Workflow Templates

Description This workflow automates the extraction of structured data from invoices or similar documents using Docsumo's API. Users can upload a PDF via an n8n form trigger, which is then sent to Docsumo for processing and structured parsing. The workflow fetches key document metadata and all line items, reconstructs each invoice row with combined header and item details, and finally exports all results as an Excel file. Ideal for automating invoice data entry, reporting, or integrating with accounting systems. How It Works A user uploads a PDF document using the integrated n8n form trigger. The workflow securely sends the document to Docsumo via REST API. After uploading, it checks and retrieves the parsed document results. Header information and table line items are extracted and mapped into structured records. The complete result is exported as an Excel (.xls) file. Setup Steps Docsumo Account: Register and obtain your API key from Docsumo. n8n Credentials Manager: Add your Docsumo API key as an HTTP header credential (never hardcode the key in the workflow). Workflow Configuration: In the HTTP Request nodes, set the authentication to your saved Docsumo credentials. Update the file type or document type in the request (e.g., "type": "invoice") as needed for your use case. Testing: Enable the workflow and use the built-in form to upload a sample invoice for extraction. Features Supports PDF uploads via n8n’s built-in form or via API/webhook extension. Sends files directly to Docsumo for document data extraction using secure credentials. Extracts invoice-level metadata (number, date, vendor, totals) and full line item tables. Consolidates all data in easy-to-use Excel format for download or integration. Modular node structure, easily extensible for further automation. Prerequisites Docsumo account with API access enabled. n8n instance with form, HTTP Request, Code, and Excel/Convert to File nodes. Working Docsumo API Key stored securely in n8n’s credential manager. Example Use Cases | Scenario | Benefit | |---------------------|-----------------------------------------| | Invoice Automation | Extract line items and metadata rapidly | | Receipts Processing | Parse and digitize business receipts | | Bulk Bill Imports | Batch process bills for analytics | Notes Credentials Security:** Do not store your API key directly in HTTP Request nodes; always use n8n credentials manager. Sticky Notes:** The workflow includes sticky notes for setup, input, API call, extraction, and output steps to assist template users. Custom Columns:** You can customize header or line item extraction by editing the Code node as needed.

This workflow is a experiment to build HTML pages from a user input using the new Structured Output from OpenAI. How it works: Users add what they want to build as a query parameter The OpenAI node generate an interface following a structured output defined in the body The JSON output is then converted to HTML along with a title The HTML is encapsulated in an HTML node (where the Tailwind css script is added) The HTML is rendered to the user via the Webhook response. Set up steps Create an OpenAI API Key Create the OpenAI credentials Use the credentials for both nodes HTTP Request (as Predefined Credential type) and OpenAI Activate your workflow Once active, go to the production URL and add what you'd like to build as the parameter "query" Example: https://production_url.com?query=a%20signup%20form Example of generated page

Using the knowledge graphs instead of RAG vector stores This workflow creates an AI chatbot agent that has access to several knowledge bases at the same time (used as "experts"). These knowledge bases are provided using the InfraNodus GraphRAG using the knowledge graphs and providing high-quality responses without the need to set up complex RAG vector store workflows. The advantages of using GraphRAG instead of the standard vector stores for knowledge are: Easy and quick to set up (no complex data import workflows needed) A knowledge graph has a holistic view of your knowledge base Better retrieval of relations between the document chunks = higher quality responses How it works This template uses the n8n AI agent node as an orchestrating agent that decides which tool (knowledge graph) to use based on the user's prompt. Here's a description step by step: The user submits a question using the AI chatbot (n8n interface, in this case, which can be accessed via a URL or embedded to any website) The AI agent node checks a list of tools it has access to. Each tool has a description of the knowledge it has auto-generated by InfraNodus. The AI agent decides which tool should be used to generate a response. It may reformulate user's query to be more suitable for the expert. The query is then sent to the InfraNodus HTTP node endpoint, which will query the graph that corresponds to that expert. Each InfraNodus GraphRAG expert provides a rich response that takes the whole context into account and provides a response from each expert (graph) along with a list of relevant statements retrieved using a combination or RAG and GraphRAG. The n8n AI Agent node integrates the responses received from the experts to produce the final answer. The final answer is sent back to the user's chat (or a webhook endpoint) How to use You need an InfraNodus GraphRAG API account and key to use this workflow. Create an InfraNodus account Get the API key at https://infranodus.com/api-access and create a Bearer authorization key for the InfraNodus HTTP nodes. Create a separate knowledge graph for each expert (using PDF / content import options) in InfraNodus For each graph, go to the workflow, paste the name of the graph into the body name field. Keep other settings intact or learn more about them at the InfraNodus access points page. Once you add one or more graphs as experts to your flow, add the LLM key to the OpenAI node and launch the workflow Requirements An InfraNodus account and API key An OpenAI (or any other LLM) API key Customizing this workflow You can use this same workflow with a Telegram bot, so you can interact with it using Telegram. There are many more customizations available.

How it works This workflow is a hands-on tutorial for the Code node in n8n, covering both basic and advanced concepts through a simple data processing task. Provides Sample Data: The workflow begins with a sample list of users. Processes Each Item (Run Once for Each Item): The first Code node iterates through each user to calculate their fullName and age. This demonstrates basic item-by-item data manipulation using $input.item.json. Fetches External Data (Advanced): The second Code node showcases a more advanced feature. For each user, it uses the built-in this.helpers.httpRequest function to call an external API (genderize.io) to enrich the data with a predicted gender. Processes All Items at Once (Run Once for All Items): The third Code node receives the fully enriched list of users and runs only once. It uses $items() to access the entire list and calculate the averageAge, returning a single summary item. Create a Binary File: The final Code node gets the fully enriched list of users once again and creates a binary CSV file to show how to use binary data Buffer in JavaScript. Set up steps Setup time: < 1 minute This workflow is a self-contained tutorial and requires no setup. Explore the Nodes: Click on each of the Code nodes to read the code and the comments explaining each step, from basic to advanced. Run the Workflow: Click "Execute Workflow" to see it in action. Check the Output: Click on each node after the execution to see how the data is transformed at each stage. Notice how the data is progressively enriched. Experiment! Try changing the data in the 1. Sample Data node, or modify the code in the Code nodes to see what happens.

This workflow contains community nodes that are only compatible with the self-hosted version of n8n. Description This workflow automates document processing and structured table extraction using the Nanonets API. You can submit a PDF file via an n8n form trigger or webhook—the workflow then forwards the document to Nanonets, waits for asynchronous parsing to finish, retrieves the results (including header fields and line items/tables), and returns the output as an Excel file. Ideal for automating invoice, receipt, or order data extraction with downstream business use. How It Works A document is uploaded (via n8n form or webhook). The PDF is sent to the Nanonets Workflow API for parsing. The workflow waits until processing is complete. Parsed results are fetched. Both top-level fields and any table rows/line items are extracted and restructured. Data is exported to Excel format and delivered to the requester. Setup Steps Nanonets Account: Register for a Nanonets account and set up a workflow for your specific document type (e.g., invoice, receipt). Credentials in n8n: Add HTTP Basic Auth credentials in n8n for the Nanonets API (never store credentials directly in node parameters).

This n8n template offers a simple yet capable chatbot assistant who can answer course enquiries over SMS. Given the right access to data, AI Agents are capable of planning and performing relatively complex research tasks to get their answers. In this example, the agent must first understand the database schema, retrieve lists of values before generating it's own query to search over the database. Checkout the example database here - https://airtable.com/appO5xvP1aUBYKyJ7/shr8jSFDaghubDOrw How it works A Twilio trigger gives us the ability to receive SMS input into our workflow via webhook. The message is then directed to our AI agent who is instructed to assist the user and use the course database as reference. The database is an Airtable base. The agent autonomously figures out which tool it needs to use and generates it's own "filter_by_formula" query to search over the available courses. On successful search results, the Agent can then use this information to answer the user's query. The Agent's output is logged in a second sheet of the Airtable base. We can use this later for analysis and lead gen. Finally, the response is sent back to the user through SMS using Twilio. How to use Ensure your Twilio number is set to forward messages to this workflow's webhook URL. Configure and update the course database as required. If you're not interested in courses, you can swap this out for inventory, deliveries or any other data relevant to your business. Ask questions like: "Can you help me find suitable courses to fill my Wednesday mornings?" "Which courses are being instructed by profession Lee?" "I'm interested in creative arts. What courses are available which could be relevant to me?" Requirements Twilio for SMS receiving and sending OpenAI for LLM and Agent Airtable for Course Database Customising this workflow Add additional tools and expand the range of queries the agent is able to answer or assist with. Not using Airtable? This technique also works with SQL databases like PostgreSQL.

This workflow randomly select recipes from a Mealie instance (can use a specific category) and then creates a meal plan in Mealie with those recipes. How it works: Workflow has a scheduled trigger (set to run weekly on a Friday) Config node sets a few properties to configure the workflow A call to the Mealie API to get the list of recipes The code node holds most of the logic, this will loop through the number of recipes defined in the config node and randomly select a recipe from the list (making sure not to double up any recipes) Once all the recipes are selected it will call the Mealie API to set up the meal plan on the days Setup Add your Mealie API token as a credential and set it on the Http Request nodes Set the relevant schedule trigger to run when you like Update the Config node with the config you want numberOfRecipes - Number of recipes to populate for the meal plan offsetPlanDays - Number of days in the future to start the plan (0 will start it today, 1 tomorrow, etc.) mealieCategoryId - A category id of the category you want to pull in recipes from (default to select from all recipes) mealieBaseUrl - The base url of your Mealie instance

What this workflow does This workflow extracts product details—like name, price, discount, and rating— from website screenshots using Dumpling AI. It starts when a new product page URL is added to a Google Sheet, captures a screenshot of that page, extracts visible product info from the image, and writes the results back into the sheet. What problem is this workflow solving? Many product pages block traditional scraping tools or use unstructured layouts. This workflow bypasses HTML limitations by using visual AI extraction, making it reliable even when content is embedded in images or hard to parse with code. Who is this for? This is ideal for eCommerce researchers, pricing analysts, marketers, or anyone building a product database from websites without needing to code or maintain complex scrapers. Setup Create a Google Sheet with a column named "Site" (or update the trigger). Add your product page URLs in this column—one per row. Connect your Google Sheets and Dumpling AI credentials in n8n. Ensure your Dumpling AI account has API access for screenshots and extraction. How to customize the workflow Prompt adjustment**: In the “Extract Text from Screenshot” node, you can modify the prompt to extract other information like brand name, delivery time, or availability. Add more fields**: After the extraction, edit the “Format Extracted Data” node to map additional fields from the response to your Google Sheet columns. Change output destination**: You can easily replace the Google Sheets module with Airtable, Notion, or another app if preferred. > ⚠️ This works best when the product data is clearly visible in the screenshot. > It won’t extract info that’s hidden behind popups or loaded via user interaction.
