Description

Quick overview
This workflow turns a product photo into a short product video with Dreem AI. Tag a product dreem-video in Shopify and the finished clip arrives in Slack for approval, then lands in the product's media.

How it works
The workflow fires when a product update carries the tag dreem-video. The tag is swapped immediately so the workflow cannot re-trigger itself.
The Dreem node animates the product's newest image into a 5-10 second video. Use an on-model photo for best results.
Dreem renders in the background (up to 20 minutes) and calls the workflow back.
The video link posts to Slack with Upload / Skip buttons. No click within 12 hours counts as Skip - nothing reaches the store without a yes.
Posts the finished video link to Slack and sends an approval message with buttons to either upload the video to Shopify or skip.
If approved, downloads the video file, creates a staged Shopify upload via the Shopify Admin GraphQL API, uploads the video to the staged target, and attaches it to the product’s media.
If rendering times out or does not complete, posts a timeout message to Slack and stops without uploading anything to Shopify.

Setup
Add a Shopify Admin access token credential with read_products and write_products permissions and select it for the Shopify trigger and product update steps.
Add a Dreem.ai API key credential and choose the prompt and duration settings you want for video generation.
Add a Slack OAuth2 credential, set the target channel for both Slack messages, and ensure approvers can interact with message buttons.
Replace https://YOUR-STORE.myshopify.com with your actual Shopify domain in both Shopify GraphQL HTTP requests.
Tag a product with dreem-video and ensure the newest product image is the one you want to use as the video’s first frame.

Requirements
Dreem account + API key, Shopify store with Admin API access, Slack (required, for the approval step)

Customization
Change the motion prompt, duration, and dimensions (9:16 for Reels/TikTok) on the Dreem node, or rename the trigger tag.
