Services it uses
Before you upgrade to n8n 3.0
We can't fully verify this one: it relies on 2 community packages, and n8n 3.0 turns unverified community packages off by default (N8N_UNVERIFIED_PACKAGES_ENABLED=false).
- Check that @bufferapp/n8n-nodes-buffer is verified or supports 3.0 (used in Post Reel, Post TikTok).
- Check that n8n-nodes-cloudinary is verified or supports 3.0 (used in Upload to Cloudinary).

Quick overview This workflow pulls queued long-form video URLs from Airtable, sends them to Opus Clip to generate short clips, uploads finished clips to Cloudinary for public hosting, stores them back in Airtable, and posts one clip per slot to Instagram…
