This is a simple template to show how to extract multiple email attachments and return them as an iterable output. How it works: The Gmail Trigger node detects any new email that has attachments. The Code node will then extract them as binary files and attaches them to the item. They can then be uploaded via the Google Drive node. Setup steps: add your Gmail Credentials add your Google Drive Credentials Follow the official n8n Documentation for help Feedback & Questions If you have any questions or feedback about this workflow - Feel free to get in touch at ria@n8n.io

Workflow: Snapshot Contabo How it Works This workflow automates daily backups (snapshots) of VPS instances hosted on Contabo. Each day at midnight, it checks for existing snapshots and ensures that only the latest backups are retained by removing older ones. It provides a seamless, hands-off backup process to keep your data secure. Setup Steps Setting up this workflow is quick, typically taking about 10-15 minutes. The essential part of the setup is providing the necessary credentials, which you can easily retrieve from your Contabo control panel. Import the Workflow: Download and upload the workflow JSON into n8n. Configure Credentials: Add CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET, API_USER, and API_PASSWORD in the credential node. Activate the Workflow: Enable it to run automatically at midnight every day. Flow Overview Schedule Trigger (00:00 daily):** Automatically initiates the workflow. Formatted Date:** Prepares a timestamp for naming the snapshot. List Snapshots:** Verifies if an existing snapshot is available for each VPS. Conditional Logic:** No Snapshot? Proceeds to create a new one. Snapshot Found? Deletes the old snapshot before creating a new one. Key Points Snapshot Retention:** Old snapshots are deleted to ensure only the latest backups are stored. Unique Identifiers:** UUIDs are used to track and guarantee unique operations.

Automate your email management with this workflow, designed for freelancers and business professionals who receive high volumes of emails. By leveraging AI-powered categorisation and dynamic email processing, this template helps you organise your inbox and streamline communication for better efficiency and productivity. Check out the YouTube video for step-by-step set up instructions! How it works: Fetch & Filter Emails: The workflow retrieves emails from your Microsoft Outlook account, filtering out flagged emails and those already categorised. Content Preparation: Each email is cleaned up and converted to a structured format using Markdown, making it easier for AI processing. AI Categorization: The content is analysed using an AI model, which categorises the emails into predefined categories (e.g., Action, Junk, Business, SaaS) based on the context and content. Email Categorization & Folder Management: The categorised emails are updated in Microsoft Outlook and moved to respective folders such as "Junk Email" or "Receipts" based on the AI's classification. Conditional Processing & Final Checks: Additional checks and conditions ensure that only unread emails are processed, and errors are gracefully managed to maintain workflow stability. Set up steps: Connect Microsoft Outlook: Link your Microsoft Outlook account using the built-in credentials node to enable email fetching, updating, and folder management. Configure AI Model (Ollama API): Set up the AI model by connecting to the Ollama API and choosing your desired language model for categorisation. Modify Email Categories (Optional): Customize the categories and subcategories within the workflow to suit your unique email management needs. Set Up Error Handling: Review the error handling node settings to ensure smooth workflow execution. This template offers a robust solution for managing and organising your inbox, helping you save time and keep your focus on important emails.

This workflow automates the management of DigitalOcean Droplet snapshots by listing all droplets, filtering based on the number of snapshots, and deleting excess snapshots before creating new ones. It ensures your droplet snapshots stay organized and within a manageable limit, preventing unnecessary storage costs due to an excess of snapshots. Who is this for? This workflow is perfect for users managing DigitalOcean Droplets and looking to automate the process of snapshot creation and cleanup to save on storage costs and maintain efficient resource management. It’s useful for DevOps teams, cloud administrators, or any developer leveraging DigitalOcean for their infrastructure. What problem is this workflow solving? When managing multiple DigitalOcean Droplets, snapshots can quickly accumulate, taking up space and increasing storage costs. Manually deleting and creating snapshots can be time-consuming and inefficient. This automation solves this problem by automating the snapshot management process, ensuring that no more than a defined number of snapshots are kept per droplet. What this workflow does Runs every 48 hours: The workflow is triggered by a cron node that runs every 48 hours, ensuring timely snapshot management. List all droplets: The workflow retrieves all droplets in the DigitalOcean account. Retrieve snapshots: For each droplet, the workflow retrieves a list of existing snapshots. Filter snapshots: If the number of snapshots exceeds 4, the workflow filters for snapshots that need to be deleted. Delete snapshots: Excess snapshots are automatically deleted based on the filter criteria. Create new snapshot: After cleaning up, the workflow creates a new snapshot for each droplet, ensuring that backups are always up-to-date. Setup DigitalOcean API Key: You’ll need to configure the HTTP Request nodes with your DigitalOcean API key. This key is required for authenticating requests to list droplets, retrieve snapshots, delete snapshots, and create new ones. Snapshot Threshold: By default, the workflow is set to keep no more than 4 snapshots per droplet. This can be adjusted by modifying the filter node conditions. Set Execution Frequency: The cron node is set to run every 48 hours, but you can adjust the timing to suit your needs. How to customize this workflow Adjust Snapshot Limit**: Change the value in the filter node if you want to keep more or fewer snapshots. Modify Run Frequency**: The workflow runs every 48 hours by default. You can change the frequency in the cron node to run more or less often. Enhance with Notifications**: You can add a notification node (e.g., Slack or email) to alert you when snapshots are deleted or created. Workflow Summary This workflow automates the management of DigitalOcean Droplet snapshots by keeping the number of snapshots under a defined limit, deleting the oldest ones, and ensuring new snapshots are created at regular intervals.

🧑‍💼 Who is this for? This workflow is for any YouTube user who wants to bulk delete all playlists from their own channel — whether to start fresh, clean up old content, or prepare the account for a new purpose. It’s useful for: Creators reorganizing their channel People transferring content to another account Anyone who wants to avoid deleting playlists manually one by one 🧠 What problem is this workflow solving? YouTube does not offer a built-in way to delete multiple playlists at once. If you have dozens or hundreds of playlists, removing them manually is extremely time-consuming. This workflow automates the entire deletion process in seconds, saving you hours of repetitive effort. ⚙️ What this workflow does Connects to your YouTube account Fetches all playlists you’ve created (excluding system playlists) Deletes them one by one** automatically > ⚠️ This action is irreversible. Once a playlist is deleted, it cannot be recovered. Use with caution. 🛠️ Setup 🔐 Create a YouTube OAuth2 credential in n8n for your channel. 🧭 Assign the credential to both YouTube nodes. ✅ Click “Test workflow” to execute. > 🟨 By default, this workflow deletes everything. If you want to be more selective, see the customization tips below. 🧩 How to customize this workflow to your needs ✅ Add a confirmation flag Insert a Set node with a custom field like confirm_delete = true, and follow it with an IF node to prevent accidental execution. ✂️ Delete only some playlists Add a Filter node after fetching playlists — you can match by title, ID, or keyword (e.g. only delete playlists containing “old”). 🛑 Add a pause before deletion Insert a Wait or NoOp node to give you a moment to cancel before it runs. 🔁 Adapt to scheduled cleanups Use a Cron trigger if you want to periodically clear temporary playlists.

Syncs assignments and completion states to and fro between Canvas LMS and a Notion database. Automatically triggers every 2 hours during the schoolday by default (meaning 7 times a day), but also supports manual refreshing via webhooks. Setup You'll need a few things to get started: A Canvas API key. You can generate one by going to your Canvas account settings and clicking on the "New Access Token" button. The URL looks like https://canvas.wisc.edu/profile/settings You'll also need to replace URLs in Canvas nodes with your institution's domain, unless you're a student at UW-Madison. Canvas nodes are all the HTTP Request nodes except the one labelled "OpenAI Categorization", which is an OpenAI node and will require a key in a later step. A Notion integration token. You can find this by going to your Notion integrations page and clicking "Create new integration". You can make it a "Internal Integration". A Notion database to sync to. I made a template for use with the workflow, but you can use any database that has the following fields: Status (status): Status with at least the options "Not Started" and "Completed" - assignments start out "Not Started", and are marked "Completed" when they are submitted on Canvas. Estimate (select): Select with at least the options "XS", "S", "M", "L", "XL" - this is where the estimated time to complete the assignment will be stored. Even if you don't use AI, they'll start out as "M" Priority (select): Select with at least the options "Could Do", "Should Do", "Must Do" - assignments start out "Should Do" ID (text): this is where the ID of the assignment will be stored. We use this to sync without having a database on the server Due Date (date): this is where the due date of the assignment will be stored Class (text): this is where the name of the class will be stored Link (URL): this is where the link to the assignment will be stored The ID of the Notion database you want to sync to. You can find this by clicking "Share" in the top right of your database and copying the link. The ID is the part of the link that comes after https://www.notion.so/ and before ?v=. So for https://www.notion.so/tsuniiverse/1976e99d91128076b034e7379464560f?v=1976e99d911281e7bd4b000c2cbec692&pvs=4, the ID would be 1976e99d91128076b034e7379464560f. An OpenAI key for assignment length estimation or disable the node. Manual Refreshing Embed the production URL from the Webhook Trigger inside a "toggle list" or "toggle heading" inside Notion, then expand the heading to refresh, like so:

How It Works The workflow is an automated appointment reminder system built on n8n. Here is a step-by-step breakdown of its process: Reminder Webhook This node acts as the entry point for the workflow. It's a unique URL that waits for data to be sent to it from an external application, such as a booking or scheduling platform. When a new appointment is created in that system, it sends a JSON payload to this webhook. Extract Appointment Data This is a Code node that processes the incoming data. It's a critical step that: Extracts the customer's name, phone number, appointment time, and service from the webhook's JSON payload. Includes validation to ensure a phone number is present, throwing an error if it's missing. Formats the raw appointment time into a human-readable string for the SMS message. Send SMS Reminder This node uses your Twilio credentials to send an SMS message. It dynamically constructs the message using the data extracted in the previous step. The message is personalized with the customer's name and includes the formatted appointment details. Setup Instructions Import the Workflow Copy the JSON code from the Canvas and import it into your n8n instance. Connect Your Twilio Account Click on the "Send SMS Reminder" node. In the "Credentials" section, you will need to either select your existing Twilio account or add new credentials by providing your Account SID and Auth Token from your Twilio console. Find the Webhook URL Click on the "Reminder Webhook" node. The unique URL for this workflow will be displayed. Copy this URL. Configure Your Booking System Go to your booking or scheduling platform (e.g., Calendly, Acuity). In the settings or integrations section, find where you can add a new webhook. Paste the URL you copied from n8n here. You'll need to map the data fields from your booking system (like customer name, phone, etc.) to match the expected format shown in the comments of the "Extract Appointment Data" node. Once these steps are complete, your workflow will be ready to automatically send SMS reminders whenever a new appointment is created.
