Workflow Templates

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.

⚙️ How it works Workflow starts from a manual trigger or form submission with project details. It extracts key input data like client name, email, project type, deadline, and brand folder (optional). A Google Drive folder is automatically created inside a designated parent folder. The shareable link of the newly created folder is generated. A personalized email is composed and sent to the client using Gmail, including project details and folder link. 🛠️ Set up steps Google Drive Setup: Connect your Google Drive credentials in n8n. Set the parent folder ID where all project folders should be created. Gmail Setup: Connect a Gmail account with proper access. Customize the subject and message template in the Gmail node. Input Data Preparation: Ensure the following input fields are provided: client_name contact_email project_type deadline brand_drive_folder (optional) Test & Deploy: Use mock data or a test trigger to validate the workflow. Once confirmed, deploy it with the actual trigger (e.g. webhook, form submission).

What this workflow does This workflow in n8n demonstrates how to send a message in Lark using a Lark bot. It begins with a manual trigger and then retrieves the necessary Lark token via a POST request. The token is used to authenticate and send a message to a specific chat using the Lark API. The input node provides the required app_id, app_secret, chat_id, and message content. After obtaining the token, the message is sent with the Lark API's message/v4/send/ endpoint. Who This Is For This n8n workflow is ideal for organizations, teams, and developers who need to automate message sending within Lark, especially those managing notifications, alerts, or team reminders. It can help users reduce manual messaging tasks by leveraging a Lark bot to deliver messages at specific intervals or based on particular conditions, enhancing team communication and responsiveness. Setup Fill the Input node with your values Exchange the bearer token in the Send Message node with your token Author: Hiroshi

Who is this for? NVD (National Vulnerability Database) data is essential for security analysts, vulnerability managers, and DevSecOps professionals who need to perform both CVE lookups and monitor historical change logs. This workflow helps streamline those efforts by providing structured outputs for audit, triage, or compliance tracking purposes. 📝 Note: While this example uses Google Sheets as the destination, you can easily modify the final destination node (e.g., send to Slack, email, database, etc.) based on your specific automation needs.? What problem is this solving? Security teams often manually look up CVE data and track changes across multiple tools. This process is inefficient and error-prone. This workflow automates the CVE lookup and historical change tracking by logging enriched vulnerability data into Google Sheets in real-time. What this workflow does This workflow is designed for CVE API lookup and change history tracking. In many vulnerability automation pipelines, it is essential to determine not only the metadata of a CVE but also how it has evolved over time. Based on the operational need—whether it's enrichment, risk scoring, or remediation validation—this workflow becomes particularly handy in surfacing both current and historical CVE data. This template performs the following actions: Accepts incoming webhook requests containing a CVE ID Queries the NVD CVE Lookup API to fetch vulnerability metadata Queries the NVD CVE History API to retrieve all historical changes Flattens both datasets into a sheet-compatible structure Appends vulnerability metadata to one sheet and change history to another within the same Google Spreadsheet Setup 🔑 Request an NVD API Key To request an NVD API Key, please provide your organization name, a valid email address, and indicate your organization type at NVD API Key Request. You must scroll to the end of the Terms of Use Agreement and check "I agree to the Terms of Use" to obtain an API Key. After submission, you will receive a single-use hyperlink via email to activate and view your API Key. If not activated within seven days, a new request must be submitted. 📊 API Rate Limits Without an API key, you're limited to 5 requests per 30-second window. With an API key, you’re allowed up to 50 requests in the same period. To prevent request throttling, it's recommended to introduce slight delays between consecutive API calls in production setups. Clone or import this workflow into your n8n instance. Set up the following credentials: Google Sheets OAuth2 NVD API Key (via HTTP Header Auth) The workflow logs data to a Google Sheet titled NVD Database, with Sheet 1 named CVE Lookup and Sheet 2 named CVE History. Trigger each workflow using the respective webhook URL, appending ?cveId=CVE-XXXX-XXXX as a query parameter. 🔍 Example Webhook Request (CVE Change History) You can test this workflow with the following example: GET https://your-domain.com/webhook/cve-history?cveId=CVE-2023-34362 How to customize this workflow Use the Edit Fields node (optional) to centralize configuration like sheet name or query input Extend the CVE flattening logic to include more nested metadata if needed Integrate notification systems (e.g., Slack or email) by branching from the processing nodes Modify webhook paths for better endpoint organization 🔐 Production Security Tips Use HTTP Header Auth on the webhook for secure access > ⚠️ This template uses webhooks and NVD API access with authentication headers. This template uses two flows: Webhook 1:** NVD CVE Lookup — Lookup CVE vulnerability metadata from NVD and sync to Google Sheet Webhook 2:** NVD CVE Change History — Track change history for CVEs via NVD and log each update Each flow: Hits NVD’s respective endpoint Uses custom JS Code node to flatten the nested JSON Syncs data to dedicated Google Sheet tabs 🧩 4 nodes: Webhook → API Call → Parse → Sheet Sync Make sure both flows are activated and webhooks exposed for external access. Based on your needs, ensure you have a secure setup—whether hosted internally or in a cloud environment—when running n8n in production.

Unlock a new level of sophistication for your AI agents with this template. While the native n8n Think Tool is great for giving an agent an internal monologue, it's limited to one instance. This workflow provides a clever solution using a sub-workflow to create multiple, custom thinking tools, each with its own specific purpose. This template provides the foundation for building agents that can plan, act, and then reflect on their actions before proceeding. Instead of just reacting, your agent can now follow a structured, multi-step reasoning process that you design, leading to more reliable and powerful automations. Who is this for? AI and automation developers:** Anyone looking to build complex, multi-tool agents that require robust logic and planning capabilities. LangChain enthusiasts:** Users familiar with advanced agent concepts like ReAct (Reason-Act) will find this a practical way to implement similar frameworks in n8n. Problem solvers:** If your current agent struggles with complex tasks, giving it distinct steps for planning and reflection can dramatically improve its performance. What problem does this solve? Bypasses the single "Think Tool" limit:** The core of this template is a technique that allows you to add as many distinct thinking steps to your agent as you need. Enables complex reasoning:** You can design a structured thought process for your agent, such as "Plan the entire process," "Execute Step 1," and "Reflect on the result," making it behave more intelligently. Improves agent reliability and debugging:** By forcing the agent to write down its thoughts at different stages, you can easily see its line of reasoning, making it less prone to errors and much easier to debug when things go wrong. Provides a blueprint for sophisticated AI:** This is not just a simple tool; it's a foundational framework for building state-of-the-art AI agents that can handle more nuanced and multi-step tasks. How it works The re-usable "Thinking Space": The magic of this template is a simple sub-workflow that does nothing but receive text. This workflow acts as a reusable "scratchpad." Creating custom thinking tools: In the main workflow, we use the Tool (Workflow) node to call this "scratchpad" sub-workflow multiple times. We give each of these tools a unique name (e.g., Initial thoughts, Additional thoughts). The power of descriptions: The key is the description you give each of these tool nodes. This description tells the agent when and how it should use that specific thinking step. For example, the Initial thoughts tool is described as the place to create a plan at the start of a task. Orchestration via system prompt: The main AI Agent's system prompt acts as the conductor, instructing the agent on the overall process and telling it about its new thinking abilities (e.g., "Always start by using the Initial thoughts tool to make a plan..."). A practical example: This template includes two thinking tools to demonstrate a "Plan and Reflect" cycle, but you can add many more to fit your needs. Setup Add your own "action" tools: This template provides the thinking framework. To make it useful, you need to give the agent something to do. Add your own tools to the AI Agent, such as a web search tool, a database lookup, or an API call. Customize the thinking tools: Edit the description of the existing Initial thoughts and Additional thoughts tools. Make them relevant to the new action tools you've added. For example, "Plan which of the web search or database tools to use." Update the agent's brain: Modify the system prompt in the main AI Agent node. Tell it about the new action tools you've added and how it should use your customized thinking tools to complete its tasks. Connect your AI model: Select the OpenAI Chat Model node and add your credentials. Taking it further Create more granular thinking steps:** Add more thinking tools for different stages of a process, like a "Hypothesize a solution" tool, a "Verify assumptions" tool, or a "Final answer check" tool. Customize the thought process:* You can change *how the agent thinks by editing the prompt inside the fromAI('Thoughts', ...) field within each tool. You could ask for thoughts in a specific format, like bullet points or a JSON object. Change the workflow trigger:** Switch the chat trigger for a Telegram trigger, email, Slack, whatever you need for your use case! Integrate with memory:** For even more power, combine this framework with a long-term memory solution, allowing the agent to reflect on its thoughts from past conversations.

Who is this template for? This template is ideal for n8n instance administrators, developers, and DevOps teams who need a proactive and organized way to monitor the health of their automations. If you want to be notified about failures as soon as they happen, without having to manually check execution logs, this workflow is for you. What does this template do? This workflow automates error monitoring on your n8n instance. Every hour, it performs the following steps: Queries the n8n API to fetch all executions that have failed in the last hour. Groups the errors by workflow to consolidate the information. Builds a rich message for each failed workflow, including the error count. Sends an alert to a Slack channel with a button to open the workflow directly, allowing for immediate investigation. Requirements Before you start, you will need to have the following configured in your n8n instance: n8n API Credentials:** You need to generate an API key in your n8n instance settings so the workflow can query execution data. Slack Credentials:* A configured *Slack (OAuth2 API)** credential to allow n8n to send messages to your workspace. How to set it up Setup is simple and only takes a few minutes: Config Node: In the node named "Config", you must set the value for the baseUrl to your n8n instance's URL (e.g., https://n8n.yourdomain.com). This is crucial for generating the correct workflow links in the Slack message. Schedule Trigger: The workflow is pre-configured to run every hour. You can adjust the frequency in this node to fit your needs. "Get Failed Executions" Node (HTTP Request): Under Authentication, select 'Header Auth'. In the Credentials field, select your n8n API credential. "Post to Slack" Node (Slack): Select your Slack credential. In the Channel field, enter the name of the channel where error notifications should be sent (e.g., #n8n-alerts). Activate the Workflow! After these steps, just activate the workflow to start the automatic error monitoring. How to customize the workflow You can easily customize this template: Change the Schedule:** Modify the Schedule Trigger node to run at different intervals (every 15 minutes, once a day, etc.). Change the Notification Channel:** Instead of Slack, you can replace the last node to send notifications to Discord, Microsoft Teams, Telegram, or even by email. Add More Information:** You can modify the MakeMessage node that generates the message to include more details about the errors, such as the error message or the exact time of failure.
