Workflow Templates

What this template does Sends you an email (via Gmail) whenever any workflow that references this one fails. The message includes the workflow name/ID, execution URL, last node executed, and the error message. Why it’s useful Centralizes error notifications so you notice failures immediately and can jump straight to the failed execution. Prerequisites A Gmail account connected through n8n’s Gmail node credentials. This workflow set as the Error Workflow inside the workflows you want to monitor. How it works Error Trigger starts this workflow whenever a linked workflow fails. Gmail (Send → Message) composes and sends an email using details from the Error Trigger. Notes Error workflows don’t need to be activated to work. You can’t test them by running manually—errors must occur in an automatically run workflow (cron, webhook, etc.).

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.

🧑‍💼 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?

🔍 Email Lookup with Google Search from Postgres Database This N8N workflow is designed to enrich seller data stored in a Postgres database by performing automated Google search lookups. It uses Bright Data's Web Unlocker to bypass search result restrictions and the HTML Extract node to parse and extract relevant information from webpages. The main purpose of this workflow is to discover missing contact details, company domains, and secondary emails for businesses or sellers based on existing database entries. 🎯 Problem This Workflow Solves Manually searching for missing seller or business details—like secondary emails, websites, or domain names—can be time-consuming and inefficient, especially for large datasets. This workflow automates the search and data enrichment process, significantly reducing manual effort while improving the quality and completeness of your seller database. ✅ Prerequisites Before using this template, make sure the following requirements are met: ✔️ A Bright Data account with access to the Web Unlocker or Amazon Scraper API ✔️ A valid Bright Data API key ✔️ An active PostgreSQL database with seller data ✔️ N8N self-hosted instance (recommended for using community nodes like n8n-nodes-brightdata) ✔️ Installed n8n-nodes-brightdata package (custom node for Bright Data integration) ⚙️ Setup Instructions Step 1: Prepare Your Postgres Table Create a table in Postgres with the following structure (you can adjust field names if needed): CREATE TABLE sellers ( seller_id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY, seller_name TEXT, primary_email TEXT, company_info TEXT, trade_name TEXT, business_address TEXT, coc_number TEXT, vat_number TEXT, commercial_register TEXT, secondary_email TEXT, domain TEXT, seller_slug TEXT, source TEXT ); Step 2: Setup Web Unlocker on Bright Data Go to your Bright Data dashboard. Navigate to Proxies & Scraping → Web Unlocker. Create a new zone, selecting Web Unlocker API under Scraping Solutions. Whitelist your server IP if required. Step 3: Generate API Key In the Bright Data dashboard, go to the API section. Generate a new API key. In N8N, create HTTP Request Credentials using Bearer Authentication with the API key. Step 4: Install the Bright Data Node in N8N In your N8N self-hosted instance, go to Settings → Community Nodes. Search and install n8n-nodes-brightdata. 🔄 Workflow Functionality 🔁 Trigger: Can be set to run on a schedule (e.g., daily) or manually. 📥 Read: Fetches seller records from the Postgres table. 🌐 Search: Uses Bright Data to perform a Google search based on seller_name, company_info, or trade_name. 🧾 Extract: Parses the HTML content using the HTML Extract node to identify potential websites and email addresses. 📝 Update: Writes enriched data (like domain or secondary_email) back to the Postgres table. 💡 Use Cases Lead enrichment for e-commerce sellers Domain and contact info discovery for B2B databases Email and web domain verification for CRM systems Market research automation 🛠️ Customization Tips You can enhance the parsing logic in the HTML Extract node to look for phone numbers, LinkedIn profiles, or social media links. Modify the search query logic to include additional parameters like location or industry for more refined results. Integrate additional APIs (e.g., Hunter.io, Clearbit) for email validation or social profile enrichment. Add filtering to skip entries that already have domain or secondary_email.

Try adding "rejectUnauthorized": false in HTTP Request options. Cloudflare/bot protection:** Sites with aggressive protection may block the request. Test with a simple site first (like your own). Timeout errors:** Increase timeout setting in HTTP Request node to 30-60 seconds for slow-loading sites. Pages not detected correctly Non-standard URL structure:** The workflow detects pages using common patterns (/about, /contact, etc.). If a site uses unusual URLs like /company-info instead of /about, manual review may be needed. Single-page websites:** Sites built as SPAs (single-page applications) with JavaScript routing may not have distinct page URLs in HTML. The workflow works best with traditional multi-page sites. Check detection details:** The code node outputs detection_details showing exactly what was found. Review this to debug false negatives. Perplexity API errors Rate limits:** Perplexity has usage limits. If you hit them, wait or upgrade your plan. API key invalid:** Verify the key is correct at https://www.perplexity.ai/settings/api Quota exceeded:** Check your Perplexity dashboard for remaining credits. OpenAI web search not working Web search disabled:** Ensure "Web Search" is enabled in the OpenAI Chat Model node under "Built-in Tools" Search context size:** Set to "Medium" for balanced performance Model compatibility:** Web search only works with GPT-4 models, not GPT-3.5 Report not saving to Google Docs Re-authenticate OAuth:** Go to Credentials → Google Docs OAuth2 API → Reconnect Document URL format:** Ensure the URL is a valid Google Docs link (not a folder or Sheets link) Permissions:** Verify the connected Google account has edit access to the document Document locked:** Check if the document is open in another tab with unsaved changes AI recommendations are too generic Perplexity research quality:** The AI relies on Perplexity's research. If competitors have similar structures, recommendations may overlap. Try analyzing a more unique website. Business type misclassification:** Check the detected business_type in the code output. If it's wrong, the recommendations will be off-target. Improve prompt:** Edit the AI Agent system prompt to emphasize more specific or creative recommendations for your niche. Use cases Web design agencies: Audit client websites before proposals. Show exactly which pages are missing compared to competitors, with business justification for each recommendation. Win more projects by demonstrating data-driven insights. SEO consultants: Include page gap analysis in site audits. Identify missing pages that competitors rank for (FAQ, pricing, testimonials).

N8n recently introduced folders and it has been a big improvement on workflow management on top of the tags. This means the current workflows need to be moved manually to the folders. The simplest idea to try is to convert the current tags into folders and move all the current workflows within the respective tags into the folders This assumes the tag name will be used as the folder name. To Note For workflows that use more than 1 tag, the workflow will be assigned the last tag that runs as the folder. How does it work I took the liberty of simplifying the setup of this workflow that will be needed on your part and also be beginner-friendly Copy and paste this workflow into your n8n canvas. You must have existing workflows and tags before you can run this Set your n8n login details on the node set Credentials with the n8n URL, username, and password.
