# n8n-workflows Repository
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Overview
|
||||||
|
This repository contains a collection of n8n workflow automation files. n8n is a workflow automation tool that allows creating complex automations through a visual node-based interface. Each workflow is stored as a JSON file containing node definitions, connections, and configurations.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Repository Structure
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
n8n-workflows/
|
||||||
|
├── workflows/ # Main directory containing all n8n workflow JSON files
|
||||||
|
│ ├── *.json # Individual workflow files
|
||||||
|
├── README.md # Repository documentation
|
||||||
|
├── claude.md # This file - AI assistant context
|
||||||

└── [other files] # Additional configuration or documentation files
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Workflow File Format
|
||||||
|
Each workflow JSON file contains:
|
||||||
|
- **name**: Workflow identifier
|
||||||
|
- **nodes**: Array of node objects defining operations
|
||||||
|
- **connections**: Object defining how nodes are connected
|
||||||
|
- **settings**: Workflow-level configuration
|
||||||
|
- **staticData**: Persistent data across executions
|
||||||
|
- **tags**: Categorization tags
|
||||||
|
- **createdAt/updatedAt**: Timestamps
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Common Node Types
|
||||||
|
- **Trigger Nodes**: webhook, cron, manual
|
||||||
|
- **Integration Nodes**: HTTP Request, database connectors, API integrations
|
||||||
|
- **Logic Nodes**: IF, Switch, Merge, Loop
|
||||||
|
- **Data Nodes**: Function, Set, Transform Data
|
||||||
|
- **Communication**: Email, Slack, Discord, etc.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Working with This Repository
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### For Analysis Tasks
|
||||||
|
When analyzing workflows in this repository:
|
||||||
|
1. Parse JSON files to understand workflow structure
|
||||||
|
2. Examine node chains to determine functionality
|
||||||
|
3. Identify external integrations and dependencies
|
||||||
|
4. Consider the business logic implemented by node connections
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### For Documentation Tasks
|
||||||
|
When documenting workflows:
|
||||||
|
1. Verify existing descriptions against actual implementation
|
||||||
|
2. Identify trigger mechanisms and schedules
|
||||||
|
3. List all external services and APIs used
|
||||||
|
4. Note data transformations and business logic
|
||||||
|
5. Highlight any error handling or retry mechanisms
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### For Modification Tasks
|
||||||
|
When modifying workflows:
|
||||||
|
1. Preserve the JSON structure and required fields
|
||||||
|
2. Maintain node ID uniqueness
|
||||||
|
3. Update connections when adding/removing nodes
|
||||||
|
4. Test compatibility with n8n version requirements
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Key Considerations
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Security
|
||||||
|
- Workflow files may contain sensitive information in webhook URLs or API configurations
|
||||||
|
- Credentials are typically stored separately in n8n, not in the workflow files
|
||||||
|
- Be cautious with any hardcoded values or endpoints
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Best Practices
|
||||||
|
- Workflows should have clear, descriptive names
|
||||||
|
- Complex workflows benefit from documentation nodes or comments
|
||||||
|
- Error handling nodes improve reliability
|
||||||
|
- Modular workflows (calling sub-workflows) improve maintainability
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Common Patterns
|
||||||
|
- **Data Pipeline**: Trigger → Fetch Data → Transform → Store/Send
|
||||||
|
- **Integration Sync**: Cron → API Call → Compare → Update Systems
|
||||||
|
- **Automation**: Webhook → Process → Conditional Logic → Actions
|
||||||
|
- **Monitoring**: Schedule → Check Status → Alert if Issues
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Helpful Context for AI Assistants
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When assisting with this repository:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **Workflow Analysis**: Focus on understanding the business purpose by examining the node flow, not just individual nodes.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. **Documentation Generation**: Create descriptions that explain what the workflow accomplishes, not just what nodes it contains.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. **Troubleshooting**: Common issues include:
|
||||||
|
- Incorrect node connections
|
||||||
|
- Missing error handling
|
||||||
|
- Inefficient data processing in loops
|
||||||
|
- Hardcoded values that should be parameters
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. **Optimization Suggestions**:
|
||||||
|
- Identify redundant operations
|
||||||
|
- Suggest batch processing where applicable
|
||||||
|
- Recommend error handling additions
|
||||||
|
- Propose splitting complex workflows
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. **Code Generation**: When creating tools to analyze these workflows:
|
||||||
|
- Handle various n8n format versions
|
||||||
|
- Account for custom nodes
|
||||||
|
- Parse expressions in node parameters
|
||||||
|
- Consider node execution order
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

## 📂 Folder Structure
|
## 📂 Workflow Sources
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Each `.json` file represents a single exported workflow.
|
This collection includes workflows from:
|
||||||
* Files are named either based on their original title or source.
|
|
||||||
* You may also find `.txt` files that were converted into `.json` (see below).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
---
|
* Official [n8n.io](https://n8n.io) website and community forum
|
||||||
|
* Public GitHub repositories and community contributions
|
||||||
|
* Blog posts, tutorials, and documentation examples
|
||||||
|
* User-submitted automation examples
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 🔄 TXT to JSON Conversion
|
Files are organized with descriptive names indicating their functionality.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Some workflows were originally saved as `.txt` files or copied from online sources. A script was used to:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Detect `.txt` files
|
|
||||||
* Attempt to parse them as JSON or structured key-value pairs
|
|
||||||
* Convert them to valid `.json` format
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you’re looking to run the conversion yourself, check out `convert_txt_to_json.py` included in this repo.
