Introduction

Welcome to the course!! In this very brief introduction I go through what you can expect from the course. This course is beginner friendly, so if you have never used any of the tools you see in the video then don't panic I will be taking you through everything step by step.

In this video I take you through creating your Make account and take you through the application interface. You can find a link to sign up in the resources below.

In this video I will take you through how to create you Airtable account and connect it to Make. A link to Airtable is in the resources section.

In this video I take you through the process of creating a Anthropic account and connecting it to Make. A link to the Anthropic console is in the resources section.

In this video I take you through how to create the database structure.

In this video I take you through how to install the customs app I have created that will allow you yo use Fal.ai to create images for our posts. The link the install is in the resources below.

Now that we have everything setup, it is time to build the automation, I will take you through step by step how to build this automation.

All of he prompts are within the resources section, each prompt is split in to two sections, this is shown as content 1 and content 2 in the text files, this also corresponds to what is shown in the AI module.

In this video I take you through how we can test the automation we have just created and also how to process posts in bulk.

In this video I take you through how to automate the scenarios that we have built so you no longer need to manually trigger the post creation process, it will now work on a periodic timescale.

You may find that Airtable is slower at updating your base with the image ID than Fal is at producing the image for you. This will cause an error on the second scenario as the search records module is unable to find the image ID within your base.

This video shows you 2 options on how you can fix this issue if you have it, or you if everything is running fine you can still add this in to provide some redundancy into the automation to ensure it always runs smoothly.
