Airtable + Orshot Reel Automation (n8n) for Real Estate Posts

Turn Airtable listing updates into branded Instagram & TikTok reels—automatically

This Airtable + Orshot Reel Automation (n8n) workflow watches real estate status changes in Airtable, generates a vertical branded listing video in Orshot, publishes it to Instagram and TikTok, and writes the resulting MP4 URL and post time back to the same Airtable record.

What this workflow does

• Triggers on listing status updates when the Airtable “Status Updated” field changes for a listing record.
• Extracts listing + agent details from the Airtable record (including features, photos, and agent information) and maps them to the Orshot template fields.
• Routes by status using a status-based switch:
  • “Just Listed” → renders a listing reel
  • “Sold” → renders a just-sold reel
• Calls Orshot to render the selected studio template and waits for the MP4 output URL.
• Publishes to social with a status-based caption to your chosen Instagram and TikTok accounts via Orshot.
• Updates Airtable with the Video URL and Posted At time for the record.

Use cases

• When a property becomes Just Listed, automatically generate a branded reel featuring price, features, and agent card.
• When a listing is marked Sold, publish a “Just Sold” reel and store the video link back in Airtable for reporting.
• Real estate teams running on Airtable who want hands-free social posting tied directly to CRM status.

Technical details

• n8n nodes: set, switch, Airtable, sticky note, Airtable Trigger, and thelifeofrishin8n-nodes-orshotorshot.
• Airtable: uses a “Status Updated” Last modified time field plus “Video URL” and “Posted At” to store outputs.
• Orshot templates: the listing reel template (Real Estate Listing Reel – 916-5 scenes) and the corresponding Just Sold template added to your Orshot workspace.

Setup summary: add Airtable credentials in n8n, configure the base/table and watched fields, add Orshot credentials, and import the two templates into Orshot.
