How it works This template is a complete, hands-on tutorial for building a RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) pipeline. In simple terms, you'll teach an AI to become an expert on a specific topic—in this case, the official n8n documentation—and then build a chatbot to ask it questions. Think of it like this: instead of a general-knowledge AI, you're building an expert librarian. The workflow is split into two main parts: Part 1: Indexing the Knowledge (Building the Library) This is a one-time process you run manually. The workflow automatically scrapes all pages of the n8n documentation, breaks them down into small, digestible chunks, and uses an AI model to create a special numerical representation (an "embedding") for each chunk. These embeddings are then stored in n8n's built-in Simple Vector Store. This is like a librarian reading every book and creating a hyper-detailed index card for every paragraph. Important: This in-memory knowledge base is temporary. It will be erased if you restart your n8n instance, and you will need to run the indexing process again. Part 2: The AI Agent (The Expert Librarian) This is the chat interface. When you ask a question, the AI agent doesn't guess the answer. Instead, it uses your question to find the most relevant "index cards" (chunks) from the knowledge base it just built. It then feeds these specific, relevant chunks to a powerful language model (Gemini) with a strict instruction: "Answer the user's question using ONLY this information." This ensures the answers are accurate, factual, and grounded in your provided documents. Set up steps Setup time: 2 minutes (plus 15-20 minutes for indexing) This template uses n8n's built-in tools, removing the need for an external database. Follow these simple steps to get started. Configure Google AI Credentials: You will need a Google AI API key for the Gemini models. In your n8n workflow, go to any of the three Gemini nodes (e.g., Gemini 2.5 Flash). Click the Credential dropdown and select + Create New Credential. Enter your Gemini API key and save. Apply Credentials to All Nodes: Your new Google AI credential is now saved. Go to the other two Gemini nodes (Gemini Chunk Embedding and Gemini Query Embedding) and select your newly created credential from the dropdown list. Build the Knowledge Base: Find the Start Indexing manual trigger node at the top-left of the workflow. Click its "Execute workflow" button to start the indexing process. ⚠️ Be Patient: This will take 15-20 minutes as it scrapes and processes the entire n8n documentation. You only need to do this once per n8n session. If you restart n8n, you must run this step again. Chat with Your Expert Agent: Once the indexing is complete, Activate the entire workflow using the toggle at the top of the screen. Open the RAG Chatbot chat trigger node (bottom-left) and copy its Public URL. Open the URL in a new tab and start asking questions about n8n! For example: "How does the IF node work?" or "What is a sub-workflow?".

This workflow contains community nodes that are only compatible with the self-hosted version of n8n. Introduction Tired of spending time crafting the perfect AI prompt? This workflow takes your simple ideas like "write a blog post" and automatically transforms them into detailed, structured prompts that actually work. 🎯 What This Does Automatically converts simple user prompts like "write a blog post" into structured, professional AI prompts with metadata, variables, and clear instructions. Perfect for everybody, all industries and organizations who are wanting to eliminate prompt engineering works. 🔄 How It Works Google Sheets Trigger monitors for new prompts AI Enhancement Pipeline uses Gemini + Groq to add structure & context Field Completion auto-generates missing metadata (topic, categories) Quality Assurance validates & stores complete results 🚀 Setup Requirements AI APIs**: Gemini, Telegram, Groq API keys Google Sheets**: 2 sheets (Main, ModifiedPrompt) 5 minutes setup time** - detailed instructions in blue sticky notes Set up steps Setup time: < 5 minutes Create a Google Spreadsheet with two tabs (sheets): OriginalPrompts and ModifiedPrompts. OriginalPrompts columns: Original Prompt ID | Model | Original Prompt | Created Time ModifiedPrompts columns (example): Modified Prompt ID | Original Prompt ID | Topic | Topic Categories | Modified Prompt | Prompt Title | Prompt Type | Model Used | Improvement Notes | Updated Time | Created Time | isProcessed Add and attach credentials in n8n: Google Sheets OAuth2 (required for getting new prompt) Gemini and Groq API credentials (required for AI Agent) Telegram credential (required for notifications) Save & Activate the workflow. Add a test row to OriginalPrompts, for example: Original Prompt ID: 1 — Original Prompt: "Write a short blog post about AI ethics". Wait ~30–60s and check ModifiedPrompts for the enhanced output. That’s it ! Once it configured, drop short ideas into your sheet and get professional prompts back automatically. Your prompts get better, your AI outputs improve, and you save hours of manual prompt crafting.

Automated Binary Data Extraction from Gmail to Google Drive Folder This workflow is designed to automate the process of handling emails with binary attachments. It triggers when a new email arrives in a specified Gmail account (or can be configured with a similar email trigger) and is set to download any binary attachments. The workflow then filters the email to confirm it contains binary data (attachments). If attachments are present, it proceeds to retrieve the full email details, including all binary data. A crucial step is the creation of a new Google Drive folder. This folder is dynamically named using the email's subject and the current timestamp, for example, "[Email Subject] - [Current Timestamp]". Following this, the workflow separates each individual attachment from the email. Finally, these attachments are uploaded into the newly created Google Drive folder, with their original filenames preserved. The overall purpose of this workflow is to automatically organize and store email attachments into a structured Google Drive folder system. This workflow is compatible with any type of binary data found in an email, as the filter is designed to detect any binary data, not just PDFs. How It Works Trigger: The workflow initiates when a new email arrives in a specified Gmail account. Alternatively, it can be configured with a similar email trigger. Download Attachments: The workflow is set to automatically download any binary attachments from the incoming email. Filter Attachments: The workflow then filters the email to confirm it contains binary data (attachments). Retrieve Full Email Details: If attachments are present, the workflow proceeds to retrieve the complete details of the email, including all binary data. Create Google Drive Folder: A new folder is created in Google Drive. This folder is dynamically named using the email's subject and the current timestamp (e.g., "[Email Subject] - [Current Timestamp]"). Split Out Attachments: Each individual binary attachment from the email is separated into its own item within the workflow. Upload to Google Drive: Finally, these separated attachments are uploaded into the newly created Google Drive folder, retaining their original filenames. Need Help? Have Questions?

Preventing Google Sheets Quota Errors during Batch Processing This template provides a robust solution for dealing with Google Sheets API rate limits. It is designed for workflows that update a large number of rows in a Google Sheet and frequently fail with "too many requests" errors. The template uses a Wait node connected to the error output of the Google Sheets node, creating a retry loop that delays execution for a set period before attempting the update again. To use this template, simply replace the placeholder Google Sheets nodes with your own credentials and sheet. You can find an example Google Sheet for this template here. For a full explanation of this approach, check out the blog post here.
