(Optional) \ud83d\uddd1\ufe0f Remove the entire container (`Delete container`).\n\n## \ud83d\udd27 How to set up\n\n1. **\ud83e\udde0 Set up OpenAI**\n - Create an OpenAI account and get your API key.\n - In n8n, go to **Credentials \u2192 OpenAI** and paste your key.\n\n2. **\ud83e\udea3 Set up Azure Blob Storage**\n - Log in to your Azure Portal.\n - Create a **Storage Account** (e.g., `mystorageaccount`).\n - Go to **Access Keys** tab and copy:\n - **Storage Account Name**\n - **Key1**\n - In n8n, create a new **Azure Blob Storage Credential** using:\n - **Account Name** = your storage account name\n - **Access Key** = key1 value\n\n > \ud83d\udcdd This demo uses **Access Key** authentication. You can also configure Shared Access Signatures (SAS) or OAuth in production setups.\n\n3. **Run the Workflow**\n - Enter your image idea and container name.\n - Click \u201cExecute Workflow\u201d to test it.\n\n## \ud83d\udccb Requirements\n\n| Requirement | Description |\n|------------------------|--------------------------------------------------|\n| Azure Storage Account | With container-level read/write access |\n| OpenAI API Key | For image and prompt generation |\n| n8n Version | v1.0+ recommended |\n| Image Credits | OpenAI charges tokens for DALL\u00b7E image creation |\n\n\n## \ud83d\udee0\ufe0f How to customize the workflow\n\n### \ud83e\udde0 Adjust Prompt Generation\nUpdate the **Prompt Agent** to include:\n- Specific style (3D, anime, cyberpunk)\n- Brand elements\n- Multiple language options\n\n### \ud83d\udcc1 Organize by Date/User\nModify the `containerName` to auto-include:\n- Date (e.g., `images-2025-08-20`)\n- Username or session ID\n\n### \ud83d\udce4 Send Image Output\n- Add Slack, Telegram, or Email nodes to deliver the image\n- Create public links using Azure\u2019s blob permissions\n\n### \ud83d\udd01 Cleanup Logic\n- Auto-delete blobs after X days\n- Add versioning or backup logic"
