1. Download the n8n workflow JSON file.
2. Import the workflow into your n8n instance.
3. n8n Form Trigger: Review the form fields. You can access the form via its production URL once the workflow is active.
4. Set Parameters Node: This node maps form inputs. If you change form field names, update the expressions here. It also contains logic to select a Bannerbear template ID based on form input; customize this or set a static template ID directly in the Bannerbear node.
5. Generate AI Banner Image (OpenAI Node): Enter your OpenAI API Key in the credentials section. Adjust image generation parameters (size, quality) as needed.
6. Upload to Cloudinary Node: Configure the 'Cloudinary API' credentials. Ensure the 'upload_preset' in query parameters matches your Cloudinary setup. The default URL is https://api.cloudinary.com/v1_1/YOUR_CLOUD_NAME/image/upload - replace YOUR_CLOUD_NAME or ensure your credentials handle this.
7. Send to Bannerbear Template Node: Select or create 'Bannerbear account' credentials with your API Key. Update the 'Template ID' field to use your specific Bannerbear template ID. Map the modificationsValues to match the layer names in your Bannerbear template (e.g., placeholder_image, placeholder_text). The image URL from Cloudinary is automatically optimized (f_auto,q_auto).
8. Download Banner Node: This node fetches the generated image from Bannerbear. No configuration is usually needed if the previous node is correct.
9. Discord Node: Select or create 'Discord Bot account' credentials. Enter your 'Guild ID' and 'Channel ID'. Customize the message content using expressions to include event details.
10. Activate the workflow. Test by submitting the n8n form.
