Discord and OpenAI integration

Save yourself the work of writing custom integrations for Discord and OpenAI and use n8n instead. Build adaptable and scalable Communication, AI, and Langchain workflows that work with your technology stack. All within a building experience you will love.

How to connect Discord and OpenAI

  • Step 1: Create a new workflow
  • Step 2: Add and configure nodes
  • Step 3: Connect
  • Step 4: Customize and extend your integration
  • Step 5: Test and activate your workflow

Step 1: Create a new workflow and add the first step

In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.

Step 2: Add and configure Discord and OpenAI nodes

You can find Discord and OpenAI in the nodes panel. Drag them onto your workflow canvas, selecting their actions. Click each node, choose a credential, and authenticate to grant n8n access. Configure Discord and OpenAI nodes one by one: input data on the left, parameters in the middle, and output data on the right.

Step 3: Connect Discord and OpenAI

A connection establishes a link between Discord and OpenAI (or vice versa) to route data through the workflow. Data flows from the output of one node to the input of another. You can have single or multiple connections for each node.

Step 4: Customize and extend your Discord and OpenAI integration

Use n8n's core nodes such as If, Split Out, Merge, and others to transform and manipulate data. Write custom JavaScript or Python in the Code node and run it as a step in your workflow. Connect Discord and OpenAI with any of n8n’s 1000+ integrations, and incorporate advanced AI logic into your workflows.

Step 5: Test and activate your Discord and OpenAI workflow

Save and run the workflow to see if everything works as expected. Based on your configuration, data should flow from Discord to OpenAI or vice versa. Easily debug your workflow: you can check past executions to isolate and fix the mistake. Once you've tested everything, make sure to save your workflow and activate it.

  • Discord Notification: Posts video announcements along with their AI generated summaries to a specified Discord channel using a webhook.

Set up steps

  1. Configure YouTube RSS Feed: Set up the RSS feed node to detect new video uploads. Add your YouTube channel ID to the URL in the first node: https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=YOUR_CHANNEL_ID.
  2. Connect OpenAI Account: To enable AI summary generation, connect your OpenAI account in n8n.
  3. Set Up Discord Webhook: Create a webhook in your Discord server and configure it in the Discord node.
  4. Design the Message: Format the Discord message as you like to include the video title, link, and the AI generated summary.

Speed Up Social Media Banners With BannerBear.com

This n8n workflow shows an easy way to automate the creation of social media assets using AI and a service like BannerBear. Designed for the busy marketer, leveraging AI image generation capabilities can help cut down production times and allow reinvesting into higher quality content. How it works This workflow generates social media banners for online events. Using a form trigger, a user can define the banner text and suggest an image to be generated. This request is passed to OpenAI's Dalle-3 image generation service to produce a relevant graphic for the event banner. This generated image is uploaded and sent to BannerBear where a template will use it and the rest of the form data to produce the banner. BannerBear returns the final banner which can now be used in an assortment of posts and publications. Requirements A BannerBear.com account and template is required An OpenAI account to use the Dalle-3 service. Customising the workflow We've only shown a small section of what BannerBear has to offer. With experimentation and other asset generating services such as AI audio and video, you should be able to generate more than just static banners!
