Prerequisites
- n8n account
- Slack workspace
- Ad platforms connected
Connect the required accounts and your AI assistant, then confirm the workspace and client context. Open a recipe for its prerequisites, prompts and expected output. Treat durations and time savings as editorial estimates, not guarantees. Check proposed writes before approving them. Recipes involving another service need a separate connection to that service.

Workflows used
Prompts
Use these prompts in your connected AI assistant. Replace account names, dates and targets as needed. Read the result before following a recommendation or approving a write.
n8n Workflow Setup
Help me set up an n8n workflow that checks budget pacing daily and sends a Slack alert if any campaign is more than 15% over or under pacing. Show me the workflow structure.
Expected output: n8n workflow configuration with trigger, API calls, and Slack action
Automation
This recipe is marked as suitable for automation. It still needs a configured scheduler or automation service, account access and appropriate approval for writes. Saving a prompt or workflow does not schedule it.
