Workflow Templates

What this does: This automation will dynamically create channels on your Discord server for each of your Webflow forms then send formatted form submissions as messages in those channels. This is useful for Webflow will only notify a single email of a form submission. By using this workflow you can enhance your Webflow form management by receiving them in Discord. This is great if you need to notify multiple team members or communities of your form submissions. Usage guide Full written and video guide Simply create credentials for Webflow and Discord and connect them to the nodes. The video guide demonstrates a realworld usecase using a Webflow template and breaks down each node in detail about how it works.

🎯 Workflow Goal Still manually checking form responses in your inbox? What if every submission landed neatly in Airtable — and you got a clean Slack message instantly? That’s exactly what this workflow does. No code, no delay — just a smooth automation to keep your team in the loop: Tally → Airtable → Slack Build an automated flow that: receives Tally form submissions, cleans up the data into usable fields, stores the results in Airtable, and automatically notifies a Slack channel. Step 1 – Connect Tally to n8n What we’re setting up A Webhook node in POST mode. Technical Add a Webhook node. Set it to POST. Copy the generated URL. In Tally → Integrations → Webhooks → paste this URL. Submit a test response on your form to capture a sample structure. Step 2 – Clean the data After connecting Tally, you now receive raw data inside a fields[] array. Let’s convert that into something clean and structured. Goal Extract key info like Full Name, Email, Phone, etc. into simple keys. What we’re doing Add a Set node to remap and clean the fields. Technical Add a Set node right after the Webhook. Add new values (String type) manually: Name: Full Name → Value: {{$json"fields"["value"]}} Name: Email → Value: {{$json"fields"["value"]}} Name: Phone → Value: {{$json"fields"["value"]}} (Adapt the indexes based on your form structure.) Use the data preview in the Webhook node to check the correct order. Output You now get clean data like: { "Full Name": "Jane Doe", "Email": "jane@example.com", "Phone": "+123456789" } Step 3 – Send to Airtable ✅ Once the data is cleaned, let’s store it in Airtable automatically. Goal Create one new Airtable row for each form submission. What we’re setting up An Airtable – Create Record node. Technical Add an Airtable node. Authenticate or connect your API token. Choose the base and table. Map the fields: Name: {{$json["Full Name"]}} Email: {{$json["Email"]}} Phone: {{$json["Phone"]}} Output Each submission creates a clean new row in your Airtable table. Step 4 – Add a delay ⌛ After saving to Airtable, it’s a good idea to insert a short pause — this prevents actions like Slack messages from stacking too fast. Goal Wait a few seconds before sending a Slack notification. What we’re setting up A Wait node for X seconds. ✅ Technical Add a Wait node. Choose Wait for X minutes. Step 5 – Send a message to Slack 💬 Now that the record is stored, let’s send a Slack message to notify your team. Goal Automatically alert your team in Slack when someone fills the form. What we’re setting up A Slack – Send Message node. Technical Add a Slack node. Connect your account. Choose the target channel, like #leads. Use this message format: New lead received! Name: {{$json["Full Name"]}} Email: {{$json["Email"]}} Phone: {{$json["Phone"]}} Output Your Slack team is notified instantly, with all lead info in one clean message. Workflow Complete Your automation now looks like this: Tally → Clean → Airtable → Wait → Slack Every submission turns into clean data, gets saved in Airtable, and alerts your team on Slack — fully automated, no extra work.

This workflow is triggered when a new order is created in Shopify. Then: the order information is stored in Zoho CRM, an invoice is created in Harvest and stored in Trello, if the order value is above 50, an email with a discount coupon is sent to the customer and they are added to a MailChimp campaign for high-value customers; otherwise, only a "thank you" email is sent to the customer. Note that you need to replace the List ID in the Trello node with your own ID (see instructions in our docs). Same goes for the Account ID in the Harvest node (see instructions here).

This workflow is triggered when a typeform is submitted, then it saves the sender's information into HubSpot as a new contact. Typeform Trigger: triggers the workflow when a typeform is submitted. Set: sets the fields for the values from Typeform. HubSpot 1: creates a new contact with information from Typeform. IF: filters contacts who expressed their interest in business services. HubSpot 2: updates the contact's stage to opportunity. Gmail: sends an email to the opportunity contacts with informational material. NoOp: takes no action for contacts who are not interested.

Extract data from a webpage (Ycombinator news page) and create a nice list using itemList node. It seems that current version in n8n (0.141.1) requires to extract each variable one by one. Hopefully in a futute it will be possible to create the table using just one itemList node. Another nice feature of the workflow is an automatically generated file name with the resulting table. Check out the "fileName" option of the Spreadsheet File node: "Ycombinator_news_{{new Date().toISOString().split('T', 1)[0]}}.{{$parameter[\"fileFormat\"]}}" The resulting table is saved as .xls file and delivered via email

This n8n workflow template uses community nodes and is only compatible with the self-hosted version of n8n. Auto Backup n8n Credentials to Google Drive This workflow automates the backup of all your n8n credentials. It can be triggered manually for on-demand backups or will run automatically on a schedule (default to daily execution). It executes a command to export decrypted credentials, formats them into a JSON file, and then uploads this file to a specified Google Drive folder. This process is essential for creating secure backups of your sensitive credential data, facilitating instance recovery or migration. We recommend you use this backup workflow in conjunction with a restore solution like our "Restore Credentials from Google Drive Backups" template. For more powerful n8n templates, visit our website or contact us at AI Automation Pro. We help your business build custom AI workflow automation and apps. Who is this for? This workflow is designed for n8n administrators and users who require a reliable method to back up their n8n credentials. It is particularly beneficial for those managing self-hosted n8n instances, where direct server access allows for command-line operations. What problem is this workflow solving? / use case Managing and backing up n8n credentials manually can be a tedious task, susceptible to errors and often overlooked. This workflow solves the problem by providing an automated, secure, and consistent way to back up all credential data. The primary use case is to ensure that a recovery point for credentials exists, safeguarding against data loss, assisting in instance migrations, or for general disaster recovery preparedness, ideally on a regular, automated basis. What this workflow does The workflow proceeds through the following steps: Triggers: The workflow includes two types of triggers: Manual Trigger: An "On Click Trigger" allows for on-demand execution whenever needed. Scheduled Trigger: A "Schedule Trigger" is included, designed for automated daily backups. Export Credentials: An "Execute Command" node runs the shell command npx n8n export:credentials --all --decrypted. This command exports all credentials from the n8n instance in a decrypted JSON format. Format JSON Data: The output from the command is processed by a "Code" node ("JSON Formatting Data"). This node extracts, parses, and formats the JSON to ensure it is well-structured. Aggregate Credentials: An "Aggregate" node ("Aggregate Cridentials") combines individual credential entries into a single JSON array. Convert to File: The "Convert To File" node transforms the aggregated JSON array into a binary file, preparing it as n8n_backup_credentials.json. Upload to Google Drive: The "Google Drive Upload File" node uploads the generated JSON file to a specified folder in Google Drive. Step-by-step setup To use this workflow, you'll need to configure a few things: n8n Instance Environment: The n8n instance must have access to the npx command and the n8n-cli package. The "Execute Command" node must be able to run shell commands on the server where n8n is hosted. Google Drive Credentials: In the "Google Drive Upload File" node, select or create your Google Drive OAuth2 API credentials. Google Drive Folder ID: Update the folderId parameter in the "Google Drive Upload File" node with the ID of your desired Google Drive folder. File Name (Optional): The backup file will be named n8n_backup_credentials.json. You can customize this in the "Google Drive Upload File" node. Configure Schedule Trigger: The workflow includes a "Schedule Trigger". Review its configuration to ensure it runs daily at your preferred time. How to customize this workflow to your needs Adjust Schedule:** Fine-tune the "Schedule Trigger" for different intervals (e.g., weekly, hourly) or specific days/times as per your requirements. Notifications:** Add notification nodes (e.g., Slack, Email, Discord) after the "Google Drive Upload File" node to receive alerts upon successful backup or in case of failures. Enhanced Error Handling:** Incorporate error handling branches using "Error Trigger" nodes or conditional logic to manage potential failures. Client-Side Encryption (Advanced):* If your security policy requires the backup file itself to be encrypted at rest in Google Drive, you can add a step *before uploading. Insert a "Code" node or use an "Execute Command" node with an encryption utility (like GPG) to encrypt the n8n_backup_credentials.json file. Remember that you would then need a corresponding decryption process. Dynamic File Naming:** Modify the "Google Drive Upload File" node to include a timestamp in the filename (e.g., n8n_backup_credentials_{{$now.toFormat('yyyyMMddHHmmss')}}.json) to keep multiple versions of backups. Important Note on Credential Security To simplify the setup and use of this backup workflow, the exported credentials are stored in the resulting JSON file in a decrypted state. This means the backup file itself is not further encrypted by this workflow. Consequently, it is critically important to: Ensure the Google Drive account used for backups is highly secure (e.g., strong password, two-factor authentication). Restrict access to the Google Drive folder where these backups are stored to only authorized personnel.

This sample workflow allows you to forward alerts from TheHive 5 to SIGNL4 in order to send reliable alerts to your team. There are two nodes for testing the TheHive connection ("TheHive Read Alerts" and "TheHive Create Alert"). The node "TheHive Webhook Request" will receive requests for new alerts from TheHive. You need to configure the webhook and the notifications in TheHive accordingly. The node "SIGNL4 Send Alert" sends the alert to SIGNL4 and the node "SIGNL4 Resolve Alert" will close the alert in SIGNL4 in case it has been closed in TheHive.

Overview This workflow automates the process of notifying users about new emails via Telegram and temporarily hosting the email content on a secret HTML page. It is ideal for users who need immediate notifications and a secure, temporary web view of their email content. Use Cases Immediate notification of new emails in Telegram with the ability to preview the email content in a secure, temporary HTML format. Automation for users who need to keep track of their emails without constantly checking their email client. Useful for teams or individuals who require instant updates on critical emails and prefer a quick preview through a web interface. My Personal Use Case: Secure Subscription Sharing From time to time, I find myself wanting to share my paid subscriptions with friends, but giving out OTP codes manually or sharing my email isn't a good idea due to security concerns. I attempted to use the IMAP node to integrate with Telegram secret channel for this purpose but encountered numerous problems, such as difficulties in scraping content from emails. Additionally, the Telegram API sometimes rejects certain special characters found within email contents. After facing these challenges, I discovered that rendering emails as HTML pages and sharing them directly is the most effective solution. This approach bypasses the issues with character limitations and content scraping, providing a seamless way to share subscription benefits securely. Services/APIs Used | Service/API | Node Type | Description | |----------------------|-------------------------|------------------------------------------------------| | IMAP Email Server | Email Trigger (IMAP) | Triggers the workflow on receiving a new email. | | Telegram API | Telegram | Sends notifications and manages messages in Telegram.| | GitHub Gist API | HTTP Request (Github Gist) | Temporarily hosts email content on GitHub Gist. | | GitHub Gist API (Deletion) | HTTP Request (Github Gist ‌) | Deletes the temporary GitHub Gist after a specified time. | | Wait | Wait | Delays the workflow for a specified period. | Configuration Steps Email Trigger (IMAP): Configure your IMAP email credentials to enable the workflow to check for new emails. Telegram Nodes: Insert your Telegram bot's API credentials and your chat ID in both Telegram nodes to send and delete messages. Github Gist Nodes: Provide your GitHub API credentials to create and delete Gists. Ensure the GitHub token has the necessary permissions to create and delete Gists. Wait Node: Adjust the wait time according to your preference for how long the email content should be accessible via the HTML page. Screenshot Additional Notes Ensure all credentials are securely stored and have the minimum necessary permissions for the workflow to function. Test the workflow with non-sensitive emails to ensure it operates as expected before using it with critical email accounts. Consider the privacy and security implications of temporarily hosting email content on GitHub Gist. For any questions or issues, refer to the respective API documentation for each service used or consult the n8n community for support.

n8n Workflow: Exponential Backoff for Google APIs Overview This n8n workflow implements an Exponential Backoff mechanism to handle retries when interacting with Google APIs. It ensures that failed API requests are retried with increasing delays, up to a specified maximum retry count. This approach helps mitigate transient errors (e.g., rate limits or temporary network issues) while maintaining workflow efficiency. Key Features: Exponential Backoff Logic**: Dynamically increases wait time between retries based on the retry count. Error Handling**: Stops the workflow and raises an error after a specified number of retries. Dynamic Waiting**: Waits for a calculated duration before each retry. Scalable Design**: Modular nodes for easy debugging and customization. Workflow Details Nodes in the Workflow: Trigger (When clicking "Test Workflow"): Manually starts the workflow for testing. Loop Over Items: Iterates over multiple input items to process Google API requests row by row. Google API Node (Example: Update Sheet): Sends a request to a Google API endpoint (e.g., updating a row in Google Sheets). On success: Moves to the next item in the loop. On error: Passes the error to the Exponential Backoff node. Exponential Backoff: Calculates the delay for the next retry based on the retry count. Logic: const retryCount = $json["retryCount"] || 0; const maxRetries = 5; const initialDelay = 1; // in seconds if (retryCount < maxRetries) { const currentDelayInSeconds = initialDelay * Math.pow(2, retryCount); return { json: { retryCount: retryCount + 1, waitTimeInSeconds: currentDelayInSeconds, status: 'retrying', } }; } else { return { json: { error: 'Max retries exceeded', retryCount: retryCount, status: 'failed' } }; } Wait: Dynamically waits for the waitTimeInSeconds value calculated in the Exponential Backoff node. Configuration: Resume: After Time Interval Wait Amount: {{ $json["waitTimeInSeconds"] }} Unit: Seconds Check Max Retries: Evaluates whether the retry count has exceeded the maximum limit. Routes the workflow: True: Passes to the Stop and Error node. False: Loops back to the Google API node for retry. Stop and Error: Stops the workflow and logs the error when the maximum retry count is reached. Parameters Configurable Settings: Max Retries: Defined in the Exponential Backoff node (const maxRetries = 5). Adjust this value based on your requirements. Initial Delay: The starting wait time for retries, defined as 1 second. Google API Configuration: Ensure your Google API node is properly authenticated and configured with the desired endpoint and parameters. How to Use Import the Workflow: Copy the workflow JSON and import it into your n8n instance. Configure Google API Node: Set up the Google API node with your credentials and target API endpoint (e.g., Google Sheets, Gmail, etc.). Test the Workflow: Manually trigger the workflow and observe the retry behavior in case of errors. Monitor Logs: Use the console logs in the Exponential Backoff node to debug retry timings and status. Example Scenarios Scenario 1: Successful Execution The Google API processes all requests without errors. Workflow completes without triggering the retry logic. Scenario 2: Transient API Errors The Google API returns an error (e.g., 429 Too Many Requests). The workflow retries the request with increasing wait times. Scenario 3: Maximum Retries Exceeded The workflow reaches the maximum retry count (e.g., 5 retries). An error is raised, and the workflow stops. Considerations Jitter: This workflow does not implement jitter (randomized delay) since it's not required for low-volume use cases. If needed, jitter can be added to the exponential backoff calculation. Retry Storms: If multiple workflows run simultaneously, ensure your API quotas can handle potential retries. Error Handling Beyond Max Retries: Customize the Stop and Error node to notify stakeholders or log errors in a centralized system. Customization Options Adjust the maximum retry limit and delay calculation to suit your use case. Add additional logic to handle specific error codes differently. Extend the workflow to notify stakeholders when an error occurs (e.g., via Slack or email). Troubleshooting Retry Not Triggering**: Ensure the retryCount variable is passed correctly between nodes. Confirm that the error output from the Google API node flows to the Exponential Backoff node. Incorrect Wait Time**: Verify the Wait node is referencing the correct field for waitTimeInSeconds.
