Monitor & Analyze Viral Insta Creators

This workflow is for anyone who wants to find and study popular Instagram Reels. It is helpful for content creators, marketers, or researchers. This workflow automatically finds top Instagram Reels from specific creators, analyzes their content using AI, and saves the details into an Airtable database. This helps users understand what makes a Reel popular without doing it all by hand. First, create accounts with Airtable, Apify, and Google Gemini. Then, replace the placeholder tokens in the workflow nodes with your actual API keys for Apify and Gemini. Configure the Airtable nodes to connect to your specific bases and tables for creators and videos. Lastly, set up the schedule trigger to decide how often the workflow should run. You need accounts for n8n, Airtable, Apify (for Instagram scraping), and Google Gemini (for AI video analysis). You also need basic computer skills to set up API keys and configure the workflow. You can change the list of Instagram creators it monitors by updating your Airtable. You can also change the prompt given to Gemini AI to focus on different aspects of the video analysis. You can adjust how many Reels it fetches and how frequently it runs.
