Job Posting Creation
New form submission? The agent fetches a Word template from Dropbox, fills it with job details via Foxit API, and generates the final PDF.
What it does
Receive a ready-to-email job posting instantly when you submit new details through your form. The agent automatically pulls the correct template from Dropbox, fills it with your information, and generates a professional PDF for immediate use.
Step by step
- Configure a form trigger to capture job title, description, and location fields.
- Set up a Dropbox node to retrieve the specific Word template file ID.
- Encode the downloaded Word document content into base64 format for transmission.
- Send an HTTP POST request to the Foxit API endpoint with the encoded data and PDF generation parameters.
Where the LLM does the work
- Generate professional job description text based on brief role summaries provided in the form input.
- Refine raw job titles or descriptions to ensure consistent tone and formatting before sending to the API.
- Structure the JSON payload for the Foxit API by mapping form fields to the correct template placeholders.
Watch out for
The Dropbox file size limit may be exceeded if the Word template is too large, so optimize the template assets or use a smaller base document.
Misaligned placeholders in the Word template will result in missing data in the final PDF, so verify field names match exactly between the form and the template.

You are helping me build the following AI agent workflow. ## Goal Job Posting Creation: New form submission? The agent fetches a Word template from Dropbox, fills it with job details via Foxit API, and generates the final PDF. ## Specification - What it does: Receive a ready-to-email job posting instantly when you submit new details through your form. The agent automatically pulls the correct template from Dropbox, fills it with your information, and generates a professional PDF for immediate use. - Trigger: Triggered by an event (Event · on form submission) - Autonomy: Fully hands-off - Expected setup effort: about an afternoon - Tools/services involved: - Dropbox: Store Word template and download PDF - HTTP Request: Call Foxit Document Generation API ## Known pitfalls, handle each one explicitly in your implementation 1. The Dropbox file size limit may be exceeded if the Word template is too large, so optimize the template assets or use a smaller base document. 2. Misaligned placeholders in the Word template will result in missing data in the final PDF, so verify field names match exactly between the form and the template. ## Reference implementation https://n8n.io/workflows/6144 (workflow template) Fetch and inspect this before building. If it matches my stack, adapt it; if not, rebuild the pattern with my tools. ## Process requirements 1. Before building: ask me which of the listed tools I actually use and what my platform is (n8n / Make / code / other). Do not assume. 2. Adapt the pattern to my answers; do not force the reference stack. 3. Address every pitfall above; tell me how you handled each. 4. Provide a test plan I can run before letting this touch real data. 5. Ask before any step that sends messages, modifies data, or spends money.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use a different Cloud Storage than Dropbox?
Yes. Dropbox is only the example cloud storage in this recipe. The same flow works with Google Cloud Storage, Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive and Nextcloud. Swap the cloud storage connection and keep the rest of the setup as written.
Want this running in your business?
This is what I do. I design and build AI agents like this one, and keep them running. If you want it set up for your team instead of doing it yourself, get in touch.
