Transform Long-Form Content into Social Snippets with GPT-4o-mini and Meta Auto-Publishing

Description

📊 Description
Automate your content repurposing workflow by transforming long-form articles, blogs, and newsletters into short, high-signal, AI-ready social media snippets. ✍️🤖 This workflow fetches pending content from Airtable, generates 30-word snippets, data points, and quote-style insights using GPT-4o-mini, and updates the original record with all generated fields. If Facebook is selected as a target platform, the workflow automatically posts the best snippet via the Meta Graph API and logs the result. Perfect for content, marketing, and social media teams scaling daily publishing without manual rewriting. 🚀📣
