Transform Images to AI Videos with MiniMax Hailuo 02 & Upload to YouTube/TikTok

This n8n workflow automates the creation and distribution of AI-generated videos from static images and textual prompts. It fetches pending tasks from a Google Sheet (where image URLs and prompts are listed), sends them to the MiniMax Hailuo 02 model to generate short animated videos (default 6 seconds), polls the API until completion, and then uploads the videos to both YouTube and TikTok. Finally, it updates the Google Sheet with video links, metadata, and status for easy tracking.

Key benefits include full automation from input to publication, enabling scalable content creation (dozens of videos per hour), cross-platform posting, AI-optimized SEO titles for better visibility, and batch processing via scheduled triggers (e.g., every 5 minutes). It's highly customizable, with adjustable video durations, and accessible via Google Sheets for non-technical users.

Ideal use cases: Social media managers creating viral gaming clips, lifestyle content creators animating photos, marketers generating promotional videos, or anyone needing quick, high-quality AI videos for YouTube Shorts and TikTok. Saves hours of manual editing and uploading, boosting productivity and reach.
