Generate Shopify Listings from Images
Uploads product images to Google Drive and automatically generates SEO-optimized listings for Shopify via Airtable tracking.
What it does
You upload product images to Google Drive and instantly receive SEO-optimized listings for your Shopify store. The system analyzes each image with AI to create titles, descriptions, and metadata, saving the data in Airtable before automatically publishing everything to your shop without manual work.
Step by step
- Configure the Google Drive trigger to watch a specific folder for new image files.
- Set up the Airtable base with fields matching the expected JSON structure from the LLM output.
- Map the Shopify API endpoints to create products and handle variant assignments programmatically.
Where the LLM does the work
- Prompt the Gemini model to extract specific product attributes like color, material, and style from visual data.
- Instruct the LLM to generate SEO-optimized titles and descriptions that adhere to brand voice guidelines.
- Refine the JSON output structure to ensure it strictly matches the schema required by the Shopify API.
Watch out for
Image resolution can confuse attribute detection so include a preprocessing step to enhance clarity or provide multiple angles.
Shopify has strict character limits for titles and descriptions which requires adding length validation logic before submission.

You are helping me build the following AI agent workflow. ## Goal Generate Shopify Listings from Images: Uploads product images to Google Drive and automatically generates SEO-optimized listings for Shopify via Airtable tracking. ## Specification - What it does: You upload product images to Google Drive and instantly receive SEO-optimized listings for your Shopify store. The system analyzes each image with AI to create titles, descriptions, and metadata, saving the data in Airtable before automatically publishing everything to your shop without manual work. - Trigger: Run manually (Manual or Scheduled) - Autonomy: Fully hands-off - Expected setup effort: about an afternoon - Tools/services involved: - Google Drive: Accessing source images - Airtable: Tracking workflow status and data - Google Gemini Chat Model: Generating product titles and descriptions - Shopify: Creating products via API ## Known pitfalls, handle each one explicitly in your implementation 1. Image resolution can confuse attribute detection so include a preprocessing step to enhance clarity or provide multiple angles. 2. Shopify has strict character limits for titles and descriptions which requires adding length validation logic before submission. ## Reference implementation https://n8n.io/workflows/10008 (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 Google Drive?
Yes. Google Drive is only the example cloud storage in this recipe. The same flow works with Dropbox, Google Cloud Storage, 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.
