This workflow monitors a Google Drive folder, analyzes new images with GPT-4o, and sorts them while syncing metadata to Notion.\n\n### How it works\n1. **Watch**: Detects new images uploaded to your \"Inbox\" folder.\n2. **Analyze**: GPT-4o Vision checks for NSFW content, determines the category (Portrait vs. Landscape), and generates descriptive tags.\n3. **Sort**: Moves the file to the appropriate folder based on the category.\n4. **Archive**: Creates a Notion database entry with the image details and sends a notification to Slack.\n\n### Setup steps\n1. **Credentials**: Connect Google Drive, OpenAI, Notion, and Slack.\n2. **Config**: Open the **\"Workflow Configuration\"** node and fill in your folder IDs, Notion Database ID, and Slack Channel ID.\n3. **Notion**: Ensure your database has properties for Category (Select), Description (Text), Tags (Text), and Date."
