This article provides a complete, practical walkthrough of the Http Twitter Automation Scheduled n8n agent. It connects HTTP Request, Webhook across approximately 1 node(s). Expect a Intermediate setup in 15-45 minutes. One‑time purchase: €29.

What This Agent Does

This agent orchestrates a reliable automation between HTTP Request, Webhook, handling triggers, data enrichment, and delivery with guardrails for errors and rate limits.

It streamlines multi‑step processes that would otherwise require manual exports, spreadsheet cleanup, and repeated API requests. By centralizing logic in n8n, it reduces context switching, lowers error rates, and ensures consistent results across teams.

Typical outcomes include faster lead handoffs, automated notifications, accurate data synchronization, and better visibility via execution logs and optional Slack/Email alerts.

How It Works

The workflow uses standard n8n building blocks like Webhook or Schedule triggers, HTTP Request for API calls, and control nodes (IF, Merge, Set) to validate inputs, branch on conditions, and format outputs. Retries and timeouts improve resilience, while credentials keep secrets safe.

   Humor and technology might seem like an odd couple, but with automation tools like n8n, they’re a perfect match. In the world of content creation and social media, consistency is key — even if it’s just for bringing a smile to someone’s face. This article shows how to build an automated workflow using n8n that fetches a random funny image from the Blablagues API and posts it to Twitter every day at 5 PM.
   
   Let’s walk through how this useful (and amusing) automation works.
   
   Overview of the Workflow  
   This n8n workflow consists of four interconnected nodes:
   
   1. A Cron Node that triggers the workflow at 17:00 (5 PM) every day.
   2. An HTTP Request to Blablagues API to fetch a random image joke.
   3. Another HTTP Request to retrieve the image file from the URL provided by the API.
   4. A Twitter Node that posts the image and accompanying text as a tweet.
   
   The result? Your Twitter account becomes a self-sufficient joke machine, delivering a dose of humor to your followers daily.
   
   Step-by-Step Breakdown
   
   1. Timed Trigger with Cron Node (At 17H image jokes)
   The process kicks off at exactly 5 PM every day, thanks to a Cron node in n8n. The Cron node is set to trigger once daily at this hour, meaning you can set it and forget it.
   
   This node ensures consistent delivery, which is essential for engaging users regularly without manual upkeep.
   
   2. Fetch the Joke from Blablagues API (Request blablagues)
   The next step involves making an HTTP request to the Blablagues API with the endpoint:
   https://api.blablagues.net/?rub=images
   
   This API provides humorous content in multiple formats, and in this specific case, it’s fetching from the “images” category. The resulting JSON response contains both the image URL and the accompanying text (i.e., the joke).
   
   The key parts extracted from the API response are:
   
   - Text of the joke: `data.data.content.text`
   - Image media URL: `data.data.content.media`
   
   3. Download the Image File (Recup image)
   n8n takes the image URL from the previous step and uses an HTTP Request node to fetch the image file itself. This node is set to receive the file format response, making it suitable for direct use in the following Twitter node.
   
   It’s worth noting that n8n handles this gracefully without requiring you to manually save or preprocess the image.
   
   4. Tweet the Joke + Image (Tweet image jokes)
   Finally, it’s time to share the fun!
   
   The Twitter node takes the joke text and attaches the downloaded image file. This node uses OAuth1 credentials to authorize access to your Twitter account and publish the tweet.
   
   The text for the tweet is populated dynamically using expressions in n8n:
   {{$node["Request blablagues"].json["data"]["data"]["content"]["text"]}}
   
   The image is attached from the HTTP node handling the image ("Recup image").
   
   Exploring the Blablagues API  
   Blablagues is a French-based humor platform offering jokes, puns, and humorous images via a clean RESTful API. While primarily in French, the humor is accessible and culturally relevant, which can be a fun addition to Twitter feeds that want to bring international flair.
   
   This API delivers content in JSON format with nested fields like `data.data.content.media` and `data.data.content.text`, which are straightforward to parse within n8n workflows.
   
   Twitter Node: Simplifying Social Media Automation  
   The Twitter node makes it easy to post either plain text or tweets with media such as images, videos, or GIFs. Since we’re dealing with a joke that combines text and image, this node bridges perfectly with previous steps by automatically pulling in both elements.
   
   Security Note: Make sure to use secure credential storage for your Twitter OAuth1 API keys. n8n provides a secure credential manager to handle sensitive data.
   
   Use Cases Beyond Jokes  
   While this setup is focused on humor, the architecture can be applied more broadly. Daily visual content like:
   
   - Inspirational quotes
   - Product teasers
   - Daily tips
   - User-generated content
   
   ...can all be automated using similar steps, offering an excellent blueprint for creative and scheduling teams.
   
   Conclusion  
   With just a few nodes, n8n enables a fully automated content creation and distribution system. The Blablagues API injects humor into the mix, while n8n takes care of scheduling, fetching, and posting. Whether you're a developer, a social media manager, or just someone who enjoys a good laugh, this automation is a fun and functional way to spice up your Twitter feed.
   
   Try building this workflow in n8n, and let your Twitter account do the laughing — and tweeting — for you.
   
   Happy automating!

5. Set credentials for each API node (keys, OAuth) in Credentials.
6. Run a test via Execute Workflow. Inspect Run Data, then adjust parameters.
7. Enable the workflow to run on schedule, webhook, or triggers as configured.

Tips: keep secrets in credentials, add retries and timeouts on HTTP nodes, implement error notifications, and paginate large API fetches.

Validation: use IF/Code nodes to sanitize inputs and guard against empty payloads.

Why Automate This with AI Agents

AI‑assisted automations offload repetitive, error‑prone tasks to a predictable workflow. Instead of manual copy‑paste and ad‑hoc scripts, your team gets a governed pipeline with versioned state, auditability, and observable runs.

n8n’s node graph makes data flow transparent while AI‑powered enrichment (classification, extraction, summarization) boosts throughput and consistency. Teams reclaim time, reduce operational costs, and standardize best practices without sacrificing flexibility.

Compared to one‑off integrations, an AI agent is easier to extend: swap APIs, add filters, or bolt on notifications without rewriting everything. You get reliability, control, and a faster path from idea to production.

Best Practices

• Credentials: restrict scopes and rotate tokens regularly.
• Resilience: configure retries, timeouts, and backoff for API nodes.
• Data Quality: validate inputs; normalize fields early to reduce downstream branching.
• Performance: batch records and paginate for large datasets.
• Observability: add failure alerts (Email/Slack) and persistent logs for auditing.
• Security: avoid sensitive data in logs; use environment variables and n8n credentials.

FAQs

Can I swap integrations later? Yes. Replace or add nodes and re‑map fields without rebuilding the whole flow.

How do I monitor failures? Use Execution logs and add notifications on the Error Trigger path.

Does it scale? Use queues, batching, and sub‑workflows to split responsibilities and control load.

Is my data safe? Keep secrets in Credentials, restrict token scopes, and review access logs.
