Control Your Own AI Agent with Siri! Easy iPhone Setup with n8n

hey it's Max from NN and in today's video I'm going to show you how to set up this NN workflow template that lets you run an AI agent in an in based on a h Siri voice command so at the end of this video you're going to be able to chat with an AI agent like so hey Siri ask agent what's the text tell me a joke why don't scientists trust atoms because they make up everything nice one sir this template also show shows you how you can start to give context and statefulness to your AI agent so it does better at real world

tasks to set this template up starting from the template page you're going to want to click this use workflow button and from here if you've already used the template library before you're going to get this import button otherwise you're going to have to copy this and paste into your NN account so I'll click the import button it's going to open up my NN account and the setup page you're not going to see this if you copy paste the workflows Json but here it's basically

asking for credentials that I need in the workflow I'll add one of my open API accounts if you don't have one yet you can create a new credential from here and you're just going to have to pop in your open AI API key here if you don't know how to do that give it a quick Google and if you don't have an open AI API key this template will work with different models so just go ahead and click skip for now I'll pick one of my existing ones and hit continue this opens up the workflow in here now again for those folks that would like to switch to a different model zoom in on the workflow here specifically and you're going to want to break the connection between the AI agent and the chat model itself click this plus here this will show you all the possible models you could connect grock is a good one they have a free tier and you can sign up with a free account and access some of the open source models like llama so that's a good option if you don't want to whip out a credit card in this case I'll connect my open AI chat model and the one recommendation I do have is try to use a faster model in this case I'm using 40 mini because this is a voice use case so every second matters once I've done that I'll want to save my workflow once you've saved the

workflow we need to set up the Apple shortcut that's going to run this NAD then workflow so in the setup steps sticky note here there's a link to download the Apple shortcut so I click that it's now downloaded it to my computer I'll show you the steps for setting this up on Mac OS if you want to get the shortcut running on your iOS device like an iPad or an iPhone you'll just have to send that to your iPhone so you can send it via email or airdrop and just add that to your shortcuts app it's installed by default on most iOS devices if not just redownload it from the App Store what I'll do is I'll click the shortcut this is going to open it in the shortcuts app which should be pre-installed uh on any Mac OS device and I'll click add shortcut I can doubleclick on it and there's going to be one thing that we need to change so right now it's set up to be getting the contents of my nend workflow so calling my nend workflow you're going to need to change this URL to the URL of your webhook trigger if I open this up it's probably going to be some long alpha numeric if you want to change it to something short you can change the path here and you're going to want to copy the production URL so make sure it's went from test URL to production URL copy that and then just paste that in here that should be everything that you need to do then you can close that shortcut so now that the shortcut is connected to my nnn workflow you can

save the workflow and activate it now that it's set up you can test it hey Siri ask agent what's the text tell me a joke why don't scientists trust atoms because they make up everything nice one

Siri this template is designed as a starting point so you can customize it in the template I'm showing you how to get data from Siri send it back and run it through an AI agent from here what you do in the middle is really where the magic can happen so some inspiration ideas is you could add some app steps for example pulling some data from notion if you do that then in your AI agent system message or in the text from the user you could use edit and expressions and reference that data from those steps so from here it's really what happens before your AI agent or inside your AI agent that could customize us to many different sorts of use cases I hope you enjoyed this video

If you create a cool version of this workflow consider sharing it with the community you can upload it and become an NN template Creator yourself or DM it to me and we can talk about it on my next Vlog update it's Max to catch on Twitter and Linkedin happy flow grounding
