🧲 AI-Powered Lead Magnet Idea Generation from Topic List

This n8n workflow automatically generates lead magnet ideas based on topics and website URLs stored in a Google Sheet. It uses the Lead Magnet Idea Generator AI API to produce relevant, value-driven ideas that marketers can turn into checklists, guides, templates, and more.

🔧 What This Workflow Does

1. Monitors a Google Sheet for new or updated rows using a Drive trigger.
2. Reads all rows and identifies entries where:
   • The Topic column is not empty
   • The Content (idea) column is empty
3. Sends a request to the Lead Magnet Idea Generator AI API:
   • Input: Topic + Website URL
   • Output: AI-generated lead magnet idea
4. Writes the idea back to the same Google Sheet with a timestamp.
5. Repeats the process automatically every minute.
