Workflow Templates

Description Turn your Telegram bot into a powerful OCR (Optical Character Recognition) tool. This workflow allows you to send any image (like a screenshot, a photo of a document, or a picture of a sign) to your bot, and it will instantly extract and send back the text from that image. Powered by Google's advanced Gemini AI, this automation is perfect for quickly digitizing notes, saving important snippets, or avoiding manual typing. How it works This workflow performs a few high-level steps: It triggers when a new image is sent to your Telegram bot. It sends the image to the Google Gemini Vision API to be analyzed. It extracts the text found in the image. It sends the extracted text back to you as a message in Telegram. Set up steps Estimated set up time: Less than 5 minutes. The setup is straightforward. You only need to configure two credentials: Telegram Bot Credentials: To connect your bot. Google Gemini API Credentials: To use the OCR feature. You can get a free API key from Google AI Studio.

Ok google download "movie name" I develop this automation to improve my quality of life in handling torrents in my media-center. Goal Automate the search operations of a movie based on its name and trigger a download using your transmission-daemon. Setup Prerequisite Transmission daemon up and running and its authentication method N8N configured self-hosted or with the possibility to add npm package better with docker-compose.yaml Telegram bot credential [optional] Configuration Create a folder where your docker-compose.yaml belongs n8n_dir and proceed in installing the node package. cd ~/n8n_dir npm i torrent-search-api Configuring your docker-compose.yaml file this way. You must include all the dependencies of torrent-search-api. This will let you run the new torrent search node presented in this workflow. version: '3.3' services: n8n: container_name: n8n ports: '5678:5678' restart: always volumes:

NODE_FUNCTION_ALLOW_EXTERNAL=torrent-search-api Once configured this way run n8n and create a new workflow coping the one proposed. Configure workflow Transmission In order to send command to transmission you must validate the Basic Auth. To do so: open the Start download node and edit the Credentials. Perform the same operation choosing the new credentials also in node Start download new token. In this automation we call transmission twice due to a security protocol in transmission system that prevents single click commands to be triggered, performing the request twice bypasses this security mechanism. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_request_forgery We use the X-Transmission-Session-Id provided by the first request to authenticate the second request. Telegram In order to make the workflow work as expected you must create a telegram bot and configure the nodes (Torrent not found and Telegram1) to send your message once the workflow is complete. Here's an easy guide to follow https://docs.n8n.io/nodes/n8n-nodes-base.telegram/ In those nodes you also should configure the Chat ID, you may use your telegram username or use a bot to retrieve your id. You may chat with useridinfobot that sends you your id. Ok google automation Since right now we do not have a n8n client for mobile that can trigger automation using google assistant I decided to use an IFTTT automation to trigger the webhook. I connect my IFTTT account with google assistant and pick the trigger. Say a phrase with a text ingredient as in the picture below. And configure the trigger this way. scarica $ -> download $ or metti in download $ -> put in download $ or some other trigger you may want. Then configure your server to trigger the webhook of n8n. Conclusion In conclusion we provide a fully working automation that integrates in n8n a node library and provides an easy trigger to perform a complex operation. Security concern Giving the ability to trigger a download may be problematic for potential unwanted torrent malware download, so you may decide to authenticate the webhook request passing in the body another field with a shared token between the two endpoints. Moreover the torrent-search-api library and its dependencies have some vulnerability that you may want to avoid on your own media-center, this will hopefully be patched soon in a further release of the library. This is just an interesting proof of concept. Quality of the download You may want to introduce another block between torrent search and webhook trigger to search for a movie based on the words detected by google assistant, sometimes it misinterprets something and you may end up downloading potential copyrighted material. Please use this automation only for free and open source movies and music.

Open the "MCP Client" and add the following credentials: How to use it Run the Chat node and start asking questions More detailed instructions Missed a step? Find more detailed instructions here: Personal Newsfeed With Bright Data and n8n What is Retrievel Augmented Generation (RAG)? Large Language Models (LLM's) are trained on data until a specific cutoff date. Imagine a model is trained in December 2023 based data until September 2023. This means the model doesn't have any knowledge about events which happened in 2024. So if you ask the LLM who was the Formula 1 World Champion of 2024, it doesn't know the answer. The solution? Retrieval Augmented Generation. When using Retrieval Augmented Generation, a user's question is being sent to a semantic database. The LLM will use the information retrieved from the semantic database to answer the user's question. What is Model Context Protocol (MCP)? MCP is a communication protocol which is used by AI agents to call tools hosted on external servers. When an MCP client communicates with an MCP server, the server will provide an overview of all its tools, prompts and resources. The MCP server can then choose which tools to execute (based on the user's request) and execute the tools. An MCP client can communicate with multiple MCP servers, which can all host multiple tools.

Who is this for? This workflow is perfect for customer support teams, sales departments, or solopreneurs who receive frequent email enquiries and want to automate the initial response process using AI. If you spend too much time answering similar questions, this system helps respond faster and more intelligently—without writing a single line of code. What problem is this workflow solving? Manually responding to repeated customer enquiries slows productivity and increases delay. This workflow classifies if an incoming email is a real enquiry, analyzes the content with a LangChain-powered agent, fetches helpful context using Dumpling AI, and sends a personalized reply using Gmail—all within minutes. What this workflow does Listens for new incoming Gmail messages using the Gmail Trigger node. Classifies whether the email is an enquiry using a GPT-4o classification prompt. Uses a Filter node to continue only if the email was classified as an enquiry. Passes the email content to a LangChain Agent, enhanced with memory, AI tools, and Dumpling AI to search for relevant information. The agent constructs a smart, relevant response, then sends it to the original sender via Gmail. Setup Connect Gmail Use the Gmail Trigger node to connect to the Gmail account that receives enquiries. Make sure Gmail OAuth2 credentials are authenticated. Configure Dumpling AI Agent Sign up at Dumpling AI. Create an agent trained to search your help docs, site content, or FAQs. Copy your Dumpling agent ID and API key. Paste it in the Dumpling AI Agent – Search for Relevant Info HTTP Request node. Set Up LangChain Agent No extra setup needed beyond connecting OpenAI credentials. GPT-4o is used for classification and reply generation. Enable Gmail Reply Node The final Send Email Response via Gmail node will send the AI-generated reply back to the same thread. How to customize this workflow to your needs Change the classification prompt to include other email types like “support”, “complaint”, or “sales”. Add additional logic if you want to CC someone or forward certain types of enquiries. Add a Notion or Google Sheets node to log the conversation for analytics. Replace Gmail with Outlook or another email provider by switching the nodes. Improve context by adding more AI tools like database queries or preloaded FAQs.
