Search recent AI news with Perplexity and post one headline and link to X.

## Setup

Connect Perplexity in **Find recent AI news** and X in **Post the headline on X**. The X account needs permission to publish. In n8n configure a Header Auth credential named `Authorization` with value `Bearer YOUR_PERPLEXITY_API_KEY` on **Perplexity**, and connect an X account on **Post to X**. Review the question, source-domain filter and schedule before activating one format.

## Behavior

The workflow searches for AI news from the past day, with search restricted to `perplexity.ai`, and asks for one short headline and article link. It posts a nonempty response of at most 200 characters containing a link. Perplexity may generate incorrect or repeated content; the workflow does not independently verify the article or keep post history. Review the account and topic before enabling automatic public posting.

Open Flow runs every 21 hours on its UTC interval grid. n8n uses a 21-hour recurrence starting at minute 00; its scheduler and start time can differ. The source selected a random minute and inherited its instance timezone. A failed or uncertain post may already have been published; check X before retrying. No automatic post retry or deduplication is added.

Inspiration & credits

## Changes to the source

*   Use the current Sonar model and a secret credential instead of a literal key. Validate the headline and link before publishing.
*   Use an explicit minute and UTC starting point, and remove the source’s private error-workflow reference.
