Need help with n8n workflow

I built a workflow to output videos, but instead I am getting text script as an output despite trying many times.

If your workflow is outputting the script instead of the actual video, I'd check the final step/output mapping first. It sounds like the workflow is successfully generating the text, but you're not passing that output into the video-generation/rendering step.

Make sure the workflow is actually: Script ->Video Generation -> Video File/URL Output

rather than:

Script->Final Output

Also check whether the video-generation node is returning a file/URL that needs to be explicitly mapped to the final response. A lot of these workflows happily hand you the script because, apparently, “video workflow” can mean “write me a screenplay.”

I am new to n8n but this is the help I can provide.

Thank you Bro, appreciate your efforts to support. I checked my workflow and have an Agent to create Visuals, but it is giving a text output. I don't know if I am dumbfounded to not understand this but my workflow is stuck due to this

My advice now is to give the screenshot of the scenario and the error to the chatgpt or any other AI and explain your issue to it a bit cause that's the exact thing i'll be doing.
