The workflow merges them into one realistic selfie-style image and publishes it.\n\n1. Telegram Trigger receives the album. A Code node buffers the two photos (they arrive as two updates) and reads the caption as the prompt.\n2. Configuration centralises every adjustable setting (model, aspect ratio, output format, wait time) plus the runtime values (prompt, chat id, file ids).\n3. Each photo is fetched from Telegram and re-hosted as a stable public URL via [Blotato](https://blotato.com/?ref=firas) media upload.\n4. The two URLs and the prompt are sent to [AtlasCloud](https://www.atlascloud.ai/?ref=8QKPJE) using the Nano Banana 2 Lite edit model. Generation is async, so the workflow waits and polls until the image is ready.\n5. The final image is published to Instagram and Facebook, and sent back to you on Telegram for review.\n\n## Setup\n1. Select your Telegram credential on the trigger and the 3 Telegram nodes.\n2. On the 2 AtlasCloud HTTP nodes, select the AtlasCloud API credential (Header Auth: Authorization = Bearer YOUR_KEY). Must be selected manually on each node.\n3. On the Blotato nodes, select your Blotato account credential and pick the Instagram account and Facebook Page.\n4. Activate the workflow, then send an album of 2 photos plus a caption to your bot.\n\n## Requirements\n- A Telegram bot token.\n- An [AtlasCloud](https://www.atlascloud.ai/?ref=8QKPJE) account and API key.\n- A [Blotato](https://blotato.com/?ref=firas) account with Instagram and Facebook connected. Blotato is a community node: n8n self-hosted, or n8n Cloud with Verified Community Nodes enabled.\n\n## Customization\n- Change aspect_ratio (1:1, 9:16, 16:9) and output_format (png, jpeg) in Configuration.\n- Swap atlas_model for a higher Nano Banana tier without touching the rest.\n- Add or remove platforms by duplicating a Blotato node.\n- Prefer a fixed selfie? Put your own image URL in Configuration and send only the public figure photo (more reliable, no album buffering)."
