What it does

This workflow turns logged UGC candidates into outbound rights requests. For each Airtable row awaiting permission, it composes a personalized email that references the specific post, states exactly how the content will be used, and asks the creator to reply with consent. It sends through Gmail and updates the tracker so nothing is asked twice.

When to use it

Use it after detection has populated your clearance tracker and you have creator contact emails on file. It is the outreach stage: it does not interpret replies, only initiates the ask and records that it happened.

How it works

  1. 1A schedule triggers the outreach batch.
  2. 2Airtable returns rows with status "Needs Permission" that have a creator email.
  3. 3OpenAI drafts a personalized request per row, weaving in the creator's name, the post caption, and your usage terms.
  4. 4A logic step skips any row lacking a valid email and routes it back for manual handling.
  5. 5Gmail sends each drafted email to the creator.
  6. 6The workflow updates the Airtable row to "Permission Requested" and stamps the send date.
