Etsy Unboxing Video n8n Workflow: Kling 3.0 + OpenAI + SocialRobot

Turn Etsy-style photos into a vertical unboxing video—automatically with n8n, Kling 3.0, OpenAI, and SocialRobot

This n8n workflow takes an Etsy-inspired product submission (photos + details), crops the images into a 9:16 reveal sequence, renders a vertical unboxing video using Kling 3.0 on fal, and delivers the result to TikTok as a draft via SocialRobot.

What this workflow does

• Receives inputs via an n8n form: product details and uploaded images.
• Organizes photos for an Etsy-style shot: sorts uploads into product, optional packaging, and extra reference photos, then prepares a 9:16 crop plan.
• Uploads and crops with fal: stores images in fal storage and runs fal’s crop utility to generate cropped frame images.
• Validates images and selects a plan: chooses a unboxing plan (using the packaging photo) or a product-reveal plan (without packaging).
• Optionally uses OpenAI: generates shot prompts and multi-platform captions.
• Renders a vertical video with Kling 3.0: submits an image-to-video job to fal using the packaging photo as the first frame and the product photo as the last frame, then polls for completion.
• Downloads and prepares for TikTok: verifies MP4 duration and file size limits.
• Uploads to TikTok as a draft with a prepared caption using SocialRobot.
• Fails safely: stops with a clear, readable error if photo validation, fal upload/crop, Kling render, download/checks, or SocialRobot delivery fails.

Use cases

• Create consistent Etsy-style unboxing/reveal content from customer-ready product photo sets.
• Automate vertical video production for SaaS e-commerce marketing teams running batch campaigns.
• Generate TikTok draft content quickly for product launches using standardized framing and prompts.

Technical details

• Integrations: fal (file storage, crop utility, Kling 3.0 image-to-video), OpenAI (optional text), SocialRobot (TikTok draft upload).
• n8n nodes used: if, set, code, wait, switch, sticky note.
• fal setup: create a fal API key and add it as an HTTP Header Auth credential using Authorization: Key YOUR_FAL_KEY on fal HTTP requests.
