# Manage social media posts in Airtable via chat with AI agent
This automation enables teams using Airtable as a CMS to manage content through natural language chat interactions. Using a LangChain AI agent powered by OpenAI and running on n8n, the workflow performs CRUD operations on social media post records — reducing manual effort and accelerating content workflows.
## Who it´s for
- Marketers managing Airtable content via chat
- Content managers automating social media publishing
- Product teams using Airtable as a CMS
- Developers implementing MCP tools for database interaction
## What the automation does
- Receives a text message from a chat interface
- Routes the input to a LangChain agent with short-term memory and OpenAI’s GPT-4o model
- The agent determines the required action: search, create, update, or delete
- Executes the operation in the Airtable ´Social Posts´ table via MCP tools
- Returns results to the user through an SSE endpoint
- Supports conditional checks (e.g., whether an image is needed for a post)
## What´s included
- Ready-to-use n8n workflow
- Trigger and handler logic based on chat_message_received and mcp_server_trigger
- Integrations with Airtable, OpenAI API, MCP Server, and SSE
- Basic setup and adaptation guide
## Requirements for setup
- n8n instance with external API access
- Airtable account with a ´Social Posts´ table and required fields
- OpenAI API key
- Configured MCP server with SSE support
- Access to environment variables and endpoint configuration
## Benefits and outcomes
- Simplified content management without direct Airtable access
- Reduced time on routine record operations
- Natural language control over database entries
- Increased team engagement via chat interface
- Flexibility to extend agent logic for other use cases
- Compatibility with MCP infrastructure for future automations
