recommended follow-up nodes for this option:** \n- **`Set Fields - From Webhook Input`**: Configures the fields based on the data sent to the webhook. \n- **`WordPress - Get Post`**: Retrieves the post using the `post_id` received from the webhook, ensuring higher accuracy than the schedule trigger approach. \n"

How to Use an n8n Template

1

Create a New Workflow

Click "New Workflow" in your n8n dashboard to get started.

2

Copy & Paste Template

First, copy this template: Click here to copy the JSON .
Then, in n8n, click the three dots (···) → "Import from file" and paste the JSON code.

3

Customize the Nodes

Go through each node in the workflow to update inputs like spreadsheet IDs, email addresses, or message content. Adjust field mappings to match your data.

4

Grant Access

For nodes that connect to external apps (like Google Sheets or Slack), you'll need to grant access. Connect your accounts using OAuth or an API key and save the credentials in the node.

5

Test It

Run the workflow by clicking "Execute Node" for each step or "Run Once" for the whole thing. Check the right sidebar to inspect data and debug any errors (they'll show up in red).

6

Activate Workflow

Once everything works as expected, click the "Activate" toggle to turn your workflow on. You're all set!
