The core request is to create a JSON representation of an n8n workflow, specifically one with a single Webhook node. The JSON provided already gives us the exact structure and configuration for that node, plus some dummy pin data.\n\nMy first thought is always, what's the entry point? How does this workflow get triggered? The prompt explicitly mentions a \"single Webhook node,\" and the JSON confirms this. So, the very first, and in this case, only node I need to consider is a Webhook.\n\n1. **Adding the Webhook Node**:\n * I'll start by adding a **Webhook** node. This is a trigger node, meaning it waits for an external event to happen before the workflow proceeds. It's the perfect choice here because the goal is to listen for incoming HTTP requests.\n * Its type, as per the JSON, is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`.\n * The `typeVersion` is `2`. This indicates a specific version of the node's implementation, and while minor version changes might bring new features or slight parameter adjustments, for a basic webhook, version 2 is robust and widely used. I don't foresee any issues with this specific version for what we're doing.\n\n2. **Configuring the Webhook Node's Parameters**:\n * Looking at the JSON, the `parameters` block for the Webhook node tells me how it should be set up.\n * The most critical parameter for a webhook is its `path`. The JSON specifies `\"FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ\"`. This is the unique endpoint where the webhook will listen for requests. It's a good practice to have a somewhat complex or random-looking path like this to prevent accidental triggers or unauthorized access. So, I'd configure the path to be exactly that string.\n * Next, there's an `options` object, which is currently empty (`{}`). This means no specific HTTP method (like GET or POST), authentication, or response mode has been explicitly configured. By default, n8n webhooks usually listen for all common HTTP methods, which is fine for a simple setup. If the prompt had specified a particular method, I'd add it here, but for now, the defaults are implied and suitable.\n * The node also has an `id` (`8fcc7e5f-2cef-4938-9564-eea504c20aa0`), `name` (\"Webhook\"), `position` (`[360, 220]`), and `webhookId` (`9c778f2a-e882-46ed-a0e4-c8e2f76ccd65`). The `id` and `webhookId` are internal identifiers generated by n8n, and the `name` and `position` are for visual layout and identification within the n8n editor. I'd simply set the name to \"Webhook\".\n\n3. **Understanding the `pinData`**:\n * The `pinData` section isn't part of the active workflow execution logic itself, but it's incredibly useful for design and testing. It represents a *sample* incoming request that the Webhook node received or could receive. This allows you to simulate data flow without actually sending a live request.\n * The `pinData` is an array associated with the \"Webhook\" node, and it contains one sample item.\n * Inside this sample item, we have:\n * `headers`: This object mimics the HTTP headers that would come with an actual request. We see common headers like `connection`, `user-agent`, `accept`, `host`, and `accept-encoding`. Crucially, it also includes a `cookie` header. When designing, it's good to represent realistic scenarios, so including a `cookie` shows how that data would be captured. I would note that the actual `n8n-auth` cookie value shown here is a dynamic, user-specific token and would vary in a real scenario; I would never hardcode or infer such a value.\n * `params`: This is an empty object `{}`, meaning no dynamic path parameters (like `\/users\/{id}`) were part of this sample request.\n * `query`: Also an empty object `{}`, indicating no URL query parameters (like `?name=value`) were present in the sample.\n * `body`: An empty object `{}`, which means the sample request had no JSON or form data in its body. This implies it might have been a GET request or a request with no payload. If the webhook was expected to receive data (e.g., from a form submission or an API call), I would populate this with relevant dummy data.\n * `webhookUrl`: This is the full URL (`http:\/\/localhost:5678\/webhook-test\/FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`) that would be hit to trigger this webhook in a test environment. It's helpful for understanding the full endpoint.\n * `executionMode`: Set to `\"test\"`, which confirms this `pinData` is for simulating a test run.\n\n4. **Connections**:\n * The `connections` object in the provided JSON is empty (`{}`). This tells me that the Webhook node isn't connected to any other nodes. In a real workflow, after a webhook receives data, you'd typically connect it to another node to process that data (e.g., a Function node, an HTTP Request node to forward the data, or a Google Sheets node to store it). However, for this specific request, the workflow simply starts with the Webhook and doesn't proceed further. It stands alone as a trigger.\n\nSo, the plan is simple: create a single `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, configure its path, and recognize that the `pinData` describes a sample incoming request's structure including headers and a cookie. There are no other nodes or connections needed according to the provided JSON." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object representing an n8n workflow that retrieves the content of a Google Doc specified by its URL using a webhook trigger and then sends the document content back as a response.

So, my very first node, the one that kicks everything off, definitely needs to be a Webhook node.\n\n1. **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n * **TypeVersion**: 2\n * **Reasoning**: As mentioned, the prompt explicitly requires a webhook trigger. This node acts as an endpoint that external systems can call to initiate the workflow. It's the standard way to expose an n8n workflow to the outside world.\n * **Configuration thoughts**:\n * I'll need to define a `path` for this webhook. This path will be part of the URL that external systems use to call the workflow. I'll just set a unique path here, but the actual string itself doesn't matter for the design, only that it exists.\n * The prompt also says the workflow should \"send the document content back as a response\". To achieve this, I'll set the `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells the webhook to wait for a specific \"Respond to Webhook\" node later in the workflow to send the final reply. This gives me granular control over what gets sent back, which is exactly what I need. If I chose `lastNode`, the response would just be the output of the final processing node, which might not always be what I want for the final client.\n\nNext, after the workflow is triggered, the core task is to \"retrieve the content of a Google Doc specified by its URL\". This immediately makes me think of the Google Docs node.\n\n2. **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`\n * **TypeVersion**: 2\n * **Reasoning**: This node is specifically designed for interacting with Google Docs. It has operations to get, create, update, or delete documents. Since the goal is to \"retrieve the content,\" this is the most direct and appropriate node to use.\n * **Connection**: This node clearly needs to run *after* the webhook has triggered. So, I'll connect the main output of my `Webhook` node to the main input of this `Google Docs` node. The webhook just signals the start, and then the Google Docs node performs the actual data fetching.\n * **Configuration thoughts**:\n * For the `operation`, I'll set it to `get`. This is the action required to pull content from an existing Google Doc.\n * The prompt states \"specified by its URL\". So, a `documentURL` parameter will be configured here. This is where the specific Google Doc's web address would be provided. This tells the node exactly which document to fetch.\n * Naturally, connecting to Google Docs will require authentication. There will be a `credentials` field where the necessary Google Docs API credentials, likely OAuth2, would be linked. This ensures the workflow has the proper permissions to access the document.\n\nFinally, the workflow needs to \"send the document content back as a response\". We've already set the Webhook node to expect a `responseNode`, so now I need to add that specific node.\n\n3. **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`\n * **TypeVersion**: 1.1\n * **Reasoning**: As planned, this node is specifically for sending a response back to the original webhook caller when the `responseMode` on the Webhook node is set to `responseNode`. It's the final step to complete the request-response cycle.\n * **Connection**: This node must execute *after* the Google Docs node has successfully retrieved the document content. So, I'll connect the main output of the `Google Docs` node to the main input of this `Respond to Webhook` node. The data flow here is crucial: the Google Docs node gets the content, and then that content flows into this node to be sent back.\n * **Configuration thoughts**:\n * The prompt mentions \"return the document's text content\". So, for `respondWith`, I'll choose `text`. This ensures the response is plain text, which is usually sufficient for just the content. If I chose JSON, it might include more metadata than necessary.\n * For the `responseBody`, this is where I'll put the actual document content. When the `Google Docs` node performs a `get` operation, it typically returns the document's content in a field called `content` within its JSON output. So, I'll use an n8n expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression dynamically retrieves the value of the `content` field from the incoming data (which is the output of the Google Docs node) and uses it as the body of the HTTP response. This directly fulfills the requirement to send the document content back.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow starts with a trigger, fetches the data, and then responds with that data, all as requested." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object representing an n8n workflow that listens for a webhook at the \"chatwoot\" path and responds with all received items with a 200 OK status.

The goal is pretty clear: listen for an incoming webhook at a specific path, and then simply echo back whatever we received, confirming with a 200 OK status.\n\nThe very first thing any workflow that reacts to an external event needs is a trigger. Since this workflow needs to listen for a webhook, the most suitable node for that is obviously a Webhook trigger. So, I'd start by adding a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`. Looking at the provided JSON, it's configured with `typeVersion 2`, which is a robust and commonly used version for this node.\n\nNow, for its configuration. The prompt specifically says the webhook should be at the \"chatwoot\" path. So, within the parameters for this \"Webhook\" node, I'll set the `path` property to \"chatwoot\". This means the full URL for this webhook will end with `\/chatwoot`, making it discoverable by the external system sending the data.\n\nAnother crucial setting for this Webhook node is its `responseMode`. The prompt implies that a *separate* node will handle the response. So, I'd set `responseMode` to \"responseNode\". This tells the Webhook node not to send an automatic response itself, but to wait for a subsequent \"Respond to Webhook\" node in the workflow to handle the HTTP response back to the caller. This gives us more control over what and how we respond. The `options` parameter is empty, which means no special handling like authentication is needed directly on the webhook trigger itself, which aligns with the simplicity of the request. The `webhookId` is something n8n generates internally, I don't need to worry about setting that manually, it's just part of the node's identity within the system.\n\nAfter the \"Webhook\" node successfully receives data, the next step is to respond to the caller with that data. Since our Webhook node's `responseMode` is set to \"responseNode\", we need a dedicated node to actually send that response. The `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` node is exactly what we need here. It's designed to take the data it receives and formulate an HTTP response back to the original webhook caller. The JSON shows it's `typeVersion 1.1`.\n\nFor configuring this \"Respond to Webhook\" node, the prompt asks us to \"respond with all received items\". So, I'll configure the `respondWith` parameter to \"allIncomingItems\". This ensures that whatever data the \"Webhook\" node captured and passed down to this \"Respond to Webhook\" node will be included in the body of the HTTP response. It's a convenient way to echo back the payload for verification or debugging.\n\nLastly, the prompt specifies a \"200 OK status\". So, under the `options` for this response node, I'll set the `responseCode` parameter to `200`. This will send the standard HTTP success code, indicating that the webhook call was received and processed successfully by our n8n workflow.\n\nFinally, for the connections: it's a straightforward flow. The \"Webhook\" node's main output should connect directly to the \"Respond to Webhook\" node's main input. This ensures that any data received by the webhook is immediately passed along to the response node, which then sends it back to the original sender. There's no complex logic or transformation needed in between, so a direct connection is perfect." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that uses the \"On clicking 'execute'\" trigger to activate an \"OpenThesaurus\" node, querying the synonyms for the German word \"Hallo\".

I need to create a workflow that gets synonyms for a German word, specifically \"Hallo\", and it needs to be triggered manually.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the prompt and the provided JSON, it's clear the user wants a workflow that activates \"On clicking 'execute'\". This immediately tells me I need a manual trigger.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding a **Manual Trigger** node.\n* Its node type would be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`.\n* The typeVersion specified is `1`, which is the current standard for this basic trigger, so that's what I'll use.\n* I'll place it somewhere central, let's say at position `[550, 260]` on the canvas. This node is quite simple; it just waits for a click to initiate the workflow. It doesn't need any specific parameters configured for its basic operation, so its `parameters` property will remain an empty object `{}`. It just outputs a single item when clicked, which is perfect for kicking off the next step.\n\nNow that I have my trigger, what's next? The prompt says to activate an \"OpenThesaurus\" node to query synonyms for \"Hallo\". This is my core action node.\n\nSo, I'll add an **OpenThesaurus** node.\n* This node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.openThesaurus`.\n* The typeVersion is `1`, matching what's in the JSON.\n* I'll want to place it logically after the trigger, so a position like `[750, 260]` makes sense, keeping it visually aligned with the trigger node.\n\nNow, how do I configure this OpenThesaurus node to get synonyms for \"Hallo\"? Looking at the `parameters` in the JSON, it shows `{\"text\": \"Hallo\", \"options\": {}}`.\n* The `text` field is clearly where I input the word I want to query. In this case, it's the German word \"Hallo\", as requested. So, I'd input \"Hallo\" directly into that field.\n* The `options` object is empty, meaning I don't need any additional settings like language filtering or specific result counts for this particular query, which simplifies things. The default behavior of fetching synonyms for the given text should suffice.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The trigger needs to flow into the OpenThesaurus node so that when the manual trigger is clicked, it activates the synonym lookup.\n* I'll draw a connection from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's `main` output to the `main` input of the \"OpenThesaurus\" node. This ensures that the execution flow passes from the trigger to the OpenThesaurus node. The JSON describes this perfectly with `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"OpenThesaurus\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`, indicating a direct main-to-main connection from the trigger to the OpenThesaurus node's first input.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The workflow is designed to be `active: false` by default, meaning it won't run automatically on a schedule or webhook trigger; it will only run when I explicitly click the \"execute\" button on the manual trigger node. This setup is straightforward and directly addresses all parts of the user's request." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers on new Google Drive file uploads in a specific folder and then creates a new page in a Notion database, adding the file name as the page title and the file's web view link as a file property.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"event\": \"fileCreated\", \"options\": {}, \"pollTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"mode\": \"everyMinute\"}]}, \"triggerOn\": \"specificFolder\", \"folderToWatch\": \"1_vYi00lSdzU2p6wGrnW_IqsOblOL-3zG\"}, \"name\": \"On file upload\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDriveTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [240, 480]}, {\"parameters\": {\"title\": \"={{$node[\\\"On file upload\\\"].json[\\\"name\\\"]}}\", \"resource\": \"databasePage\", \"databaseId\": \"d637c796-d33b-4768-b955-55c66a0966b7\", \"propertiesUi\": {\"propertyValues\": [{\"key\": \"File|files\", \"fileUrls\": {\"fileUrl\": [{\"url\": \"={{ $json[\\\"webViewLink\\\"] }}\", \"name\": \"={{ $node[\\\"On file upload\\\"].json[\\\"name\\\"] }}\"}]}}]}}, \"name\": \"Create database page\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.notion\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [440, 480]}], \"connections\": {\"On file upload\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Create database page\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's think through building this workflow from the ground up, just like I'd do in n8n.\n\nThe user's goal is quite clear: \"Generate an n8n workflow that triggers on new Google Drive file uploads in a specific folder and then creates a new page in a Notion database, adding the file name as the page title and the file's web view link as a file property.\"\n\n**First things first, I need a trigger.** The request explicitly states \"triggers on new Google Drive file uploads.\" So, my immediate thought is to find a Google Drive trigger node.\n\n* Looking at the provided JSON, the first node is indeed `n8n-nodes-base.googleDriveTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect. This node is designed specifically for reacting to events within Google Drive.\n* Now, how would I configure it?\n * The `event` parameter needs to be set to `fileCreated`. This ensures the workflow only triggers when a *new* file is uploaded, rather than, say, when a file is updated or deleted.\n * The prompt specifies \"in a specific folder.\" So, I'd set the `triggerOn` parameter to `specificFolder`.\n * Then, I'd need to provide the `folderToWatch` parameter. This would be the unique ID of the Google Drive folder that I want to monitor. This is where the user would input their specific folder ID.\n * For `pollTimes`, the JSON shows `everyMinute`. This is a common and reasonable interval for a trigger like this; it means n8n will check Google Drive for new files in that folder once every minute.\n * Finally, this node would require credentials to connect to Google Drive. I'd set up a Google Drive OAuth2 API credential, which would allow n8n to securely access the user's Google Drive account.\n\n**Now that I have my trigger, what's the next step?** The prompt says \"then creates a new page in a Notion database.\" This tells me I need a Notion node that can create database pages.\n\n* Examining the JSON, the second node is `n8n-nodes-base.notion` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is exactly what I'd choose. The Notion node is designed for all sorts of interactions with Notion, including creating pages, querying databases, and more.\n* How would I connect these two nodes? It's a straightforward sequence: the output from the `On file upload` Google Drive trigger should feed directly into the `Create database page` Notion node. This would be a standard `main` connection, passing all the data about the newly uploaded Google Drive file to the Notion node.\n\n**Now, let's configure the Notion node.** This is where I'll use the data from the previous Google Drive trigger node.\n\n* First, I need to specify what kind of Notion resource I'm working with. The prompt clearly states \"creates a new page in a Notion database,\" so I'd set the `resource` parameter to `databasePage`.\n* Next, I need to tell it *which* database to use. There would be a `databaseId` parameter where I'd input the specific ID of the Notion database where the new pages should be created.\n* Now for the page content and properties:\n * The prompt says \"adding the file name as the page title.\" This is easy to do using an expression. The Google Drive trigger node outputs a lot of information about the uploaded file, including its `name`. So, for the `title` property of the Notion page, I would use an expression like `={{$node[\"On file upload\"].json[\"name\"]}}`. This dynamic expression ensures that the Notion page title is always the exact name of the uploaded Google Drive file.\n * Then, it specifies \"and the file's web view link as a file property.\" This requires configuring a specific property within the Notion database page.\n * Within the `propertiesUi` section, I'd look for an option to add a file property. The JSON shows a `propertyValues` array with a `key` of `\"File|files\"`. This suggests the user's Notion database has a property named \"File\" that is of the \"Files & media\" type.\n * Inside this property, I need to provide the file's URL. The Google Drive trigger also provides a `webViewLink` property, which is exactly what I need \u2013 it's the direct link to view the file in Google Drive's web interface. So, for the `url`, I'd use the expression `={{ $json[\"webViewLink\"] }}`. This takes the `webViewLink` from the current item being processed (which originated from the Google Drive trigger).\n * It's also good practice to give the linked file a name within Notion, so I'd use the file name again for that, with the expression `={{ $node[\"On file upload\"].json[\"name\"] }}`.\n* Finally, just like the Google Drive node, the Notion node would need credentials to connect to Notion. I would configure a Notion API credential, providing the necessary API key or token to authorize n8n to interact with the Notion workspace.\n\nAnd that's it!

The request is pretty clear: a Manual Trigger, followed by a Wait node for 2 seconds, and then a Set node, all connected sequentially.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger that kicks things off. The prompt specifically asks for a \"Manual Trigger.\" This immediately tells me I'll need a trigger node that can be initiated by a user or an external call, rather than on a schedule or by a webhook.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding a **Manual Trigger** node.\n- The node's type would be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. This is ideal because it allows for direct, on-demand execution, which is what \"Manual Trigger\" implies.\n- Looking at the provided JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is a stable and common version for this basic trigger node.\n- As for its configuration, the JSON shows empty `parameters` for this node. This makes sense; a manual trigger typically doesn't need much in the way of specific settings, it just waits for a signal to start the workflow. It's essentially a button you click to run the workflow.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step, according to the prompt, is a \"Wait node (2 seconds).\" This means I need to introduce a delay before the workflow proceeds.\n\nTherefore, I'll add a **Wait** node right after the Manual Trigger.\n- The node's type would be `n8n-nodes-base.wait`. This node is specifically designed to pause the workflow for a specified duration, which is exactly what's needed here.\n- Its `typeVersion` is also `1` in the provided JSON.\n- Now, for its configuration: the prompt specifies \"2 seconds.\" This translates directly to the `parameters` for this Wait node. I would configure `amount` to `2` and `unit` to `\"seconds\"`. This ensures the workflow pauses for precisely the requested duration before moving on.\n- In terms of connections, I would connect the `main` output of the `Manual` node to the `main` input of this `Wait` node. This sets up the sequential flow, so that once the manual trigger fires, control immediately passes to the Wait node, which then begins its countdown.\n\nFinally, the prompt states \"and a Set node, connecting them sequentially.\" So, after the 2-second wait, the workflow should proceed to a Set node.\n\nI'll add a **Set** node as the final step.\n- The node's type would be `n8n-nodes-base.set`. The Set node is very versatile; it's used for manipulating the data that flows through the workflow, such as adding new fields, modifying existing ones, or removing them. While the prompt doesn't specify *what* it should set, its presence implies some kind of data processing or finalization step.\n- Its `typeVersion` is `1` according to the JSON, consistent with the other basic nodes.\n- Regarding its configuration, the JSON for this Set node shows `parameters: {\"options\": {}}`. This means, as it's currently defined, this particular Set node isn't actually configured to add, remove, or modify any specific data fields. It's essentially a no-operation at this point, but it's there as the designated end-point of this simple sequence. If there were a requirement to add a specific piece of information, like a timestamp or a status, this is where that configuration would happen (e.g., setting a field named \"status\" to \"completed\").\n- For the connection, I would link the `main` output of the `Wait` node to the `main` input of this `Set` node. This completes the linear flow: trigger -> wait -> set. Data, if any, would flow from the Wait node to the Set node after the delay.\n\nThis sequential setup of Manual Trigger -> Wait -> Set fulfills all the requirements of the prompt, creating a straightforward workflow that starts manually, pauses for a moment, and then performs a final (though currently empty) data operation." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a Mailchimp Trigger node that listens for \"subscribe\" events from the API, admin, and user sources for the list with ID \"0a5a4ca5de\", using the \"mailchimp_creds\" credentials. Include no connections.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"list\": \"0a5a4ca5de\", \"events\": [\"subscribe\"], \"sources\": [\"api\", \"admin\", \"user\"]}, \"name\": \"Mailchimp Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.mailchimpTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [870, 370]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user's request is quite specific, which helps a lot. They want a workflow that starts by listening for events from Mailchimp.\n\nSo, the very first thing that comes to mind is that we'll definitely need a Trigger node. Since we're dealing with Mailchimp events, the most appropriate choice would be a Mailchimp Trigger node. This type of node is specifically designed to listen for webhooks or API events coming directly from the Mailchimp service, which is exactly what's requested: \"listens for 'subscribe' events from the API, admin, and user sources\".\n\nLooking at the JSON provided, it confirms my thought process. The node is named \"Mailchimp Trigger\", and its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.mailchimpTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is good; it's the standard way to initiate a workflow based on Mailchimp activity. I don't anticipate any significant behavioral changes with `typeVersion 1` for this basic trigger functionality, but it's always good to be aware of the version.\n\nNow, let's configure this Mailchimp Trigger node based on the user's requirements and the provided JSON.\n\nFirst, the prompt mentions listening for events from a specific list. It provides the list ID \"0a5a4ca5de\". So, within the node's `parameters`, I'll need to set the `list` property to this ID. The JSON shows `list: \"0a5a4ca5de\"`, which aligns perfectly.\n\nNext, the user specified \"subscribe\" events. This means we're not interested in unsubscribes, updates, or other types of changes, just new subscriptions. So, under `events` in the parameters, I'd expect to see `[\"subscribe\"]`. And yes, the JSON has `events: [\"subscribe\"]`. This ensures the workflow only activates when a new subscription occurs.\n\nThe prompt also specified the *sources* of these subscribe events: \"from the API, admin, and user sources\". This is important for filtering. A subscription could come from someone filling out a form on a website (user source), an administrator manually adding a contact (admin source), or an external application using the Mailchimp API (API source). To capture all these scenarios, we need to include all three. So, the `sources` parameter should be configured as `[\"api\", \"admin\", \"user\"]`. The JSON again confirms this, which is great.\n\nFinally, for any node that interacts with an external service like Mailchimp, credentials are required for authentication. The prompt clearly states \"using the 'mailchimp_creds' credentials\". In the `credentials` section of the node, I'd set the `mailchimpApi` property to this credential name. The JSON reflects this as `credentials: {\"mailchimpApi\": \"mailchimp_creds\"}`. This is where the actual API key or token for Mailchimp would be stored securely in the n8n environment, allowing the node to authenticate and communicate with Mailchimp. I'd never put the actual sensitive values directly in the workflow itself, only a reference to the stored credential.\n\nThe `position` parameter, `[870, 370]`, just dictates where the node appears visually on the n8n canvas. It doesn't affect the node's functionality.\n\nA critical point from the user prompt was \"Include no connections.\" The provided JSON also shows `\"connections\": {}`. This means this workflow is intentionally designed to be a standalone trigger. It simply listens for events. Once an event is received, it will process it, but it won't pass data on to any subsequent nodes because there aren't any. This indicates that perhaps the output of this trigger is intended for logging, internal n8n execution history, or simply to show that an event occurred, rather than initiating a further processing chain. It's a complete, self-contained starting point as requested.\n\nSo, to summarize, the design process for this workflow involves identifying the correct trigger node, configuring its parameters to precisely match the desired events, sources, and target list, and then linking it to the appropriate credentials for secure authentication. The absence of connections signifies a complete, self-contained initial trigger." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers manually and then uses the Crypto node to process the string \"n8n rocks!\".

I'm thinking from the perspective of building this out.\n\nFirst, I need to look at the overall goal: a workflow that triggers manually, then uses a Crypto node to process a specific string.\n\nSo, the very first thing that comes to mind is, \"How do I even start this workflow?\" The prompt explicitly says it needs to \"trigger manually.\" This immediately tells me I need a trigger node that I can initiate with a click. Looking at n8n's available nodes, the `manualTrigger` node is the perfect fit for this.\n\n* I'll start by adding a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. Its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is ideal because it creates a simple, executable entry point for the workflow. I'd place it somewhere logical on the canvas, perhaps near the left, as it's the starting point. The JSON names it \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is a perfectly descriptive name for a manual trigger. It doesn't require any specific parameters for its basic operation, so the `parameters` field is empty, which is exactly what I'd expect here.\n\nNext, the prompt states that the workflow needs to \"use the Crypto node to process the string 'n8n rocks!'\". This tells me what the very next step in the workflow should be. After the manual trigger fires, I need to pass control to a node that can perform cryptographic operations.\n\n* So, my next thought is, \"Okay, after the trigger, I need to process that specific string. The `Crypto` node is mentioned directly, so that's what I'll use.\" I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.crypto` with `typeVersion` `1`. I'd place this node to the right of my `manualTrigger` node, indicating the flow of execution. The JSON names it \"Crypto,\" which is clear and concise.\n\nNow that I have both key nodes on the canvas, they need to be connected. The prompt specifically says, \"The workflow should connect the trigger to the Crypto node.\"\n\n* This is straightforward. I need to draw a connection from the output of the `manualTrigger` node to the input of the `Crypto` node. The `manualTrigger` outputs a single item when executed, which is sufficient to tell the `Crypto` node to run. I'll connect the `main` output of \"On clicking 'execute'\" to the `main` input of \"Crypto.\" This ensures that when I click \"execute\" on the trigger, the `Crypto` node is activated immediately after.\n\nFinally, the `Crypto` node needs to know *what* string to process. The prompt explicitly states it should process \"n8n rocks!\".\n\n* So, I'll go into the parameters of the `Crypto` node. I'd look for an input field where I can specify the string to be processed. Based on the JSON, the `value` parameter is where this string goes. I'll configure the `Crypto` node's `value` parameter to be \"n8n rocks!\". I'm not told what specific cryptographic operation (like hashing, encoding, etc.) to perform, so I'll assume the default operation of the Crypto node will be used, as the JSON doesn't specify an `operation` or `algorithm` parameter. The key part is ensuring the correct string is provided to the node.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The manual trigger starts, passes control to the Crypto node, and the Crypto node processes the specified string. Simple and direct." } { "prompt": "Generate a workflow in n8n that fetches company settings from ProfitWell, then retrieves monthly and daily metrics, chaining the monthly metrics retrieval to the daily metrics retrieval.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to fetch company settings, then get monthly metrics, and finally, daily metrics, with a specific chaining requirement and a dynamic date for the daily data.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point. So, my initial thought is to add a **Start node**. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.start` with `typeVersion 1`. It doesn't really need any configuration; it's simply the entry point that triggers the workflow when it's activated or manually executed. It's the most basic and fundamental node to kick off any process.\n\nNext, looking at the user prompt, one of the first requirements is to \"fetch company settings from ProfitWell.\" This immediately tells me I'll need a **ProfitWell node**. So, I'll drag and drop that onto the canvas. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.profitWell` and it uses `typeVersion 1`.\n\nNow, how should I configure this ProfitWell node for company settings? The JSON shows `resource: \"company\"`. That's exactly what I'd choose. I'd set the 'Resource' parameter to 'Company'. This tells the node to interact with the company-related endpoints of the ProfitWell API. For credentials, it would naturally need an API key or other authentication details. The JSON indicates `profitWellApi` credentials would be selected, but the specific ID or name of those credentials would depend on what the user has set up in their n8n instance. I'll connect this 'ProfitWell' node from the 'Start' node's main output.\n\nThe prompt then says, \"then retrieves monthly and daily metrics, chaining the monthly metrics retrieval to the daily metrics retrieval.\" This implies two more ProfitWell nodes. Let's think about the monthly metrics first.\n\nI'll add another **ProfitWell node** for the monthly metrics. Again, this will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.profitWell`, `typeVersion 1`. For this one, the JSON shows `type: \"monthly\"`. So, I'd configure its 'Resource' parameter to 'Metric' and then the 'Type' option within the Metric resource to 'Monthly'. Just like the previous ProfitWell node, it will use the same ProfitWell API credentials.\n\nNow, here's an interesting part about the connection. The prompt says \"chaining the monthly metrics retrieval to the daily metrics retrieval.\" It *doesn't* explicitly state that the company settings retrieval should be chained to the monthly metrics. Looking at the provided JSON, it seems the 'Start' node actually branches out to both the 'ProfitWell' (company settings) node AND this 'ProfitWell1' (monthly metrics) node. So, both operations can start in parallel right after the workflow begins. That seems like a reasonable approach if the company settings aren't a prerequisite for fetching metrics. So, I'll connect the 'Start' node's main output to this 'ProfitWell1' node as well.\n\nFinally, for the \"daily metrics retrieval,\" I'll add yet another **ProfitWell node**. This will also be of type `n8n-nodes-base.profitWell`, `typeVersion 1`. According to the JSON and the prompt, this node's 'Resource' should be 'Metric', and its 'Type' parameter should be set to 'Daily'.\n\nThe crucial part for this daily metrics node is the requirement \"Ensure the daily metrics retrieval is set to fetch data for the current month.\" The JSON addresses this beautifully with an expression: `={{(new Date()).toISOString().slice(0,7)}}`. This is what I'd put into the 'Month' parameter field. This expression dynamically calculates the current month in 'YYYY-MM' format, which is typically what APIs expect for month-specific filtering. For example, if it's October 2023, it would resolve to '2023-10'. This makes the workflow robust and ensures it always fetches data for the current month without manual updates. The 'simple' option is set to `false`, which is fine, as we're using a more advanced expression for the month. Again, it would use the same ProfitWell API credentials.\n\nNow, for the connections: the prompt specifically states \"chaining the monthly metrics retrieval to the daily metrics retrieval.\" This means the 'ProfitWell1' (monthly metrics) node's main output should connect directly to this 'ProfitWell2' (daily metrics) node. This ensures that the daily metrics are only fetched *after* the monthly metrics operation has completed, perhaps allowing for some implicit data flow or just ensuring an ordered execution as per the requirement. The output of the 'ProfitWell' (company settings) node isn't explicitly connected to anything further in this specific workflow, which means its data is retrieved and then available but not necessarily passed to subsequent nodes in this defined chain." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow: trigger on manual execution, then fetch all posts from WordPress using the 'wp_creds' credential.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\"}, \"name\": \"Wordpress\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wordpress\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wordpress\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The goal here is pretty clear: trigger the workflow manually and then pull all the posts from a WordPress site using a specific credential.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need to think about is how this workflow is going to *start*. The prompt explicitly says \"trigger on manual execution.\" This immediately tells me I need a trigger node that allows for a human to initiate the workflow. Looking at the n8n nodes, the `Manual Trigger` node is perfect for this. It's designed exactly for this purpose \u2013 you click the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n UI, and it fires.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. I'll give it a descriptive name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's clear what it does. For this node, there are usually no specific parameters to configure; it just acts as a simple starting point. It doesn't need to gather any data itself, it just needs to exist to be triggered.\n\nNow that I have the starting point, the next step is to actually \"fetch all posts from WordPress.\" This clearly indicates I'll need a node that can interact with WordPress. n8n has a dedicated WordPress node, which is incredibly convenient.\n\nSo, I'll add a `Wordpress` node. Specifically, it would be of type `n8n-nodes-base.wordpress` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is designed to handle various WordPress operations. Before I even think about what operation it needs to perform, I need to make sure it's connected to my trigger. The `Manual Trigger` node typically has a single output, a 'main' output, which I'd connect to the 'main' input of this new `Wordpress` node. This connection ensures that when the `Manual Trigger` fires, it passes control to the `Wordpress` node, telling it to start its job.\n\nNow, let's configure this `Wordpress` node. The prompt states \"fetch all posts.\" Looking at the parameters for the WordPress node, I know there's an `operation` field. For fetching posts, \"getAll\" is the most appropriate operation to select. This tells the node to retrieve all available posts from the connected WordPress instance. There are usually other options, like filtering or pagination settings, but the prompt just says \"all posts,\" so \"getAll\" covers that perfectly without needing extra options for now. Therefore, I'll set `parameters.operation` to `\"getAll\"`. Any other `options` would typically remain empty or default unless I had specific filtering or sorting requirements, which I don't have here.\n\nFinally, and crucially, the WordPress node needs to know *which* WordPress site to connect to and how to authenticate. The prompt specifies using the `'wp_creds'` credential. So, within the `Wordpress` node's configuration, I would navigate to the `credentials` section. Here, I'd specify that the `wordpressApi` credential should use the pre-configured `wp_creds` credential. This is where the actual connection details like the WordPress site URL, API key, or username\/password are stored securely outside the workflow itself. By referencing `wp_creds`, the node knows exactly how to authenticate and talk to the WordPress site.\n\nAnd that's it. The manual trigger starts, passes control to the WordPress node, which then uses the defined credential to fetch all posts. The workflow would then complete, and the data would be available for inspection in the execution history." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object describing an n8n workflow named \"BasicLLMChain:AwsBedrockChat\" that uses an AWS Bedrock Chat model to answer the question \"How much is 1+1?\", and connects a manual trigger to the chain.

The goal is to create a workflow named \"BasicLLMChain:AwsBedrockChat\" that uses AWS Bedrock to answer \"How much is 1+1?\", and it needs a manual trigger connecting to an AWS Bedrock Chat chain, which in turn uses an AWS Bedrock Chat Model.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the requirements, it explicitly asks for a \"manual trigger\". So, that's the very first node I'll put down. I'd add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion` 1. I'll name it \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" because that's exactly what this node does \u2013 it allows you to manually start the workflow by clicking a button in the editor. This is great for development and testing because you have direct control over when the workflow runs.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions an \"AWS Bedrock Chat chain\". This tells me I'll need a node that can define a prompt and then execute it using a language model. In n8n, for LangChain-based operations, the `chainLlm` node is typically used for this purpose. So, I'll add a node of type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chainLlm` with `typeVersion` 1.5. I'll name it \"AWS Bedrock Chat\". This node will serve as the core logic for asking the question and getting a response from the LLM.\n\nNow, how do I connect these two? The manual trigger's purpose is to *start* the workflow. So, I'll connect the `main` output of my \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" (the manual trigger) to the `main` input of the \"AWS Bedrock Chat\" (the chain) node. This ensures that when the trigger fires, the chain node will execute.\n\nInside this \"AWS Bedrock Chat\" node, I need to configure the actual question. The prompt specifies \"How much is 1+1?\". So, I'll set its `promptType` parameter to \"define\" because I'm providing a specific, predefined prompt. Then, in the `text` parameter, I'll put \"How much is 1+1? Only provide the numerical answer without any other text.\\n\". Adding that instruction about only providing the numerical answer is a common best practice to ensure the LLM gives a concise, clean output for such a simple query, avoiding conversational fluff.\n\nThe \"AWS Bedrock Chat\" chain node now knows *what* to ask, but it doesn't yet know *which* language model to use to answer the question. This is where the \"AWS Bedrock Chat Model\" comes in, as specified in the prompt. So, I'll add another node. This will be of type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatAwsBedrock` with `typeVersion` 1. I'll name it \"AWS Bedrock Chat Model\". This node is the actual connection to the AWS Bedrock service and allows us to select a specific model.\n\nFor the configuration of the \"AWS Bedrock Chat Model\" node, I need to select the actual model. The JSON suggests \"amazon.titan-text-lite-v1\", so I'll set the `model` parameter to that. Also, under `options`, the `temperature` is set to 0. This is a good choice for a factual question like \"1+1\" because a temperature of 0 makes the model's responses more deterministic and less creative, increasing the likelihood of getting the correct, consistent numerical answer. As for credentials, this node would require AWS credentials to authenticate with the Bedrock service; these would be configured separately, typically by referencing an existing credential entry, but I won't specify the exact credential ID or name here, just note that an AWS credential would be used.\n\nFinally, I need to connect the \"AWS Bedrock Chat Model\" to the \"AWS Bedrock Chat\" chain. The chain needs to know *which* language model to use. The connection type for providing a language model to a LangChain node is typically `ai_languageModel`. So, I'll connect the `ai_languageModel` output of the \"AWS Bedrock Chat Model\" node to the `ai_languageModel` input of the \"AWS Bedrock Chat\" node. This establishes the relationship, telling the chain to send its prompt to this specific AWS Bedrock model.\n\nAnd that completes the structure for this workflow. We have the trigger, the chain defining the question, and the specific AWS Bedrock model configured to answer it." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON representation of an n8n workflow that triggers via webhook, retrieves content from a specified Google Docs document, and returns the document's content as a response to the webhook.

The prompt clearly states \"triggers via webhook.\" So, my very first step, the absolute foundation of this workflow, has to be a `Webhook` node. I'd add a node of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\"`. Looking at the provided structure, it uses `typeVersion: 2`, which is a good, stable version for this. This node will be responsible for listening for incoming HTTP requests, effectively starting the workflow.\n\nNow, I need to configure this `Webhook` node. I see `path` as a parameter, which defines the unique endpoint for the webhook. Then, importantly, there's `responseMode: \"responseNode\"`. This is crucial because it means the webhook won't automatically send a response. Instead, it will wait for a dedicated \"Respond to Webhook\" node later in the workflow to handle the reply, which is exactly what we want since we need to send back dynamic content. The `options` parameter is just an empty object here, so no special settings there.\n\nOkay, so the workflow is triggered. What's next? The prompt says \"retrieves content from a specified Google Docs document.\" This immediately tells me I need an integration with Google Docs. So, I'd add a `Google Docs` node right after the `Webhook`. Its `type` would be `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and the JSON shows `typeVersion: 2`. This node will handle all the interaction with Google's document service.\n\nFor configuring the `Google Docs` node, I need to specify what it should do. The JSON shows `operation: \"get\"`. This is perfect, as we want to *retrieve* content. Then, there's `documentURL`, which is where I'd input the specific URL of the Google Docs document I want to fetch. To make this work, the node also requires credentials. It looks like it's set up to use `googleDocsOAuth2Api`, which is a standard way to authenticate with Google services, providing the necessary permissions to access the document. I'd configure the specific Google Docs account there.\n\nSo, the `Webhook` node will connect its `main` output to the `Google Docs` node's `main` input. This ensures that once a webhook call is received, the workflow seamlessly moves to fetching the document.\n\nFinally, after retrieving the document content, the prompt states \"returns the document's content as a response to the webhook.\" This is the last step. I need a node that can send an HTTP response back to the original caller of the webhook. The perfect node for this is the `Respond to Webhook` node. I'd add one of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\"` and the JSON specifies `typeVersion: 1.1`.\n\nNow, how to configure this `Respond to Webhook` node? I need to tell it *what* to send back and *how*. The JSON shows `respondWith: \"text\"`, indicating we'll send a plain text response. And for the actual content, it uses `responseBody: \"={{ $json.content }}\"`. This is an n8n expression. It means that the content of the response should be taken from the data passed into this node, specifically from a field named `content` within the incoming JSON data. I'm inferring here that the `Google Docs` node outputs the document's content in a property called `content`, and this expression correctly references that.\n\nThe connection for this last node would be from the `Google Docs` node's `main` output to the `Respond to Webhook` node's `main` input. This ensures the data fetched by Google Docs is passed directly to the response node.\n\nAs an overarching detail, the workflow is also meant to be tagged. This is really useful for organization, especially in environments with many workflows.

This is precisely designed for one workflow to call another. So, I'd add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` with `typeVersion` 1.1. I'd name it \"When Executed by Another Workflow\" as per the provided JSON, which makes its purpose super clear. For its configuration, the `inputSource` parameter is set to `passthrough`. This means any data passed into this workflow from the calling workflow will simply be carried through, which is fine since we're not explicitly processing incoming data, just responding to the trigger and setting a value.\n\nNext, the goal is to \"set a 'jiraDomain' variable to 'https:\/\/colosseum.atlassian.net'\". To achieve this, I need a node that can create or manipulate data. A `Code` node is incredibly versatile for this. It allows me to write JavaScript to define exactly what output I want. So, I'd add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.code` with `typeVersion` 1.\n\nNow, I need to connect these two nodes. The workflow flow should be: trigger first, then define the variable. So, the `main` output of the \"When Executed by Another Workflow\" node will connect to the `main` input of my `Code` node. This ensures that as soon as the workflow is called, it proceeds to the step that sets the variable.\n\nInside the `Code` node, I'd configure its `jsCode` parameter. The goal is to set `jiraDomain`. The JSON provides the exact code: `return [{ json: { jiraDomain: \"https:\/\/colosseum.atlassian.net\", } }];`. This snippet is perfect because it creates a single item (as an array with one element), and that item has a `json` property containing the `jiraDomain` key with the specified URL as its value. This makes the `jiraDomain` accessible in subsequent nodes (if any were added) or allows this value to be returned to the calling workflow. While the name of this node in the JSON is \"Set Today,\" which isn't directly related to Jira, the code itself accomplishes exactly what's needed for the `jiraDomain` variable. I'll stick to the \"Set Today\" name as given.\n\nFinally, I remember the overall workflow requirements: it needs to be named \"Get Jira Domain\" and marked as inactive. These are top-level workflow settings. So, after designing the node structure, I'd ensure the workflow's `name` property is set to \"Get Jira Domain\" and its `active` property is set to `false`. This ensures it won't run accidentally and is ready to be called explicitly." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with two Schedule Trigger nodes (named \"Trigger A\" and \"Trigger B\") both connected to a Set node (\"Edit Fields\") that assigns the previous node's name to a string variable called \"prevNode\".\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6a8c3d85-26f8-4f28-ace9-55a196a23d37\", \"name\": \"prevNode\", \"value\": \"={{ $prevNode.name }}\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [200, -100]}, {\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Trigger A\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [0, -100]}, {\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Trigger B\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [0, 100]}], \"connections\": {\"Trigger A\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Trigger B\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning out this workflow. The request is pretty clear: two schedule triggers, both feeding into a single `Set` node that captures the name of the triggering node.\n\nFirst things first, I need to get the triggers in place. Since the workflow needs to start on a schedule, a `Schedule Trigger` node is the obvious choice. The prompt specifically asks for two of them.\n\nSo, I'll begin by adding the first one. I'll choose the `Schedule Trigger` node, which in n8n is of type `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`. Looking at the provided JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1.2`. This is a stable version for this node type. I'll name this one \"Trigger A\", as specified. For its configuration, the JSON shows `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This means it's set up with a default, empty interval rule. In a real scenario, I'd probably configure this to run \"every 5 minutes\" or \"once a day,\" but for now, it's just a placeholder for a scheduled event.\n\nNext, I need the second trigger. It's also a `Schedule Trigger` node, again with `typeVersion 1.2`. I'll name this one \"Trigger B\". Its configuration is identical to \"Trigger A,\" also using the default interval rule. Placing it slightly below \"Trigger A\" makes the workflow visually cleaner, as indicated by the position coordinates in the JSON. This ensures both triggers are ready to independently kick off the subsequent part of the workflow.\n\nNow that I have my two starting points, I need a way to process the data they send. The goal is to capture the *name* of whichever trigger node fires and put it into a variable called \"prevNode\". For adding or modifying data fields in an incoming item, a `Set` node is perfect. It allows me to define new variables or overwrite existing ones.\n\nSo, I'll add a `Set` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and the JSON specifies `typeVersion 3.4`. This version of the Set node offers good flexibility for assignments. I'll name this node \"Edit Fields\" as per the requirement.\n\nNow, for the configuration of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This is where the core logic of the request comes in. I need to create a new variable named \"prevNode\". So, under the `assignments` parameter, I'll add a new assignment. Its `name` will be \"prevNode\". The `type` for this variable should be \"string\", as the node's name is text.\n\nThe critical part is the `value`. The JSON shows `={{ $prevNode.name }}`. This is a powerful n8n expression. `$prevNode` is a special variable that dynamically refers to the node that *directly fed* data into the current node. By adding `.name`, I'm specifically asking for the name property of that previous node. So, if \"Trigger A\" activates \"Edit Fields\", `$prevNode.name` will resolve to \"Trigger A\". If \"Trigger B\" activates it, it will resolve to \"Trigger B\". This is exactly what the prompt asked for \u2013 assigning the previous node's name to \"prevNode\". This dynamic referencing is much more efficient than trying to figure out which trigger fired using conditional logic.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these nodes. Both \"Trigger A\" and \"Trigger B\" need to feed into the \"Edit Fields\" node. So, I'll draw a connection from the \"main\" output of \"Trigger A\" to the \"main\" input of \"Edit Fields\". Similarly, I'll connect the \"main\" output of \"Trigger B\" to the \"main\" input of \"Edit Fields\". This ensures that no matter which schedule trigger runs, its data (and more importantly, its contextual information like its name) will flow into the \"Edit Fields\" node for processing. The \"Edit Fields\" node will then receive the execution context from whichever trigger node initiated its run, allowing the `$prevNode.name` expression to correctly identify the source." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that uses a Cron node to trigger an OpenWeatherMap node to get the temperature in Berlin, then sends the temperature via Plivo SMS.

The user wants to get the temperature in Berlin at a specific time and then send it via Plivo SMS.\n\nFirst, I need to consider how to start this workflow. Since the requirement is to trigger it at a certain time, a scheduling node is the obvious choice. Looking at the provided JSON, it uses a `Cron` node, which is perfect for scheduled tasks.\n\nSo, I'll start by adding a `Cron` node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.cron`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node is ideal for setting up recurring triggers based on a time schedule. The user wants to get the temperature, presumably on a recurring basis, so this fits perfectly.\n* **Configuration:** The JSON shows `{\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 9}]}}`. This means the workflow will be triggered daily at 9 AM. This is a good default for a morning temperature update. I wouldn't need to specify minutes or days if 9 AM daily is the goal, which it seems to be.\n\nNext, once the workflow is triggered, I need to actually get the temperature data. The prompt specifically mentions OpenWeatherMap. So, an OpenWeatherMap node is what I'll need. This node will naturally connect from the `Cron` node, as it needs to run *after* the trigger.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node is specifically designed to interact with the OpenWeatherMap API to retrieve weather data, which is exactly what's required.\n* **Connection:** It will receive its input from the `Cron` node. The `Cron` node simply initiates the workflow; it doesn't pass specific data, but rather signals the start, allowing the OpenWeatherMap node to execute.\n* **Configuration:**\n * The prompt specifies \"temperature in Berlin.\" So, the `cityName` parameter in this node will be set to `\"berlin\"`. This is crucial for getting the correct location's data.\n * For credentials, an OpenWeatherMap API key would be required. This would be configured in the credentials section, allowing the node to authenticate with the OpenWeatherMap service.\n\nFinally, after getting the temperature data, the last step is to send it via Plivo SMS. This means I'll need a Plivo node. This node will receive the temperature data from the OpenWeatherMap node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.plivo`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** The `Plivo` node is the direct solution for sending SMS messages using the Plivo service, fulfilling the \"sends the temperature via Plivo SMS\" requirement.\n* **Connection:** This node will receive input from the `OpenWeatherMap` node. The data coming from OpenWeatherMap will contain the temperature, which the Plivo node will then use in its message.\n* **Configuration:**\n * The most important part here is the `message` content. The JSON shows `\"=Hey! The temperature outside is {{$node[\\\"OpenWeatherMap\\\"].json[\\\"main\\\"][\\\"temp\\\"]}}\\u00b0C.\"`. This is an expression, which is exactly what I need to dynamically insert the temperature. It uses the `{{ $node[\"OpenWeatherMap\"].json[\"main\"][\"temp\"] }}` syntax to pull the `temp` value from the `main` object within the JSON output of the `OpenWeatherMap` node. This ensures the SMS message includes the live temperature.\n * Similar to OpenWeatherMap, Plivo API credentials would be configured here to allow the node to authenticate with the Plivo service and send the SMS.\n\nSo, the flow is quite straightforward: The `Cron` node triggers the workflow at 9 AM. This activates the `OpenWeatherMap` node, which fetches Berlin's temperature. Once that data is retrieved, it's passed to the `Plivo` node, which then constructs and sends an SMS containing that temperature. It's a clean, linear workflow meeting all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that retrieves data from a Customer Datastore, then sets a new property on the retrieved data. The workflow starts with a manual trigger, retrieves all people from the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node, limits the results to 10, and uses a \"Set\" node to add `objectValue.prop1` (123) and `objectValue.prop2` (\"someText\") to the output.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow 8\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\", \"limit\": 10}, \"name\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [940, 680]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop1\", \"value\": 123}], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop2\", \"value\": \"someText\"}]}, \"options\": {\"dotNotation\": true}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1300, 680]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 680]}], \"connections\": {\"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start thinking through how to build this n8n workflow. The request specifies a few key things: it needs to start manually, fetch some data, limit that data, and then modify it by adding new properties.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly says the workflow starts with a manual trigger. So, my initial thought is to grab a manual trigger node. Looking at the JSON, indeed, the first node defined is a manual trigger.\n\nSo, I'd add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect because it allows me to execute the workflow whenever I click \"Test workflow\" in the editor or manually trigger it from the UI. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters, which aligns with the empty `parameters` object in the JSON for this node. I'll name it something like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" to make its purpose clear, just as it's named in the provided JSON.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt says \"retrieves all people from the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node, limits the results to 10\". This tells me the very next step after the trigger needs to be interacting with that specific datastore.\n\nSo, I'd connect the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node's output to a new node. This new node needs to be the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" one. Based on the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` with `typeVersion: 1`. This particular node type is designed to interact with that specific training data source, so it's the exact fit for the requirement.\n\nNow, how do I configure this \"Customer Datastore\" node? The prompt specifies \"retrieves all people\" and \"limits the results to 10\". Looking at the JSON's parameters for this node, I see `{\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\", \"limit\": 10}`. This perfectly matches the requirements. So, I would set the 'Operation' field to `getAllPeople` to ensure it fetches all available person records, and then I'd use the 'Limit' option and set its value to `10`. This ensures we only process a manageable subset of the data, as requested.\n\nOkay, so we've triggered the workflow, and we've successfully retrieved a limited set of customer data. The final part of the prompt is \"uses a 'Set' node to add `objectValue.prop1` (123) and `objectValue.prop2` (\"someText\") to the output.\" This means after getting the data, we need to modify each item.\n\nA \"Set\" node is ideal for this. Its purpose is to add or modify properties on incoming data. So, I would connect the output of the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node to a new \"Set\" node. The JSON confirms this connection and the node type: `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow for the configuration of this \"Set\" node. We need to add two specific properties: `objectValue.prop1` with a value of `123` (which is a number) and `objectValue.prop2` with a value of `\"someText\"` (which is a string).\n\nTo achieve `objectValue.prop1` and `objectValue.prop2`, I need to use dot notation, as these are nested properties. The \"Set\" node has an option for this. Looking at the JSON's parameters for the Set node, I see `{\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop1\", \"value\": 123}], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop2\", \"value\": \"someText\"}]}, \"options\": {\"dotNotation\": true}}`.\n\nThis tells me exactly how to configure it:\n1. I'd add a new 'Value' field. For `objectValue.prop1`, since its value is `123`, I'd select the 'Number' type. I'd then enter `objectValue.prop1` as the 'Name' and `123` as the 'Value'.\n2. Next, I'd add another 'Value' field. For `objectValue.prop2`, its value is `\"someText\"`, so I'd select the 'String' type. I'd enter `objectValue.prop2` as the 'Name' and `\"someText\"` as the 'Value'.\n3. Crucially, because we're using dot notation for nested properties (`objectValue.prop1`), I need to make sure the 'Options' for the Set node have 'Dot Notation' enabled. The JSON confirms `dotNotation: true` under the `options` key, so I would check that box in the node's settings. This ensures the node interprets `objectValue.prop1` as a nested path rather than a literal property name.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. We've got a trigger, a data retrieval step with limits, and a final step to enrich the data with new, specific properties, all adhering to the provided JSON structure and the prompt's requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON workflow for n8n that triggers manually, sets a field named \"body\" with an XML string containing book data (title, author, year, ISBN), and includes appropriate node IDs and positions.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [420, 220]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fields\": {\"values\": [{\"name\": \"body\", \"stringValue\": \" Introduction to XML<\/title> <author>John Doe<\/author> <publication_year>2020<\/publication_year> <isbn>1234567890<\/isbn> <\/book> <book> <title>Data Science Basics<\/title> <author>Jane Smith<\/author> <publication_year>2019<\/publication_year> <isbn>0987654321<\/isbn> <\/book> <book> <title>Programming in Python<\/title> <author>Bob Johnson<\/author> <publication_year>2021<\/publication_year> <isbn>5432109876<\/isbn> <\/book> <\/library>\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.2, \"position\": [640, 220]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this n8n workflow from the ground up, based on the requirements.\n\nFirst, I need to consider what kicks off this whole process. The prompt says it should \"trigger manually\". This immediately brings to mind the `Manual Trigger` node in n8n. It's super straightforward \u2013 it doesn't listen for external events or schedules; it just waits for a user to click a button to start the workflow. This is exactly what we need for a manual initiation.\n\nSo, for my first node, I'll go with the `Manual Trigger` node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1` (This is the standard and most common version for this simple trigger).\n* **Why this node:** Because the requirement is for the workflow to be triggered manually. There's no simpler or more direct way to achieve this in n8n. It's just a starting point that allows user intervention.\n* **Node Name:** I'd call it something clear, like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", which accurately describes how it's used.\n* **Position:** I'll place it at `[420, 220]` on the canvas as a good starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt states that the workflow needs to \"set a field named \"body\" with an XML string containing book data\". This tells me I need a node that can manipulate data, specifically by adding a new field or modifying an existing one with a static value.\n\nThe `Set` node is perfectly suited for this. It's designed precisely for defining and setting specific fields and their values within the incoming data. This is much better than, say, a `Function` node if all I need to do is add static data, as the `Set` node is more visual and requires less coding.\n\nSo, my second node will be a `Set` node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `3.2` (This is a common and robust version of the Set node, which has seen several improvements over time, but its core functionality of setting fields remains consistent.)\n* **Why this node:** Its purpose is to explicitly define and assign values to fields in the data stream. This is exactly what's required: setting a field named \"body\" with a specific XML string.\n* **Node Name:** \"Edit Fields\" seems appropriate, as it's where I'm defining the new `body` field.\n* **Position:** I'll place it to the right of the trigger node, perhaps at `[640, 220]`, to visually represent the flow.\n\nNow, how do I configure this `Set` node?\n* I need to add a new field. So, within the `parameters.fields.values` array, I'll add an object.\n* The `name` of this field needs to be \"body\", as per the prompt.\n* The `stringValue` parameter will hold the actual XML data. This XML needs to be a well-formed string and contain the specified book data (title, author, publication year, ISBN). I'll make sure it's valid XML, with a root element like `<library>` and nested `<book>` elements. It's important to include the XML declaration `<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>` for good practice. The content will be the actual book data provided in the example.\n* The `options` parameter will be left empty, as no special options like \"Keep Only Set\" are specified or required for this simple data insertion.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The `Manual Trigger` starts the workflow, and its output (which is just an empty item to kick things off) should flow directly into the `Set` node. The `Set` node will then take that incoming item and add the \"body\" field to it.\n\n* **Connection:** The `main` output of \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" (`n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`) will connect to the `main` input of \"Edit Fields\" (`n8n-nodes-base.set`).\n* The connection `index` will be `0` as it's the primary and only input connection.\n\nAnd that's it. This setup fully addresses the requirements: a manual trigger, and then the setting of a specific XML string into a field named \"body\", all with appropriate node types, versions, and positions." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers manually, reads a PDF binary file from `\/data\/pdf.pdf`, and then extracts the text from the PDF.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 400]}, {\"parameters\": {\"filePath\": \"\/data\/pdf.pdf\"}, \"name\": \"Read Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [880, 400]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Read PDF\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.readPDF\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1090, 400]}], \"connections\": {\"Read Binary File\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Read PDF\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Read Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's lay out the thought process for building this n8n workflow.\n\nFirst, I always start by looking at the core request: \"Generate an n8n workflow that triggers manually, reads a PDF binary file from `\/data\/pdf.pdf`, and then extracts the text from the PDF.\" This gives me three clear stages: trigger, file reading, and text extraction.\n\nSo, the very first thing any n8n workflow needs is a way to kick it off. The prompt explicitly says \"triggers manually.\" This immediately points me to a specific node type.\n\n* I'll start by adding a **Trigger** node. Given the \"manually\" requirement, the `Manual Trigger` node is the perfect choice. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and in this case, I'd use `typeVersion 1`. This node is super simple; it doesn't really have any configurable parameters because its job is just to provide a starting point when you click the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n UI. It's essentially the \"start\" button for this particular process.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"reads a PDF binary file from `\/data\/pdf.pdf`.\" This tells me I need a node that can access the file system and retrieve a file.\n\n* After the trigger, I'll add a node to handle the file reading. The `Read Binary File` node seems like the most appropriate tool for this. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile`, and I'd go with `typeVersion 1`. This node is designed specifically for reading binary content from a specified path on the file system where n8n is running.\n* For its configuration, the prompt gives me the exact path: `\/data\/pdf.pdf`. So, within the `parameters` of this `Read Binary File` node, I would set the `filePath` option to `\/data\/pdf.pdf`. This tells the node exactly which file to pick up.\n* Now, I need to connect the `Manual Trigger` to this `Read Binary File` node. The `Manual Trigger` doesn't pass any data per se, but it needs to initiate the execution flow. So, I'll create a connection from the `main` output of the `On clicking 'execute'` (the Manual Trigger) node to the `main` input of the `Read Binary File` node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually started, the file reading process begins immediately.\n\nFinally, the prompt states \"and then extracts the text from the PDF.\" This is the core action after getting the file.\n\n* For this, n8n conveniently has a dedicated node called `Read PDF`. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.readPDF`, and I'd use `typeVersion 1`. This node is specifically built to process PDF files and extract their textual content. It expects a binary file as input, which is exactly what the `Read Binary File` node provides.\n* Looking at the parameters for the `Read PDF` node in the JSON, there are none explicitly set. This suggests that for basic text extraction, the default settings of the `Read PDF` node are sufficient. It will simply take the binary PDF content it receives and attempt to extract all text. If I needed to, say, extract text from specific pages or apply other advanced settings, those options would be configured here, but the prompt doesn't ask for that complexity.\n* To get the PDF content from the `Read Binary File` node to the `Read PDF` node, I need to establish a connection. The `Read Binary File` node outputs the binary content of the file. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the `Read Binary File` node to the `main` input of the `Read PDF` node.

The request is pretty clear: a manual trigger, two \"Edit Fields\" nodes in sequence, and then it also mentions two placeholder \"Unknown nodes.\" I'll build it out following the JSON provided, making sure to explain each choice.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the JSON, I see a node named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\". This immediately tells me it's designed to kick off the workflow manually.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This is the perfect node for a \"manual trigger\" requirement. It means someone has to explicitly click the \"Test workflow\" button in the n8n editor or activate the workflow if it's set to \"active\" and then trigger it. It's simple, direct, and exactly what's needed for a user-initiated workflow start. The `parameters` object is empty, which makes sense for a manual trigger as it doesn't typically need complex configuration beyond just being present.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the prompt specifies that it should connect to the first \"Edit Fields\" node. I'll look for a node that fits that description. I see one named \"Edit Fields\" in the JSON.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `3.2`\n* **Reasoning:** The `set` node, often named \"Edit Fields\" or \"Set,\" is excellent for adding, renaming, or removing fields from the incoming data, or setting specific values. It's a foundational node for data manipulation within a workflow. Since the prompt asks for \"Edit Fields\" nodes, this `set` type is exactly what I'd choose. The `parameters.options` object is empty here, meaning that in this specific workflow, no fields are being added, removed, or modified by this first \"Edit Fields\" node. It's essentially a pass-through in its current configuration, but it's positioned to receive data from the manual trigger.\n* **Connection:** The JSON confirms the `When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019` node's `main` output connects to this \"Edit Fields\" node's `main` input. This ensures that when the workflow is triggered, the data (which is usually an empty JSON object from a manual trigger, unless manually added in the test execution) flows directly into this first `set` node.\n\nFollowing the sequence, the first \"Edit Fields\" node needs to connect to a second one. I see another `set` node in the JSON named \"Edit Fields1\".\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `3.2`\n* **Reasoning:** Just like the previous one, this is another `set` node, perfectly suited for performing additional data modifications or simply acting as a placeholder for a future data manipulation step. The \"1\" in its name just indicates it's a second instance of the same type of node. Again, its `parameters.options` are empty, meaning no actual field operations are defined in this specific setup, but it's ready to receive and pass data.\n* **Connection:** The JSON clearly shows the \"Edit Fields\" node's `main` output connecting to this \"Edit Fields1\" node's `main` input. So, data processed (or passed through) by the first \"Edit Fields\" node will then move directly to this second one. This creates the sequential flow requested.\n\nFinally, I notice two other nodes in the JSON that weren't part of the direct sequence described (\"manual trigger, two 'Edit Fields' nodes connected in sequence\"). These are labeled \"Unknown node 1\" and \"Unknown node 2\".\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist` and `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither`\n* **Type Version:** `1` for both\n* **Reasoning:** These are clearly placeholder nodes, as indicated by their `type` names. They are not connected to the main flow of the manual trigger and \"Edit Fields\" nodes. They appear to be unattached, perhaps representing nodes that were planned but not implemented, or just included for some other purpose. Since they're not part of the described sequential flow, they don't impact the execution path of the core workflow we've just laid out. They're just \"there\" in the JSON.\n\nSo, in summary, the workflow starts with the manual trigger, which then feeds into the first \"Edit Fields\" (set) node, and from there, the data flows to the second \"Edit Fields\" (set) node, creating a straightforward two-step data modification process following a manual initiation. The other two \"Unknown node\"s exist within the workflow file but are isolated." } { "prompt": "Create a JSON representation of an n8n workflow named \"Test workflow 1\" containing a manual trigger node and a code node that adds a field \"myNewField\" with a value of 1 to each input item. The workflow also includes some tags.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Test workflow 1\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [220, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"jsCode\": \"\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\\n}\\n\\nreturn $input.all();\"}, \"name\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.code\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [400, 260]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Code\": {\"main\": [[]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The request specifies a JSON representation for an n8n workflow named \"Test workflow 1\" with a manual trigger and a code node to add a specific field, plus some tags.\n\nFirst off, I'd start by giving the workflow a meaningful name, as per the request: \"Test workflow 1\". This helps with organization and finding it later. I also see it's initially set to `active: false`, which is standard when you're building and testing; you don't want it running automatically until it's ready.\n\nNow, for the core logic, I need to think about what starts this workflow. The prompt clearly states a \"manual trigger node\". So, the very first node I'd bring onto the canvas would be a Trigger node. Specifically, looking at the JSON, it's identified as `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect because it means the workflow will only execute when I manually click the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n editor, or when explicitly triggered via its API endpoint. It doesn't need any complex configurations or parameters for this particular use case, which is why its `parameters` object is empty. I'd position it at a logical starting point, maybe around `[220, 260]` on the grid, just to keep things tidy.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions a \"code node that adds a field \"myNewField\" with a value of 1 to each input item.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can execute custom JavaScript. The `Code` node is the ideal candidate for this. So, I'd drag a `Code` node onto the canvas. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.code` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is incredibly powerful for custom data manipulation that might not be possible with standard nodes or for more complex logic.\n\nNow, how do I connect these? The manual trigger needs to pass its execution signal (and potentially an empty item, or whatever default it generates) to the code node so the code can run. So, I'd draw a connection from the `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` node (named \"On clicking 'execute'\" in the JSON) to the `main` input of the `Code` node. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, the code node is activated.\n\nFor the `Code` node itself, I need to configure its `jsCode` parameter. The goal is to add a field named \"myNewField\" with a value of `1` to *each* input item. The provided JSON shows exactly how to do this:\n\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\n\nThis code snippet is very clear. It iterates through all incoming items using `$input.all()`. For each `item`, it accesses its `json` property (which is where the actual data payload resides) and then directly assigns `myNewField` with the value `1`. Finally, it returns `$input.all()` to ensure that all processed items are passed along to the next node in the workflow, if there were any, maintaining the data flow. This is a common pattern in the Code node: process items and then return them. I'd place this node logically after the trigger, perhaps at `[400, 260]`, slightly to the right to visually represent the flow.\n\nLooking at the connections, the \"Code\" node doesn't have any outgoing connections defined in the `connections` object for its `main` output (`{\"main\": [[]]}`). This means it's the end of this particular workflow path, which is fine for this simple example. The processed items with the new field would simply be the final output of the workflow's execution.\n\nFinally, the workflow also includes `tags`. Tags are really useful for categorization and searching, especially as workflows grow in number. The JSON shows two tags: \"some-tag-1\" and \"some-tag-2\". These wouldn't directly impact the execution logic but are crucial for workflow management. I'd make sure these are properly associated with the workflow settings, so it's easily discoverable later. They're just metadata, really, but very helpful.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The workflow starts manually, processes data by adding a new field, and then concludes. Simple, efficient, and meets all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that uses the Manual Trigger node to trigger a Yourls node to shorten a URL, then another Yourls node to get the stats of the shortened URL.

The prompt specifically mentions using a \"Manual Trigger node,\" and looking at the JSON, I see `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect because it allows the user to manually initiate the workflow, which aligns perfectly with the requirement. So, I'll add a Manual Trigger node, likely named something like \"On clicking 'execute',\" as it is in the JSON. Its purpose is simply to start the execution flow when a user clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n UI. There are no specific parameters to configure for this node, as its function is purely to act as a manual start signal.\n\nNext, the prompt states we need to \"trigger a Yourls node to shorten a URL.\" This means I'll need a Yourls node, which I see in the JSON as `n8n-nodes-base.yourls` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed to interact with the Yourls API, making it the ideal choice for both shortening URLs and later, getting stats. I'll connect the output of my Manual Trigger node to the input of this new Yourls node.\n\nFor this first Yourls node, its primary operation will be to shorten a URL. So, I'll need to make sure the operation is set correctly for shortening. Looking at the JSON, the `url` parameter is configured with a specific long URL. So, I would configure this node by providing the full URL that needs to be shortened in its `url` field. Additionally, the JSON shows an `additionalFields` object with a `title`. This is useful for providing a descriptive title for the shortened URL within Yourls, which helps with organization and understanding what the short link points to. I'd input a relevant title for the URL being shortened.\n\nCrucially, this Yourls node needs credentials. The prompt explicitly states \"Include credentials named 'Yourls' for the Yourls API.\" The JSON confirms this by showing `credentials: {\"yourlsApi\": \"Yourls\"}`. So, before running this, a Yourls API credential named \"Yourls\" would need to be set up in n8n, containing the Yourls API URL and API key. This credential then gets linked to this node, allowing it to authenticate with the Yourls service.\n\nAfter shortening the URL, the prompt asks to \"then another Yourls node to get the stats of the shortened URL.\" This implies a sequential operation: first shorten, *then* get stats. So, I'll add another Yourls node, again of type `n8n-nodes-base.yourls` and `typeVersion: 1`. This second Yourls node will need to be connected to the output of the first Yourls node, ensuring that it only runs *after* the first one has successfully shortened the URL and provided its output.\n\nNow, for configuring this second Yourls node, its operation needs to be `stats`. I can see in the JSON that `operation: \"stats\"` is correctly set. The key piece of information this node needs is the *shortened URL* that was just created by the previous Yourls node. I can see in the JSON that `shortUrl` is configured using an expression: `={{$node[\"Yourls\"].json[\"shorturl\"]}}`. This is a fantastic way to pass data between nodes. It means that this Yourls node will dynamically retrieve the `shorturl` property from the JSON output of the *previous* node (the one named \"Yourls\"). This ensures we're getting stats for the exact URL that was just shortened. This is essential for the workflow to be dynamic and work with any URL passed to the first node.\n\nJust like the first Yourls node, this second one will also require credentials to interact with the Yourls API. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"yourlsApi\": \"Yourls\"}`, indicating it reuses the same \"Yourls\" credential configured previously. This is efficient as you only need to manage one set of credentials for all Yourls operations in the workflow.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The workflow would start manually, shorten a URL, and then immediately get the statistics for that newly shortened URL, leveraging the output from the first operation for the second." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow: a manual trigger connected to a Facebook Graph API node configured to retrieve the first and last name of the user associated with the connected credentials.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"node\": \"me\", \"options\": {\"fields\": {\"field\": [{\"name\": \"last_name\"}, {\"name\": \"first_name\"}]}}}, \"name\": \"Facebook Graph API\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.facebookGraphApi\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Facebook Graph API\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The goal is pretty straightforward: we need to manually trigger a call to the Facebook Graph API to get the user's first and last name using their connected credentials.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick it off. Looking at the prompt, it explicitly mentions a \"manual trigger.\" So, that's where I'll begin.\n\nI'll add a **Manual Trigger** node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. It's the perfect choice here because the user wants to initiate the workflow themselves, probably by clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n interface. It doesn't require any specific configuration; it just waits for a user to tell it to run. It's simple, direct, and exactly what's requested for a manual start.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next step is to actually *do* something. The prompt says we need to connect to the \"Facebook Graph API\" to retrieve user information. This clearly points to using a dedicated Facebook Graph API node if n8n has one, which it does.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Facebook Graph API** node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.facebookGraphApi` and is `typeVersion: 1`. This is the most suitable node for interacting with Facebook's API because it abstracts away much of the complexity of making HTTP requests and handling authentication, providing a user-friendly interface for common Facebook operations.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The Manual Trigger's job is just to initiate the workflow. It doesn't pass any specific data that the Facebook Graph API node needs, but it signals to it that it's time to execute. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the `main` input of the \"Facebook Graph API\" node. This ensures that when the trigger runs, the Facebook node will activate.\n\nNext, I need to configure the **Facebook Graph API** node to get the right information. The prompt specifically asks for the \"first and last name of the user associated with the connected credentials.\"\n\n* The `node` parameter needs to specify *what* we're querying on Facebook's graph. To get information about the *current* user (the one whose credentials are used), the standard Graph API endpoint is `\/me`. So, I'll set the `node` parameter to `\"me\"`. This tells Facebook we want data about the authenticated user.\n\n* Then, we need to specify *what fields* of information we want about that user. The prompt asks for \"first and last name.\" The Facebook Graph API uses specific field names for this. I'll go into the `options` and then `fields` property. Within `fields`, there's a sub-property `field` which is an array, allowing us to list multiple fields.\n * I'll add one entry to this `field` array and set its `name` to `\"last_name\"`.\n * And then I'll add another entry to this `field` array and set its `name` to `\"first_name\"`.\n This configuration ensures that the API call will explicitly request these two pieces of information, and only these, for the authenticated user.\n\nFinally, for the **Facebook Graph API** node to work, it needs credentials to authenticate with Facebook. The JSON shows a `credentials` property with `facebookGraphApi: \"graph_credentials\"`. This indicates that a Facebook Graph API credential entry, likely named \"graph_credentials\" in the n8n instance, would be configured separately. This credential would contain the necessary access tokens or application details to make authenticated calls to Facebook on behalf of the user. I wouldn't specify the actual sensitive values here, but I know that this is where the authentication setup would live for this particular Facebook node.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The manual trigger starts it, and the Facebook Graph API node, configured to query `me` for `first_name` and `last_name` using pre-configured credentials, retrieves the desired information." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a manual trigger connected to a Switch node (with 3 empty rules) and the third output of the Switch connected to an Edit Fields node.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [440, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"rules\": {\"values\": [{\"conditions\": {\"options\": {\"caseSensitive\": true, \"leftValue\": \"\", \"typeValidation\": \"strict\"}, \"conditions\": [{\"leftValue\": \"\", \"rightValue\": \"\", \"operator\": {\"type\": \"string\", \"operation\": \"equals\"}}], \"combinator\": \"and\"}}, {}, {}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.switch\", \"typeVersion\": 3, \"position\": [660, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.3, \"position\": [840, 480]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Switch\": {\"main\": [null, null, [{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start building this workflow. The prompt describes a fairly straightforward flow: a trigger, a conditional switch, and then an action node.\n\nI think I need to start by adding a Trigger node. Looking at the prompt, it specifies a \"manual trigger,\" which is perfect for initiating a workflow simply by clicking a button in the editor. So, I'll add a `Manual Trigger` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and from the JSON, I see its `typeVersion` is 1. This node is great because it allows for easy testing and debugging of the workflow without needing external events. I'd place it somewhere in the top-left area to signify the start of the flow, perhaps around coordinates [440, 380] as per the JSON. No specific parameters need to be set for this node; it just provides a basic input item when triggered.\n\nNext, the prompt states that the manual trigger should be connected to a `Switch` node. This makes sense; a Switch node is used for routing data based on certain conditions, allowing the workflow to take different paths. So, my next step is to add a `Switch` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.switch`, and the JSON indicates `typeVersion` 3. This is the latest version for Switch nodes and offers robust conditional logic capabilities. I'd position it to the right of the `Manual Trigger`, perhaps around [660, 380], to visually represent the flow.\n\nNow, for configuring this `Switch` node. The prompt specifies \"3 empty rules.\" The JSON confirms this structure under the `parameters.rules.values` array.\n* The first rule actually has a default empty condition: `{\"conditions\": {\"options\": {\"caseSensitive\": true, \"leftValue\": \"\", \"typeValidation\": \"strict\"}, \"conditions\": [{\"leftValue\": \"\", \"rightValue\": \"\", \"operator\": {\"type\": \"string\", \"operation\": \"equals\"}}], \"combinator\": \"and\"}}`. This means if I were setting it up manually, I'd just add a rule and leave its fields blank, which defaults to an \"equals empty string\" condition.\n* The second rule is simply `{}`, meaning it's an empty rule without any pre-defined conditions.\n* The third rule is also `{}`, another empty rule.\nThese empty rules mean that no specific conditions are defined for routing, so data would typically fall through to the \"else\" branch or behave unexpectedly depending on the Switch node's default behavior for empty rules. For this workflow, it's just about setting up the structure as requested. The `options` parameter is also empty, implying no advanced options like \"Always Output Else\" are set.\n\nThe `Manual Trigger` node now needs to be connected to the `Switch` node. The connection should be from the `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` to the `main` input of the `Switch` node, specifically index 0 as it's the primary input. This ensures any data (even just an empty item) generated by the manual trigger is passed directly to the `Switch` node for evaluation.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"the third output of the Switch connected to an Edit Fields node.\" The `Switch` node, with its 3 rules, will have 4 possible outputs: one for each rule (rule 1, rule 2, rule 3) and then an 'Else' output. The \"third output\" refers to the output corresponding to the third rule. In a 0-indexed array, this would be `index: 2`.\n\nSo, I need an `Edit Fields` node. The JSON shows this as a `Set` node. The `Set` node is perfect for this, as it allows you to add, remove, or modify fields on incoming items. The name \"Edit Fields\" is just a user-defined name for a `Set` node in n8n. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and it's `typeVersion` 3.3. I'd place it to the right and slightly below the `Switch` node, perhaps at [840, 480], to align with the connection coming from one of the `Switch` node's lower outputs.\n\nLooking at the `parameters` for the `Edit Fields` (Set) node, the `options` are empty. This implies that no specific fields are being added, removed, or modified. It's just a placeholder node at the end of this particular branch of the workflow.\n\nNow for the connection: the JSON indicates the connection from `Switch` node's `main` output array, at index 2 (which corresponds to the third output), goes to the `Edit Fields` node's `main` input, index 0. This means if any data flows through the third rule's branch of the `Switch` node (which it won't with empty rules unless the switch has a default pass-through, or if data is explicitly routed there), it will then proceed to the `Edit Fields` node. The other two outputs of the Switch node are `null`, meaning they don't connect to anything in this specific workflow definition.\n\nSo, the data flow would be: `Manual Trigger` fires -> `Switch` node receives data -> `Switch` node evaluates its (empty) rules -> If an item somehow matches the third rule or is otherwise routed to its output, it passes to the `Edit Fields` node. With the empty rules, it's likely no data will pass unless manual intervention or specific Switch node behaviors are in play, but the structure is correctly set up as requested." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers daily at 9 AM to fetch Berlin's weather from OpenWeatherMap and sends a weather update message via Gotify.

My goal is to create a workflow that fetches Berlin's weather daily at 9 AM and then sends that information, specifically the temperature, via Gotify.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick off this whole process at a specific time every day. Looking at the requirements, it needs to trigger daily at 9 AM. For that, the most appropriate node type would be a trigger that handles scheduled events. So, I'd go for the `Cron` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.cron` and for this purpose, `typeVersion: 1` should be perfectly fine. I'll place it as my starting point, let's say at coordinates [490, 340].\n\nNow, how do I configure this `Cron` node to trigger at 9 AM? I'd look at its parameters. The JSON shows `{\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 9}]}}`. This is exactly what I need. I'll set the `hour` property to `9` within the `triggerTimes` configuration. This ensures that every day when the clock hits 9 AM, this node will activate and send out a signal to the next node in the workflow. It's a reliable way to automate daily tasks.\n\nOkay, so I have the trigger set up. What's next? The prompt says \"fetch Berlin's weather from OpenWeatherMap\". This immediately tells me I need a node that can interact with the OpenWeatherMap API. n8n has a dedicated node for this, which simplifies things immensely. So, I'll choose the `OpenWeatherMap` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap`, and `typeVersion: 1` is the current standard for it. I'll connect its main input to the main output of the `Cron` node. This means that as soon as the `Cron` node triggers, it will pass control to the `OpenWeatherMap` node. I'll place this node to the right of the `Cron` node, maybe around [690, 340].\n\nFor the `OpenWeatherMap` node, I need to specify *which* city's weather I want. The prompt clearly states \"Berlin\". So, in the node's parameters, I'll set `cityName` to `\"berlin\"`. Additionally, to access the OpenWeatherMap API, this node will require API credentials. I'd expect a field like `openWeatherMapApi` where a user would provide their specific API key. The JSON indicates `\"owm\"` as a placeholder name for these credentials, but the actual key itself would be configured securely within the n8n credentials management. I wouldn't need to specify the actual key here, just ensure the credential binding is in place.\n\nAfter fetching the weather data, the final step is to \"send a weather update message via Gotify. The message should include the current temperature in Celsius.\" This points directly to the `Gotify` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.gotify`, and again, `typeVersion: 1` is appropriate. I'll connect its main input to the main output of the `OpenWeatherMap` node. This way, the weather data fetched by OpenWeatherMap will be available for the Gotify node to use. I'll position it to the right of the OpenWeatherMap node, perhaps at [890, 340].\n\nNow, the crucial part for the `Gotify` node: constructing the message. The message needs to include the current temperature. The `OpenWeatherMap` node will output a JSON object containing various weather details, including temperature. I need to dynamically extract that temperature. Looking at the JSON, the `message` parameter for Gotify is set to `\"=Hey! The temperature outside is {{$node[\\\"OpenWeatherMap\\\"].json[\\\"main\\\"][\\\"temp\\\"]}}\\u00b0C.\"`. This is a perfect example of using an expression. The `$` indicates an expression, and `{{$node[\"OpenWeatherMap\"].json[\"main\"][\"temp\"]}}` correctly references the `temp` property nested within the `main` object of the JSON output from the `OpenWeatherMap` node. This means the temperature value will be pulled directly from the weather data we just fetched.\n\nIt also says \"The message should include...\". Oh, and I see there's an `additionalFields` parameter with a `title` set to `\"Today's Weather Update\"`. That's a good touch for clarity in the Gotify notification, giving the message a clear subject. Just like with OpenWeatherMap, the `Gotify` node will also need credentials to connect to the Gotify server. The JSON indicates `gotifyApi` as the credential name, and its actual values (like server URL and token) would be securely managed in n8n's credentials section, not directly in the workflow JSON.\n\nSo, to recap the flow:\n1. The `Cron` node wakes up daily at 9 AM.\n2. It triggers the `OpenWeatherMap` node.\n3. The `OpenWeatherMap` node, using its configured credentials, fetches weather data for Berlin.\n4. The `OpenWeatherMap` node passes this data to the `Gotify` node.\n5. The `Gotify` node then constructs a message, embedding the temperature it extracted from the `OpenWeatherMap` node's data, and sends it out, also using its own set of secure credentials.\n\nThis seems to cover all requirements specified in the prompt and maps perfectly to the provided JSON structure. The data flow is straightforward: trigger -> data fetching -> data sending. No complex transformations are needed in between, just direct data access via expressions." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that receives a webhook, sets a number and string variable, converts the data to XML, and responds to the webhook with the XML content, setting the content-type to \"application\/xml\".\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"jsonToxml\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"XML\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.xml\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [840, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"number\", \"value\": 1}], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"string\", \"value\": \"my text\"}]}, \"options\": {}, \"keepOnlySet\": true}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [660, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {\"responseHeaders\": {\"entries\": [{\"name\": \"content-type\", \"value\": \"application\/xml\"}]}}, \"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.data }}\"}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1020, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"test\", \"options\": {}, \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\"}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [480, 440]}], \"connections\": {\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"XML\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"XML\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, I need to design a workflow that starts with a webhook, defines some data, converts that data to XML, and then sends it back as a webhook response with the correct content type. This sounds like a pretty standard request-response pattern.\n\nFirst things first, to receive a webhook, I'll definitely need a trigger node that can listen for incoming HTTP requests. Looking at the JSON, I see a `Webhook` node, which is perfect for this. So, I'll start by adding a `Webhook` node of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion 1`. This node will act as the entry point for my workflow, waiting for an external system to send data to it. The `path` parameter is set to \"test\", meaning the webhook will be accessible at `\/webhook\/test` relative to the n8n base URL. Also, importantly, the `responseMode` is set to \"responseNode\". This tells the webhook to wait for a subsequent \"Respond to Webhook\" node to send the actual reply, rather than immediately sending an empty 200 OK response. There's also a `webhookId` specified, which is a unique identifier assigned to this particular webhook instance within n8n.\n\nOnce the webhook is received, the prompt says I need to set a number and string variable. The data received by the webhook might not contain these specific variables, or I might need to define them with specific values for the workflow's logic. The `Set` node is exactly what I need for this. So, I'll connect the output of my `Webhook` node to a `Set` node. This `Set` node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion 1`. Its purpose is to create or modify data in the workflow's current item. In this configuration, it's adding two new fields: `number` with a value of `1` and `string` with a value of `\"my text\"`. The `keepOnlySet` parameter is set to `true`, which means any data that came *into* the Set node (e.g., from the webhook payload) will be discarded, and only these newly set values will be passed on. This simplifies the data structure for the next step, ensuring only the data I intend to convert is present.\n\nNow that I have my number and string variables set, the core requirement is to convert this data to XML. For that, n8n has a dedicated `XML` node. So, the output from the `Set` node should go into an `XML` node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.xml` and `typeVersion 1`. The `mode` parameter is crucial here; it's set to `\"jsonToxml\"`. This tells the node to take the JSON data it receives (which currently contains our `number` and `string` fields from the `Set` node) and transform it into an XML string. There aren't any specific options configured, which means it will use its default XML conversion behavior, likely wrapping the fields as elements.\n\nFinally, after the data has been converted to XML, I need to respond to the original webhook with this XML content and make sure the `Content-Type` header is set correctly to \"application\/xml\". The `Respond to Webhook` node is designed for exactly this purpose. So, I'll connect the `XML` node's output to a `Respond to Webhook` node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion 1`. For its configuration, the `respondWith` parameter is set to \"text\", as the output from the XML node is essentially a text string (the XML content). The `responseBody` is set using an expression: `={{ $json.data }}`. This is really important: the `XML` node's output, which is the XML string, is typically placed under a `data` key in the JSON object that it outputs. So, this expression correctly grabs that generated XML string. And, to fulfill the last requirement, under `options`, a `responseHeaders` entry is added. Here, I'm specifying a header named `\"content-type\"` with the value `\"application\/xml\"`. This ensures that when the external system receives the response, it correctly interprets the body as XML data. This completes the workflow, sending the prepared XML back to the caller." } { "prompt": "Generate a n8n workflow JSON for an Airtable node that allows setting the Airtable application and table using URLs with regular expressions for validation.

This node needs to be configured in a very specific way: its 'application' and 'table' settings should accept URLs and validate them using regular expressions.\n\nSo, the very first thing that comes to mind is, \"I need an Airtable node.\" That's the central piece of this puzzle. I'd go into the node selection and pick the Airtable node. Looking at the provided JSON, it's `n8n-nodes-base.airtable` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is the standard, well-established node for interacting with Airtable, so it's a natural choice. I wouldn't expect a different typeVersion to fundamentally change the way these parameters are set up, but it's good to note its version.\n\nOnce I have the Airtable node on the canvas, I'd immediately go into its parameters. The prompt specifically mentions 'application' and 'table' settings. I'd look for those input fields within the Airtable node's configuration.\n\nNow, here's where the special requirements come in:\n1. **Setting with URLs:** The prompt states \"setting the Airtable application and table using URLs.\" This tells me that these input fields shouldn't just be simple text fields for an ID or name. They need to be capable of accepting a URL. In n8n, for certain fields, you can change their input *mode*. The JSON shows `mode: \"url\"` for both 'application' and 'table'. This is exactly what I'd configure \u2013 I'd switch the input method for these fields to URL mode.\n2. **Regular Expression Validation:** This is the more complex part. The prompt provides specific regular expressions for validation:\n * For the application URL: `https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})`\n * For the table URL: `https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})`\n\n n8n has a feature called \"Regular Expression Link\" or similar, indicated by the `__rl: true` property in the JSON. This allows me to associate a regex pattern with a field for validation. So, for the 'application' field, after setting its mode to 'url', I would then enable its regex validation and paste in `https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})`. Similarly, for the 'table' field, I'd do the same, using `https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})`. These regex patterns ensure that any URL entered into these fields conforms to the expected Airtable URL structure, extracting the relevant IDs from the groups. The `value: \"\"` for both just means they start off empty, ready for a user to input their specific Airtable URLs.\n\nBeyond these specific parameters, the Airtable node would also typically require credentials to connect to Airtable. This workflow JSON doesn't specify them, and that's perfectly fine; I'd assume that a user setting this up would select their pre-configured Airtable API key or OAuth credentials from a dropdown menu. That's a separate configuration from how the 'application' and 'table' fields are defined.\n\nSince the request is purely about configuring the input fields of this *single* Airtable node, there's no need for any other nodes like triggers, data processing nodes, or other applications. The `connections: {}` block being empty makes perfect sense because this workflow isn't meant to perform an operation yet, just to define how this specific Airtable node's inputs are constrained. It's a very focused setup.\n\nSo, in summary, it's all about selecting the right node (`n8n-nodes-base.airtable` typeVersion 1), then precisely configuring its `application` and `table` parameters by setting their `mode` to `url` and applying the specified regular expressions using the `__regex` property, which is enabled by `__rl: true`." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON representation of an n8n workflow that triggers on a webhook, retrieves content from a Google Docs document, and responds to the webhook with the document's content.

The core requirement is clear: a workflow that starts with a webhook, grabs content from a Google Docs document, and then sends that content back as a response to the original webhook.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need is a way for an external system to trigger this workflow. Given the prompt specifies \"triggers on a webhook,\" my immediate thought is to use the `Webhook` node. I'd choose the `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, and looking at the provided structure, `typeVersion 2` is what's used, which is a robust choice for handling incoming HTTP requests. I'd place this node right at the beginning of my workflow canvas, usually at the top-left, say position [0, 0].\n\nFor configuring this `Webhook` node, I'd need to define a `path`. This path is what makes the webhook URL unique and accessible. Something descriptive, like \"onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/AutomatingDataWorkflows\" from the example, would be good. More critically for this specific scenario, I'd set its `responseMode` parameter. Since the response isn't immediate and will depend on data retrieved later in the workflow, I'd set `responseMode` to \"responseNode.\" This tells the Webhook node to wait for a subsequent `Respond to Webhook` node to actually send the HTTP response.\n\nNow that the workflow can be triggered, the next step in the requirement is to \"retrieve content from a Google Docs document.\" This clearly calls for a Google Docs integration. So, I'd add a `Google Docs` node. From the JSON, the type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion 2`. This node handles all the necessary interactions with the Google Docs API. I'd connect this `Google Docs` node directly to the `Webhook` node, ensuring that once the webhook fires, the workflow execution flows into the document retrieval step. I'd arrange it visually to the right of the Webhook, perhaps at [220, 0].\n\nInside the `Google Docs` node, I'd configure the `operation`. To retrieve content, \"get\" is the appropriate operation. The most important parameter here would be the `documentURL`, where I'd input the specific URL of the Google Docs document I want to fetch content from. This is where the user would point to their specific document. Of course, to access Google Docs, this node also requires authentication. I'd set up credentials, typically an OAuth2 connection, to allow n8n to securely connect to Google Drive and access the specified document.\n\nFinally, after successfully retrieving the document's content, the workflow needs to \"respond to the webhook with the document's content.\" This is where the `Respond to Webhook` node comes in. The JSON indicates `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion 1.1`. This node is designed specifically for sending the HTTP response back to the original caller of the webhook, completing the request-response cycle. I'd connect the output of the `Google Docs` node to the input of this `Respond to Webhook` node, placing it further to the right on the canvas, say at [440, 0].\n\nFor configuring the `Respond to Webhook` node, I'd specify how the response should be formatted. The prompt implies returning the document content directly, so setting `respondWith` to \"text\" makes sense. Then, for the actual `responseBody`, I need to pull the content that the `Google Docs` node just retrieved. I'd use an expression for this, specifically `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression dynamically takes the value of the `content` field from the data output by the previous `Google Docs` node, ensuring that the fetched document text is sent back.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the functional flow. The overall workflow would be named something descriptive, like \"GetOnboardingFile Automating Data Workflows,\" as seen in the JSON. And it's good practice to tag the workflow for easier organization and searchability within n8n. The specified tags like \"AI Onboarding\", \"Day3\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding\" would be applied to the workflow. The `active` flag would be set to `true` to ensure the workflow is running and listening for webhook triggers. All the other metadata like IDs, timestamps, and version information are internal n8n details that it manages automatically." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with a Form Trigger and a Switch node, connected sequentially, and pre-populated data for the Form Trigger.

The core of it is to create an n8n workflow with a \"Form Trigger\" and a \"Switch node,\" connected sequentially, and crucially, with \"pre-populated data for the Form Trigger.\" Plus, the Form Trigger needs a single field named \"test.\"\n\nMy first thought is always to start with the trigger, as that's what kicks off the workflow. The user explicitly asked for a \"Form Trigger.\" So, naturally, I'd look for an n8n node that handles web forms.\n\nI would choose the **n8n Form Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger` and the JSON specifies `typeVersion: 2`. This node is perfect because it generates a unique URL that users can access to fill out a form, and when they submit it, the workflow gets triggered. It's exactly what's needed to start a workflow based on external input via a form. I generally prefer using the latest stable `typeVersion` for nodes, and `2` is what's provided, so that works.\n\nNow, configuring this Form Trigger node.\n* It needs a `path`. This `path` is a unique identifier that forms part of the URL where the form will be hosted. The JSON provides `d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a`. This looks like a UUID, ensuring uniqueness for the form's endpoint.\n* The `formTitle` is set to \"test\" according to the JSON. This will be the title displayed at the top of the form itself when someone visits the URL.\n* The prompt also specified that the Form Trigger should have a single field named \"test.\" Looking at the JSON, under `formFields`, I see `{\"values\": [{\"fieldLabel\": \"test\"}]}`. This matches perfectly. It means the form will present one input field to the user, labeled \"test.\"\n\nNow, there's a specific requirement in the prompt: \"pre-populated data for the Form Trigger.\" This is a crucial detail for testing and setting up workflows in n8n. The `pinData` section of the JSON addresses this. It specifies:\n`\"n8n Form Trigger\": [{\"json\": {\"name\": \"First item\", \"code\": 1}}, {\"json\": {\"name\": \"Second item\", \"code\": 2}}]`\nThis `pinData` acts as mock input data for the \"n8n Form Trigger\" node when the workflow is executed manually (e.g., in a test run). Instead of waiting for an actual form submission, n8n will simulate two incoming items, each with `name` and `code` fields. This is incredibly useful for building and debugging the rest of the workflow without needing to fill out the form repeatedly. While the form itself has a field named \"test,\" the `pinData` here defines the data that the subsequent nodes will *see* during a test run. This might imply that the actual form submission would convert the \"test\" field's value into something like \"name\" or \"code\" internally, or simply that this test data is generic. For now, I'll proceed with what the `pinData` provides as the effective input for the next node.\n\nNext, the prompt states that a \"Switch node\" should be \"connected sequentially\" after the Form Trigger. So, once the Form Trigger is set up, the logical next step is to add that **Switch** node.\n\nI'd search for the Switch node, which has the type `n8n-nodes-base.switch` and the JSON specifies `typeVersion: 2`. The Switch node is designed to route incoming data items to different branches of the workflow based on conditions. It's a fundamental control flow node.\n\nConnecting these two nodes is straightforward. The `connections` section of the JSON shows:\n`\"n8n Form Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`\nThis means the primary output of the \"n8n Form Trigger\" node, which carries the form submission data (or in this case, the `pinData` during a test run), flows directly into the main input of the \"Switch\" node.\n\nLooking at the parameters for the Switch node in the JSON, it's just an empty `{}`. This means that, as it's currently defined, the Switch node isn't configured with any specific conditions. In a real-world scenario, I would typically configure its \"Value 1\" and \"Conditions\" based on the data coming from the Form Trigger \u2013 for instance, if the incoming `pinData` items have a \"code\" field, I might set a condition like \"code equals 1\" for one branch and \"code equals 2\" for another. Since it's empty here, it would effectively pass all items through its default output branch, or it's a placeholder for future configuration once the incoming data structure is fully understood or requirements for branching are finalized. For this setup, it simply acts as a passthrough at this stage, waiting for conditions to be added." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that simulates a smart factory data generator, including an Interval trigger, a Set node to generate data, and an AMQP Sender node to send the data to a queue named \"berlin_factory_01.\" The data should include machine ID, temperature, uptime, and timestamp.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Smart Factory Data Generator\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"number\": [], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"machine_id.name\", \"value\": \"n8n_cr8\"}, {\"name\": \"temperature_celsius\", \"value\": \"={{Math.floor(Math.random() * 100);}}\"}, {\"name\": \"machine_id.uptime\", \"value\": \"={{Math.floor(Math.random() * 100);}}\"}, {\"name\": \"time_stamp\", \"value\": \"={{Date.now();}}\"}], \"boolean\": []}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Interval\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.interval\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"sink\": \"berlin_factory_01\", \"options\": {\"dataAsObject\": true}}, \"name\": \"AMQP Sender\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.amqp\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [850, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AMQP Sender\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Interval\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this smart factory data generator workflow designed. The goal is to simulate machine data and send it to an AMQP queue.\n\nFirst, I need a way to repeatedly trigger the data generation. Looking at the requirements, an interval-based trigger seems perfect for simulating continuous data flow from a factory. So, I'd start by adding an **Interval** node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.interval` with `typeVersion` 1. It's ideal because it will periodically activate the workflow, allowing for a steady stream of data. For this specific workflow, the parameters are empty, which typically means it will run on its default interval, perhaps every 5 seconds or on every workflow execution based on the environment's configuration.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step is to actually create the data. The prompt specifies machine ID, temperature, uptime, and timestamp. A simple and effective way to construct custom data is using a Set node. So, I'll connect the **Interval** node's output to a **Set** node. This **Set** node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion` 1.\n\nInside this **Set** node, I'll configure the `values` to generate the required data fields.\n* For the `machine_id`, it needs a name. I can set a static string value like \"n8n_cr8\" under a field named `machine_id.name`. This creates a nested structure, which is clean.\n* Next, `temperature_celsius`. This should be dynamic, simulating real-world fluctuations. I'll use an expression for this: `={{Math.floor(Math.random() * 100);}}`. This will generate a random integer between 0 and 99, which is a good stand-in for temperature in Celsius.\n* Similarly, `machine_id.uptime` also needs to be dynamic. I'll use another expression: `={{Math.floor(Math.random() * 100);}}`. This will give a random integer for uptime, again, simulating variability. Notice how I'm nesting this under `machine_id` as well for a consistent data structure.\n* Finally, the `time_stamp`. This needs to reflect when the data was generated. The `={{Date.now();}}` expression is perfect for this, as it will capture the current Unix timestamp in milliseconds.\nThe `options` for this Set node are empty, meaning default behavior will apply, which is fine for just setting values.\n\nWith the data generated, the final step is to send it to the specified AMQP queue named \"berlin_factory_01.\" For this, an **AMQP Sender** node is the clear choice. I'll connect the output of the **Set** node to this **AMQP Sender** node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.amqp` with `typeVersion` 1.\n\nIn the configuration for the **AMQP Sender** node:\n* The `sink` parameter is crucial; this is where I'll specify the queue name, \"berlin_factory_01.\" This tells the node exactly where to send the generated messages.\n* Under `options`, I see `dataAsObject` is set to `true`. This is important because it ensures that the entire JSON object created by the Set node (containing machine ID, temperature, uptime, and timestamp) is sent as a single message to the queue, rather than just raw text.\n* Lastly, there's a `credentials` field for `amqp`. This is where the connection details for the AMQP broker would be configured. The specific values would depend on the AMQP server's address, port, username, and password, but those are sensitive and would be provided by the user when setting up the workflow in their n8n instance.\n\nSo, the flow is: **Interval** triggers -> **Set** generates data -> **AMQP Sender** sends data to the queue.

The core requirement here is to expose an endpoint that acts as a \"health check\" and responds in a very specific way.\n\nMy first thought immediately goes to how this workflow will be triggered. The prompt explicitly says \"exposes a 'health' endpoint via webhook.\" This tells me right away that the entry point for this workflow needs to be a Webhook node. It's the perfect node for listening for incoming HTTP requests and initiating a workflow execution.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding a **Webhook** node. This would be of `type: n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion: 2`. I choose `typeVersion 2` because it's generally the latest and most stable, offering any potential improvements or features over older versions.\n\nOnce I have the Webhook node, I need to configure it to listen on the correct path. The prompt specifies a \"health\" endpoint. So, I'll set the `path` parameter within the Webhook node's settings to `health`. This means the webhook will be accessible at a URL like `[YOUR_N8N_URL]\/webhook\/[WEBHOOK_ID]\/health`.\n\nNext, I need to consider how this webhook will respond. The prompt requires a specific JSON body, a 200 OK status, and a `content-type` header. The Webhook node itself *can* respond, but it's typically best practice, especially when you have a very specific response payload and headers, to use a dedicated response node. The `responseMode` parameter in the Webhook node is crucial here. I'll set `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node, \"Don't send an immediate default response; instead, pass control to a subsequent node in the workflow that will handle the final HTTP response.\" This gives me the flexibility to construct the exact response needed.\n\nNow that the Webhook is set up to listen and defer the response, I need a node that can actually send that specific HTTP response back. The ideal candidate for this is the **Respond to Webhook** node. This node is designed specifically to take the incoming data from a Webhook trigger and send back a custom HTTP response.\n\nSo, I'd add a **Respond to Webhook** node. This node is `type: n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and I see it's `typeVersion: 1.1` in the provided JSON, which is perfectly fine. I'll connect the `main` output of my Webhook node to the `main` input of this Respond to Webhook node. This ensures that when the webhook is triggered, the execution flow moves directly to this response node.\n\nWith the Respond to Webhook node in place, I can configure its parameters to meet the exact requirements.\nFirst, the prompt asks for a JSON body. So, for the `respondWith` parameter, I'll select `json`. This automatically handles setting the correct base `Content-Type` header for JSON, though we'll explicitly define it later just to be sure.\n\nThen, for the `responseBody` parameter, I'll input the exact JSON string required: `{\"status\": \"ok\"}`. This ensures the body of the response matches the specification.\n\nNext, I need to set the HTTP status code. The prompt specifies \"200 OK status\". Within the `options` parameter for the Respond to Webhook node, there's a `responseCode` field. I'll set that to `200`.\n\nFinally, and this is important, the prompt explicitly states: \"Make sure to include the content-type header in the response.\" Even though selecting `json` for `respondWith` often implies `application\/json`, it's good practice and robust to explicitly define it. So, within the `options` again, under `responseHeaders`, I'll add a new entry. The `name` of the header will be `content-type` (lowercase, as per HTTP standard), and its `value` will be `application\/json`. This ensures the client calling the endpoint knows exactly what type of content to expect.\n\nThat completes the configuration. The Webhook node listens, passes control, and the Respond to Webhook node crafts and sends the precise response back. This creates a simple, efficient, and clear workflow for a health check endpoint." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that: triggers manually, then creates a Mattermost channel, adds a user to that channel, and finally sends a welcome message to the channel.

Let's break this down based on the provided JSON.\n\nFirst off, I need a way to kick off this whole process. The prompt says \"triggers manually,\" so a manual trigger node is exactly what I'd look for. Looking at the JSON, I see `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This is perfect because it allows the user to simply click \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n interface to start it. It doesn't need any complex configuration, just its presence signals a user-initiated start. If I were thinking about `typeVersion` differences, often newer versions might have minor UI tweaks or internal optimizations, but for a simple manual trigger, `typeVersion 1` is completely functional.\n\nNext, the prompt requires creating a Mattermost channel. To interact with Mattermost, I'll definitely need a Mattermost node. I see a node named \"Mattermost\" of type `n8n-nodes-base.mattermost` with `typeVersion 1`. This is the core node for Mattermost operations. This node is connected directly from the `On clicking 'execute'` node, which makes sense as it's the first action after the trigger.\n\nFor configuring this Mattermost node to create a channel, I'd set the `resource` to \"channel\". The `displayName` parameter is crucial here; it's how I'd give the channel a name, like \"Docs\" in this case. I also see a `teamId` which tells Mattermost *which* team the channel should be created in. An actual team ID would be provided here. And, of course, Mattermost requires credentials to connect to the API, so `mattermostApi` credentials would be selected. `typeVersion 1` for the Mattermost node usually means it supports common operations like creating channels, sending messages, and user management. A newer version might offer more granular control or support newer Mattermost API features, but for basic channel creation, this works fine.\n\nAfter creating the channel, the prompt asks to \"add a user to that channel.\" This is another Mattermost operation, so I'd add another `n8n-nodes-base.mattermost` node. The JSON shows \"Mattermost1\", also `typeVersion 1`. This node is connected from the \"Mattermost\" (channel creation) node, which is essential because I need the newly created channel's ID to add a user to it.\n\nFor this \"Mattermost1\" node, the `resource` is still \"channel\", but the `operation` is now \"addUser\". To specify *which* user to add, there's a `userId` parameter, where a specific user's ID would be provided. The most critical part here, as per the prompt, is using the channel ID from the previous step. The JSON correctly shows `channelId: \"={{$node[\\\"Mattermost\\\"].json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\"`. This is a fantastic example of n8n's expression capabilities: it dynamically pulls the `id` field from the JSON output of the *previous* \"Mattermost\" node (the one that created the channel). This ensures the user is added to the *correct* new channel. Credentials, `mattermostApi`, would be reused.\n\nFinally, the prompt states \"send a welcome message to the channel.\" Again, this is a Mattermost interaction, so another `n8n-nodes-base.mattermost` node is needed. The JSON shows \"Mattermost2\", again `typeVersion 1`, connected from \"Mattermost1\".\n\nFor this \"Mattermost2\" node, the `resource` is not explicitly set to \"channel\" or \"post\" in the JSON, but based on the parameters like `message` and `channelId`, it implicitly performs a message posting operation. The `message` parameter holds the actual text of the welcome message, like \"Hey! Welcome to the channel!\". Crucially, just like adding the user, I need to send the message to the *newly created channel*. So, the `channelId` parameter again uses the expression `={{$node[\\\"Mattermost\\\"].json[\\\"id\\\"]}}` to retrieve the ID from the very first Mattermost node that created the channel. This ensures the welcome message lands in the correct place. There's also an `attachments` array and `otherOptions` object, which suggests further customization like adding files or more complex post formatting is possible, though not used here. Credentials, `mattermostApi`, are reused one last time.\n\nThe connections make perfect sense: `On clicking 'execute'` triggers the first \"Mattermost\" node (create channel), its success triggers \"Mattermost1\" (add user), and its success triggers \"Mattermost2\" (send message). This sequential flow ensures each step has the necessary information from the previous one." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers manually, uses an IF node to check if the input \"a\" equals 3, and then outputs to a Debug Helper, with sample input data \"a\" being 1 and 2.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"conditions\": {\"options\": {\"caseSensitive\": true, \"leftValue\": \"\", \"typeValidation\": \"strict\", \"version\": 2}, \"conditions\": [{\"id\": \"6f0cf983-824b-4339-a5de-6b374a23b4b0\", \"leftValue\": \"={{ $json.a }}\", \"rightValue\": 3, \"operator\": {\"type\": \"number\", \"operation\": \"equals\"}}], \"combinator\": \"and\"}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"If\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.if\", \"typeVersion\": 2.2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"category\": \"randomData\"}, \"name\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [580, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"If\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}], [{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"If\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed.\n\nFirst things first, the prompt explicitly states \"triggers manually.\" This immediately tells me I need a trigger node that I can initiate myself. Looking at the available nodes, the most suitable one for this is the `Manual Trigger` node. So, I'll start by adding a `Manual Trigger` node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is perfect because it allows me to execute the workflow whenever I click the \"Test workflow\" button in the n8n UI, aligning perfectly with the manual trigger requirement.\n\nNow, the prompt also mentions \"sample input data 'a' being 1 and 2.\" This is where the `Manual Trigger` node gets really handy. I can inject this sample data directly into its `pinData` property. So, for the `Manual Trigger` node, I'll configure its `pinData` to be `[{\"a\": 1}, {\"a\": 2}]`. This means when I run the workflow, two separate executions will happen, one with `{\"a\": 1}` as input and another with `{\"a\": 2}`. This is a very clean way to provide test data without needing an external source.\n\nNext, the workflow needs to \"use an IF node to check if the input 'a' equals 3.\" This is a clear indicator that the next node in the sequence should be an `If` node. I'll connect the `main` output of my `Manual Trigger` node to the `main` input of this new `If` node. For the `If` node, I'll choose `n8n-nodes-base.if` with `typeVersion 2.2`.\n\nConfiguring this `If` node is crucial. The condition is \"if the input 'a' equals 3.\" So, within the `conditions` parameter, I'll add a single condition.\n* For the `leftValue`, I need to reference the `a` property from the incoming data. I'll use an expression for this: `={{ $json.a }}`. This tells the node to look for the value of `a` in the current item's JSON data.\n* The `operator` needs to be set to `equals`, and since we're comparing numbers, I'll ensure the `type` for the operator is `number`.\n* Finally, the `rightValue` will be `3`.\n* The `combinator` can remain `and` as there's only one condition, it doesn't really affect the logic here. I'll also ensure `caseSensitive` is `true` and `typeValidation` is `strict` for robust comparison, which are typically good defaults.\n\nFinally, the prompt states \"and then outputs to a Debug Helper.\" This means that after the `If` node evaluates the condition, the data should flow into a `Debug Helper` node so we can inspect the results. So, I'll add a `DebugHelper` node. This node is `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper` with `typeVersion 1`. Its purpose is simply to log the incoming data, which is perfect for debugging and verifying our workflow's behavior.\n\nNow, how do the `If` node and `DebugHelper` connect? An `If` node typically has two outputs: one for `true` (when the condition is met) and one for `false` (when it's not). Since the prompt just says \"outputs to a Debug Helper\" and doesn't specify *only* on true or false, it's safest and most informative to connect *both* the `true` output and the `false` output of the `If` node to the `main` input of the `DebugHelper` node. This way, whether 'a' is 3 or not, the data will still pass through to the Debug Helper, allowing us to observe the flow for both cases. I'll leave its default parameters like `category: \"randomData\"` and `alwaysOutputData: true` as they don't impact the core logic of this simple setup. The `DebugHelper` is there to show us what data arrived, regardless of where it came from." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object representing a n8n workflow named \"email extractor in airtable,\" including its ID, creation\/update timestamps, status, and basic structure (empty nodes\/connections). The workflow is currently inactive and uses execution order \"v1\".\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"email extractor in airtable\", \"nodes\": [], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so I'm looking at this request to build an n8n workflow named \"email extractor in airtable.\" The provided JSON is a blueprint, or rather, an empty canvas for this workflow. It tells me the name, its ID, creation timestamps, and that it's currently inactive, with no nodes or connections yet. This gives me a blank slate to design how this \"email extractor\" would function.\n\nThe goal is to extract emails and put them into Airtable. This immediately tells me I'll need a trigger, a way to get the emails, a way to process them for extraction, and then a way to write them to Airtable.\n\nI think I'll start with a `Cron` node. This is a versatile trigger that allows me to define a schedule for the workflow to run. An \"email extractor\" typically implies checking periodically, rather than being triggered by an instantaneous event like a new email arriving in real-time, although that's also an option. For periodic checks, `Cron` is perfect. So, my first node will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.cron` with `typeVersion: 1`. I would configure it to run at a specific interval, for example, `Every X Hours` or `Every X Minutes`, depending on how frequently I want to check for new emails. Let's say, hourly for now, setting `mode` to `Every X`, `value` to `1`, and `unit` to `hour`.\n\nAfter the `Cron` node fires, the next logical step is to actually *read* the emails. Assuming these emails are coming from a common service, the `Gmail` node is a good choice for many users. Alternatively, an `EmailReadImap` node would be suitable for more generic IMAP accounts. For this design, I'll go with `Gmail`.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `Cron` node to a `Gmail` node. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.gmail` and I'll use `typeVersion: 2`, which is usually the recommended stable version. Inside this node, I'd set the `operation` to `Get All` messages and the `resource` to `Message`. This is where I'd also define the `searchCriteria` to filter which emails to fetch. For an extractor, it's common to only process unread emails to avoid reprocessing the same ones. So, I would add a `searchCriteria` like `is:unread` to only fetch new emails. I might also add `in:inbox` to limit it to the primary inbox. There would also be a Gmail credential configured here to authenticate with the user's Gmail account, but I wouldn't specify the actual credential.\n\nOnce the `Gmail` node retrieves the emails, the next challenge is to *extract* specific email addresses from their content. This typically requires custom logic, often using regular expressions. This makes the `Function` node an ideal candidate.\n\nI would connect the `Gmail` node to a `Function` node. This node's type would be `n8n-nodes-base.function`, and I'd stick with `typeVersion: 1`. Inside this node, I'd write JavaScript code that iterates through each email item received from the `Gmail` node. For each email, I'd access its `text` or `html` body, and perhaps even the subject line, to scan for email address patterns using a regular expression. For instance, a regex like `\/[\\w.-]+@([\\w-]+\\.)+[\\w-]{2,4}\/g` could be used to find email addresses. The function would then transform the data, outputting a new item for each email address successfully extracted, perhaps including the source email's subject or sender as additional context if that's useful for Airtable. If an email contains multiple addresses, the function would create a separate output item for each one to ensure clean, one-to-one mapping for the next step.\n\nFinally, with the extracted email addresses prepared as individual items, the last step is to send them to Airtable.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `Function` node to an `Airtable` node. The type for this node would be `n8n-nodes-base.airtable`, and I'd use `typeVersion: 1`. This node is designed to interact directly with Airtable.\n\nFor the `Airtable` node's configuration, I'd set the `operation` to `Create` because we want to add new records. The `resource` would be `Record`. Critically, I'd need to provide the `baseId` and `tableId`, which identify the specific Airtable base and table where these extracted emails should be stored. These are unique identifiers from the user's Airtable account. A corresponding Airtable API Key credential would also be configured to authorize this action. Within the node's settings, under the `Fields` section, I would map the data from the `Function` node's output to the corresponding fields in my Airtable table. For example, if the `Function` node outputs the extracted email address as `extractedEmail`, and my Airtable table has a field named \"Email\", I would map `{{ $json.extractedEmail }}` to that \"Email\" field. I might also map other contextual data like the original email's subject or sender if those were carried through. This way, each extracted email address becomes a new row in the specified Airtable table.\n\nThis workflow structure would effectively automate the process of periodically scanning an email account for messages, extracting specific email addresses from their content, and then automatically logging those extracted addresses into an Airtable database." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, gets an SSL certificate for \"n8n.io\", and sends a Telegram message if the certificate is expired.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get SSL Certificate\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [240, 290]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"item.domain = \\\"n8n.io\\\";\\nreturn item;\"}, \"name\": \"Create Domain Item\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.functionItem\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 290]}, {\"parameters\": {\"tool\": \"getDomainCertificate\", \"group\": \"internet\", \"domain\": \"= {{$node[\\\"Create Domain Item\\\"].json[\\\"domain\\\"]}}\", \"additionalOptions\": {}}, \"name\": \"Get SSL Certificate\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.uproc\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 290]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"=The certificate of the domain {{$node[\\\"Create Domain Item\\\"].json[\\\"domain\\\"]}} has expired!\", \"chatId\": \"-1415703867\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Send Expired Alarm\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegram\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1070, 270]}, {\"parameters\": {\"conditions\": {\"string\": [{\"value1\": \"={{$node[\\\"Get SSL Certificate\\\"].json[\\\"message\\\"][\\\"valid\\\"]+\\\"\\\"}}\", \"value2\": \"false\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Certificate has expired?\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.if\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [840, 290]}], \"connections\": {\"Create Domain Item\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Get SSL Certificate\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Get SSL Certificate\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Certificate has expired?\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Create Domain Item\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Certificate has expired?\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Send Expired Alarm\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow to get an SSL certificate and check its expiration.\n\nFirst, I need a way to kick off this workflow. The prompt specifies a \"manually triggers\" workflow. So, the most straightforward node for that is a manual trigger. I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node with `typeVersion 1`. This will allow me to click a button in the n8n UI to execute the workflow whenever I need it. It's a simple start, but essential for defining how the workflow begins.\n\nNext, the workflow needs to know which domain to check for the SSL certificate. The prompt specifically mentions \"n8n.io\". I could hardcode this directly into the SSL certificate node, but it's often good practice to define such parameters clearly. A `Function Item` node is perfect for this. I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.functionItem` node, also `typeVersion 1`, and connect it directly from the `manualTrigger` node. Inside this `Function Item` node, I'll set a new property on the incoming item, let's call it `domain`, and assign the value \"n8n.io\" to it. The function code would look something like `item.domain = \"n8n.io\"; return item;`. This makes the domain name explicit and available for subsequent nodes to reference.\n\nNow that I have the domain, the core task is to actually retrieve the SSL certificate information. For this, I need a node that can interact with external services to get domain certificate details. Looking at the available nodes, a `uproc` node, specifically configured to use the `getDomainCertificate` tool from the `internet` group, seems like a fitting choice. I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.uproc` node with `typeVersion 1`. I'll connect this node from the `Function Item` node. For its `domain` parameter, I'll reference the domain value I just created in the previous `Function Item` node using an expression: `={{$node[\"Create Domain Item\"].json[\"domain\"]}}`. This ensures the correct domain \"n8n.io\" is passed to the certificate retrieval tool. It will also need credentials for the `uprocApi`, which would be set up separately in n8n to connect to the uProc service.\n\nAfter getting the certificate information, the crucial next step is to determine if it's expired. This requires a conditional check. An `IF` node is ideal for this. I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.if` node with `typeVersion 1`. This node will be connected to the main output of the `Get SSL Certificate` node. The condition needs to check the validity status returned by the `uproc` node. Based on the JSON, the `uproc` node's output seems to contain a `valid` field within a `message` object. So, I'll configure a string condition that checks if `{{$node[\"Get SSL Certificate\"].json[\"message\"][\"valid\"]+\"\"}}` is equal to `\"false\"`. The `+\"\"` is a common trick to ensure the boolean `false` is explicitly converted to a string for comparison. If the certificate is not valid, the workflow will proceed down the true branch of this `IF` node.\n\nFinally, if the certificate has indeed expired, I need to send an alert. The prompt specifies sending a Telegram message. So, a `telegram` node is the perfect fit. I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.telegram` node, also `typeVersion 1`. This node will be connected from the `true` output of the `Certificate has expired?` `IF` node. For the message `text`, I want to make it informative, so I'll include the domain name. An expression like `=The certificate of the domain {{$node[\"Create Domain Item\"].json[\"domain\"]}} has expired!` would work well, again pulling the domain from the `Create Domain Item` node. The `chatId` would be configured to a specific Telegram chat or group ID where the alerts should be sent, and `telegramApi` credentials would be provided separately to link to the Telegram bot. This completes the logic: if the certificate check returns `false` for validity, a Telegram message is sent." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a manual trigger, followed by two Set nodes connected sequentially.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"ff739753-9d6e-46a7-94d3-25bd03dd4973\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, looking at this, the user wants a straightforward workflow: a manual trigger, then two 'Set' nodes in a sequence. This is a common pattern for testing or for simple data manipulation before more complex operations.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to initiate the execution. Given the prompt specifies a \"manual trigger,\" the most appropriate node for this is clearly the `manualTrigger` node. So, I'd begin by adding a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is perfect because it allows the user to manually kick off the workflow from the n8n editor, which is exactly what \"manual trigger\" implies. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters for its basic function; it just waits for a click. Its name \"On clicking 'execute'\" is descriptive and tells anyone looking at the workflow exactly how it starts. I'd position it somewhere logical, like at the beginning of the flow, perhaps around `[600, 580]` on the canvas.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the prompt states it should be \"followed by two Set nodes connected sequentially.\" The `Set` node, of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` (with `typeVersion 1`), is an excellent choice here. Its primary purpose is to add, rename, or remove data from the incoming items. It's super versatile for manipulating the data structure as it flows through the workflow. Since the prompt doesn't specify *what* data to set, the nodes themselves will likely remain with their default, empty `parameters.options` configuration, meaning they won't actually change the data unless properties are added. But they still serve as placeholders for data manipulation steps.\n\nSo, after the manual trigger, I'd connect the first `Set` node. I'll name it simply \"Set\" to reflect its function. This connection is a standard `main` connection, meaning the data (even if it's just an empty item from the trigger) will flow directly from \"On clicking 'execute'\" to \"Set\". So, the connection from `On clicking 'execute'`'s `main` output should lead to the `Set` node's `main` input. Visually, I'd place it to the right of the trigger, maybe at `[820, 580]`, maintaining a clean horizontal flow.\n\nFollowing the prompt's instruction for \"two Set nodes connected sequentially,\" the next logical step is to add another `Set` node immediately after the first one. This will also be of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion 1`. I'll call this one \"Set1\" to distinguish it from the first. It will also have no specific parameters configured unless the user wanted to add actual data manipulation logic later. The connection here will be from the output of the first \"Set\" node to the input of this \"Set1\" node. Again, it's a `main` connection, ensuring the data from the first `Set` node (which at this point is still just the initial item, potentially modified by the first Set if it had configurations) passes along to the second `Set` node. I'd position this further to the right, perhaps at `[1040, 580]`, continuing the linear layout.\n\nThat covers all the requirements: a manual trigger, followed by two Set nodes connected sequentially. The `pinData` section just confirms that the `On clicking 'execute'` trigger is indeed set to `start: true`, meaning it's the beginning of the workflow path, which is typical for trigger nodes. The `active: false` simply means the workflow isn't deployed and running in production yet, which is the default state for a newly created workflow." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that creates a table named `test` in QuestDB, sets the values \"id\" (number) and \"name\" (string, \"Tanay\"), and then inserts the values into the created table.

I need to create something that first sets up a table in QuestDB, then prepares some data, and finally inserts that data.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick off this whole process. Looking at the user's request, they specifically asked for a manual trigger. So, I'll start with an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. This is perfect because it allows me to manually initiate the workflow execution, which is great for testing and for scenarios where an explicit start is desired. This one is `typeVersion 1`, which is the standard for a basic manual trigger. I won't need to configure any parameters here; its sole purpose is to be the starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions creating a table named `test` in QuestDB. So, naturally, the very next step after the trigger should be a QuestDB node to handle that. I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.questDb` node, also `typeVersion 1`. This node is specifically designed to interact with QuestDB, allowing us to run queries or perform various database operations. For the operation, I'll set it to `executeQuery` because I need to run a SQL command to create the table. The `query` parameter will be `CREATE TABLE test (id INT, name STRING);`. This directly fulfills the requirement to create the `test` table with an `id` column of type integer and a `name` column of type string. I'll need to make sure this QuestDB node has its credentials configured \u2013 a QuestDB credential would be selected here to ensure it can connect to the database. I'll connect the output of the `manualTrigger` node to the input of this `QuestDB` node. This ensures that the table creation happens right after the workflow is manually triggered. Also, it's set to `alwaysOutputData: true`, which is generally a good practice for database operations if you want to ensure the node always passes something along, even if it's just a success message or an empty item.\n\nAfter the table is created, the next step is to prepare the data we want to insert. The prompt specifies setting the values \"id\" (number) and \"name\" (string, \"Tanay\"). A `Set` node is ideal for this. It allows me to explicitly define new fields and their values on the incoming data. So, I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, `typeVersion 1`. I'll connect the output of the `QuestDB` (create table) node to the input of this `Set` node. This ensures that the data setting only occurs *after* the table has been successfully created. In its parameters, under `values`, I'll define two fields:\n* One for `id`, and since the prompt specifies it's a number, I'll add a new number field named `id`. I won't put a static value here, as the JSON indicates it's just `id` without a pre-set value, implying it might be dynamic or handled in a later step if not explicitly set here.\n* The second will be a string field named `name`, and its value will be set to `\"Tanay\"`, directly as requested.\nThis `Set` node essentially creates an item with these `id` and `name` properties that can then be passed to the next step for insertion.\n\nFinally, with the table created and the values prepared, the last step is to insert those values into the `test` table. This means I'll need another QuestDB node. I'll add `n8n-nodes-base.questDb` again, let's call it `QuestDB1` to distinguish it, and it will also be `typeVersion 1`. I'll connect the output of the `Set` node to the input of this `QuestDB1` node. For this node, the operation won't be `executeQuery` this time; it will be an `insert` operation, which is implicit when you specify `table` and `columns` in the way the JSON does. I'll configure its `table` parameter to `\"test\"`, specifying which table we're targeting. And importantly, the `columns` parameter will be set to `\"id, name\"`. This tells QuestDB which columns from the incoming data (prepared by the `Set` node) correspond to the table columns for insertion. This node will also require QuestDB credentials, just like the first one, to connect and perform the insert. This completes the workflow, covering all the requirements from the user prompt: creating the table, setting the values, and inserting them." } { "prompt": "Create a JSON object representing an n8n workflow named \"Node versions\" with five nodes, including Manual Trigger, Function, and three different versions of the Edit Fields (Set) node.

The prompt specifies \"Node versions\", so I'll set that right away. This name clearly indicates the purpose of this particular workflow \u2013 it's about showcasing how different node versions appear and might behave.\n\nNow, onto the nodes themselves. I always start with a trigger. A workflow has to begin somewhere.\n* **The Trigger Node:** For a demonstration workflow like this, where I want to manually initiate it to observe the nodes, a `Manual Trigger` is the most suitable choice. It's simple, direct, and perfect for testing or showcasing without needing an external event. So, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. As for its `typeVersion`, `1` is very common and stable for this node, and it typically doesn't have many breaking changes across versions. I'll give it a descriptive name like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" so it's clear what it does on the canvas. For positioning, let's put it at `[460, 460]` \u2013 a good central starting point on the canvas.\n\nNext, the core of this workflow seems to be demonstrating different versions of the `Edit Fields (Set)` node. The prompt specifically asks for three distinct versions. This is where it gets interesting, as `typeVersion` plays a crucial role in how a node behaves and what properties it exposes.\n\n* **The \"Latest\" Edit Fields Node:** I'll add an `Edit Fields (Set)` node. This node is fantastic for transforming or adding data to the workflow's items. It's a fundamental data manipulation node. For this one, I want to explicitly define a relatively new `typeVersion` to signify it as the 'latest' or a recent one. Looking at the provided JSON, `typeVersion: 3.4` is specified, which is a good example of a recent iteration. So, this node will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, with `typeVersion 3.4`. I'll name it \"Edit Fields (latest)\" to make its purpose clear. I'll place it slightly to the right of the trigger, maybe at `[640, 460]`.\n\n* **The \"Old\" Edit Fields Node:** To truly showcase version differences, I need an older version of the `Edit Fields (Set)` node. This allows for direct comparison. Perhaps some features were different, or certain properties weren't available in older versions. The provided JSON uses `typeVersion: 2` for this purpose. So, I'll add another node of type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, but this time with `typeVersion 2`. I'll name it \"Edit Fields (old)\". I'll place it further along the canvas, at `[800, 460]`, to keep the nodes somewhat in a line.\n\n* **The \"No TypeVersion\" Edit Fields Node:** This is a crucial one for understanding n8n's default behavior. What happens if you don't explicitly set a `typeVersion`? n8n typically defaults to the latest stable or recommended version if `typeVersion` is omitted from the node definition. This is an important concept to demonstrate. So, I'll add a third `Edit Fields (Set)` node, `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and I will *omit* the `typeVersion` property entirely from its definition, just as the JSON suggests. I'll name it \"Edit Fields (no typeVersion)\" to highlight this specific characteristic. I'll place this one even further to the right, at `[1120, 460]`. This setup visually represents the three different version approaches for the Set node.\n\nFinally, the prompt also asks for a `Function` node.\n* **The Function Node:** A `Function` node is a powerful tool in n8n. It allows users to write custom JavaScript code to perform highly specific data transformations, complex conditional logic, or interact with data in ways that might not be covered by other standard nodes. Even in a demonstration workflow, including a `Function` node shows a common and essential component for any advanced workflow logic. It signifies the ability to extend functionality beyond predefined nodes. I'll add it, with type `n8n-nodes-base.function` and `typeVersion 1`. For its name, simply \"Function\" is perfectly adequate. I'll position it somewhere in the middle of the other nodes, perhaps at `[960, 460]`.\n\nNow, looking at the `connections` object in the provided JSON, it's empty. This tells me that the primary purpose of this workflow is indeed to *showcase* these nodes and their `typeVersion` properties, rather than to build a data-processing pipeline. If it were a functional workflow, I would be meticulously connecting the output of the trigger to the inputs of the subsequent nodes, determining the flow of data. But for a demonstration of nodes and their versions, having them laid out on the canvas, each with its unique definition, is perfectly fine. It allows someone to inspect each node's configuration individually. No connections are needed for this specific demonstration goal.\n\nAnd that completes the thought process for building this specific workflow based on the given requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with an SSE Trigger node that listens to data from the URL \"https:\/\/n8n.io\". Position the node at x:850, y:420.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/n8n.io\"}, \"name\": \"SSE Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.sseTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [850, 420]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this n8n workflow put together. The prompt is quite specific, asking for an SSE Trigger node listening to data from a particular URL, and even giving us its exact position. This makes the initial setup fairly straightforward.\n\nMy first thought, and really, the only thought for this particular workflow, is to begin with the **SSE Trigger** node. The user prompt explicitly asks for it, and the provided JSON confirms that it's the only node in this workflow. This node, of type `n8n-nodes-base.sseTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`, is perfectly suited for the task because its core purpose is to act as a trigger that initiates a workflow whenever new Server-Sent Events (SSE) are received from a specified URL. It's designed to constantly listen for these events, which is exactly what \"listening to data from the URL\" implies.\n\nNow, once I've decided on the node, I need to think about its configuration, based on the `parameters` block in the JSON. The JSON shows `{\"url\": \"https:\/\/n8n.io\"}`. This is a critical piece of information for the SSE Trigger node. It tells us *where* the node should listen for Server-Sent Events. So, I would configure the 'URL' parameter of the SSE Trigger node with the value `https:\/\/n8n.io`. This sets up the listener to connect to that specific endpoint and await any incoming SSE data. Without this URL, the node wouldn't know where to connect.\n\nFinally, the JSON also provides the `position: [850, 420]`. While not affecting the functionality, this is important for the visual layout of the workflow on the canvas. I would place the SSE Trigger node at these coordinates, making sure it aligns with the requested design specifications.\n\nGiven the `connections` object is empty in the JSON, it means this workflow currently consists solely of this trigger. It will receive SSE data, and then the workflow would stop here. If there were subsequent processing steps, we would add nodes connected to the output of this SSE Trigger, perhaps to log the data, transform it, or send it somewhere else, but for now, this single node fulfills the request exactly as specified." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that fetches a random cocktail recipe from \"https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php\", converts the JSON response to binary data, and writes it to a file named \"cocktail.json\".

The goal here is to fetch a random cocktail recipe, transform that recipe's JSON into binary data, and then save it to a file. And, crucially, it needs to kick off with a manual trigger.\n\nSo, thinking about where to begin, the prompt explicitly states \"The workflow should start with a manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me the very first node I need is a trigger that can be executed on demand. Looking at the provided JSON, it confirms my initial thought: the `On clicking 'execute'` node. This is of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is absolutely perfect for the requirement because it simply provides a starting point for the workflow when a user manually initiates it, which is exactly what's needed. There are no parameters to configure for this particular trigger, it just serves as the initial spark.\n\nNow that we have our starting point, the next logical step, following the prompt, is to \"fetch a random cocktail recipe from 'https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php'\". To do this, we'll need a node that can make an HTTP request to an external API. The `HTTP Request` node is the standard tool for this in n8n. In the JSON, I see `HTTP Request` of type `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` with `typeVersion 1`. This is precisely what's needed. I'd connect the `On clicking 'execute'` node's `main` output to this `HTTP Request` node's `main` input, ensuring that once the workflow is triggered, the request is made.\n\nFor the configuration of this `HTTP Request` node, the most important parameter is the `url`. The prompt provides it directly: \"https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php\". So, that URL would be placed directly into the `url` field of this node. No special options seem necessary for a simple GET request to this endpoint; the default settings for the request method (GET) and response handling (JSON parsing) should suffice for fetching the recipe.\n\nOkay, so we've triggered the workflow and fetched the JSON data from the cocktail API. The prompt then specifies \"converts the JSON response to binary data\". This is a key step. The data we get from the HTTP Request node will be standard JSON, but to write it directly to a file as a raw data stream, it often helps to explicitly convert it to binary. For this, n8n has a dedicated node: `Move Binary Data`. The JSON shows `Move Binary Data` of type `n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is ideal for manipulating binary data within a workflow. I'd connect the `HTTP Request` node's `main` output to the `Move Binary Data` node's `main` input.\n\nLooking at its parameters, the `mode` parameter is crucial here. To convert incoming JSON data into binary, the `mode` should be set to `jsonToBinary`. This will take the structured JSON output from the previous `HTTP Request` node and transform it into a binary data item, suitable for saving directly to a file. There are no other complex options needed for this specific conversion.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"and writes it to a file named 'cocktail.json'\". Now that we have our data in binary format, we need a way to save it. The `Write Binary File` node is designed exactly for this purpose. The JSON specifies `Write Binary File` of type `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile` with `typeVersion 1`. This is the perfect choice for the last step. I'd connect the `Move Binary Data` node's `main` output to the `Write Binary File` node's `main` input, ensuring the converted binary data is passed along.\n\nFor its configuration, the primary parameter for the `Write Binary File` node is `fileName`. The prompt is very specific about this: \"cocktail.json\". So, that string would be entered into the `fileName` field. This ensures that the binary data representing the cocktail recipe will be saved as a file named `cocktail.json` in the location where n8n is configured to write files, or potentially a temporary directory if not explicitly configured otherwise. And that completes the workflow based on the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, uses an HTTP Request node to fetch data from a Kommo API lead endpoint, authenticating with OAuth2.

And it needs a particular name.\n\nSo, the very first thing I'd do is set up the workflow's name. The prompt specifies \"[Henry Santos] - Insere lead na kommo via API\". This is important for organization and easy identification later.\n\nNow, onto the nodes themselves.\n\n**Step 1: The Trigger Node**\n\nThe prompt explicitly says \"when manually triggered\". This immediately tells me I need a trigger node that allows for manual execution.\n\n* **Node Type:** The perfect fit for this is the `Manual Trigger` node. I'd choose `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`.\n* **Why this node?** It's designed precisely for scenarios where you want to initiate a workflow by clicking a button in the n8n interface, like the \"Test workflow\" button, or manually activating it. It doesn't require any complex configuration, as its sole purpose is to provide that initial pulse to start the workflow.\n* **Configuration:** There are no specific parameters to configure for this node; it simply acts as the starting point. I'd probably give it a default name like \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", which is exactly what's shown in the provided JSON.\n\n**Step 2: The Action Node - Fetching Data**\n\nAfter the workflow is triggered, the next logical step is to actually fetch the data from the Kommo API. This requires making an HTTP request.\n\n* **Node Type:** For any interaction with an external API via HTTP, the `HTTP Request` node is the go-to. I would select `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`. The JSON specifies `typeVersion 4.1`, which indicates a relatively recent and stable version of this node with various enhancements.\n* **Connecting it:** This `HTTP Request` node needs to execute *after* the manual trigger. So, I would connect the output of the \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" node directly to the input of this new `HTTP Request` node. This ensures that the HTTP call only happens when the workflow is manually started.\n* **Configuration - Naming:** I'd give this node a descriptive name that reflects its purpose. \"busca_lead\" (fetch lead) is a good, clear name, as seen in the JSON.\n* **Configuration - URL:** The prompt mentions fetching data from a \"Kommo API lead endpoint\". The JSON provides a specific URL: `https:\/\/veronicaburgel15.kommo.com\/api\/v4\/leads\/6484858`. This looks like a direct API call to retrieve a specific lead by its ID. I would input this exact URL into the `URL` field of the HTTP Request node. This tells the node *where* to send its request.\n* **Configuration - Authentication:** This is a crucial part, as the prompt specifies \"authenticating with OAuth2\".\n * First, I'd set the `Authentication` parameter to `Generic Credential Type`.\n * Then, for `Generic Auth Type`, I would select `OAuth2 API`. This is important because it leverages n8n's secure credential management for OAuth2 flows, handling token generation and refreshing automatically. It's much better than embedding tokens directly in the workflow.\n * Finally, under the `Credentials` section, I would select the pre-configured OAuth2 credential for Kommo. The JSON indicates that an existing credential named \"[Henry Santos] - Kommo ouath 2\" with a specific ID is being used. This credential would have been set up separately in n8n, containing all the necessary OAuth2 client ID, client secret, authorization URL, token URL, and scope to interact with Kommo's API securely. This abstract way of referencing credentials is a key security feature of n8n.\n* **Configuration - Method and Options:** Since the goal is to \"fetch data\" and the URL points to a specific resource, the default HTTP method would be `GET`. The JSON doesn't specify a method, confirming it relies on the default. Also, the `options` field is empty, meaning no additional headers, query parameters, or request body are being sent with this simple GET request to retrieve the lead data. This is typically what you'd expect for a basic data retrieval operation.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it. The workflow is designed to start manually, then make an authenticated API call to get lead data from Kommo. There are no further nodes required to meet the current prompt's requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object describing an n8n workflow with a single Webhook node configured to listen for POST requests on the \"udiasecurity\" path and authenticated using JWT, including details like creation and update timestamps, IDs, and credentials.

The request is pretty clear: a single Webhook node, listening for POST requests on a specific path, and secured with JWT. It also needs to be inactive and have a particular name.\n\nFirst things first, for any workflow that needs to be triggered by an external event \u2013 like an incoming HTTP request \u2013 the absolute natural choice is always going to be a **Webhook node**. It's designed precisely for that purpose. So, I'll definitely add a Webhook node as my starting point. Looking at the provided structure, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and it's using `typeVersion 2`. Version 2 is pretty standard and robust for webhooks, so I'll go with that.\n\nNow, for configuring this Webhook node.\nThe prompt specifies that it needs to listen for \"POST requests.\" So, within the Webhook node's parameters, I'll set the `httpMethod` to `POST`. This ensures it only responds to incoming POST requests and ignores GET, PUT, etc.\n\nNext, the path. The request says \"on the 'udiasecurity' path.\" This is crucial for how the external system will address our webhook. So, I'll configure the `path` parameter to `udiasecurity`. This means the full URL for this webhook would look something like `your-n8n-instance.com\/webhook\/udiasecurity`.\n\nThen comes the authentication. The request explicitly states \"authenticated using JWT.\" This is a security measure, which is great. In the Webhook node's `authentication` parameter, I'll select `jwtAuth`. This tells the webhook to expect a JSON Web Token in the incoming request's authorization header. For this to work, there would need to be a JWT credential pre-configured in n8n. The JSON indicates this by linking to a credential with an ID and name, like `l3Hr9naLVkPfccM1` and `JWT Auth account`. I don't need to specify the actual token or secret here, just that it's using an existing JWT credential.\n\nThe `options` parameter seems to be an empty object, indicating no special advanced options are needed for this webhook, which keeps it straightforward.\n\nSo, to recap the Webhook node:\n* Node Type: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* Type Version: `2`\n* HTTP Method: `POST`\n* Path: `udiasecurity`\n* Authentication: `jwtAuth` (referencing a pre-configured JWT credential)\n\nSince the user prompt only asked for a *single* Webhook node and the provided JSON confirms only one node, my workflow doesn't need any further connections or nodes. This is a very simple, single-purpose trigger workflow.\n\nFinally, I need to make sure the workflow itself is set up correctly. The prompt mentions it's named \"My workflow 4\" and that it's \"inactive.\"\nSo, I'd set the workflow's overall `name` property to \"My workflow 4.\"\nAnd importantly, I'd set the `active` property of the workflow to `false`. This means that even after saving, it won't start listening for requests until someone manually activates it. This is good practice for workflows that are still under development or not yet ready for production use.\n\nThat pretty much covers all the requirements for this workflow. It's a clean, single-node trigger setup." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers on new Google Drive file uploads in a specific folder and then creates a new page in a Notion database with the file name as the page title and a file property containing the file's web view link.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"event\": \"fileCreated\", \"options\": {}, \"pollTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"mode\": \"everyMinute\"}]}, \"triggerOn\": \"specificFolder\", \"folderToWatch\": \"1_vYi00lSdzU2p6wGrnW_IqsOblOL-3zG\"}, \"name\": \"On file upload\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDriveTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [240, 480]}, {\"parameters\": {\"title\": \"={{$node[\\\"On file upload\\\"].json[\\\"name\\\"]}}\", \"resource\": \"databasePage\", \"databaseId\": \"d637c796-d33b-4768-b955-55c66a0966b7\", \"propertiesUi\": {\"propertyValues\": [{\"key\": \"File|files\", \"fileUrls\": {\"fileUrl\": [{\"url\": \"={{ $json[\\\"webViewLink\\\"] }}\", \"name\": \"={{ $node[\\\"On file upload\\\"].json[\\\"name\\\"] }}\"}]}}]}}, \"name\": \"Create database page\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.notion\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [440, 480]}], \"connections\": {\"On file upload\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Create database page\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's think this through. The goal here is to automate the creation of a Notion page whenever a new file is uploaded to a specific Google Drive folder. This sounds like a classic \"trigger-then-action\" workflow.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to detect when a new file appears in Google Drive. For that, I'll definitely need a trigger node. Looking at the requirements, it's about \"new Google Drive file uploads.\" The perfect fit for this would be a Google Drive trigger. So, I'll start by adding the `n8n-nodes-base.googleDriveTrigger` node. Its `typeVersion` is 1, which seems to be the current standard for this functionality.\n\nNow, how should this Google Drive Trigger be configured? The prompt specifies \"new Google Drive file uploads,\" so I'll set the `event` parameter to `fileCreated`. This ensures it only fires when a new file is added, not updated or deleted. It also mentions \"in a specific folder.\" So, for the `triggerOn` parameter, I'll select `specificFolder`. This is important because I don't want to monitor the entire drive, just a particular location. A specific folder ID would be configured here to tell the node *which* folder to watch. I'd also want to ensure it regularly checks for new files, so for `pollTimes`, setting it to `everyMinute` makes sense to keep the latency low for new uploads. Of course, this node will need a Google Drive credential configured, which would handle the authentication to the user's Google account.\n\nOnce a new file is detected by the Google Drive Trigger, the next step is to create a new page in a Notion database. This means I'll need a Notion node that can interact with databases. The `n8n-nodes-base.notion` node with `typeVersion` 2 is exactly what I'm looking for to handle Notion operations. I'll connect the `main` output of my \"On file upload\" Google Drive Trigger directly to the `main` input of this new \"Create database page\" Notion node. This ensures that every time a new file is detected, the workflow proceeds to create the Notion page.\n\nNow, let's configure this Notion node. The prompt states \"creates a new page in a Notion database.\" So, for the `resource` parameter, I'll select `databasePage`. This is distinct from creating a standalone page or updating existing blocks. Next, I need to tell it *which* database to add the page to. A specific Notion database ID would be provided here in the `databaseId` parameter.\n\nThe prompt has two key pieces of information to include on the Notion page: \"the file name as the page title\" and \"a file property containing the file's web view link.\"\nFor the page `title`, I need to dynamically pull the file name from the data provided by the preceding Google Drive Trigger node. The Google Drive Trigger typically outputs information about the created file, including its name. So, I'd use an expression like `={{$node[\"On file upload\"].json[\"name\"]}}` to map the `name` field from the previous node's output directly to the Notion page title.\n\nFor the file property, this is a bit more involved. Inside the `propertiesUi` section of the Notion node's parameters, I'd add a new property. The prompt specifies \"a file property.\" Assuming the Notion database has a property named \"File\" (or similar) that is of a \"Files & media\" type, I'd set the `key` to something like `File|files`. This tells n8n to target the 'File' property and that it expects file-related data. Within this property, I need to provide the \"file's web view link.\" The Google Drive Trigger usually provides a `webViewLink` for the file. So, I'll configure a `fileUrl` entry. For the `url` within this `fileUrl` object, I'd use another expression: `={{ $json[\"webViewLink\"] }}`. This pulls the direct web view link from the data passed along from the Google Drive Trigger. And, it's good practice to also provide a `name` for this file link in Notion, so I'll set that using `={{ $node[\"On file upload\"].json[\"name\"] }}` again, using the original file name.\n\nFinally, just like the Google Drive node, this Notion node will require a Notion API credential to be configured, allowing it to authenticate with Notion and perform the page creation. This would typically involve an internal API key or token that provides access to the user's Notion workspace.\n\nThat should cover all the requirements: a trigger for new Google Drive files in a specific folder, and an action to create a Notion database page with the file name as the title and the web view link in a file property. The flow of data is straightforward: the trigger provides the file details, and the Notion node consumes those details to create the page." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, followed by an \"If\" node that checks if the input \"a\" is equal to 3, and then a debug node. Pre-populate the trigger with two data sets, one with `a = 1` and one with `a = 2`.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"conditions\": {\"options\": {\"caseSensitive\": true, \"leftValue\": \"\", \"typeValidation\": \"strict\", \"version\": 2}, \"conditions\": [{\"id\": \"6f0cf983-824b-4339-a5de-6b374a23b4b0\", \"leftValue\": \"={{ $json.a }}\", \"rightValue\": 3, \"operator\": {\"type\": \"number\", \"operation\": \"equals\"}}], \"combinator\": \"and\"}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"If\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.if\", \"typeVersion\": 2.2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Execute workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"category\": \"randomData\"}, \"name\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [580, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"If\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}], [{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"When clicking \\u2018Execute workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"If\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed.\n\nFirst things first, the prompt explicitly states that the workflow needs to start with a manual trigger. This tells me I'll need a trigger node that can be initiated by a user click. Looking at the available nodes, the `Manual Trigger` node is the perfect fit for this. So, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is really straightforward; its main purpose is to kick off the workflow when someone manually clicks \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n interface.\n\nNow, the prompt also mentioned pre-populating this trigger with two data sets: one with `a = 1` and another with `a = 2`. This is a crucial part of testing the `If` condition later. I'll make sure to add these items to the `pinData` section of this `Manual Trigger` node. So, when the workflow runs, it will process two separate items, each with a different value for 'a'. This allows us to easily simulate different inputs without having to manually provide them each time.\n\nNext up, the prompt requires an \"If\" node to check a condition: \"if the input 'a' is equal to 3\". This immediately points me to the `If` node. It's designed specifically for conditional branching, sending data down one path if a condition is met, and another path if it's not. So, I'll add an `If` node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.if` with `typeVersion: 2.2`. The `typeVersion` doesn't dramatically change the core logic here, but it's good to be aware of which version we're using as newer versions sometimes offer more advanced features or subtle behavior changes.\n\nNow, I need to configure this `If` node. The condition is `a` equals `3`. So, I'll set the `leftValue` to `={{ $json.a }}`, which is how we access the 'a' property from the incoming JSON data from the `Manual Trigger`. The `rightValue` will be `3`, and the `operator` will be `equals`, specifically a `number` comparison since 'a' is expected to be a number. It's also important to ensure `typeValidation` is set to `strict` for precise comparisons and `caseSensitive` to `true` (though for numbers, it doesn't really matter here). The `combinator` should be `and` as we only have one condition. This setup ensures that only items where the 'a' value is exactly 3 will pass through the 'true' branch of the If node.\n\nAfter the `If` node, the prompt asks for a debug node. This is very useful for verifying what data is flowing through the workflow, especially after a conditional check. The `DebugHelper` node is ideal for this. It simply outputs the data it receives, allowing us to inspect it in the execution results. So, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper` with `typeVersion: 1`. I typically make sure it's set to `alwaysOutputData: true` so that even if there are internal processing issues, I can still see what input it received. This helps a lot during troubleshooting.\n\nFinally, let's connect these nodes.\nThe `Manual Trigger` node should connect directly to the input of the `If` node. This ensures that the data items (`a=1` and `a=2`) from the trigger are passed along to be evaluated by the conditional logic.\n\nFor the `If` node, it has two potential outputs: one for when the condition is `true` and one for when it's `false`. In this specific request, it just says \"and then a debug node,\" implying that regardless of the outcome of the 'If' check, we want to see the data in the debug node. So, I will connect *both* the 'true' output and the 'false' output of the `If` node to the `DebugHelper` node. This way, we'll see both the item where `a=1` (which will go through the false branch) and the item where `a=2` (also through the false branch) appearing in the debug node's output. If we had an item where `a=3`, it would go through the true branch and still end up in the same debug node. This creates a unified output for inspection.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The workflow starts, evaluates, and then logs the outcome for inspection." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that receives a POST request with video details, sends it to the Shotstack API to queue a video render, and returns the queued ID.

The user wants to \"receive a POST request with video details.\" For this, a Webhook node is absolutely essential. It's the primary way n8n workflows can be triggered by external HTTP requests.\n\nSo, I'd add a **Webhook** node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and, looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion 2`. I'd name it something descriptive like \"Queued Hook.\"\n\nNow, how should this webhook be configured? The prompt specifies it should receive a POST request, so I'll set its `httpMethod` parameter to \"POST\". It also needs a `path` to make it unique, so I'll set that to \"queuded-video\". This means the full webhook URL would end with `\/webhook\/queuded-video`. A critical setting for this workflow is the `responseMode`. Since the workflow needs to \"return the queued ID\" *after* sending data to Shotstack, the webhook shouldn't respond immediately. It needs to wait for a subsequent node to send the response. So, I'd set `responseMode` to \"responseNode\". This tells the webhook to expect a \"Respond to Webhook\" node later in the flow.\n\nNext, after the webhook receives the video details, the workflow needs to \"send it to the Shotstack API to queue a video render.\" Sending data to an external API almost always means using an HTTP Request node.\n\nSo, I'd add an **HTTP Request** node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` and `typeVersion 4.2`. I'll connect its main input from the \"Queued Hook\" node, because the data received by the webhook (the video details) will be the input for this HTTP request. I'll call this node \"Shotstack Queued Request\".\n\nConfiguring this HTTP Request node involves a few key parameters. The `method` should be \"POST\" because we're telling Shotstack to *create* a render. The `url` would be the Shotstack API endpoint for rendering, which I can see is `https:\/\/api.shotstack.io\/v1\/render`.\n\nFor `headers`, the Shotstack API will certainly require an API key for authentication, so `sendHeaders` needs to be true. I'd add a header parameter named \"x-api-key\" where the user's Shotstack API key would be provided. Additionally, since we're sending video details in a structured format, the `Content-Type` header should be set to \"application\/json\" to inform the API about the body's format.\n\nThen comes the `body`. We need to send the video details that the webhook received. The easiest way to do this is to simply pass the entire incoming JSON body from the webhook directly to Shotstack. So, `sendBody` would be true, `specifyBody` would be \"json\", and for the `jsonBody` parameter, I'd use an expression: `={{ $json.body }}`. This expression ensures that whatever JSON payload the \"Queued Hook\" received will be sent verbatim as the request body to Shotstack. This simplifies the workflow significantly, as we don't need to parse and reconstruct the payload.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that the workflow should \"return the queued ID\" after the Shotstack API call. Since our initial webhook was configured to wait for a response node, we now need a node to actually send that response back.\n\nSo, I'd add a **Respond to Webhook** node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion 1.1`. I'll connect its main input from the \"Shotstack Queued Request\" node. The output from the Shotstack API call (which hopefully includes the queued ID) will be the input for this response node. I'll name it \"Return Queded Id\".\n\nFor its configuration, the `respondWith` parameter can be set to \"text\" because we'll be constructing a custom JSON string. The `responseBody` is where we'll pull the relevant information from the Shotstack API's response. Shotstack's API typically returns a JSON object with details about the queued render. I'd expect the `id` of the queued render to be within the `response` object of the returned data. So, the `responseBody` would be an expression like `{\\n\\\"success\\\" : {{ $json.success}},\\n\\\"queued_id\\\" : \\\"{{ $json.response.id }}\\\"\\n}`. This dynamically creates a JSON response using the `success` field directly from the Shotstack response and extracts the `id` from the `response` property, putting it into a `queued_id` field. This directly fulfills the requirement to return the queued ID. And, of course, the `responseCode` for success would be 200." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that sends an email via AWS SES when the \"Execute\" button is clicked, sending a message to two email addresses.

The user prompt specifically says the email should be sent \"when the 'Execute' button is clicked.\" This immediately tells me I'll need a trigger node that responds to a manual execution.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and in this case, its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is absolutely perfect for the requirement because it does exactly what it says: it triggers the workflow only when the user explicitly clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n editor or via an API call. It doesn't need any specific configurations itself, as its purpose is purely to initiate the flow on demand. I'd probably name it something clear like \"On clicking 'execute'\" to reflect its role.\n\nOnce that trigger is in place, the core task is to send an email via AWS SES. So, the very next node in the chain needs to handle that. n8n has a dedicated node for AWS SES, which simplifies things greatly.\n\nI'll add an **AWS SES** node right after the manual trigger. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.awsSes`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the logical choice because the prompt explicitly states \"via AWS SES.\"\n\nNow, let's think about how to configure this AWS SES node to meet the prompt's requirements.\nThe prompt specifies:\n* Subject: \"n8n Rocks\"\n* Body: \"This is a sample message body in an email\"\n* Recipients: Two email addresses.\n\nLooking at the parameters for the AWS SES node:\n* There's a `subject` field. I'll configure that to be \"n8n Rocks\". Simple enough, directly matching the requirement.\n* Next, the `body` field. I'll input \"This is a sample message body in an email\" there. It's important to remember that email bodies often have newline characters, so if the original text had one, I'd make sure it's reflected here.\n* Then, there's a `fromEmail` field. This specifies the sender's email address. While the exact value isn't provided in the prompt, the JSON indicates `n8n@n8n.io`. I would configure this with the appropriate sender email address that is verified in AWS SES.\n* Crucially, there's a `toAddresses` field, which takes an array of email addresses. The prompt asks for two email addresses. So, I would add the two specified recipient email addresses here. The JSON suggests `user@example.com` and `user2@example.com`, which are placeholders for the actual recipients.\n* There's also an `additionalFields` object, but the prompt doesn't specify any extra headers or return paths, so I'll leave that as an empty object, as it appears in the JSON.\n\nFinally, for the AWS SES node to function, it needs credentials to authenticate with AWS. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"aws\": \"aws\"}`. This means that a pre-configured AWS credential set, which would contain the AWS Access Key ID and Secret Access Key, needs to be selected or set up in n8n. This credential would be securely stored within n8n and linked to this node, allowing it to authorize the email sending request to Amazon's services.\n\nAfter configuring the AWS SES node, the last step is to connect the two nodes. The `manualTrigger` node needs to tell the `AWS SES` node to execute. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the `main` input of the \"AWS SES\" node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the AWS SES node immediately receives an item (even if it's an empty one, as the trigger doesn't output data) and proceeds to send the email. This sequential flow makes perfect sense: trigger, then send email.\n\nAnd that's it. A simple, two-node workflow that fulfills all the requirements: triggered manually, sending a specific subject and body to two recipients via AWS SES." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON representation of an n8n workflow with a manual trigger node connected to a code node that adds a \"myNewField\" property with value 1 to each input item.

The prompt clearly states it needs a \"manual trigger node.\" This tells me exactly where to start.\n\nSo, the very first node I'll add to my canvas will be a **Manual Trigger node**. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and it has a `typeVersion` of `1`. This is perfect for what's needed because it allows me to execute the workflow whenever I choose, typically by clicking a button in the n8n interface. It's great for testing, or for workflows that aren't meant to run on a schedule or react to external events, but rather on demand. I'd give it a clear name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's obvious what it does. I'd place it towards the left side of my canvas, as it's the starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt specifies that this manual trigger should be \"connected to a code node that adds a 'myNewField' property with value 1 to each input item.\" This means after my trigger fires, the data (even if it's just an empty item from the manual trigger) needs to be processed.\n\nFor processing data with custom logic like adding a new field, a **Code node** is the ideal choice. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.code`, and the JSON also confirms `typeVersion: 1`. This node is incredibly flexible because it allows me to write custom JavaScript to manipulate the data flowing through the workflow. It's exactly what I need to add a new property to each item.\n\nI'll connect the `main` output of my \"On clicking 'execute'\" Manual Trigger node to the `main` input of this new \"Code\" node. This ensures that any items generated or passed by the trigger (in this case, typically a single empty item for a manual trigger) are sent directly to the Code node for processing.\n\nNow, for configuring the Code node itself. The core requirement is to add `myNewField` with a value of `1` to *each* input item. Inside the Code node's parameters, specifically in the `jsCode` field, I'd write some JavaScript. I'd need to iterate over all incoming items, which n8n makes easy with `$input.all()`. So, I'd set up a `for...of` loop to go through `for (const item of $input.all())`. Inside that loop, for each `item`, I'd access its `json` property and add the new field: `item.json.myNewField = 1;`. Finally, to ensure the modified items are passed along to any subsequent nodes (or are visible in the execution results), I need to return them: `return $input.all();`. This exactly matches the code snippet provided in the JSON, so I'm on the right track. I'd position this node to the right of the Manual Trigger, establishing a clear left-to-right flow.\n\nLooking at the connections again, the JSON shows `\"Code\": {\"main\": [[]]}`, which means the main output of the Code node isn't connected to anything further in this specific workflow. For this scenario, it's perfectly fine as the prompt only describes up to the Code node's functionality.\n\nFinally, the prompt mentions including \"tags named 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'\". These aren't nodes, but metadata for the entire workflow. Once the nodes are in place and connected, I'd go to the workflow's settings or properties panel and add these tags. This helps with organization and searchability within n8n, especially when you have many workflows. The JSON explicitly defines these in the `tags` array, which includes their names and some internal n8n timestamps and IDs. That's a good way to keep workflows categorized.\n\nThe workflow's `active` status is `false` in the JSON, which is a common default for a new workflow until it's fully tested and ready to be deployed.

This node is ideal because it allows the workflow to be activated by an incoming HTTP request, which is exactly how we'll get the `name` and `event` parameters. For configuration, I'd set its path. The JSON suggests `\"greetinghook\"`, which makes sense \u2013 it's descriptive and easy to remember for anyone sending data to this workflow.\n\nNext, once we receive the `name` and `event` from the webhook, we need to construct that personalized greeting. A simple way to do this is with a Function node. Specifically, since we're just processing the data of a single item (or potentially multiple if the webhook sent an array, though here it seems to be single item processing), a **FunctionItem** node (`n8n-nodes-base.functionItem`, `typeVersion 1`) would be a great fit. It's really good for transforming or adding data to individual items. I'd connect the `Webhook` node's main output to the `FunctionItem` node's main input.\n\nInside the `FunctionItem` node, I'd write some JavaScript to take the `name` and `event` parameters received by the webhook and combine them into a greeting string. The webhook usually puts query parameters into the `item.query` object. So, I'd expect `item.query.name` and `item.query.event`. The code would look something like `item.greeting = 'Hello ' + item.query.name + ', have fun at the ' + item.query.event + '!';`. The provided JSON also shows a template literal version, `item.greeting = \\`Hello ${item.query.name}, have fun at the ${item.query.event}!\\`;`, which is a bit cleaner. Both achieve the same goal: adding a new `greeting` property to the current item's data, which will then be passed to the next node. It's important to `return item;` at the end so the modified item is passed along.\n\nFinally, with the personalized greeting ready, the last step is to send it via HTTP POST to a specified URL. This immediately brings to mind an **HTTP Request** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` and it's also `typeVersion 1`. This node is perfect for sending data to external web services. I'd connect the `FunctionItem` node's main output to the `HTTP Request` node's main input.\n\nFor the `HTTP Request` node's configuration, I'd need to set the URL where the greeting should be sent. The JSON provides an example URL like `https:\/\/webhook.site\/c0a47a6f-6a71-4d18-baef-51f694f7c56b`, but in a real-world scenario, this would be a user-defined endpoint. The request method needs to be set to `POST`, as per the prompt. Then, I need to define the body of the request. The prompt asks to send the greeting, so I'd add a body parameter. I'd name it something clear like `\"greeting\"` and its value would dynamically pull the `greeting` property from the previous `FunctionItem` node. This would be done using an expression, something like `={{$node[\"FunctionItem\"].data[\"greeting\"]}}`. This ensures that whatever personalized message we just created is what gets sent out. I'd also probably set the `responseFormat` to `string` or `json` depending on the expected response from the target URL, `string` seems fine here if we just want to see the raw response." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object representing an n8n workflow that triggers another workflow upon manual trigger, including data for testing the trigger node.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"workflowId\": {}, \"workflowInputs\": {\"mappingMode\": \"defineBelow\", \"value\": {}, \"matchingColumns\": [], \"schema\": [], \"attemptToConvertTypes\": false, \"convertFieldsToString\": true}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [500, 240]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Execute Workflow\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start by designing this workflow. The core requirement is to have a manual trigger that then activates another n8n workflow.\n\nFirst things first, to kick off the workflow manually, I'll need a trigger node. The most appropriate choice for this is the `Manual Trigger` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and `typeVersion 1` is the current stable version for this functionality. I'll place it right at the beginning of the canvas, at position `[0, 0]`, and give it a clear, descriptive name like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\". This makes it immediately obvious what the node does.\n\nA crucial part of the requirement is to include \"data for testing the trigger node.\" The `Manual Trigger` node conveniently allows us to pre-define test data, which is captured in the `pinData` property of the workflow JSON. This is incredibly useful during development because it means I don't have to run an upstream process just to get data into my workflow for testing. I'd go into the node's settings and add a few example items with different data types to ensure comprehensive testing. For instance, I'd define two items. The first item could have a string field named `aaString` with the value \"A String\", a number `aaNumber` set to `1`, an array `aaArray` like `[1, true, \"3\"]`, an object `aaObject` containing `{\"aKey\": -1}`, and an `aaAny` field which I'll just leave as an empty object `{}`. For the second item, I'd provide similar fields but with different values, like `aaString: \"Another String\"`, `aaNumber: 2`, an empty `aaArray: []`, a different object `aaObject: {\"aDifferentKey\": -1}`, and `aaAny: []` this time. This gives me two distinct test cases directly accessible from the trigger.\n\nNext, the workflow needs to \"trigger another workflow.\" For this specific task, n8n provides an `Execute Workflow` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow`, and I'd use `typeVersion 1.2`. This node is designed precisely for invoking one n8n workflow from within another. I'll name it \"Execute Workflow\" to clearly state its purpose and position it to the right of the trigger, perhaps at `[500, 240]`, allowing for good visual flow.\n\nNow, for the connections: I need to link the `Manual Trigger` to the `Execute Workflow` node. The `main` output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node should connect to the `main` input of the \"Execute Workflow\" node. This ensures that whenever the manual trigger is activated, the execution flow and any data generated by it (like our test `pinData`) are passed directly to the `Execute Workflow` node for further processing.\n\nFinally, I need to configure the `Execute Workflow` node itself. The most important parameter here is `workflowId`. This is where I would specify the unique ID of the target n8n workflow that this node should execute. The JSON shows this as an empty object, indicating it's a placeholder waiting for the specific ID to be entered by the user.\n\nBelow the `workflowId`, there's the `workflowInputs` parameter. This is how data from *this* workflow gets passed as input to the *triggered* workflow. The `mappingMode` is set to `defineBelow`, which means I would typically use expressions or drag-and-drop from the previous node's output to explicitly define what data should be passed. However, in the provided JSON, the `value` field within `workflowInputs` is an empty object, and `matchingColumns` and `schema` are empty arrays. This indicates that while the node is ready to accept and pass inputs, no specific data mapping has been configured yet. If I were setting this up, and given the `Manual Trigger` has test data, I might drag some of those `aaString`, `aaNumber`, etc., fields into this `workflowInputs` section so the triggered workflow receives them. The `convertFieldsToString` property is set to `true`, which is a good default, as it ensures that all passed fields are converted to strings, which can prevent type mismatch issues in the receiving workflow. `attemptToConvertTypes` is `false`, reinforcing the string conversion. So, while ready, no explicit inputs are currently being sent to the child workflow based on the provided configuration." } { "prompt": "Create a JSON object representing an n8n workflow with a Form Trigger node connected to a Switch node, including pin data for the Form Trigger. The Form Trigger captures a single field called \"test\" and the Switch will likely route data based on the submitted data.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow 8\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a\", \"formTitle\": \"test\", \"formFields\": {\"values\": [{\"fieldLabel\": \"test\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"n8n Form Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [620, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.switch\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [800, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"n8n Form Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is pretty clear about needing a Form Trigger and then a Switch node, so that's where my focus will be.\n\nFirst things first, to kick off any workflow, you need a trigger. Given the request specifies a \"Form Trigger node,\" that's naturally where I'll begin. Looking at the provided JSON, I can see the first node defined is indeed an \"n8n Form Trigger\" of type `n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is perfect for capturing data submitted through a web form, which is exactly what we need here.\n\nFor its configuration, I'd want to set up the form itself. The JSON shows a `path` parameter set to `d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a`. This `path` defines the unique part of the URL where the form will be accessible. It also has a `webhookId` with the same value, which internally links this trigger to a specific endpoint. I wouldn't set this manually; n8n usually generates it when you create the form trigger, ensuring it's unique. The `formTitle` is set to \"test,\" which makes sense for what the form is about. The crucial part for data capture is within `formFields`. It's configured to capture `values` with a single `fieldLabel` named \"test.\" This aligns perfectly with the requirement that the Form Trigger captures a single field called \"test.\" So, when someone fills out this form, whatever they enter into that \"test\" field will be passed along as input to the next node. The `options` parameter is empty, indicating no special options like redirection or custom success messages are configured at this point, which is fine for a basic setup.\n\nNow, once the form data is submitted, where does it go? The request states it should connect to a Switch node. So, my next logical step is to add that \"Switch\" node. In the JSON, I see a node named \"Switch\" with `type: n8n-nodes-base.switch` and `typeVersion: 2`. The Switch node is ideal for routing data based on conditions, which perfectly matches the description of \"will likely route data based on the submitted data.\" For its initial setup, the `parameters` block is empty. This is typical for a newly added Switch node. Its actual routing logic (the conditions for each branch) would be configured *after* it's connected and you're ready to define how it inspects the incoming data from the Form Trigger. You'd tell it, for example, \"if the 'test' field contains 'foo', go this way; otherwise, go that way.\"\n\nRegarding connections, the workflow needs to flow from the Form Trigger to the Switch. The `connections` section in the JSON confirms this: `n8n Form Trigger` has a `main` output connection leading to the `Switch` node, specifically `node: \"Switch\", type: \"main\", index: 0`. This means that any data successfully received by the Form Trigger will be sent directly as input to the Switch node's primary input.\n\nOne interesting piece in the JSON is the `pinData` section, specifically for the `n8n Form Trigger`. This `pinData` contains two JSON items: `{\"name\": \"First item\", \"code\": 1}` and `{\"name\": \"Second item\", \"code\": 2}`. For a trigger node like the Form Trigger, `pinData` represents example data. It's essentially mock data that you can use during workflow development and testing. It allows you to simulate what the trigger would output without actually having to submit the form every time. So, when I'm building and testing, I could choose \"First item\" or \"Second item\" as the simulated input, and the workflow would run as if the form had been submitted with that data. This is incredibly useful for iterative design and debugging without external dependencies. While these examples don't directly show the \"test\" field data (they seem more generic), they serve the purpose of demonstrating `pinData` functionality. If I were designing this, I'd probably put `{\"test\": \"someValue\"}` in the `pinData` for more accurate testing, but the provided `pinData` illustrates the concept well.\n\nFinally, looking at the top-level workflow properties, it's named \"My workflow 8,\" which is just a default name. `active` is set to `false`, meaning the workflow isn't currently running, which is standard for a workflow still under construction or in a testing phase. The `settings` indicate `executionOrder: \"v1\"`, a standard setting for how node executions are sequenced. The `versionId`, `id`, `meta`, and `tags` are all internal identifiers and organizational metadata, not directly part of the functional logic but essential for n8n's internal management and deployment.\n\nSo, the design starts with capturing form submissions, then immediately hands that submitted data over to a Switch node, which will then make decisions based on the captured \"test\" field. This seems like a solid foundation for a data routing workflow." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object representing an n8n workflow named \"asana workflow\" triggered manually, connecting to an Asana node. Include nodes for manual trigger and Asana with default parameters and connections.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"asana workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"otherProperties\": {}}, \"name\": \"Asana\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.asana\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [220, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Asana\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start thinking about how to build this \"asana workflow.\" The goal, as I understand it, is to create a workflow that's triggered manually and then interacts with Asana.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt specifically asks for a *manually triggered* workflow. So, right off the bat, I know I need to include a node for that. Looking at the available nodes, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node is perfect for this. It's designed exactly for scenarios where a user explicitly clicks a button to start the workflow execution. I'd typically pick `typeVersion: 1` for this, as it's a standard, stable version for manual triggers.\n\nSo, I'd place this `manualTrigger` node. Its name \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" is quite descriptive, clearly indicating its purpose. For its parameters, since it's a simple manual trigger, there's no complex configuration needed. An empty `{}` for `parameters` means it uses its default behavior, which is exactly what we want for a basic manual trigger. I'd put it at position `[0, 0]` on the canvas, as it's the very first node.\n\nNext, the prompt indicates that this workflow should connect to an Asana node. This tells me what the main action of the workflow will be. So, after the manual trigger, the logical next step is to add the `n8n-nodes-base.asana` node. This node type is specifically designed to interact with the Asana API, allowing us to perform various operations like creating tasks, updating projects, or querying data. Again, `typeVersion: 1` is a good choice for a foundational integration node like this.\n\nNow, where do I put this Asana node? I'll want it visually distinct from the trigger but clearly downstream. Placing it at `[220, 0]` seems appropriate \u2013 it's to the right of the trigger, implying a flow. The name \"Asana\" is straightforward and clearly identifies what it does.\n\nFor the Asana node's parameters, the JSON shows `{\"otherProperties\": {}}`. This is interesting. It implies that for this particular workflow, no specific operation (like \"create task\" or \"get project\") or resource (like \"task\" or \"project\") has been set explicitly in the configuration. It's essentially using the node's default state, perhaps waiting for a user to configure it later, or maybe it's just a placeholder for a more complex Asana operation that would be dynamically set or is very basic by default. If I were building this from scratch and *had* to define an operation, I'd be thinking, \"Okay, what's the *most common* thing I'd want to do with Asana?\" but since the JSON provides `otherProperties: {}`, I'll stick with that. It keeps the node in its most generic, default form, without any specific credentials or detailed operation parameters being pre-filled. This also ensures no sensitive information like specific Asana API keys or workspace IDs are accidentally included in this default setup; those would be configured in the node's credentials section separately.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The `connections` object shows `{\"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Asana\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This is a standard `main` connection, which means the output of the `manualTrigger` node (which is typically just an empty item or a simple trigger event) will flow directly as input to the `Asana` node. This is exactly what we want: when the workflow is manually triggered, that event immediately kicks off the Asana node's execution. The `index: 0` means it connects to the first (and in this case, only) input of the Asana node.\n\nSo, to recap the flow: a user clicks the \"Test workflow\" button, which activates the `manualTrigger` node. This node then sends its output to the `Asana` node via a `main` connection, causing the `Asana` node to execute. With its default parameters, it's ready for a user to specify what Asana operation they want to perform, and provide the necessary credentials. This seems like a perfectly simple and robust starting point for an Asana-focused workflow." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with an \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node, named \"My workflow 4\", and has no connections.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow 4\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [300, 340]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow built from the ground up.\n\nFirst things first, I need to establish the main container for our work, which is the workflow itself. Based on the prompt, the workflow needs to be named \"My workflow 4\". So, I'd start by creating a new blank workflow in n8n and immediately give it that name to keep things organized.\n\nNow, let's look at the actual content of the workflow. The prompt specifies it \"starts with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node\" and the provided JSON confirms there's only one node in this workflow.\n\nSo, my next step is to add that specific trigger node. I'd go into the node palette, search for trigger nodes, and pick the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node.\n\n* The node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`. This type of node is really useful when you want one workflow to be able to call or \"trigger\" another workflow. It acts like an API endpoint or a callable function within n8n itself, allowing you to build modular workflows where one workflow initiates another. It's a key component for creating interconnected systems within n8n.\n* The `typeVersion` specified in the JSON is `1`. It's important to use this specific version. If I were to use a different version, say `2` if it existed, there might be subtle changes in how the node behaves or how its parameters are structured, which could break compatibility if this workflow were part of a larger system expecting version 1's behavior. So, sticking to version 1 is crucial for fidelity to the provided design.\n* The `name` of this node is explicitly \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" in the JSON, so I'll make sure its display name matches that.\n* Looking at the `parameters` for this node, the JSON shows an empty object `{}`. This tells me that no specific configuration is needed for this \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node. It means it's set up with its default behavior, ready to be triggered without any special input requirements or filters. It's a very straightforward, unconfigured entry point.\n* The `position` `[300, 340]` just gives me an idea of where it would sit on the canvas. I'd place it somewhere visible, typically towards the left side, as it's a trigger node.\n\nFinally, the prompt states, and the JSON confirms with `connections: {}`, that this workflow \"has no connections.\" After adding the single \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node, I'd make sure no output line is drawn from it to any other potential node. In this particular case, since there are no other nodes in the workflow, there's nothing to connect it to, so it naturally remains isolated.

The prompt asks for a specific sequence, starting with a manual trigger, flowing into two \"Edit Fields\" nodes, and then also including two nodes of unknown types. I'll make sure the connections are correctly defined to reflect that sequence.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. For this workflow, the prompt explicitly asks for a manual trigger. So, I'll begin by adding a **Trigger** node. Specifically, I'll use the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node with `typeVersion 1`. This node is ideal because it allows a user to initiate the workflow execution simply by clicking a button in the n8n interface, which perfectly matches the \"manual trigger\" requirement. There aren't any specific parameters to configure for a basic manual trigger; it just waits for a user to tell it to run. I'll place it strategically to be the very first node in our primary flow.\n\nNext, the prompt indicates the manual trigger should flow into a \"first Edit Fields\" node. For \"Edit Fields\" functionality in n8n, the `Set` node is the go-to choice. It's excellent for adding, changing, or removing fields from incoming data. So, I'll add a `n8n-nodes-base.set` node. Looking at the provided JSON, it uses `typeVersion 3.2`. This version typically brings some improvements or new options compared to older versions, but its core function remains the same: manipulating data fields. I'll name this node \"Edit Fields\" as per the requirement. The parameters for this specific node show `options` as an empty object, which means that while it's ready to edit fields, no specific field manipulations (like adding a new field or changing an existing one) are currently configured. It's essentially a pass-through unless configured.\n\nNow, for the connection: I need to ensure the data flows correctly from our manual trigger to this first \"Edit Fields\" node. I'll draw a \"main\" connection from the output of the `When clicking \u2018Execute workflow\u2019` node to the input of the `Edit Fields` node. This will make sure that when the manual trigger is activated, any data it might generate (or an empty item if it's just triggering) is passed directly to the `Edit Fields` node for processing.\n\nFollowing the sequence, the prompt states that the first \"Edit Fields\" node should flow to a second one. So, my next step is to add another `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, again using `typeVersion 3.2`, just like the previous one. I'll name this \"Edit Fields1\" to distinguish it from the first. Similar to its predecessor, its `parameters` show empty `options`, indicating no specific field operations are defined at this moment. It's ready to modify data, but currently, it will just pass the data through if nothing is set up.\n\nThe connection for this second \"Edit Fields\" node is crucial. It needs to receive data from the first \"Edit Fields\" node. So, I'll connect the \"main\" output of the `Edit Fields` node to the \"main\" input of this new `Edit Fields1` node. This establishes the clear, sequential flow: Trigger -> Edit Fields -> Edit Fields1. This ensures that whatever data is passed through or potentially modified by the first \"Edit Fields\" node will then be available for the second one to process.\n\nFinally, the prompt mentions two nodes of \"unknown types.\" These are interesting because they don't seem to be part of the main sequential flow we just built, but they are present in the overall workflow structure. Based on the JSON, these are truly placeholder nodes:\n* One node named \"Unknown node 1\" with `type: n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist` and `typeVersion 1`.\n* And another named \"Unknown node 2\" with `type: n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither` and `typeVersion 1`.\nBoth have empty parameters, as expected for generic, undefined nodes. I'll add these to the workflow design. Given their generic placeholder types and the fact that the provided JSON shows no connections to them, I'll include them as standalone nodes within the workflow canvas. They exist as part of the workflow definition but are currently isolated from the main data flow path of the trigger and set nodes. If they were real nodes, they might be part of a separate branch, or perhaps intended for future connection, but for now, they simply exist as distinct entities in the workflow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers a Twitter post \"Hello from n8n!\" on execution, then uses an IF node to check if the `$runIndex` is 4, routing to a NoOp node if false.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"conditions\": {\"number\": [{\"value1\": \"={{$runIndex}}\", \"value2\": 4}]}}, \"name\": \"IF\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.if\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 150]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"NoOp\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.noOp\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [750, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"Hello from n8n!\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Twitter\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.twitter\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [440, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"IF\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Twitter\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}], [{\"node\": \"NoOp\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Twitter\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"IF\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Twitter\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed.

Given the prompt states \"on execution,\" a manual trigger is ideal here. I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is really straightforward; it doesn't need any parameters configured. Its sole purpose is to get the workflow going when I click 'execute' in the n8n interface.\n\nNow that we have our starting point, the next step in the prompt is to \"trigger a Twitter post 'Hello from n8n!'\". So, naturally, the very next node should be a Twitter node. I'll connect the output of my `On clicking 'execute'` node directly to this new Twitter node. This will be an `n8n-nodes-base.twitter` node, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. For its configuration, the main parameter I need to set is the `text` field, where I'll put \"Hello from n8n!\". There aren't any `additionalFields` specified, so I'll leave those as they are. Of course, to make this work in a real scenario, this node would require credentials, which would be an OAuth 1.0 API credential for Twitter. The JSON mentions `twitterOAuth1Api` as \"Dummy Account,\" which is exactly how you'd reference a stored credential without exposing the sensitive API keys or tokens directly within the workflow definition.\n\nOkay, so we've got the trigger and the Twitter post. What's next? The prompt says \"then uses an IF node to check if the `$runIndex` is 4.\" This tells me the Twitter node's output should feed directly into an IF node. So, I'll draw a connection from the `Twitter` node to a new `IF` node. This will be an `n8n-nodes-base.if` node, also with `typeVersion 1`.\n\nNow, how do I configure this IF node? The condition is crucial: \"check if the `$runIndex` is 4.\" In n8n, `$runIndex` is a special variable that represents the current run number of the workflow instance. It increments with each execution of the workflow. I'll go into the `conditions` parameter for this IF node. Specifically, it's a `number` comparison. I'll set `value1` to `={{$runIndex}}`. This is important \u2013 I'm using an expression `={{...}}` to dynamically pull the `$runIndex` value for each execution. Then, `value2` will be `4`. This sets up the comparison: is the current run index equal to 4?\n\nAlright, the IF node is set up, but what happens for its true and false outcomes? The prompt explicitly states: \"routing to a NoOp node if false.\" So, from the IF node's *false* output (which is typically the second output on the node), I'll connect it to a `NoOp` node. This `NoOp` node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.noOp` and `typeVersion 1`. A NoOp node is a \"no operation\" node; it essentially does nothing. It's often used as a terminal point for a branch of logic, or just a placeholder when you want to end a path without performing any further action. It also doesn't require any specific configuration parameters.\n\nNow, this is where it gets interesting based on the provided JSON. The prompt only described the \"false\" path. Looking at the connections in the JSON, the \"true\" path of the IF node (`index: 0` for `main` connections) actually routes *back* to the `Twitter` node. This means if the `$runIndex` *is* 4, the workflow will essentially loop back and execute the Twitter node again. This creates a loop: `Trigger -> Twitter -> IF -> (if true) Twitter -> ...`. So, as long as `$runIndex` is *not* 4, the IF node will direct the execution to the `NoOp` node. However, if `$runIndex` *is* 4, the IF node will direct execution back to the Twitter node, causing another tweet to be posted. This implies that the workflow is intended to continue posting until `$runIndex` becomes 4, and at that point it posts *again*, then presumably the next run will have `$runIndex` as 5, sending it to the NoOp node to stop. It's a specific kind of loop logic that handles the `$runIndex` reaching a particular value by continuing an action.\n\nSo, to summarize the connections:\n* `On clicking 'execute'` connects to the `Twitter` node.\n* The `Twitter` node connects to the `IF` node.\n* The `IF` node's *true* output connects back to the `Twitter` node, forming a loop.\n* The `IF` node's *false* output connects to the `NoOp` node, ending that particular branch of execution for the workflow instance.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow as defined by the JSON, ensuring each node's purpose and its connection to the overall flow are clear." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object representing an n8n workflow named \"My workflow\" with a single Schedule Trigger node, set to inactive, using the Asia\/Colombo timezone and an error workflow ID.

The goal is to create a workflow named \"My workflow\" that's currently inactive, uses a specific timezone, has an error workflow configured, and includes a single Schedule Trigger node. Plus, there's some metadata about template credentials.\n\nFirst off, I'd set up the foundational elements of the workflow itself. The prompt specifies the name as \"My workflow,\" so that's easy enough. More importantly, it needs to be `active: false`. This means the workflow won't run until it's manually activated, which is a good default state for a new or templated workflow.\n\nThen, looking at the global `settings`, I see a few key things.\n* The `timezone` is specified as \"Asia\/Colombo.\" This is crucial because any time-based nodes, like our Schedule Trigger, will operate according to this timezone, not the server's local time, ensuring consistent scheduling.\n* There's an `errorWorkflow` ID provided. This tells me that if this workflow encounters an unhandled error during execution, it's designed to pass control to another specific workflow, which presumably handles error logging, notifications, or recovery. This is a really robust way to manage potential issues in a production environment.\n* The `executionOrder` is `v1` and `callerPolicy` is `workflowsFromSameOwner`, which are pretty standard default settings for how workflows execute and interact.\n\nFinally, at the top level, there's `meta: {templateCredsSetupCompleted: true}`. This is just metadata, but it's useful for templates to indicate that any necessary credentials have already been configured within the template itself, making it easier for users to get started without immediate credential setup.\n\nNow, onto the actual logic within the workflow, which in this case is quite simple: a single trigger node.\nI need a node that starts the workflow at a pre-defined time or interval. The clear choice here is a **Schedule Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is `1.2`. This is the perfect node to kick off workflows based on time.\n\nFor its configuration, the JSON shows `parameters: {rule: {interval: [{}]}}`. This is interesting. It indicates that while it *is* a Schedule Trigger node, the actual schedule rule isn't fully defined yet. There's no specific interval like \"every 5 minutes\" or \"daily at 9 AM.\" It's essentially a placeholder, ready to be configured. This makes perfect sense given the workflow's `active: false` state. You wouldn't typically have an active workflow with an undefined schedule like this. It's a good base for someone to then define their specific schedule later. Its `name` is simply \"Schedule Trigger,\" which is the default name for this node type.\n\nSince this workflow only contains a single trigger node and nothing else, there are no connections to discuss. It simply acts as the entry point, waiting for its (currently undefined) schedule to be met to start execution, if the workflow were active." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers on a webhook, retrieves the content of a Google Doc, and responds to the webhook with the Google Doc's content as text.

Its type would be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the JSON tells me the `typeVersion` is `2`. This is the standard way to initiate a workflow when an external system sends data to a specific URL. It's perfect for what we need here.\n* When configuring it, I'd look at its parameters. The `path` parameter is where I'd define a unique endpoint for this webhook; the JSON shows a specific ID there. That ID forms part of the URL that external systems will call to trigger this workflow.\n* Crucially, for the `responseMode`, I see `responseNode` in the JSON. This is important because it means this Webhook node itself won't immediately send a response. Instead, it will pass the control to another node later in the workflow to handle the response, which gives us much more flexibility. This is exactly what the prompt implies by saying \"responds to the webhook with the Google Doc's content.\"\n* The `options` are empty, so no special configurations like custom headers or authentication are set on the webhook itself for now.\n\nNow that the workflow can be triggered, the next requirement is to \"retrieve the content of a Google Doc.\" This immediately tells me I need an integration with Google Docs.\n\n* So, I'd add a `Google Docs` node. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion` `2`. This node is specifically designed for interacting with Google Docs files, whether it's reading, writing, or updating.\n* I'd connect the `Webhook` node's main output directly to the input of this `Google Docs` node. The webhook just serves as the trigger; its output isn't directly consumed by the Google Docs node's operation, but it starts the flow.\n* For configuration, the `operation` parameter is key. The JSON indicates `get`, which makes perfect sense because we want to *retrieve* content.\n* Then, there's the `documentURL`. This is where I'd paste the link to the specific Google Doc I want to fetch. I'd ensure it's accessible.\n* Of course, to access Google Docs, I'd need credentials. The JSON shows `googleDocsOAuth2Api` configured, meaning a Google OAuth2 account credential would be provided here. This allows n8n to authenticate with Google's APIs on behalf of the workflow.\n\nFinally, the prompt states the workflow should \"respond to the webhook with the Google Doc's content as text.\" Since our initial `Webhook` node was set to `responseNode`, I need a dedicated node to handle the outgoing response.\n\n* This calls for a `Respond to Webhook` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and the `typeVersion` is `1.1` according to the JSON. This node is specifically for sending an HTTP response back to the caller of the initial webhook.\n* I'd connect the `Google Docs` node's main output to the input of this `Respond to Webhook` node. This is crucial because the `Google Docs` node will output the content we need for the response.\n* For its parameters, the `respondWith` setting is set to `text` in the JSON. This is exactly what we want, ensuring the response is plain text.\n* And then, the `responseBody`. This is where the magic happens. The JSON has `={{ $json.content }}`. This is an n8n expression. It tells the node to take the `content` property from the output of the *previous* node \u2013 which is our `Google Docs` node. When the `Google Docs` node successfully \"gets\" a document, it typically outputs its content in a field named `content`. So, this expression pulls that text and sends it directly back as the webhook response.\n* Again, `options` is empty, indicating no further special response headers or status codes are being explicitly set.\n\nOne last thing, the prompt mentioned tagging the workflow with \"Day5\", \"AI Onboarding\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding\". This isn't a node setting but a workflow-level organizational feature. I'd go into the workflow settings and apply those specific tags to ensure it's properly categorized and easy to find later. The JSON correctly reflects these tags already being applied." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a manual trigger, a \"Read Binary File\" node to read the `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json` file into a \"config\" property, and a \"Move Binary Data\" node to convert the \"config\" property to JSON with UTF-8 encoding.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [240, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"filePath\": \"\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json\", \"dataPropertyName\": \"config\"}, \"name\": \"Read Config File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [420, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {\"encoding\": \"utf8\"}, \"sourceKey\": \"config\"}, \"name\": \"Convert to JSON\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Read Config File\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Convert to JSON\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Read Config File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed.\n\nFirst off, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states a \"manual trigger.\" So, the very first node I'd place on the canvas would be a `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. Its purpose is exactly what it sounds like: it lets me manually kick off the workflow whenever I need to, typically by clicking a button in the n8n UI. It's simple, doesn't require any specific configuration parameters in its basic form, so `parameters: {}` is perfect. This node is `typeVersion: 1`, which is the current and standard version for this fundamental trigger. I'd give it a descriptive name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" to make it clear what it does.\n\nAlright, with the trigger in place, the next step, according to the prompt, is to read a file. Specifically, it mentions a \"Read Binary File\" node to read `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json` and store its content in a property named \"config\". So, the natural choice here is a `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile` node. I'd connect this directly from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node, as it's the very first action we want to perform once the workflow starts.\n\nWhen configuring this \"Read Config File\" node, I'd need to set its parameters. The `filePath` parameter is crucial, and I'd input `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json` exactly as specified. This tells the node which file to access. Additionally, the prompt explicitly says \"read... into a 'config' property.\" The `readBinaryFile` node has a `dataPropertyName` parameter precisely for this. So, I'd set `dataPropertyName` to \"config\". This ensures that the file's content isn't just passed as the main data but is attached as a binary property named \"config\" to the item flowing through the workflow. This is quite useful as it keeps the main item data separate and allows for more organized handling of multiple binary assets if needed. This node is also `typeVersion: 1`, a stable version for file operations.\n\nNow that the file is read and its content is available as a binary property named \"config,\" the next requirement is to convert this \"config\" property to JSON with UTF-8 encoding. The prompt directs me to use a \"Move Binary Data\" node for this conversion. While its name \"Move Binary Data\" might initially suggest just relocating data, the `n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData` node is incredibly versatile and can perform conversions from binary to other formats like JSON or plain text.\n\nI would connect this \"Convert to JSON\" node directly from the \"Read Config File\" node, as it needs to operate on the binary data output by the previous step. For its configuration:\n* The `sourceKey` parameter is essential. Since the previous \"Read Binary File\" node stored the file content in a binary property named \"config,\" I'd set `sourceKey` to \"config\". This tells the `moveBinaryData` node to specifically target that binary property for its operation.\n* To achieve the \"convert to JSON with UTF-8 encoding\" part, I'd delve into its `options` parameter. Within `options`, I'd set the `encoding` to \"utf8\". When no `targetKey` is specified, the `moveBinaryData` node intelligently attempts to parse the binary content (using the specified encoding) and convert it into the main data of the item. If the content is valid JSON, it will be parsed into a JSON object; otherwise, it will typically be converted into a string. In this case, since we're expecting a JSON file, this setup will correctly parse it into a JSON object, replacing the original item data with this parsed content. This node, like the others, is `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nSo, the flow makes perfect sense: Trigger the workflow, read the specific binary file into a named property, then take that named binary property and convert it into a structured JSON object for further use within the workflow, ensuring the correct encoding is applied during the conversion." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow to extract data from an image URL using the Mindee node. The workflow should trigger manually, download an image from a given URL, and then use the Mindee node to process it.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Mindee\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.mindee\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/miro.medium.com\/max\/1400\/0*1T9GkAb93w5NSMsf\", \"options\": {}, \"responseFormat\": \"file\"}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 340]}], \"connections\": {\"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Mindee\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants to pull data from an image URL using the Mindee node, starting with a manual trigger and downloading the image first. That sounds like a pretty straightforward sequence of steps.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a way to kick it off. Since the requirement is for the workflow to trigger manually, I'll definitely start with a trigger node that allows for that. So, I'll bring in the **Manual Trigger** node. This is of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is 1. It's perfect because it means the user can just click 'Execute Workflow' in the n8n interface whenever they want to run it. It doesn't need any specific parameters, it just sits there waiting for the user's command. I'll place it at the beginning of our workflow, let's say around position `[250, 340]`.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step in the user's request is to \"download an image from a given URL.\" For this, an **HTTP Request** node is the most fitting choice. It's versatile for fetching data from external URLs. So, I'll add an HTTP Request node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` and `typeVersion` 1. I'll connect it directly from the Manual Trigger node's 'main' output.\n\nNow, how to configure this HTTP Request node? The prompt states \"from a given URL.\" So, I'd need to specify that URL in the `url` parameter. For instance, a document URL would be configured here. The really critical part for this particular use case is how the response is handled. We're downloading an *image*, and we need the raw file content for the next step, not just a string. Therefore, I'll set the `responseFormat` parameter to `\"file\"`. This tells the HTTP Request node to treat the incoming data as a binary file and pass it on in a format suitable for file processing by subsequent nodes. The `options` parameter can remain empty for this simple download. I'll position it just after the trigger, around `[450, 340]`.\n\nWith the image downloaded as a file, the final piece of the puzzle is to \"use the Mindee node to process it.\" This is where the core data extraction happens. I'll add the **Mindee** node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.mindee` with `typeVersion` 1. This node is designed specifically to interact with the Mindee API.\n\nThe connection here is crucial: the Mindee node needs the image data that the HTTP Request node just downloaded. So, I'll connect the 'main' output of the HTTP Request node directly to the 'main' input of the Mindee node. This ensures the file data flows seamlessly from the download step to the processing step.\n\nFor the Mindee node's configuration, it needs credentials to authenticate with the Mindee API. The workflow JSON shows `mindeeReceiptApi: \"mindee\"`. This indicates that there's an existing Mindee credential entry named \"mindee\" that holds the necessary API key or authentication details. This would typically be a configured API key that grants access to the Mindee service. Beyond that, the parameters for the Mindee node itself are empty, meaning it's likely configured to use its default behavior for processing the incoming file, perhaps based on the type of document it expects to receive, which would be an image in this case. I'll place this node at `[650, 340]`, concluding the workflow's functional path." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that sends a daily Telegram reminder at 6 AM asking \"What did you do: YYYY-MM-DD\" where the date is for the previous day.

The user wants a daily Telegram reminder, specifically at 6 AM, asking \"What did you do: YYYY-MM-DD\" for the *previous* day. This gives me a clear idea of the components needed.\n\nFirst off, any workflow that needs to run at a specific time, on a recurring basis, absolutely needs a trigger. Looking at the prompt's requirement for a \"daily reminder at 6 AM,\" my mind immediately goes to a cron trigger. It's built for exactly this kind of scheduled execution. So, I'd start by adding a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.cron` with `typeVersion: 1`. I'd call it something descriptive like \"Morning reminder\" as it is in the JSON. The key configuration here is the `triggerTimes` parameter. To ensure it fires daily at 6 AM, I'd set it up with `hour: 6`. This is straightforward and ensures the workflow kicks off at the precise time needed every day. I also see `alwaysOutputData` is true, which is good practice for triggers to ensure there's always an item flowing, even if it's just a placeholder, which can be useful for subsequent nodes expecting *some* input.\n\nNext, after the workflow is triggered, I need to generate that specific message, especially the part with \"yesterday's date.\" This isn't something a standard node can just output directly, and it involves some date manipulation. For custom logic like this, a Function node is perfect. It allows me to write JavaScript code to perform calculations and transform data. So, I'd connect the \"Morning reminder\" node to a new node, which would be a `n8n-nodes-base.functionItem` with `typeVersion: 1`. I'd name it \"format reminder.\"\n\nInside this Function node, the `functionCode` is where the magic happens. The user wants yesterday's date.\nMy thought process for the code would be:\n1. Get the current date: `const today = new Date()`.\n2. Create a *new* Date object based on `today` so I don't modify `today` directly (though in this simple case, it wouldn't matter much): `const yesterday = new Date(today)`.\n3. Subtract one day from `yesterday`: `yesterday.setDate(yesterday.getDate() - 1)`. This is a very common way to manipulate dates in JavaScript.\n4. Then, format that `yesterday` date into the \"YYYY-MM-DD\" string. The `toISOString().split('T')[0]` trick is a quick and reliable way to get just the date part in ISO format. So, the message string becomes `const message = \\`What did you do: ${yesterday.toISOString().split('T')[0]}\\``.\n5. Finally, I need to ensure this `message` is accessible to the next node. The `return {message};` line does exactly that, packaging the `message` into an output item for the next node to consume.\n\nNow that the message is beautifully formatted, the last step is to send it via Telegram. n8n has a dedicated node for this, which is super convenient. So, I'd connect the \"format reminder\" node to a `n8n-nodes-base.telegram` node, also with `typeVersion: 1`. I'd give it a clear name like \"Send journal reminder.\"\n\nConfiguring this Telegram node is pretty straightforward.\n- The `text` field is where the actual message content goes. Since the \"format reminder\" node outputs the formatted message in its `json.message` field, I'd use an expression to pull that data: `={{$node[\"format reminder\"].json[\"message\"]}}`. This ensures the dynamically generated message is sent.\n- The `chatId` is crucial; it specifies *who* receives the message. This would be a specific chat ID, which the user would have configured. I see a value like \"666884239\" here, which would be the target chat.\n- And finally, `credentials` would be configured here. This is where the Telegram Bot Token and other API-related details are stored securely. I wouldn't specify the actual value, just note that this is where the necessary authentication for the Telegram bot would be linked. `additionalFields` is empty, indicating no other special Telegram options are needed, which is fine for a simple text message.\n\nAnd that completes the flow. The cron trigger starts it, the function node creates the custom message with the previous day's date, and the Telegram node sends it out. It's a clean, efficient three-node workflow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow JSON that fetches content from a specified Google Doc via webhook and returns it in the response.

So, the very first node I'll need is a trigger, and given the requirement, it clearly has to be a Webhook node.\n\nSo, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion` 2. This node is perfect because it allows the workflow to be activated by an external HTTP request, which is exactly what a \"webhook\" implies. For its configuration, I'll set up a specific path for it to listen on. This path acts like the endpoint URL where external systems will send their requests to trigger this workflow. The prompt also implies that the content needs to be returned *in the response*, so I'll make sure its `responseMode` parameter is set to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node that it won't be sending the response itself; instead, another node later in the workflow, specifically a \"Respond to Webhook\" node, will handle sending the HTTP response back. This is generally good practice for more complex workflows where the response isn't immediate or needs data processing first.\n\nNext, after the webhook receives a trigger, the workflow needs to fetch content from a Google Doc. This means the immediate successor to the Webhook node will be a Google Docs node. So, I'll connect the main output of the Webhook node to the input of a new node. This new node will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion` 2. This specific node type is chosen because it's designed to interact directly with Google Docs, allowing us to perform operations like reading, writing, or updating documents.\n\nFor the Google Docs node's configuration, the primary goal is to fetch content, so its `operation` parameter should definitely be set to `get`. This tells the node to retrieve the content of a document. I'd then need to specify *which* Google Doc to get content from. This is done by providing a document URL. Of course, the exact URL would be configured by the user, pointing to their specific Google Doc. Lastly, to access Google Docs, this node will require credentials. It would typically use an OAuth 2.0 connection to a Google account that has permission to access the specified document. This would be configured in the node's `credentials` section, generically as a \"Google Docs account\" credential.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that the fetched content needs to be returned in the response. Since we set the initial Webhook node to use a `responseNode`, the last step is to send that content back. So, I'll connect the main output of the Google Docs node to a \"Respond to Webhook\" node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion` 1.1. Its entire purpose is to construct and send the HTTP response back to the client that triggered the initial webhook.\n\nFor configuring the \"Respond to Webhook\" node, I want to ensure the actual document content is sent. So, I'll set its `respondWith` parameter to `text` because we're likely expecting plain text content from the Google Doc. Then, for the `responseBody`, I'll use an expression to pull the `content` field from the data output by the Google Docs node. The Google Docs node typically outputs the document's content in a field like `content`, so an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` would correctly grab that text and put it into the HTTP response body. This makes sure that whatever the Google Docs node fetches is precisely what's returned to the caller." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that listens for incoming Telegram events and sends back the JSON content of the message, effectively creating an echo bot for debugging purposes.

The goal is pretty clear: listen for any incoming Telegram event and send the raw JSON data of that event right back to the sender. This sounds like a great debugging tool.\n\nFirst off, I need a way to actually *receive* messages from Telegram. For any workflow that starts with an external event, I'll need a trigger node. Looking through the available nodes, the `Telegram Trigger` node is the obvious choice here. It's specifically designed to listen for incoming Telegram updates. So, I'll start by placing a `Telegram Trigger` node, of type `n8n-nodes-base.telegramTrigger` and `typeVersion 1`.\n\nWhen I configure this trigger, I need to make sure it catches *everything*. The prompt says \"incoming Telegram events,\" implying any type of update \u2013 messages, stickers, photos, voice notes, etc. To achieve this, I'll set its 'Updates' parameter to listen for all update types. The JSON shows `updates: [\"*\"]`, which is perfect; it means it will trigger on any kind of Telegram event. Naturally, this node will require Telegram API credentials to connect to my bot. That's a crucial setup step that a user would handle by providing their bot token.\n\nNow that I have the trigger set up to receive events, the next step is to *send back* the received JSON content. This means I'll need another Telegram node, but this time an action node to send a message. The `Telegram` node (not the trigger, but the general action node) is what I need. I'll add a `Telegram` node of type `n8n-nodes-base.telegram` with `typeVersion 1.1`.\n\nThis `Telegram` action node needs two main pieces of information: what to send, and where to send it.\nFor \"what to send,\" the requirement is the raw JSON content of the incoming message. The data from the `Telegram Trigger` node will be passed as a JSON object to this next node. So, to display that entire object as text, I'll use an expression. Specifically, `JSON.stringify($json, null, 2)` is excellent because it converts the entire incoming JSON object (`$json`) into a human-readable string, with a 2-space indentation for neat formatting. To make it even more readable for debugging, I'll wrap this stringified JSON in a Markdown code block (` ```\\n...\\n``` `). This way, it will appear as a nicely formatted code block in Telegram.\n\nFor \"where to send it,\" the message needs to go back to the original sender. The incoming JSON from the Telegram trigger typically contains the `chatId` or `from.id` of the sender. I can access this directly from the `$json` data. So, for the `chatId` parameter of the `Telegram` node, I'll use an expression like `{{ $json.message.from.id }}`. This dynamically ensures the echo goes back to whoever sent the original message.\n\nSince I'm using a Markdown code block in the text, I also need to tell Telegram to parse the message content as Markdown. This is done by adding an `additionalField` for `parse_mode` and setting its value to `Markdown`. Without this, the ` ``` ` wouldn't render as a code block.\n\nJust like the trigger node, this `Telegram` action node will also require Telegram API credentials. It should be the same set of credentials used for the trigger, linking both operations to the same bot.\n\nFinally, for the connections, it's pretty straightforward. The output of the `Listen for incoming events` (my `Telegram Trigger`) node needs to flow directly into the `Send back the JSON content of the message` (my `Telegram` action) node. A single `main` connection from the trigger to the action will pass all the necessary JSON data for processing.\n\nOne last thing, the prompt mentioned including a sticky note with setup instructions. This is a very good practice for any shared workflow. I'll add a `Sticky Note` node of type `n8n-nodes-base.stickyNote` and `typeVersion 1`. Its purpose is purely informational; it doesn't affect the workflow's execution. I'll put some clear, concise instructions there: reminders to add credentials to both Telegram nodes, activate the workflow, and explain what the bot does (listens for anything, sends back JSON). This helps anyone importing the workflow get it running quickly without needing a separate guide. Its position on the canvas is usually off to the side, near the relevant nodes, to make it easily discoverable but not interfere with the visual flow of connections." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON for a text classification process: Trigger on test, read data from a specific Google Sheet, and then classify the extracted text.

The user wants to set up a text classification process that kicks off manually, pulls data from a Google Sheet, and then classifies that text.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to start this whole process. The prompt mentions \"Trigger on test,\" which immediately tells me I'll need a manual trigger. Looking at the existing structure, I see a node named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\". That's perfect. This is an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node with `typeVersion 1`. It's suitable because it allows for immediate, on-demand execution of the workflow, which aligns perfectly with the \"Trigger on test\" requirement. I don't need any special configurations for this node; its purpose is simply to initiate the workflow when I click \"Test workflow\" in the editor.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"read data from a specific Google Sheet.\" This clearly points to a Google Sheets node. I'll connect this directly to my manual trigger. In the provided JSON, I see a node named \"Google Sheets\" with the type `n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets` and `typeVersion 4.5`. This is exactly what I need to interact with Google Sheets.\n\nNow, for configuring this Google Sheets node:\n* I'll need to specify which document to read from. The JSON indicates a `documentId` would be configured here, pointing to a specific spreadsheet.\n* Then, within that spreadsheet, I need to choose the `sheetName`. The JSON shows a configuration for this, too, likely specifying a particular tab or sheet within the document.\n* Crucially, to access the Google Sheet, credentials are required. The prompt specifically mentions \"phaplv@gfi\" credentials. So, in the Google Sheets node's configuration, I'd link it to the appropriate Google Sheets OAuth2 API credentials. This ensures the workflow has the necessary permissions to read from the specified sheet. Without these credentials, it simply wouldn't be able to access the data. The `options` here are currently empty, implying a default read operation, which is fine for simply extracting data.\n\nOnce the data is extracted from Google Sheets, the next logical step is to \"classify the extracted text.\" This means I'll need a classification node. Looking at the JSON, I see a \"Text Classifier\" node. Its type is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.textClassifier` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is ideal for AI-powered text classification tasks, which fits the requirement perfectly.\n\nI'll connect the Google Sheets node's main output to the Text Classifier node's main input. This connection means that the data retrieved from the Google Sheet\u2014likely a list of rows, each containing text\u2014will be passed as input to the Text Classifier.\n\nFor the Text Classifier node's configuration:\n* It has a `categories` parameter. This is where I would define the potential labels or categories that the text should be classified into. In a real scenario, I'd list out things like \"Sales Inquiry,\" \"Support Request,\" \"Feedback,\" etc., depending on the expected types of text. The current JSON shows an empty `categories` array, which means it's ready for me to define them.\n* There's also an `options` object, which includes a `systemPromptTemplate`. This is a really important part. It defines the instructions given to the underlying AI model (likely a large language model) on how to perform the classification. The current template instructs the model to classify text into the specified categories, use a specific JSON formatting, and avoid explanations. This level of detail in the prompt helps ensure consistent and predictable output from the AI.\n* The actual text to be classified would implicitly come from the incoming data from the Google Sheets node. While not explicitly an expression in the JSON snippet for the `parameters`, typically, I'd use an expression like `{{ $json.someColumnName }}` to point to the column containing the text I want to classify from the Google Sheets output. This ensures the text from each row is sent individually to the classifier.\n\nSo, the flow is:\n1. Manual Trigger kicks off the workflow.\n2. Google Sheets node reads data (rows) from the specified spreadsheet using the given credentials.\n3. Each row (or specifically the text column from each row) is then passed to the Text Classifier.\n4. The Text Classifier, guided by its prompt template and defined categories, processes the text and outputs the classification.\n\nThat seems to cover all the requirements and how each node and its configuration contribute to the overall goal." } { "prompt": "Create a n8n workflow with a manual trigger, followed by two Set nodes connected in sequence.

The prompt is pretty clear: a manual trigger, two Set nodes in sequence, and it needs to be inactive.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger.\" This is straightforward in n8n. I'd go for the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. It's designed exactly for this purpose\u2014to initiate the workflow when I manually click \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n UI. Looking at the provided JSON, it confirms this choice: `{\"parameters\": {}, \"id\": \"c30d1114-d7f7-44dc-b55a-15312ef2d76d\", \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 580]}`. The `typeVersion: 1` is the current standard for this node, and it doesn't typically require any specific parameters to function, so `parameters: {}` makes perfect sense. I'll place it nicely on the canvas, say at coordinates [600, 580], which is a good starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt states \"followed by two Set nodes connected in sequence.\" So, immediately after the manual trigger, I need to add a `Set` node. The `Set` node is incredibly versatile; it allows me to add, modify, or remove data fields as items pass through the workflow. For this specific requirement, the prompt doesn't specify *what* data to set, so I'll just add the node without any particular data configuration. The JSON shows the next node indeed is a Set node: `{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"id\": \"5bf514bd-65ae-4a1c-8b69-a01bfeaad411\", \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 580]}`. It's a `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 1`, and `parameters: {\"options\": {}}` indicates no specific fields are being manipulated, which is fine for this requirement.\n\nNow, how do I connect it? The `manualTrigger` will pass its output (which is usually an empty item to kick things off) to the `Set` node. I'd draw a connection from the `manualTrigger`'s `main` output to the `Set` node's `main` input. The `connections` section in the JSON confirms this: `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This ensures the execution flow moves from the trigger to the first `Set` node. I'll position it to the right of the trigger, perhaps at [820, 580], to keep things organized visually.\n\nFinally, the prompt requires \"two Set nodes.\" So, I need another `Set` node, connected directly after the first one. This is simply extending the sequence. I'd add another `n8n-nodes-base.set` node. Again, no specific data setting is required for this one either, just its presence to fulfill the requirement. The JSON confirms this as well: `{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"id\": \"02bf49e9-44b2-4f4e-46a7-94d3-25bd03dd4973\", \"name\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 580]}`. It's named \"Set1\" to differentiate it from the first \"Set\" node. It's also `typeVersion: 1` and has no active parameters.\n\nFor the connection, I'd link the first `Set` node's `main` output to this new \"Set1\" node's `main` input. This maintains the sequential flow of data and execution. The `connections` part of the JSON again confirms this: `\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. Visually, I'll place it further to the right, say at [1040, 580], maintaining the linear layout.\n\nOne last crucial detail: the prompt states, \"Configure the workflow to be inactive.\" This is a global setting for the entire workflow. When I'm saving or configuring the workflow, I'd make sure the \"Active\" toggle is set to `false`. Checking the workflow's root JSON, I see `\"active\": false`, which perfectly matches this requirement. This means when the workflow is imported or loaded into n8n, it won't be running until explicitly activated by the user.\n\nAnd that's it!

The prompt clearly states it \"triggers manually.\" Looking at the provided JSON, the very first node, positioned at `[250, 300]`, is named \"On clicking 'execute'\". Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is 1. This is perfect. A `manualTrigger` node is precisely what's needed for a workflow that starts when a user explicitly clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n interface. It doesn't require any specific parameters beyond its existence to function as a manual trigger, so its `parameters` object is empty, which makes sense. This will be our starting point.\n\nNow, what's the next step after the manual trigger? The prompt specifies that the workflow \"sends a simple email using Mailgun.\" This immediately tells me I'll need a Mailgun node. Looking at the JSON, indeed, the next node, positioned at `[450, 300]`, is named \"Mailgun\". Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.mailgun` and its `typeVersion` is 1. This is exactly the node we need to interact with the Mailgun API for sending emails.\n\nI'll connect the `manualTrigger` node to the `mailgun` node. The connection defined in the JSON shows `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Mailgun\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the output from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's `main` output will go directly into the \"Mailgun\" node's `main` input. This is a standard sequential flow \u2013 once the manual trigger fires, it passes control to the Mailgun node to perform its action.\n\nNow, let's configure this Mailgun node. It needs to send an email, so I'll go through its parameters:\n* The prompt states the body should be \"This is a test message \". The JSON's `parameters` confirm this with `\"text\": \"This is a test message \"`. This directly maps to the email body content.\n* The subject is \"This is a Subject\", and the JSON's `parameters` reflect this with `\"subject\": \"This is a Subject\"`.\n* For recipients and sender, the prompt specifies \"to user2@example.com from user@example.com\". The JSON correctly sets `\"toEmail\": \"user2@example.com\"` and `\"fromEmail\": \"user@example.com\"`. These parameters are crucial for defining who the email is sent to and who it appears to be from.\n* Finally, and very importantly, the prompt states \"Ensure Mailgun uses the 'mailgun-creds' credential.\" The JSON explicitly includes `\"credentials\": {\"mailgunApi\": \"mailgun-creds\"}`. This is where the Mailgun node will link to the pre-configured credentials in n8n. These credentials would typically contain the API key and domain information required for Mailgun to authenticate the sending request. Without these credentials, the Mailgun node wouldn't be able to communicate with the Mailgun service.

The prompt mentions two trigger nodes: a manual one and a schedule-based one.\n\nFirst, I'll add the manual trigger. This is useful for testing the workflow immediately or for situations where you want to kick it off on demand. So, I'd go for a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. Its name, \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", is pretty descriptive of its purpose. It doesn't really need any specific parameters, it just initiates the workflow when you click the \"Test workflow\" button in the n8n UI.\n\nNext, I also need a way for the workflow to run automatically at certain intervals, as requested. For that, I'll add a `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` node. Looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion 1.1`. This node is perfect for setting up recurring executions. The workflow JSON shows its name as \"Schedule Trigger\". To configure it, I'd set a cron expression in its `rule` parameter. In this specific case, it's set to `* * * * *`, which means it would run every minute. Of course, this would be adjusted based on how frequently the user actually needs the workflow to run, but for demonstration, every minute is fine.\n\nNow that I have my two trigger points, both of them need to lead to the next step, which is fetching the user data. So, both the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" (manual trigger) and the \"Schedule Trigger\" nodes will connect to the same subsequent node.\n\nThe prompt specifies fetching random user data using an HTTP Request node. So, the next logical step would be to add an `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` node. The `typeVersion` specified in the JSON is `4.1`. I'll call this node \"fetch 5 random users\" as per the provided JSON, which makes its function clear. For its configuration, the crucial part is the URL. This node will be configured with a URL endpoint, which in the JSON is `https:\/\/internal.users.n8n.cloud\/webhook\/random-data-api`. This would be the specific API endpoint that provides the random user data. No other complex options seem to be configured, suggesting a simple GET request is sufficient here. This node is responsible for making the actual network call to retrieve the data.\n\nAfter fetching the data, the prompt mentions manipulating it. Specifically, reversing the first name of the fetched users. This sounds like a job for a Code node, as it allows arbitrary JavaScript logic to be applied to the incoming data. So, following the HTTP Request node, I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.code` node. Its `typeVersion` is `2`. I'll name it \"do something with them\", mirroring the JSON.\n\nInside this Code node, the `jsCode` parameter is where the transformation logic lives. The code provided iterates through each item in the input data (which would be the users fetched by the HTTP Request node). For each `item`, it's accessing `item.json.firstname`. It then uses standard JavaScript string manipulation (`split('').reverse().join('')`) to reverse that first name. The original `item.json` is then overwritten with an object that contains both the original `firstName` and the `firstnNameReversed` value. It seems there's a slight typo in `firstnNameReversed` (an extra 'n'), which I would ideally correct if I were building it from scratch, but since I'm following the JSON, I'll note it as it is. Finally, the code returns the modified input items, passing them along to any subsequent nodes in the workflow. The data flows from the HTTP Request node into this Code node, where it gets processed and transformed before being output." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers manually and sends a private message via Zulip using the Zulip node.

It doesn't need any specific parameters to configure how it triggers, as it's just waiting for that manual click. Its `parameters` object is empty, which makes sense; there's nothing to set up for a simple manual start.\n\nNow that I have the trigger, the next step is to perform the action: \"sends a private message via Zulip using the Zulip node.\" This immediately tells me what the next node needs to be. I'll need a node that can interact with the Zulip API.\n\nBased on the prompt and the JSON, the logical next step is to add a `Zulip` node. This node is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.zulip` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This specific node type is ideal because n8n has a dedicated integration for Zulip, simplifying the process of sending messages without needing to construct raw HTTP requests. It abstracts away the API details, making it much easier to use.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The `manualTrigger` simply needs to pass its execution flow to the `Zulip` node. It doesn't really generate meaningful data for the Zulip node to use, but it does initiate the execution chain. Looking at the `connections` object in the JSON, I see `On clicking 'execute'` has a `main` output that connects to the `Zulip` node, also via its `main` input. This is standard; the output of the trigger simply flows into the input of the next node.\n\nNext, I need to think about configuring the `Zulip` node. The prompt specifically mentions \"sends a private message.\" For a Zulip message, I'd typically need to specify the recipient and the content of the message.\n\nThe JSON for the `Zulip` node shows `parameters: {\"to\": []}`. The `to` parameter is crucial for Zulip messages, as it determines who the message is sent to. Since it's an array, it implies that multiple recipients could potentially be specified for a private message (though for a single private message, it would typically contain one email address or user ID). To send a *private* message, the `Zulip` node would generally require setting the `messageType` parameter to \"private\" (or \"personal\") and then populating the `to` array with the recipient's identifier. The current JSON has an empty `to` array, which means as it stands, it's not configured to send *to* anyone specific for a private message. I would expect to fill this with the target user's email address or ID.\n\nFinally, the prompt also states, \"Ensure the workflow includes the necessary credentials for Zulip.\" The JSON confirms this by having `credentials: {\"zulipApi\": \"\"}` within the `Zulip` node definition. This is where the authentication details for connecting to the Zulip instance would be configured. Typically, this would involve providing things like the Zulip API key, the email of the bot user, and the Zulip server URL. The empty string for `zulipApi` indicates that a specific credential configuration would be selected or created here to authorize the Zulip node to send messages on behalf of a user or bot. I would make sure to select an existing Zulip API credential or create a new one with the appropriate API key and other details required to connect to the Zulip instance securely. The exact values, of course, would depend on the user's Zulip setup." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON for fetching content from a specific Google Docs document (\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1SWrpxi5jfVL79ftSA1u3PZL_wuzcfYFsA_5g02Kuet0\/view\") upon receiving a webhook and responding with the document's text content.

This immediately tells me I'll need a trigger node, a node to interact with Google Docs, and a node to send the response.\n\nI think I need to start by setting up the entry point for the workflow. Since the prompt specifies triggering \"upon receiving a webhook,\" the most appropriate node for this is the `Webhook` node. So, I'd add an `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node. The JSON indicates it's `typeVersion: 2`, which is a common and stable version for this node.\nFor its configuration, I know it needs a `path`. This is essentially the unique URL endpoint that an external system will call to initiate this workflow. I wouldn't specify the exact value here, as it's user-specific, but it's crucial for the webhook to be accessible.\nOne critical aspect for this workflow is how it responds. The prompt requires us to \"respond with the document's text content.\" This means I'll need to explicitly control the response later in the workflow. To allow for that, the `responseMode` parameter of the `Webhook` node must be set to `responseNode`. This tells the webhook to wait for a subsequent `Respond to Webhook` node to send the actual HTTP response, rather than just immediately responding with the output of the last node or a simple acknowledgement.\n\nNext, once the webhook triggers, the very next step should be to get the content from the Google Docs document. The prompt is very specific about \"fetching content from a specific Google Docs document.\" This clearly points to using a `Google Docs` node. I'd add an `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` node, and the JSON shows `typeVersion: 2`, which is suitable.\nThis `Google Docs` node needs to be connected directly to the `Webhook` node. The main output of the `Webhook` node should connect to the main input of the `Google Docs` node, ensuring that when the webhook is received, the Google Docs operation is the next step executed.\nFor its parameters, the `operation` needs to be set to `get`, because we want to retrieve or fetch the document's content. There would also be a `documentURL` parameter, where the specific URL of the Google Docs document would be provided. This is how the node knows which document to access.\nCrucially, to access Google Docs, this node requires authentication. The JSON indicates that `googleDocsOAuth2Api` credentials are used. This would be an OAuth 2.0 credential that has been pre-configured in n8n, allowing the workflow to securely access Google services on behalf of an authorized user. This is a standard and secure way to handle access to Google APIs.\n\nFinally, after the `Google Docs` node has successfully fetched the document's content, the workflow needs to \"respond with the document's text content\" back to the original caller of the webhook. Since I set the `responseMode` on the `Webhook` node to `responseNode`, I now need a dedicated node to handle this response.\nThe `Respond to Webhook` node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion: 1.1`, is perfect for this. It's designed to send an HTTP response back through the initial webhook trigger.\nThis node must be connected from the `Google Docs` node. The `Google Docs` node will output the fetched document data, which then needs to be passed to the `Respond to Webhook` node so it can use that data in its response. So, the main output of the `Google Docs` node connects to the main input of the `Respond to Webhook` node.\nFor the `Respond to Webhook` node's parameters:\nThe `respondWith` option should be set to `text`, as the prompt specifically asks for the \"document's text content.\" This ensures the response is delivered as plain text.\nThe `responseBody` parameter is where the actual content to be sent back is configured. Here, I'd use an n8n expression to pull the text content from the data output by the previous `Google Docs` node. The expression `={{ $json.content }}` is ideal because the `Google Docs` node, when performing a 'get' operation, typically outputs the document's textual content under a key named `content` in its JSON output. This expression correctly extracts that specific part of the data to form the response body." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Get Weather\" that uses an \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node followed by an \"Edit Fields\" node that sets a field called \"response\" to the string \"Weather is sunny\".\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get Weather\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [560, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"Weather is sunny\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, 340]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. My goal is to build something called \"Get Weather\" that starts with a specific trigger and then sets a piece of data.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a way to kick off. Looking at the requirements, it's explicitly asking for an \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node. This is a pretty standard way to start workflows that might be called from another workflow, manually executed, or triggered via a specific API endpoint. It's flexible and doesn't rely on schedules or webhooks in the traditional sense, so it's a great choice for something that needs to be invoked.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding the **Execute Workflow Trigger** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`.\n* And for the version, I'd use `typeVersion 1`. This version handles the basic execution trigger functionality perfectly for what we need here, acting as our entry point.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, what's next? The prompt states that we need to set a field called \"response\" to \"Weather is sunny\". To manipulate data items within a workflow, the \"Edit Fields\" node is exactly what's needed. In n8n's internal structure, this is represented by the `Set` node. It's designed specifically for adding new fields, modifying existing ones, or even removing them.\n\nSo, the next logical step is to connect the output of our \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" to an **Edit Fields** node.\n* This node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`.\n* The `typeVersion` specified is `3.4`. Different type versions can sometimes offer new features or slight behavioral changes, but for simply setting a field, this version will work perfectly fine.\n\nNow, let's think about the connection. The \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node will typically output an empty item or the item that triggered it, and we want to pass that item (or the flow of execution, in this case) directly to the \"Edit Fields\" node for processing. So, I'll connect the main output of the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" to the main input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This ensures that as soon as the workflow starts, control passes to the node responsible for setting our data.\n\nFinally, I need to configure the \"Edit Fields\" node. The prompt specifies setting a field named \"response\" with the value \"Weather is sunny\" as a string.\nInside the node's parameters, specifically under `assignments`, I'll add a new assignment.\n* For the `name` of the field, I'd input \"response\".\n* For the `value`, I'd type in \"Weather is sunny\".\n* And importantly, I'd set the `type` of this value to \"string\" to ensure it's treated as plain text. This is a straightforward configuration, as the node's purpose is to simply apply these field modifications to the items it receives.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it! The workflow starts when executed, then immediately sets the desired response data." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON representation of an n8n workflow named \"My workflow\" that includes a Schedule Trigger, and two Set nodes, all configured with basic settings.

My goal here is to create an n8n workflow named \"My workflow\" that's kicked off by a schedule, and then performs a couple of data manipulation steps using Set nodes. I also need to make sure the connections are in place and there's some sample data showing what the trigger would output.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the requirements, it explicitly asks for a \"Schedule Trigger.\" This is perfect for anything that needs to run regularly, like every hour, day, or week. So, I'll begin by adding a **Schedule Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This specific version handles how scheduled events are defined and passed on.\n\nFor its configuration, the JSON shows `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This indicates that it's set up to run on an interval, although the specific timing (like every 5 minutes or once a day) isn't detailed in the configuration itself, it's just set to *an* interval. If I were setting this up for real, I'd typically configure `interval` with specific `value` and `unit` properties, for instance, to run every hour. But for now, this basic structure fulfills the requirement of a configured Schedule Trigger.\n\nNow, about the data this trigger puts out. The `pinData` section is really helpful here; it shows what kind of sample input would be generated by this \"Schedule Trigger\" node. It includes two example items: one with `count: 0`, and others like `with space`, `with.dot`, and `with\"quotes`, and another item with `count: 1`. This sample data is crucial for testing the downstream nodes, letting me see how they'd process realistic input from the schedule trigger.\n\nAfter the trigger fires, what's next? The prompt asks for \"two Set nodes.\" A **Set** node is incredibly versatile. I'd use it whenever I need to add new fields to the data, modify existing ones, or even remove some. It's great for enriching or reshaping the data as it flows through the workflow.\n\nSo, I'll add my first **Set** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and it's using `typeVersion: 3.3`. This version typically brings enhancements to how assignments and expressions are handled, making it more robust.\n\nI need to connect this first Set node to the Schedule Trigger. The connection will be from the Schedule Trigger's `main` output to the Set node's `main` input. This means all the data output by the Schedule Trigger (including that sample `pinData` we discussed) will flow directly into this Set node for processing.\n\nFor the configuration of this first Set node, it shows `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"2b0f25a2-9483-4579-9f6d-91b7ac2fcb71\", \"name\": \"other\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}}`. This means it's adding a new field named \"other\" to each incoming item and setting its value to an empty string. It's a basic operation, but it demonstrates how to introduce new data points.\n\nAnd then, the requirements specify *two* Set nodes. So, naturally, I'll add a second **Set** node. Again, it will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.3`, consistent with the previous one. There's no specific instruction for this second one to do anything different, so its configuration also shows setting a field named \"other\" to an empty string, just like the first one. In a real-world scenario, this second Set node would likely perform a *different* data transformation, perhaps setting a different field, or modifying the \"other\" field further based on some logic. But for this specific design, it's a simple duplication of the action.\n\nThe connection for this second Set node will come from the first Set node's `main` output, flowing into its `main` input. This ensures the data modified by the first Set node is then passed on to the second one for further processing. This sequential flow is fundamental to how data moves through n8n workflows.\n\nFinally, I'll just note that the workflow itself is currently `active: false`, meaning it's not enabled to run automatically. This is typical for workflows under development or not yet deployed. The other metadata like `settings`, `versionId`, `id`, `meta`, and `tags` are just standard properties for n8n to manage and identify the workflow internally." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that schedules the restart of a WAHA instance every midnight.

Looking at the prompt and the provided JSON, it's clear a scheduling mechanism is required. So, I'll start with a trigger node.\n\nThe most suitable node for this is the `Schedule Trigger` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` and the version specified is `1.2`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to initiate a workflow execution based on a predefined schedule, whether that's an interval, a specific time, or a cron expression.\n\nWhen configuring this `Schedule Trigger` node, the goal is \"every midnight.\" Now, looking at the provided JSON, the `parameters` for the `rule` are set to `{\"interval\": [{}]}`. This configuration, as shown, doesn't actually define a midnight schedule; it implies an interval-based trigger, but the specific interval isn't set within the empty object. For a true \"every midnight\" schedule, I would typically configure this node using a cron expression like `0 0 * * *` (representing 0 minutes, 0 hours, every day of the month, every month, every day of the week), or setting a specific time of day mode. However, following the JSON, the current setting is for an interval, and it's currently undefined within the array. If I were building this from scratch and aiming for \"midnight,\" I'd definitely choose the \"Exact Time\" mode and set it to 00:00, or use a cron expression. But for now, I'm noting the JSON's `interval: [{}]` configuration and its typeVersion `1.2`. I'll name this node \"Schedule Trigger\" as per the JSON.\n\nOnce the schedule trigger fires, the next step is to interact with the WAHA instance. The user prompt specifically mentions using \"the WAHA node\" and the action is to \"stop the Observability resource.\" This indicates I'll need a custom node for WAHA operations.\n\nSo, the next node to add would be the `WAHA` node. Its type is `@devlikeapro\/n8n-nodes-waha.WAHA` and it uses `typeVersion 202409`. This is a specialized node designed to communicate with a WAHA API, which is exactly what's needed for managing a WAHA instance.\n\nNow, for its configuration. The prompt says \"restart of a WAHA instance\" and \"Use the WAHA node to stop the Observability resource.\" The JSON parameters for this node are `{\"resource\": \"Observability\", \"operation\": \"Stop\"}`. This aligns with the prompt's request to \"stop the Observability resource.\" It's important to note that while the user prompt mentions \"restart,\" the concrete operation defined in the JSON is \"Stop.\" If a full \"restart\" (meaning stop *and then* start) were desired, another WAHA node configured with an \"Start\" operation would be chained after this \"Stop\" operation, possibly with a small delay in between. But based on the provided JSON, only the \"Stop\" operation for the \"Observability\" resource is performed. I'll name this node \"Restart WAHA\" as per the JSON, acknowledging that its name implies a restart, but its action is a stop.\n\nThis `WAHA` node will also require credentials to connect to the WAHA API. This would be configured in the `credentials` field, typically referencing a predefined credential asset, like `wahaApi` in this case. The specific ID and name are internal identifiers and would be unique to the user's n8n instance, but the important part is that an API key or connection details would be provided here to authenticate with the WAHA service.\n\nFinally, regarding connections, the `Schedule Trigger` node's main output should connect to the `WAHA` node's main input. This ensures that every time the schedule fires, it triggers the WAHA operation. It's a straightforward, linear flow: schedule fires, then perform the WAHA action. The data passed between these two nodes is simply the trigger event itself, which signals the WAHA node to execute its configured operation. There's no complex data transformation needed in between." } { "prompt": "Generate a n8n workflow with a \"n8n Form Trigger\" node connected to a \"Switch\" node, using the provided configurations and example form submission data.

My goal here is to create a workflow that starts with a form submission and then routes that data based on some conditions, even if those conditions aren't fully defined yet in the `Switch` node.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way for the workflow to *start*. The prompt specifies a \"n8n Form Trigger\" node, so that's clearly my entry point. It's perfect for when I want to kick off a workflow based on someone filling out a form.\n\nSo, I'll add an \"n8n Form Trigger\" node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger` and `typeVersion` is 2. This node will effectively create a web form that users can submit, and each submission will trigger an execution of this workflow.\n\nNow, how should I configure this form trigger? Looking at the parameters, I see a `path` property: \"d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a\". This is essentially a unique identifier that forms part of the URL for the generated form. It ensures that this specific form submission triggers *this* workflow. I'll need to set that up.\n\nNext, the `formTitle` is \"test\". That's straightforward; it'll be the title displayed on the form itself.\n\nCrucially, the form needs fields for input. The `formFields` section has a `values` array, and inside it, there's `{\"fieldLabel\": \"test\"}`. This means the form will have a single input field, and its label will simply be \"test\". This matches the user's prompt about the form having a field named \"test\". This is how the user will provide data that the workflow will then process.\n\nThe `options` are empty, which means no special settings like custom success messages or redirect URLs are configured for the form itself right now.\n\nNow, once the form is submitted, what happens to the data? The `pinData` section in the overall workflow JSON shows example data that this \"n8n Form Trigger\" node *would* output: `[{\"json\": {\"name\": \"First item\", \"code\": 1}}, {\"json\": {\"name\": \"Second item\", \"code\": 2}}]`. This isn't part of the node's configuration but rather example output data, illustrating what a submission might look like, or perhaps what was used during a test run. In a real scenario, after a user submits the form with data for the \"test\" field, that submitted data would be what gets passed to the next node. The prompt also mentioned \"example form submission data\", and this `pinData` aligns with that.\n\nOkay, so the trigger is set up. What's the next logical step according to the plan? The connections clearly show that the \"n8n Form Trigger\" connects its `main` output to the \"Switch\" node.\n\nSo, I'll add a \"Switch\" node. This node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.switch` and `typeVersion` is 2. A Switch node is incredibly useful for conditional routing. It lets me evaluate an input value and send the workflow down different paths based on whether that value matches specific conditions. For example, if the \"test\" field submitted by the form had a certain value, I could route it one way, and if it had another value, route it a different way.\n\nLooking at the \"Switch\" node's `parameters` in the JSON, it's an empty object `{}`. This is interesting. It means that while the node is present and connected, no specific conditions (like `if value equals \"X\" then path 1`) have been defined for it yet. If I were actively building this, I'd know I'd need to go into the Switch node's settings and add rules based on the \"test\" field's value that comes from the form trigger. For instance, I might add a condition like \"If `data.json.test` is 'approve', go down branch 0; else, go down branch 1\". But for now, as per the JSON, it's just the node itself, ready for conditions to be added.\n\nThe connection from the \"n8n Form Trigger\" to the \"Switch\" node means that whatever data comes out of the form trigger (e.g., the submitted value for the \"test\" field), that data will be passed directly as input to the Switch node. The Switch node will then use this input to evaluate its conditions (once configured).\n\nFinally, an important detail: the workflow's `active` status is `false`. This means that even with the nodes configured and connected, the form won't be live and won't trigger anything until I manually activate the workflow. This is a good safety measure during development." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers on Github pushes and pull request openings, then triggers a TravisCI build if either event occurs.

Since the prompt specifies Github pushes and pull request openings, the most appropriate node to begin with is a **Github Trigger** node. This is of type `n8n-nodes-base.githubTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is 1. I'd place this at the start of my workflow, perhaps around coordinates [450, 300] to give myself room.\n\nFor the Github Trigger, I'd configure it to listen for the specific events mentioned. The prompt clearly states \"pushes and pull request openings.\" So, in the node's parameters, under 'Events', I would select both `push` and `pull_request`. I'd also need to specify the `owner` and `repository` that this trigger should monitor \u2013 for example, here it's configured for 'n8n-io' and 'n8n'. Authentication would be set up via an OAuth2 credential, allowing n8n to securely connect to Github. A unique `webhookId` would also be generated by n8n for this specific trigger instance, which Github would then use to send events.\n\nNext, the prompt states, \"then triggers a TravisCI build *if either event occurs. Otherwise, do nothing.*\" This implies a conditional branching. Not *every* Github event, but specifically pushes *or* pull request *openings* should lead to a TravisCI build. So, after the Github Trigger, I need to add an **IF** node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.if` and `typeVersion` 1. I'd connect the main output of the Github Trigger to the input of this IF node.\n\nNow, for the IF node's logic. We need to check two conditions, and if *either* is true, we proceed with the TravisCI build. This means the `combineOperation` should be set to 'any'.\n* **Condition 1: Is it a push event?** When Github sends a webhook, the event type is often indicated in the `x-github-event` header. So, I would check if the value of `={{$json[\"headers\"][\"x-github-event\"]}}` (which pulls the header from the incoming data) is equal to 'push'.\n* **Condition 2: Is it a pull request *opening* event?** For pull request events, Github includes an `action` field in the body of the payload. We only care if the pull request was `opened`. So, I would add a second condition checking if the value of `={{$json[\"body\"][\"action\"]}}` is equal to 'opened'.\n\nIf either of these conditions (a push or an opened pull request) evaluates to true, we want to trigger a TravisCI build. So, from the 'true' output of the IF node, I'll connect to a **TravisCI** node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.travisCi` and its `typeVersion` is 1. I'd place it to the right of the IF node, perhaps slightly above the IF node's central position at [850, 200] to distinguish the 'true' branch.\n\nWithin the TravisCI node, I need to configure which repository to build and what operation to perform. The `operation` should be 'trigger' to initiate a new build. For the `slug`, which identifies the repository on TravisCI, I can dynamically pull this from the Github payload. The Github webhook typically includes the full name of the repository in the `body.repository.full_name` field. So, the slug would be set using an expression like `={{$json[\"body\"][\"repository\"][\"full_name\"]}}`. The `branch` could also be dynamically set if needed, but for simplicity, or if it's always the default branch, it might be left empty or set to a specific value. Credentials for TravisCI API access would also be provided here, configured in a generic way.\n\nFinally, the prompt says, \"Otherwise, do nothing.\" If the conditions in the IF node are *not* met (meaning it's a Github event that isn't a push and isn't an *opened* pull request, e.g., a closed pull request or a comment), we want the workflow to gracefully end on that branch without performing any action. For this, I'd connect the 'false' output of the IF node to a **NoOp** node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.noOp` and `typeVersion` 1. It simply receives data and does nothing with it, effectively serving as a graceful termination point for that path of the workflow. I'd place this below the TravisCI node, at around [850, 400], aligning with the 'false' path from the IF node." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON that triggers manually, edits fields, uses an IF node to check if the profile name contains \"an\", and then sets a \"True\" or \"False\" node based on the outcome.

So, the very first node I need is going to be a manual trigger. Looking at the n8n nodes, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1` is the perfect fit for this. This node allows me to initiate the workflow execution simply by clicking a button in the n8n UI, which directly addresses the \"triggers manually\" requirement. It's really useful for testing or for workflows that aren't tied to a specific schedule or external event.\n\nA crucial part of the request is to \"include relevant example data in the `pinData` section, particularly within the 'When clicking \\'Execute workflow\\'' node, showcasing diverse user profiles.\" This `manualTrigger` node allows me to pre-load data into its output for testing. So, I'll populate its `pinData` with various JSON objects, each representing a user profile. I'll make sure these profiles have a `profile.name` field, as that's what we'll be checking later. It's good to have a mix, some with \"an\" in the name and some without, to thoroughly test the conditional logic. For example, \"Reese Hahn\" has \"an\", \"Jeanne Boyd\" doesn't, \"Roslyn Underwood\" does, and so on. This ensures our test cases are diverse.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions \"edits fields.\" While the provided JSON for the \"Edit Fields\" node (`n8n-nodes-base.set`, `typeVersion: 3.2`) doesn't actually configure any specific field edits, it's included in the workflow structure. It's positioned right after the manual trigger. So, I'd add this node here. In a real scenario, if I needed to add, remove, or modify data fields coming from the trigger, this `Set` node would be exactly where I'd do it. For instance, I might want to add a timestamp, or concatenate some fields, or even normalize data before further processing. Since the parameters are empty, it essentially acts as a passthrough for the data for now, but its presence signals an intention for potential data manipulation.\n\nAfter that, the core logic is an \"IF node to check if the profile name contains 'an'\". For this, an `n8n-nodes-base.if` node with `typeVersion: 1` is precisely what's needed. This node allows us to create branching logic based on conditions. The data from the \"Edit Fields\" (which received it from the trigger) will flow into this IF node.\n\nNow, how to configure the condition? The request is to check if the `profile name` *contains* \"an\". So, within the IF node's parameters, I'll set up a `string` condition. The `value1` will be an expression that accesses the profile name from the incoming data. That would be `={{ $json.profile.name }}`. The `operation` will be `contains`, and `value2` will simply be \"an\". This setup ensures that for each incoming item, the workflow checks if the user's name has the substring \"an\" in it.\n\nFinally, based on the outcome of that IF node, we need to \"set a 'True' or 'False' node.\" This means if the condition is met (the name contains \"an\"), the data should go to one path, and if not, to another. So, I'll add two more `n8n-nodes-base.set` nodes, both with `typeVersion: 3.2`. I'll name one \"True\" and the other \"False\" to clearly indicate their purpose.\n\nFor the connections:\n* The `manualTrigger` node's main output should connect to the `Edit Fields` node's main input. This ensures the initial data flows correctly.\n* Then, the `Edit Fields` node's main output connects to the `IF` node's main input.\n* The `IF` node has two output branches: one for true and one for false. I'll connect the `IF` node's true output to the \"True\" `Set` node.\n* And, I'll connect the `IF` node's false output to the \"False\" `Set` node.\n\nThese \"True\" and \"False\" `Set` nodes, even if empty in terms of parameters, serve as clear indicators of the workflow's path taken. In a more complex workflow, I might use them to add a `status` field like `profileContainsAn: true` or `profileContainsAn: false`, or trigger subsequent actions based on the outcome. But for this specific request, just having them as endpoint nodes for the branches is sufficient to demonstrate the logic." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that, when triggered, outputs the current date in YYYY-MM-DD format as a JSON object.

Looking at the prompt and the JSON, it doesn't specify a `Webhook` or `Schedule` trigger, which are common. Instead, the JSON uses something quite specific.\n\n* **Node 1: The Trigger**\n * **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`\n * **Type Version:** 1.1\n * **Node Name:** \"When Executed by Another Workflow\"\n * **Parameters:** `{\"inputSource\": \"passthrough\"}`\n * **My thought process:** Okay, so I need a trigger. The provided JSON immediately tells me this workflow isn't meant to be started by an external HTTP request or on a timed schedule. No, this `executeWorkflowTrigger` means this workflow is designed to be called directly *from another n8n workflow*. This is really useful for building modular workflows, where one workflow can perform a specific task (like getting the current date) and then return the result to a parent workflow.\n * The `inputSource` parameter set to `passthrough` indicates that any data received by this trigger node from the calling workflow will simply be passed along to the next node in *this* workflow. For this specific use case, where the next node generates its own data (the date), it might not be strictly necessary to pass input data, but it's a good default if the workflow were to potentially operate on inputs from its caller. So, this node is simply waiting to be invoked.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, I need to do the actual work of getting and formatting the date. The prompt specifically asks for a \"code node,\" and that's exactly what the JSON uses. This is a great choice for custom logic like date manipulation.\n\n* **Node 2: The Date Formatting Logic**\n * **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.code`\n * **Type Version:** 1\n * **Node Name:** \"Set Today\"\n * **Parameters:** This node will contain the core JavaScript code within its `jsCode` parameter.\n * **My thought process:**\n * Right, after the trigger, the flow needs to hit a node that can calculate and format the date. A `Code` node is perfect for this; it lets me write arbitrary JavaScript.\n * Inside this node, the first step is to get the current date and time. `const date = new Date();` is the standard way to do that in JavaScript. This gives me a `Date` object representing the moment the code runs.\n * Next, I need to extract the year, month, and day components.\n * `date.getFullYear()` will give me the four-digit year, which is straightforward.\n * For the month, `date.getMonth()` returns a zero-indexed value (0 for January, 1 for February, etc.). So, I'll need to add 1 to it: `date.getMonth() + 1`.\n * For the day, `date.getDate()` gives me the day of the month.\n * Now, the critical part: formatting to YYYY-MM-DD. This means both month and day need to be two digits, so if it's January (1) or the 5th day (5), it should appear as `01` or `05`. JavaScript's `padStart()` method is ideal for this. I'll convert the month and day to strings first and then `padStart(2, '0')` to ensure they always have two digits, adding a leading '0' if necessary.\n * Finally, I'll assemble these parts into the desired string using a template literal: `` `${year}-${month}-${day}` ``. I'll store this formatted date string in a variable, say `today`.\n * The prompt also asks for the output as a JSON object. In an n8n `Code` node, you typically return an array of objects. To get the specified JSON structure, I'll return `[{ json: { today: todayStringVariable } }]`. This will create an item in the output where the `json` property contains an object with a key `today` and its value being my formatted date string. This fits the requirement perfectly.\n\n* **Connecting the Nodes:**\n * The `main` output of the \"When Executed by Another Workflow\" node will connect to the `main` input of the \"Set Today\" node.\n * This connection ensures that as soon as the workflow is triggered (by being called from another workflow), the execution flow immediately moves to the `Code` node to generate the date.\n\nThat's the entire thought process for building this specific workflow based on the provided JSON and requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers manually, then uses a debug helper to access random data, filters the data based on whether the email contains a period, and if so, sends a Telegram message.

This sounds like a pretty straightforward sequence.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick this whole thing off. The prompt specifically asks for a *manual trigger*. So, naturally, I'll start by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. This is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. It's perfect because it lets me initiate the workflow whenever I click \"Test workflow\" or execute it manually from the UI, which aligns perfectly with the requirement. There are no specific parameters to configure for this node, it just sits there, waiting for a click.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step is to \"access random data\". For testing and development, or just to get some synthetic data into the workflow, the **Debug Helper** node is super useful. So, I'll connect the output of my Manual Trigger node to a **Debug Helper** node. This node is `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper` with `typeVersion 1`. Looking at the parameters, I see it's configured with `category: \"randomData\"`. This is exactly what I need! The `DebugHelper` node, when set to `randomData`, will output a list of items, each containing various fields like `name`, `email`, `address`, etc., which is perfect for simulating real data for my filtering step.\n\nNow that I have some random data, the core logic is to \"filter the data based on whether the email contains a period\". This screams for a **Filter** node. So, I'll connect the output from the Debug Helper to a **Filter** node. This node is `n8n-nodes-base.filter` with `typeVersion 2`. Let's think about how to configure it. I need to check the `email` field, and specifically, if it \"contains\" a period.\nLooking at the node's parameters, I see `conditions` are set up.\n* The `leftValue` is `={{ $json.email }}`. This is correct \u2013 I want to evaluate the `email` property of each incoming item from the Debug Helper.\n* The `rightValue` is `.` (a period). This is what I'm looking to find within the email string.\n* And critically, the `operator` is specified as `{\"type\": \"string\", \"operation\": \"contains\"}`. This is exactly the \"contains\" logic required by the prompt.\n* `caseSensitive` is set to `true`, though for a period character, this usually doesn't make a practical difference.\nSo, any data item coming from the Debug Helper that has an `email` field containing a period will pass through this filter node. Items that don't meet this condition will be dropped, or sent to the 'false' branch if I were to configure one, but in this case, it just drops them from the main flow.\n\nFinally, \"if so, sends a Telegram message\". This means that only the items that successfully pass the filter should trigger a Telegram message. So, I'll connect the main output of the Filter node to a **Telegram** node. This is `n8n-nodes-base.telegram` with `typeVersion 1.1`. To configure this, I would need to set up credentials for my Telegram bot, but for the node's parameters themselves:\n* I see `chatId` is set to `123123`. This would be a placeholder for the actual Telegram chat ID where the message should be sent. In a real-world scenario, I'd replace this with the specific chat ID of my recipient or group.\n* The `text` field is `1123123`. This is also a placeholder for the message content. Ideally, I'd want to make this dynamic, perhaps something like `{{ $json.email }} found with a period!` to actually convey useful information from the filtered data. But for now, a static string works for the structure.\nThis node will take the filtered data and send a message for each item that passed.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It starts manually, generates test data, filters it, and sends notifications for qualifying items.

This node is perfect because it allows the workflow to start when someone submits data through a web form, which is exactly what the prompt asks for.\n* Now, how to configure it? The prompt specifies \"collecting a single text field labeled 'test'\". Looking at the JSON, I see `formFields` is set up with `{\"values\": [{\"fieldLabel\": \"test\"}]}`. So, I'd configure the form to have just one input field, and its visible label to the user would be \"test\".\n* The `formTitle` parameter in the JSON is also \"test\". This would be the title displayed at the top of the form when a user accesses its URL.\n* There's also a `path` (or `webhookId`) like `d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a`. This is the unique part of the URL where the form would be accessible. It's automatically generated when the node is added and saved.\n* Crucially, the prompt also asks to \"Populate the Form Trigger node with two example outputs: one with `{\"name\": \"First item\", \"code\": 1}` and another with `{\"name\": \"Second item\", \"code\": 2}`.\" The `pinData` section in the JSON directly provides these. These example outputs are really useful for testing the workflow downstream without having to submit the form repeatedly. They define what the data would look like coming out of this node during a test run, simulating the input it would receive. It's interesting because the form itself collects a field named \"test\", but the example outputs have \"name\" and \"code\" fields. This means for testing purposes, we're simulating a specific data structure that might either be transformed *from* the \"test\" field later, or represents the ultimate structure we expect for downstream nodes, independent of the raw form input. For now, I'll just ensure these example outputs are set exactly as specified in the `pinData`.\n\nNext, the prompt says this trigger needs to be \"connected to a Switch node.\"\n* So, my second node will be a **Switch** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.switch`, and the JSON indicates `typeVersion: 2`. This node is ideal for routing workflow execution down different paths based on certain conditions.

This tells me that while the node is present, its actual switching logic (e.g., \"if the 'code' field from the previous node is 1, go this way; if it's 2, go that way\") isn't yet configured. If I were fully building this, I'd then go into its settings and define rules based on an expression, probably using the `code` field from the data coming out of the Form Trigger, like `{{ $json.code }}`. But for now, just placing it as specified is enough.\n\nFinally, the connection. The `connections` section confirms my thought: the `n8n Form Trigger`'s main output should connect to the `Switch` node's main input. This ensures that any data submitted via the form, or the example data, flows directly into the Switch node for processing." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers manually and fetches all data from a Shopify store using the Shopify API credentials named \"shopify_creds\".\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [230, 310]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\"}, \"name\": \"Shopify\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.shopify\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [430, 310]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Shopify\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed.

This means that when the node runs, it will automatically use the API key, store URL, or other authentication details associated with that named credential in n8n. I wouldn't specify the actual API key here, of course, just link to the pre-configured credential set.\n* Then, for the actual operation, the prompt says \"fetches all data.\" Looking at the JSON, the `operation` parameter is set to `'getAll'`. This seems to align perfectly with the requirement to retrieve all available data. Typically, with a Shopify node, you'd also select a specific resource like \"Products,\" \"Orders,\" or \"Customers\" before choosing an operation like \"getAll.\" However, since the `parameters` block only shows `{\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\"}`, it implies that either the 'getAll' operation itself is general enough to cover multiple resource types by default, or it expects the resource type to be implicitly handled or selected elsewhere in the UI. For now, I'll configure it as specified, focusing on the `getAll` operation. The `options` object is empty, indicating no further filters or specific settings are being applied to this \"get all\" operation, so it's a broad fetch.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The flow is linear: the manual trigger should initiate the Shopify data fetch. So, I'll create a connection from the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (Manual Trigger) node to the `main` input of the \"Shopify\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, it passes control directly to the Shopify node, allowing it to start fetching data. The data flow here is straightforward; the trigger essentially just sends an empty item to kick off the next node, which then performs its operation independently." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object representing an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFileDataanalysis\" that triggers on a webhook, retrieves content from a specified Google Docs document, and responds to the webhook with the document's content.

Plus, there's some metadata like tags and timestamps to include.\n\nSo, first things first, every workflow needs a trigger. Since the prompt specifically states \"triggers on a webhook,\" my immediate thought is to start with a Webhook node.\n\n1. **Webhook Node (Trigger)**\n * I'll add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is the standard node for listening for incoming HTTP requests.\n * I need to configure its `parameters`. The most important one here is the `path`. This is like the unique address for our webhook. I'd set it to something distinct, but of course, the actual value would be user-defined.\n * Another crucial parameter for this scenario is `responseMode`. I'll set this to `responseNode`. Why? Because we're not just immediately acknowledging the webhook; we need to perform an action (get content from Google Docs) *before* sending the final response. Setting it to `responseNode` tells the Webhook node to hold off on sending any response until a dedicated \"Respond to Webhook\" node comes along later in the workflow. This gives us the flexibility to process data.\n\n2. **Google Docs Node (Data Retrieval)**\n * After the webhook triggers, the next logical step, according to the prompt, is to \"retrieve content from a specified Google Docs document.\" This clearly points to the Google Docs node.\n * So, I'll connect the `Webhook` node's `main` output to a new `Google Docs` node's `main` input. This ensures that once the webhook fires, the workflow proceeds to fetch the document.\n * The node `type` would be `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion: 2`.\n * For its `parameters`, I need to tell it what to do. The `operation` should be set to `get`, because we're looking to retrieve information.\n * Then, there's the `documentURL` parameter. This is where I'd input the specific URL of the Google Docs document we want to pull content from. This value would be specific to the user's document.\n * Finally, this node will absolutely require `credentials`. For Google Docs, that means setting up an OAuth2 API credential. This allows n8n to securely authenticate with Google and access the user's documents. The credentials would be pre-configured in n8n and then selected for this node.\n\n3. **Respond to Webhook Node (Response)**\n * The final requirement is to \"respond to the webhook with the document's content.\" Since we configured the initial `Webhook` node to wait for a `responseNode`, this is where we'll send our data back.\n * I'll connect the `Google Docs` node's `main` output to a `Respond to Webhook` node's `main` input. This ensures that the content retrieved by the Google Docs node is passed along to the response node.\n * The node `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion: 1.1`.\n * Now, for its `parameters`:\n * `respondWith` needs to be set. Since we want to send the actual document content, `text` seems appropriate.\n * The `responseBody` is crucial here. I want to send the content from the Google Docs node. So, I'll use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression tells n8n to look at the data coming from the previous node (the `Google Docs` node) and use the value found in its `content` field as the body of the response. This is how we ensure the document's text is sent back.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the core logic of the workflow. Beyond the nodes themselves, I'd also ensure the overall workflow has a descriptive `name` like \"GetOnboardingFileDataanalysis\" and that it's marked as `active: true` so it can actually run. Also, it's good practice to add `tags` like \"PromptEngineer,\" \"Day3,\" \"Files,\" and \"Onboarding\" as specified. These tags are super helpful for organizing and finding workflows later, especially as the number of workflows grows." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON with a Manual Trigger node connected to an n8n node that utilizes a credential named \"n8n account\" with ID \"10\".

The prompt clearly states a \"Manual Trigger node\". So, my starting point will definitely be a trigger that I can activate on demand.\n\n* I'll choose the node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This is perfect because it allows for direct, manual execution, which aligns perfectly with the requirement. It doesn't need any special configuration, it just acts as the entry point when someone clicks 'Test workflow' or runs it manually. I'll give it a descriptive name like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" so it's clear what it does.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions an \"n8n node\". This suggests I'll be interacting with n8n itself, perhaps managing something within the n8n instance or retrieving information from it.\n\n* So, after my trigger, I'll add an `n8n` node. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.n8n` and I'll use `typeVersion 1`. This node is specifically designed for interacting with the n8n API, which is precisely what's implied by the prompt. I'll name it simply \"n8n\".\n\nNow, I need to connect these two nodes. The manual trigger needs to flow into the n8n node to initiate its operation.\n\n* I'll connect the \"main\" output of my \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" manual trigger node to the \"main\" input of the \"n8n\" node. This ensures that when the trigger fires, the execution path leads directly to the n8n node.\n\nAlright, let's configure this `n8n` node. The prompt has some specific requirements here regarding credentials.\n\n* It says the n8n node \"utilizes a credential named \"n8n account\" with ID \"10\"\". This is crucial for authentication. Within the node's configuration, under the credentials section, I'll specify an `n8nApi` credential. This is where I'd reference the pre-existing credential. I won't put the actual sensitive values here, but I'll make sure it points to the credential with the ID \"10\" and the name \"n8n account\". This means the node will be able to securely authenticate its requests to the n8n API using the configured account details.\n\nBeyond authentication, the prompt also states \"The n8n node should reference a credential with type \"123\"\". This tells me what operation the n8n node should perform.\n\n* Looking at the `n8n` node's parameters, the `resource` field should be set to \"credential\". This indicates that the n8n node is going to interact with the n8n instance's credential management system.\n* Then, the `credentialTypeName` parameter will be set to \"123\". This suggests that the operation within the n8n node is either looking for, listing, or performing an action related to credentials of a specific internal type, in this case, \"123\". The `name` parameter is also set to \"123\", which might indicate it's specifically targeting a credential instance *named* \"123\" within that type, or perhaps it's a generic placeholder in this context. The exact behavior would depend on the `operation` chosen for the n8n node, which isn't explicitly defined in the provided JSON, but this configuration points directly to interacting with credentials of that specific type.\n\nThat completes the setup. The manual trigger initiates, and then the n8n node, securely authenticated, performs an action related to a specific type of credential within the n8n instance itself." } { "prompt": "Generate a n8n workflow that receives data via a webhook, sets two key-value pairs (number: 1, string: \"my text\"), converts the data to XML, and responds to the webhook with the XML content, setting the `content-type` header to `application\/xml`.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"jsonToxml\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"XML\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.xml\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [840, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"number\", \"value\": 1}], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"string\", \"value\": \"my text\"}]}, \"options\": {}, \"keepOnlySet\": true}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [660, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {\"responseHeaders\": {\"entries\": [{\"name\": \"content-type\", \"value\": \"application\/xml\"}]}}, \"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.data }}\"}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1020, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"test\", \"options\": {}, \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\"}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [480, 440]}], \"connections\": {\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"XML\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"XML\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so I need to build a workflow that starts with a webhook, adds some specific data, converts it to XML, and then sends that XML back as the webhook response. Let's see...\n\nFirst, the requirement is to receive data via a webhook, so naturally, the very first node has to be a trigger that listens for incoming web requests. That's going to be a **Webhook** node. Looking at the JSON, it's `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is perfect because it provides a unique URL that external systems can call to initiate the workflow. I'd typically set a path for it, like `\/test` as seen in the JSON's `path` parameter. This makes the URL more readable and specific. Also, for responding directly from the workflow, I'd set the `responseMode` to `responseNode` rather than \"When last node finishes\" or \"Immediately\". This allows a dedicated 'Respond to Webhook' node later in the workflow to control the response, which is precisely what the prompt implies.\n\nAfter receiving the webhook, the prompt states I need to \"set two key-value pairs (number: 1, string: \"my text\")\". This sounds like a job for a **Set** node. It's really good for adding or modifying data in the workflow's item data. So, I'll connect the `Webhook` node's output to the input of a `Set` node. The JSON shows this as `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion 1`. Within this node, I'd configure the `values` parameter. I'd add a \"number\" field with the value `1` and a \"string\" field with the value `\"my text\"`. It's important here to ensure the data types match the requirement \u2013 `1` for a number and `\"my text\"` for a string. The `keepOnlySet` option being true means that any data that came *into* the Set node would be replaced entirely by just the data I'm setting here. This can be useful for ensuring a clean, predictable data structure for the next steps, especially if the incoming webhook data isn't needed later.\n\nNext, the prompt says to \"convert the data to XML\". This immediately makes me think of the **XML** node. It's specifically designed for converting between JSON and XML. Since the `Set` node outputs JSON (or at least, JSON-like key-value pairs), I'd want to use the `jsonToxml` mode. So, the output from the `Set` node will connect directly into this `XML` node. The JSON confirms this choice, showing `n8n-nodes-base.xml` with `typeVersion 1`, and the `mode` parameter set to `jsonToxml`. This node will take the `{\"number\": 1, \"string\": \"my text\"}` data from the previous step and transform it into an XML string.\n\nFinally, the workflow needs to \"respond to the webhook with the XML content, setting the `content-type` header to `application\/xml`\". This clearly indicates the need for a **Respond to Webhook** node. This node is critical when your initial `Webhook` trigger node is set to `responseNode` mode. The `XML` node's output, which is now the XML string, will be the input to this `Respond to Webhook` node. The JSON shows this as `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion 1`. For its configuration, the `responseBody` needs to be set to send the XML output from the previous node. The expression `={{ $json.data }}` makes perfect sense here, as the `XML` node typically places its output (the XML string) into a `data` field within the JSON item. Crucially, I need to configure the `responseHeaders`. This is where I'd add a new header entry. The `name` would be `content-type` and its `value` would be `application\/xml`, exactly as specified in the prompt. This tells the client making the webhook request that the content it's receiving is XML. And since the body is expected to be an XML string, the `respondWith` option should be set to `text`, as we are sending raw XML text, not a JSON object or a file.\n\nSo, the flow is `Webhook` -> `Set` -> `XML` -> `Respond to Webhook`, with data flowing sequentially and transforming at each step as required. Seems like a solid plan." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a manual trigger node connected to two Set nodes in sequence.

For a workflow that needs to be activated by a user, a manual trigger is the perfect choice. It allows us to initiate the workflow directly from the n8n UI, which is great for testing or for workflows that aren't time-sensitive or event-driven in an automated way.\n\n* I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. Its name, \"On clicking 'execute'\", clearly communicates its purpose. When this workflow is run, either by clicking 'Execute Workflow' or testing individual nodes, this node will be the starting point. The `pinData` shows it's set up to provide a simple start signal, typically an empty JSON object, which then propagates to the next node.\n\nNext, the prompt specifies that the trigger should connect to two 'Set' nodes in sequence, and they should pass data to each other. The 'Set' node is incredibly versatile. Its primary function is to manipulate data on incoming items \u2013 adding new fields, changing existing values, or even removing fields. Even if it's not actively setting values right now, it serves as a placeholder for data transformation steps.\n\n* So, I'll bring in the first 'Set' node. It will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion 1`. I'd probably name it something generic like \"Set\" initially. I'll connect its input, the `main` input, to the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" manual trigger node. This ensures that whatever item (even if it's just an empty item) is generated by the trigger is passed directly into this first 'Set' node. Looking at the JSON, its `parameters` show `{\"options\": {}}`, meaning it's not configured to add or modify any specific data yet, but it's ready to do so. Perhaps later, a user would configure it to add an initial piece of data or a flag.\n\nFollowing the prompt's request for two 'Set' nodes in sequence, I'll add the second one. This continues the data flow and allows for multiple stages of data manipulation. For example, the first Set node might initialize some variables, and the second one might perform calculations or modify those variables based on subsequent logic, even if that logic isn't present in this specific workflow.\n\n* So, the next node is another 'Set' node, again of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion 1`. I'll name this \"Set1\" to differentiate it from the previous one. Its `main` input needs to be connected to the `main` output of the first \"Set\" node. This creates a direct pipeline: Trigger -> Set -> Set1. Just like the first 'Set' node, its `parameters` are currently empty (`{\"options\": {}}`), indicating that it's also a placeholder for potential data transformations down the line. It's ready to receive whatever data the first 'Set' node passes to it and then potentially modify it further.

The main goal here is to trigger on a webhook, grab the content of a specific Google Docs document, and then send that content back as the response to the initial webhook call. We also need to make sure it's properly tagged.\n\nFirst things first, for any workflow that needs to start when an external system calls it, I'll need a trigger node. And since the prompt specifies \"triggers on a webhook call,\" the choice is pretty clear.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding a **Webhook** node. This would be of `type: n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 2`. This node is essential because it provides the HTTP endpoint that external systems can call to kick off our workflow. When configuring it, I'd define a `path` \u2013 this path makes the webhook URL unique and easy to identify. For instance, something like `\/onboarding\/document-retrieval` would work well, but the exact path isn't critical right now, just that it exists.\n\nA very important parameter for this Webhook node is `responseMode`. The prompt says \"return it as the response,\" which implies we'll be constructing the response *after* processing. So, I'd set `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This means the Webhook node itself won't immediately send a response; instead, it will wait for a later \"Respond to Webhook\" node to handle the reply, allowing us to include the Google Docs content.\n\nAlright, so the webhook is set up to receive the call. What's next? The core of the request is to \"retrieve the content of a Google Docs document.\" For that, I clearly need a node that can interact with Google Docs.\n\nSo, I'd connect the **Webhook** node's `main` output to a **Google Docs** node. This would be `type: n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion: 2`. This node is specifically designed for interacting with Google Docs, whether it's reading, writing, or other operations.\n\nInside the **Google Docs** node, I'd configure the `operation`. The goal is to \"retrieve the content,\" so the `operation` parameter would be set to `get`. This tells the node to fetch the content of a document. Then, crucially, I'd need to provide the `documentURL` parameter. This is where the specific Google Docs document that we want to read from would be linked. Obviously, I wouldn't put a real URL here, but just know that's where it would go. Additionally, the Google Docs node requires authentication, so a Google Docs OAuth2 credential would need to be configured and linked. This credential would handle the secure connection to Google.\n\nNow that we've retrieved the document content (which the Google Docs node will output, typically in a field like `content`), the final step is to \"return it as the response\" to the original webhook call.\n\nSince we set the initial **Webhook** node's `responseMode` to `responseNode`, I need a dedicated node to send that response. So, I'd connect the **Google Docs** node's `main` output to a **Respond to Webhook** node. This node would be of `type: n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion: 1.1`.\n\nInside the **Respond to Webhook** node, I need to tell it what to send back. The prompt implies returning the *content* directly, so I'd set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`. For the `responseBody` parameter, I would use an expression to dynamically pull the content from the Google Docs node's output. Typically, the content would be available in a field, and an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` would correctly reference that. This way, whatever text the Google Docs node retrieved will be sent back as the HTTP response body.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that the workflow should be tagged as \"Lg\", \"Day 2\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding\". These tags would be applied to the overall workflow settings, not within any specific node.

The request is pretty clear: we need something that kicks off manually, pauses for a bit, and then sends data to a Set node.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to initiate the workflow. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual input,\" so that points directly to the `Manual` trigger node. I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This is perfect because it gives us a simple button in the n8n UI to start the workflow whenever we need to test it or run it ad-hoc. There aren't any specific parameters to configure for this node, it just serves as the starting point, pushing an empty item (or whatever input it receives if triggered by another workflow) downstream.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"waits for 2 seconds.\" This immediately tells me I need a `Wait` node. So, I'll connect the `Manual` trigger node's main output to the input of a new `Wait` node. This `Wait` node will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.wait` and `typeVersion 1`. Looking at the configuration, it needs to wait for a specific duration. The JSON shows `{\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}`, which directly matches the requirement of waiting for 2 seconds. This is straightforward: any data that comes into this node will simply be held for that specified time before being passed along. It's useful for rate limiting or just introducing a delay in a sequence of operations.\n\nFinally, the prompt states \"and then passes the data to a Set node.\" So, after our `Wait` node has done its job, its output will flow into a `Set` node. I'll connect the main output of the `Wait` node to the input of this `Set` node. The `Set` node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion 1`. The `Set` node is incredibly versatile; it allows us to add, rename, or remove data fields on items as they pass through. In this specific case, the `parameters` for the Set node are `{\"options\": {}}`. This means it's configured without any specific fields to set or change. It's essentially acting as a passthrough, receiving the data that originated from the `Manual` trigger and passed through the `Wait` node. While it's not modifying the data here, it serves as the specified final destination for the data flow in this simple example. Perhaps in a more complex scenario, we would use it to add a timestamp, a status, or some derived value to the incoming data before sending it further down the workflow. But for this exact request, an empty Set node fulfills the requirement of \"passing data to a Set node.\"" } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers manually, sets a value in one node, and then passes that data to another node that also sets a value. Include three nodes total: a manual trigger, and two Set nodes.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"ff739753-9d6e-46a7-94d3-25bd03dd4973\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's break down how I'd approach building this n8n workflow, thinking step by step.\n\nThe user wants a simple workflow: it needs to trigger manually, then pass data through two distinct 'Set' nodes, where each one adds some value. The total node count should be three: one trigger and two 'Set' nodes.\n\nFirst, I need to figure out how this workflow will start. The prompt explicitly says \"triggers manually\". Looking at the available trigger nodes in n8n, the most direct match for this requirement is the `Manual Trigger` node. It's designed specifically for cases where a human interaction, like clicking a button in the editor, initiates the workflow.\n\nSo, my first step would be to add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. The JSON shows this node named \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is a perfectly descriptive name for its function. It doesn't typically require any specific parameters to be set for its basic operation, and indeed, the JSON confirms an empty `parameters` object, which is expected for this trigger's default behavior. The `pinData` for this node also shows `{\"start\": true}`, which just indicates it's the starting point of the workflow.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions \"sets a value in one node, and then passes that data to another node that also sets a value.\" This immediately tells me I'll need 'Set' nodes. The 'Set' node is excellent for adding, modifying, or removing data fields within the workflow's item stream. It's a fundamental node for data manipulation.\n\nSo, I'd add the first 'Set' node. According to the JSON, this node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion 1`, and it's named \"Set\". I'd connect the 'main' output of my 'On clicking 'execute'' node to the 'main' input of this \"Set\" node. This creates a direct linear flow, ensuring that once the workflow is triggered, the execution immediately moves to this data manipulation step.\n\nNow, concerning its configuration: the prompt states it \"sets a value\". The JSON for this specific 'Set' node shows `{\"options\": {}}`, meaning no specific values are pre-configured in this JSON snippet. However, if I were implementing the \"sets a value\" requirement, this is where I would define those values. For example, I might add a key-value pair like `firstName` with a string value of \"John\", or an integer `age` with a value of 30. The 'Set' node allows you to add different types of values (string, number, boolean, JSON, etc.), and those would be configured within its parameters, usually under the \"Values\" section. This node would then output an item (or items) that now includes these newly defined fields, making them available for subsequent nodes.\n\nFinally, the prompt indicates passing data to \"another node that also sets a value\". This means I'll need a second 'Set' node.\n\nSo, I'd add the last node, which the JSON defines as `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion 1`, named \"Set1\". I would then connect the 'main' output of the first \"Set\" node to the 'main' input of this \"Set1\" node. This ensures that any data processed by the first 'Set' node, including the values it added, is directly passed on to \"Set1\".\n\nSimilar to the previous 'Set' node, the JSON for \"Set1\" also shows `{\"options\": {}}`. Again, to fulfill the prompt's requirement of \"also sets a value\", this is where additional data manipulation would occur. For instance, I could add another field, perhaps `status` with a string value of \"completed\", or update a value that came from the previous node. The data from the preceding \"Set\" node would be available in this node, allowing me to build upon or modify the existing data structure. The workflow is now complete, fulfilling all the requirements of a manual trigger followed by two value-setting steps in sequence." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON configuration that retrieves content from a specific Google Docs document and responds to a webhook with that content. The workflow should include a Webhook trigger, a Google Docs get node, and a Respond to Webhook node, with connections between them.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFile Create Google Sheet template for lead generation\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/CreateGoogleSheetTemplateForLeadGeneration\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1CalcLDnpmiqRE9XPPXu8diIHhnonP6bJuVlC-YmLiuw\/edit?usp=drive_link\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's break this down step by step, as if I'm building it from scratch.\n\nFirst, I need to think about the overall goal: getting content from a Google Docs document and sending it back to whoever triggered the workflow. This tells me I'll need a way to start the workflow (a trigger), a way to interact with Google Docs, and a way to send a response.\n\nStarting with the trigger, the prompt explicitly asks for a \"Webhook trigger.\" So, the very first node I'd drag onto the canvas would be a `Webhook` node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the `typeVersion` is 2.\n* This node is ideal because it allows the workflow to be initiated by an external HTTP request. Someone sends a request to a specific URL, and *poof*, the workflow starts.\n* Looking at the configuration, the `path` parameter would be set to define the specific endpoint for this webhook. It's like giving it a unique address to listen at.\n* Crucially, the `responseMode` is set to `responseNode`. This is important because we plan to send a response back later in the workflow using a \"Respond to Webhook\" node. This setting tells the Webhook node to keep the connection open until that later response node sends its data. If it were set to \"Last Node,\" the webhook would respond immediately after the Google Docs node, which isn't what we want.\n\nOnce the webhook receives a request, the next logical step, according to the prompt, is to retrieve content from a Google Docs document. So, I'll need a node that can interact with Google Docs.\n* I'd search for \"Google Docs\" in the node palette, and sure enough, there's a `Google Docs` node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and the `typeVersion` is 2.\n* I'll connect the \"main\" output of the `Webhook` node to the \"main\" input of this `Google Docs` node. This establishes the flow: trigger the webhook, then go get the Google Doc content.\n* Now, for its configuration:\n * The `operation` parameter is set to \"get\". This is exactly what we need, as the goal is to *retrieve* content, not create, update, or delete a document.\n * Then, there's `documentURL`. This is where the specific URL of the Google Docs document we want to retrieve content from would be provided. This tells the node exactly which document to target.\n * For `credentials`, it indicates `googleDocsOAuth2Api`. This means the node needs to be authenticated with a Google account that has access to the specified document. A user would have previously set up this credential in n8n, granting the workflow permission to access their Google Drive and Docs.\n\nFinally, after successfully retrieving the document content, the prompt states we need to \"respond to a webhook with that content.\" This means the final step is to send the gathered information back to the original caller.\n* For this, I'll add a `Respond to Webhook` node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and the `typeVersion` is 1.1.\n* I'll connect the \"main\" output of the `Google Docs` node to the \"main\" input of this `Respond to Webhook` node. This ensures that the response is only sent *after* the document content has been successfully retrieved by the Google Docs node. The data from the Google Docs node (specifically, the content it extracted) will be passed along to this node.\n* Looking at its parameters:\n * `respondWith` is set to \"text\". This means the workflow will send back a plain text response to the client that initially triggered the webhook.\n * The `responseBody` is set to `={{ $json.content }}`. This is an expression that tells the node to dynamically pull the `content` field from the JSON data that was passed from the previous node (the Google Docs node). The Google Docs node typically outputs the document's text content in a field named `content`, so this expression correctly extracts it to form the response body. This makes sure the actual document content is sent back.\n * The `options` are left default, meaning no custom headers or status codes are explicitly defined, which is fine for a simple text response.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It's a straightforward sequence: trigger, fetch, respond." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers on a webhook, waits for 2 seconds, and then passes the data to a Set node.

Let's break this down.\n\nFirst things first, the prompt explicitly states that the workflow \"triggers on a webhook.\" That tells me my very first node *has* to be a Webhook node. It's the entry point, the listener for external events. So, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is designed to create a unique URL that external systems can call to send data into my workflow. When setting it up, I'd typically define a specific, unique `path` for that webhook endpoint, which ensures that external calls hit the correct workflow. The JSON shows a `path` is indeed configured, which is exactly what I'd expect. Other options like HTTP method or response settings would also be considered here, but for this basic setup, a default path is sufficient to get things going.\n\nNow, once that webhook triggers and receives data, the prompt says it needs to \"wait for 2 seconds.\" This immediately brings to mind the Wait node. It's purpose-built for introducing delays in a workflow execution. So, my next logical step is to connect a Wait node to the Webhook node. I'd use a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.wait` with `typeVersion 1`. For its configuration, the crucial part is setting the duration of the wait. The JSON specifies `amount` as 2 and `unit` as \"seconds\". This is perfect \u2013 it exactly matches the requirement for a two-second delay. The data that came in from the Webhook node will simply pause here for the specified duration before moving on. It's a simple yet powerful node for controlling flow timing.\n\nFinally, after the waiting period, the requirement is to \"pass the data to a Set node.\" This means the output of the Wait node needs to go directly into a Set node. The Set node, of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion 1`, is incredibly versatile. Its primary function is to manipulate or create data for subsequent nodes in the workflow. While it *can* add new fields, modify existing ones, or remove data, in this specific case, based on the provided JSON where the `options` parameter is empty, it appears to be primarily acting as a pass-through or a stage where the data received from the webhook and paused by the Wait node is simply made available for whatever might come next. It effectively \"sets\" the current state of the data for the next operation. The data from the Webhook, having waited, now arrives at this Set node, ready for whatever further actions are designed.\n\nSo, the connections are straightforward: the main output of the Webhook node connects to the main input of the Wait node, and then the main output of the Wait node connects to the main input of the Set node. This ensures a linear flow where data triggers, waits, and then becomes available for manipulation or finalization." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with a Webhook node (POST method, path \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\") connected to a Set node, and include pinned data for the Webhook with a JSON body containing \"here\": \"be\" and \"dragons\": true.

It's asking for an n8n workflow that begins with a \"Webhook node\" and then connects to a \"Set node.\" It also specifies details for the Webhook: it needs to be a POST method, have a specific path, and importantly, it needs \"pinned data\" including a JSON body. Finally, the Webhook should be configured for \"test\" execution mode.\n\nGiven that, the very first thing I need is a node that can receive incoming HTTP requests. The prompt explicitly mentions a \"Webhook\" node, which is perfect for this. It acts as a trigger, listening for external calls.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a **Webhook node** of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is ideal because it's designed to expose an endpoint that other systems can call to initiate a workflow.\n\nNow, I need to configure this Webhook node according to the prompt's specifications.\n* The prompt states \"POST method,\" so I'd set the `httpMethod` parameter to \"POST\".\n* Then, it specifies the `path` as \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201.\" This is crucial for the URL of the webhook, making it unique and identifiable. I'd input this directly into the `path` field.\n* The `webhookId` in the JSON is also \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\". This typically aligns with the path, serving as an internal identifier for n8n.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions \"pinned data for the Webhook with a JSON body containing 'here': 'be' and 'dragons': true\" and that \"The Webhook should be configured with execution mode 'test'.\" This is interesting, as \"pinned data\" isn't a direct configuration parameter *within* the node itself in the traditional sense. Instead, `pinData` in the workflow JSON represents a snapshot of data that was either *received* by the node during a past execution (like a test run) or explicitly *set* as mock data for testing purposes.\n\nLooking at the `pinData` section in the provided JSON for the Webhook node, I can see exactly what the prompt is asking for:\n* It includes a `body` with `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`. This is the exact JSON body requested, indicating that when this webhook was last tested or configured with pinned data, this was the payload it received.\n* It also shows `\"executionMode\": \"test\"`. This confirms that the pinned data was captured during a \"test\" execution of the webhook. So, while I don't configure \"executionMode\" *within* the node's parameters, the `pinData` confirms the webhook *was* indeed run in test mode with that specific payload, satisfying the prompt's requirement for the webhook to be \"configured with execution mode 'test'\" in terms of its recorded test behavior. The other fields in `pinData` like `headers`, `params`, `query`, and `webhookUrl` would reflect the details of that specific test request.\n\nAfter setting up the Webhook, the prompt states it should be \"connected to a Set node.\" This tells me what the very next step in the workflow should be.\n\nSo, I'd then add a **Set node** of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 1`. A Set node is incredibly versatile. It's primarily used to manipulate data flowing through the workflow \u2013 you can add new fields, modify existing ones, or remove data. In this particular workflow JSON, the `parameters` for the Set node are empty (`\"options\": {}`). This means it's not currently performing any specific data transformation or addition. It might be there as a placeholder for future data manipulation, or simply to show a connection downstream from the webhook.\n\nFinally, I'd connect the `Webhook` node to the `Set` node. The connection would typically be from the main output of the Webhook to the main input of the Set node. This ensures that any data received by the Webhook, including the body, headers, and query parameters, is passed directly as input to the Set node for further processing." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON workflow definition for n8n that triggers manually and executes another workflow, passing sample data including strings, numbers, arrays, objects, and empty values.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"workflowId\": {}, \"workflowInputs\": {\"mappingMode\": \"defineBelow\", \"value\": {}, \"matchingColumns\": [], \"schema\": [], \"attemptToConvertTypes\": false, \"convertFieldsToString\": true}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [500, 240]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Execute Workflow\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's design this workflow step by step, thinking through each part.\n\nFirst, the prompt specifies a workflow that \"triggers manually.\" This immediately tells me I need a trigger node that responds to a manual impulse, not a schedule or an external event.\n\n1. **Adding the Trigger Node**\n * I'll start by adding a `Manual Trigger` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it allows a user to initiate the workflow execution directly from the n8n interface by clicking a \"Test workflow\" or \"Execute workflow\" button. It serves as the starting point for any user-initiated process.\n * Looking at the provided JSON, its `parameters` object is empty, which is typical for a basic manual trigger \u2013 it simply provides the initial signal to start.\n * Crucially, the prompt also asks for \"passing sample data including strings, numbers, arrays, objects, and empty values.\" In n8n, for a `manualTrigger`, this sample data is often defined in the `pinData` section of the workflow JSON. This `pinData` tells n8n what output the node should produce when it runs (especially when tested).\n * So, when this `manualTrigger` node executes, it will output two distinct items of data.\n * The first item includes:\n * `aaString`: a string value (\"A String\").\n * `aaNumber`: a number value (1).\n * `aaArray`: an array containing mixed types ([1, true, \"3\"]).\n * `aaObject`: an object ({\"aKey\": -1}).\n * `aaAny`: an empty object ({}). This serves as one example of an \"empty value.\"\n * The second item further demonstrates the types and empty values:\n * `aaString`: another string (\"Another String\").\n * `aaNumber`: another number (2).\n * `aaArray`: an empty array ([]). This is another clear example of an \"empty value.\"\n * `aaObject`: another object ({\"aDifferentKey\": -1}).\n * `aaAny`: another empty array ([]).\n * This `pinData` setup ensures that our `manualTrigger` fulfills the requirement of providing diverse sample data right at the start of the workflow.\n\nNext, the core requirement is to \"execute another workflow.\" This clearly points to a specific n8n node designed for exactly that.\n\n2. **Adding the Workflow Execution Node**\n * After the manual trigger, I'll add an `Execute Workflow` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow` and its `typeVersion` is `1.2`. This node is designed to trigger and pass data to a separate, child workflow. This is very useful for creating modular, reusable workflow components.\n * **Connecting the Nodes**: I need to connect the `Manual Trigger` to the `Execute Workflow` node. The `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` will connect to the `main` input of the `Execute Workflow` node. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, the data it outputs (the `pinData` we just discussed) flows directly into the `Execute Workflow` node, ready to be passed to the child workflow.\n * **Configuring the `Execute Workflow` Node**:\n * `workflowId`: The JSON shows an empty object here (`\"workflowId\": {}`). In a real scenario, this would be populated with the actual ID of the child workflow that we want to execute. This ID is how n8n knows *which* specific workflow to run.\n * `workflowInputs`: This is crucial for passing the sample data.\n * `mappingMode`: It's set to `\"defineBelow\"`. This means we're explicitly controlling what data gets passed.\n * `value`: This is an empty object (`{}`). While it might seem counter-intuitive at first glance given `defineBelow`, in n8n, if `value` is an empty object when `mappingMode` is `defineBelow`, it typically means the *entire incoming item* from the previous node (our `manualTrigger` in this case) will be passed as the input to the child workflow. Since our `manualTrigger` is already outputting the desired sample data (strings, numbers, arrays, objects, empty values) as its items, passing the entire item effectively fulfills the requirement of passing that sample data to the executed workflow. If we wanted to transform or select specific fields, we would put expressions in this `value` object.\n * `matchingColumns`, `schema`, `attemptToConvertTypes`, `convertFieldsToString`: These are set to their default or empty values. `convertFieldsToString: true` is interesting; it indicates that input fields would be converted to strings, which can be useful for ensuring data type consistency if the child workflow expects string inputs for its parameters. For simply passing a general JSON object, these settings are generally fine.\n\nSo, in summary, the workflow starts, the manual trigger outputs the predefined sample data, and then this entire data payload is passed as input to the specified (but placeholder) child workflow for execution. This workflow effectively sets up a manually triggered process that passes a comprehensive set of sample data types to another workflow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that uses the Mindee node to extract data from both receipts and invoices, fetching the documents via HTTP Request from specified URLs.

The goal is to set up an n8n workflow that can process both receipts and invoices using the Mindee service, fetching these documents from specified URLs. The key here is using separate Mindee nodes for each document type.\n\nFirst off, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, something to kick it off. For a workflow that's not constantly listening for webhooks or running on a schedule, a simple `Start` node is perfect. So, I'd begin by adding a `Start` node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.start` and has a `typeVersion` of 1. This node acts as the manual trigger for our workflow when we want to execute it.\n\nNext, the prompt states that documents need to be fetched via HTTP Request from specified URLs. Since we're dealing with two different document types \u2013 receipts and invoices \u2013 and the request implies separate handling, I'm thinking we'll need two distinct paths for fetching and processing.\n\nLet's tackle the receipt first. After the `Start` node, I'd add an `HTTP Request` node. This is the ideal node type for fetching content from a URL. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` with a `typeVersion` of 1. I'll connect its input from the `Start` node.\nFor its configuration, the primary setting would be the URL where the receipt document is located. Crucially, since Mindee expects a file to process, I'd make sure to set the \"Response Format\" option to \"file.\" This tells the HTTP Request node to store the fetched data as a binary file in the workflow's memory, ready to be passed to the next node. The example also shows a \"User-agent\" header being set, which is good practice for identifying your application when making web requests; this would be configured under the header parameters.\n\nOnce the receipt document is fetched by the HTTP Request node, we need to send it to Mindee for extraction. So, the next node in this path would naturally be a `Mindee` node. This node, of type `n8n-nodes-base.mindee` and `typeVersion` 1, is specifically designed to interact with the Mindee API. I'd connect the output of the `HTTP Request` node directly to the input of this `Mindee` node.\nFor its configuration, the prompt explicitly requires separate nodes for \"receipt\" and \"invoice\" resources. So, for this particular Mindee node, I would set its \"Resource\" parameter to \"receipt.\" It will also require authentication to access the Mindee API, so appropriate API credentials, consisting of an API key, would be configured in the credentials section for this node.\n\nNow, for the invoice side. Since the prompt asks for separate handling and separate Mindee nodes, I'll go back to the `Start` node and branch off another path. Similar to the receipt, I'll add another `HTTP Request` node, also of type `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` and `typeVersion` 1. This node will also connect from the `Start` node, running in parallel with the receipt fetching.\nIts configuration would be very similar to the first HTTP Request node. A URL for an invoice document would be provided here, and its \"Response Format\" would also be set to \"file\" to ensure the invoice document is ready for Mindee processing.\n\nFinally, to process the invoice, I'll add a second `Mindee` node. Again, this is of type `n8n-nodes-base.mindee` and `typeVersion` 1. I'll connect the output of the second `HTTP Request` node (the one fetching the invoice) to the input of this new `Mindee` node.\nFor its configuration, following the prompt's requirement, I would set its \"Resource\" parameter to \"invoice.\" Just like the receipt Mindee node, this one would also need its own set of API credentials configured, ensuring it can authenticate and communicate with the Mindee service to extract data from invoices.\n\nSo, in essence, we have the workflow splitting from the start into two parallel branches: one for fetching a receipt and sending it to Mindee for receipt analysis, and another for fetching an invoice and sending it to a separate Mindee node for invoice analysis. This design perfectly fulfills the requirements of the prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers every 2 hours, uses a FunctionItem node to add two variables (`myVariable` and `myVariable2`) to the input item, and then uses a Set node to extract and keep only the value of `myVariable2` into a new field called `data`.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"item.myVariable = 1;\\nitem.myVariable2 = \\\"this is exciting\\\";\\nreturn item;\"}, \"name\": \"FunctionItem\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.functionItem\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [860, 680]}, {\"parameters\": {\"unit\": \"hours\", \"interval\": 2}, \"name\": \"2 hours Interval\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.interval\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [630, 680]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"string\": [{\"name\": \"data\", \"value\": \"={{$node[\\\"FunctionItem\\\"].data[\\\"myVariable2\\\"]}}\"}]}, \"keepOnlySet\": true}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 680]}], \"connections\": {\"FunctionItem\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"2 hours Interval\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"FunctionItem\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed from the ground up.\n\nFirst things first, the prompt specifies that the workflow needs to \"trigger every 2 hours.\" Looking at the available nodes in the n8n ecosystem and the provided JSON, the most suitable node for this kind of recurring schedule is an Interval node. So, I'd start by placing an **Interval node** of type `n8n-nodes-base.interval` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to emit an item at a regular, defined interval.\n\nTo configure this trigger, I need to specify the duration. The prompt states \"every 2 hours,\" so in the parameters for the Interval node, I would set the `unit` to \"hours\" and the `interval` to \"2\". This ensures that the workflow runs precisely when needed, acting as our reliable starting point. There's also a note in the JSON for this node, saying \"It is the 4 hours interval in which this node gets executed\" which seems to be a mismatch with the `interval: 2` parameter. I would probably clarify this if I were building it for a client, but based on the JSON, the actual configured interval is 2 hours, so that's what I'll stick with.\n\nNext, the prompt requires us to \"use a FunctionItem node to add two variables (`myVariable` and `myVariable2`) to the input item.\" This clearly points me towards using a FunctionItem node. A **FunctionItem node** of type `n8n-nodes-base.functionItem` and `typeVersion: 1` is ideal here because it allows us to execute custom JavaScript code on each incoming item, modifying it or adding new data to it. The `FunctionItem` variant is specifically good when you want to process each item individually and return one item for each input item, which is what we need since the Interval node typically outputs a single item.\n\nI'll connect the output of my \"2 hours Interval\" node to the input of this \"FunctionItem\" node. This ensures that every time the interval triggers, the workflow flow continues to the FunctionItem node.\n\nNow, for the configuration of the FunctionItem node: The prompt asks to add `myVariable` and `myVariable2`. Inside the `functionCode` parameter, I'd write the JavaScript to achieve this. The code `item.myVariable = 1;\\nitem.myVariable2 = \\\"this is exciting\\\";\\nreturn item;` effectively takes the incoming `item` (which would be the output from the Interval node, likely an empty object or a timestamp) and adds two new properties to it: `myVariable` with a numeric value of `1` and `myVariable2` with the string value \"this is exciting\". This piece of code directly fulfills the requirement.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies to \"then use a Set node to extract and keep only the value of `myVariable2` into a new field called `data`.\" This is a perfect job for a Set node. A **Set node** of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 1` is designed for exactly this purpose: to manipulate the data on incoming items, setting new values, renaming fields, or even removing existing ones.\n\nI'll connect the output of the \"FunctionItem\" node to the input of this \"Set\" node. This means the item that now contains `myVariable` and `myVariable2` will be passed along for further processing.\n\nFor the Set node's configuration, there are a couple of key parameters. We need to create a new field called `data` and assign it the value of `myVariable2` from the previous node. So, under the `values` parameter, I'd add a \"string\" type value. Its `name` would be set to \"data\". For its `value`, I'd use an expression to reference the data from the \"FunctionItem\" node. The expression would look something like `={{$node[\"FunctionItem\"].data[\"myVariable2\"]}}`. This dynamic expression tells the Set node to look at the data output by the \"FunctionItem\" node and extract the value associated with the `myVariable2` key.\n\nCrucially, the prompt also says to \"extract and **keep only** the value.\" This implies that all other fields on the item should be removed, leaving just our newly created `data` field. The Set node has a parameter called `keepOnlySet`. I would set this to `true`. This ensures that after the Set node processes the item, the output item will contain *only* the `data` field with the value of `myVariable2`, discarding `myVariable` and any other initial fields that came from the Interval node and FunctionItem node. This fulfills the exact transformation required." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers manually and then sends a message via the Twake node, requiring Twake credentials. The Twake node should allow specifying content, channel ID, and additional fields, but leave those empty initially.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Send a message on Twake\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"content\": \"\", \"channelId\": \"\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Twake\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.twake\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [800, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Twake\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this workflow from the ground up, keeping in mind the user's request and the provided JSON structure.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a way to get it to run. The user specifically asked for a manual trigger. So, my initial thought is, \"How do I make this workflow trigger when someone clicks a button?\"\n\n* I'll need a Trigger node for this. Looking through the available triggers in n8n, the `manualTrigger` node is the perfect fit. It's designed exactly for this purpose \u2013 allowing the workflow to be executed manually from the n8n interface.\n* So, I'll add a node of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node, as per the JSON, will be named \"On clicking 'execute'\". It doesn't require any specific parameters; its presence alone signifies a manual start. It's clean and simple.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next action is to send a message via Twake. This tells me I'll need an integration node for Twake.\n\n* n8n typically has dedicated nodes for popular services, so I'd look for a Twake node. And indeed, the JSON confirms there's a `twake` node available.\n* I'll add a node of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.twake\"` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node, named \"Twake\" in the JSON, will handle the actual communication with the Twake API.\n* Now, how does this node get configured? The prompt states it requires Twake credentials. So, naturally, the `credentials` field for this node will need to be set up. In the JSON, it shows `{\"twakeCloudApi\": \"\"}`, which indicates that a credential of the type `twakeCloudApi` needs to be linked. This is where the user would connect their specific Twake account to allow n8n to send messages on their behalf. I wouldn't put any actual secret values here, just indicate that this is the placeholder for the API key or token setup.\n* The prompt also specifies that the Twake node should allow specifying content, channel ID, and additional fields, but *initially* those should be empty. This translates directly to the node's `parameters`.\n * I'll set `content: \"\"` to allow for the message body to be input. Leaving it empty initially means it's ready for static text or dynamic data from a previous node if the workflow were more complex.\n * `channelId: \"\"` will be for specifying the specific Twake channel or conversation where the message should land. Again, empty for initial setup flexibility.\n * `additionalFields: {}` is a very useful parameter. It's an object that allows passing any other arbitrary fields that the Twake API might accept but aren't exposed as primary parameters on the node itself. Leaving it as an empty object `{}` is the correct default, ready for expansion if needed.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The `manualTrigger` produces an output (just a signal that it ran), and that output needs to feed into the `twake` node to tell it to execute.\n\n* The connection from \"On clicking 'execute'\" to \"Twake\" is straightforward. The `manualTrigger`'s `main` output should connect to the `twake` node's `main` input. The JSON describes this perfectly: `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Twake\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This ensures a sequential flow: trigger, then send message.\n\nThe `active: false` setting in the overall workflow means it's not currently running or listening for triggers (though for a `manualTrigger`, it just means you'd still need to explicitly hit 'execute' anyway). It's a standard default for a newly designed workflow.\n\nThat completes the workflow as per the requirements and JSON. It's a very simple, two-node workflow, demonstrating a manual trigger leading directly to an API integration." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that listens to a webhook, then uses two Code nodes to generate two arrays of 5 empty objects each, piping each array to separate Edit Fields nodes.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"PAY-1707\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [920, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [920, 540]}, {\"parameters\": {\"jsCode\": \"return Array.from({length: 5}, _ => ({}))\"}, \"name\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.code\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [700, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"jsCode\": \"return Array.from({length: 5}, _ => ({}))\"}, \"name\": \"Code1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.code\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [700, 540]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"dd660366-ca4a-4736-8b1f-454560e87bfb\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [480, 440]}], \"connections\": {\"Code1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Code\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}, {\"node\": \"Code1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow built from the ground up, thinking through each step.\n\nFirst things first, the user prompt specifies that the workflow needs to \"listen to a webhook.\" This immediately tells me I need a trigger node that can receive external data. So, I'll start by adding a **Webhook** node. This is of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the JSON shows `typeVersion` is `2`. This node is perfect for kickstarting a workflow when an external system sends it some data, which is exactly what \"listening to a webhook\" means. For its configuration, I see it has a `path` parameter, which would define the unique URL endpoint for this specific webhook. The exact path, like `dd660366-ca4a-4736-8b1f-454560e87bfb` here, is automatically generated or can be custom set, but it\u2019s essentially the unique identifier for this particular webhook. No other specific options are configured, meaning it's likely set up for a basic HTTP POST or GET request.\n\nNow, looking at the connections from the Webhook node, I see it connects to *two* other nodes: `Code` and `Code1`. This tells me the workflow will fork into two parallel branches right after receiving data from the webhook. This is efficient if both branches don't depend on each other's processing results.\n\nLet's follow one of these branches first, say, the one going to the node named `Code`. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.code` with `typeVersion` `2`. The prompt explicitly asks for \"two Code nodes to generate two arrays of 5 empty objects each.\" This Code node fits that requirement perfectly. Code nodes are incredibly versatile for custom data manipulation or generation using JavaScript. In this instance, I can see the `jsCode` parameter is set to `return Array.from({length: 5}, _ => ({}))`. This is a very clean way to generate an array. It creates an array with 5 elements, and for each element, it initializes an empty object `{}`. So, this node will output an array like `[{}, {}, {}, {}, {}]`. This is exactly what the prompt asked for: an array of 5 empty objects.\n\nFollowing the connection from this `Code` node, I see it connects to an **Edit Fields** node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and has `typeVersion` `3.4`. An Edit Fields (or Set) node is primarily used to modify, add, or remove fields from the incoming data. In this specific case, it seems to be receiving the array of 5 empty objects from the `Code` node. The `parameters` for this Edit Fields node are empty except for `options`. This implies that it's simply passing the data through without any modifications or perhaps it's intended as a placeholder for future field manipulations, or maybe to simply collect the output of the `Code` node into the main flow for subsequent steps if there were any after it. For now, it just receives the array.\n\nNow, let's go back and look at the second parallel branch that originated from the `Webhook` node. It connects to the node named `Code1`. Just like the first `Code` node, this one is also of type `n8n-nodes-base.code` with `typeVersion` `2`. It serves the same purpose as the first Code node as specified in the prompt: generating another array of 5 empty objects. I can confirm this by looking at its `jsCode` parameter, which is also `return Array.from({length: 5}, _ => ({}))`. This ensures that both branches independently produce their respective arrays.\n\nFinally, this `Code1` node connects to `Edit Fields1`. This is again an **Edit Fields** node, type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, `typeVersion` `3.4`. Just like its counterpart in the other branch, its `parameters` show only `options`, implying it's also set to simply receive and pass through the array generated by `Code1`. The prompt mentioned \"piping each array to separate Edit Fields nodes,\" and this is exactly what's happening here. This structure clearly separates the two generated arrays, allowing them to be processed or just collected independently within the workflow.\n\nSo, the overall flow is: webhook triggers, then two parallel code nodes generate their respective arrays, and each array is then fed into its own, separate Edit Fields node. This perfectly fulfills all requirements of the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that fetches the weather in Berlin at 9 AM and sends a Gotify notification with the temperature. The workflow should use Cron, OpenWeatherMap, and Gotify nodes, configured as described in the JSON.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 9}]}}, \"name\": \"Cron\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cron\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [490, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"cityName\": \"berlin\"}, \"name\": \"OpenWeatherMap\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [690, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"message\": \"=Hey!

The goal is pretty clear: fetch Berlin weather at 9 AM and send a Gotify notification with the temperature. Looking at the prompt and the provided JSON, it seems like a fairly straightforward sequence of nodes.\n\nI always like to start with the trigger, as that dictates when everything else happens. For something that needs to run at a specific time every day, a **Cron** node is absolutely the way to go. It's designed precisely for scheduled executions. So, I'd bring in a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.cron` with `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Cron node? The prompt says \"at 9 AM\". Looking at the JSON, the `parameters` for the Cron node specify `{\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 9}]}}`. This is perfect. It tells the workflow to trigger exactly at 9 o'clock. No need for minutes or days, just the hour. This simplifies things nicely; it'll fire daily at that time.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next logical step is to get the actual weather information. The prompt specifically mentions \"OpenWeatherMap\", and thankfully, n8n has a dedicated node for that, which makes fetching the data much easier than using a generic HTTP Request node and manually parsing JSON. So, I'd connect the `main` output of my Cron node directly to the `main` input of an **OpenWeatherMap** node. This ensures that the weather is fetched *only* when the workflow is triggered by Cron.\n\nThe OpenWeatherMap node will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap` and `typeVersion: 1`. For its configuration, the prompt specifies \"weather in Berlin\". Checking the JSON, I see `parameters: {\"cityName\": \"berlin\"}`. This is exactly what I need. I'd set the city name to \"berlin\". It's also going to need credentials to access the OpenWeatherMap API. The JSON indicates `credentials: {\"openWeatherMapApi\": \"owm\"}`. This means that a pre-configured OpenWeatherMap API key credential, named \"owm\" in this case, would be selected and used here. I don't need to know the actual key, just that it's required and configured.\n\nWith the weather data retrieved, the final step is to notify the user. The prompt explicitly states \"sends a Gotify notification\". Again, n8n provides a dedicated node for this service, which simplifies sending messages immensely. So, I would connect the `main` output of the OpenWeatherMap node to the `main` input of a **Gotify** node. This ensures that the notification is only sent after the weather data has been successfully fetched.\n\nThis Gotify node would be of type `n8n-nodes-base.gotify` and `typeVersion: 1`. Now for the fun part: constructing the message. The JSON shows `parameters: {\"message\": \"=Hey! The temperature outside is {{$node[\\\"OpenWeatherMap\\\"].json[\\\"main\\\"][\\\"temp\\\"]}}\\u00b0C.\"}`. This is an expression, indicated by the leading equals sign `=`. It's pulling dynamic data from the OpenWeatherMap node, specifically accessing its JSON output. The path `[\"main\"][\"temp\"]` is how you navigate the JSON structure returned by OpenWeatherMap to get the temperature value. This is crucial for making the notification useful, as it directly includes the current temperature.\n\nAdditionally, the JSON specifies `additionalFields: {\"title\": \"Today's Weather Update\"}`. This is a nice touch, giving the Gotify notification a clear title, which helps in quickly understanding what the notification is about. And just like with OpenWeatherMap, this Gotify node will also need credentials. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"gotifyApi\": \"gotify-credentials\"}`. So, a Gotify API credential, named \"gotify-credentials\", would be chosen here to allow the workflow to connect to the Gotify server.\n\nAnd that's it. The flow seems complete: trigger at 9 AM, fetch Berlin weather, then send a Gotify notification with the temperature. Simple, efficient, and directly addresses all parts of the user prompt using the specified nodes and configurations." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that downloads a specific Google Drive file using the Google Drive node and saves it to a local file using the Write Binary File node, triggered by a manual execution.

The user prompt specifies \"triggered by a manual execution,\" and looking at the provided JSON, I see a perfect fit for that. So, I'd begin by dropping in a **Manual Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is 1. This node is incredibly straightforward; it doesn't need any special configuration like schedules or webhooks. It just sits there, ready to be clicked \"Execute Workflow\" to start the process. This is the simplest way to get a workflow running on demand, which matches the requirement perfectly. I wouldn't really consider a different version for this node, as its core function is very stable and hasn't changed much.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next logical step is to address the core task: \"downloads a specific Google Drive file.\" This immediately points me towards a Google Drive integration. So, the next node I'd add would be the **Google Drive** node. This node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDrive`, and its `typeVersion` is 1. I'd connect the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's \"main\" output to this Google Drive node's \"main\" input. This connection signifies that when the trigger fires, the Google Drive node will be activated.\n\nNow, let's configure this Google Drive node. The prompt is quite specific: \"downloads a specific Google Drive file using the Google Drive node.\" This means the `operation` parameter needs to be set to `download`. The prompt also gives us the exact `fileId` to use, so I'd configure the `fileId` parameter with the specific ID provided. For `options`, there are none explicitly mentioned, so I'd leave that empty. Crucially, for the Google Drive node to work, it needs to authenticate with Google's API. Here, an appropriate Google API credential would be selected from the available credentials in n8n, allowing the workflow to access the user's Google Drive account. The exact credential value would, of course, depend on how the user has set up their service account or OAuth credentials.\n\nAfter the Google Drive node successfully downloads the file, it will output the file's binary data. The final part of the user's request is to \"save it to a local file using the Write Binary File node, and save the file as `\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf`.\" This clearly tells me the next and final node I need is a file-writing node. The **Write Binary File** node is exactly what's needed for this. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile`, and its `typeVersion` is 1.\n\nI'd then connect the \"main\" output of the Google Drive node to the \"main\" input of the \"Write Binary File\" node. This connection is vital because it's how the binary file content downloaded by the Google Drive node gets passed along to be saved. The Write Binary File node specifically expects binary data as its input.\n\nFinally, for the configuration of the Write Binary File node, the prompt is very explicit about the target path and filename: `\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf`. So, I'd set the `fileName` parameter to that exact path. There aren't any other parameters mentioned or needed for this specific task, so the default settings for anything else would be fine. This node will then take the binary data it receives and write it to the specified location on the n8n server's file system, completing the workflow's objective. Again, for this node, `typeVersion` 1 is pretty standard; its core functionality is quite stable." } { "prompt": "Create a JSON representation of a simple n8n workflow with a manual trigger connected to an n8n node that uses a credential. Include metadata, node definitions with parameters and credentials, and the connection between the trigger and the n8n node.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"credential\", \"name\": \"123\", \"credentialTypeName\": \"123\"}, \"name\": \"n8n\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8n\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [540, 240]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [300, 240]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"n8n\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt asks for a simple n8n workflow with a manual trigger connected to an n8n node that uses a credential. I've got the target JSON here, so I'll work backwards from that to explain the build process.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a way to start. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger,\" which is perfect for workflows that you want to initiate yourself, rather than on a schedule or via a webhook. Looking at the JSON, I see a node defined with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is exactly what we need.\n\nSo, I'd start by dragging and dropping or selecting the 'Manual Trigger' node onto the canvas. Its name in the JSON is \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", which is a very descriptive default name for this type of trigger, indicating its direct interaction with the user interface. This node doesn't require any specific parameters to get started; it simply waits for a user to click a button to execute the workflow. Its purpose is solely to kick off the execution flow.\n\nNext, the prompt requires an \"n8n node that uses a credential.\" When I think about interacting with another n8n instance or specific n8n functionalities, the `n8n` node itself is the most direct and logical choice. Checking the provided JSON, I see a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.n8n\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This confirms it's the right node for the job.\n\nI would then place this 'n8n' node on the canvas. Now, these two nodes need to be connected. The `manualTrigger` will initiate the workflow, and then the execution needs to flow directly to the 'n8n' node. In n8n, the primary way to pass execution and data from one node to the next is via the 'main' output. So, I would draw a connection from the 'main' output of my 'Manual Trigger' node to the 'main' input of the 'n8n' node. The JSON confirms this connection: `\"connections\": {\"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"n8n\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This ensures that once the manual trigger fires, the 'n8n' node will immediately receive the execution signal and any default data from the trigger.\n\nNow, let's configure this 'n8n' node. The prompt states it \"uses a credential.\" The JSON shows `credentials: {\"n8nApi\": {\"id\": \"10\", \"name\": \"n8n account\"}}`. This tells me that this node is designed to authenticate with an n8n API using a pre-configured credential. So, within the 'n8n' node's configuration panel, I would select an 'n8n API' credential. This credential would contain the necessary authentication details, like an API key or an OAuth token, to allow the node to securely communicate with an n8n instance. The specific value of this credential is, of course, confidential and would be managed separately.\n\nBeyond the credential, the node also has specific parameters. The JSON lists `parameters: {\"resource\": \"credential\", \"name\": \"123\", \"credentialTypeName\": \"123\"}`. This indicates that within the 'n8n' node's operations, it's set to interact with the \"credential\" resource type. The `name` and `credentialTypeName` parameters would further define *which* credential operation or resource it's interacting with, perhaps retrieving or managing a specific credential by its name or type. The exact function would depend on the chosen operation, but this configuration points towards some form of credential management or interaction with n8n's credential store.\n\nFinally, there's the `meta` object at the top level of the JSON, which contains `instanceId`. This is just general metadata about the workflow itself, often generated by n8n to uniquely identify a workflow instance or aid in internal tracking. It doesn't affect the workflow's logic but is part of its overall definition.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it. A manual trigger, connected to an n8n node, configured to use an n8n API credential and perform an operation on a 'credential' resource. It's a straightforward flow, meeting all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create a JSON workflow representation with a manual trigger node connected to an execute workflow node.

The request is pretty specific: a manual trigger connected to an execute workflow node, with specific example pin data.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The request explicitly asks for a \"manual trigger node.\" Looking at the available nodes, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node is perfect for this. It's designed to initiate a workflow execution simply by clicking a button, which aligns perfectly with the \"manual trigger\" requirement. I'll use `typeVersion: 1` for this node, as specified in the JSON. Its position is set to `[0, 0]`, usually signifying the top-left start of the workflow canvas. It doesn't require any specific parameters beyond its default setup, which is great for a simple trigger.\n\nNext, the prompt states this trigger should be \"connected to an execute workflow node.\" The `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow` node is precisely what we need here. Its purpose is to call and execute another workflow, or even the same workflow recursively, which can be very powerful for breaking down complex processes or reusing logic. I see its `typeVersion` is `1.2`, which implies it might have some newer features or bug fixes compared to an older version, but its core functionality remains the same: executing another workflow.\n\nNow, how do we connect them? The `manualTrigger` node needs to pass its execution to the `executeWorkflow` node. A simple `main` connection from the `manualTrigger`'s output to the `executeWorkflow`'s input is the standard way to chain nodes together. So, the `manualTrigger` will simply trigger the `executeWorkflow` to run when it gets executed. The `connections` section confirms this: `When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019` connects its `main` output to `Execute Workflow`'s `main` input at index `0`.\n\nLooking at the `executeWorkflow` node's parameters, I see `workflowId` is empty, meaning it's not set to call a *specific* external workflow by its ID. This implies it might be intended to call itself or have the ID configured later. More importantly, `workflowInputs` is configured with `mappingMode: \"defineBelow\"`. This means we're going to explicitly define the data that gets passed into the sub-workflow (or the workflow itself if it's recursive). It looks like no specific inputs are defined here (`value: {}`), so it will likely just pass the incoming items from the `manualTrigger` node by default. The `options` are empty as well.\n\nFinally, the prompt has a very specific requirement for \"two sets of example pin data with varying string, number, array, object, and any data types.\" This refers to the `pinData` section of the workflow JSON. `pinData` is used to define static example data that a node can produce, often used for trigger nodes during development or testing to simulate incoming data without having to actually run the external system that would normally provide it. For our `manualTrigger` node, this means when the workflow is tested, it will start with this predefined data.\n\nFor the `manualTrigger` node, identified by its name `When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019`, we'll include an array of two data items.\n* The first item needs a string, number, array, object, and 'any' type.\n * `\"aaString\": \"A String\"` - Simple string.\n * `\"aaNumber\": 1` - An integer number.\n * `\"aaArray\": [1, true, \"3\"]` - An array containing mixed types (number, boolean, string).\n * `\"aaObject\": {\"aKey\": -1}` - A simple object with a key-value pair.\n * `\"aaAny\": {}` - An empty object to represent an 'any' type, as an empty object can hold anything.\n\n* The second item will also follow the same structure, but with different values to show variation:\n * `\"aaString\": \"Another String\"` - A different string.\n * `\"aaNumber\": 2` - Another number.\n * `\"aaArray\": []` - An empty array, demonstrating a different array state.\n * `\"aaObject\": {\"aDifferentKey\": -1}` - A different object, perhaps with a different key.\n * `\"aaAny\": []` - An empty array this time, also valid for 'any' type.\n\nThis `pinData` will ensure that when the workflow is manually tested, the `executeWorkflow` node receives these two items, each containing the specified varying data types, which it can then process further or pass on to the sub-workflow it executes. This setup provides a robust test case for the data handling capabilities." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that reads a CSV file located at `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv` and converts it to a spreadsheet format.

The user prompt explicitly states \"The workflow starts with a manual trigger node,\" and looking at the provided JSON, I see precisely that: a node named \"On clicking 'execute'\" of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect. A manual trigger is ideal for a workflow I want to kick off myself, perhaps for testing, debugging, or simply when I need to run it on demand. Its parameters are empty, which is standard for a simple manual trigger; it just needs to be clicked to activate.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions reading a CSV file located at `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv` and specifically calls for a \"Read Binary File\" node. So, after the manual trigger fires, the very next logical step is to fetch that file. I'll connect the `main` output of my `Manual Trigger` node to the `main` input of an `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile` node. This node, `typeVersion: 1` as per the JSON, is the go-to for accessing files directly from the n8n host's file system. To make sure it reads the correct file, I need to configure its parameters. The prompt gives me the exact `filePath`: `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv`. So, I'll set that parameter accordingly. This node will then output the binary content of the CSV file, ready for the next stage.\n\nFinally, the core task is to convert this CSV data into a \"spreadsheet format,\" and the prompt guides me to use a \"Spreadsheet File\" node. So, the output from the `Read Binary File` node, which is the binary content of the CSV, needs to be fed directly into this conversion node. I'll connect the `main` output of the `Read Binary File` node to the `main` input of an `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile` node. This node, also `typeVersion: 1`, is specifically designed to handle various spreadsheet operations, including parsing and converting different spreadsheet formats. Looking at its parameters, it has `{\"options\": {}}`. This means it will use its default settings for conversion, which should work perfectly for converting a standard CSV into a more generic spreadsheet data structure within n8n. If I needed to specify the output format\u2014say, XLSX or ODS\u2014or specific parsing rules, I'd configure those options here, but for this requirement, the defaults are sufficient." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that downloads a specific Google Drive file and saves it locally as a PDF.

The goal is to download a specific Google Drive file and save it locally as a PDF. Thinking about how n8n workflows typically start, we'll need a way to kick things off.\n\nSo, the very first node I'd reach for would be a trigger. Given the user's request, a manual trigger seems like the most straightforward option for immediate testing and execution. I'd add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This is perfect because it allows someone to explicitly click an \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n interface to start the whole process. It's simple, direct, and exactly what we need for a one-off download or a test run. There aren't many parameters to configure here, it just waits for a user action.\n\nOnce that trigger is in place, the next logical step is to actually get the file from Google Drive. So, I'll connect the output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to a Google Drive node. This would be a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.googleDrive`, and in this case, `typeVersion 1`. This node is the go-to for interacting with Google Drive, whether it's uploading, downloading, moving files, or listing them.\n\nNow, configuring this Google Drive node is crucial. We need to tell it what to do and what file to act on. Looking at the parameters, I'd set the `operation` to `\"download\"`. This is key, as it explicitly tells the node our intent: to retrieve a file. Then, to specify *which* file, there's a `fileId` parameter. This is where a unique identifier for the specific Google Drive file would be placed. It's a critical piece of information that tells the node exactly which document to fetch. Additionally, for any Google Drive interaction, you'll need `credentials` to authenticate with Google's API. A configured Google API credential would be selected here to ensure the workflow has the necessary permissions to access the user's Google Drive.\n\nAfter the Google Drive node successfully downloads the file, it will output binary data. The prompt clearly states we need to \"save it locally as a PDF.\" This means we need a node that can take that binary data and write it to a file on the n8n server's local file system.\n\nSo, the next node to connect would be the \"Write Binary File\" node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile` with `typeVersion 1`. It's specifically designed for this purpose: taking binary data streams and saving them as files. I would connect the main output of the Google Drive node directly to the main input of this \"Write Binary File\" node. This ensures the binary data from the downloaded Google Drive file is passed along.\n\nWhen configuring the \"Write Binary File\" node, the most important parameter is `fileName`. This is where we specify the full path, including the desired file name and extension, for where the downloaded file will be saved on the local machine. Since the goal is to save it as a PDF, I would set a file path that ends with `.pdf`, for example, something like `\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf`. This tells n8n exactly where to place the binary data it receives, and what to name the resulting file. No other options are needed for this simple save operation." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object representing an n8n workflow that retrieves customer data, then edits the data.

The prompt specifies three nodes: a manual trigger, a customer datastore node, and an edit fields node. This gives me a clear structure to follow.\n\nI'll always start with a way to initiate the workflow. The prompt specifically calls for a \"manual trigger.\" This is perfect for when I want to run the workflow on demand, perhaps for testing or a specific, non-scheduled task.\n\nSo, the very first node I'll add is a **Trigger** node. Looking at the provided JSON, the correct type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is incredibly straightforward; it doesn't really have any complex parameters. Its purpose is simply to start the workflow execution when it's manually activated in the n8n interface. It's essentially the \"start\" button for this process, labeled \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" in the example.\n\nNext, after the workflow is triggered, the prompt says we need to \"retrieve customer data\" using a \"customer datastore node.\" This tells me exactly what kind of node to look for and what its function will be.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Customer Datastore** node. According to the JSON, this is of type `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` and `typeVersion 1`. This node is clearly designed for interacting with customer data, perhaps a simulated or training database of customer information. Its connection will naturally come from the `manualTrigger` node. The `connections` in the JSON confirm this: the `main` output of \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" connects to the `main` input of \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\". This ensures that once the workflow starts, it immediately proceeds to fetch the customer data.\n\nNow, for configuring this `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node. I need to tell it what operation to perform. The JSON specifies `{\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}`. This is crucial because it defines *how* the node interacts with the datastore. \"getAllPeople\" makes perfect sense for retrieving customer data; it means the node will pull all available customer records from the datastore. I can also see from the `pinData` section in the JSON that this node is expected to output detailed customer records, including `id`, `name`, `email`, and other demographic information, which is exactly what \"retrieving customer data\" would entail.\n\nFinally, after retrieving the data, the prompt requires us to \"edit the data\" using an \"edit fields node.\" This clearly indicates a data transformation step.\n\nSo, the last node in this workflow will be an **Edit Fields** node. Based on the JSON, this corresponds to the `n8n-nodes-base.set` node with `typeVersion 3.4`. A `set` node is extremely versatile in n8n; it's used to manipulate the data items that pass through it \u2013 things like adding new fields, renaming existing ones, or modifying their values. This is exactly what's needed for \"editing\" the data.\n\nThe connection for this `Edit Fields` node would logically come from the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node, as it needs the customer data to operate on. The `connections` in the JSON confirms this: the `main` output of \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" links to the `main` input of \"Edit Fields.\" This means the customer records retrieved in the previous step will flow directly into this node for potential modification.\n\nWhen configuring the `Edit Fields` node, I look at its `parameters`. It has `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": []}, \"includeOtherFields\": true, \"options\": {}}`.\n- The `assignments` array, `{\"assignments\": []}`, is currently empty. This means that, in this specific configuration, no new fields are being added, nor are any existing fields being renamed or having their values explicitly changed.\n- However, `includeOtherFields: true` is an important setting. Even though no explicit `assignments` are made, this ensures that *all* the fields from the incoming customer data are passed through to the node's output. If this were `false`, and the `assignments` array was also empty, then the node would effectively output nothing, or only the fields explicitly defined in the assignments (which are none here). So, with this configuration, the \"Edit Fields\" node acts as a pass-through for now, but it's perfectly positioned to have field modifications added later without changing the workflow structure. It's a common practice to include a `set` node even if its initial configuration is a simple pass-through, anticipating future data transformations.\n- `options: {}` is just an empty object, indicating no special options are currently enabled.\n\nAnd that completes the thought process for building this specific n8n workflow based on the provided JSON and user prompt." } { "prompt": "Create a basic n8n workflow that triggers manually and then uses the Twilio node (with a placeholder for credentials) to send a message.

The prompt specifically says it should \"trigger manually,\" and the JSON confirms this with a node named \"On clicking 'execute'\". So, that's where I'll begin.\n\nI'd add a **Trigger node**, and the most suitable one for a manual start is the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. Looking at the JSON, it's specified with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to start the workflow when a user explicitly clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n interface. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters itself, which is why its `parameters` object is empty in the JSON; it simply waits for a manual prompt. I'd give it the name \"On clicking 'execute'\" as specified, which clearly indicates its purpose to anyone looking at the workflow.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step is to actually do something. The prompt states the workflow should \"send a message\" using the \"Twilio node.\" This makes it clear that a Twilio node is what comes next in the sequence.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Twilio node**. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.twilio`, and the JSON indicates `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed to interact with the Twilio API for sending messages, making calls, and other related operations, so it's precisely what's needed for this task. I'd name it \"Twilio\" as seen in the JSON.\n\nNow, with both nodes in place, I need to connect them. The trigger needs to tell the Twilio node to execute. So, I would draw a connection from the output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the input of the \"Twilio\" node. The JSON's `connections` section confirms this: the `main` output of \"On clicking 'execute'\" goes to the `main` input of \"Twilio.\" This creates a simple, linear flow: when the manual trigger is activated, it passes control directly to the Twilio node, instructing it to perform its operation.\n\nFinally, I need to configure the \"Twilio\" node itself. This is where the specifics of sending a message would typically be set up.\nLooking at the JSON for the \"Twilio\" node, I see an empty `parameters` object. This is interesting, as for a Twilio node to actually send a message, you'd typically need to configure properties like the recipient's phone number (`to`), your Twilio phone number (`from`), and the message body (`body`). Since these are absent in the provided JSON's `parameters` object, it implies that the workflow is extremely basic or perhaps intended for an operation that doesn't strictly require these, or that they might be assumed defaults if the node supports them. In a real scenario for sending a message, I would definitely be filling in those `to`, `from`, and `body` fields here, likely setting the `operation` to 'Send Message'.\n\nCrucially, the Twilio node also has a `credentials` property: `{\"twilioApi\": \"\"}`. This indicates that the node requires a `twilioApi` credential to authenticate with Twilio. This is where the user would configure their Twilio Account SID and Auth Token within n8n's credentials manager. The empty string placeholder just means that a credential *slot* is defined, but no actual credential values have been supplied yet. For the workflow to successfully send a message, this placeholder would need to be replaced with a properly configured Twilio API credential. Without that, the connection to Twilio's service would fail.\n\nAnd that's it for this basic workflow. A manual trigger initiating a Twilio send message operation, with a placeholder for credentials." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that creates example JSON data, converts it to a base64 encoded binary, and then writes it to a file named \"test.json\".

The goal here is pretty clear: create some specific JSON, convert it into a base64 encoded binary, and then save that binary content to a file.\n\nFirst off, I need a way to generate that initial JSON data: `{\"text\": \"asdf\", \"number\": 1}`. For simple data creation, especially when it's just setting a specific structure, a Function node is incredibly versatile. I'm going to add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.function` with `typeVersion: 1`. I'll call this one \"Create Example Data.\"\n\nWithin this \"Create Example Data\" node, the `functionCode` needs to define that exact JSON. So, I'll set it up to directly assign the desired JSON object to the `json` property of the first item in the incoming `items` array. The code would be:\n```javascript\nitems[0].json = {\n \"text\": \"asdf\",\n \"number\": 1\n};\nreturn items;\n```\nThis is a clean way to inject custom JSON data into the workflow's item structure, making it available for subsequent nodes. The `typeVersion: 1` indicates a standard Function node, and its behavior for basic item manipulation like this is well-established.\n\nNext, the prompt requires converting this JSON data into a base64 encoded binary. This isn't a standard, one-click operation available in a dedicated n8n node, so another Function node is the perfect choice for custom logic. I'll add another node of type `n8n-nodes-base.function` with `typeVersion: 1`, and I'll name it \"Make Binary.\"\n\nThis \"Make Binary\" node will connect directly from the \"Create Example Data\" node using a `main` connection, ensuring the JSON data we just created is passed along.\n\nInside this \"Make Binary\" node, the `functionCode` will perform the transformation. It needs to take the `json` property from the previous node's output, convert it to a string, then to a `Buffer` object (which is how Node.js handles raw binary data), and finally encode that `Buffer` into a base64 string. Critically, n8n expects binary data to be stored in a specific structure within the `binary` property of an item. So, the code will look like this:\n```javascript\nitems[0].binary = {\n data: {\n data: new Buffer(JSON.stringify(items[0].json, null, 2)).toString('base64')\n }\n};\nreturn items;\n```\nLet's break down that `functionCode` a bit:\n* `JSON.stringify(items[0].json, null, 2)`: This takes the JSON object created in the previous node and converts it into a formatted JSON string. The `null, 2` argument is for pretty-printing with 2-space indents, which is good practice and doesn't hurt performance here.\n* `new Buffer(...)`: This creates a Node.js Buffer from that JSON string. This is the raw byte representation.\n* `.toString('base64')`: This then encodes the raw bytes from the Buffer into a base64 string.\n* `items[0].binary = { data: { data: ... } }`: This is the crucial part for n8n. The `Write Binary File` node (which I'll get to next) expects binary data to be attached to an item under its `binary` property. This property is an object where each key represents a binary \"file\" or piece of data, and its value is another object containing a `data` property with the base64 string. Here, I'm just calling my binary data \"data\" as a generic name. This structure tells n8n how to handle the binary content.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that this base64 encoded binary should be written to a file named \"test.json\". This is straightforward, as n8n has a dedicated node for this. I'll add a `Write Binary File` node of type `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile` with `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nThis \"Write Binary File\" node will connect from the \"Make Binary\" node, again using a `main` connection. It will automatically detect the binary data attached to the incoming item (the `data` property within `items[0].binary` that we just created).\n\nFor its configuration, the only parameter I need to set is the `fileName`. The prompt specifies \"test.json\", so I'll put that exactly into the `fileName` field. The node will then take the base64 content it receives and write it to a file with that name in the designated output directory. The `typeVersion: 1` is the standard for this node and works perfectly for this use case.\n\nThis sequence \u2014 `Create Example Data` (Function) -> `Make Binary` (Function) -> `Write Binary File` \u2014 precisely addresses all requirements of the prompt, generating the data, transforming it correctly, and then saving it." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers on execution, then uses an \"Edit Fields\" node to set a field named \"response\" to the string \"Weather is sunny\".

So, my first thought is, \"How do I make this workflow start?\" Every workflow needs a trigger. Looking at the request, it needs to \"trigger on execution.\" This immediately tells me I'm not looking for something that waits for an external event like a webhook or a schedule. I need something that just *starts* the moment the workflow is activated or manually run.\n\nBased on that, I'd choose the `Execute Workflow Trigger` node. Looking at the provided JSON, it confirms this: `{\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1}`. This node is perfect for this scenario because it serves as a simple entry point without requiring any specific external input or complex configuration. Its `typeVersion 1` is the standard and fully capable for this basic \"on execution\" trigger. It doesn't really need any parameters, which is why its `parameters` object is empty in the JSON; it just signals the start of the workflow.\n\nNow that the workflow can be triggered, what's the next step? The request states, \"then uses an 'Edit Fields' node to set a field named 'response' to the string 'Weather is sunny'.\" In n8n, when we want to add new fields to the data that flows through the workflow or modify existing ones, the `Set` node is the go-to option. It's often referred to as \"Edit Fields\" in common usage.\n\nSo, I'd bring in a `Set` node. The JSON confirms this decision with `{\"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4}`. This node is specifically designed for manipulating data items, which is exactly what we need to do here: create a new field. The `typeVersion 3.4` indicates it's a fairly recent iteration of the node, likely with some minor improvements or bug fixes compared to older versions, but its core functionality of setting values remains the same and perfectly suited for our task.\n\nNow, how do I configure this `Set` node? I need to tell it *what* field to set and *what* value to give it.\nInside its parameters, there's an `assignments` object. This is where I define the new fields.\n* I'll add a new assignment.\n* The request specifies the field should be named \"response\", so I'll set the `name` property to `\"response\"`.\n* The value it needs to contain is the string \"Weather is sunny\", so the `value` property will be `\"Weather is sunny\"`.\n* And since it's a string, I'll explicitly set the `type` to `\"string\"`. This helps n8n understand how to handle the data.\n\nFinally, how do these two nodes connect to each other? The workflow needs to flow logically. The `Execute Workflow Trigger` starts, and then its output should feed directly into the `Edit Fields` (Set) node, so the \"response\" field can be set as soon as the workflow begins. The JSON's `connections` block clearly defines this: `{\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the primary output of the `Execute Workflow Trigger` node goes into the primary input of the `Edit Fields` node. It's a simple, linear flow, exactly what's required for this straightforward task." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers on a webhook, retrieves the content of a Google Doc, and responds to the webhook with the document's content.

I'll need a trigger that listens for incoming HTTP requests.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Webhook** node. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the type version is `2`. This is the perfect choice for starting a workflow based on an external event or an API call. It's designed specifically for this purpose.\n\nFor its configuration, I'd typically set up a specific path or URL that the webhook will listen on. The JSON shows a `path` parameter, so I'd configure a unique path for this workflow to make sure it's easily callable. Crucially, the prompt also says it needs to \"respond to the webhook.\" The Webhook node itself can respond, but it's often more flexible to let a dedicated response node handle it, especially if there's processing in between. Looking at the JSON, I see `responseMode` is set to \"responseNode.\" This is great, it confirms my thought that another node will handle sending the final response back to the caller, which is exactly what we'll need after retrieving the document content.\n\nNow that we have the trigger, what's next? The prompt says \"retrieves the content of a Google Doc.\" This clearly points me towards an integration with Google Docs.\n\nSo, the next logical step is to add a **Google Docs** node. This node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and its type version is `2`. It's the most straightforward way to interact with Google Docs within n8n.\n\nI'll connect the `main` output of my initial Webhook node to the `main` input of this new Google Docs node. This ensures that when the webhook is triggered, the execution flow continues directly into attempting to get the document.\n\nFor the Google Docs node's parameters, the goal is to \"retrieve the content.\" This means I'll need to set the `operation` parameter to \"get.\" This operation is designed to fetch the content of a specified document. I'd then configure the `documentURL` parameter with the specific URL of the Google Doc I want to retrieve. Of course, this node will also require authentication, so I'd make sure a Google Docs account credential, likely using OAuth2, is properly configured and linked to this node to allow it to access my Google Drive and Docs.\n\nAfter successfully retrieving the document content, the last part of the prompt is to \"respond to the webhook with the document's content.\" This brings us back to the `responseMode` setting we made in the initial Webhook node. Since we told the Webhook node that another node would handle the response, we now need that specific node.\n\nI'll add a **Respond to Webhook** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and the type version is `1.1`. This node is explicitly designed to send a response back to the webhook that initiated the workflow.\n\nI'll connect the `main` output of the Google Docs node to the `main` input of this Respond to Webhook node. This ensures that only after the document content has been successfully retrieved will we attempt to send it back.\n\nFor the configuration of the Respond to Webhook node, I need to decide how to send the content. The prompt implies just the content itself. So, I'd set the `respondWith` parameter to \"text.\" This will send the document content as a plain text response.\n\nThe crucial part here is how to pass the document's content. When the Google Docs node successfully retrieves a document, its output usually contains a field like `content` which holds the text. So, for the `responseBody` parameter, I would use an expression to dynamically pull that content from the previous node. The expression `={{ $json.content }}` is perfect for this, as it accesses the `content` field from the data output by the preceding Google Docs node.\n\nFinally, while not a node, the prompt also specified tags for the workflow: \"Day0\", \"PromptEngineer\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding\". These would be configured in the workflow's general settings or metadata to help with organization and searchability within n8n. These tags provide context and categorization for the workflow." } { "prompt": "Create a JSON object representing an n8n workflow with a single Airtable node that requires an Airtable application URL and a table URL using regular expression validation.

The prompt specifies a single Airtable node, which makes things quite straightforward. I'll be setting up just that one node and ensuring its configuration matches the requirements, especially regarding the URL validations.\n\nFirst off, since the goal is to interact with Airtable, the most obvious choice for a node type is going to be something specifically designed for Airtable operations. Looking at the prompt and the provided JSON, it's clear we'll need an `n8n-nodes-base.airtable` node. This node type is perfect because it's built to handle all the necessary interactions with the Airtable API, like reading, writing, or updating records, and it provides specific fields for Airtable-related configurations.\n\nSo, I'll go ahead and add that Airtable node. I see in the JSON that its `typeVersion` is set to `1`. This is important, as different versions of a node can sometimes have slightly different parameters or behaviors, but for this exercise, I'll stick precisely to `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nOnce the node is on the canvas, I'll give it a clear `name`. The JSON specifies \"Airtable\", which is perfectly descriptive for a single node workflow like this. Its `id` will be a unique identifier, something like \"e0c0cf7e-aa98-4b72-9645-6e64e2902bd1\" as provided in the JSON, which n8n typically generates automatically. And for its placement, the `position` is set to `[380, 180]`, which just determines where it appears visually on the workflow canvas.\n\nNow, let's dive into the node's `parameters` section, which is where the real configuration happens. The prompt explicitly states that the node needs to \"require an Airtable application URL and a table URL using regular expression validation.\"\n\nI'll start with the `application` parameter. This is where the user would specify the base or application they want to connect to within Airtable.\n- I see it has `mode: \"url\"`, which means it expects the input to be in URL format.\n- The `value` is initially empty, which is common for a newly configured node, indicating that the user needs to input the actual URL.\n- Crucially, it includes `__regex`: `\"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. This is how we enforce the validation. This regular expression ensures that whatever the user inputs here starts with \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/\" and is followed by at least two alphanumeric characters, which typically corresponds to the structure of an Airtable base ID in its URL. This is a great way to ensure the user provides a correctly formatted application URL before the workflow even attempts to run.\n\nNext up is the `table` parameter. This is for specifying the specific table within that Airtable application.\n- Similar to `application`, it also has `mode: \"url\"`, so it's expecting another URL.\n- Its `value` is also empty initially, waiting for user input.\n- And here's its `__regex`: `\"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. This regex is a bit more specific. It expects \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/\", followed by the application ID (again, at least two alphanumeric characters), then another slash, and finally, the table ID (at least two alphanumeric characters). This pattern correctly identifies a specific table URL within a given Airtable application, ensuring robust input validation for the table URL as well. The `__rl: true` property on both of these fields seems to indicate that they are subject to this kind of \"rich\" validation, including the regex check.\n\nFinally, looking at the `connections` object in the provided JSON, it's empty. This makes perfect sense for a workflow that consists of only a single node. There are no subsequent nodes for this Airtable node to send its output to, or no preceding nodes to receive input from. It's a self-contained definition of just that one configured Airtable interaction. And that completes the setup for this workflow as per the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON with a manual trigger, two \"Edit Fields\" nodes, and two \"thisNodeDoesntExist\" type nodes, connecting the trigger to the first \"Edit Fields\" node and the two \"Edit Fields\" nodes together.

The first thing I always consider is how the workflow is going to get started. Looking at the requirements, it explicitly asks for a manual trigger.\n\nSo, naturally, I'll begin by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. This is perfect for when you want to initiate a workflow directly from the n8n interface, perhaps for testing, or for a process that isn't scheduled but needs to be kicked off by a user.\n- I'd choose the node type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`.\n- The `typeVersion` for this node would be `1`. This ensures it behaves as expected for a simple manual trigger.\n- I'll place it at a good starting position, let's say around `[280, 320]` on the canvas, which is usually a good spot for the initial node. Its name \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" is pretty self-explanatory and fitting.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions two \"Edit Fields\" nodes. These are typically used to manipulate data as it flows through the workflow \u2013 adding new fields, modifying existing ones, or even removing them. The most common node for this in n8n is the `Set` node.\n\nSo, from our **Manual Trigger** node, the first connection should lead to one of these \"Edit Fields\" nodes.\n- I'll add the first **Edit Fields** node, which will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.set`.\n- The `typeVersion` for `set` nodes is `3.2`, which is the current robust version for handling data manipulation.\n- I'll position it to the right of the trigger, perhaps at `[500, 320]`, to maintain a logical left-to-right flow.\n- The connection will go from the `main` output of the **Manual Trigger** node to the `main` input of this first **Edit Fields** node. This means any data (even if it's just a single empty item from the trigger) will flow into this node for processing.\n- Inside this node, the `parameters` would typically define what fields are being set or modified. For instance, you could add a new field called `status` with a value of `processing`. Since no specific fields are mentioned, the `options` parameter would simply be an empty object, meaning no fields are being modified by default, but the node is present to serve that purpose later.\n\nFollowing the workflow's requirements, I need a second \"Edit Fields\" node, connected to the first.\n- This will also be an **Edit Fields** node, using the same type, `n8n-nodes-base.set`.\n- Its `typeVersion` will also be `3.2`.\n- I'll place it further to the right, perhaps at `[720, 320]`, keeping it in line with the previous nodes for readability.\n- The connection here will be from the `main` output of the first **Edit Fields** node to the `main` input of this second **Edit Fields** node. This ensures that any data modified or passed through the first `Set` node then gets forwarded to this second one for further manipulation. Again, its `parameters.options` will be empty, waiting for specific field definitions.\n\nNow, the prompt also mentioned \"two 'thisNodeDoesntExist' type nodes.\" While these aren't standard n8n nodes, and would typically throw an error if one tried to import a workflow with them, they are present in the provided JSON. I need to acknowledge them as part of the structure given. They don't appear to be connected in the provided JSON, but they are there.\n\n- I'll include the first \"unknown\" node. It's named \"Unknown node 1\" and its type is `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist` with `typeVersion 1`. It's positioned off to the side, at `[400, 500]`, indicating it's not part of the main sequential flow right now. It doesn't have any connections specified, so it just sits there.\n\n- Similarly, I'll include the second \"unknown\" node. It's named \"Unknown node 2\" and its type is `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither` with `typeVersion 1`. It's also positioned separately at `[600, 500]`, again, not connected to the main flow.\n\nSo, to recap the flow based on the connections in the JSON: the **Manual Trigger** node starts everything. It then feeds its output into the first **Edit Fields** node, which then passes its output to the second **Edit Fields** node. The two \"unknown\" nodes are present in the workflow definition but are unconnected, acting like standalone elements that aren't integrated into the data processing pipeline. This completes the structure as described by the JSON provided." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers manually and then creates a folder named \"n8n-rocks\" in Box, authenticating with the \"box\" credential.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"name\": \"n8n-rocks\", \"options\": {}, \"resource\": \"folder\"}, \"name\": \"Box\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.box\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Box\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants something that kicks off manually and then, quite specifically, creates a folder called \"n8n-rocks\" over in Box. And importantly, it needs to use a pre-existing Box credential.\n\nSo, first things first, how do we get this workflow to start? The prompt says \"triggers manually.\" Looking at the n8n nodes available for triggers, and specifically at the provided JSON, I see the first node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. This is absolutely perfect for what we need. It means the workflow won't run on a schedule or react to an external event, but rather it will only execute when someone explicitly clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n interface. It's a very straightforward trigger, ideal for testing or for processes that are human-initiated. This node is specified with `typeVersion: 1`, which is the standard version for this particular trigger node.\n\nOnce that trigger fires, we need to perform the core action: creating a folder in Box. So, naturally, the next step would involve interacting with Box. I'd look for a Box-specific node. The JSON clearly indicates the next node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.box`. This is precisely what we need because it's the dedicated node for connecting to and performing operations within Box. It handles all the underlying API calls, making it much simpler than, say, trying to use a generic HTTP Request node for Box's API, which would require a lot more configuration for authentication and payload structuring. This `Box` node is also `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, let's think about how to configure this `Box` node to meet the user's requirements. The goal is to \"create a folder named 'n8n-rocks'\".\n- The `resource` parameter in the JSON is set to \"folder\". This is crucial; it tells the Box node that we want to perform an operation related to folders, rather than files, users, or other Box resources.\n- For the specific action, within the folder resource, the default action is usually \"Create\" if not explicitly set to something else like \"Get\" or \"Delete\". The parameters provided `{\"name\": \"n8n-rocks\", \"options\": {}, \"resource\": \"folder\"}` imply a creation action, and the `name` parameter being set to \"n8n-rocks\" directly fulfills the requirement of naming the new folder. The `options` object is empty, which means we're not specifying any advanced options like a parent folder ID; it will likely create it in the root or a default location if not specified.\n- A very important part of interacting with any external service like Box is authentication. The prompt specified \"authenticating with the 'box' credential\". In the JSON, under `credentials`, I see `{\"boxOAuth2Api\": \"box\"}`. This tells me that this node is configured to use an existing credential that has been named \"box\" and is of the `boxOAuth2Api` type. This means the n8n instance would already have an OAuth 2.0 credential configured for Box, and this node will simply utilize it to authenticate its requests to Box's API. This is great for security as the actual authentication details are stored separately and reused.\n\nFinally, how do these two nodes connect? The `manualTrigger` node, labeled \"On clicking 'execute'\", needs to pass control to the `Box` node. Looking at the `connections` in the JSON, it shows that the `main` output of the `manualTrigger` is connected to the `main` input of the `Box` node. This is the standard, most common type of connection in n8n workflows, indicating a sequential flow where the output of the trigger simply signals the next node to execute. No specific data transformation or mapping is needed here; the trigger just initiates the process, and the Box node takes over to perform its configured action. It's a clean, direct flow from start to action." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers on execution, then uses an \"Edit Fields\" node to set the \"response\" field to the string \"Weather is sunny\".

I need to make sure I cover all the requirements and follow the provided JSON structure precisely, while also explaining my thought process.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly says \"triggers on execution.\" When I see \"triggers on execution,\" my mind immediately goes to a few options: a manual trigger, or perhaps an \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node if it's meant to be initiated by another workflow or simply upon activation\/manual run within n8n. Looking at the provided JSON, it clearly uses an `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` node with `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect for the requirement. This node doesn't need any specific parameters, as its purpose is simply to initiate the workflow when it's manually executed or called by another process. It acts as a direct start button for the workflow. I'd position this node somewhere central to begin the flow, maybe at `[560, 340]` as the JSON suggests, giving me room to expand to the right.\n\nNow that I have the trigger in place, the next part of the prompt is to \"set the 'response' field to the string 'Weather is sunny'.\" For setting or modifying data fields within an n8n workflow, the go-to node is almost always the \"Set\" node, which the user prompt calls \"Edit Fields.\" The JSON confirms this, using `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.4`. This node is ideal because it allows me to define new fields or modify existing ones with static values, expressions, or data from previous nodes. It's a very flexible utility node for data manipulation.\n\nTo configure this \"Edit Fields\" node (or \"Set\" node as it's technically called in the JSON):\nI need to add an assignment to set the desired field.\n* The field name should be `response`.\n* The value for this field should be the string `\"Weather is sunny\"`.\n* And critically, the type of the value is `string`.\n\nThis matches exactly what's in the JSON under the `parameters.assignments` for the `Set` node. It ensures that when this node processes an item, it will output an item with a `response` field containing that specific weather message. I'd place this node to the right of my trigger, maybe at `[780, 340]`, creating a natural left-to-right flow.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The prompt specifies, \"Connect the trigger node to the 'Edit Fields' node.\" This is a straightforward main connection. The output of the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node needs to feed directly into the input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. The JSON's `connections` object confirms this: it links `\"Execute Workflow Trigger\"`'s main output to `\"Edit Fields\"`'s main input at index `0`. This means that once the workflow is triggered, the data (even if it's just an empty item from the trigger) will flow into the \"Edit Fields\" node, allowing it to then add the `response` field. It's a simple, linear flow, perfectly suited for this task of initiating an action and then immediately modifying data.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to set up a system that waits for an external signal, goes and grabs some information from a Google Docs file, and then sends that information right back to whoever sent the initial signal. It sounds like a pretty straightforward request-response pattern.\n\nFirst things first, how do we trigger this workflow? The prompt explicitly says \"triggers on a webhook.\" So, the very first node, the entry point for our workflow, *has* to be a Webhook node.\n\n* I'd start by adding a **Webhook** node. Its type would be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the JSON tells me it's `typeVersion: 2`. This node is absolutely essential because it gives us a unique URL that external services can hit to kick off our workflow. It's our listener.\n* For its configuration, I'd want to set a `path`. This is like a custom endpoint, making the webhook URL more readable and specific. For example, `onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/GenerateEmailTemplates` seems like a good, descriptive path.\n* Another key setting for a webhook that needs to respond is the `responseMode`. We want to make sure the workflow *responds* through this same webhook, so setting `responseMode` to `responseNode` is crucial. This tells the webhook to wait for a subsequent `Respond to Webhook` node to send its output back. No special options are needed here beyond that.\n\nOkay, so we've got our trigger. Now that the webhook has received a request, what's the next step? The prompt says \"retrieves content from a Google Docs document.\" This points us directly to an integration with Google Docs.\n\n* So, I'd connect the `Webhook` node to a **Google Docs** node. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and it's `typeVersion: 2`. This node is perfect because it provides direct capabilities to interact with Google Docs, whether it's reading, writing, or managing documents.\n* For its configuration, we need to specify what `operation` we want to perform. In this case, we're retrieving content, so the `operation` should be set to `get`.\n* And, of course, the node needs to know *which* document to get. So, a `documentURL` would be configured here, pointing directly to the specific Google Docs file we're interested in.\n* To actually access the document, this node would require credentials. These would be configured separately, typically through an OAuth2 authentication method with Google, allowing n8n to securely access the user's Google Docs.\n\nWe've triggered the workflow, we've fetched the document content. Now, the final piece of the puzzle is to \"respond to the webhook with the document's content as plain text.\" This means we need a node specifically designed to send a response back through the initial webhook.\n\n* I'd connect the `Google Docs` node to a **Respond to Webhook** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node is explicitly for sending a response back to the webhook that triggered the workflow, ensuring the calling service gets a reply.\n* The prompt specifies \"plain text,\" so for the `respondWith` parameter, I would set it to `text`. This ensures the output is treated as a simple string, not JSON or a file.\n* Finally, for the `responseBody`, we need to actually put the content from the Google Docs node. Since the `Google Docs` node, when set to `get` operation, typically outputs the document's content in a field like `content`, I would use an expression here: `={{ $json.content }}`. This pulls the `content` field from the output of the previous node (the Google Docs node) and sets it as the plain text body for our webhook response.\n\nThe connections are straightforward: the `Webhook` feeds into the `Google Docs` node, and the `Google Docs` node then feeds its output into the `Respond to Webhook` node. This linear flow perfectly matches our request-retrieve-respond logic.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the core logic of the workflow. The workflow also has some descriptive tags, which are useful for categorization and organization within n8n. For instance, tags like \"Lg\", \"Day3\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding\" would help in quickly finding or grouping similar workflows. The workflow itself would also have a name, something like \"GetOnboardingFile Generate email templates\", to give it a clear identity." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers every minute to fetch ISS location data from an API, then extracts relevant data (latitude, longitude, timestamp, name) and sends it to an AWS SQS queue.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Send location updates of the ISS every minute to a queue in AWS SQS\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"queue\": \"\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"AWS SQS\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.awsSqs\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1050, 360]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"Latitude\", \"value\": \"={{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"0\\\"][\\\"latitude\\\"]}}\"}, {\"name\": \"Longitude\", \"value\": \"={{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"0\\\"][\\\"longitude\\\"]}}\"}, {\"name\": \"Timestamp\", \"value\": \"={{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"0\\\"][\\\"timestamp\\\"]}}\"}], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"Name\", \"value\": \"={{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"0\\\"][\\\"name\\\"]}}\"}]}, \"options\": {}, \"keepOnlySet\": true}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [850, 360]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/api.wheretheiss.at\/v1\/satellites\/25544\/positions\", \"options\": {}, \"queryParametersUi\": {\"parameter\": [{\"name\": \"timestamps\", \"value\": \"={{Date.now();}}\"}]}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 360]}, {\"parameters\": {\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"mode\": \"everyMinute\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Cron\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cron\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 360]}], \"connections\": {\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AWS SQS\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Cron\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this workflow from the ground up, thinking about what we need to achieve and the best n8n nodes to do it.\n\nThe primary goal is to fetch ISS location data every minute and send it to an AWS SQS queue.\n\nFirst things first, for a workflow that needs to run on a fixed schedule, I definitely need a trigger node. Looking at the requirements, \"triggers every minute\" points directly to a time-based trigger. The ideal candidate for this is the **Cron** node. I'd add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.cron` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is perfect because it allows us to set up recurring schedules. For its configuration, I'd go into its parameters and specify that it should run \"every minute.\" This sets up the heartbeat for our workflow, ensuring it fires precisely when needed.\n\nNext, once the workflow is triggered, the immediate step is to actually get the ISS location data. This means making an external API call. For this, an **HTTP Request** node is the go-to. So, I'd connect the `Cron` node to an `HTTP Request` node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` and `typeVersion 1`. This connection will ensure that every time our `Cron` node fires, an HTTP request is made. For the configuration of this `HTTP Request` node, I'd set the URL to `https:\/\/api.wheretheiss.at\/v1\/satellites\/25544\/positions`. This is the specific endpoint for the ISS. I also see a query parameter being added: `timestamps` with a value of `={{Date.now();}}`. This is a smart move, as it adds a dynamic timestamp to the request, which can be useful for caching purposes or ensuring the API responds with the freshest data, even if it's not strictly required by this specific API for fresh data. It simply adds a unique parameter each time.\n\nOnce we've made the HTTP request, we'll get a response back, likely in JSON format, containing the latitude, longitude, timestamp, and the satellite's name. The prompt specifically asks to \"extract relevant data (latitude, longitude, timestamp, name).\" While we could potentially send the raw API response directly to SQS, it's often better practice to normalize or select only the necessary fields. This is where a **Set** node comes in handy. I'd connect the `HTTP Request` node to a `Set` node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion 1`. The `Set` node is ideal for transforming and filtering data. In its parameters, I'd define specific fields:\n* `Latitude`: Mapped to `={{$node[\"HTTP Request\"].json[\"0\"][\"latitude\"]}}`. This assumes the API returns an array, and we want the first item's latitude.\n* `Longitude`: Mapped to `={{$node[\"HTTP Request\"].json[\"0\"][\"longitude\"]}}`. Similarly, from the first item.\n* `Timestamp`: Mapped to `={{$node[\"HTTP Request\"].json[\"0\"][\"timestamp\"]}}`. Again, from the first item.\n* `Name`: Mapped to `={{$node[\"HTTP Request\"].json[\"0\"][\"name\"]}}`. Also from the first item.\nCrucially, I'd also enable the \"Keep Only Set\" option in the `Set` node's parameters. This ensures that only these newly defined fields are passed on to the next node, cleaning up the data and making the payload smaller and more focused, which is good for SQS messages.\n\nFinally, with the extracted and cleanly formatted data, the last step is to send it to an AWS SQS queue. This calls for an **AWS SQS** node. So, I'd connect the `Set` node to an `AWS SQS` node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.awsSqs` and `typeVersion 1`. This node is designed specifically for interacting with AWS SQS. For its configuration, the primary parameter would be the \"Queue\" name, which would need to be configured with the specific name of the SQS queue where the messages should be sent. The exact queue name would, of course, depend on the user's AWS setup. This node also requires AWS credentials, which would be linked here; typically, this is handled via a pre-configured credential set in n8n, ensuring secure access to the AWS account. The data from the `Set` node will automatically become the message body for the SQS queue. And that completes the workflow, from trigger to data fetching, transformation, and finally, delivery to the queue." } { "prompt": "Generate a n8n workflow with a manual trigger node connected to two \"Set\" nodes in sequence. The workflow should start on \"execute\" and pass data from the trigger to the first \"Set\" node, then to the second.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"ff739753-9d6e-46a7-94d3-25bd03dd4973\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start conceptualizing this n8n workflow. The prompt clearly states we need a manual trigger and two \"Set\" nodes in sequence, with data flowing from the trigger all the way through to the second \"Set\" node. This sounds like a pretty straightforward linear workflow, perfect for demonstrating basic data flow.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger node,\" which immediately tells me I should look for a node that responds to a manual kick-off. So, I'd begin by adding a **Manual Trigger node**. Looking at the provided JSON, it confirms this: the node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is 1. This node is perfect because, as its name suggests, it allows the workflow to be started manually, typically by clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n UI. It's the simplest way to initiate a workflow for testing or for processes that aren't scheduled or event-driven.\n\nNow, once the manual trigger fires, it needs to pass its initial data to the next step. The JSON indicates some `pinData` for the manual trigger: `{\"json\": {\"start\": true}}`. This is interesting. It means that when this specific manual trigger node is executed, it will output a single item of data, which is a JSON object `{\"start\": true}`. This is the data that will be passed down the workflow chain. It's a simple, clear piece of information to initiate the process.\n\nOkay, so we have our trigger. What's next? The prompt says \"connected to two 'Set' nodes in sequence.\" This implies that the output of our manual trigger will feed directly into the first \"Set\" node. The \"Set\" node is incredibly versatile in n8n; it's used to add, remove, or modify data fields on the incoming items. Since the prompt doesn't specify *what* data should be set, the JSON shows `parameters: {\"options\": {}}`, meaning no specific data modification is configured by default within these Set nodes. They're essentially acting as passthrough nodes in this configuration, receiving data and then passing it along, or perhaps they're placeholders for future data manipulation. For now, they'll simply receive and forward the data from the previous node.\n\nSo, the next node I'd add would be a **Set node**. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion` is 1. This node will receive the `{\"start\": true}` data from the manual trigger. The connection for this flow would be from the \"main\" output of the `manualTrigger` node to the \"main\" input of this first `Set` node. This ensures that the data items produced by the trigger are processed by the Set node.\n\nFollowing the sequence, the prompt states \"then to the second\" Set node. This means the output of our first \"Set\" node needs to flow into yet another \"Set\" node. So, just like the previous step, I'd add a second **Set node**. Again, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion` is 1. This node will receive whatever data the first Set node outputs (which, given the current empty parameters, will still be `{\"start\": true}`). The connection here is crucial: it goes from the \"main\" output of the first `Set` node to the \"main\" input of this second `Set` node. This completes the linear flow as requested, ensuring the data from the trigger moves through both Set nodes sequentially.\n\nAt this point, the workflow would be complete according to the requirements: a manual trigger initiating the process, passing data to the first Set node, which then passes it to the second Set node. The positioning in the JSON ([600, 580], [820, 580], [1040, 580]) just shows a neat horizontal layout, which is good practice for readability. If there were complex data transformations or branching logic, I'd configure the `parameters` within the `Set` nodes, but for this specific request and JSON, they are left as simple pass-throughs. The workflow is not `active` (`\"active\": false`), which means it needs to be manually activated before it can run in a production environment or respond to external triggers (though a manual trigger doesn't need to be \"active\" to be run from the editor)." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object representing an n8n workflow that triggers a Telegram notification when an error occurs, sending the error message and the last executed node.

The requirement is specifically \"when an error occurs.\" This immediately points me to a very specific type of trigger node that n8n provides for this exact scenario. So, the initial node I'd reach for is the \"Error Trigger\" node.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.errorTrigger`\n* **Type Version**: 1\n\nThis node is ideal because its sole purpose is to listen for and capture errors that happen during the execution of other workflows within the n8n instance. It doesn't need any special configuration parameters for its basic function, which is just to act as the starting point for an error-handling workflow. So, I would add this to the canvas first, placing it at the very beginning of the workflow. It's the dedicated entry point for any global error handling logic.\n\nNow that I have a way to catch errors, the next step, according to the prompt, is to send a Telegram notification. So, the natural progression from the \"Error Trigger\" is directly to a node that can send messages to Telegram.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.telegram`\n* **Type Version**: 1.2\n\nThe Telegram node is perfect for this. It allows us to send messages to a specified chat. I would connect the \"Error Trigger\" node's main output to the input of this new \"Telegram\" node. This means that whenever the \"Error Trigger\" fires because an error occurred, the data related to that error will be passed directly into the Telegram node.\n\nNow, let's think about how to configure this Telegram node.\nThe most crucial parameter for sending a message is defining *where* it goes and *what* it says.\n\nFor the destination, there's a `chatId` parameter. This is where I'd input the unique identifier for the Telegram chat or user I want to receive these error notifications. It's a specific numerical ID, but the exact value would be provided by the user configuring the workflow to match their desired recipient.\n\nNext, and perhaps most importantly, is the `text` parameter. This is the actual message content. The prompt specifies sending \"the error message and the last executed node.\" n8n is great because the \"Error Trigger\" node provides rich context about the error in its output data. This means I can dynamically construct the message using expressions. I'd use an expression like:\n`=Error: {{ $json.execution.error.message }} \\n\\n\u00daltimo nodo ejecutado: {{ $json.execution.lastNodeExecuted }}`\n\nLet's break down that expression:\n* `$json.execution.error.message`: This expression specifically pulls the actual error message text from the data provided by the \"Error Trigger\" node. It's a key piece of information for debugging.\n* `$json.execution.lastNodeExecuted`: This expression retrieves the name of the node that was being executed just before the error occurred. This is incredibly useful context for quickly identifying where in a complex workflow the problem originated.\n* `\\n\\n`: I'm including these to add line breaks, making the message more readable by separating the error message from the last executed node information.\n\nThen, looking at the `additionalFields`, I see `appendAttribution: false`. This setting is usually there to prevent n8n from adding a default \"Sent via n8n\" attribution at the bottom of the message. For internal error notifications, keeping the message concise and focused on the error itself is often preferred, so disabling this makes sense.\n\nFinally, the Telegram node requires credentials to authenticate with the Telegram API. There's a `credentials` property where a `telegramApi` entry is referenced. This would be where the user has pre-configured their Telegram Bot Token. The actual ID or name of the credential (`3LRM6Aj1ndJe6IOw` and `Telegram account` in the JSON) is just an internal reference within n8n; the critical part is that a valid API token is securely stored and linked here to allow the node to send messages. I wouldn't specify the token itself, just that a pre-configured Telegram API credential is used to authorize the bot to send messages.\n\nAnd that's essentially the complete thought process for building this workflow. It's a straightforward, two-node setup that effectively leverages n8n's error handling capabilities." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON representation of an n8n workflow that retrieves content from a Google Docs document based on a webhook trigger and returns the content as a response.

The goal here is to set up an n8n workflow that listens for an incoming request, grabs content from a specified Google Docs document, and then sends that content back as a response. This is a pretty common pattern for serving dynamic content or integrating with external systems.\n\nI think I need to start by identifying the trigger. Since the prompt specifies a \"webhook trigger,\" the very first node in this workflow should definitely be a Webhook node. So, I'd add a node of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\"` with `typeVersion: 2`. This node is perfect because it acts as an entry point, waiting for an external HTTP request to kick off the workflow. It essentially gives us an API endpoint to call.\n\nFor its configuration, the `path` parameter is important. This defines the specific URL segment that the webhook will listen on. It helps organize different webhooks. Then, `responseMode` is set to `\"responseNode\"`. This is crucial because it tells the Webhook node *not* to respond immediately after receiving the request. Instead, it delegates the responsibility of sending a response to a subsequent node in the workflow, which will be the \"Respond to Webhook\" node later. This allows us to perform actions like fetching Google Docs content *before* sending a reply. The `options` parameter is empty, which means no special options are needed for now.\n\nOnce the webhook receives a request, the next logical step is to retrieve the content from Google Docs, as requested. So, I'd connect the Webhook node's \"main\" output to a Google Docs node. This node should be of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\"` with `typeVersion: 2`. This node is the right choice because it provides direct integration with Google Docs, allowing us to interact with documents, spreadsheets, and other Google Drive assets.\n\nWithin the Google Docs node's parameters, the `operation` is set to `\"get\"`. This is exactly what we need, as the objective is to \"retrieve content.\" If we wanted to create or update, we'd choose a different operation. The `documentURL` parameter is where the specific Google Docs link would be provided \u2013 this tells the node exactly which document to fetch content from. For `credentials`, it references a `googleDocsOAuth2Api` credential. This means the node will use an OAuth2 authentication method, which is a standard and secure way to access Google services. An account ID and name would be associated with this credential, but the actual authentication token would be handled internally by n8n.\n\nAfter successfully retrieving the content from the Google Docs document, the final step, according to the prompt, is to return this content as a response to the original webhook trigger. So, I'd connect the \"main\" output of the Google Docs node to a \"Respond to Webhook\" node. This node is of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\"` with `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node is specifically designed to work in conjunction with a Webhook node that has its `responseMode` set to `\"responseNode\"`. It allows the workflow to send a custom response back to the client that triggered the webhook.\n\nFor its configuration, the `respondWith` parameter is set to `\"text\"`. This indicates that the response body will be plain text. We could choose JSON or binary data if needed, but for simply returning document content, text is appropriate. The `responseBody` parameter is then set to `={{ $json.content }}`. This is an n8n expression that dynamically pulls data from the previous node. The Google Docs node typically outputs the retrieved document's content in a field named `content` within its JSON output. So, this expression grabs that `content` and uses it as the body of the response sent back to the client that called our webhook.

This is absolutely the right choice because its sole purpose is to get activated when an error happens in any other workflow configured to use this error workflow. It acts like a global listener for specific error events. Its parameters are pretty straightforward; in this case, there aren't any specific configurations needed for the trigger itself, which is why its `parameters` block is empty. It just sits there, waiting for an error to fire it up. I'll name it \"Error Trigger\" for clarity.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's the next step? The prompt says \"sends a Telegram message with the error details and the last executed node.\" This points directly to the Telegram node, which is perfect for sending notifications.\n\nSo, next, I'll add a `Telegram` node.

It needs a few key pieces of information: who to send the message to, and what message to send.\n\n* **Connection**: It requires credentials to connect to a Telegram bot. So, within the `credentials` section, I'd set up a `telegramApi` connection. This would reference a pre-configured Telegram account, providing the necessary authentication for the bot to send messages. The specific ID and name would depend on how the user has set up their credentials in n8n.\n\n* **Chat ID**: We need to specify where the message goes. This is handled by the `chatId` parameter. Looking at the provided JSON, it uses an expression `\"=2104798385\"`. This indicates a specific chat or user ID where the Telegram message should be delivered. In a real-world scenario, this would be a numerical ID representing a specific Telegram chat, group, or user.\n\n* **Text Message**: This is the core of the notification. The `text` parameter is where we construct the message. The provided JSON uses a neat trick here with expressions:\n `\"=Error: {{ $json.execution.error.message }} \\n\u00daltimo nodo ejecutado: {{ $json.execution.lastNodeExecuted }}\"`\n This is really smart. When an `Error Trigger` workflow runs, it receives data about the error that occurred. This data is available in the `$json` object under `execution`.\n * `$json.execution.error.message` will dynamically pull the error message itself from the payload provided by the error trigger. This is crucial for understanding what went wrong.\n * `$json.execution.lastNodeExecuted` will give us the name of the last node that ran before the error occurred. This is incredibly useful for debugging, as it tells us exactly where in the original workflow the execution stopped.\n The newline character `\\n` is used to format the message nicely, putting the error message and the last executed node on separate lines.\n\n* **Additional Fields**: The `additionalFields` parameter has `appendAttribution: false`. This is a small but good detail. It ensures that the Telegram message sent doesn't automatically add a \"Sent via n8n\" attribution, keeping the message cleaner and more focused on the error details.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The `Error Trigger` node is the start, and its output needs to feed into the `Telegram` node. In the `connections` object, we'll ensure that the `Error Trigger`'s `main` output is connected to the `Telegram` node's `main` input. This creates a direct flow: when an error triggers the first node, the data about that error (including message and last node executed) is passed along to the Telegram node, which then uses that information to compose and send the alert.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it. A simple, effective error notification workflow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that analyzes a URL (\"https:\/\/n8n.io\") using the Cortex analyzer \"Abuse_Finder_3_0\" and then retrieves the job details associated with that analysis.

My goal is to build an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, analyzes a URL using a specific Cortex analyzer, and then retrieves the details of that analysis job. The prompt specifies two Cortex nodes connected sequentially.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. Since the requirement is for a manual trigger, that's what I'll grab.\n\n1. **Adding the Trigger Node**\n * **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n * **Type Version:** 1\n * **Reasoning:** The prompt explicitly states the workflow \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This node is perfect for that. It allows the workflow to be executed simply by clicking a button in the n8n interface, which is exactly what a manual trigger does. There aren't any specific parameters to set for this particular manual trigger; it simply acts as the initiation point for the workflow's execution flow. I'll name it something clear, like \"On clicking 'execute',\" as it indicates its purpose.\n\nNow that I have the workflow's starting point, the next logical step is to perform the initial analysis with Cortex, as that's the core action required by the user prompt.\n\n2. **Adding the First Cortex Node (Analysis)**\n * **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.cortex`\n * **Type Version:** 1\n * **Reasoning:** The prompt requires analyzing a URL using a Cortex analyzer. The Cortex node is specifically designed for interacting with a Cortex instance, allowing me to submit observables for analysis.\n * **Configuration:**\n * **Connection:** I'll connect the `On clicking 'execute'` node's `main` output to this Cortex node's `main` input. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, it initiates the Cortex analysis.\n * **Parameters:**\n * **Analyzer:** This is crucial. The prompt specifies using the \"Abuse_Finder_3_0\" analyzer. So, I'll need to set the `analyzer` parameter to \"f4abc1b633b80f45af165970793fd4fd::Abuse_Finder_3_0\". This unique identifier ensures the correct analyzer is invoked on the Cortex platform.\n * **Observable Type:** The prompt states we are analyzing a \"URL.\" So, I'll set `observableType` to \"url.\"\n * **Observable Value:** The specific URL to analyze is \"https:\/\/n8n.io.\" This will be entered into the `observableValue` field.\n * **Additional Fields:** No additional fields are specified in the prompt or the JSON, so I'll leave `additionalFields` empty.\n * **Credentials:** This node needs to authenticate with the Cortex API. I'll configure a generic Cortex API credential, let's call it \"cortex\" for now. The actual API key or other authentication details would be provided by the user in a secure credential store, but for the design, I just note that credentials are required.\n\nAfter the first Cortex node submits the analysis job, it typically returns a job ID or some form of identifier for that analysis. The prompt then asks to \"retrieve the job details associated with that analysis.\" This tells me I'll need a second Cortex node to fetch those details, and it will depend on the output of the first one.\n\n3. **Adding the Second Cortex Node (Retrieve Job Details)**\n * **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.cortex`\n * **Type Version:** 1\n * **Reasoning:** I need to get job details from Cortex, and the Cortex node can also handle that. It's versatile enough to both submit analyses and query job information.\n * **Configuration:**\n * **Connection:** I'll connect the `Cortex` node (the first one) `main` output to this new node's `main` input. This ensures that the job details are only retrieved *after* the analysis has been submitted and its ID is available.\n * **Parameters:**\n * **Resource:** To get job details, I need to tell the Cortex node that I'm looking for a \"job\" resource. So, `resource` will be set to \"job.\"\n * **Job ID:** This is the critical part. The second Cortex node needs to know *which* job's details to retrieve. The first Cortex node, upon submitting the analysis, will output an item that contains the `_id` of the newly created job. I need to dynamically reference that. I'll use an expression here: `={{$node[\"Cortex\"].json[\"_id\"]}}`. This tells n8n to look at the data output by the node named \"Cortex\" (the first one), access its JSON output, and then extract the value of the `_id` field. This effectively passes the job ID from the analysis step to the retrieval step.\n * **Credentials:** This node also needs to authenticate with the Cortex API, so I'll use the same generic \"cortex\" credential as the previous node.\n\nThat pretty much covers all the requirements. The workflow starts manually, triggers an analysis on a specific URL with a specific analyzer, and then immediately fetches the detailed results of that job, all using the appropriate Cortex nodes and passing the necessary job ID between them." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON representation of an n8n workflow that triggers on manual execution, queries Airtable, and then uses OpenAI's gpt-4o-mini model to respond to a prompt about starting an AI agency.

The user wants a workflow that kicks off manually, touches Airtable, and then chats with OpenAI's gpt-4o-mini about starting an AI agency. We'll need three main nodes for this.\n\nFirst things first, how does this workflow even start? The prompt says it \"triggers on manual execution.\" So, I immediately think of the **Manual Trigger** node. That's the most straightforward way to run a workflow on demand.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is perfect for when you want to explicitly click a button to start your workflow, rather than it being scheduled or reacting to an external event. It's really just a simple starting point, so its parameters are typically empty, as we see here. It just provides an initial execution signal. I'd name it something clear, like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" to reflect its purpose.\n\nOkay, so the workflow starts. What's next? The prompt specifies \"queries Airtable.\" This clearly points to an **Airtable** node. It's the dedicated node for interacting with Airtable bases.\n\nI would then add an Airtable node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.airtable` and `typeVersion 2.1`. I'd place it visually after the Manual Trigger. Now, how do I connect them? I'd connect the `main` output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node to the `main` input of this new \"Airtable\" node. This ensures that as soon as the workflow is manually triggered, the Airtable operation starts.\n\nFor the Airtable node's configuration, the JSON shows it's set to interact with a `resource` of \"base\". This is quite general; it means it's set up to access the overall Airtable base, but it doesn't specify which base, table, or what specific operation (like 'get records', 'create record', etc.) it should perform. It just generally initializes the connection to the Airtable service. For a real-world scenario where I'm \"querying,\" I'd expect to see a specific base ID and perhaps a 'get' operation on a particular table, but for this workflow, it's left at this high-level \"base\" resource without detailed options.\n\nCrucially, an Airtable node needs credentials to connect. I would configure an `airtableTokenApi` credential here. The exact credential ID and name, like \"7dQBhYYvlblHIQMa\" and \"Airtable Personal Access Token account\" respectively, would be specific to the user's n8n setup and their Airtable API token. These ensure the workflow can securely authenticate with Airtable.\n\nAfter Airtable, the prompt dictates \"and then uses OpenAI's gpt-4o-mini model to respond to a prompt about starting an AI agency.\" This is a clear call for an **OpenAI** node.\n\nSo, I'd add an OpenAI node. This node is of type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.openAi` with `typeVersion 1.8`. I would connect the `main` output of the \"Airtable\" node to the `main` input of this \"OpenAI\" node. This sequential connection means the OpenAI request will only fire once the Airtable operation has completed, ensuring our intended flow.\n\nNow, configuring the OpenAI node. The prompt specifically asks for the \"gpt-4o-mini\" model. So, in the node's parameters, I'd set the `modelId` to `gpt-4o-mini`. This is vital for using the correct language model.\n\nNext, the \"prompt about starting an AI agency.\" The JSON shows a `messages` array, which is where the conversation history or the initial prompt goes. Here, it's a single message with the `content` set to \"Hola como puedo empezar una agencia de IA\" (Hello, how can I start an AI agency). This is a static, hardcoded prompt, which is fine for this example. The output of the OpenAI node would then contain the model's response to this specific query.\n\nSimilar to Airtable, the OpenAI node needs credentials to authenticate with the OpenAI API. I would set up an `openAiApi` credential. Again, the specific ID and name, such as \"Tnc8Gv0yuvWrwgr0\" and \"OpenAi account\", are placeholders for the user's actual API key.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the entire flow described in the prompt. We start manually, connect to Airtable, and then pass the execution to OpenAI with a specific query. The outputs from Airtable, though not explicitly used by OpenAI in this specific configuration, would still be available in the data flow for potential future use if the workflow were to be expanded." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON representation of an n8n workflow with a manual trigger, a disabled code node that introduces an error, and a functional code node, connected sequentially.

Looking at the prompt, it explicitly asks for a \"manual trigger.\" This is a straightforward choice because it allows us to initiate the workflow simply by clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n UI, which is great for testing or one-off runs.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding the **Manual Trigger** node.\n- Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n- I'll name it \"On clicking 'execute'\" as specified in the provided JSON. There aren't really any specific parameters to configure for this node type beyond its name, making it very simple to set up as the entry point.\n\nNext, the prompt requires a \"disabled code node that introduces an error.\" This tells me the next step in the sequence should be a Code node. A Code node is incredibly versatile because it lets me write custom JavaScript, which is perfect for both introducing an error intentionally and for manipulating data as required later.\n\nSo, connected directly from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node, I'll add a **Code** node.\n- Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.code`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n- I'll name this node \"Error\" to clearly indicate its purpose as per the JSON.\n- Now, for its configuration. The `jsCode` parameter is where the magic happens. The requirement is to add `myNewField` and introduce an error. In the provided JSON, it's done by having an undeclared variable `error` which will cause a runtime `ReferenceError`. Also, it iterates through `$input.all()` and sets `item.json.myNewField = 1;`. So, I'd put that logic in.\n- A critical part of this node, as per the prompt, is that it needs to be \"disabled.\" This means I'll explicitly set the `disabled` property to `true`. This way, even though it's in the workflow path, n8n will skip over it during execution, preventing the error from actually stopping the workflow when it runs. This is a neat trick for keeping a problematic node in the workflow for reference or future debugging without breaking the flow.\n\nFinally, the prompt asks for \"a functional code node, connected sequentially\" that \"should add a `myNewField` property to each input item.\" This node must come after the disabled \"Error\" node. Since the \"Error\" node is disabled, the data will simply pass through it to this next node.\n\nSo, I'll connect another **Code** node from the \"Error\" node's output.\n- Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.code`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n- I'll name this node \"Code\" as seen in the JSON.\n- For its `jsCode` parameter, this is where the actual, successful data manipulation happens. It needs to iterate over the input items and add the `myNewField` property to each. The logic for this is very similar to the previous node, but without the intentional error. It will loop through `$input.all()` and for each `item`, it will set `item.json.myNewField = 1;`. Then, it will return `$input.all()` to pass the modified data to any subsequent nodes, although in this specific workflow, it's the final processing step. This node will be enabled by default since it's meant to be functional.\n\nAnd that completes the sequence and configuration of the nodes as specified in the prompt and reflected in the provided JSON. The connections flow logically: from the manual trigger, through the disabled error node, and finally to the functional code node." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers on execution, then uses the \"Edit Fields\" node to set a field named \"response\" to the string \"Weather is sunny\".

My goal here is to create a simple n8n workflow that kicks off and then immediately sets a specific piece of data.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt mentions \"triggers on execution,\" which implies it's not a scheduled event or an external webhook, but rather something we manually initiate or that's called internally. Looking at the provided JSON, the first node defined is precisely for this purpose.\n\n* I'll start by adding an **Execute Workflow Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` and it's `typeVersion 1`. This node is ideal because it simply acts as a starting point without requiring any specific input or configuration parameters, as indicated by its empty `parameters` object in the JSON. It's essentially a blank slate trigger that gets the workflow going when you click \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n editor, or if it's called via an n8n API. It doesn't listen for external events or operate on a schedule, which perfectly matches the \"triggers on execution\" requirement.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's the next step? The prompt clearly states that after triggering, we need to \"use the 'Edit Fields' node to set a field named 'response' to the string 'Weather is sunny'.\" This points directly to the `Set` node in n8n.\n\n* So, my next action would be to add a **Set** node. The JSON names this particular instance \"Edit Fields,\" which is a good descriptive name. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is `3.4`.\n * This node is absolutely perfect for the job because its sole purpose is to add new fields to, or modify existing fields in, the incoming data. We want to *set* a specific field to a specific value.\n * Now, how do I configure it? Looking at the `parameters` for this \"Edit Fields\" node, I see an `assignments` section. This is where we define what fields to set.\n * Within `assignments`, there's an entry where `name` is set to \"response\". This specifies the name of the field we want to create or update.\n * The `value` is \"Weather is sunny\". This is the exact string content we need to put into that field.\n * And `type` is specified as \"string\", which correctly tells n8n that \"Weather is sunny\" should be treated as a text value.\n * The `options` object is empty, meaning we're just adding this field to the existing data item without any special rules like \"keep only set fields\" or \"add new fields only.\" For this simple task, the default behavior of simply adding the field is exactly what we want.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The prompt explicitly says, \"Connect the trigger to the 'Edit Fields' node.\"\n\n* I'll establish a connection from the `main` output of the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node to the `main` input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This means that when the trigger fires, any data it outputs (which for an \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" is usually just an empty item to kick things off) will flow directly into the \"Edit Fields\" node. The \"Edit Fields\" node will then receive that item and augment it by adding the \"response\" field with the \"Weather is sunny\" string, making that the output of the workflow's data stream.\n\nThis seems like a complete and straightforward implementation for the given requirements. It's efficient, using only two nodes, and directly addresses the prompt's instructions." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that fetches a random cocktail recipe from TheCocktailDB API, converts the JSON response to binary data, and writes it to a file named \"cocktail.json\".

The user wants to fetch a random cocktail, convert its JSON response, and save it as a file. They specifically asked for a manual trigger.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Since the request specifies a manual trigger, the obvious choice is the **Manual Trigger** node. I'd add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This is the simplest way to kick off a workflow when someone explicitly clicks an \"Execute Workflow\" button or similar. It doesn't need any complex configuration, it just sits there, waiting for a user to initiate it. This perfectly fits the \"start with a manual trigger\" requirement.\n\nNext, after the workflow is manually triggered, the core task is to fetch a random cocktail recipe from TheCocktailDB API. For any kind of external data fetching over the internet, an **HTTP Request** node is the go-to. So, I'd connect the `main` output of our `Manual Trigger` node to the `main` input of an `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` node, with `typeVersion 1`. This node is specifically designed for making web requests.\n\nNow, how do I configure this HTTP Request node? The prompt states \"fetches a random cocktail recipe from TheCocktailDB API\". Looking at TheCocktailDB's documentation or common API patterns, a random recipe usually has a specific endpoint. The JSON conveniently provides this: `https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php`. I would configure the `URL` parameter of this `HTTP Request` node to be exactly that: `https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php`. No other specific options seem immediately necessary for a simple GET request for a random item. The `options` field would typically contain things like headers, authentication, or query parameters, but for this simple public API endpoint, it can remain empty.\n\nOnce the `HTTP Request` node successfully fetches the data, it will output the cocktail recipe, which will be in JSON format. The prompt explicitly says to \"convert the JSON response to binary data.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that handles data format transformations, specifically from JSON to binary. The **Move Binary Data** node is perfectly suited for this. So, I would connect the `main` output of the `HTTP Request` node to the `main` input of an `n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData` node, also `typeVersion 1`.\n\nWithin this `Move Binary Data` node, the key configuration is its `mode` parameter. It offers various transformation options, and one of them is `jsonToBinary`, which is precisely what's required here. By setting `mode` to `jsonToBinary`, the node will take the JSON output from the previous HTTP Request node and package it into a binary format, ready for saving as a file. Other options like `binaryToJson` or `moveBetweenItems` exist, but `jsonToBinary` is the specific one we need for this step.\n\nFinally, the last part of the requirement is to \"write it to a file named \"cocktail.json\"\". After we've converted the data to binary format using the `Move Binary Data` node, we need a way to save that binary data to a file on the n8n host system or a connected storage. The **Write Binary File** node is designed specifically for this purpose. So, the last connection would be from the `main` output of the `Move Binary Data` node to the `main` input of an `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile` node, again with `typeVersion 1`.\n\nFor this `Write Binary File` node, the most important parameter is the `fileName`. The prompt specifies \"cocktail.json\". So, I would configure the `fileName` parameter to be \"cocktail.json\". This tells the node exactly what to name the file it's creating. There might be other options like the destination path or overwrite settings, but the core requirement is just the file name. And with that, the workflow would be complete, fulfilling all the requirements laid out in the prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate a n8n workflow with a manual trigger connected to a Switch node.

Looking at the JSON, I find a node named \"Switch\" with type `n8n-nodes-base.switch` and `typeVersion 3`. This confirms my choice. I'll draw a connection from the `manualTrigger` node's main output to the `Switch` node's main input. This ensures that when the workflow is triggered, the initial empty data item from the manual trigger will flow into the Switch node, ready to be evaluated.\n\nNow, for the configuration of this Switch node. The prompt specifies that \"The Switch node should have 3 rules.\" The JSON's `parameters.rules.values` array clearly shows three objects, indicating that three rules have indeed been configured or at least set up as placeholders.\n- The first rule in the JSON has a condition defined: `leftValue: \"\"`, `rightValue: \"\"`, and an `operator` set to `equals`. This configuration, where both values are empty, would technically always evaluate to true if the values are indeed empty strings, which they might be if no specific data is being evaluated. Often, these are placeholders for a more specific condition that a user would later define, perhaps checking for a specific field's value.\n- The second and third rule entries are empty objects (`{}`). This means they are present as rules, but no conditions have been explicitly set for them yet. In a real scenario, I'd expect the user to define conditions here, for example, checking if a `status` field is \"pending\" or an `amount` is greater than 100. For now, they serve as empty rule slots.\n\nThe final piece of the puzzle for this workflow, according to the prompt, is that \"the 3rd rule should be connected to an Edit Fields node.\" This is where the output of one of the Switch node's branches leads. In the JSON, I see a node named \"Edit Fields\" which has the type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion 3.3`. The Set node, often labeled \"Edit Fields\" in n8n workflows, is perfect for adding, modifying, or removing fields from the data items that pass through it. It's a very flexible node for data manipulation.\n\nTo complete the connections, I'll link the output of the *third* rule (which corresponds to `index: 2` in a zero-indexed array) of the Switch node to the main input of the `Edit Fields` node. The JSON's `connections` section confirms this: `\"Switch\": {\"main\": [null, null, [{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This shows that the first two outputs of the Switch node are not connected (`null`), while the third output directs data to the `Edit Fields` node.\n\nAs for the `Edit Fields` node's own configuration, the JSON shows `parameters.options: {}`. This means that while the node is present and connected, no specific fields are currently being added or modified. This is common when setting up the workflow structure, with the actual data manipulation steps to be defined later based on the specific business logic. For instance, a user might later configure it to add a field like `status: \"processed\"` or `processedDate: \"{{ $now }}\"`. But for now, it's ready to receive data from the third rule branch.\n\nSo, the workflow flows like this: I click the \"Test workflow\" button, it sends an empty data item to the Switch node. The Switch node evaluates its three rules. If any data were passed to it, and assuming the first rule evaluates true (or if no conditions match and it falls through), the first two branches are unconnected. However, if the third rule were to evaluate true, or perhaps it's intended as a fallback, then the data would pass specifically to the \"Edit Fields\" node." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a Form Trigger and a Switch node connected to it. Include sample \"pinData\" for the Form Trigger.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow 8\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a\", \"formTitle\": \"test\", \"formFields\": {\"values\": [{\"fieldLabel\": \"test\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"n8n Form Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [620, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.switch\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [800, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"n8n Form Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so I'm looking at this workflow, and the first thing that jumps out is the request: \"Generate an n8n workflow with a Form Trigger and a Switch node connected to it.\" This immediately tells me I need two main components.\n\nI always like to start with the trigger, the thing that kicks off the whole process. In this case, the user specifically asked for a \"Form Trigger.\" Looking at the provided JSON, that's exactly what we have. So, my initial thought is, \"Right, I need to add an 'n8n Form Trigger' node to start.\" This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger` with `typeVersion 2`. It's perfect because it allows users to submit data via a web form, which is exactly what a Form Trigger does.\n\nNow, let's configure this Form Trigger. The JSON specifies `path: \"d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a\"`. This `path` is essentially the unique part of the URL where the form will be accessible. It's automatically generated, but it's important to note it makes the form distinct. Then, there's `formTitle: \"test\"`, which would be the title displayed at the top of the form. And for the fields, `formFields` is set with `values: [{\"fieldLabel\": \"test\"}]`. This means the form will have just one input field, and its label will be \"test.\" So, conceptually, someone filling out this form would see a title \"test\" and an input box labeled \"test.\"\n\nOne really important piece of information provided is the `pinData` for the \"n8n Form Trigger.\" This isn't something you configure *in* the node's parameters, but rather it represents sample data that the node *would output* when triggered. It shows two items: `{\"json\": {\"name\": \"First item\", \"code\": 1}}` and `{\"json\": {\"name\": \"Second item\", \"code\": 2}}`. This tells me that when this form is submitted, the output will be an array of items, and each item will have a `name` and a `code` property. This is vital for planning what comes next because it defines the data structure I'll be working with. For instance, if the form had multiple fields, say \"name\" and \"email\", the `pinData` would reflect that, maybe showing `{\"name\": \"John Doe\", \"email\": \"john@example.com\"}`. Here, it seems the single \"test\" field might map to either `name` or `code`, or perhaps the form is configured to produce structured data directly from a single input (e.g., a JSON string parsed by the form). The `pinData` effectively acts as a test payload.\n\nNext, the prompt asks for a \"Switch node connected to it.\" So, after the form is submitted, I need something to route the data based on some condition. A \"Switch\" node is the ideal choice for this, as its purpose is to direct workflow execution down different branches based on input data. So, I'll add a \"Switch\" node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.switch` with `typeVersion 2`.\n\nNow, how do I connect them? The JSON clearly shows `connections: {\"n8n Form Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the `main` output of the \"n8n Form Trigger\" should connect directly to the `main` input of the \"Switch\" node. Data will flow from the form directly into the Switch node.\n\nLooking at the Switch node's parameters in the JSON, they are empty: `{}`. This is common for a Switch node where the conditions are either left at their default (like \"is not empty\") or are expected to be configured later by the user based on the exact logic they need. For example, if I wanted to switch based on the `code` value from the `pinData`, I would typically configure a \"Value 1\" field to be `{{ $json.code }}` and then set up cases like \"is equal to 1\" or \"is equal to 2\" for different branches. Since it's empty, it implies a basic default configuration or a placeholder for future logic, but the fundamental connection and purpose are there.\n\nSo, to recap the flow: a user fills out the \"test\" form, submits it, and the data (like `{\"name\": \"First item\", \"code\": 1}`) is then passed directly into the Switch node. The Switch node would then evaluate this incoming data to determine which path the workflow should take next, though the specific conditions for that switch aren't defined in this JSON snippet. It's a foundational setup ready for further branching logic." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that downloads an image from a URL and adds the text \"This is n8n\" to it, positioning the text at X=300, Y=500 with a font size of 100, triggered manually.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Add text to an image downloaded from the internet\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [620, 170]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"This is n8n\", \"options\": {}, \"fontSize\": 100, \"operation\": \"text\", \"positionX\": 300, \"positionY\": 500}, \"name\": \"Edit Image\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.editImage\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1020, 170]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/docs.n8n.io\/assets\/img\/final-workflow.f380b957.png\", \"options\": {}, \"responseFormat\": \"file\"}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 170]}], \"connections\": {\"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Image\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think this through. The user wants to create an n8n workflow that downloads an image, adds some specific text to it, and is triggered manually. This gives me a pretty clear idea of the components I'll need.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The user explicitly said \"triggered manually\". So, the most appropriate node for that would be the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and typeVersion 1. This is perfect because it means the workflow won't run on a schedule or an external event, but only when someone manually hits the 'Execute Workflow' button in the n8n interface. It doesn't require any special parameters, it just acts as the initial signal to start the process.\n\nAfter the workflow is triggered, the very next step, according to the prompt, is to \"download an image from a URL\". For downloading content from the internet, especially an image from a URL, an `HTTP Request` node is the standard choice. So, I'd bring in an `HTTP Request` node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` and typeVersion 1. I'll connect its main output from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the main input of this `HTTP Request` node. This way, when the manual trigger fires, it tells the HTTP Request node to go fetch something.\n\nNow, how do I configure this `HTTP Request` node? The core requirement is to download an image from a URL. So, in its parameters, I'd set the `url`. While I won't specify the exact URL here, it would be the URL pointing to the image the user wants to download. Importantly, since this is an image that will be processed further, I need to make sure the response is handled correctly. The `responseFormat` parameter is crucial here, and I'd set it to `file`. This tells n8n to treat the response body as a binary file, which is exactly what we need for image manipulation later. The `options` parameter can usually be left at its default unless there are specific headers or authentication needed, but for a simple public image download, the default is fine.\n\nOnce the image is downloaded by the `HTTP Request` node, the next part of the prompt is to \"add the text 'This is n8n' to it, positioning the text at X=300, Y=500 with a font size of 100\". This clearly points to an image manipulation node. n8n has a dedicated `Edit Image` node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.editImage` and typeVersion 1. This is the perfect fit for this task. I'll connect the main output of the `HTTP Request` node to the main input of this `Edit Image` node. This means the downloaded image file will be passed directly into the image editor.\n\nNow, to configure the `Edit Image` node. The prompt is very specific.\n- The `operation` parameter needs to be set to `text`, as we are adding text, not resizing or cropping.\n- The `text` parameter itself should be set to \"This is n8n\", exactly as specified.\n- For positioning, the `positionX` parameter would be set to 300, and `positionY` to 500.\n- Finally, the `fontSize` parameter is specified as 100.\nAll other `options` can typically be left at their defaults unless further styling like color or font family is required, but the prompt doesn't ask for that, so keeping it simple is best. This node will take the incoming image, apply the text according to these specifications, and then output the modified image.\n\nAt this point, the workflow would be complete according to the prompt: manual trigger, download image, edit image by adding text. What happens to the final image isn't specified, but it would be available as output from the `Edit Image` node for further actions like saving to disk, uploading, or sending via email, depending on what the user wants to do with the modified image. But based on the prompt's scope, the image editing is the final processing step." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers manually, then retrieves a Redis key named \"hello\" using configured credentials.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [270, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"key\": \"hello\", \"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"get\"}, \"name\": \"Redis\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.redis\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [470, 320]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Redis\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think this through. The user wants to create an n8n workflow that starts manually and then goes off to fetch a specific key from Redis.\n\nFirst things first, if a workflow needs to be triggered manually by a user, I definitely need a manual trigger. So, I'd start by pulling in a `manualTrigger` node. Looking at the JSON, yes, it's an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This is perfect because it provides that simple \"click to execute\" functionality directly from the n8n UI, which directly addresses the \"triggers manually\" part of the prompt. No complex scheduling or external webhooks needed here, just a straightforward manual kick-off.\n\nNow, once that workflow is triggered, the next step is to actually retrieve something from Redis. To interact with Redis, n8n has a dedicated node for it. So, after the manual trigger, I'd bring in a Redis node. In the JSON, I see `n8n-nodes-base.redis` with `typeVersion 1`. That's exactly what I'd expect to use for this purpose. It's purpose-built for Redis operations, so it saves me from having to build HTTP requests or custom functions to talk to a Redis instance.\n\nNext, I need to configure this Redis node. The prompt specifically asks to \"retrieve a Redis key named 'hello'\". So, for the operation, I'd set it to `get`, because that's how you retrieve a value associated with a key in Redis. And for the key itself, it's explicitly stated as \"hello\", so I'd put \"hello\" into the `key` parameter. This directly maps to the `{\"key\": \"hello\", \"operation\": \"get\"}` I see in the JSON, which makes perfect sense.\n\nOf course, to actually connect to a Redis instance and perform that `get` operation, the Redis node will need credentials. It can't just magically connect. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"redis\": \"redis-docker_creds\"}`. This indicates that a Redis credential set, named something like \"redis-docker_creds\" (the specific name isn't important, just that it exists), would be configured within n8n. This credential would hold all the necessary details like the Redis host, port, potentially a password, or whatever is needed to authenticate with the Redis server. The Redis node then uses these credentials to establish the connection behind the scenes. Without these credentials, the node wouldn't be able to communicate with the Redis server at all.\n\nFinally, the connection between these two nodes is simple and direct. The output of the `manualTrigger` node needs to flow into the input of the `Redis` node. This is a standard `main` connection. So, once the manual trigger is activated, it passes an empty item (or a default trigger item) to the Redis node, signaling it to execute its configured operation. The JSON confirms this with `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Redis\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`, showing a direct main connection from the trigger to the Redis node.\n\nThat pretty much covers it. It's a very straightforward two-node workflow for a specific, simple task. No loops, no conditional logic, just trigger and retrieve." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers on a new Shopify customer and creates a contact in Mautic, mapping first name, last name, and email.

The goal is to capture new Shopify customers and push their basic information into Mautic, plus add a helpful reminder.\n\nFirst things first, we need a way to detect when a new customer is created in Shopify. So, the very first node I'd reach for is a trigger. Looking at the requirements, a Shopify trigger seems like the perfect fit. I'd add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.shopifyTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed to listen for events from Shopify.\n\nOnce I have that `Shopify Trigger` node placed, I need to configure it. I'd name it something descriptive like \"On new customer\" so it's clear what it does at a glance. The crucial part here is setting the `topic`. Since we want to trigger on a *new* customer, the `customers\/create` topic is exactly what we need. This tells n8n to listen for that specific event from Shopify. For authentication, it would be set to `accessToken`, and an appropriate Shopify API access token credential would need to be linked here. This credential would handle the secure connection to the Shopify store, but the specific ID or value isn't something I'd be dealing with directly in the design phase; it's handled by n8n's credential system.\n\nNow that we have the trigger set up, what happens when a new customer is detected? We need to create a contact in Mautic. This means the next logical step is to add a Mautic node. So, I'd bring in a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.mautic` with `typeVersion: 1`. I'd name this \"Create contact\" to clearly state its function.\n\nThis Mautic node needs to receive the customer's data from the Shopify trigger. The connection would naturally flow from the \"On new customer\" node's `main` output to the \"Create contact\" node's `main` input. This ensures that when the Shopify trigger fires, the customer data it receives is passed along to the Mautic node.\n\nInside the \"Create contact\" node, we need to map the customer's details. The prompt specifically asks for first name, last name, and email. The Shopify trigger will provide this data in its output JSON. So, for the `email` field in the Mautic node, I'd use an expression like `={{$node[\"On new customer\"].json[\"email\"]}}`. This dynamically pulls the email address from the data output by the previous node, \"On new customer.\" Similarly, for `firstName`, I'd use `={{$node[\"On new customer\"].json[\"first_name\"]}}`, and for `lastName`, I'd use `={{$node[\"On new customer\"].json[\"last_name\"]}}`. This ensures the correct data is extracted and sent to Mautic. Just like with the Shopify node, this Mautic node also requires credentials for authenticating with the Mautic instance, which would be set up generically as a Mautic API credential. Any additional fields that might be needed in the future would be added under the `additionalFields` parameter, but for now, we're sticking to the basics as requested.\n\nFinally, the prompt asks for a note reminding the user how to add more fields. This isn't a processing step but an informational one, crucial for user experience and workflow documentation. For this, a `stickyNote` node is perfect. I'd add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.stickyNote` with `typeVersion: 1`. I'd place it near the \"Create contact\" node, perhaps below it, so it's clearly associated.\n\nThe `stickyNote` node doesn't have any inputs or outputs, it's just a visual element. I'd configure its `content` parameter to include the desired reminder, something like: \"### Add more fields to Mautic\\nBy default, the first name, last name and email are pushed to Mautic. If you require more fields, add it in the `Create contact` node.\" I'd also adjust its `width` and `height` to make sure the note is readable and fits well within the workflow canvas. This note is just for documentation and doesn't affect the data flow itself." } { "prompt": "Generate the JSON representation of an n8n sub-workflow named \"My Sub-Workflow 1\" triggered by another workflow, containing a \"No Op\" node to be replaced with custom logic.

When I'm thinking about building a workflow, the very first thing I consider is its trigger \u2013 how does it start?\n\nThe prompt explicitly states this is a sub-workflow named \"My Sub-Workflow 1\" that's \"triggered by another workflow.\" This immediately tells me I can't use a standard HTTP Request or a Cron node. I need a specific trigger designed for inter-workflow communication.\n\nSo, my first step would be to add the **Execute Workflow Trigger** node. This is perfect for what we need because it allows a parent workflow to call and pass data into this workflow. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`, and the JSON specifies its `typeVersion` as `1.1`. I'll name it \"When Executed by Another Workflow\" as per the provided structure. For its position on the canvas, `[260, 340]` seems like a reasonable starting point, giving it some space. This trigger node usually doesn't require any specific parameters to be set within its configuration, which aligns with the empty `parameters` object in the JSON. It just sits there, waiting for another workflow to initiate it.\n\nNow that I have the entry point, what's the next step? The prompt mentions a \"No Op\" node that's meant to be replaced with custom logic later. This is a common pattern for creating templates or placeholders. A \"No Op\" node is incredibly simple; it just takes the input data and passes it straight through to its output without any modification or operation. It's like a transparent pipe.\n\nSo, the next node I'd add is a **No Op** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.noOp`. I'll give it the descriptive name \"Replace me with your logic,\" which makes it clear for anyone using this template what needs to be done. Looking at the JSON, its ID is `b5942df6-0160-4ef7-965d-57583acdc8aa`. Similar to the trigger, a \"No Op\" node typically doesn't have any parameters to configure, so the empty `parameters` object makes sense. I'd place it to the right of the trigger node, at `[520, 340]`, maintaining a clean left-to-right flow. The `typeVersion` isn't explicitly listed for this node in the JSON, but for `noOp` nodes, it often defaults to `1.0` as it's a very fundamental and stable node type.\n\nWith both nodes in place, I need to connect them so that data can flow. The `connections` section of the JSON clearly shows this. The \"When Executed by Another Workflow\" node needs to connect its `main` output to the `main` input of the \"Replace me with your logic\" node. So, when the parent workflow triggers this sub-workflow, any data it sends will come into the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" and then immediately be passed along to the \"No Op\" node. This sets up the basic pipeline: trigger -> placeholder for logic.\n\nFinally, looking at the overall workflow metadata, the name \"My Sub-Workflow 1\" is set correctly. The workflow is initially `active: false`, which is standard for a new workflow until it's ready to be deployed. Other details like `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, `id`, and `versionId` are system-generated and mostly for internal tracking. The `settings` object, with `{\"executionOrder\": \"v1\"}`, defines how the nodes will be processed, which is the default and expected behavior. The `repo_name`, `repo_owner`, and `repo_path` suggest this workflow is part of a version-controlled repository, which is a good practice for managing workflows, but doesn't impact the functional design of the nodes themselves. This simple two-node structure effectively provides a functional template for a reusable sub-workflow." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow in n8n that triggers manually, reads files from disk, and uploads them to a specified Google Drive folder using service account authentication.

The request specifies a manual trigger. So, I'd begin by pulling in the **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and this particular one is `typeVersion: 1`. This node is absolutely perfect for the requirement because it does exactly what its name suggests: it allows the user to initiate the workflow by simply clicking a button in the n8n interface. It doesn't require any complex configuration, just sits there waiting for that manual push.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next logical step, according to the request, is to read files from disk. For this, I'll use the **Read\/Write Files from Disk** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.readWriteFile`, and here we see `typeVersion: 1`. This node is ideal because it provides the necessary functionality to interact with the local file system where n8n is running or has access. When configuring this node, I would set its operation to \"Read File\" or \"Read Files\" depending on whether we expect a single file or multiple. The critical part here would be specifying the file path or a directory path and a file pattern to ensure we're targeting the correct files. For example, if I wanted to back up all `*.txt` files from a specific folder, I'd input that path and pattern. The node would then output the file content, typically as binary data, along with metadata like the file name, which is exactly what we'll need for the next step. I'd connect the `main` output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node to the `main` input of this \"Read\/Write Files from Disk\" node. This ensures that as soon as the workflow is triggered, it proceeds directly to reading the files.\n\nNow that we have the files read from disk, the core requirement is to upload them to Google Drive. The node for this is clearly the **Google Drive** node, which is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDrive`, and in this instance, it's `typeVersion: 3`. This node is the direct solution for interacting with Google Drive APIs. When configuring it, the most important piece is the authentication. The request specifically asks for service account authentication, and looking at the provided JSON, it's correctly set with `authentication: \"serviceAccount\"`. This is crucial for unattended operations, as it doesn't require a user to manually authorize each time; instead, it uses a pre-configured service account with appropriate permissions.\n\nWithin the Google Drive node, I'd need to set the operation. For uploading files, the operation would typically be \"Upload File\". Then, I'd need to specify where the files go. The JSON shows `driveId: \"My Drive\"` which means it's targeting the primary Google Drive for the configured service account. The `folderId` is set to `\"root\"`, meaning the files would be uploaded directly to the top-level \"My Drive\" folder. However, the user prompt mentions \"a specified Google Drive folder,\" so in a real-world scenario, I would ensure that `folderId` is configured to point to a specific folder ID or path that the user defines, rather than just the root. This is where I'd likely use an expression to dynamically select a folder based on a previous step's data, or simply input a static folder ID if it's always the same destination. The input data from the \"Read\/Write Files from Disk\" node, which contains the file's binary content and name, would automatically flow into this Google Drive node, allowing it to pick up the files for upload. The connection would be from the `main` output of \"Read\/Write Files from Disk\" to the `main` input of \"Google Drive\".\n\nRegarding error handling and logging, which were also mentioned in the user prompt but aren't explicitly detailed in the simple JSON provided: after the Google Drive node, I would absolutely add branches for error handling. For instance, I'd connect the \"Google Drive\" node's `error` output (if the node supports it, or use a separate \"On Error\" trigger for the whole workflow) to a \"Log\" node or a \"NoOp\" node that logs the error message. I might also connect a \"Success\" branch from the \"Google Drive\" node's `main` output to a \"Log\" node that confirms the upload was successful, perhaps including the names of the uploaded files. This provides visibility into the workflow's execution. Without these additional nodes, the workflow is functional but lacks the robustness for production use, making debugging and monitoring more challenging. The current JSON just shows the successful path." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON with nodes for manual trigger, setting fields (name, param, status), executing another workflow, and a no-op, connected sequentially.

The prompt specifies a manual trigger, setting fields, executing another workflow, and then a no-op, all connected sequentially.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a way to kick off. Since the requirement is for a \"manual trigger,\" the obvious choice is a `manualTrigger` node. This node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`, is perfect because it allows the user to initiate the workflow directly from the n8n interface, typically by clicking a \"Test workflow\" button. It's the simplest way to start something for testing or ad-hoc runs. I'll name it \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\" to be very clear about its purpose.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions \"setting fields (name, param, status).\" For this, a \"Set\" node is ideal. The `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, with its `typeVersion 3.3`, is designed precisely for adding or modifying data items in the workflow's incoming JSON. It's really flexible for preparing data for subsequent nodes. I'll connect the \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\" node directly to this \"Set\" node. The main output of the trigger will flow into the input of the Set node.\n\nWithin this \"Edit Fields\" node (that's a good descriptive name for it), I need to configure the specific assignments. The prompt says to set \"name\" to \"caco\", \"param\" to \"2\", and \"status\" to \"full\".\nSo, I'll add three assignments:\n* One for \"name\", setting its value to \"caco\". I'll make sure it's a string type.\n* Another for \"param\", setting its value to \"2\". Also as a string, though depending on downstream usage, it might eventually be converted to a number. For now, string is fine and often safer.\n* And finally, one for \"status\", setting its value to \"full\". This will also be a string.\nThe Set node will take whatever empty or initial data comes from the manual trigger and add these three fields to it, making them available for the next steps.\n\nAfter setting these fields, the workflow needs to \"execute another workflow.\" This immediately tells me I need an `executeWorkflow` node. This is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is really powerful as it allows you to chain workflows, either by calling a sub-workflow and waiting for its result, or just triggering it in the background. I'll connect the \"Edit Fields\" node's main output to the input of this \"Execute Workflow\" node. For this node, I'd need to configure which specific workflow ID to execute. In a real scenario, there would be a particular ID here, like \"vEm3SAapmMoorLeC\" as seen in the provided data, but I wouldn't know that without context or prior setup. For now, I'll just note that a workflow ID would be specified here. The options parameter for this node is currently empty, meaning it will use default execution settings, which is fine for this sequential flow.\n\nFinally, the prompt mentions a \"no-op\" at the end. A \"No Operation, do nothing\" node is exactly what that describes. The `n8n-nodes-base.noOp` node with `typeVersion 1` is perfect for this. It literally does nothing but pass through the data it receives. It's often used as a final endpoint in a branch, or as a placeholder, or just to make the workflow visually complete. I'll connect the \"Execute Workflow\" node's main output to the input of this \"No Operation, do nothing\" node. It essentially just marks the end of this specific sequence in the workflow." } { "prompt": "Create a JSON object representing an n8n workflow with a single Airtable node configured to accept Airtable application and table URLs via regular expression validation.

The regex itself needs to enforce the correct URL format.\n\nMy first thought, given the prompt, is that this is going to be a very focused workflow. Since it specifies a \"single Airtable node,\" I know I won't need a trigger, or any other processing nodes. This workflow isn't designed to *do* something in a sequence, but rather to define a pre-configured node for later use or as a template.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need to do is identify the core component: the Airtable node.\n\n* **Node Type:** I'll definitely need an `Airtable` node. In n8n, this translates to the type `n8n-nodes-base.airtable`. This node is specifically designed for interacting with Airtable, handling all the necessary API calls, authentication, and data structuring. It's the only logical choice here.\n* **Node Version:** The provided JSON specifies `typeVersion: 1`. So, I'll stick with that version for this node. While different versions might offer new features or slight changes in parameter names, for this exercise, I'll adhere to the specified version.\n\nNow that I have the node selected, I need to configure its parameters based on the prompt's requirements. The key here is the \"regular expression validation\" for the `application` and `table` URLs.\n\nInside the Airtable node's `parameters` block, I'd expect to see fields related to how it connects to Airtable and what data it operates on. The prompt specifically calls out \"application\" (which typically refers to an Airtable base) and \"table\" (which refers to a specific table or view within a base).\n\nLet's look at the `application` parameter first:\n\n* **`application` parameter configuration:**\n * The prompt asks for URL input with regex validation. Looking at the JSON, I see `application: {\"__rl\": true, \"mode\": \"url\", \"value\": \"\", \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"}`.\n * `__rl: true`: This is a crucial flag. It tells n8n that this field should enable \"regular expression validation.\" This directly addresses one of the core requirements.\n * `mode: \"url\"`: This indicates that the input expected for this field is a URL. This is fitting, as we're looking to validate an Airtable application (base) URL.\n * `value: \"\"`: The value is empty. This makes sense; it's a template or a configuration where the actual URL would be provided by a user later, or dynamically retrieved.\n * `__regex: \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\" `: This is the actual regex.\n * I need to ensure this matches typical Airtable base URLs. Airtable base URLs usually look something like `https:\/\/airtable.com\/appXXXXXXXXXXXXXX`.\n * The regex `https:\/\/airtable.com\/` matches the fixed part of the domain.\n * `([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})` is a capturing group that looks for at least two alphanumeric characters. This is a good, general pattern to capture the `appXXXXXXXXXXXXXX` part of the URL without being overly specific to 'app' or fixed length, allowing for variations. This seems robust enough to validate a general Airtable base ID portion of the URL.\n\nNext, I'll move on to the `table` parameter.\n\n* **`table` parameter configuration:**\n * Similar to `application`, the JSON shows `table: {\"__rl\": true, \"mode\": \"url\", \"value\": \"\", \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"}`.\n * Again, `__rl: true`, `mode: \"url\"`, and `value: \"\"` are set for the same reasons as the `application` field: enable regex validation, expect a URL, and keep the initial value empty for user input.\n * `__regex: \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\" `: This regex needs to validate an Airtable table or view URL.\n * A typical Airtable table or view URL would look like `https:\/\/airtable.com\/appXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\/tblYYYYYYYYYYYYYY` or `https:\/\/airtable.com\/appXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\/viewZZZZZZZZZZZZZ`.\n * The regex `https:\/\/airtable.com\/` matches the domain.\n * `[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}` matches the base ID part (like `appXXXXXXXXXXXXXX`), which is correctly placed *before* the table\/view ID.\n * `\/` matches the slash separating the base ID from the table\/view ID.\n * `([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})` matches the actual table or view ID (like `tblYYYYYYYYYYYYYY` or `viewZZZZZZZZZZZZZ`). This is another general alphanumeric pattern that's appropriate.\n * This regex successfully captures the structure of an Airtable table or view URL, including both the base and the specific table\/view identifier.\n\nFinally, I'd review the overall workflow structure. The prompt clearly stated a \"single Airtable node,\" and that's precisely what the JSON contains. There are no connections, which makes perfect sense for a standalone node definition. The `meta` block contains standard n8n workflow metadata like the `instanceId`, which is automatically generated and doesn't require any design input from my side.\n\nSo, the design process concludes with a single Airtable node, configured with two URL parameters, both utilizing regex validation to ensure the input adheres to expected Airtable URL formats. No other nodes or connections are necessary for this specific request." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON configuration that retrieves content from a Google Docs document specified by a URL and responds to a webhook with the document's content.

The core requirement is to take a webhook trigger, pull content from a Google Docs document, and then send that content back as a webhook response.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way for this workflow to be kicked off externally. Looking at the prompt, it explicitly mentions \"responds to a webhook,\" which implies an incoming request will start everything. So, the very first node I'd reach for would be a trigger. The most suitable trigger for an incoming HTTP request is definitely a **Webhook** node. This particular workflow uses `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is a standard and robust choice for handling incoming HTTP requests. I'd set its `responseMode` to `responseNode` which means that the actual HTTP response will be handled by a later node in the workflow, allowing me to process data before sending a final reply. The `path` parameter would be automatically generated or set, defining the unique URL endpoint for this specific webhook.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered by an incoming request, the next logical step is to actually get the content from the Google Docs document. To interact with Google Docs, I'll need a dedicated node for that service. The `Google Docs` node seems like the obvious choice here. The workflow uses `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion: 2`. This node is designed specifically for operations like reading, writing, or listing documents in Google Docs. I'd connect the `Webhook` node's \"main\" output to the \"main\" input of this `Google Docs` node, ensuring that when the webhook fires, the Google Docs operation is initiated. For its configuration, the `operation` parameter would clearly need to be set to `get`, as the goal is to *retrieve* content. The crucial piece of information for this node would be the `documentURL`, where the specific URL of the Google Docs file would be configured. I'd also know that this node would require credentials, a Google Docs account in this case, to authenticate and access the document. It's vital for it to have the necessary permissions.\n\nAfter successfully retrieving the document content from the `Google Docs` node, the final step, according to the prompt, is to \"respond to a webhook with the document's content.\" Since I previously set the `Webhook` trigger node's `responseMode` to `responseNode`, I now need a node that can send back the actual HTTP response. The `Respond to Webhook` node is perfect for this. It's `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion: 1.1`. I would connect the \"main\" output of the `Google Docs` node to the \"main\" input of this `Respond to Webhook` node. This ensures that the data processed by Google Docs, specifically the document content, is available to this response node.\n\nFor configuring the `Respond to Webhook` node, the prompt specifies responding with the document's content. Therefore, the `respondWith` parameter would be set to `text`, and the `responseBody` would use an expression to pull the content directly from the previous `Google Docs` node's output. The JSON shows `={{ $json.content }}`, which implies that the `Google Docs` node, when performing a \"get\" operation, returns the document's text content in a field named `content` within its output JSON. This is a common pattern in n8n where data from a preceding node is accessed using expressions.\n\nFinally, while not a node, the workflow also has tags associated with it: \"Day5\", \"PromptEngineer\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding\". These are really helpful for organizing workflows, especially in a larger n8n instance, making them easy to find and categorize. It's good practice to add relevant tags to describe the workflow's purpose and context.

The goal is to filter user data based on whether their profile name contains \"an\". I've got the blueprint here, so I'll walk through how I'd put it together, step by step.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick it off and get some data flowing. For this particular scenario, where we want to manually test or trigger the workflow with some predefined data, a manual trigger is perfect. So, I'd begin by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and it's using `typeVersion: 1`. This node is ideal because it allows me to just click 'Test workflow' in the n8n interface, and it immediately pushes the example data, which is provided right here in the `pinData` for the trigger node. This example data includes several user profiles, each with an `id`, `email`, `username`, and importantly, a `profile` object containing a `name` field, which is what we'll be inspecting. This data setup is really helpful for testing the filtering logic.\n\nNext, after the trigger, I see an \"Edit Fields\" node. Looking at the JSON, this is actually a **Set** node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.2`. I'd connect the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node's `main` output to the \"Edit Fields\" node's `main` input. Now, this \"Edit Fields\" node, as configured here, has empty parameters, which means it's not actually modifying any fields at this stage. It's essentially acting as a passthrough. While it could be used to add new fields, rename existing ones, or transform values, in this specific configuration, it's just passing the data from the trigger straight through. Perhaps it was a placeholder for future data preparation or a step to ensure data format consistency, even if it's not actively changing anything right now. It's part of the flow, so we include it.\n\nThe core of the filtering logic comes next. I need a way to check a condition and then branch the workflow based on whether that condition is true or false. An **IF** node is the absolute best choice for this. So, I'd add an IF node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.if` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'd connect the `main` output of the \"Edit Fields\" node to the `main` input of this IF node. Now, for the crucial part: configuring the condition. The user prompt specifies filtering based on whether the `profile name contains \"an\"`. Looking at the `pinData` from the trigger, the profile name is nested under `profile.name`. So, for the condition, I'd access that data using an expression: `{{ $json.profile.name }}`. I would then set the operation to `contains` and the value to check against as `an`. This setup ensures that for each incoming item, n8n will check if the text string found in the `profile.name` field includes the substring \"an\".\n\nFinally, based on the outcome of the IF node, we need two separate paths: one for true and one for false. For this, the workflow uses two more **Set** nodes.\nFirst, for the \"True\" outcome, I'd add a **Set** node named \"True\", with `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.2`. I'd connect the `main` output of the IF node's \"True\" branch to the `main` input of this \"True\" node. Similar to the \"Edit Fields\" node, this \"True\" node is also configured with empty parameters, meaning it doesn't modify the data. It simply serves as an endpoint for the items that satisfy the condition, effectively collecting them on this branch.\n\nSecond, for the \"False\" outcome, I'd add another **Set** node named \"False\", again `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.2`. I'd connect the `main` output of the IF node's \"False\" branch to the `main` input of this \"False\" node. Just like its \"True\" counterpart, this \"False\" node is also configured with empty parameters and acts as a collection point for items that *do not* satisfy the condition. This provides a clear separation of data based on the filtering logic." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object representing an n8n workflow for sending WhatsApp messages via the WhatsApp Business Cloud API when the \"Test Workflow\" button is clicked.

The main goal here is pretty clear: we need to send a WhatsApp message using the WhatsApp Business Cloud API, and the whole thing should kick off when someone explicitly clicks a \"Test Workflow\" button.\n\nFirst things first, to meet that requirement of starting when a button is clicked, I immediately think of a trigger node. The perfect fit for this scenario, where the user directly initiates the workflow, is a **Manual Trigger** node.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is really straightforward; it doesn't need any complex parameters. Its sole purpose is to act as the starting point, waiting for a user to press that \"Test workflow\" button in the n8n UI. It literally does what its name implies: provides a manual way to trigger the workflow. I wouldn't expect `typeVersion` changes to drastically alter its core functionality, it's usually about minor UI or internal improvements.\n\nOnce that trigger is in place and the workflow is initiated, the next logical step, based on the prompt, is to actually send the WhatsApp message. For interacting with the WhatsApp Business Cloud API, n8n provides a dedicated node, which is fantastic because it abstracts away a lot of the API complexities.\n\nSo, I would then add a **WhatsApp Business Cloud** node. This would be of `type: n8n-nodes-base.whatsApp` and, as per the provided structure, `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed for sending messages, handling templates, and other WhatsApp Business Cloud API operations.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The `manualTrigger` simply needs to tell the `whatsApp` node to execute. There's no complex data transformation needed from the trigger itself for this simple \"send a message\" use case. So, a direct `main` connection from the `manualTrigger` to the `whatsApp` node makes perfect sense. The `manualTrigger`'s output will simply be an item to pass along, signaling the `whatsApp` node to proceed.\n\nNext, I need to configure this **WhatsApp Business Cloud** node to actually send a message.\n* The primary parameter I'd look at first is `operation`. For sending a message, it needs to be set to `send`. This tells the node its specific task.\n* Then, there are the specifics of the message itself. I need to tell WhatsApp *from* which number (or rather, which `phoneNumberId`) the message originates within my WhatsApp Business Account. This would be a specific identifier provided by the WhatsApp Business Cloud API setup. It's a critical piece of information for the API to know which sender account to use.\n* Equally important is `recipientPhoneNumber`. This is where the actual phone number of the person receiving the WhatsApp message would be entered. This must be a valid, WhatsApp-enabled phone number.\n* And, of course, the message content itself. The `textBody` parameter is where the actual text message that will be sent to the recipient goes.\n* There are also `additionalFields` and `requestOptions`, which are currently empty. For a basic text message like this, they aren't strictly necessary. `additionalFields` could be used for more advanced features like sending specific templates or media, while `requestOptions` would be for low-level HTTP request modifications, if I needed to fine-tune the API call itself. But for this simple text message scenario, they can remain blank.\n\nFinally, for the **WhatsApp Business Cloud** node to function, it needs credentials to authenticate with the WhatsApp Business Cloud API. I'd ensure that a WhatsApp API credential, containing the necessary authentication tokens and details for my WhatsApp Business account, is selected or configured.

I'll think through each piece of it, just as if I were assembling it from scratch based on the user's requirements.\n\nFirst, I need to understand the core request: \"Create an n8n workflow that triggers manually and then sends an email using Mandrill.\" This tells me two key things: how it starts, and what the main action is.\n\nSo, the very first thing I'll need is a way to kick off the workflow. The user explicitly said \"triggers manually.\" For this, n8n has a dedicated node that's perfect: the `Manual Trigger` node. I'd drag that onto the canvas.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node is designed precisely for workflows that need to be initiated by a user clicking a button in the n8n interface. It provides a simple starting point without needing a schedule, an incoming webhook, or any external event. It essentially just says, \"Okay, start processing now.\" I typically leave its parameters empty, as it doesn't need any specific configuration beyond its inherent function of triggering. Its default name, \"On clicking 'execute'\", is very clear about its purpose.\n\nAlright, so the workflow starts. What's next? The prompt says \"sends an email using Mandrill.\" This immediately tells me I'll need a node that can interact with the Mandrill API. n8n conveniently has a pre-built integration for Mandrill, so I'll search for and add the `Mandrill` node. This is much simpler than trying to use an HTTP Request node and manually construct the API calls.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.mandrill`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node abstracts the complexity of the Mandrill API, allowing me to specify email parameters directly within the node's settings without writing custom code. It's the most straightforward and robust way to send emails via Mandrill in n8n.\n\nNow that I have the `Manual Trigger` and the `Mandrill` node, I need to connect them. The `Manual Trigger`'s job is simply to initiate the flow, and the `Mandrill` node is the next, and in this case, final action. So, I'll connect the primary output of the `Manual Trigger` node to the primary input of the `Mandrill` node. This ensures that when I manually trigger the workflow, the `Mandrill` node will execute immediately afterward.\n\n* **Connection:** From \"On clicking 'execute'\" (`manualTrigger`) to \"Mandrill\" (`mandrill`).\n* **Reasoning:** This creates a linear flow. The trigger node sends a signal down the line, and the Mandrill node picks up that signal and performs its configured action. No data is really passed here from the trigger, just the initiation signal.\n\nFinally, let's configure the `Mandrill` node to meet the specific requirements:\n\n* The user wants to use the \"welcomeemailv2\" template. So, in the `Mandrill` node's parameters, I'll find the field for `template` and input \"welcomeemailv2\" there.\n* The email needs to go \"to 'user@example.com'\". I'll set the `toEmail` parameter to \"user@example.com\".\n* It needs to be \"from 'example@yourdomain.com'\". I'll set the `fromEmail` parameter to \"example@yourdomain.com\".\n* Crucially, the prompt mentions \"Make sure to include Mandrill credentials.\" The `Mandrill` node has a specific section for credentials. Here, I wouldn't enter the actual API key directly. Instead, n8n uses a credential system. I would select a pre-configured Mandrill API credential, which in the provided structure is referred to as \"mandrill_creds\". This links the node to the secure stored API key.\n\nThe `options` parameter is shown as empty, which implies no other specific Mandrill options (like subject, from name, tags, etc.) are required for this particular \"welcomeemailv2\" template, as these might already be defined within the template itself on the Mandrill platform.\n\nSo, to recap, I've got the `Manual Trigger` starting things, directly connected to the `Mandrill` node, which is configured with the target and sender emails, the specific template name, and linked to the necessary Mandrill API credentials. This looks like a complete and efficient solution for the given prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that uses an \"Error Trigger\" to send error notifications to Mattermost and then to Twilio, including the workflow name, ID, and the last executed node in the Mattermost message.

The goal is to send error notifications, first to Mattermost, then to Twilio, with specific details included.\n\nFirst off, the prompt clearly states this workflow should respond to errors. This immediately tells me what my starting point, my trigger, needs to be.\n\nI'll begin by adding an **Error Trigger** node. This is a specialized trigger in n8n designed to listen for and activate when other workflows encounter unhandled errors. It's perfect for this scenario because it will provide all the necessary context about the error.\n* Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.errorTrigger`.\n* The `typeVersion` will be `1`.\n* For configuration, it's quite straightforward; this node doesn't usually require any specific parameters to be set up, so its `parameters` will just be an empty object `{}`. It just sits there, ready to catch errors.\n\nNow that I have the trigger, the next step is to send the first notification, which the prompt says should go to Mattermost.\n\nSo, I'll connect the output of my \"Error Trigger\" node to a **Mattermost** node. This seems like the logical next step in the flow.\n* Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.mattermost`.\n* The `typeVersion` will also be `1`.\n* The connection will be from the \"Error Trigger\"'s `main` output to the \"Mattermost\" node's `main` input. This ensures that the data containing the error details from the `Error Trigger` is passed directly to the `Mattermost` node.\n* For the Mattermost node's configuration, the most important part is the `message`. The prompt asks for the workflow name, ID, and the last executed node. The \"Error Trigger\" node provides all this information in its output. So, I'll use expressions to dynamically build the message:\n * I'll start with a general statement like \"The workflow named '\".\n * Then, I'll access the workflow name using an expression like `{{$json[\"workflow\"][\"name\"]}}`. The `$json` here refers to the entire JSON data coming from the previous node (the Error Trigger).\n * I'll continue the message with \"with the ID \" and then pull the workflow ID with `{{$json[\"workflow\"][\"id\"]}}`.\n * And finally, add \"has encountered an error. The last node that was executed was \" and insert `{{$json[\"execution\"][\"lastNodeExecuted\"]}}`. This provides crucial debugging information.\n * The `attachments` array will be empty as there's no requirement for file attachments.\n * `otherOptions` will also be an empty object, as no specific Mattermost features like channel or icon overrides are requested.\n* For `credentials`, I'd set up a pre-existing Mattermost API credential, perhaps named \"Mattermost\". The actual API key or webhook URL would be stored securely within n8n's credential manager, not directly in this workflow definition.\n\nFinally, after the Mattermost notification is sent, the requirement is to also send a notification to Twilio. This means the workflow should continue from the Mattermost node to a Twilio node.\n\nSo, I'll connect the output of the \"Mattermost\" node to a **Twilio** node.\n* Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.twilio`.\n* The `typeVersion` will be `1`.\n* The connection will be from the \"Mattermost\"'s `main` output to the \"Twilio\" node's `main` input. This makes sure that the Twilio message is sent *after* the Mattermost message.\n* For the Twilio node's `message`, the prompt specifies including the workflow name and ID. I can use a similar approach to Mattermost, pulling data from the original \"Error Trigger\" context. While `$json` might work if the Mattermost node doesn't alter the data, for clarity and robustness, I often prefer to explicitly reference the original trigger node when I know the data originates there, especially for critical data like workflow details. So, the message would be: \"=The workflow named '{{$node[\\\"Error Trigger\\\"].json[\\\"workflow\\\"][\\\"name\\\"]}}' with the ID {{$node[\\\"Error Trigger\\\"].json[\\\"workflow\\\"][\\\"id\\\"]}} has encountered an error.\". Notice I'm not including the \"last executed node\" here, as the prompt specifically asked for only the name and ID for the Twilio message.\n* Similar to Mattermost, the `credentials` would reference a pre-configured Twilio API credential, let's say named \"Twilio\". This credential would hold the sensitive Twilio Account SID, Auth Token, and the phone number from which messages should be sent.\n\nThis sequence of nodes \u2013 Error Trigger -> Mattermost -> Twilio \u2013 seems to perfectly align with the user's request for sequential error notifications, with each node extracting the necessary dynamic information from the error context provided by the initial trigger." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers manually and sends a simple email using AWS SES with a subject \"Hola\" and body \"Es una prueba\" from \"tu@correo.com\" to \"wocap86140@perceint.com\", using AWS credentials.

It doesn't require any complex setup; it simply provides an entry point. I'll name it something descriptive like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" to clearly indicate its function. No parameters need to be adjusted for this node; its default behavior is exactly what's needed.\n\nNext, the core action of this workflow is to send an email using AWS SES. This means I'll need a node that can interact with the Amazon Simple Email Service.\n\nI'll add an **AWS SES** node.\n* This node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.awsSes` and I'll stick with `typeVersion: 1`.\n* This node is the dedicated integration for sending emails through AWS's SES service, which perfectly matches the requirement. I'll name it simply \"AWS SES\".\n\nNow that I have my trigger and my action node, I need to connect them.\n* The output of the `Manual Trigger` node needs to flow into the `AWS SES` node to signal it to send the email.\n* So, I'll connect the `main` output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node to the `main` input of the \"AWS SES\" node. This creates a simple, linear flow: manual trigger fires, then the AWS SES node executes.\n\nWith the nodes in place and connected, it's time to configure the \"AWS SES\" node according to the email details provided in the prompt.\n* The prompt specifies a subject of \"Hola.\" So, I'll set the `subject` parameter to \"Hola\".\n* For the email body, the prompt asks for \"Es una prueba.\" I'll configure the `body` parameter with \"Es una prueba\".\n* The sender's email address is \"tu@correo.com.\" This goes into the `fromEmail` parameter.\n* The recipient's email address is \"wocap86140@perceint.com.\" For the `toAddresses` parameter, I need to make sure to input it as an array, even if there's only one recipient, so it will be `[\"wocap86140@perceint.com\"]`.\n* The prompt implies a simple email, and the JSON shows no other complex fields. So, I'll leave the `additionalFields` parameter as its default empty object `{}`.\n\nCrucially, the prompt states \"using AWS credentials.\"\n* This means the \"AWS SES\" node needs to be linked to an AWS credential entry that would have been pre-configured in n8n.\n* In the `credentials` section of the AWS SES node, I'd select an existing AWS credential asset. The JSON shows a placeholder `{\"aws\": {\"id\": \"\", \"name\": \"AWS credentials\"}}`, which indicates that a reference to an AWS credential asset will be established here. This credential asset would contain the necessary API key, secret, and potentially region information required to authenticate with AWS SES.\n\nFinally, the prompt mentions the workflow should have a \"Tutoriales\" tag.\n* This is a workflow-level setting, not specific to any node.\n* I would access the workflow settings and add a new tag. I'd set its `name` property to \"Tutoriales\".

The goal is to filter data based on a profile name containing \"an\".\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick off the workflow and get some data into it. The prompt specifies a \"manual trigger,\" which is perfect for testing with sample data. So, I'll start by adding a **Manual Trigger** node, which has the type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node is really useful because it allows me to manually start the workflow and, more importantly for testing, define the exact input data it will provide. Looking at the provided JSON, it already has some fantastic sample data pre-configured in its `pinData`, which includes a `profile` object with a `name` field, exactly what I'll need for filtering. This is great; I won't have to manually create test data every time.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions \"edits fields.\" While the core logic is the filtering, a `Set` node is typically used for manipulating or adding data to the workflow items. It's a versatile node for preparing data. Even if it's not strictly necessary for the filtering itself, including an \"Edit Fields\" step using a **Set** node makes sense if we ever needed to clean up or enhance the data before the main logic. So, I'll add a **Set** node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.2`. I'll connect the output of my \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" (manual trigger) node to the input of this \"Edit Fields\" node. For now, its parameters are empty, meaning it's not actually changing anything. But it's there as a placeholder or potential future step for data transformation, fulfilling the prompt's mention of \"edits fields.\"\n\nNow for the core logic: filtering. The prompt states \"uses an IF node to check for 'an' in the profile name.\" An **IF** node is exactly what I need for conditional branching in a workflow. It allows me to check a condition and then route the workflow items down one path if the condition is true, and another path if it's false. So, I'll add an **IF** node, type `n8n-nodes-base.if` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node will take the output from the \"Edit Fields\" node as its input.\n\nConfiguring this IF node is critical. I need to define the condition. The prompt says to check if the \"profile name contains 'an'\".\n- For the value to check, I need to access the `name` property within the `profile` object of the incoming JSON data. I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.profile.name }}`. This tells n8n to look at the current item's JSON data, find the `profile` key, and then within that, find the `name` key.\n- For the operation, \"contains\" is the perfect choice for checking if a string includes a specific substring.\n- And finally, the value to check against will simply be \"an\".\nSo, the IF node will be configured with a string condition: `value1` as the expression for `profile.name`, `operation` as \"contains\", and `value2` as \"an\".\n\nAfter the IF node, the prompt specifies \"outputs to 'True' and 'False' nodes.\" For these terminal nodes, simple **Set** nodes are a good choice. They don't need to do anything complex, just act as a destination or a way to inspect the data that goes down each path.\n- I'll add a **Set** node named \"True\", type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.2`. This node will receive items where the IF condition was met.\n- And I'll add another **Set** node named \"False\", also type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.2`. This one will receive items where the IF condition was not met.\n\nFinally, I need to connect the IF node to these output nodes. The IF node naturally has two output branches: one for true conditions and one for false. I'll connect the first output of the \"IF\" node (which corresponds to \"True\") to the \"True\" Set node. Then, I'll connect the second output of the \"IF\" node (which corresponds to \"False\") to the \"False\" Set node. This completes the logic, providing a clear separation of data based on the profile name filter." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with two Schedule Trigger nodes (\"Trigger A\" and \"Trigger B\") both connected to a Set node (\"Edit Fields\") that sets a field named \"prevNode\" to the name of the previous node.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6a8c3d85-26f8-4f28-ace9-55a196a23d37\", \"name\": \"prevNode\", \"value\": \"={{ $prevNode.name }}\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [200, -100]}, {\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Trigger A\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [0, -100]}, {\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Trigger B\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [0, 100]}], \"connections\": {\"Trigger A\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Trigger B\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this workflow based on the user's request. The core idea is to have two distinct entry points, both leading to a common processing step where we need to identify which path the data came from.\n\nFirst things first, the user specifically asked for \"two Schedule Trigger nodes.\" So, that's where I'll begin. A schedule trigger is perfect for starting a workflow on a recurring basis or even manually for testing, as it doesn't require an external event.\n\n* I'll add the first trigger node. I see in the JSON it's named \"Trigger A.\" This will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` with `typeVersion 1.2`. For its configuration, the `rule` parameter specifies an `interval`. In the JSON, it's an empty object, which usually means it's configured to run on a default schedule or perhaps to be triggered manually. For this particular workflow, the exact schedule isn't critical, just that it's a schedule trigger.\n\n* Then, following the request, I'll add a second schedule trigger node, \"Trigger B.\" This will also be of type `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` with `typeVersion 1.2`, just like \"Trigger A.\" Its interval configuration will be similar, again, the specifics of the timing aren't the focus here, but rather its role as an entry point.\n\nNow that I have my two starting points, both \"Trigger A\" and \"Trigger B,\" the prompt states that \"both connected to a Set node ('Edit Fields') that sets a field named 'prevNode' to the name of the previous node.\" This implies a common node where data from either trigger will converge. A Set node is an excellent choice for this because its primary purpose is to add, rename, or update fields on the incoming items. It's really good for standardizing data or adding metadata like we need to here.\n\n* So, I'll add a Set node, which the JSON calls \"Edit Fields.\" This node will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion 3.4`.\n\nNext, I need to consider the connections. Both \"Trigger A\" and \"Trigger B\" need to feed into this \"Edit Fields\" node. This means I'll create two separate connections, one from each trigger, to the single input of the Set node. The data will flow from the `main` output of each trigger to the `main` input of the Set node. When multiple nodes connect to a single input, n8n typically processes the items from each incoming branch sequentially or in a consolidated manner, depending on the node's behavior. For a Set node, it will process items as they arrive from whichever upstream node triggered it.\n\nFinally, let's configure the \"Edit Fields\" node. The prompt specifically asks it to \"set a field named 'prevNode' to the name of the previous node.\" The Set node has an `assignments` parameter for this.\n\n* Within the `assignments`, I'll create a new assignment with the `name` set to \"prevNode.\"\n* For the `value`, this is where it gets interesting. I need to dynamically get the name of the node that sent the data to this Set node. n8n provides special expressions for this. The expression `={{ $prevNode.name }}` is perfect for this. `$prevNode` is a global variable that refers to the node directly preceding the current node in the execution path. Accessing `.name` on it will give me the name of that previous node, which is exactly what's required whether it's \"Trigger A\" or \"Trigger B.\"\n* The `type` for this new field will be \"string\" since node names are text.\n\nThis setup ensures that no matter if \"Trigger A\" or \"Trigger B\" initiates the workflow, the \"Edit Fields\" node will correctly identify and record which one was the preceding node, fulfilling all the requirements of the prompt. The `options` parameter within the Set node is empty, meaning no special options like 'only set if exists' or 'ignore empty values' are applied, which is fine for this task as we're always adding a new field." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers manually, creates a new release in Sentry.io, and then retrieves all releases from Sentry.io.

This is of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is 1. Its purpose is simply to kick off the workflow when a user clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n editor or runs it manually in production. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters because its function is so straightforward \u2013 it just signals the start.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next step in the user's request is to \"create a new release in Sentry.io\". This immediately tells me I'll need a node that can interact with the Sentry.io API. n8n typically provides dedicated nodes for popular services, so I'd search for a \"Sentry.io\" node.\n\nI'd then add a `Sentry.io` node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.sentryIo` with `typeVersion` 1. I'd connect its input to the output of the `On clicking 'execute'` node. This ensures that as soon as the workflow is manually triggered, it proceeds to the Sentry.io operation.\n\nFor configuring this Sentry.io node, I'd focus on the parameters required to create a release.\n* The `resource` parameter needs to be set to `release`, as we're dealing with releases.\n* The `operation` parameter must be `create`, as per the requirement.\n* Looking at the JSON, I see parameters like `url`, `version`, `projects`, and `organizationSlug`.\n * The `url` field for a Sentry release typically refers to the release's sourcemap URL, but it can also be a simple description or link. The user would define what makes sense for their specific release.\n * The `version` field is crucial here; this is where the unique identifier for the new release, like a semantic version (e.g., \"1.0.0\") or a Git commit hash, would be specified. This is a mandatory field for creating a Sentry release.\n * The `projects` array indicates which Sentry projects this release applies to. The user would add the slug of their Sentry project(s) here.\n * The `organizationSlug` is also essential, as Sentry resources are scoped by organization. The user would input their Sentry organization's slug.\n* There's also `additionalFields`, which would allow for more advanced release properties, but for a basic creation, the core fields are usually sufficient.\n* Crucially, this node requires credentials. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"sentryIoApi\": \"sentry\"}`. This means a Sentry.io API credential, named \"sentry\" in this case, needs to be pre-configured in the n8n instance, providing the necessary API token or authentication details for Sentry.io. Without this, the node wouldn't be able to authenticate with Sentry.io.\n\nAfter successfully creating the release, the next requirement is to \"retrieve all releases from Sentry.io\". This means I'll need another Sentry.io node, but this time configured for a different operation.\n\nSo, I'd add a second `Sentry.io` node. The JSON labels it `Sentry.io1`. It's also of type `n8n-nodes-base.sentryIo` with `typeVersion` 1. I would connect its input to the output of the *first* Sentry.io node (the one that creates the release). This establishes a sequential flow: trigger -> create release -> get all releases. The output from the \"create\" operation, which would typically contain details about the newly created release, would then pass as input to this \"getAll\" operation, though for a `getAll` operation, the input data often isn't directly used as a parameter for the Sentry API call itself, but rather just serves as a trigger to execute.\n\nFor this second `Sentry.io1` node's configuration:\n* The `resource` parameter again remains `release`.\n* But this time, the `operation` parameter must be `getAll` to fulfill the requirement of retrieving all releases.\n* The `returnAll` parameter is set to `true`. This is very important. Without it, the node might only return a limited number of releases (e.g., the first page of results). Setting `returnAll` to `true` ensures that if there are many releases, the node will paginate through all of them to collect and return everything available.\n* Similar to the first Sentry.io node, the `organizationSlug` is required here as well, as fetching releases is also organization-scoped.\n* Again, it uses the same `credentials: {\"sentryIoApi\": \"sentry\"}` as the first node, meaning it will leverage the same pre-configured Sentry.io API credentials to authenticate.\n* `additionalFields` is present but typically not needed for a simple `getAll` operation unless specific filtering or sorting parameters were required.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it. The workflow starts manually, creates the requested Sentry.io release with the configured details, and then proceeds to fetch all available releases from the specified Sentry organization, using the pre-configured Sentry API credentials for both operations." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON configuration that retrieves customer data, then uses a Set node to add properties \"objectValue.prop1\" (number, 123) and \"objectValue.prop2\" (string, \"someText\") using dot notation.

The most fitting one for a manual start is the **Manual Trigger** node.\n * Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This is a straightforward node; its purpose is simply to initiate the workflow when I click \"Test workflow\" or manually execute it. There are no complex parameters to set here for its basic operation, so an empty `parameters: {}` object is exactly what I'd expect. The name \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" is very clear and descriptive for this node.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"retrieves customer data\" and specifies \"a maximum of 10 people.\" This means I need a node that can connect to some sort of customer data source and pull records. Looking at the provided JSON, I see a node called \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\". This seems to be a specific node for demonstration or training purposes within n8n, which is perfect for fulfilling the \"retrieve customer data\" part of the prompt without needing to guess an external system.\n\n* So, after the manual trigger, I'll add the **Customer Datastore (n8n training)** node.\n * Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is designed to simulate fetching customer data, which fits the bill.\n * I need to connect it directly to the manual trigger. So, the main output of \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" will feed into the main input of \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\". This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the very next action is to retrieve the customer data.\n * Now, for the configuration of this node. The prompt specifies \"retrieves a maximum of 10 people.\" I'll need to set the operation to retrieve people, and then apply a limit.\n * The `operation` parameter is set to `\"getAllPeople\"`. This makes sense, as I want to retrieve multiple customer records.\n * The `limit` parameter is set to `10`. This directly addresses the requirement for a \"maximum of 10 people.\" This is important because it controls the volume of data processed, which can impact performance and resource usage in a real-world scenario.\n\nFinally, the prompt instructs me to \"then uses a Set node to add properties 'objectValue.prop1' (number, 123) and 'objectValue.prop2' (string, \"someText\") using dot notation.\" This is a clear indication for the last step in this particular workflow.\n\n* I'll add a **Set** node.\n * Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. The Set node is extremely useful for manipulating data items by adding, modifying, or removing fields. It's exactly what's needed here to enrich the customer data.\n * This node needs to process the customer data that comes out of the \"Customer Datastore\". So, I'll connect the main output of \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" to the main input of the \"Set\" node. This ensures that for each customer record retrieved, the specified properties are added.\n * Now, for the Set node's configuration, which is crucial for meeting the prompt's requirements:\n * I need to add `objectValue.prop1` as a number with value `123`. I'll go to the \"Values\" section, specifically under the \"Number\" type, and add a new entry. The `name` will be `objectValue.prop1` and the `value` will be `123`.\n * Similarly, I need to add `objectValue.prop2` as a string with value `\"someText\"`. I'll add another entry, this time under the \"String\" type, with `name: \"objectValue.prop2\"` and `value: \"someText\"`.\n * Crucially, the prompt specifies \"using dot notation\". This means I need to enable the `dotNotation` option in the Set node's parameters. By setting `options.dotNotation` to `true`, n8n will interpret `objectValue.prop1` not as a single flat key, but as a nested structure where an object `objectValue` is created, containing `prop1`. If this option wasn't enabled, the property would simply be named \"objectValue.prop1\" at the top level, which isn't what's desired for creating a nested object.\n\nThe `pinData` section in the JSON appears to be internal UI state related to how connections are visualized in the editor, particularly for the Set node, showing item counts. It doesn't impact the functional design or configuration I've just described. The core logic is defined by the nodes and their connections." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers manually and sends a test message with a subject to an AWS SNS topic named \"n8n-rocks\", using the \"aws\" credentials.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"topic\": \"n8n-rocks\", \"message\": \"This is a test message\", \"subject\": \"This is a test subject\"}, \"name\": \"AWS SNS\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.awsSns\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AWS SNS\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. My goal is to create a workflow that kicks off manually and then pushes a specific test message to an AWS SNS topic.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to *start* the workflow. The prompt specifically says \"triggers manually.\" This immediately tells me I need a trigger node that can be initiated by a user click. Looking at the available nodes, the `Manual Trigger` node is absolutely perfect for this. It's designed for exactly this kind of use case \u2013 when you want to run a workflow on demand.\n\nSo, I'll start by placing a `Manual Trigger` node.\n* Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`.\n* And its `typeVersion` is 1, which is the standard for this node. I don't anticipate any complex configurations here, as its job is simply to provide an execution kick-off point. It doesn't need any special `parameters` for its basic function. I'll give it a clear name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" to reflect its purpose.\n\nNow that I have the trigger, what's the next step? The prompt states \"sends a test message with a subject to an AWS SNS topic named \"n8n-rocks\"\". This clearly points to an integration with AWS SNS.\n\nSo, the next node I need to add must be an AWS SNS node. I'll search for one that can publish messages.\n* The `AWS SNS` node, with `type` `n8n-nodes-base.awsSns`, is the exact match for this requirement.\n* Its `typeVersion` is also 1.\n\nOnce I have the `AWS SNS` node, I need to connect it to my `Manual Trigger`. This is straightforward: the trigger will initiate the workflow, and then the SNS message should be sent. So, I'll draw a `main` connection from the output of the `Manual Trigger` node to the input of the `AWS SNS` node. This means when the trigger fires, the execution flow will pass directly to the SNS node.\n\nNow, let's configure the `AWS SNS` node. This is where I'll specify *what* message to send and *where* to send it.\n\n* **Credentials**: The prompt specifies \"using the 'aws' credentials\". This means I need to link this node to a pre-existing AWS credential setup within n8n. In the `credentials` property, I'll ensure it's set to reference the credential entry named \"aws\". This handles the authentication part.\n* **Topic**: The prompt says \"to an AWS SNS topic named \"n8n-rocks\"\". So, within the node's `parameters`, I'll set the `topic` field to `n8n-rocks`. This tells the node which specific SNS topic to publish the message to.\n* **Message**: It needs to \"send a test message\". The JSON provides \"This is a test message\" for the `message` parameter. I'll use that as the content of the message. This is a static string, perfectly suitable for a simple test.\n* **Subject**: And finally, it needs to be \"with a subject\". The JSON specifies \"This is a test subject\" for the `subject` parameter. I'll include this as the subject line for the SNS publication. Again, a static string works fine here.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow now has a manual starting point, correctly connects to the AWS SNS node, and is configured to send the specified test message and subject to the correct topic using the designated credentials. The flow is complete." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON for a simple workflow named \"Sales\" that starts with a \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\" manual trigger node. The workflow should be owned by team \"DEMO\" with ID \"7KQPZmuLDnKgOrJQ\".\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Sales\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 320]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's design this n8n workflow from the ground up, thinking through each part as we go.\n\nFirst, I need to establish the basic metadata for the workflow itself. The user prompt specifies a workflow named \"Sales,\" so that's the `name` I'll assign. The `id` \"FV6wN9IVvv2o8Yx7\" will be its unique identifier within n8n, which is crucial for distinguishing it from other workflows.\n\nA key piece of information is the ownership. This workflow isn't personal; it's owned by a `team`. The JSON clearly states `owner: {\"type\": \"team\", \"teamId\": \"7KQPZmuLDnKgOrJQ\", \"teamName\": \"DEMO\"}`. This is good; it means the workflow will be accessible and manageable by anyone in the \"DEMO\" team, which is important for collaboration and organizational structure.\n\nNow, let's think about the actual nodes that will make up this workflow. The prompt specifically asks for a workflow that \"starts with a 'When clicking 'Test workflow'' manual trigger node.\" This immediately tells me what my first, and likely only, node will be for such a simple workflow.\n\nI'll add a node of `type` `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. This is the perfect choice for a workflow that needs to be initiated on demand, directly from the n8n editor, by a user clicking a button. It's ideal for testing, demonstrations, or simple utility workflows that don't need to respond to external events or run on a schedule. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the current standard for this node, ensuring expected behavior. I'll give it the `name` \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" as requested, making it clear what its function is within the workflow canvas.\n\nFor configuration, the `parameters` object for this node is empty `{}`. This makes sense for a basic manual trigger; it doesn't require any specific setup like credentials, specific inputs, or polling intervals. It simply acts as a start button. Its `id`, \"baad2195-c1fa-46e9-ac91-c115223a8aac\", will uniquely identify this specific node within the workflow. The `position` `[720, 320]` just tells n8n where to place it visually on the canvas, which helps keep the workflow organized, especially as it grows.\n\nSince this is a very simple workflow that just *starts* with a manual trigger and doesn't specify any subsequent actions, there won't be any connections between nodes. The `connections` object will therefore be empty `{}`. If this workflow were to, say, then fetch sales data from a database or an API, I would connect this `manualTrigger` node to an `HTTP Request` node or a `Postgres` node, for example. But for this definition, it's just the trigger.\n\nFinally, I'll set up some general `settings` for the workflow. The `executionOrder` is set to \"v1\", which is the default and typically fine for most workflows, ensuring nodes execute in a logical sequence. The `triggerCount` is `0`, indicating that this workflow hasn't been run yet, which is expected for a newly created definition. The `versionId` \"d2ec9014-8664-4910-9168-468f2402c035\" is just internal metadata for tracking workflow versions.\n\nAnd that's it. This workflow is now defined as a simple \"Sales\" workflow, manually triggered, and ready to go." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object representing a deactivated workflow named \"My workflow\" with an empty node list and no connections, created and updated on \"2025-03-24T09:59:55.402Z\" with a specific version ID of \"fa081bb2-8c7b-4eea-a9d2-72ecfd333b46\".\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow\", \"nodes\": [], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get into the mind of building this workflow from the ground up, based on the provided JSON.\n\nSo, the very first thing I notice when looking at this specification is that we're dealing with an extremely minimal workflow. It's almost like creating a blank canvas, but with some essential metadata already defined.\n\nMy initial thought is always about the workflow's identity. Every workflow needs a name, right? Looking at the JSON, I see ` \"name\": \"My workflow\"`. This is the human-readable identifier. As a designer, I'd ensure this name is clear and descriptive, even if the workflow currently does nothing. \"My workflow\" is a generic placeholder, but it's a starting point.\n\nNext, I immediately check its state. Is it supposed to be running or not? The JSON clearly states ` \"active\": false`. This is a critical design decision. It tells me that this workflow, even if fully built out with nodes and logic, is intended to be deactivated. Perhaps it's under development, paused, or simply a template. As a designer, I wouldn't expect this workflow to execute any operations or respond to any triggers in its current state. I'd leave it deactivated until all the pieces are in place and thoroughly tested.\n\nNow, let's talk about the actual logic of the workflow \u2013 the nodes and connections. This is where it gets interesting, or rather, *uninteresting* in this specific case. The JSON has `\"nodes\": []` and `\"connections\": {}`. This tells me there are absolutely no nodes defined within this workflow. Consequently, with no nodes, there can be no connections between them, which is why the `connections` object is empty.\n\nFrom a design perspective, this signifies one of a few things:\n* It's a brand new workflow that has just been initialized, a bare shell waiting for its first trigger or action node.\n* All existing nodes might have been intentionally removed, perhaps as part of a major overhaul, or because the workflow's previous function is no longer needed, but the workflow's identity and metadata are being preserved.\n* It could serve as a basic template for creating new workflows, where the name, initial active state, and versioning information are pre-set.\n\nSince there are no nodes, I wouldn't be adding any specific node types like a Trigger, HTTP Request, or Function node. The core design here is explicitly an *empty* operational flow. There's no data to process, no external services to interact with, and no internal logic to execute.\n\nThen, there's the essential metadata that tracks the workflow's lifecycle. I see ` \"createdAt\": \"2025-03-24T09:59:55.402Z\"` and ` \"updatedAt\": \"2025-03-24T09:59:55.402Z\"`. These timestamps are vital. They tell me exactly when this workflow was initially brought into existence and when it was last modified. In this case, the creation and update times are identical, which further reinforces the idea that it's a freshly created, minimal workflow that hasn't undergone any subsequent changes yet. As a designer, I rely on these timestamps for auditing, debugging, and understanding the workflow's history.\n\nAnd critically, there's ` \"versionId\": \"fa081bb2-8c7b-4eea-a9d2-72ecfd333b46\"`. This unique identifier is fundamental for version control. Even an empty workflow has a specific version associated with it. If I were to make any changes to this workflow in the future \u2013 say, add a node \u2013 a new `versionId` would likely be generated by the system, allowing me to track specific iterations and potentially roll back if needed. It establishes a unique snapshot of this workflow's configuration at a given point in time.\n\nFinally, other properties like `\"id\": \"Btrf8IHoLliVBKof\"`, `\"meta\": null`, `\"pinData\": null`, `\"settings\": {}`, `\"staticData\": null`, `\"tags\": []`, and `\"triggerCount\": 0` indicate that no further custom metadata, display preferences, specific workflow settings, static data, organizational tags, or execution counts have been applied. They are all in their default, unconfigured state, which is expected for such a barebones workflow. The `triggerCount` being `0` naturally aligns with `active: false`; it hasn't run, so it hasn't been triggered.\n\nSo, in summary, as a workflow system designer, I'm looking at the blueprint for a dormant, empty workflow, meticulously tracked with creation and versioning details, ready to be fleshed out with actual functional nodes and connections when its purpose becomes clearer." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object representing an n8n workflow that retrieves customer data, includes a manual trigger and a \"Set\" node to edit fields.

The prompt explicitly states it needs a \"manual trigger.\" So, that's my very first node. I'll add a `Manual Trigger` node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **TypeVersion:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This is the standard way to start a workflow when you want to execute it on demand, directly from the n8n interface. It doesn't require any incoming data or external events; you just click \"Execute Workflow.\" Its parameters are quite simple, as it mostly serves as a start signal, so the empty `parameters: {}` makes perfect sense here. It sets the stage for the rest of the workflow to run. I'll call it \"When clicking \u2018Execute workflow\u2019\" as per the JSON.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow \"retrieves customer data\" and specifically mentions using a \"custom node named 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)'\" to \"get all people.\" This is the core data retrieval step. So, I'll connect this node directly after the manual trigger.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`\n* **TypeVersion:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node is clearly designed for interacting with a specific customer data source, as indicated by its name. It's the right choice for fetching the customer records. The `manualTrigger` node doesn't produce any output data that needs to be processed by the `Customer Datastore` node; it just signals that the workflow should start and the `Customer Datastore` should begin its operation.\n* **Configuration:** Looking at the JSON, it has `{\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}`. This is crucial. It tells the `Customer Datastore` node precisely what action to perform: retrieve all available customer records. This aligns perfectly with the user's requirement to \"get all people.\" If I needed a subset or a specific customer, I would configure a different operation here, but \"getAllPeople\" is what's required. I'll name it \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\".\n\nNow that I have the customer data, the prompt specifies that the workflow \"modifies the data\" and includes a \"`Set` node to edit fields.\" This is where the transformation happens. I'll connect the `Customer Datastore` node's output to a `Set` node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **TypeVersion:** `3.4`\n* **Reasoning:** The `Set` node is the go-to node in n8n for modifying, adding, or removing fields on items. Since the goal is to \"edit fields,\" this is the ideal choice. It will take the customer data items produced by the `Customer Datastore` node and allow me to define how each field should be transformed.\n* **Configuration:**\n * `\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": []}`: This part tells me that no specific field assignments are currently configured. The array is empty. This means that, right now, the `Set` node isn't actually *changing* any values or adding new fields. It's set up to *allow* for future modifications, but it's not performing any active transformations yet. It's ready to be configured with rules, like changing a country code or adding a 'last_updated' timestamp.\n * `\"includeOtherFields\": true`: This is an important setting. It means that any fields that are *not* explicitly mentioned in the `assignments` array (even if it were populated) will still be passed through to the next node. If this were set to `false`, only the fields defined in `assignments` would appear in the output, which could lead to data loss if not intended. Keeping it `true` is generally safer when you're just looking to modify specific fields without discarding the rest of the item's data.\n * `\"options\": {}`: No special options are enabled here.\n* I'll call this node \"Edit Fields.\"\n\nFinally, for the connections:\n* The `Manual Trigger` node (`When clicking \u2018Execute workflow\u2019`) will connect its `main` output to the `main` input of the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node. This ensures that the data retrieval process starts immediately after the manual trigger is activated.\n* The `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node will then connect its `main` output to the `main` input of the `Set` node (`Edit Fields`). This connection will pass all the retrieved customer data items to the `Set` node, allowing them to be processed and potentially modified as per its configuration.\n\nThat covers all the requirements and nodes in the JSON provided.

Looking at the provided JSON, this node is named \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\". Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` with `typeVersion` 1. This specific node type sounds like it's designed exactly for fetching sample customer data, probably for training purposes within n8n. Now, how do I configure it to get \"10 people\"? I'd open its parameters. The JSON shows `{\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\", \"limit\": 10}`. This is spot on! I'd set the `operation` to `getAllPeople` and then specify a `limit` of `10`. This ensures that the node fetches exactly the number of records requested, making sure the subsequent steps only process a defined batch.\n\nFinally, the prompt asks to add two new properties: `objectValue.prop1` (number: 123) and `objectValue.prop2` (string: \"someText\") using dot notation. The perfect node for adding or modifying data items as they flow through the workflow is the **Set** node. So, I'll draw a connection from the \"Customer Datastore\" node to this new **Set** node. This means the 10 customer records retrieved will become the input for the Set node. The Set node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is 1.\n\nNow for the crucial configuration of the Set node. I need to add properties.\n- For `objectValue.prop1` which is a number: I'd go into the 'Set' parameters, choose to add a 'Number' field. For its name, I'd type `objectValue.prop1`, and for its value, I'd enter `123`.\n- For `objectValue.prop2` which is a string: Similarly, I'd add a 'String' field. Its name would be `objectValue.prop2`, and its value would be `\"someText\"`.\n\nThe prompt specifically mentions \"using dot notation\". This is a key detail for the Set node. I need to make sure the Set node understands that `objectValue.prop1` means a property `prop1` *inside* an object named `objectValue`, not just a flat property with a dot in its name. So, within the Set node's options, there's usually a toggle for \"Dot Notation\" or \"Treat dot as path\". I'd enable that. The JSON confirms this by having `\"options\": {\"dotNotation\": true}`. This setting ensures that the output data structure will correctly represent nested objects, which is exactly what's required for `objectValue.prop1` and `objectValue.prop2`.\n\nThe `pinData` for the Set node is also provided. This is usually internal data or test data that n8n captures during execution, showing what input the node received and what output it produced. While it doesn't directly influence the *configuration* of the node, its presence in the JSON suggests it's part of the overall workflow definition for completeness, perhaps for a specific test run. It indicates that the Set node was prepared to process multiple items and store their state, even though the `Customer Datastore` would only provide 10 items; the pin data seems to show 20 items (key0 to key19), which might be from a different example or a generic set of dummy items used for testing the Set node's logic itself. But my focus remains on configuring the node as per the prompt's requirements.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It's a straightforward sequence: trigger, fetch data, then augment that data." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object representing an n8n workflow that retrieves content from a Google Doc (specified by URL) via a webhook and returns it as text.

The core requirement here is to fetch content from a Google Doc and return it as text when triggered by a webhook.\n\nFirst things first, since the workflow needs to be triggered by a webhook, my initial thought goes straight to the **Webhook node**. This is the standard entry point for any n8n workflow that needs to react to an external HTTP request. So, I'd add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion 2`. I like version 2 because it often comes with improvements in handling headers and response modes. For this particular webhook, I'd need to configure a specific path where it will listen for incoming requests. The JSON shows `path: \"onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/VPNUsage\"`, which makes sense; it creates a unique endpoint for this specific file retrieval. Also, it's set to `responseMode: \"responseNode\"`, which is important because it means the webhook won't send an immediate response. Instead, it expects another node down the line to handle the response, which is exactly what we'll need to do after retrieving the document content.\n\nNow that we have the trigger, the next step in our workflow is to actually get the content from the Google Doc. Given that, I immediately think of the **Google Docs node**. This node is specifically designed for interacting with Google's document service. So, I'll connect this to the `Webhook` node, as it needs to run *after* the webhook has been triggered. I'd use the `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` type with `typeVersion 2`, as specified. This version is generally robust for common operations. Inside this node, the critical configuration would be the `operation`. Since we need to retrieve content, the \"get\" operation is the clear choice. We'd also need to specify *which* document to get content from, so a `documentURL` would be configured here. While I don't know the exact URL, it would point to the specific Google Doc that we want to fetch content from. Of course, to access a Google Doc, credentials are required. So, a Google Docs OAuth2 API credential would be set up and linked here, allowing n8n to authenticate with Google.\n\nFinally, after we've successfully retrieved the content from the Google Doc, we need to return it as text via the original webhook. For this, the **Respond to Webhook node** is perfect. It's purpose-built for sending a customized response back to the originating webhook caller. I would connect this node from the `Google Docs` node. The data from the Google Docs node, which includes the retrieved content, will flow into this `Respond to Webhook` node. I'd use `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion 1.1`. In its parameters, the prompt specifically asked to return the content \"as text,\" so I'd set `respondWith: \"text\"`. Then, to actually send the content, I'd use an expression in the `responseBody`. The Google Docs node typically outputs the document content in a field like `content` (or similar, depending on the exact output structure). So, an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` would be used here. This tells the node to take the `content` property from the JSON data it receives from the previous node and send it directly as the body of the text response. This completes the loop, responding to the initial webhook request with the retrieved document content.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the whole flow. We've got the trigger, the action to get the data, and the final response. The whole thing is linear: Webhook -> Google Docs -> Respond to Webhook. It's a clean, direct solution to the problem statement." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers manually and sends an email with a predefined subject, body, sender, and recipient.

This immediately tells me where I need to start. I'll look for a trigger node that allows for a manual execution.\n\n* I think I'll add a **Trigger node** of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is absolutely perfect for the \"triggers manually\" requirement. It doesn't need any complex configuration, its sole purpose is to start the workflow when someone clicks the 'execute workflow' button in the n8n interface. It's the simplest way to get things going without a schedule or an external event. I don't see any parameters needed for this node, which makes it straightforward.\n\nNow that we have our starting point, what's the next step? The core task is to \"send an email\". For that, n8n provides a dedicated node.\n\n* So, after the manual trigger, I'll connect it directly to an **Email node**. Looking at the available nodes, the `n8n-nodes-base.emailSend` node with `typeVersion 1` is precisely what we need. Its function is literally to send emails, which matches the prompt's main goal.\n\nNow, how do we configure this `emailSend` node? The prompt gives us very specific details:\n* \"n8n rocks!\" as the subject\n* \"This is a message to demonstrate the n8n Send Email workflow!\" as the body\n* Sent from \"user@from.email\"\n* Sent to \"user@example.com\"\n\nLet's populate the parameters of our `emailSend` node based on this.\n* For the email body, which maps to the `text` parameter, I'll set it to \"This is a message to demonstrate the n8n Send Email workflow!\".\n* The `subject` parameter will be \"n8n rocks!\".\n* The `toEmail` parameter will be set to the recipient's address, \"user@example.com\".\n* And the `fromEmail` parameter will be the sender's address, \"user@from.email\".\n* There's also an `options` object with `allowUnauthorizedCerts: false`. This is a standard option related to SSL\/TLS certificates for the SMTP server. It's usually good practice to keep this false unless there's a specific reason for self-signed certificates in a test environment.\n\nOne crucial part of sending emails is, of course, the credentials for an SMTP server. This `emailSend` node will require a set of SMTP credentials. These credentials would typically be configured within n8n's credential management system, and then this node would simply reference them. So, in the workflow, it would point to a named credential entry, something like \"your@smtp_creds.here\". This abstract reference means that the actual server address, port, username, and password are handled securely outside the workflow definition itself, which is excellent for security.\n\nFinally, we need to ensure the workflow flows correctly. The connection is pretty simple here. The \"On clicking 'execute'\" manual trigger will output data (though in this case it's just an empty item to start the flow), and that output will connect directly to the \"Send Email\" node's input. This means that as soon as the manual trigger fires, the email sending process will commence immediately. It's a direct, sequential execution.\n\nThat pretty much covers it. The workflow starts with a manual trigger, and that trigger's signal directly activates the email sending node, which then dispatches the email with all the specified details. Simple and effective for the given requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON for fetching emails from Gmail twice, triggered manually.

The user wants to fetch emails from Gmail twice, and critically, it needs to be triggered manually. This means I'll need a specific type of trigger to kick things off.\n\nSo, for the very first step, I'm going to start with the trigger. Since the requirement is for a *manual* trigger, the most straightforward node for this is the `Manual Trigger` node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node is perfect because it allows the user to explicitly start the workflow by clicking a button in the n8n UI (often labeled \"Test workflow\" or \"Execute workflow manually\"). It doesn't rely on schedules or external events, which directly aligns with the \"triggered manually\" requirement. Its parameters are typically empty because it simply serves as a starting point. It's positioned at `[460, 460]` in the workflow, which is a good starting point on the canvas.\n\nNow that we have the trigger, the next step is to actually fetch the emails. The prompt specifies fetching emails from Gmail, and doing it *twice*. This implies I'll need at least two Gmail nodes. Let's add the first one.\n\nI'll connect this first Gmail node directly to the `Manual Trigger` node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.gmail`\n* **Type Version:** `2.1`\n* **Reasoning:** The user specifically asked for fetching emails from Gmail, so the `Gmail` node is the obvious choice. The `operation` parameter is set to `get`, which means it's configured to retrieve emails, not send them or perform other actions. This is exactly what we need. This node will require credentials to be set up, allowing it to authenticate with a Gmail account. The exact credentials, of course, would be provided by the user and would involve things like an OAuth 2.0 application ID and secret, or potentially service account keys, depending on how they prefer to authenticate. It's named \"Gmail\" and positioned at `[680, 460]`, which looks like a logical flow from the manual trigger. This will be the first instance where we fetch emails.\n\nNext, the prompt states that we need to fetch emails from Gmail *twice*. So, after the first Gmail node successfully retrieves its set of emails, I want another Gmail node to run. I'll connect the output of the first Gmail node to this new, second Gmail node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.gmail`\n* **Type Version:** `2.1`\n* **Reasoning:** Just like the first one, this node is necessary to fulfill the requirement of fetching emails a second time. It also uses the `get` operation, identical to its predecessor, indicating it's also set up to retrieve emails. It would also need to use the same, or a different, Gmail credential setup. In the provided JSON, this node doesn't have a custom `name` property set; it's an empty string. This is common in n8n where if you add a second node of the same type, it might default to no custom name, and the UI might internally name it something like \"Gmail1\" to differentiate it from \"Gmail\". It's positioned at `[900, 460]`, keeping it in a clear linear flow from the previous Gmail node.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the requirements. We have the `Manual Trigger` to start, followed by two `Gmail` nodes, both configured to `get` emails. The connections ensure that once the manual trigger fires, the first Gmail node executes, and upon its completion, the second Gmail node executes." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object representing an n8n workflow that triggers on errors and sends a Discord notification with the workflow name and ID.

Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.errorTrigger` and it's currently at `typeVersion 1`. This node is absolutely perfect for the job because its sole purpose is to listen for errors that occur in *other* workflows. When another workflow encounters an unhandled error, n8n can be configured to send that error event to this specific workflow, initiating it. There aren't really any parameters to configure for this node; it just sits there, ready to catch error events.\n\nOnce an error event is caught by the \"Error Trigger\" node, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"send a Discord notification.\" This is quite straightforward. I'll need a node that can interact with Discord. The \"Discord\" node is the obvious choice for this. I'd add it right after the \"Error Trigger.\" Its type would be `n8n-nodes-base.discord` and `typeVersion 1`.\n\nNow, how do I connect these two? The \"Error Trigger\" will output the details of the error it caught. This data needs to flow directly into the \"Discord\" node so it can use that information to construct the message. So, I'd draw a 'main' connection from the output of the \"Error Trigger\" node to the input of the \"Discord\" node. This ensures the data captured by the error trigger, which includes details about the workflow that erred, its name, and its ID, is passed along.\n\nWith the \"Discord\" node in place, I need to configure it to actually send the message.\nFirst, it requires a `webhookUri`. This is critical for Discord. Here, I'd configure the Discord webhook URL, which is a specific URL that allows applications to send messages to a designated channel in Discord. I wouldn't use any specific value from the JSON, but I'd explain that this is where the Discord webhook URL is placed.\n\nNext, and very important for the message content, is the `text` parameter. The prompt specifies including the \"workflow name and ID.\" Looking at the JSON, it's clear how this is achieved: using expressions. The Discord node's text field would be set up to pull information from the data received from the \"Error Trigger\" node. Specifically, it would access `{{ $json[\"workflow\"][\"name\"] }}` to get the name of the workflow that failed, and `{{ $json[\"workflow\"][\"id\"] }}` to get its ID. This is really powerful because it means the notification is dynamic and provides context about *which* workflow had the problem. The rest of the message would just be static text to provide context around these dynamic values, like indicating that a workflow in N8N had an error and asking for a check. There are also `options` for the Discord node, but in this case, the `options` object is empty, meaning no special formatting or advanced settings (like username, avatar, or embeds) are being used for the Discord message.\n\nFinally, looking at the overall workflow settings, there are a few important things to note. The `active` status is `false` initially, which means the workflow is not running; it would need to be manually activated to start listening for errors. Then there are the `saveExecutionProgress`, `saveManualExecutions`, `saveDataErrorExecution`, and `saveDataSuccessExecution` settings, which control how n8n logs and retains data from workflow executions. For an error workflow, it's often good practice to retain error data, which seems to be the case here with `saveDataErrorExecution` set to \"all.\"\n\nMost crucially, for an error handling workflow, the `settings.errorWorkflow` property is specified. This is *how* n8n knows that this particular workflow (`B5ErT6ObkzMJxzKU` in the provided JSON, though I wouldn't use the specific ID) is designated to handle errors from other workflows. Without this setting, even if the \"Error Trigger\" node is present, other workflows wouldn't automatically send their errors here. So, this setting essentially registers this workflow as the global or specific error handler. The `name` of the workflow, \"\\u2699\\ufe0f Aviso de Erro no Discord\" (which translates to \"\u2699\ufe0f Discord Error Warning\"), also clearly indicates its purpose." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON configuration that retrieves a limited number of customers from a datastore and sets a specific number and string property using the Set node.

Every workflow needs a trigger. The prompt explicitly asks for a manual trigger. So, my first step will be to add a `Manual Trigger` node. I'll choose `type: 'n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger'` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is straightforward; it doesn't require any specific parameters beyond its default settings, which is ideal for a simple manual start. I'll name it \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" to clearly indicate its purpose, aligning with the provided JSON. Its position on the canvas will be at `[500, 440]`.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step is to retrieve customer data from a datastore. The prompt mentions \"retrieve a limited number of customers from a datastore.\" Looking at the provided JSON, there's a node type `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` with `typeVersion: 1`, named \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\". This node appears to be specifically designed for interacting with a customer datastore within an n8n training context, which is a perfect fit for the \"datastore\" requirement.\n\nI'll connect the main output of my `Manual Trigger` node to the main input of this `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node. This establishes the flow: once manually triggered, the workflow will proceed to fetch customer data. For its configuration, the prompt specifies \"a limited number\". The JSON shows `parameters: {\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\", \"limit\": 10}`. Setting the `operation` to `\"getAllPeople\"` makes sense for retrieving customer records, and the `limit: 10` directly addresses the requirement to retrieve only a limited number of customers, specifically ten. This configuration ensures that only a manageable set of data is pulled into the workflow. The node's position will be `[720, 440]`, placed to the right of the trigger.\n\nFinally, the prompt requires setting \"a specific number and string property using the Set node.\" This clearly indicates the next node in the sequence should be a `Set` node. I'll add a node of `type: 'n8n-nodes-base.set'` with `typeVersion: 1`. The Set node is excellent for adding new fields or modifying existing ones on incoming items, which is exactly what's needed here.\n\nI'll connect the main output of the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node to the main input of the `Set` node. This ensures that all the customer records fetched by the previous node are passed to the Set node for property modification. When configuring the `Set` node, I need to add both a number and a string property. The JSON provides the exact setup: `parameters: {\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop1\", \"value\": 123}], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop2\", \"value\": \"someText\"}]}, \"options\": {\"dotNotation\": true}}}`.\nThis configuration is quite specific.\n* Under the `number` array, it defines a new property with `name: \"objectValue.prop1\"` and assigns it a `value: 123`. This means a numeric property named `prop1` will be created within an object called `objectValue` for each incoming item.\n* Similarly, under the `string` array, it defines another property with `name: \"objectValue.prop2\"` and assigns it a `value: \"someText\"`. This will create a string property named `prop2`, also nested within `objectValue`.\n* The `options: {\"dotNotation\": true}` is crucial here. It tells the Set node to interpret the dot-separated names (like `objectValue.prop1`) as paths, allowing it to create nested objects automatically if `objectValue` doesn't already exist, or to simply add the properties to an existing `objectValue` on each item. This setup perfectly fulfills the requirement to set specific number and string properties.

There aren't any special `options` needed for this basic setup, so I'd leave that empty for now.\n\nThe prompt also mentions that the \"pin data should include a JSON body with 'here': 'be' and 'dragons': true.\" This isn't something I configure *on* the Webhook node itself, but rather it's the *example input* or the *test data* that the Webhook node is expected to receive. When I test this workflow, I would send a POST request to its generated URL with exactly that JSON body. The `pinData` section in the provided JSON shows this expected incoming data, including the `body` content, along with standard headers, query parameters, and other context a webhook typically receives. This confirms the Webhook is indeed set up to capture that specific JSON structure.\n\nOnce the Webhook receives data, what's next? The prompt says it should be \"passing it to a Set node.\" This tells me the immediate next step in the workflow. A **Set** node is a very versatile node in n8n. It's often used to create, modify, or remove data, or simply to take the data from a previous node and make it available for further processing, sometimes just for inspection.\n\nSo, I'd add a **Set** node. Its type would be `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` would be 1. In this specific case, looking at its parameters, there are no specific `options` configured. This means the Set node isn't adding any new data, removing anything, or applying any transformations itself based on its internal configuration. It's essentially receiving whatever data the Webhook outputs and making it its own output, which is perfectly fine for simply passing data along or making it visible for debugging.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The Webhook is the trigger, and the Set node is where the data goes next. So, I would draw a connection from the \"main\" output of the **Webhook** node to the \"main\" input of the **Set** node. This connection ensures that whatever data the Webhook receives and processes, it directly flows into the Set node for the next step in the workflow." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a Manual Trigger node connected to a Wait node (2 seconds), which in turn is connected to a Set node. The workflow should be named \"Manual wait set\".\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Manual wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [900, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Manual\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1120, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Manual\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning out this workflow, \"Manual wait set,\" based on the requirements.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a way to kick off. The prompt specifically asks for a \"Manual Trigger node.\" So, that's where I'll begin. I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This is perfect for when I want to initiate the workflow myself, directly from the n8n interface, rather than having it run on a schedule or in response to an external event like a webhook. It's a simple, straightforward trigger that just sends an empty item to start the flow. No special parameters are needed for this node, as its purpose is just to provide that manual start button.\n\nNext, the prompt says this Manual Trigger node should be connected to a \"Wait node (2 seconds).\" This tells me exactly what to add. I'll need a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.wait` with `typeVersion 1`. The `Wait` node is crucial here because it allows me to pause the workflow's execution for a specified duration. This is incredibly useful in many real-world scenarios, like waiting for an external system to process something, implementing rate limiting, or simply adding a delay before the next action.\n\nFor the `Wait` node's configuration, the prompt is very clear: \"2 seconds.\" So, I'll set its `parameters` to include `amount: 2` and `unit: \"seconds\"`. This ensures the workflow will literally just sit there for two seconds before passing the execution to the next node. It's a very simple and effective way to introduce a controlled delay.\n\nNow for the connections. The prompt states the `Manual Trigger` is connected \"to a Wait node.\" So, the main output of my `Manual` node will connect to the main input of the `Wait` node. This means that as soon as I manually trigger the workflow, the execution will immediately move to the Wait node, which will then pause for two seconds.\n\nFinally, the prompt says the `Wait` node \"is connected to a Set node.\" This is the last step in this particular workflow. I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion 1`. The `Set` node is a versatile utility node in n8n. Its primary purpose is to add, modify, or remove data fields on items as they pass through. In this specific case, the prompt doesn't specify any fields to set, so it will likely be configured with empty `parameters.options`, meaning it will just pass the incoming data through without modification. It acts as a kind of final step or a placeholder where further data manipulation could be added later if the workflow's requirements expand. For now, it's just a simple terminal point.\n\nTo complete the flow, the main output of the `Wait` node will connect to the main input of the `Set` node. This way, after the two-second wait, the original item (which initially came from the Manual Trigger) will proceed to the Set node, and then the workflow will conclude. This seems to fulfill all the requirements of the prompt perfectly.Okay, let's get this workflow designed from the ground up.\n\nFirst, I need to think about how this workflow is going to be started. The prompt explicitly states \"a Manual Trigger node.\" So, that's the natural starting point. I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is ideal because it allows for a user to initiate the workflow on demand, directly from the n8n UI, which aligns perfectly with the requirement. It doesn't need any special configuration parameters; its sole job is to provide that \"start\" button and push an initial empty item into the workflow. I'll name it \"Manual\" as per the provided JSON.\n\nNext, the prompt says the Manual Trigger is \"connected to a Wait node (2 seconds).\" This is a clear instruction. The immediate next step after the workflow is manually triggered should be a delay. For this, I'll choose a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.wait` with `typeVersion 1`. The `Wait` node is precisely designed for pausing workflow execution for a set period, which is exactly what's needed here. It's incredibly useful for scenarios where you might need to space out operations or wait for an external process to complete.\n\nNow, for the configuration of this `Wait` node: the prompt specifies \"2 seconds.\" So, within its parameters, I'll set `amount` to `2` and `unit` to `\"seconds\"`. This ensures the workflow will pause for exactly two seconds before proceeding. I'll name this node \"Wait.\"\n\nThe connection between these first two nodes is straightforward: the main output of the \"Manual\" (Manual Trigger) node will connect to the main input of the \"Wait\" node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually started, the first action it takes is to hit that two-second delay.\n\nFinally, the prompt states the `Wait` node \"is connected to a Set node.\" This will be the last node in this sequence. I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion 1`. The `Set` node is a versatile utility in n8n for manipulating data. It allows you to add new fields, modify existing ones, or remove them from items passing through the workflow. In this particular case, the prompt doesn't specify any data manipulation, so the `Set` node will likely have default, empty `options` parameters. This means it will simply receive the item, potentially add no new data (unless specifically configured), and then pass it along, effectively acting as the final step of this simple chain. I'll name it \"Set.\"\n\nTo complete the connections, the main output of the \"Wait\" node will connect to the main input of the \"Set\" node. So, after the two-second delay is over, the item will immediately flow into the `Set` node, concluding the workflow's execution path. This setup perfectly matches all the requirements laid out." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON that uses a webhook to trigger retrieval of content from a Google Docs document and responds with the document's text content. Ensure it includes nodes for Webhook, Google Docs, and Respond to Webhook, with appropriate credentials and configurations.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetMemory\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"GetMemory\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1BvJFzEBew0ExBGfj0jUO2OSevJxJ5PB5I_jtEXwK7iQ\/edit?usp=drivesdk\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow from the ground up, as if I'm building it right now.\n\nFirst things first, the prompt clearly states that the workflow should be triggered by a webhook. So, the very first node I need is going to be a webhook listener. This is how the outside world will initiate our process.\n\n* I'll add a `Webhook` node, specifically of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion 2`. This node is perfect for receiving incoming HTTP requests and starting a workflow.\n* For its configuration, I'll set up a `path`. The JSON shows \"GetMemory\", which is a good descriptive path for what this workflow does. This means the webhook will be accessible at a URL like `[n8n_url]\/webhook\/GetMemory`.\n* Crucially, I need to decide how this webhook will respond. The goal is to retrieve content *and then* respond with it. This implies we can't respond immediately. So, I'll set the `responseMode` to \"responseNode\". This tells the webhook to wait for a subsequent `Respond to Webhook` node later in the workflow to send the actual response. This is essential for our flow.\n\nNow that we have the trigger in place, the next logical step, according to the prompt, is to retrieve content from a Google Docs document. So, after the webhook triggers, the data flow should go directly to a Google Docs node.\n\n* I'll add a `Google Docs` node, of type `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion 2`. This node is specifically designed for interacting with Google Docs, allowing us to perform operations like getting document content, creating documents, etc.\n* I'll connect the `Webhook` node's output to the input of this `Google Docs` node. This ensures that once the webhook fires, the workflow proceeds to fetch the document.\n* Regarding its parameters, the core operation here is to \"get\" the document's content. So, I'll set the `operation` to \"get\".\n* For the `documentURL`, this is where the specific URL of the Google Docs document we want to retrieve content from would be configured. It's a critical piece of information for the node to know which document to target.\n* Finally, to access Google Docs, this node will need credentials. A Google Docs OAuth2 credential would be configured here to authenticate with Google and ensure n8n has the necessary permissions to read the specified document.\n\nAfter successfully retrieving the content from Google Docs, the final step is to send that content back as a response to the original webhook request. Since we configured the initial `Webhook` node to wait for a `responseNode`, we need to add that next.\n\n* I'll add a `Respond to Webhook` node, of type `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion 1.1`. This node is specifically for sending a response back to a webhook trigger that was configured to wait for it.\n* I'll connect the output of the `Google Docs` node to the input of this `Respond to Webhook` node. This means that once the Google Docs content is retrieved, it flows into this node for formatting and sending as a response.\n* For the `respondWith` parameter, the prompt asks for the \"document's text content,\" so setting this to \"text\" is appropriate. This ensures the response is delivered as plain text.\n* For the `responseBody`, this is where we'll inject the actual document content. The `Google Docs` node, when successfully getting a document, typically outputs the document's text content in a field like `content`. So, I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` here. This tells the node to take the `content` property from the JSON data passed from the previous `Google Docs` node and use it as the response body. This dynamic data mapping is key to returning the specific document content.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the full flow: trigger via webhook, fetch content from Google Docs, and send that content back as a response. The connections ensure a smooth, sequential execution of these steps." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers manually and then posts \"This is a test workflow for the twitter node\" to Twitter using the \"twitter-credentials\" credentials. The trigger node should be on the left, connected to the Twitter node on the right.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"This is a test workflow for the twitter node\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Twitter\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.twitter\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Twitter\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed from the ground up. The user wants something that kicks off manually and then posts a specific message to Twitter. This sounds like a fairly straightforward two-step process, which is great.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the prompt, it explicitly says \"triggers manually.\" So, my immediate thought is to find a node that allows for a manual execution.\n\n* I'll go with the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. This is perfect because it does exactly what it says: it triggers the workflow when I manually click the 'Execute Workflow' button in the n8n interface.\n* The `typeVersion` for this node, as per the JSON, is `1`. This version handles the basic manual execution perfectly. I don't anticipate any issues or needing to consider an alternative version for this simple use case.\n* For its configuration, there are no specific parameters needed for a `manualTrigger` node itself. It simply outputs a basic item when triggered, signalling the start of the workflow. Its role is purely to initiate. I'll place this on the left side of my canvas, as it's the starting point.\n\nNow that I have my trigger, what's the next step? The prompt clearly states \"posts 'This is a test workflow for the twitter node' to Twitter.\" This immediately tells me I need a Twitter integration.\n\n* So, the next logical node would be something to interact with the Twitter API. I'd look for a `Twitter` node. In n8n, this is typically found as `n8n-nodes-base.twitter`.\n* The `typeVersion` for this specific Twitter node is `1`. This version should be perfectly capable of handling a simple text post. If I were dealing with more complex features like media uploads or specific tweet management, I might consider if a later version offered more robust options, but for a basic text post, version 1 is fine.\n* This `Twitter` node will naturally connect from the `manualTrigger` node. The output of the manual trigger will flow into the input of the Twitter node, signifying that once the workflow is started, the Twitter action should proceed. I'll position this to the right of the trigger node, following a logical left-to-right flow.\n\nNow, for the configuration of the `Twitter` node:\n* The main piece of information it needs is the text to tweet. The prompt specifies: \"This is a test workflow for the twitter node\". So, under the parameters for this node, I'd set the `text` field to exactly that string.\n* There's also an `additionalFields` object, but it's empty in the JSON, meaning no extra options like replying to a tweet, adding media, or setting a specific tweet ID are needed. This keeps it simple, just a plain text post.\n* Crucially, to post to Twitter, this node needs to authenticate. The JSON indicates `credentials: {\"twitterOAuth1Api\": \"twitter-credentials\"}`. This means I'd need to have pre-configured Twitter API credentials, possibly named \"twitter-credentials\" in n8n's credentials section. These credentials would contain the necessary API keys and tokens to allow n8n to connect to Twitter on behalf of a user. The exact values would, of course, be specific to the account being used and are never hardcoded directly into the workflow itself, only referenced by their name.\n\nFinally, the connection. The `connections` object in the JSON confirms my mental model:\n* The `On clicking 'execute'` (which is the `manualTrigger` node) has a `main` output that connects to the `Twitter` node's `main` input. This establishes the direct flow: trigger, then tweet. It's a very straightforward, linear workflow. The data from the manual trigger, which is just an empty item, effectively just signals to the Twitter node that it's time to execute its action. It doesn't pass specific data content in this case, but rather initiates the process." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers on execution, then sets a field called \"response\" to the string \"10 results found.\"\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Search DB\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [640, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"10 results found\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [860, 380]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think through building this n8n workflow from scratch. The request is quite specific: \"Create an n8n workflow that triggers on execution, then sets a field called \"response\" to the string \"10 results found.\"\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt says \"triggers on execution.\" When I hear \"on execution\" in n8n, my mind immediately goes to a node that initiates the workflow without needing an external event like a schedule, a webhook, or a database change.\n\nSo, for the first node, I'd pick an **Execute Workflow Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, this aligns perfectly with `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This type of node is ideal because it simply starts the workflow when you manually execute it (either via a \"Test Workflow\" run, or by activating it and hitting \"Execute Workflow\" if that option is available for active workflows, though typically it's for immediate testing). It doesn't require any specific configuration; its mere presence at the start of the workflow means it will generate an item to kick things off. Its `parameters` object is empty, which is exactly what I'd expect for such a simple trigger.\n\nNow that we have the workflow started, the next part of the request is to \"set a field called 'response' to the string '10 results found.'\" This clearly tells me I need a node that can manipulate the data flowing through the workflow, specifically by adding or modifying fields on the items.\n\nThe most suitable node for this task is typically the **Set** node, which is often named \"Edit Fields\" in the n8n UI. Looking at the JSON, the second node is indeed `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion 3.4`. This node is perfect because its primary purpose is to add new fields or modify existing ones on incoming items.\n\nLet's think about how to configure this Set node. We need to create a new field named \"response\" and assign it a specific string value.\nInside the `parameters` of this Set node, I'd expect to see an `assignments` array.\n* Within that `assignments` array, there should be an object for our new field.\n* The `name` property for this assignment needs to be \"response\", matching the prompt exactly.\n* The `value` property should be \"10 results found\", again, as specified.\n* And it's good practice to define the `type` of the value, which in this case is a \"string\".\nThe JSON confirms this setup: `{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"10 results found\", \"type\": \"string\"}`. This is precisely how I would configure it. The `id` is just an internal identifier for that specific assignment within the node. The `options` property is empty, which means no advanced settings like \"keep only set fields\" or \"add output field\" are being used, which is fine for this simple requirement.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The `Execute Workflow Trigger` should pass its output directly to the `Edit Fields` (Set) node. The JSON's `connections` object shows this perfectly: `{\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the main output of the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node feeds into the first input (`index: 0`) of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This ensures that when the workflow triggers and generates an empty item, that item then proceeds to the Set node where the \"response\" field is added to it.\n\nThe workflow structure is quite simple and direct: Trigger -> Set Data. It perfectly fulfills the user's request. There aren't any complex branching or looping logic needed here. No external services or credentials are required, just internal data manipulation. The chosen nodes are the most direct and efficient way to achieve the goal." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with a \"Mock Data\" function node that outputs an array of strings (e.g., \"item-1\", \"item-2\") within a JSON object, and connect it to a \"Function\" node that iterates over the string array and creates new JSON objects with a \"data\" key for each item.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"return [{json:[\\\"item-1\\\", \\\"item-2\\\", \\\"item-3\\\", \\\"item-4\\\"]}];\"}, \"name\": \"Mock Data\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.function\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [550, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"return items[0].json.map(item => {\\n return {\\n json: {\\n data:item\\n },\\n }\\n});\\n\"}, \"name\": \"Function\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.function\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [750, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Mock Data\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Function\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow designed. The request is to set up a workflow that first generates some mock data, specifically an array of strings, and then processes that array into a different JSON structure.\n\nI think the best way to start here, given the requirement to generate mock data *within* the workflow itself, is to use a Function node. It's incredibly flexible for custom data generation or manipulation using JavaScript.\n\nSo, for the first step, I'd add a Function node. I'll call it \"Mock Data\" as per the prompt. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.function`, and based on the provided JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node type is perfect because I can write a little bit of JavaScript to define exactly what data I want to output.\n\nFor its configuration, specifically the `functionCode` parameter, I need it to output an array of strings, like \"item-1\", \"item-2\", but wrapped within a JSON object. Looking at the JSON, it's `return [{json:[\"item-1\", \"item-2\", \"item-3\", \"item-4\"]}];`. This is concise and directly creates an item with a `json` key holding the string array. So, when this node executes, it will output a single item containing that JSON structure. This is a very clean way to simulate an input that might come from an external API or a database query.\n\nNow, with our mock data source set up, the next logical step is to process that data. The prompt specifies connecting it to another Function node that iterates over the string array and transforms each string into a new JSON object with a \"data\" key. This definitely sounds like a job for another Function node, as it allows for custom data transformation.\n\nSo, I'll add another Function node, which I'll simply name \"Function\" as per the JSON. It will also be of `type: n8n-nodes-base.function` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node will receive the output from our \"Mock Data\" node.\n\nThe connection between \"Mock Data\" and this \"Function\" node will be a standard `main` connection. The output from \"Mock Data\" will flow into the input of \"Function\". Specifically, the single item output by \"Mock Data\" will become the `items` array within the \"Function\" node's JavaScript context.\n\nFor the `functionCode` parameter of this second \"Function\" node, I need to access that array of strings and then transform it. The input from the previous node will be available as `items`. Since \"Mock Data\" outputs a single item with a `json` property containing the array, I'll access it via `items[0].json`. Then, I can use the `map` function in JavaScript, which is ideal for transforming each element of an array into a new one.\n\nThe transformation itself needs to create new JSON objects, each with a \"data\" key containing one of the string items. So, for each `item` in the array, the code `return { json: { data:item } }` will create the desired output structure.\n\nPutting it all together, the `functionCode` for the \"Function\" node would be:\n`return items[0].json.map(item => { return { json: { data:item }, }; });`\n\nThis will take the `[\"item-1\", \"item-2\", \"item-3\", \"item-4\"]` array, and for each string, it will produce a separate n8n item like `{ json: { data: \"item-1\" } }`, `{ json: { data: \"item-2\" } }`, and so on. This effectively flattens and transforms the initial array into multiple distinct items, each carrying the transformed data as required. This approach is very common in n8n for processing lists of data." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that creates an AI Agent which receives chat messages, uses an OpenAI chat model (gpt-4o-mini), a simple memory buffer, and SerpAPI as a tool.

Looking at the requirements, \"receives chat messages\" immediately tells me I need a trigger specifically for chat. So, I'd begin by adding the **When chat message received** node. This is of type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. It's the perfect starting point because it's designed to listen for incoming chat messages and kick off the workflow. There aren't many specific configurations needed for this node itself, just that it's set up to listen.\n\nNext, the core of this workflow is an \"AI Agent.\" This suggests I'll need a dedicated agent node to orchestrate the language model, memory, and tools. So, I'll bring in the **AI Agent** node. This is of type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.agent` with `typeVersion 1.8`. This node will be the brain of our operation, deciding how to respond to messages, whether to use a tool, or to simply chat. It's going to need several inputs, as the prompt specifies, like connections for the chat trigger, OpenAI model, memory, and the SerpAPI tool.\n\nNow that I have the trigger and the agent node, I can connect the trigger's output, which is the incoming chat message, to the agent's main input. So, the `main` output of \"When chat message received\" will connect to the `main` input of the \"AI Agent\" node. This ensures the agent receives the initial chat message to process.\n\nThe agent needs a language model to understand and generate text. The prompt specifically asks for an \"OpenAI chat model (gpt-4o-mini)\". This points directly to the **OpenAI Chat Model** node. I'll add this node, which is of type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatOpenAi` with `typeVersion 1.2`. Inside its parameters, I'd make sure to set the `model` to `gpt-4o-mini`, as requested. This is crucial for defining the AI's \"voice\" and capabilities. Of course, an OpenAI API key would be configured in its credentials for authentication; its exact value would be provided by the user.\n\nOnce the OpenAI Chat Model node is set up, it needs to be connected to the AI Agent. This is a specific connection type: the `ai_languageModel` output of the \"OpenAI Chat Model\" will connect to the `ai_languageModel` input of the \"AI Agent\" node. This tells the agent which language model to use for its internal reasoning and for generating responses.\n\nThe prompt also mentions \"a simple memory buffer\". This is vital for the agent to remember past conversations, providing context for ongoing chat. For this, I'll add the **Simple Memory** node. This node is of type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.memoryBufferWindow` with `typeVersion 1.3`. This type of memory is straightforward and perfect for maintaining a short-term conversation history. It doesn't require specific parameters for this basic setup.\n\nThis memory node then needs to be linked to the AI Agent. The `ai_memory` output of \"Simple Memory\" will connect to the `ai_memory` input of the \"AI Agent\". This connection provides the agent with access to the conversation history, allowing it to maintain context across turns.\n\nFinally, the prompt asks for \"SerpAPI as a tool\". This means the agent should be able to perform searches when necessary. So, I'll add the **SerpAPI** node. This is of type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.toolSerpApi` with `typeVersion 1`. This node encapsulates the functionality to query SerpAPI. Similar to the OpenAI model, this node would require an API key configured in its credentials, which would be provided by the user.\n\nAnd just like the other components, the SerpAPI tool needs to be available to the AI Agent. So, the `ai_tool` output of the \"SerpAPI\" node will connect to the `ai_tool` input of the \"AI Agent\" node. This allows the agent to decide, based on the conversation and its internal reasoning, whether and when to use SerpAPI to gather information.\n\nThis structure seems to cover all the requirements: the chat trigger starts it, the AI Agent orchestrates everything, using the OpenAI model for intelligence, simple memory for context, and SerpAPI as a tool for external knowledge. Each connection passes the specific type of information the agent needs to function effectively." } { "prompt": "Create a JSON object representing an n8n workflow that reads a PDF file using \"Read Binary File\" and \"Read PDF\" nodes, starting from a \"Start\" node.

The goal is pretty clear: read a PDF file using the \"Read Binary File\" and \"Read PDF\" nodes.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, right? So, I'll begin by adding a **Start** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.start`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This is the standard entry point for a workflow. It doesn't require any special configuration; it just acts as the trigger to initiate the sequence of operations that follow. It's perfect for a workflow that might be manually triggered or called as a sub-workflow.\n\nNext, the prompt specifically mentions reading a PDF file. Before we can parse the PDF content itself, we need to actually *get* the file. Since it's a file from the local system (specified as `\/tmp\/04-valid.pdf`), the appropriate node to fetch its binary content would be the \"Read Binary File\" node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node is designed precisely for reading files from the local file system and outputting their content as binary data. A PDF is a binary format, so this is the correct way to acquire the file's raw content.\n* **Configuration:** This is where we specify *which* file to read. The prompt clearly states the file path as `\/tmp\/04-valid.pdf`. So, I'll configure the `filePath` parameter of this node to `\"\/tmp\/04-valid.pdf\"`. This tells the node exactly where to find the PDF file on the system.\n* **Connection:** I'll connect the \"Start\" node to this \"Read Binary File\" node. The \"Start\" node will simply trigger the execution of \"Read Binary File,\" causing it to go and fetch the specified PDF.\n\nNow that we've read the binary content of the PDF, the next logical step, as per the prompt, is to process that content as a PDF. This means we need the \"Read PDF\" node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.readPDF`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node specializes in parsing PDF data. It expects binary input (which the \"Read Binary File\" node will provide) and extracts structured information from it, typically the text content, and potentially other metadata. This is exactly what we need after fetching the raw PDF file.\n* **Configuration:** Looking at the provided structure, this node doesn't require any specific parameters to be set. It will simply take the binary data it receives from the incoming connection and attempt to parse it as a PDF.\n* **Connection:** I'll connect the \"Read Binary File\" node to this \"Read PDF\" node. The key here is that the \"Read Binary File\" node will output the binary content of `\/tmp\/04-valid.pdf`, and this output will then serve as the input for the \"Read PDF\" node, allowing it to perform its parsing function. This ensures the data flows correctly from getting the file to processing its contents." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a manual trigger connected to a Bitly node that shortens the URL \"https:\/\/calendar.usc.edu\/event\/curricular_practical_training_cpt_information_session_8120?utm_campaign=widget&utm_medium=widget&utm_source=USC+Event+Calendar#.Xv0UlpNKhQK\" using the \"test\" Bitly API credentials.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [490, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"longUrl\": \"https:\/\/calendar.usc.edu\/event\/curricular_practical_training_cpt_information_session_8120?utm_campaign=widget&utm_medium=widget&utm_source=USC+Event+Calendar#.Xv0UlpNKhQK\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Bitly\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.bitly\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [830, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Bitly\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think through how to build this n8n workflow from the ground up, based on the prompt and the provided JSON.\n\nThe user's request is quite clear: \"Generate an n8n workflow with a manual trigger connected to a Bitly node that shortens the URL... using the 'test' Bitly API credentials.\" This gives us a direct path to follow.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a way to initiate its execution. The prompt explicitly asks for a \"manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me I need to add a trigger node that can be activated directly by a user.\n\n* So, I'd begin by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and in this context, `typeVersion 1` is the standard and appropriate choice. This node is perfect for when you want to run a workflow on demand, perhaps for testing, or for an action that isn't scheduled or event-driven. I don't need to configure any specific parameters for this node, as its sole purpose is to start the workflow when an operator clicks the \"execute\" button in the n8n UI. It just acts as a simple push-button start.\n\nNext, the core action is to \"shorten the URL\" using Bitly. This clearly indicates that we'll need a node that can interact with the Bitly API. n8n has a dedicated Bitly node, which is much more convenient than trying to construct an HTTP Request node from scratch for this purpose.\n\n* Therefore, the next logical step is to add a **Bitly** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.bitly`, and again, `typeVersion 1` is what the JSON specifies, which works perfectly for a basic URL shortening operation. I would connect the main output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" manual trigger node to the main input of this Bitly node. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, the Bitly node will receive the signal to proceed.\n\nNow, let's think about configuring this Bitly node. The prompt gives us two crucial pieces of information: the URL to shorten and the credentials to use.\n\n* The prompt specifies the exact URL: `\"https:\/\/calendar.usc.edu\/event\/curricular_practical_training_cpt_information_session_8120?utm_campaign=widget&utm_medium=widget&utm_source=USC+Event+Calendar#.Xv0UlpNKhQK\"`. This value needs to be directly placed into the `longUrl` parameter of the Bitly node. Since it's a fixed, known URL, there's no need for an expression or dynamic data passing; it's a static configuration for this particular workflow.\n* The prompt also states \"using the 'test' Bitly API credentials.\" This tells me that under the `credentials` section of the Bitly node, I need to select or reference the Bitly API credentials that are named \"test.\" In the JSON, this is represented as `{\"bitlyApi\": \"test\"}`. This is where the actual Bitly API key or access token would be securely stored within n8n's credentials manager. The node simply references that stored credential by its given name, \"test\", to authenticate with the Bitly service. This keeps sensitive information out of the workflow definition itself.\n* Looking at the `additionalFields` parameter, the JSON shows it as an empty object (`{}`). This implies that no extra options like setting a custom domain for the short link, adding tags, or setting a specific title are being used. For a straightforward URL shortening as requested, these additional fields are not necessary, so leaving them empty is appropriate.\n\nSo, to summarize the connections: the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node simply triggers the workflow, and its default output connects directly to the input of the \"Bitly\" node. The Bitly node then performs the shortening operation using the configured URL and credentials. The data flow is quite simple here: trigger -> action. There's no complex data transformation or routing needed between these two nodes." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that sends an alert to SIGNL4, then resolves it using the returned event ID. The workflow should include Start, SIGNL4 (send alert), and SIGNL4 (resolve alert) nodes with appropriate credentials and expressions for message, title, and external ID.\n", "json": "{\"name\": \"SIGNL4:Alert:send resolve\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Start\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.start\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"message\": \"=test{{Date.now()}}\", \"additionalFields\": {\"title\": \"=Title{{Date.now()}}\"}}, \"name\": \"SIGNL4\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.signl4\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"resolve\", \"externalId\": \"={{$node[\\\"SIGNL4\\\"].json[\\\"eventId\\\"]}}\"}, \"name\": \"SIGNL\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.signl4\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"SIGNL4\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"SIGNL\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Start\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"SIGNL4\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get started on designing this workflow. The goal here is pretty clear from the prompt: we need to generate a SIGNL4 alert and then, crucially, resolve it right away using the ID we get back from sending the alert. This is a common pattern for ensuring that an alert that was triggered is then automatically closed once its condition is met or an automated action has been taken.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow in n8n needs a starting point. It's like the entry gate for the workflow execution.\n\n* **Node 1: Start**\n * I'll begin by adding a **Start** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.start` and `typeVersion` is 1.\n * Why this node? It's the simplest and most fundamental way to kick off a workflow manually or when it's triggered externally (though in this case, it's just a manual start for demonstration). It doesn't require any specific configuration; it just provides a clean entry point. It's essentially a placeholder to get the workflow going without needing a complex trigger like a schedule or webhook.\n\nOnce the workflow is initiated by the Start node, the very first action we need to perform, according to the prompt, is to send an alert to SIGNL4.\n\n* **Node 2: SIGNL4 (Send Alert)**\n * So, the next logical step is to add a **SIGNL4** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.signl4` and `typeVersion` is 1. This node is specifically designed to interact with the SIGNL4 API, making it the perfect choice for sending and managing alerts.\n * I'll connect the `main` output of the `Start` node to the `main` input of this `SIGNL4` node. This ensures that as soon as the workflow starts, it proceeds directly to sending the alert.\n * Now, for its configuration. To send an alert, we absolutely need to provide a `message`. Looking at the JSON, it's using an expression: `=test{{Date.now()}}`. This is a smart choice. By embedding `Date.now()`, which returns the current timestamp, every time this workflow runs, it generates a unique message. This is incredibly helpful for testing purposes, as you can easily distinguish between different alerts sent during various runs.\n * Similarly, for the `title` (which is an `additionalField` in the parameters), it uses `=Title{{Date.now()}}`. Again, this ensures a unique title for each alert instance, which is great for tracking.\n * Regarding credentials, this node will require authentication to connect to the SIGNL4 service. I'd set up a `signl4Api` credential here. The specific details, like an API key or team ID, would be configured within that credential entry, but I don't need to specify their actual values here in the node itself. The JSON indicates it references an existing credential ID, which is the standard n8n way.\n\nNow comes the critical part of resolving the alert. The prompt explicitly states we need to use the `eventId` returned by the first SIGNL4 node. This means the second SIGNL4 node *must* run after the first one has successfully sent the alert and received a response.\n\n* **Node 3: SIGNL (Resolve Alert)**\n * Following the first `SIGNL4` node, I'll add another **SIGNL4** node. The `type` is again `n8n-nodes-base.signl4` and `typeVersion` is 1, as it's performing an action within the same service.\n * I'll connect the `main` output of the first `SIGNL4` (send alert) node to the `main` input of this second `SIGNL4` node (which is named \"SIGNL\" in the JSON). This sequential connection is vital because we depend on the output of the first node.\n * For the configuration of this \"resolve\" node:\n * The most important parameter here is `operation`. It needs to be set to `resolve`. This tells the SIGNL4 node that instead of creating a new alert, its purpose is to close an existing one.\n * Then, to tell SIGNL4 *which* alert to resolve, we use the `externalId` field. This is where the magic happens. The expression used here is `={{$node[\\\"SIGNL4\\\"].json[\\\"eventId\\\"]}}`. This expression directly references the data output by the previous node, which was named \"SIGNL4\" (the one that sent the alert). Specifically, it's looking for the `eventId` property within the JSON response from that \"SIGNL4\" node. This ensures that the alert we just created is the one that gets resolved. This kind of dynamic data passing between nodes is a core capability of n8n and is precisely what makes this two-step process so effective.\n * Just like the previous SIGNL4 node, this one will also use the same `signl4Api` credentials to authenticate with the SIGNL4 service. It's logical to reuse the same credentials for interacting with the same service.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It's a straightforward linear flow: start, send an alert, then immediately resolve that very same alert using its ID." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, lists all objects from the 'n8n-docs' AWS S3 bucket, and then sends each object's S3 URI to an AWS Transcribe node, configured to detect language and name the job dynamically using the S3 object's key (replacing spaces with hyphens).", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [190, 160]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"mediaFileUri\": \"=s3:\/\/{{$node[\\\"AWS S3\\\"].parameter[\\\"bucketName\\\"]}}\/{{$json[\\\"Key\\\"]}}\", \"detectLanguage\": true, \"transcriptionJobName\": \"={{$json[\\\"Key\\\"].replace(\/\\\\s\/g,'-')}}\"}, \"name\": \"AWS Transcribe\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.awsTranscribe\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [590, 160]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\", \"returnAll\": true, \"bucketName\": \"n8n-docs\"}, \"name\": \"AWS S3\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.awsS3\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [390, 160]}], \"connections\": {\"AWS S3\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AWS Transcribe\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AWS S3\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break this down step by step, thinking about how we'd build this workflow from scratch.\n\nFirst off, when I look at the request, the very first thing that jumps out is the need for a trigger. The prompt says \"manually triggers,\" so that immediately tells me what my first node should be.\n\nI'd start by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, this corresponds to the node named \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is perfect for kick-starting a workflow whenever I need to, simply by clicking a button in the n8n interface. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters itself; its sole purpose is to initiate the flow.\n\nNext, the prompt requires listing \"all objects from the 'n8n-docs' AWS S3 bucket.\" So, naturally, after the trigger, I'll need a node that can interact with AWS S3.\n\nI'd then add an **AWS S3** node. In the JSON, this node is named \"AWS S3\" and is of type `n8n-nodes-base.awsS3` with `typeVersion 1`. This is the core node for handling S3 operations.\n* For its configuration, the prompt specifically says \"list all objects.\" So, I'd set the `operation` parameter to `getAll`. This ensures we're retrieving a list of all items, not just a single one or performing a different action.\n* Since we want *all* objects, I'd also make sure `returnAll` is set to `true`. If this were false, it might only return a limited number of items per execution, which isn't what we want here.\n* The bucket name is explicitly given as `'n8n-docs'`, so I'd configure the `bucketName` parameter directly with that value.\n* Of course, this node would also require appropriate AWS credentials to connect to S3. I'd have a generic placeholder for those credentials.\n\nNow, how does this connect? The \"On clicking 'execute'\" node simply passes a single empty item to the AWS S3 node, telling it to go ahead and perform its operation. So, I'd draw a main connection from \"On clicking 'execute'\" to \"AWS S3\".\n\nAfter the AWS S3 node successfully lists all the objects, it will output a separate item for each object found in the bucket. This is important because the next step is to \"send *each* object's S3 URI to an AWS Transcribe node.\" This means the Transcribe node needs to run once for every item that comes out of the S3 node.\n\nSo, the next logical step is to add an **AWS Transcribe** node. Looking at the JSON, this is the node named \"AWS Transcribe\", type `n8n-nodes-base.awsTranscribe`, `typeVersion 1`. This node is designed to interact with the AWS Transcribe service.\n* The most critical part here is providing the `mediaFileUri`. The prompt specifies \"each object's S3 URI\". The data coming from the AWS S3 node will contain details about each object, including its key (filename\/path). The bucket name is something we already know from the S3 node's configuration. So, I'd construct this URI dynamically using an expression. The JSON uses `s3:\/\/{{$node[\\\"AWS S3\\\"].parameter[\\\"bucketName\\\"]}}\/{{$json[\\\"Key\\\"]}}`. This is perfect: `s3:\/\/` is the standard prefix, `{{$node[\\\"AWS S3\\\"].parameter[\\\"bucketName\\\"]}}` dynamically retrieves the bucket name that was configured in the previous S3 node, and `{{$json[\\\"Key\\\"]}}` accesses the 'Key' property from the current S3 object's data (which is what the AWS S3 node outputs for each object). This creates the complete S3 path for the media file.\n* Next, the prompt states \"configured to detect language.\" So, I'd ensure the `detectLanguage` parameter is set to `true`.\n* Finally, the prompt requires naming the job \"dynamically using the S3 object's key (replacing spaces with hyphens).\" This again calls for an expression. The JSON uses `={{$json[\\\"Key\\\"].replace(\/\\\\s\/g,'-')}}`. This is exactly right. It takes the `Key` from the current S3 object data, and then uses a JavaScript `replace` method with a regular expression (`\/\\\\s\/g`) to find all whitespace characters (`\\s`) globally (`g`) and replace them with hyphens (`-`). This ensures the job name is relevant to the file and properly formatted.\n* Just like the S3 node, this Transcribe node would also require its specific AWS credentials.\n\nThe connection for this last step would be a main connection from the \"AWS S3\" node to the \"AWS Transcribe\" node. As mentioned, because \"AWS S3\" with `getAll` outputs multiple items, the \"AWS Transcribe\" node will execute once for each of those items, creating a separate transcription job for every single object found in the S3 bucket.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the requirements and the provided JSON structure." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'My workflow' that starts with a basic Schedule Trigger, which then flows into a 'Set' node, followed by a 'Set1' node.

The user wants a pretty straightforward chain starting with a schedule, and then modifying the data a couple of times.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt specifically asks for a \"basic Schedule Trigger.\" So, I'll definitely start there.\n\nI'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is 1, which is common for this basic trigger. This type of node is perfect because it's designed to run a workflow at predefined intervals or at specific times, which aligns perfectly with a \"Schedule Trigger\" requirement. Looking at the JSON, the parameters for the rule are quite basic, just `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`, meaning it's configured for a default interval, perhaps every hour or whatever the system's default basic interval is. This fulfills the \"basic\" requirement nicely.\n\nNow, a crucial part of the prompt is to demonstrate specific output fields from this Schedule Trigger: 'count', 'with space', 'with.dot', and 'with\"quotes'. The `pinData` in the provided JSON is super helpful here. It explicitly shows `{\"json\": {\"input\": [{\"count\": 0, \"with space\": \"!!\", \"with.dot\": \"!!\", \"with\\\"quotes\": \"!!\"}]}}` as example input. This is important because while a standard schedule trigger might just output a count or timestamp, this specific `pinData` entry ensures that when the workflow is tested or executed in the n8n editor, it simulates this exact data structure coming out of the trigger. It's a way to ensure downstream nodes can expect and handle these field names, especially the ones with spaces, dots, and quotes, which sometimes require special handling in expressions.\n\nNext up, the prompt says the Schedule Trigger should flow into a 'Set' node. So, the output of my 'Schedule Trigger' will connect to the input of this new node.\n\nI'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and the JSON indicates `typeVersion: 3.3`. The 'Set' node is incredibly useful for manipulating data, specifically for adding new properties, modifying existing ones, or removing them. In this case, the requirement is to add an empty string property named 'other'. So, I'll configure this 'Set' node to do just that. Under its parameters, I'll specify an assignment: `name: \"other\"`, `value: \"\"`, and importantly, `type: \"string\"`. This ensures that every item passing through this node will have a new 'other' property, initialized as an empty string. This is a common pattern when you need to introduce a placeholder property for later use or just to standardize the data structure.\n\nFollowing the first 'Set' node, the prompt specifies another 'Set' node, named 'Set1'. So, I'll take the output of my first 'Set' node and connect it directly to the input of this new 'Set1' node.\n\nThis 'Set1' node will also be of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.3`, just like the previous one. The requirement for this node is identical: it should also add an empty string property named 'other'. While it might seem redundant to add the same property twice, in a real-world scenario, the second 'Set' node might be adding a *different* property, or perhaps modifying the one added by the first 'Set' node based on some condition. For this specific prompt, I'm just mirroring the configuration, so it will also have an assignment: `name: \"other\"`, `value: \"\"`, `type: \"string\"`. This ensures consistency with the prompt's instructions.\n\nFinally, I'll just double-check the connections. The `connections` object in the JSON confirms:\n- 'Schedule Trigger' connects its 'main' output to the 'main' input of 'Set'.\n- 'Set' connects its 'main' output to the 'main' input of 'Set1'.\nThis creates a simple, linear flow as requested.

The name, \"[UDIA] Securizaci\u00f3n de Webhooks,\" also needs to be applied at the workflow level.\n\nNow, for the core of the workflow: \"a single Webhook node.\" This is explicitly stated, so I know exactly what kind of node I need to begin with.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **Type Version**: `2`\n\nWhy this node? Well, it's the only type of node in n8n that can act as an external trigger by listening for HTTP requests. It's perfect for receiving data from outside the workflow. Version 2 is the current standard for this node, providing all the necessary features for configuration, including authentication options. I'd typically just pick the latest stable version unless there was a specific reason to use an older one, which isn't the case here.\n\nNow, let's configure this Webhook node based on the prompt's requirements. I'll look at its `parameters`:\n\n* **`httpMethod`**: The prompt specifies \"POST requests.\" So, I need to set `httpMethod` to `\"POST\"`. This means the webhook will only trigger if an incoming request uses the POST method, ignoring GET, PUT, or DELETE. This is fundamental for how the external system will interact with it.\n* **`path`**: The prompt states the path is \"`Udiasecurity`.\" This means the URL for this webhook will end with `\/webhook\/Udiasecurity` (or similar, depending on the n8n instance's base URL). This unique path ensures that this specific workflow is triggered, rather than any other webhook configured in the system.\n* **`authentication`**: The prompt clearly says \"using JWT authentication.\" This is a critical security requirement. I'll set the `authentication` parameter to `\"jwtAuth\"`. This tells the webhook to expect a JSON Web Token in the incoming request, which it will then validate using a pre-configured credential. Without this, the webhook would be publicly accessible, which isn't the goal here.\n* **`options`**: The JSON shows an empty `{}` for `options`. This implies no special configurations like \"Response Mode\" or \"Return Binary Data\" are needed for this basic trigger. It'll just listen and pass the incoming data.\n\nNext, related to the authentication, I'd expect to see a `credentials` block within the node's definition.\n* **`credentials`**: Since I selected `jwtAuth` for authentication, the node needs to know which JWT credential to use. The JSON shows `{\"jwtAuth\": {\"id\": \"YgghXmLcHa0SpFUd\", \"name\": \"JWT Auth account\"}}`. This tells me that a JWT credential, likely named \"JWT Auth account,\" has been pre-configured in n8n, and this webhook node is linked to it. This credential would contain the secret key or public key necessary to verify the JWT signatures. I wouldn't know the actual secret, but the connection is established.\n\nFinally, some other properties for the node:\n* `position`: `[0, 0]` simply places the node at the top-left of the canvas. For a single node, this is just a default visual placement.\n* `id` and `webhookId`: These are internal unique identifiers generated by n8n. The `id` is for the node itself within the workflow, and `webhookId` is specifically for the exposed HTTP endpoint.\n* `name`: `\"Webhook\"` is a perfectly descriptive name for this node on the canvas.\n\nLooking at the overall workflow JSON, the `active: false` flag correctly sets the workflow to be inactive initially, as requested. The `connections` object is empty, which makes sense because there's only one node and it's a trigger, so nothing is flowing *out* of it to another node *within* this specific workflow. The `settings` like `executionOrder: \"v1\"` are standard n8n internal configurations that ensure the workflow runs with the default engine version.\n\nSo, in essence, I've designed a straightforward, secure entry point for an external system using a single, appropriately configured Webhook node." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow consisting of a 'Schedule Trigger' node, configured with no specific interval, connected to a 'Set' node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Schedule Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [420, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [640, 260]}], \"connections\": {\"Schedule Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. My goal is to create a simple workflow based on the user's request: a 'Schedule Trigger' connected to a 'Set' node, with a specific configuration for the trigger.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick things off. The user specifically asked for a 'Schedule Trigger' node. This is perfect for initiating a workflow either on a recurring schedule or, in this case, based on a more flexible or one-time trigger as requested.\n\nSo, I'll start by adding a **Schedule Trigger** node. Looking at the provided JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This type of node is ideal because it's designed to start workflows automatically based on time, and it can also be configured for manual execution or immediate run, which aligns with the \"no specific interval\" requirement. Version 1 is a common and stable version for this node, so I'll stick with that.\n\nNow, about its configuration. The user prompt says \"configured with no specific interval.\" The JSON shows `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This is interesting. An empty array for `interval` inside the `rule` parameter effectively means there isn't a defined recurring schedule like \"every hour\" or \"every day.\" Depending on how n8n interprets this, it usually defaults to a workflow that can be triggered manually, or, if activated, might run once immediately upon activation without a strict future schedule. For this particular setup, `interval: [{}]` provides that \"no specific interval\" behavior by omitting any explicit time units (like days, hours, minutes). It effectively leaves the scheduling rule open, meaning it's not set to repeat at regular intervals. This is a very clean way to meet that requirement. It's not trying to force a single run using a 'Once' option, but rather leaving the scheduling rule undefined for repetition.\n\nAfter the trigger, the user wants a 'Set' node. This is quite straightforward. A **Set** node is fantastic for manipulating data, adding new fields, modifying existing ones, or simply passing data through without changes. In many cases, it's used as a placeholder, or to ensure that data flows correctly between nodes, even if no actual data transformation is happening yet.\n\nSo, I'll add the **Set** node right after the Schedule Trigger. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is `1`, according to the JSON. This is the standard type for basic data manipulation or just passing data through. Version 1 is typical and widely used.\n\nLooking at the `parameters` for the Set node, the JSON specifies `{\"options\": {}}`. An empty `options` object means that this Set node isn't configured to add or modify any specific fields. It will essentially act as a pass-through node, taking whatever data the Schedule Trigger outputs (which is usually a basic JSON object indicating the trigger time and possibly some execution metadata) and passing it directly to any subsequent nodes without modification. This is perfect for a simple example where the 'Set' node is just there to fulfill the prompt's requirement without needing complex logic. It could be seen as a point where future data manipulation would occur.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The flow of data in n8n typically goes from a trigger or an upstream node to a downstream node. The Schedule Trigger node, being the starting point, will have an output connection. I'll connect its 'main' output to the 'main' input of the Set node. The JSON confirms this connection: `{\"Schedule Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means that whenever the Schedule Trigger runs (either manually or based on its \"no specific interval\" activation), the execution flow and any initial data it generates will be passed directly into the Set node for processing. This is a standard, direct connection. Data will simply flow from left to right, as depicted by their positions in the JSON. The Schedule Trigger will emit an item, and the Set node will receive it." } { "prompt": "Generate a workflow that sends a Slack message to the `#new-driver-signup` channel, stating \"A new driver has signed up!\", whenever a new driver (worker) is created in Onfleet.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Onfleet Driver signup message in Slack\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerOn\": \"workerCreated\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Onfleet Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.onfleetTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"A new driver has signed up!\", \"channel\": \"#new-driver-signup\", \"attachments\": [], \"otherOptions\": {}}, \"name\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.slack\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Onfleet Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's think through building this workflow from the ground up, just as if I were designing it myself.\n\nFirst things first, I need to understand the core requirement: \"whenever a new driver (worker) is created in Onfleet\" and then \"sends a Slack message...\". This tells me I'll need two main components: something to *listen* for an event in Onfleet, and something to *act* on that event by sending a message to Slack.\n\nSo, I'd start by considering the trigger. The prompt clearly states \"whenever a new driver (worker) is created in Onfleet\". This immediately points me towards an Onfleet-specific trigger node. I don't want to poll Onfleet constantly; I want an event-driven setup.\n\nLooking at the n8n nodes available, an **Onfleet Trigger** node seems perfect for this. It's designed to listen for specific events happening within Onfleet. Based on the JSON, the node I'm looking for is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.onfleetTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how would I configure this Onfleet Trigger node?\n* The most critical parameter here is `triggerOn`. The prompt specifically says \"new driver (worker) is created\". So, I'd set `triggerOn` to `'workerCreated'`. This tells the node to activate only when a new worker (driver) is added in Onfleet.\n* It also needs to authenticate with Onfleet. So, I'd configure the `credentials` section with an Onfleet API key. The specific value would, of course, be provided by the user for their Onfleet account.\n* The `webhookId` parameter seen in the JSON is something n8n generates automatically when the workflow is activated and connected to Onfleet. It's an internal identifier for the webhook that Onfleet will call.\n\nAlright, so the trigger is set up. Now, what happens *after* a new driver is created? The workflow needs to send a Slack message.\n\nNaturally, the next step would be to add a Slack node. This node will receive the event from the Onfleet Trigger and then perform the action of sending a message. So, I'd add a **Slack** node. From the JSON, I can see it's of `type: n8n-nodes-base.slack` and `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nHow do I configure this Slack node to meet the requirements?\n* The prompt specifies the message text: \"A new driver has signed up!\". So, I'd set the `text` parameter in the Slack node to this exact string. It's a static message, so no need for complex expressions or data mapping from the previous node, though that's an option for more dynamic messages.\n* It also specifies the channel: \"`#new-driver-signup`\". So, I'd configure the `channel` parameter to `#new-driver-signup`.\n* The `attachments` and `otherOptions` would be left empty, as the prompt doesn't require any special formatting or attachments, just a simple text message.\n* Just like the Onfleet node, this Slack node needs to authenticate with Slack. So, I'd configure the `credentials` here, which would involve providing a Slack API credential for the user's Slack workspace.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The output of the Onfleet Trigger should flow into the input of the Slack node. This creates the sequential execution: when Onfleet sends a `workerCreated` event, the Onfleet Trigger fires, and its output (even if not explicitly used by the Slack message, it signals execution) tells the Slack node to run. The `connections` in the JSON confirm this: `Onfleet Trigger`'s `main` output connects to the `Slack` node's `main` input. This ensures that every time a new driver is created, that message gets sent.\n\nThis setup looks solid. It's a straightforward, two-node workflow that perfectly addresses the prompt's requirements. No need for data transformation or complex logic since the message is static. Simple and efficient!" } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow: Start with a manual trigger, connect it to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields1' that adds a string field 'message' with value 'hello there'.

I'm looking at the user's prompt and the provided JSON, and I'll walk through my thought process as I assemble it.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the JSON, the very first node is a `manualTrigger`. That makes perfect sense for a workflow that needs to be initiated manually, like when you're testing it or if it's meant to be run on demand. So, I'd begin by dropping in a Trigger node. Specifically, it's `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is ideal because the user prompt mentions \"Start with a manual trigger,\" and this is exactly what it does \u2013 it provides a simple button to kick off the execution. I wouldn't need to configure much for this one; it just sits there, ready to be clicked. Its name in the JSON is \"When clicking \u2018Execute workflow\u2019\", which is its default and perfectly descriptive.\n\nAlright, what's next? The prompt says, \"connect it to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields1' that adds a string field 'message' with value 'hello there'.\" So, immediately after the manual trigger, I'll need a node that can modify or add data to the workflow item. The `Set` node is the perfect tool for this. It's designed specifically for setting or transforming data fields. I see in the JSON it's `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion 3.4`. This is a very common and versatile node for data manipulation.\n\nI'd drag out a Set node and then connect the \"When clicking \u2018Execute workflow\u2019\" node's `main` output to the `main` input of this new Set node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the data (even if it's just an empty item initially) flows directly into our Set node.\n\nNow, for configuring this 'Set' node, which the prompt asks to name \"Edit Fields1\". I'd go into its parameters. The prompt specifies adding a string field named `message` with the value `hello there`. So, within the Set node's \"Assignments\" section, I'd click to add a new assignment. I'd set the \"Name\" property to `message`, choose \"String\" as the \"Type\", and then enter `hello there` into the \"Value\" field. This is straightforward; the node will receive the incoming item (which at this point, from the manual trigger, is likely an empty JSON object, `{}`), and it will transform it by adding `{ \"message\": \"hello there\" }` to it.\n\nMoving on, the prompt dictates: \"Follow this with another 'Set' node named 'Repro1' that adds a string field 'test' using the expression `={{ $json.message }}`.\" So, similar to the previous step, I'll need another Set node. It's again `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion 3.4`, which is good for consistency.\n\nI'd connect the `main` output of the \"Edit Fields1\" node to the `main` input of this new Set node. This ensures that the item, which now contains `{\"message\": \"hello there\"}`, is passed along to the next processing step.\n\nFor configuring this second Set node, named \"Repro1\", I'll again add a new assignment in its parameters. The prompt says to add a string field `test`. So, \"Name\" will be `test`, and \"Type\" will be \"String\". The crucial part here is the value: `={{ $json.message }}`. This is an n8n expression. The `={{ }}` syntax tells n8n to evaluate what's inside as an expression. `$json.message` is a reference to a field on the current item. Since the previous \"Edit Fields1\" node added `message` to the item, this expression will correctly grab the value of `message` from the incoming item and assign it to the new `test` field. So, the `test` field will end up having the value `hello there`. This is a great way to demonstrate how data flows and can be referenced from previous nodes within the workflow." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"Get Weather\" that starts with an \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node.

My goal here is to build a simple workflow that responds with a fixed \"Weather is sunny\" message. Looking at the requirements and the provided JSON, it seems like a pretty straightforward two-node setup.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt specifically mentions starting with an \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node. So, I'll definitely pick that one.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nWhy this node? An `Execute Workflow Trigger` is fantastic when you want to initiate a workflow from another workflow, or perhaps via the n8n API. It basically means \"run this workflow now.\" It doesn't have internal scheduling or a webhook listener; it just waits to be told to execute. This makes it really flexible for a \"Get Weather\" workflow, as it implies it might be called by something else to retrieve the weather, rather than running on its own schedule or via an external webhook. Looking at the JSON, it's just `{\"parameters\": {}}`, which is typical for this node, as its primary purpose is simply to act as an entry point without needing specific configuration. It'll just pass along any initial data it receives, or an empty item if nothing is passed.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt says this trigger should connect to an \"Edit Fields\" node that sets a field named \"response\" to \"Weather is sunny\".\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `3.4`\n\nThe `Set` node (which is what \"Edit Fields\" refers to in n8n's terminology) is the perfect tool for this job. Its whole purpose is to manipulate data by adding, modifying, or removing fields on items that flow through it. We need to create a new field named \"response\" and give it a specific string value, and the `Set` node is exactly what you'd reach for to do that without writing any code.\n\nLet's look at how it's configured in the JSON:\n`\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"Weather is sunny\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}`\nThis configuration is spot on. We're telling the `Set` node to perform an assignment. Within that assignment list, there's one instruction:\n* Create a field named `response`.\n* Set its `value` to the string `\"Weather is sunny\"`.\n* Explicitly define the `type` as `string`. This is good practice to ensure n8n understands the data type correctly, even though in this case, a literal string value would likely be inferred correctly.\n\nThis `Set` node will take whatever item comes from the `Execute Workflow Trigger` and simply append or update a field called \"response\" with \"Weather is sunny\". If the trigger passes an empty item, the `Set` node will create an item with just that \"response\" field. If the trigger passed an item with other data, that data would remain, and the \"response\" field would be added to it.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The prompt specifies the trigger connects *to* the \"Edit Fields\" node.\nLooking at the `connections` in the JSON:\n`\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`\nThis tells me that the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node's primary output (labeled \"main\") should be connected to the primary input (also \"main\") of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This is a standard sequential flow. Data, or just the signal of execution, moves from the trigger to the `Set` node. The `Set` node then processes that data by adding our \"response\" field. This is exactly what we want for a simple, linear workflow. The `index: 0` just indicates it's the first connection to that specific input.\n\nSo, the workflow essentially says: \"When told to execute, create an item (or take the incoming item), then add a field named 'response' with the value 'Weather is sunny' to it.\" This fully satisfies the prompt's requirements. It's simple, direct, and uses the appropriate nodes for the task. I wouldn't really consider a different structure for such a straightforward task, as this is the most efficient and readable way to achieve it. A `Function` node could also set the field, but it would involve writing a small bit of JavaScript, which is overkill when a dedicated `Set` node exists." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"update shipment\" that is manually triggered.

Since the requirement is \"manually triggered,\" my mind immediately goes to the `Manual Trigger` node. This is the simplest way to kick off a workflow on demand, perfect for testing or for workflows that aren't tied to an external event or a schedule.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. Looking at the provided JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the standard and widely used version for this node. It's straightforward and doesn't require any specific parameters to get started; its purpose is simply to initiate the workflow when activated, usually by clicking \"Test workflow\" in the n8n UI. I'd name it something descriptive like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" as indicated in the JSON, which helps anyone looking at the workflow understand its starting point.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step is to make an HTTP request. This is a very common operation in automation workflows \u2013 sending data, fetching information, or interacting with external APIs. For this, the `HTTP Request` node is the go-to choice. It's incredibly versatile for making all sorts of web calls.\n\nI'll then add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`. The JSON specifies `typeVersion: 4.2` for this node. It's a fairly recent version, which generally means it includes the latest features and stability improvements. While older versions might still work, using the specified `typeVersion` ensures compatibility with the provided blueprint.\n\nNow, I need to configure this `HTTP Request` node. The prompt clearly states the request should go to `fourkits.com\/api`. So, the main parameter I'd focus on is the 'URL' field within the node's settings. I would simply input `fourkits.com\/api` directly into that URL parameter. The JSON confirms this setup with `{\"url\": \"fourkits.com\/api\", \"options\": {}}` within the node's parameters. For this particular request, there are no other complex options specified, like method (it defaults to GET, which is usually fine for a simple hit), headers, or body content, so I'd leave those as default unless further requirements emerged. If this were a POST request, for instance, I'd obviously switch the method and likely add a body.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The flow is linear: trigger first, then make the HTTP request. So, I would draw a connection from the `Manual Trigger` node's output to the `HTTP Request` node's input. The JSON confirms this connection: the `main` output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node goes to the \"HTTP Request\" node. This ensures that as soon as the manual trigger fires, control is passed directly to the HTTP Request node, executing it immediately afterward. No special data mapping is needed here as the `Manual Trigger` doesn't output anything that the `HTTP Request` node needs for its basic URL call. It's purely about flow control.\n\nThat completes the functional requirements for this workflow. It's a very simple but effective pattern for testing API endpoints or initiating actions manually." } { "prompt": "Retrieve MP4 attachments from emails in a specific Gmail label, upload them to a designated Google Drive folder, and then capture the public sharing link of the uploaded file.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get an mp4 attachment from Gmail to Google Drive\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"message\", \"operation\": \"getAll\", \"additionalFields\": {\"format\": \"resolved\", \"labelIds\": [\"Label_1819449526183990002\"]}}, \"name\": \"Gmail1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [-34.5, 449.5]}, {\"parameters\": {\"name\": \"={{$binary.attachment_0.fileName}}\", \"parents\": [\"1I-tBNWFhH2FwcyiKeBOcGseWktF-nXBr\"], \"binaryData\": true, \"resolveData\": true, \"authentication\": \"oAuth2\", \"binaryPropertyName\": \"attachment_0\"}, \"name\": \"Upload File1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDrive\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [115.5, 449.5]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"string\": [{\"name\": \"mp4_attachment\", \"value\": \"={{$json[\\\"webViewLink\\\"]}}\"}]}, \"options\": {}, \"keepOnlySet\": true}, \"name\": \"Get attachment Link\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [280, 450]}], \"connections\": {\"Gmail1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Upload File1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Upload File1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Get attachment Link\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down this workflow design step by step, as if I'm building it from scratch.\n\nThe core request is: \"Retrieve MP4 attachments from emails in a specific Gmail label, upload them to a designated Google Drive folder, and then capture the public sharing link of the uploaded file.\"\n\nFirst things first, to get emails, I'll obviously need a Gmail node. This will be my starting point for fetching the data. I'll add a `Gmail1` node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.gmail` with `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Gmail node? The prompt says \"retrieve MP4 attachments from emails in a specific Gmail label.\" This means I'm dealing with email messages, so I'll set the `resource` to `message`. Since I want to retrieve all relevant emails that fit the criteria, the `operation` should be `getAll`. Under `additionalFields`, I need to specify the label. The workflow JSON shows `labelIds: [\"Label_1819449526183990002\"]`. This is where I'd input the unique ID of the specific Gmail label I'm interested in. Crucially, to handle attachments effectively, I'll set the `format` to `resolved`. This tells the Gmail node to parse the email content and attachments in a way that makes them easily accessible as binary data in the next nodes. Of course, this node would rely on a pre-configured Gmail OAuth2 credential to authenticate with the user's Gmail account.\n\nOnce the Gmail node has fetched the emails, the next logical step is to upload those attachments to Google Drive. This immediately tells me I'll need a Google Drive node. So, I'll add an `Upload File1` node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.googleDrive` and `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nFor connecting them, it's a straightforward flow: the output of `Gmail1` needs to go into `Upload File1`. So, I'll connect the `main` output of `Gmail1` to the `main` input of `Upload File1`.\n\nNow, let's configure `Upload File1`. The operation here is clearly `upload`. The prompt also specifies \"upload them to a designated Google Drive folder.\" So, under the `parents` parameter, I'll provide the specific folder ID where these files should be stored. The JSON shows `parents: [\"1I-tBNWFhH2FwcyiKeBOcGseWktF-nXBr\"]`, which would be that folder ID. The input data from Gmail will be binary attachments, so I must enable `binaryData` to let the node know it's handling raw file data. Also, the Gmail node typically puts attachments into specific binary properties. Looking at the expression for the file name, `={{$binary.attachment_0.fileName}}`, it's clear that the first attachment is expected to be found under the binary property named `attachment_0`. So, I'll configure `binaryPropertyName` to `attachment_0`. This ensures the node picks up the correct attachment. For the `name` of the uploaded file, I want to preserve the original filename, so using `={{$binary.attachment_0.fileName}}` dynamically pulls that information from the incoming data. Finally, to get the sharing link, I need information about the uploaded file *after* it's been uploaded. So, I'll make sure `resolveData` is set to `true`; this ensures the Google Drive node outputs details about the newly created file, including its various links. Authentication, as always, would be handled by a pre-configured Google Drive OAuth2 API credential.\n\nNow, the files are uploaded. The final part of the request is to \"capture the public sharing link of the uploaded file.\" The Google Drive node, because `resolveData` was true, will output a lot of information about the uploaded file. I need to extract just that public sharing link. A `Set` node is perfect for this kind of data transformation and selection. So, I'll add a `Get attachment Link` node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nThe connection here is again straightforward: the output of `Upload File1` needs to feed into `Get attachment Link`. So, I'll connect the `main` output of `Upload File1` to the `main` input of `Get attachment Link`.\n\nConfiguring the `Get attachment Link` node: I want to create a new field that holds this specific link. I'll name this new field `mp4_attachment` as seen in the JSON. For its value, I'll use an expression to pull the public sharing link from the data provided by the Google Drive node. The JSON uses `={{$json[\\\"webViewLink\\\"]}}`. The `webViewLink` property is typically the direct, public sharing URL provided by Google Drive for a file. Lastly, I'll set `keepOnlySet` to `true`. This is a clean-up step; it ensures that only the `mp4_attachment` field I just created is passed to subsequent nodes, discarding all the other potentially voluminous data from the previous steps, keeping the workflow's output concise.\n\nAnd that completes the thought process for building this specific workflow based on the provided JSON." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

The prompt specifically asks for a manual trigger. So, I'll definitely begin by dragging out a **Trigger** node, and from the available options, the `Manual Trigger` node is the perfect fit. Looking at the JSON, this translates to a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'll place it, perhaps call it \"On clicking 'execute'\" as it is in the JSON, which clearly describes its purpose: it lets a user initiate the workflow execution directly from the n8n editor or via a specific webhook endpoint if configured for external triggering (though here it's just a manual start). Its parameters are pretty straightforward for a manual trigger; there isn't much to configure beyond its name and position.\n\nNow, following the user's request, the next step is a bit peculiar: it needs to connect to a *disabled* 'Error' code node that *contains a syntax error*. This is interesting because typically you'd want a functional node. But the explicit instruction is to include it. So, after my manual trigger, I'll draw a connection from its main output to a new node. This next node needs to be a `Code` node, which is `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.code\"` with `typeVersion: 1`. I'll name it \"Error\" as specified.\n\nThe critical part of this \"Error\" code node is its configuration. First, I need to make sure its `disabled` parameter is set to `true`. This is crucial because it has a syntax error. If it were enabled, the workflow would likely halt or throw an error during execution at this step. By disabling it, the workflow can bypass this intentionally broken node.\n\nThen, for the JavaScript code within this \"Error\" node, the prompt says it should have a syntax error. Looking at the JSON, the `jsCode` property includes a line `error` by itself. This isn't a defined variable or a valid JavaScript statement in this context, so it will indeed cause a syntax error if the node were ever to be enabled and executed. The rest of the code tries to loop over input items and add a field `myNewField`, but that `error` line makes it invalid. So, the `jsCode` will be set to:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n error\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nThis node effectively serves as a placeholder for a 'broken' step that's deliberately skipped.\n\nAlright, so the manual trigger is set up and connected to the disabled \"Error\" node. What's next? The prompt says the \"Error\" node *then connects* to a 'Code' node with valid JavaScript. Even though the \"Error\" node is disabled, n8n's connections still define the intended flow path. When a node is disabled, the workflow execution effectively \"jumps\" over it to the next connected node. So, I'll draw a connection from the output of the \"Error\" node to a new `Code` node.\n\nThis new node will also be of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.code\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'll name it \"Code\" as requested. For its JavaScript, this one needs to be *valid*. The JSON shows a simple script that's very similar to the previous one, but without the `error` line. It iterates through the input items and adds a `myNewField`. This is a common pattern in n8n's Code nodes for transforming data.\n\nSo, its `jsCode` property will be:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nThis setup means that when the manual trigger runs, it effectively passes its (empty, in this case) output to the disabled \"Error\" node, which is then skipped. The execution then immediately proceeds to this \"Code\" node, which will execute its valid JavaScript, processing any incoming data (or just returning an empty array if there was no input).\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that the workflow needs to include the tags 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'. So, I'll make sure to add these tags to the workflow's metadata. This helps with organization and searchability within the n8n interface. These tags are just strings that help categorize workflows. The JSON includes them under the `tags` array, complete with their internal IDs and timestamps, but from a design perspective, I just need to apply \"some-tag-1\" and \"some-tag-2\" to the workflow as a whole." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON named '[UDIA] Credenciales' that is inactive. It starts with a manual trigger that branches in parallel to an Airtable node (configured for 'base' resource) and an OpenAI node (using the 'gpt-4o-mini-2024-07-18' model with the message 'Hola, saluda a mis alumnos de UDIA.ES'), ensuring all standard n8n metadata and placeholder credentials are included.", "json": "{\"name\": \"[UDIA] Credenciales\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"base\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Airtable\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.airtable\", \"typeVersion\": 2.1, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"modelId\": {\"__rl\": true, \"value\": \"gpt-4o-mini-2024-07-18\", \"mode\": \"list\", \"cachedResultName\": \"GPT-4O-MINI-2024-07-18\"}, \"messages\": {\"values\": [{\"content\": \"Hola, saluda a mis alumnos de UDIA.ES\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"OpenAI\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.openAi\", \"typeVersion\": 1.8, \"position\": [220, 200]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Airtable\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}, {\"node\": \"OpenAI\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Airtable\": {\"main\": [[]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow designed. First things first, looking at the overall structure, I see this workflow is intended to be named `[UDIA] Credenciales`, which is good for organization. It's also specified as `inactive` right from the start, so I'll make sure that property is set to `false`. That means it won't run automatically until someone explicitly activates it, which is a sensible default for a new workflow under development. We'll also have all the standard metadata like creation and update timestamps, a unique ID, and so on.\n\nOkay, let's jump into the actual logic. Every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the prompt and the JSON, it specifies a manual trigger. So, I'll begin by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. This is of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is perfect because it allows the workflow to be initiated by simply clicking the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n editor, or via a test run, which aligns perfectly with the \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\" connection description. It's really useful for testing or for workflows that you only want to run on demand. No specific parameters are needed for this node, it just serves as the initial spark.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt states that the manual trigger branches *in parallel* to two different nodes: an Airtable node and an OpenAI node. This means after the manual trigger fires, it sends its execution down two separate paths simultaneously. This is efficient if the two operations don't depend on each other's results.\n\nSo, for the first branch, I'll add an **Airtable** node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.airtable` with `typeVersion 2.1`. I'd choose this node because the goal is to interact with Airtable, and this is the dedicated node for that purpose. For its configuration, the prompt specifies configuring it for 'base' resource. So, I'll set the `resource` parameter to `base`. There aren't any specific options mentioned beyond that, so I'll leave the `options` object empty for now. For credentials, this node will naturally require an Airtable API token or a personal access token. I'd set up a placeholder for an `airtableTokenApi` credential, which would typically involve linking to an existing or new credential entry that holds the actual API key. The exact ID and name of this credential will be dynamically assigned by n8n when the workflow is saved, like `7Pc6KmGRevIXrDEE` with the name \"Airtable Personal Access Token account\".\n\nFor the second parallel branch coming directly from the manual trigger, I'll add an **OpenAI** node. This node is of type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.openAi` with `typeVersion 1.8`. This is the right choice for interacting with OpenAI's API, which is what we need to do to send a message to a language model. Looking at the parameters, it needs a specific `modelId`. The prompt clearly states `gpt-4o-mini-2024-07-18`, so I'll configure that as the `modelId`. And crucially, it needs a message to send. The prompt specifies `'Hola, saluda a mis alumnos de UDIA.ES'`, so I'll add that into the `messages` array under the `content` field. Just like with Airtable, this OpenAI node will need credentials. A placeholder for an `openAiApi` credential would be linked here, pointing to where an OpenAI API key would be securely stored, such as `Z3Y1BhnJLBStJAIa` named \"OpenAi account\".\n\nNow, let's double-check the connections. The `manualTrigger` node, named \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\", should indeed have its `main` output connected to both the `Airtable` node and the `OpenAI` node. The JSON confirms this with `[[{\"node\": \"Airtable\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}, {\"node\": \"OpenAI\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]` under the `connections` for the trigger node. This confirms the parallel execution flow. The Airtable node itself doesn't connect to anything downstream in this workflow according to the JSON, nor does the OpenAI node. They are terminal nodes for their respective branches in this specific design.\n\nFinally, I'd review the `meta` object to ensure `templateCredsSetupCompleted` is `true`, indicating that the credential placeholders are correctly set up. All the `id`s for nodes and the workflow itself are automatically generated, as are timestamps like `createdAt` and `updatedAt`. The `position` values are also set to organize the nodes visually on the canvas. Things like `pinData`, `settings` for execution order, `staticData`, `tags`, and `triggerCount` are mostly backend metadata and defaults that n8n handles. This seems to complete the design based on the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named \"Mailjet:Email:send sendTemplate\".

The user wants an inactive workflow named \"Mailjet:Email:send sendTemplate\" that has a few specific branches and configurations. I'll need to think about each piece as I lay it out.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick things off. Looking at the prompt and the provided JSON, it's clear we're beginning with a simple `Start` node. So, I'd bring in a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.start` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is foundational; it doesn't really have any parameters to configure itself, but it serves as the entry point for the workflow, whether it's triggered manually or connected as a sub-workflow. It's positioned at `[250, 300]` in the workflow editor, which is a good standard starting spot.\n\nFrom this `Start` node, the prompt indicates a branching structure. One branch will handle email sending, and a separate one will deal with SMS.\n\nLet's tackle the email sending branch first. The prompt states it needs to start with a \"Mailjet\" node for sending an email template. So, the next node I'd add would be a `Mailjet` node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.mailjet` with `typeVersion 1`. I'd connect the `Start` node's main output to the input of this new `Mailjet` node. This node's purpose is to send an email using a pre-defined Mailjet template.\n\nFor its configuration, I'd set the `operation` parameter to `sendTemplate`. This tells the Mailjet node what action to perform. Then, it needs details for the email. I'd input a generic subject like \"test\" and specify generic sender and recipient email addresses, making sure not to use any real, sensitive addresses here, just placeholders. The critical part for sending a template is the `templateId`; the JSON shows a specific ID, so I'd make sure that parameter is set appropriately (e.g., to a template identifier). There are also `additionalFields` but in this case, they are left empty. For credentials, this node will require a Mailjet Email API credential, which would be pre-configured in the n8n instance and selected here. This particular node is positioned at `[480, 240]`.\n\nNow, the prompt says this first Mailjet node \"then connects to another \"Mailjet\" node for sending a basic email.\" This means the output of the template-sending Mailjet node feeds into a second Mailjet node. So, I'd drag in another `Mailjet` node, also of type `n8n-nodes-base.mailjet` and `typeVersion 1`. I would connect the output of my template-sending `Mailjet` node to the input of this new one.\n\nThis second `Mailjet` node in the email chain is for sending a *basic* email. Its parameters would reflect this: generic sender and recipient email addresses, a subject like \"test\", and a text body, again, generically set to \"test\". Just like the previous email node, this one will also use the same Mailjet Email API credential, ensuring continuity for email operations. This node is placed at `[620, 240]`, a bit further along the email branch.\n\nNext, let's consider the SMS part. The prompt specifies a \"separate, disabled \"Mailjet\" node for sending an SMS.\" This means it branches directly off the `Start` node, not after the email sending. So, I'd add another `Mailjet` node, `n8n-nodes-base.mailjet` with `typeVersion 1`, and connect its input directly to the `Start` node, creating a parallel path to the email branch.\n\nThe key configurations for this SMS node would be setting the `resource` parameter to `sms` to indicate it's an SMS operation, rather than email. It would also need parameters for a subject and text content, which are both set to \"test\" in the JSON. Crucially, this node uses different credentials; it requires a Mailjet SMS API credential, distinct from the email API credentials used in the other two Mailjet nodes. This ensures that the SMS functionality is correctly authenticated. The prompt also stated this node should be \"disabled,\" so I would make sure the `disabled` property is set to `true`. This node is positioned at `[480, 390]`, clearly separate from the email flow.\n\nFinally, I'd review the overall workflow to ensure it matches the prompt's initial requirements: its name is \"Mailjet:Email:send sendTemplate\" and, importantly, it is set to be `inactive: false`. This ensures the workflow doesn't run automatically until explicitly activated by the user.\n\nThat covers all the nodes and connections as described. The branching, the specific operations, the different credentials, and the disabled state are all in place." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow consisting of a manual trigger node connected to an unconfigured ClickUp node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"list\": \"\", \"name\": \"\", \"team\": \"\", \"space\": \"\", \"folder\": \"\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"ClickUp\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.clickUp\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"ClickUp\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this n8n workflow. The user wants a pretty straightforward setup: a manual trigger connected to an unconfigured ClickUp node. This sounds like a great starting point for someone who wants to build out a ClickUp integration but isn't sure what specific action they want to perform just yet.\n\nFirst things first, I always like to begin with the trigger. The prompt clearly states \"manual trigger node,\" and looking at the provided JSON, I see exactly what I need.\n\n* I'll add a node of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is the perfect choice because it allows the workflow to be started simply by clicking the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n interface. It's incredibly useful for testing new workflows or for scenarios where you want direct, user-initiated control over when the workflow runs, rather than it being scheduled or reacting to external events. The `parameters` for this node are an empty object, which is exactly what I'd expect for a basic manual trigger; it doesn't really need any specific configuration itself, its purpose is simply to kick things off. I'll place it at `position: [250, 300]` on the canvas to give it a good starting point visually.\n\nNow that I have the trigger in place, I need to add the ClickUp node as requested. The prompt specifically asks for an \"unconfigured ClickUp node.\"\n\n* Based on the JSON, I'll add a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.clickUp\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node is designed to interact with the ClickUp API, so it's precisely what's needed for any operations related to ClickUp, whether it's creating tasks, getting lists, or updating statuses.\n* The JSON also specifies its `position: [450, 300]`, which puts it neatly to the right of the manual trigger, indicating a clear, linear flow from trigger to action.\n* Looking at the `parameters` for this ClickUp node, I see `{\"list\": \"\", \"name\": \"\", \"team\": \"\", \"space\": \"\", \"folder\": \"\", \"additionalFields\": {}}`. These are all empty strings or an empty object. This is exactly what \"unconfigured\" means. The node is there, ready to be used, but no specific operation (like creating a task, or which list\/space to use) has been defined yet. The user would need to populate these fields later on to make the node perform a specific action within their ClickUp workspace.\n* Similarly, the `credentials` object shows `\"clickUpApi\": \"\"`. This is also part of being unconfigured. To actually connect to a user's ClickUp account and perform operations, the user would need to set up and select their ClickUp API credentials here. Without them, the node can't authenticate.\n\nFinally, I need to make sure these two nodes are connected as specified.\n\n* The `connections` object in the JSON shows `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"ClickUp\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This tells me that the `main` output of the `manualTrigger` node (which is identified by its default name \"On clicking 'execute'\") should connect to the `main` input of the `ClickUp` node. This is a standard connection type in n8n, meaning that when the manual trigger fires, it passes control and any potential data (though the manual trigger itself doesn't generate much data by default) to the ClickUp node, allowing the ClickUp node to execute its operation next in the workflow.

It needs to be an \"inactive n8n workflow named '[UDIA] Securizaci\u00f3n de webhooks'\". So, the very first thing I'd do is set the workflow's `name` property to \"[UDIA] Securizaci\u00f3n de webhooks\" and ensure its `active` status is set to `false`. These are global settings for the workflow itself, governing its general behavior.\n\nNow, for the actual functionality. The core requirement is that it \"starts with a POST webhook at `udiasecurity` secured by JWT authentication.\" This tells me I definitely need a trigger node, and specifically, it has to be a Webhook node.\n\n* I'll add a **Webhook node**, which has the type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`. Looking at the provided JSON, it's `typeVersion 2`. This node type is perfect because its sole purpose is to listen for incoming HTTP requests and trigger the workflow.\n* Once I've got the Webhook node on my canvas, I need to configure it.\n * The prompt specifies it's a \"POST webhook\", so I'll go into the node's parameters and set the `httpMethod` to `POST`.\n * Next, the path is `udiasecurity`. This will be configured in the `path` parameter. So, if the n8n instance is at `example.com`, the webhook URL would become `example.com\/webhook\/udiasecurity`.\n * A critical part of the requirement is that it's \"secured by JWT authentication\". So, in the authentication options for the Webhook node, I would select `jwtAuth`. This choice means that for the webhook to successfully trigger the workflow, the incoming request must include a valid JWT token that can be verified against a pre-configured JWT credential. The JSON confirms a credential (like \"JWT Auth account\") would be linked here. This handles the security aspect of the trigger.\n * The position in the JSON is `[0, 0]`, which is a typical starting point for the first node in a workflow canvas, usually in the top-left corner. The name of the node defaults to \"Webhook,\" which is fine.\n\nAfter setting up the trigger, I see the next requirement is purely informational: \"Additionally, include a sticky note containing the text...\". This is a non-functional element, purely for documentation and clarity within the workflow canvas.\n\n* For this, I'll add a **Sticky Note node**. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.stickyNote`, and the JSON indicates `typeVersion 1`. This node type is specifically designed for adding arbitrary text notes directly onto the workflow canvas, making it easy to document or explain parts of the workflow.\n* Configuring this node is straightforward. I'll take the entire provided text: \"Securaci\\u00f3n de Webhooks: \\n- Basic Auth\\n- Heather Auth\\n- JWT Auth (M\\u00e1s seguro y recomendado).\\n\\n* Una p\\u00e1gina para probar estos webhooks es Postman.\" and paste it directly into the `content` parameter of the Sticky Note node.\n* The JSON also specifies `height: 180` and `width: 340` for the sticky note. These dimensions are chosen to comfortably fit the text. The `position` is given as `[-80, -240]`. This means it's positioned above and slightly to the left of the Webhook node (which is at `[0,0]`). This is a very common and intuitive placement for a note that explains the trigger or the overall purpose of that section of the workflow.\n\nFinally, I'd consider the connections between the nodes. In this particular workflow, there aren't any functional connections needed. The Webhook node is a trigger that stands alone as the starting point. The Sticky Note is purely a visual annotation. It doesn't process data, nor does it receive data from or send data to any other node. Therefore, the `connections` object in the JSON is empty, which is exactly what I'd expect for this simple setup. The workflow simply receives the webhook, and the note provides context. Nothing happens *after* the webhook is received in this specific workflow definition." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers to create a WooCommerce product named 'n8n Sweatshirt' (price 30, description 'Stay warm with this sweatshirt!'), then updates its stock quantity to 100, and finally retrieves the product's details.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [220, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"name\": \"n8n Sweatshirt\", \"imagesUi\": {\"imagesValues\": []}, \"metadataUi\": {\"metadataValues\": []}, \"additionalFields\": {\"description\": \"Stay warm with this sweatshirt!\", \"regularPrice\": \"30\"}}, \"name\": \"WooCommerce\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wooCommerce\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [430, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"update\", \"productId\": \"={{$node[\\\"WooCommerce\\\"].json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\", \"updateFields\": {\"stockQuantity\": 100}}, \"name\": \"WooCommerce1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wooCommerce\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [630, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"productId\": \"={{$node[\\\"WooCommerce\\\"].json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\"}, \"name\": \"WooCommerce2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wooCommerce\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [830, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"WooCommerce\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"WooCommerce1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"WooCommerce1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"WooCommerce2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"WooCommerce\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down this n8n workflow step by step, as if I'm building it from scratch based on the user's request.\n\nFirst off, the user wants a workflow that \"manually triggers\". That immediately tells me what my starting point needs to be.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding a **Trigger** node. Given the \"manually triggers\" requirement, the most straightforward choice is the **Manual Trigger** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n* This node is perfect because it allows someone to explicitly click an \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n UI, which perfectly matches the \"manual trigger\" requirement. It doesn't need any special configuration for its parameters, just its presence. I'll give it a descriptive name like \"On clicking 'execute'\".\n\nNext, the prompt says to \"create a WooCommerce product named 'n8n Sweatshirt' (price 30, description 'Stay warm with this sweatshirt!')\". This clearly points to an integration with WooCommerce, and specifically, a creation action.\n\nSo, I'll add a **WooCommerce** node right after my manual trigger.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.wooCommerce` and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n* This node is the native n8n integration for WooCommerce, allowing various operations like creating, updating, or getting products. For this step, the operation would naturally be 'create product'.\n* For its parameters, I'll set:\n * The `name` field to \"n8n Sweatshirt\".\n * Under `additionalFields`, I'd add `description` and set it to \"Stay warm with this sweatshirt!\".\n * Also under `additionalFields`, I'd add `regularPrice` and set it to \"30\".\n* Of course, this node will need credentials to connect to a WooCommerce store. I'd select the appropriate WooCommerce API credentials that would have been previously set up in n8n. The JSON indicates `woocommerce` as the credential name.\n\nNow for the connection: The output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" manual trigger node needs to flow directly into this first WooCommerce node so that the product creation happens when the workflow is manually started. So, the `main` output of the trigger connects to the `main` input of the first WooCommerce node.\n\nThe prompt then specifies: \"then updates its stock quantity to 100\". This is an update operation on the *same* product we just created.\n\nSo, I'll add another **WooCommerce** node, this one placed after the first one.\n* Its type is also `n8n-nodes-base.wooCommerce` with `typeVersion` `1`.\n* This time, the `operation` needs to be `update product`.\n* The crucial part here is knowing *which* product to update. Since we just created it, the product's ID will be available from the output of the *previous* WooCommerce node. I'll use an expression for the `productId` parameter to dynamically pull this ID. Specifically, it would be `={{$node[\"WooCommerce\"].json[\"id\"]}}`, which tells n8n to get the `id` property from the JSON output of the node named \"WooCommerce\" (my first WooCommerce node).\n* Then, under `updateFields`, I'd set `stockQuantity` to `100`.\n* Again, the same WooCommerce API credentials would be used here to maintain context with the store.\n\nFor the connection, the stock update *must* happen after the product has been successfully created. So, the `main` output of the first WooCommerce node (the one creating the product) connects to the `main` input of this second WooCommerce node (the one updating the stock).\n\nFinally, the prompt says: \"and finally retrieves the product's details.\" This is a \"get\" operation on the product.\n\nSo, I'll add a third **WooCommerce** node, placing it after the stock update node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.wooCommerce` with `typeVersion` `1`.\n* For this node, the `operation` would be `get product`.\n* Similar to the update step, to retrieve specific details, I need to tell it which product. I'll again use an expression for the `productId` parameter, referencing the ID from the *original* product creation node: `={{$node[\"WooCommerce\"].json[\"id\"]}}`. This ensures I'm retrieving the details for the exact product I've been working with.\n* And as before, the appropriate WooCommerce API credentials would be configured.\n\nFor the final connection, I want to retrieve the details *after* both the creation and the stock update have occurred, so I get the complete, updated product information. Therefore, the `main` output of the second WooCommerce node (the one that updated the stock) connects to the `main` input of this third WooCommerce node (the one getting the details).\n\nAnd that completes the thought process for designing this workflow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers to send a Telegram message.

The request is quite clear: we need a workflow that can be triggered manually and then sends a specific message to a particular Telegram chat ID.\n\nFirst things first, to meet the requirement of a \"manually triggered\" workflow, I'll need a trigger node that allows for on-demand execution. Looking through the available options, the `manualTrigger` node is perfect for this. It's designed exactly for scenarios where you want to kick off a workflow with a simple click in the n8n interface. So, I'd add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node doesn't require any specific parameters itself; its purpose is simply to start the execution flow when activated. It will essentially generate a single empty item to pass to the next node, which is exactly what we need here as a starting point.\n\nNext, the core action is to send a Telegram message. For that, we'll obviously need a Telegram node. I'd connect the output of our `manualTrigger` node directly to the input of a new Telegram node. This `Telegram` node will be of `type: n8n-nodes-base.telegram` and, looking at the JSON, `typeVersion: 1.2` is being used, which is a common and stable version for this node.\n\nNow, let's configure this `Telegram` node. The prompt specifies two key pieces of information for the message:\n* The `chatId`: `489359810`\n* The `text` of the message: `\u0422\u0435\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0435 \u0441\u043e\u043e\u0431\u0449\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0435 \u043e\u0442 n8n `\n\nSo, within the parameters of the Telegram node, I'd set the `chatId` field to `489359810`. This tells the node exactly where to send the message.\n\nThen, for the actual content of the message, I'd populate the `text` field with `\u0422\u0435\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0435 \u0441\u043e\u043e\u0431\u0449\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0435 \u043e\u0442 n8n `. It's important to make sure the exact text, including any trailing spaces or specific characters, matches the requirement.\n\nAdditionally, for any node that interacts with an external service like Telegram, it needs credentials to authenticate itself. Here, the `Telegram` node would require Telegram API credentials to be linked. This is typically done by creating a separate credential entry in n8n and then selecting it in the node's settings. The specific credential ID and name would depend on the user's setup, but it would involve providing an API key or bot token obtained from Telegram. This is crucial for the node to be able to actually send messages on behalf of a Telegram bot.\n\nThe JSON also shows an empty `additionalFields` parameter. This means that for this particular workflow, no other advanced Telegram message options like message threading, parse modes (Markdown, HTML), disabling link previews, or custom keyboards are being used. For a simple text message, these are not required, keeping the configuration minimal and straightforward, which aligns perfectly with the basic request.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it. The `manualTrigger` starts the workflow, and then the configured `Telegram` node sends the specified message to the designated chat ID using the provided credentials. The data flow is extremely simple: the trigger initiates the process, and the Telegram node performs the action. No complex data transformation or routing is needed here." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a Langchain \"When chat message received\" trigger. Following this, add two sequential \"Set\" nodes: the first should output raw JSON containing `this_my_field_1` (string) and `this_my_field_2` (number), and the second should output raw JSON with `this_my_field_3` (string) and `this_my_field_4` (number).", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"When chat message received\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [320, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_1\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_2\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [580, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_3\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_4\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, -380]}], \"connections\": {\"When chat message received\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Node 1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow designed and built. The user wants something specific, starting with a chat trigger and then a couple of Set nodes to manipulate some data.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states it should start with a Langchain \"When chat message received\" trigger. So, that's the first node I'll reach for. I'll search for the `chatTrigger` node, and looking at the JSON, its full type is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` and it's using `typeVersion 1.1`. This is the perfect node because it's designed to listen for incoming chat messages specifically from a Langchain integration, acting as the entry point for our workflow whenever such a message comes in. It doesn't need much configuration beyond its existence; n8n handles the webhook ID (`4fb58136-3481-494a-a30f-d9e064dac186` in this case) automatically when the workflow is activated.\n\nNext up, the prompt says to add two sequential \"Set\" nodes. The first one needs to output raw JSON with `this_my_field_1` (string) and `this_my_field_2` (number). The `Set` node is incredibly versatile for manipulating data within a workflow. I'll pick the `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, which the JSON confirms is `typeVersion 3.4`.\n\nWhen I configure this first Set node (named \"Node 1\" in the provided JSON), the key here is the \"raw JSON\" requirement. This means I shouldn't just be adding new fields to the existing data; I need to completely replace whatever comes into this node with my specified JSON structure. So, I'll set its `mode` parameter to `raw`. Then, in the `jsonOutput` parameter, I'll put exactly what was requested:\n```json\n{\n \"this_my_field_1\": \"value\",\n \"this_my_field_2\": 1\n}\n```\nThis correctly defines a string field and a number field, as specified.\n\nNow, for the connection. This \"Node 1\" needs to receive the data from our trigger. So, I'll connect the \"main\" output of the \"When chat message received\" node to the \"main\" input of this new \"Node 1\" (Set node). This ensures that once a chat message is received, the workflow immediately proceeds to create this specific JSON output.\n\nMoving on to the second \"Set\" node. The prompt specifies this one should output raw JSON with `this_my_field_3` (string) and `this_my_field_4` (number). Again, another `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, `typeVersion 3.4` for consistency.\n\nSimilar to the first Set node, this one also needs to output \"raw JSON.\" This implies that it will overwrite whatever data it receives from the previous node. So, again, its `mode` parameter will be set to `raw`. And for its `jsonOutput`, I'll enter the specified structure:\n```json\n{\n \"this_my_field_3\": \"value\",\n \"this_my_field_4\": 1\n}\n```\nIt's important to note here that because both Set nodes are in \"raw\" mode, the data from \"Node 1\" (with `this_my_field_1` and `this_my_field_2`) will be entirely replaced by the data from \"Node 2\" (with `this_my_field_3` and `this_my_field_4`). If the intention was to accumulate all four fields, the second Set node would typically be in \"default\" or \"merge\" mode, but the prompt's wording (\"output raw JSON\") indicates a complete replacement, and the JSON provided confirms this interpretation.\n\nFinally, I need to connect this second Set node (named \"Node 2\" in the JSON). It comes sequentially after the first Set node, so I'll connect the \"main\" output of \"Node 1\" to the \"main\" input of this \"Node 2.\" This ensures a clear, linear flow: trigger -> first Set node (outputting fields 1 & 2) -> second Set node (outputting fields 3 & 4, overwriting the previous).\n\nThat looks like it covers all the requirements from the prompt and matches the provided workflow JSON perfectly. The workflow is now set up to trigger on a chat message, then sequentially transform the data twice, ending with an item containing `this_my_field_3` and `this_my_field_4`." } { "prompt": "Design an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, first generates random data.

The user wants a manually triggered workflow, so that's the obvious starting point.\n\nFirst, I'll need a trigger node. Looking at the prompt, it explicitly states \"when manually triggered\". So, the most fitting node for this would be the **Manual Trigger** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its typeVersion is `1`.\n* This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to initiate a workflow when a user clicks the \"Execute workflow\" button in the n8n interface. It doesn't require any specific configuration beyond simply being present in the workflow.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions \"first generates random data\". This is an interesting requirement. My immediate thought might be a Function node to generate data, or perhaps an HTTP Request to an external API that provides random data. However, looking at the provided JSON, I see a **DebugHelper** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper` and its typeVersion is `1`.\n* Now, a DebugHelper node is typically used for, well, debugging \u2013 inspecting data flow. But critically, it also has a lesser-known capability: it can *generate* random sample data when configured appropriately. In this case, I can see its `category` parameter is set to `randomData`. This is exactly how it fulfills the \"generates random data\" requirement. It's a convenient way to get test data without needing to write custom code or hit an external service, making the workflow self-contained for demonstration or testing.\n* I'll connect the `When clicking 'Execute workflow'` node's `main` output to the `DebugHelper` node's `main` input. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the very next step is to generate this random data.\n\nFollowing the data generation, the prompt states: \"It then filters this data, passing only items where the 'email' field contains a period\". This clearly calls for a filtering mechanism.\n* The most suitable node for this is the **Filter** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.filter` and its typeVersion is `2`.\n* The Filter node is specifically designed to inspect incoming items and allow only those that meet certain criteria to pass through to the next node.\n* Looking at its configuration, it uses a condition: `leftValue` is set to `={{ $json.email }}`. This indicates that it's evaluating the `email` field within each item received from the previous node (the DebugHelper). The `rightValue` is `.` (a period), and the `operator` is `contains`. This configuration precisely matches the requirement: \"email' field contains a period\". So, any item where the generated random data includes an `email` field that has a period in it will be allowed to proceed. Other items will be discarded by this node.\n* I'll connect the `DebugHelper` node's `main` output to the `Filter` node's `main` input. This way, the random data generated is immediately fed into the filter.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies \"before sending these filtered items to Telegram\". This is pretty straightforward; I'll need a Telegram node.\n* The node for this is the **Telegram** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.telegram` and its typeVersion is `1.1`.\n* This node is perfect for interacting with the Telegram Bot API to send messages.\n* Its parameters show `chatId` and `text` are configured. A `chatId` would be a specific Telegram chat or user ID where the messages should be sent. The `text` field would contain the message content itself. In a real scenario, this `text` would likely be an expression dynamically building a message from the filtered data (e.g., `={{ $json.email }}` or other relevant fields from the random data). For security, I can see the exact values are generic placeholders, which is good practice for sharing workflow structures. An actual `chatId` and the specific message content would be provided by the user running the workflow.\n* The `Filter` node's `main` output will connect to the `Telegram` node's `main` input. This ensures that only the data items that successfully passed the email-contains-period filter are then sent as messages to Telegram." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON configuration for an automation that, when a webhook at `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/UnderstandingAutomationAgents` is triggered, retrieves content from a specific Google Doc and responds with that document's content.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFile Understanding Automation Agents\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/UnderstandingAutomationAgents\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1VGGHDQ2_E81sUMF_x7XQx6ojwtTISOMCU7o-76wuR9c\/view\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this automation workflow step-by-step. The goal is clear: trigger on a specific webhook path, retrieve content from a Google Doc, and then send that content back as the response.\n\nFirst things first, an automation always needs a trigger. The prompt explicitly states, \"when a webhook at `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/UnderstandingAutomationAgents` is triggered.\" This immediately tells me I need a **Webhook** node. So, I'll begin by adding a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion 2`. This is the perfect starting point because it's designed to listen for incoming HTTP requests and initiate the workflow.\n\nWhen configuring this Webhook node, the most critical parameter is the `path`. The prompt specifies `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/UnderstandingAutomationAgents`, so I'd set that precisely. This ensures the workflow only triggers when a request hits this exact endpoint. Another important setting for this scenario is the `responseMode`. Since we're not just immediately responding with a static message, but rather fetching content *after* the trigger and *then* responding, I'll set `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node that a later node in the workflow will handle sending the actual HTTP response back to the caller. If I didn't set this, the webhook might try to respond immediately, before we've had a chance to get the Google Doc content.\n\nOnce the webhook triggers, the next logical step is to get the content from the Google Doc. For this, I'll need a **Google Docs** node. This node is specifically designed to interact with Google Docs, whether it's reading, writing, or updating documents. I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion 2`. I'll connect this node directly to the \"Webhook\" node's \"main\" output, so that when the webhook successfully receives a call, it passes execution to the Google Docs node.\n\nWithin the Google Docs node's parameters, the `operation` is crucial. The requirement is to \"retrieve content,\" so I'll select the `get` operation. This is precisely what's needed to read a document. Then, I'll need to specify which document to retrieve. There would be a `documentURL` field where the specific Google Doc's URL would be configured. Of course, to access any Google service, proper authentication is needed. The node would require credentials, likely an OAuth2 API credential for Google Docs, which would be set up separately to ensure secure access to the user's Google Drive and Docs.\n\nFinally, after successfully retrieving the document's content, the prompt states we need to \"respond with that document's content.\" This is where the **Respond to Webhook** node comes in. Since the initial Webhook node was configured with `responseMode: responseNode`, this is the dedicated node to send the final response back to the original caller. I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion 1.1`. This node will connect from the \"Google Docs\" node's \"main\" output, ensuring that the response is only sent once the Google Docs node has finished its operation and provided the content.\n\nConfiguring the \"Respond to Webhook\" node is straightforward. I need to decide how to respond. The simplest way to return the document's content is as plain text, so I'll set `respondWith` to `text`. For the `responseBody`, this is where I'll dynamically inject the content retrieved from the Google Docs node. The Google Docs node, when performing a 'get' operation, typically outputs the document's full text content in a field like `content`. So, I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` to reference that data. This ensures that whatever text the Google Docs node pulled from the document is what gets sent back as the webhook response.\n\nAnd that completes the flow!

The user wants something that kicks off when a webhook receives data, and then it needs to push some of that data into PostHog.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way for the workflow to *start*. The prompt is very clear: it \"triggers with a webhook\". So, my immediate thought is, \"I definitely need a Webhook node for this.\" It's the standard way to expose an endpoint that external systems can call to initiate a workflow.\n\nSo, I'll go ahead and add a **Webhook** node. Its type would be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and in this case, the `typeVersion` is 1. This node is perfect because it generates a unique URL, and whenever that URL is hit, the workflow will execute.\n\nWhen configuring this Webhook node, the most important part is its `path`. This is essentially the unique part of the URL where the webhook will listen. The JSON shows a specific ID, like `f6d0071e-3cf9-49fd-8bbd-afdbea6b0c67`. While I wouldn't know the exact ID beforehand, I'd know that a unique identifier would be automatically generated or manually set here to make the webhook address distinct. The `options` parameter is empty, which means no special configurations like response modes or authentication are needed for this specific setup, keeping it simple.\n\nNext, the prompt says, \"Send the incoming data to a PostHog node.\" This tells me what the *next* action should be, and also the specific type of node I'll need. So, after the Webhook captures the data, I need a node that can talk to PostHog.\n\nI'll add a **PostHog** node. The type for this would be `n8n-nodes-base.postHog`, and its `typeVersion` is also 1. This node is designed specifically for interacting with the PostHog API, making it ideal for sending events.\n\nNow, how do I connect these? The Webhook node will output the data it receives \u2013 all the query parameters, headers, and body. I need to feed that directly into the PostHog node so PostHog can use that information. So, I'll draw a connection from the Webhook's `main` output to the PostHog node's `main` input. This ensures that whatever data comes into the webhook is immediately available to the PostHog node for processing.\n\nLet's think about the configuration of the PostHog node, as this is where the specific requirements from the prompt come in.\n\nThe prompt states two key things for the PostHog node:\n1. \"using the webhook's `query.event` as the PostHog event name\"\n2. \"'n8n' as the distinct ID\"\n\nFor the `eventName` parameter in the PostHog node, I need to dynamically pull data from the webhook. The data from the webhook will be available in the `$json` variable. Specifically, it's looking for `query.event`. So, I'd use an expression like `={{$json[\"query\"][\"event\"]}}`. This tells n8n to look at the incoming JSON data (from the Webhook), then specifically access the `query` object within that JSON, and finally grab the value associated with the `event` key. This is perfect for making the event name dynamic based on what the webhook receives.\n\nFor the `distinctId` parameter, the prompt specifies a static value: `'n8n'`. This is straightforward; I'll just input \"n8n\" directly into that field. No fancy expressions needed here.\n\nThe `additionalFields` parameter is empty in the JSON, which means we're not sending any extra properties beyond the event name and distinct ID, which aligns with the prompt's simplicity.\n\nFinally, the PostHog node needs to authenticate with PostHog. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"postHogApi\": \"PostHog Credentials\"}`. This indicates that a set of PostHog API credentials would need to be configured in n8n's credential store. I wouldn't specify the actual API key or project ID here, but I'd know that this is where the connection to the user's PostHog instance would be established. It's a standard practice for nodes that interact with external services.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it. The Webhook catches the trigger, passes the data, and the PostHog node uses that data to send an event with the specified dynamic event name and static distinct ID. It's a very direct and efficient flow for this specific requirement." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a 'Taiga Trigger' node configured for `projectId` 385605, using `webhookId` `53939c3e-7dc6-4fdf-94d8-d29f92f8fa12`, and the 'taiga' credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"projectId\": 385605}, \"name\": \"Taiga Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.taigaTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [690, 260]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is pretty clear: we need a Taiga Trigger, and it needs specific configurations.\n\nFirst things first, when I think about a workflow that needs to react to external events, especially from a specific service like Taiga, my mind immediately goes to a \"Trigger\" node. That's always the starting point for event-driven workflows. Looking at the prompt, it explicitly mentions a \"Taiga Trigger\" node. So, that's exactly what I'll grab.\n\nI'm going to add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.taigaTrigger`. This node type is purpose-built for integrating with Taiga and listening for events. It's designed to receive webhooks from Taiga, which is exactly what we need for a reactive workflow. The `typeVersion` specified in the JSON is `1`, so I'll ensure I'm using that particular version of the node. Different versions might have slight variations in parameters or functionality, but for now, sticking to version 1 is key.\n\nNow, let's configure this \"Taiga Trigger\" node based on the provided JSON.\n\n* The `name` of the node is \"Taiga Trigger\". That's a good, clear name that immediately tells me what this node does within the workflow.\n\n* Next up, the `webhookId`. The JSON provides a specific `webhookId`: `53939c3e-7dc6-4fdf-94d8-d29f92f8fa12`. This is crucial. When Taiga sends an event to n8n, this `webhookId` is part of the URL, allowing n8n to correctly route the incoming webhook to *this specific workflow instance*. It uniquely identifies the listener.\n\n* Then there are the `parameters`. The JSON specifies `{\"projectId\": 385605}`. This is really important for filtering. Taiga can send events for various projects. By setting `projectId` to `385605`, this \"Taiga Trigger\" node will only listen for and process events that originate from Taiga project with ID 385605. If we didn't specify this, it might trigger for any project that the linked credentials have access to, which is usually not the desired behavior. We want to be very specific about which project's events we're reacting to.\n\n* Finally, the `credentials`. The JSON indicates `{\"taigaCloudApi\": \"taiga\"}`. This tells the node which pre-configured Taiga API credentials to use. These credentials would typically contain an API key or authentication token that allows n8n to securely interact with the Taiga instance, perhaps to verify the incoming webhook or fetch additional details if needed. The actual value `taiga` here refers to a named credential entry that would have been set up in n8n previously.\n\nLooking at the `connections` object in the JSON, it's empty. This means that this workflow, as described, consists solely of this trigger node. There are no subsequent nodes to process the data received from Taiga. If there were, say, a node to send a Slack message or update a database, I'd connect an arrow from this \"Taiga Trigger\" to that next node, and that node would receive the event data from Taiga to act upon. But for this specific requirement, it's just the trigger.\n\nSo, to summarize, this workflow is designed to simply wait for and receive events from Taiga, specifically for project ID 385605, using a designated webhook ID and pre-configured Taiga credentials. It's a very straightforward setup for initiating a workflow based on Taiga activity." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that uses the Firecrawl API to scrape a URL.

For this, a `Set` node is really straightforward and perfect. It lets us simply define key-value pairs that will become part of the data passed through the workflow.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion 1`. I'd name it something descriptive, like \"Select Firecrawl Tool\" because that's exactly what it's doing. Within its parameters, under the `Values` section, I'd add two string fields. One would be named `tool` and its value would be `firecrawl_scrape`, as per the requirements. The other would be named `url`, and its value would be the target URL, for example, `https:\/\/example.com`. This node ensures that our desired tool and target URL are available in the workflow's data stream from the get-go.\n\nNow that we have the raw `tool` and `url` values, the Firecrawl API's `\/tools\/execute` endpoint expects a very specific JSON structure. It's not just a flat list of arguments; it needs a `tool` field at the top level and then an `arguments` object containing the specific parameters for that tool, like the `url`. The data coming out of the `Set` node will be flat, something like `{\"tool\": \"firecrawl_scrape\", \"url\": \"https:\/\/example.com\"}`. We need to transform this into `{\"tool\": \"firecrawl_scrape\", \"arguments\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/example.com\"}}`.\n\nTo perform this kind of custom data restructuring, a `Function` node is incredibly versatile. It allows us to write a little JavaScript to manipulate the incoming data exactly how we need it. So, my next step would be to add a `Function` node of type `n8n-nodes-base.function` with `typeVersion 1`. I'd name it \"Build Firecrawl Payload.\"\n\nI would then connect the \"Select Firecrawl Tool\" node's main output to the input of this new \"Build Firecrawl Payload\" node. Inside the `Function` node's code editor, I'd write a script that iterates over the incoming items (though in this case, there will likely only be one) and reconstructs the `json` property of each item to match the required Firecrawl API payload. The code would look something like this:\n\n```javascript\nreturn items.map(item => {\n return {\n json: {\n tool: item.json.tool,\n arguments: {\n url: item.json.url\n }\n }\n };\n});\n```\n\nThis script explicitly takes the `tool` from the incoming `item.json.tool` and the `url` from `item.json.url`, nesting the `url` under an `arguments` object, which is exactly what we need for the API.\n\nFinally, with the data correctly formatted, we need to send it to the Firecrawl API. For any external API call, the `HTTP Request` node is the standard and most powerful option in n8n.\n\nSo, I'd add an `HTTP Request` node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` and `typeVersion 1`. I'd name it \"Execute Firecrawl.\"\n\nI would connect the main output of the \"Build Firecrawl Payload\" node to the input of this \"Execute Firecrawl\" node. Now, let's configure its parameters.\n\n* The `URL` field would be set to `https:\/\/api.firecrawl.dev\/tools\/execute`, as specified.\n* The `Method` would be `POST`, because we're sending data to execute a tool.\n* Crucially, since we're sending a JSON body, I'd enable `JSON Parameters`. This tells the node to send the body as `application\/json`.\n* For the `Body Parameters (JSON)` field, instead of manually typing the JSON, I can reference the data that's coming into this node from the previous `Function` node. Since the `Function` node has already structured the data into the exact `{\"tool\": ..., \"arguments\": {...}}` format under `item.json`, I can simply reference `$json` directly. However, the JSON also shows a specific structure for `bodyParametersJson`, which implies referencing the `tool` and `arguments` fields directly from the `$json` object: `=\"{\\n \\\"tool\\\": $json.tool,\\n \\\"arguments\\\": $json.arguments\\n}\"`. This is a slightly more explicit way to construct the final JSON body, pulling the pre-prepared `tool` and `arguments` objects from the incoming data. This works perfectly because our `Function` node already set up `$json.tool` and `$json.arguments` for us.\n\nThat pretty much completes the workflow. We've set the initial parameters, transformed them into the correct payload format, and then sent that payload via a POST request to the Firecrawl API endpoint." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger. It should then make a GET request to `https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users`, followed by a POST request to the same URL with a name 'Neo' and job 'Programmer', and finally a PATCH request to `https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users\/2` updating the job to 'The Chosen One'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [290, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [540, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users\", \"options\": {}, \"requestMethod\": \"POST\", \"bodyParametersUi\": {\"parameter\": [{\"name\": \"name\", \"value\": \"Neo\"}, {\"name\": \"job\", \"value\": \"Programmer\"}]}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [790, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users\/2\", \"options\": {}, \"requestMethod\": \"PATCH\", \"bodyParametersUi\": {\"parameter\": [{\"name\": \"job\", \"value\": \"The Chosen One\"}]}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1050, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"HTTP Request1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt asks for a sequence of API calls, starting with a manual trigger, then a GET, a POST, and finally a PATCH request.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a way to start. Looking at the requirements, it mentions a \"manual trigger\". So, the most logical initial node would be a manual trigger. I'd add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This is perfect because it allows someone to explicitly click a button in the n8n UI to kick off the execution, which aligns perfectly with the \"starts with a manual trigger\" requirement. There aren't any specific parameters to configure for a basic manual trigger; its job is simply to provide a starting point for the workflow.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step is to make a GET request to `https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users`. For any kind of external web request, an HTTP Request node is the go-to. So, I'd bring in an `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` node. Given the JSON, it's `typeVersion 1`. I'd connect the `manualTrigger` node's output to this new HTTP Request node's input. This means that as soon as the manual trigger fires, it will pass control to this HTTP Request node. For configuration, I'd set the URL to `https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users`. By default, this node performs a GET request if no specific method is chosen, which is exactly what's needed here for the initial request. No body or authentication is required for a simple public GET like this.\n\nAfter successfully getting data from the first API endpoint, the workflow needs to perform a POST request to the *same* URL, but with specific data: a name 'Neo' and job 'Programmer'. So, naturally, the next step is another HTTP Request node. I'll add another `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` also with `typeVersion 1`. This node should be connected to the output of the *previous* HTTP Request node. This ensures that the GET request completes before we attempt to post new data. For this new HTTP Request node, the URL will again be `https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users`. However, this time, the `requestMethod` needs to be explicitly set to 'POST'. Crucially, for a POST request, we need to send data in the body. So, I'd go into the 'Body Parameters' section and add two parameters: one with the name `name` and value `Neo`, and another with the name `job` and value `Programmer`. This will construct the necessary payload for the POST operation.\n\nFinally, the prompt states we need a PATCH request to `https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users\/2` to update the job to 'The Chosen One'. Following the pattern, yet another HTTP Request node is necessary. I'll add a third `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` node, again `typeVersion 1`, and connect it to the output of the *POST* HTTP Request node. This sets up a clear sequential flow: GET, then POST, then PATCH. For this final request, the URL will be `https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users\/2`, specifically targeting a user with ID 2. The `requestMethod` will be set to 'PATCH'. Similar to the POST request, a PATCH request also needs a body, but it's specifically for the fields we want to update. So, I'd configure the body parameters to include just one entry: `job` with the value `The Chosen One`. This will send the instruction to the API to modify only that particular field for the specified user. And that pretty much completes the entire sequence as described." } { "prompt": "Create an active n8n workflow named \"Set Up Import - GET\" that triggers via a webhook at `\/GetOnboardingHooks`.

So, I'll set the `path` parameter to \"GetOnboardingHooks\".\n* Since the workflow needs to *respond* to this webhook with specific data later on, I'll set the `responseMode` to \"responseNode\". This means the Webhook node itself won't send an immediate response; instead, a dedicated \"Respond to Webhook\" node further down the line will handle it. This gives me more control over what and when the response is sent.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow needs to \"read data from the 'Onboarding' sheet in the 'Mega Database' Google Sheet.\" This immediately tells me I need a Google Sheets node.\n\n* I'll connect the output of my \"Webhook\" node to this new node. So, after the webhook receives a request, the workflow will proceed to read from the sheet.\n* I'd choose a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets` with `typeVersion 4.5`. This node is specifically designed for interacting with Google Sheets, allowing me to read, write, or update data.\n* For its parameters, I'll need to specify which document and sheet to read from.\n * The `documentId` would be configured to point to the \"Mega Database\" Google Sheet. This is where you'd typically paste a document URL or select it from a list if it's already configured.\n * Then, I'd set the `sheetName` to \"Onboarding,\" as specified. Again, this would be selected or entered based on the actual sheet name within the document.\n* Of course, this node will require credentials to access Google Sheets. I'd make sure a Google Sheets OAuth2 API credential is provided for authentication. The workflow JSON indicates a specific credential ID is in use, which would have been set up beforehand.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that the workflow needs to \"respond to the webhook with a JSON object containing 'ImportSettingsWebhookGet' and 'ExportSettingsWebhookPost' values.\" This is where the `Respond to Webhook` node comes in, as indicated by the earlier `responseMode` setting on the initial Webhook node.\n\n* I'll connect the output of the \"Google Sheets\" node to this new node. This ensures that the data read from the Google Sheet is available to formulate the response.\n* I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion 1.1`. This node is specifically for sending a response back to the webhook that triggered the workflow, which is exactly what we need.\n* For its configuration, I'll set the `respondWith` parameter to \"json\" because the prompt specifies a JSON object response.\n* The `responseBody` is crucial here. It needs to contain `\"ImportSettingsWebhookGet\"` and `\"ExportSettingsWebhookPost\"`. Since these values are expected to come from the data read by the \"Google Sheets\" node, I'll use expressions to dynamically insert them. So, the body would look something like:\n ```json\n {\n \"ImportSettingsWebhookGet\": \"{{ $json.ImportSettingsWebhookGet }}\",\n \"ExportSettingsWebhookPost\": \"{{ $json.ExportSettingsWebhookPost }}\"\n }\n ```\n This assumes that the \"Google Sheets\" node outputs these values as properties of its JSON output, which is standard behavior when reading rows where column headers match these names. The `{{ $json.propertyName }}` syntax tells n8n to grab the value of that property from the incoming JSON data (which, in this case, would be the output of the Google Sheets node).\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it for the entire workflow based on the requirements and the provided JSON structure.

This ensures the workflow execution flows correctly after the webhook is received.\n* For its configuration, the primary action I need is to \"retrieve content.\" So, I'd set the `operation` parameter to `get`.\n* The prompt provides a specific Google Doc URL: `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/126QWYw77fJzaRUlUK3_ez-6ubRdfDSnFbs0rCsmMoWc\/edit?tab=t.0`. This URL will be configured in the `documentURL` parameter of the Google Docs node.\n* Of course, to access Google Docs, this node will require authentication. A Google Docs OAuth2 API credential would be configured here, linking the workflow to the necessary Google account with access to the document. The exact credential setup would depend on the user's n8n instance.\n\nFinally, after successfully retrieving the document content, I need to send it back to the client that initiated the webhook call.\n\n* Since I set the initial Webhook node's `responseMode` to `responseNode`, I now need to use a **Respond to Webhook** node. This node is specifically for sending an HTTP response back to a waiting webhook trigger. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion 1.1`.\n* This node should connect from the `main` output of the Google Docs node. This ensures that the response is only sent *after* the Google Docs node has finished fetching the content.\n* The prompt states \"respond... with the fetched document's content as plain text.\" This means I need to configure this node carefully.\n* First, I'd set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`, as requested. This ensures the response's `Content-Type` header is set appropriately for plain text.\n* Then, for the `responseBody`, I need to reference the actual content returned by the Google Docs node. The Google Docs node typically outputs the document content in a field like `content` within its JSON output. So, I would use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` to dynamically pull that content into the response body. This `$json` refers to the data received from the previous node, which in this case is the Google Docs node.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The workflow starts with the webhook, fetches the document, and then sends the document content back, completing the request-response cycle." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named \"Twilio Test\" that begins with a Twilio Trigger node.

I'll reach for a trigger node that allows me to kick off the workflow whenever I need to, perfect for testing and ad-hoc runs.\n\nSo, I'm going to add the **Manual Trigger** node.\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **TypeVersion**: `1`\n* **Reasoning**: This node is ideal because it fulfills the requirement of a manual start. It doesn't need to listen for external events or operate on a schedule, which simplifies initial setup and testing. It's essentially a button I can press to run the workflow. Its default name \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" even tells me exactly what it does.\n\nNow that I have my starting point, the prompt says, \"It should then use a 'Set' node to add a field `message` with the value 'hello there'.\" This tells me what comes next: I need a node that can manipulate the data flowing through the workflow, specifically to add new fields. The `Set` node is perfect for this kind of data transformation.\n\nSo, I'll connect from my `Manual Trigger` node and add the first **Set** node.\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **TypeVersion**: `3.4`\n* **Connection**: This node will receive its input from the `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` node. When the manual trigger runs, it will pass an empty JSON object (or whatever default item it generates) to this `Set` node.\n* **Configuration**: Inside this `Set` node, I need to configure an \"assignment\" to add the specified field.\n * I'll add a new assignment.\n * The `Name` of the field needs to be `message`.\n * The `Value` for this `message` field should be the literal string `hello there`.\n * The `Type` for this value will be `string`, as it's a simple text value.\n* **Reasoning**: The `Set` node is incredibly versatile for adding, modifying, or removing fields from the items flowing through the workflow. This configuration directly implements the requirement to add `message` with \"hello there\" to the data.\n\nNext up, the prompt specifies, \"followed by another 'Set' node that adds a field `test` whose value is set to `{{ $json.message }}`.\" This means I'll need another `Set` node, and its input will depend on the output of the previous `Set` node.\n\nI'll connect from the first `Set` node and add the second **Set** node.\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **TypeVersion**: `3.4`\n* **Connection**: This node will receive its input from the `main` output of the *previous* `Set` node (\"Edit Fields1\"). This is crucial because it means the data item arriving at this second `Set` node will *already contain* the `message` field that was added by the first `Set` node.\n* **Configuration**: Similar to the previous `Set` node, I'll configure an assignment here.\n * I'll add a new assignment.\n * The `Name` of the new field needs to be `test`.\n * Now, for the `Value`, this is where it gets interesting. The prompt says `{{ $json.message }}`. This is an n8n expression. The `={{ ... }}` syntax tells n8n to evaluate what's inside the curly braces. `$json.message` specifically references the value of the `message` field from the incoming JSON data item. Since the previous `Set` node added `message` with \"hello there\", this expression will resolve to \"hello there\".\n * The `Type` for this value will also be `string`, as the expression resolves to a string.\n* **Reasoning**: This second `Set` node is perfect for demonstrating how data propagates through the workflow. By referencing `$json.message`, it's dynamically taking the value created in the prior step. If I had tried to do this in the first `Set` node with `{{ $json.message }}`, it wouldn't have worked, because `message` wouldn't exist in the input yet.

The user prompt is quite clear: \"Create a workflow that starts with a manual trigger named 'On clicking 'execute'', then connects to a 'Set' node, and finally to a 'Set1' node.\" This gives us a direct path to follow.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick things off. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger named 'On clicking 'execute''\". So, my first thought is to find a node that allows for manual execution. Looking at the available n8n nodes, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node is the perfect fit for this. Its purpose is literally to start a workflow when someone manually clicks an \"execute\" button within the n8n interface. I'd add this node and make sure its name is set to \"On clicking 'execute'\" as requested. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the standard and current version for this node type, so no special considerations there. This node typically doesn't require any specific parameters to be configured beyond its name, as its primary function is just to be triggered. The `pinData` clearly shows `start: true` for this node, confirming it's indeed the entry point of our workflow.\n\nNext, the prompt states it \"then connects to a 'Set' node\". So, once our manual trigger fires, the data (or lack thereof, as a manual trigger often just initiates the flow without specific data) needs to pass to the next step. A 'Set' node is often used to add, modify, or remove data fields on the incoming items. While the prompt doesn't specify *what* data to set, the existence of two 'Set' nodes suggests they might be used to define or transform data as it moves through the workflow. For now, I'll assume its purpose is to introduce or manipulate some general data. So, I'd add an `n8n-nodes-base.set` node. Its `typeVersion` is also `1`, which is common and stable. I'll name it \"Set\" as per the requirement. The critical part here is connecting it from our trigger. I'd drag a connection from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's output to the \"Set\" node's input. The JSON confirms this connection: `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This means the primary output of the trigger connects to the primary input of the \"Set\" node. As for its parameters, the provided JSON shows `parameters: {\"options\": {}}`, meaning no specific data fields are being set by default in this particular configuration, but it's ready to be configured if needed later to add values or expressions.\n\nFinally, the prompt says the workflow \"finally to a 'Set1' node.\" This implies another 'Set' node, similar to the previous one, but with a distinct name. I'd add another `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, again with `typeVersion 1`, and name it \"Set1\". This node will logically follow our first 'Set' node. So, I'll connect the output of the \"Set\" node to the input of the \"Set1\" node. The JSON verifies this connection too: `\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This maintains the sequential flow: Trigger -> Set -> Set1. Like the previous 'Set' node, its parameters are also empty, indicating no specific data operations are configured right now. It's essentially a placeholder or a step where data *could* be further processed or defined.\n\nSo, to recap the flow: manual execution starts everything, then control (and potentially data) passes to the \"Set\" node, and from there, it moves to the \"Set1\" node. It's a straightforward linear workflow, exactly as described. The choice of `set` nodes without specific data configuration just means they act as pass-through or potential future data manipulation points. If the prompt had asked to set specific values, like \"set a variable named 'status' to 'started'\", then I would have configured those parameters. But since it didn't, the empty parameters are appropriate for this design." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a Schedule Trigger node (A), followed by a Set node (B) with an empty assignment, and then another default Set node (C).", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"A\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"3d8f0810-84f0-41ce-a81b-0e7f04fd88cb\", \"name\": \"\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"B\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"C\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"A\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"B\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"B\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"C\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so I need to put together an n8n workflow based on this prompt. The user wants something fairly straightforward: a scheduled start, followed by two Set nodes. Let's break this down.\n\nFirst off, every workflow needs a trigger, something to kick it off. The prompt specifically asks for a \"Schedule Trigger node (A)\". Looking at the JSON, I see `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` with `typeVersion 1.2` for node \"A\". This is perfect. A Schedule Trigger is designed to run at specific intervals, which is exactly what \"schedule\" implies.\n\nSo, I'd start by dragging out a Schedule Trigger node onto the canvas. Its purpose is clear: to initiate the workflow at predetermined times.\nFor its configuration, the JSON shows `{\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}}`. This indicates a very basic, unconfigured schedule. Typically, with a `typeVersion 1.2` Schedule Trigger, you'd set things like \"Every Day,\" \"Every Hour,\" or a more custom CRON expression to define when it should run. Since the `interval` array is empty, it means no specific interval has been set yet, or it defaults to some basic setting like \"once on workflow activation\" or an extremely minimal interval. For now, it\u2019s just there to provide the initial pulse to the workflow. I'll name it \"A\" as per the prompt.\n\nNow that I have my trigger set up, I need to figure out what comes next. The prompt says, \"followed by a Set node (B) with an empty assignment.\" This immediately tells me I need a Set node. The JSON confirms this with node \"B\" being of `type \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` and `typeVersion 3.4`.\n\nI'll connect the output of my Schedule Trigger node \"A\" to the input of this new Set node \"B\". The connection type would be `main`, signifying a standard data flow path.\nA Set node is used to add, modify, or remove data fields on items as they pass through the workflow. It's incredibly versatile for shaping your data.\nFor node \"B\", the JSON specifies `{\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"3d8f0810-84f0-41ce-a81b-0e7f04fd88cb\", \"name\": \"\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}}`. This is interesting. It defines an assignment, but the `name` and `value` fields are both empty strings, and the `type` is `string`. This means someone explicitly added a new field but left it completely blank. It\u2019s essentially a no-op in terms of adding data, but it does exist as an assignment rule. It could be a placeholder for future development, or perhaps it's just to demonstrate that a Set node *can* have an assignment, even an empty one. Given the prompt's specific phrasing \"with an empty assignment,\" this configuration matches perfectly. I'll call this node \"B\".\n\nFinally, the prompt states, \"and then another default Set node (C).\" So, another Set node it is! The JSON confirms node \"C\" is also of `type \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` with `typeVersion 3.4`, just like node \"B\".\n\nI'll take the output from Set node \"B\" and connect it to the input of this new Set node \"C\", again using a `main` connection.\nFor node \"C\", the JSON shows `{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}}`. Notice how there's no `assignments` array here, unlike node \"B\". This is what a \"default\" Set node looks like when you first drag it onto the canvas before you've configured any specific fields to set. It essentially passes data through without modification. It's useful as a placeholder, or if you simply need to route data without changing it, maybe for visual clarity or as a temporary step in a workflow design. It's a clean pass-through. I'll label this node \"C\".\n\nAnd that completes the requested workflow: A Schedule Trigger, connecting to a Set node with an explicit empty assignment, which then connects to another default, empty Set node.

My goal is to create a workflow that starts manually, grabs customer data, and then just gives me a total count of those customers.\n\nFirst off, I need a way to kick this whole thing off manually. The prompt specifically asks for a \"Manual Trigger.\" So, naturally, I'll start by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, it's `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This is perfect because it allows me to execute the workflow whenever I click the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n editor or via an API call specifically for manual triggers. It doesn't need any special configurations for a simple start, so its `parameters` will be empty, which aligns with the JSON. This will be the very first node in my workflow, sitting there waiting to be triggered.\n\nNext, the prompt says I need to \"retrieve all people from the 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)'\". This tells me exactly which node type I need to use. I'll connect this directly to the output of my Manual Trigger, so as soon as the workflow starts, it goes straight to fetching the data. The JSON confirms this connection.\n\nSo, I'll add the **Customer Datastore (n8n training)** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`, and `typeVersion 1` is specified, which is the current one I'd use. For its parameters, the crucial part is the `operation`. To retrieve *all* people, I'll set the `operation` to `\"getAllPeople\"`. This configuration directly matches the prompt's requirement and ensures I get a complete list of customers. This node will take the initial trigger event and, essentially, transform it into a collection of all customer records.\n\nNow that I have all the customer data, the prompt states I need to \"count the total number of items retrieved, storing it as 'itemCount' while keeping only this set value and executing once.\" This immediately tells me I need a **Set** node. The Set node is perfect for creating custom data fields and manipulating the data that passes through it. I'll connect the output of my \"Customer Datastore\" node to the input of this Set node. The JSON confirms this connection too.\n\nSo, for this **Set** node, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and `typeVersion 1` is what I'm using. Let's think about its parameters.\n* I need to create a new value named `itemCount`. This value should be a number.\n* The value itself needs to be the count of the items that came from the previous node. n8n's expressions are ideal for this. The expression `{{ $input.all().length }}` is exactly what I need. `$input.all()` gathers all incoming items from the previous node, and `.length` then counts them. This will give me a single number representing the total customer count. I'll put this under the `values` parameter, specifying it as a `number` type.\n* The prompt also says \"keeping only this set value.\" This is important because I don't want the raw customer data to pass through; I just want the count. So, I'll set the `keepOnlySet` option to `true`. This cleans up the data output, ensuring only `itemCount` is present.\n* Finally, it specifies \"executing once.\" This is critical for counting. If the previous node outputted 100 customer records, I don't want the Set node to execute 100 times, creating 100 `itemCount` values (each likely being `1` if not careful with the expression). I want it to execute *once* after all items have been gathered and count them all together. So, I'll set `executeOnce` to `true`.\n\nAnd that should complete the workflow. The manual trigger starts it, the datastore retrieves everything, and the Set node then calculates and outputs just the total count, exactly as requested." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

It also needs to be triggered manually.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need to think about is how this workflow is going to get started. The prompt explicitly says \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me I need to look for a trigger node that allows for manual execution.\n\n### Node 1: The Trigger\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version**: `1`\n\nFor the trigger, I'd pick the `Manual Trigger` node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. This is ideal because the user wants to kick off the workflow simply by clicking an \"Execute\" button in the n8n interface. It's the simplest and most direct way to start a workflow on demand without any external events or schedules. The `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the standard current version for this node, indicating its stable and expected behavior. I don't really need to configure much on this node itself; it just serves as the starting point, pushing a single empty item down the workflow when executed. The JSON also confirms it has no specific parameters set beyond its basic identity.\n\n### Node 2: The Core Action - Bannerbear\n\nNow that I have the workflow starting, what's the very next step? The core of this workflow is interacting with Bannerbear to create an image. This immediately tells me I'll need a Bannerbear node.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.bannerbear`\n* **Type Version**: `1`\n\nSo, I'd add a `Bannerbear` node, type `n8n-nodes-base.bannerbear`, with `typeVersion 1`. This node is designed specifically for interacting with the Bannerbear API, handling image generation, fetching templates, and so on. It's the perfect choice for this task, as it abstracts away the HTTP requests and API complexities.\n\nNext, I need to think about how this Bannerbear node connects to the `Manual Trigger` node. It's a straightforward flow: once the manual trigger fires, it should immediately tell the Bannerbear node to do its job. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` to the `main` input of the `Bannerbear` node. This ensures that when the trigger is activated, the Bannerbear operation begins.\n\nNow, for the configuration of this `Bannerbear` node, there are several key pieces of information from the prompt that need to be translated into its parameters:\n\n* **Template ID**: The prompt specifies `8BK3vWZJ7Wl5Jzk1aX`. This is a direct input for the `templateId` parameter in the Bannerbear node. This tells Bannerbear which pre-designed template to use for the image generation.\n\n* **Modifying Fields**: The prompt mentions modifying the 'message' field with specific text, color, and background.\n * I'd go into the 'Modifications' section of the Bannerbear node's parameters. Here, I'd define a modification for the element named `message`.\n * For the text content, I'd set it to `'this is some text'`. This will dynamically replace the text in the 'message' element of the chosen template.\n * For the color, I'd specify `#3097BC`. This will change the text color of the 'message' element.\n * For the background, I'd use `#28A96F`. This will set the background color associated with that specific text element, assuming the template is designed to use a background color for it. The `modificationsUi.modificationsValues` structure in the JSON confirms this precise setup.\n\n* **Wait for Image**: The prompt explicitly says \"enabling 'Wait for Image'\". This is an important detail. Bannerbear can generate images asynchronously. By enabling 'Wait for Image' (found within `additionalFields` as `waitForImage: true`), the n8n workflow will pause at this Bannerbear node until the image generation process on Bannerbear's side is complete and the final image URL is available. This is crucial if subsequent nodes in the workflow need the generated image URL or actual image data.\n\n* **API Credentials**: Finally, the prompt states \"using your Bannerbear API credentials.\" The Bannerbear node requires authentication to connect to the Bannerbear service. In n8n, this is handled via a `Credential` field. I would configure this by selecting an existing Bannerbear API credential, or creating a new one if necessary. The JSON specifies `bannerbearApi: \"bannerbear_creds\"`, which indicates that a credential named \"bannerbear_creds\" (or similar, referring to a generic Bannerbear API key) would be linked here. This credential would contain the actual API key needed to authenticate requests to the Bannerbear service. I wouldn't specify the actual API key value here, as it's sensitive user data, but conceptually, this is where it would be securely stored and linked.\n\nAnd that's it! With the trigger set up and the Bannerbear node fully configured with its template, modifications, wait option, and credentials, the workflow would be ready to generate the image as specified." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, which then connects to a 'Set' node.

The first thing I need to do is establish how this workflow is going to kick off. The prompt clearly states it should \"start with a manual trigger.\"\n\nSo, my first step is to add a `manualTrigger` node. I'll use the type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion 1`. This is the perfect node for a workflow I want to initiate myself, perhaps for testing or for a one-off execution directly from the n8n interface. It's very straightforward; it doesn't really require any complex configuration parameters, so its `parameters` field is empty, which is exactly what I'd expect. The default name, \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", is perfectly descriptive for its function.\n\nNext, the prompt tells me that this manual trigger \"then connects to a 'Set' node.\" And this `Set` node has a very specific job: it needs to \"create a field named 'body' and assign it an XML string representing a library with three books.\"\n\nSo, I'll add a `Set` node. The node type will be `n8n-nodes-base.set` and the `typeVersion` is `3.2`. The `Set` node is exactly what I need here because its primary function is to manipulate data fields within the workflow items. I can use it to add new fields, modify existing ones, or even remove them. In this case, I'm adding a completely new field.\n\nNow, for configuring this `Set` node. I need to define the new field.\nUnder the `parameters` of the `Set` node, I'll find the `fields` property, which contains an array of `values`. I'll add a single entry to this `values` array.\n- The `name` for this new field must be \"body\", as specified.\n- For the `stringValue`, I'll paste in the entire XML structure. It's an XML declaration followed by a `<library>` root element. Inside, there are three `<book>` elements, each with `<title>`, `<author>`, `<publication_year>`, and `<isbn>` child elements. It's important to make sure the XML is well-formed and accurate. This content will be assigned directly as a string to the `body` field.\n\nLooking at the `options` within the `Set` node's parameters, it's an empty object. This implies I'm using the default behavior, which means the `Set` node will add the new \"body\" field to the existing item data it receives from the manual trigger. Since the manual trigger typically outputs an empty item, this effectively creates an item with just the \"body\" field containing the XML string. If the \"Keep Only Set\" option were enabled, it would discard any original data and only pass the \"body\" field, but for an empty starting item, the outcome is functionally the same. Sticking with the default is fine here.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The output of my `manualTrigger` node (named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\") needs to feed into the input of the `Set` node (named \"Edit Fields\"). This is a standard `main` connection, where the data flow is sequential. The `connections` object in the JSON reflects this: the `main` output of the trigger connects to the `main` input of the `Set` node. This ensures that when the manual trigger runs, the `Set` node immediately receives the instruction to create and populate the `body` field." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive workflow named 'My workflow 3' that starts with a Zendesk Trigger node configured with 'SandBox Zendesk account' OAuth2 credentials, fetching 'ticket.id' for 'new' tickets. The workflow is owned by MALCON VIVARELLI SILVA (mvsilva@padtec.com.br) as part of their personal project.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow 3\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"authentication\": \"oAuth2\", \"options\": {\"fields\": [\"ticket.id\"]}, \"conditions\": {\"any\": [{\"value\": \"new\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Zendesk Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.zendeskTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed.\n\nFirst off, looking at the overall goal, the prompt specifies creating an *inactive* workflow. So, right from the start, I'd make sure the `active` flag for the workflow is set to `false`. That ensures it won't run until explicitly activated, which is good practice for initial setup and testing. The workflow also needs to be named 'My workflow 3', which is straightforward to set in the `name` field. The `id`, `createdAt`, and `updatedAt` fields are system-generated, mostly for tracking and internal management.\n\nNow, let's get to the core logic. The workflow needs to start with a Zendesk Trigger, which means I'll definitely need a trigger node as the very first element. In n8n, trigger nodes are what kick off a workflow when a specific event occurs. For this, the `n8n-nodes-base.zendeskTrigger` node with `typeVersion 1` is the perfect fit.\n\nWhen I add this Zendesk Trigger node, I immediately think about how it's going to listen for events. The prompt says it should use 'SandBox Zendesk account' OAuth2 credentials. So, under the node's `parameters`, the `authentication` option would be set to `oAuth2`. This indicates that the connection to Zendesk will use the OAuth2 standard, which is a secure way to grant access without directly sharing username and password. The actual credential details, like the access token, would be stored separately and simply referenced here by an ID and a name, which in this case is 'SandBox Zendesk account'. I wouldn't include the sensitive token itself in the workflow definition, just the pointer to it.\n\nNext, I need to configure *what* data the trigger should fetch and *when* it should trigger. The prompt specifies fetching 'ticket.id' for 'new' tickets. So, within the `options` for the Zendesk Trigger, I'd set the `fields` array to include `ticket.id`. This ensures that when an event comes in, the workflow primarily gets the ticket ID, which is often sufficient for initial processing.\n\nFor the triggering condition, the prompt states 'new' tickets. So, I'd go into the `conditions` parameter. I'd set up a rule that specifically looks for tickets where their status, or perhaps a specific flag, indicates they are \"new\". The JSON shows this as `conditions: {\"any\": [{\"value\": \"new\"}]}`, which means the trigger fires if *any* of the conditions are met, and in this case, there's just one condition checking for the value \"new\". This is how the node knows to only activate for newly created tickets rather than updates or closed tickets.\n\nThe node itself will have a unique `id` and a `name`, like \"Zendesk Trigger\", to make it identifiable within the workflow editor. It also gets a `position` on the canvas, which is `[0, 0]` in this case, placing it at the top-left, a common starting point for a single trigger node. There's also a `webhookId`, which is an internal identifier generated by n8n that helps Zendesk send events to this specific workflow instance.\n\nSince this workflow only has one node, the `connections` array is empty, which makes sense because there are no subsequent nodes for the Zendesk Trigger to connect to. If I were to add more nodes, like a Slack notification or a database update, I'd then define the connections here.\n\nLooking at the overall workflow, there are `settings` for `executionOrder`, set to `v1`. This is generally a default and determines how nodes are processed, but for a single-node workflow, it doesn't have a significant impact.\n\nFinally, the prompt mentions the workflow is \"owned by MALCON VIVARELLI SILVA (mvsilva@padtec.com.br) as part of their personal project.\" This information is reflected in the `shared` array. This array defines access and ownership. It shows an entry with `role: \"workflow:owner\"` linking the workflow to a specific `projectId`. This project itself is of `type: \"personal\"` and has a name that often includes the owner's name and email, clearly indicating who created and owns this particular workflow. The `projectRelations` within the project further solidify this by linking the project to a user ID and specifying a `project:personalOwner` role, ensuring the user's details are associated with their personal project and ownership of the workflow. The `createdAt` and `updatedAt` timestamps in these sections simply track when these ownership relationships were established or last modified.\n\nThe other top-level properties like `meta`, `pinData`, `staticData`, `tags`, and `triggerCount` are either `null`, empty, or `0` because this is a very basic, single-node workflow without any advanced metadata, pinned notes, static configuration data, organizational tags, or a history of manual triggers." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFileAI agent definition' that triggers via a webhook, retrieves content from the Google Docs URL 'https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1DCysJeNCkNVxDINeuEoOlEeoyHsuvpajMnajrkM3E8Y\/view', and responds to the webhook with that retrieved content.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFileAI agent definition\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"a793374f-13f1-4bb2-b7d6-f709893abd7d\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1DCysJeNCkNVxDINeuEoOlEeoyHsuvpajMnajrkM3E8Y\/view\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's think through building this workflow. The user wants an n8n workflow that starts with a webhook, fetches content from a specific Google Docs URL, and then sends that content back as the webhook response.\n\nFirst things first, for any workflow that needs to react to an external event, I'll need a trigger node. The prompt explicitly says it \"triggers via a webhook,\" so that makes the choice very clear.\n\n* I'll start by adding a **Webhook** node. This is of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and it's using `typeVersion 2`. This node is essential because it provides an HTTP endpoint that external systems can call to initiate the workflow. When an HTTP request hits this endpoint, the workflow will start executing.\n* For its configuration, I see `path` is set to a specific UUID, which defines the unique URL path for this webhook. The `responseMode` is set to `\"responseNode\"`. This is crucial. It means that the Webhook node itself won't immediately send a response; instead, a subsequent node in the workflow will be responsible for crafting and sending that response. This gives us the flexibility to perform operations *after* the webhook is received but *before* the response is sent back, which is exactly what we need here to fetch content from Google Docs.\n\nNow that the workflow can be triggered, the next step is to retrieve the content from the Google Docs URL. This clearly points to needing an integration with Google Docs.\n\n* So, following the Webhook, I'll add a **Google Docs** node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion 2`. This is the perfect node type for interacting with Google Docs documents.\n* The connection from the \"Webhook\" node's `main` output to the \"Google Docs\" node's `main` input is straightforward, ensuring that when the webhook triggers, the workflow proceeds to the Google Docs operation.\n* Within the Google Docs node, the `operation` parameter is set to `\"get\"`, which means we intend to retrieve a document.\n* The `documentURL` parameter would be configured with the specific URL of the Google Doc we want to retrieve content from. This is where the provided Google Docs URL would be placed.\n* It also requires `credentials`. I'd need to ensure that the appropriate Google Docs OAuth2 API credentials are set up and selected here, allowing n8n to authenticate and access the specified Google Doc. These credentials would handle the necessary authorization tokens to interact with Google's API securely.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that the workflow needs to \"respond to the webhook with that retrieved content.\" Since we set the initial Webhook node's `responseMode` to `\"responseNode\"`, we need a dedicated node for sending the response.\n\n* I'll add a **Respond to Webhook** node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion 1.1`. This node is specifically designed to send an HTTP response back to the webhook that triggered the workflow.\n* The connection from the \"Google Docs\" node's `main` output flows into the \"Respond to Webhook\" node's `main` input. This ensures that the Google Docs node has completed its operation and the content is available before we attempt to send it back.\n* For its configuration, the `respondWith` parameter is set to `\"text\"`. This indicates that the response body will be plain text.\n* And most importantly, the `responseBody` is set using an expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This is where the magic happens. The Google Docs node, when it successfully retrieves a document, typically outputs the document's content in a field like `content` within its JSON output. This expression dynamically takes that `content` from the previous node's output and uses it as the body of the response sent back to the original webhook caller. So, whatever text was in the Google Doc will be the response.\n\nAnd that completes the flow! The webhook triggers, the document content is fetched, and then that content is used to respond to the original webhook request." } { "prompt": "Here are a couple of options:\n\n1. **Generate an n8n workflow containing an AWS SNS Trigger node configured to listen to the topic `arn:aws:sns:ap-south-1:100558637562:n8n-rocks` using the `amudhan-aws` credentials.**\n2. **Create an n8n workflow that starts with an AWS SNS Trigger node.

The user's prompt is pretty clear: they want an n8n workflow centered around an AWS SNS Trigger node. Specifically, it needs to listen to a particular topic using a designated set of AWS credentials.\n\nLooking at the provided JSON, it's a very straightforward workflow, essentially just one node.\n\nFirst off, since the requirement is to listen to an AWS SNS topic, the obvious choice for a starting point, or really the core of this entire workflow, is an AWS SNS Trigger node. This node is specifically designed to act as a webhook or listener for messages published to an Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) topic. It's perfect for initiating a workflow whenever a new message lands on the specified SNS topic.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding that node. Its full type is `n8n-nodes-base.awsSnsTrigger`. The JSON indicates its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the current common version for this node type, and it functions as expected for this purpose. I don't foresee any immediate need to consider different versions unless there were specific features or breaking changes I needed to account for, but for this simple setup, version 1 is perfectly fine.\n\nNext, I need to configure this AWS SNS Trigger node. The prompt specifies two crucial pieces of information: the topic to listen to and the credentials to use.\n\nFor the topic, the JSON shows a `parameters` object with a `topic` property set to `arn:aws:sns:ap-south-1:100558637562:n8n-rocks`. This is the exact Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the SNS topic that the node should monitor. So, within the node's configuration, I'd input this ARN directly into the \"Topic ARN\" field. This tells the node precisely which stream of messages it needs to subscribe to and listen for.\n\nThen, there are the credentials. The JSON specifies `credentials` with an `aws` key pointing to `amudhan-aws`. This means that the AWS SNS Trigger node will need to authenticate with AWS using a pre-configured credential set named \"amudhan-aws\". This credential set would typically contain the necessary AWS Access Key ID and Secret Access Key, or possibly an IAM Role ARN, that grant n8n the permissions to subscribe to and receive messages from the specified SNS topic. Without the correct credentials, the node wouldn't be able to establish a connection to AWS SNS. So, I'd select this specific credential alias from the dropdown in the node's settings.\n\nThat's really it for this workflow! The JSON shows no connections, and since it's a trigger node, it acts as the starting point. Any subsequent nodes would simply connect from its output, processing the data received from the SNS topic. For example, if I wanted to log the message, I'd connect a Write Data to File node or a Log node after this trigger.

The request is pretty clear about the starting point and the next step, so I'll follow that closely.\n\nFirst off, the request specifies the workflow name should be \"My workflow 8\". So, when setting up the new workflow, that's the name I'd give it right from the start.\n\nNow, looking at the core of the workflow, the prompt states it needs to *start* with an \"n8n Form Trigger\" node. This immediately tells me I need a trigger node, and specifically this type, because it's designed to expose a web form that users can fill out, which then initiates the workflow. It's perfect for collecting data directly from an external source or a user input. So, I'll drag and drop an \"n8n Form Trigger\" node onto the canvas. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger` and the version typically used now is `typeVersion 2`.\n\nOnce I have that \"n8n Form Trigger\" node in place, I need to configure it as per the instructions.\n* The prompt asks for the path `d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a`. This is crucial because it defines the unique URL endpoint for the form. It's essentially the identifier that n8n uses to listen for submissions to *this specific* form. I'd input that into the 'path' field.\n* Next, the form needs a title, which is specified as \"test\". This is what will appear at the top of the form when a user accesses it in their browser, making it clear what the form is for. So, I'll set the 'formTitle' parameter to \"test\".\n* Finally, the prompt requires a single form field labeled \"test\". For this, I'll go into the 'Form Fields' section, add a new field, and set its 'Field Label' to \"test\". This means the form will display an input box with \"test\" next to it, asking the user to provide some information. I'm not given any specific type for the field (like text, number, etc.), so a default text field should be fine.\n\nWith the \"n8n Form Trigger\" node configured, the next step in the prompt is to connect its output to a \"Switch\" node. A \"Switch\" node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.switch` and generally `typeVersion 2`, is a logical choice here if the workflow needs to perform different actions based on the input received from the form. While the prompt doesn't specify *how* the switch should be configured (e.g., what conditions to check), its mere presence suggests that future logic might branch out. It's often used right after a trigger when you anticipate needing to route data down different paths based on values.\n\nSo, I'll add a \"Switch\" node to the canvas. Since no specific conditions were provided in the prompt, I'll leave its parameters at their default. The critical part here is making the connection. I'll take the main output handle from the \"n8n Form Trigger\" node and draw a line to the main input handle of the \"Switch\" node. This ensures that any data submitted through the form will flow directly into the \"Switch\" node for potential processing or routing.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the requirements laid out in the prompt. The workflow now has its starting point, properly configured to receive form submissions, and passes that data on to a \"Switch\" node, ready for subsequent conditional logic." } { "prompt": "Build a workflow that first creates a CrateDB table named 'test' with 'id' and 'name' columns, and then inserts a single record with `id=0` and `name='n8n'` into that table.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [550, 400]}, {\"parameters\": {\"query\": \"CREATE TABLE test (id INT, name STRING);\", \"operation\": \"executeQuery\"}, \"name\": \"CrateDB\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.crateDb\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [750, 400]}, {\"parameters\": {\"table\": \"test\", \"columns\": \"id, name\"}, \"name\": \"CrateDB1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.crateDb\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1150, 400]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"id\", \"value\": 0}], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"name\", \"value\": \"n8n\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [950, 400]}], \"connections\": {\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"CrateDB1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"CrateDB\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"CrateDB\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. My goal is to build a CrateDB workflow that first creates a table and then inserts a record.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. Since the prompt doesn't specify a schedule or an external trigger, a manual trigger seems most appropriate. So, I'll start by adding an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. This node, with `typeVersion 1`, is perfect for when I want to kick off the workflow myself, just by clicking a button in the n8n interface. It doesn't require any specific configuration; its job is simply to initiate the flow.\n\nNext up, the core task is to interact with CrateDB. The first part of the prompt is to \"create a CrateDB table named 'test' with 'id' and 'name' columns.\" This is a DDL (Data Definition Language) operation, which means I'll need to execute a raw SQL query. For database interactions, the `n8n-nodes-base.crateDb` node is the obvious choice. I'll connect it directly to my `On clicking 'execute'` trigger, as this is the very first action I want to perform after starting the workflow. I'll give it the name \"CrateDB\" for clarity.\n\nFor configuring this \"CrateDB\" node, I need to tell it what to do. Since it's a DDL command, the `operation` should be set to `executeQuery`. This allows me to provide a custom SQL query. The user prompt specifies the table name as 'test' with columns 'id' (integer) and 'name' (string). So, the `query` parameter will be set to `CREATE TABLE test (id INT, name STRING);`. I'll also note that this node has `alwaysOutputData` set to `true`, which is generally good practice for a node executing a query, as it ensures that even if the query doesn't return explicit data, the workflow continues and potentially provides execution status. Of course, this node will need credentials to connect to the CrateDB instance, which would be generically referenced as `cratedb_creds` here.\n\nNow that the table is created, the next step is to \"insert a single record with `id=0` and `name='n8n'` into that table.\" Before I can insert data, I need to make sure the data itself is available for the CrateDB node to consume. A great way to define static, specific data within a workflow is by using a `n8n-nodes-base.set` node. I'll connect this `Set` node directly from the \"CrateDB\" table creation node. The logic here is: once the table is confirmed to be created, *then* prepare the data to be inserted.\n\nInside this `Set` node, which uses `typeVersion 1`, I'll configure the `values` parameter. I need an `id` with a numeric value of `0` and a `name` with a string value of `'n8n'`. So, under `number` values, I'll add an item named `id` with a value of `0`. And under `string` values, I'll add an item named `name` with a value of `'n8n'`. This `Set` node will output a single item containing these two properties, which is exactly what the subsequent CrateDB insert operation will expect. The `alwaysOutputData` parameter is `false` here, which is the default and perfectly fine for a `Set` node, as it will always output data based on its configuration.\n\nFinally, to perform the actual insertion, I'll add another `n8n-nodes-base.crateDb` node. I'll call this one \"CrateDB1\" to differentiate it from the first one. This node needs to be connected to the `Set` node because it relies on the data provided by the `Set` node for its operation.\n\nFor the configuration of \"CrateDB1\", I need to specify where the data should go and what columns it pertains to. The `table` parameter will be set to `'test'`, matching the table I just created. The `columns` parameter will be set to `'id, name'`, indicating the order and names of the columns I'm providing data for. It's interesting to note that the `operation` parameter is *not* explicitly set in the JSON for this node. This implies that the node is designed to intelligently infer the `insert` operation when it receives incoming data, and `table` and `columns` are specified without a specific operation like `executeQuery` or `getAll`. This is a common pattern for n8n database nodes when performing a standard insert. Just like the first CrateDB node, this one will also use the `cratedb_creds` credentials to authenticate with the database. After this node executes, the record should be successfully inserted into the `test` table. That completes the workflow as per the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and uses the DebugHelper node to generate 100 random data items with a seed of 0.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Execute workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [780, 500]}, {\"parameters\": {\"category\": \"randomData\", \"randomDataSeed\": \"0\", \"randomDataCount\": 100}, \"name\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1000, 500]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Execute workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's design this workflow step by step.\n\nThe user's prompt is pretty clear: \"Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and uses the DebugHelper node to generate 100 random data items with a seed of 0.\"\n\nMy first thought is always, \"How does this workflow get kicked off?\" The prompt explicitly says it \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This makes my initial node choice very straightforward.\n\n1. **Node 1: The Trigger**\n * I need a trigger that I can manually activate from the n8n interface. The most suitable node for this is the **Manual Trigger** node. It's designed precisely for situations where you want to initiate a workflow execution by clicking a button.\n * So, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This is a standard and stable version of this node, and it perfectly fits the requirement for a manual start.\n * As a trigger, it doesn't need any specific input parameters from previous nodes. Its `parameters` object in the JSON is empty, which is expected for this type of basic trigger. It simply waits for a manual command to emit one item to start the workflow.\n\n2. **Node 2: Generating the Data**\n * Next, the prompt states that the workflow should \"use the DebugHelper node to generate 100 random data items with a seed of 0.\" This immediately tells me what my second node needs to be: a **DebugHelper** node.\n * The **DebugHelper** node is super useful for testing, debugging, and, as in this case, generating sample data. It's a versatile utility node.\n * So, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper` with `typeVersion 1`. This is the common version used for its various functions.\n * Now, how do I connect it? The `DebugHelper` needs to execute *after* the `Manual Trigger` initiates the workflow. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the \"When clicking \\\"Execute workflow\\\"\" node (my `manualTrigger`) to the `main` input of the \"DebugHelper\" node. This ensures that when I manually execute the workflow, the `DebugHelper` node will run immediately afterward.\n\n3. **Configuring the DebugHelper Node**\n * This is where the specific requirements for generating random data come into play.\n * The prompt asks to \"generate 100 random data items.\" Within the `DebugHelper` node's parameters, there's a `category` option. I need to set this to `\"randomData\"` to tell the node that its purpose is to create random data.\n * Then, for the quantity, there's a `randomDataCount` parameter. I'll set this to `100` to satisfy the requirement of generating \"100 random data items.\"\n * Finally, the prompt specifies \"with a seed of 0.\" This is crucial for reproducibility. If I run this workflow multiple times with the same seed, I'll get the exact same sequence of \"random\" data, which is incredibly helpful for testing and debugging consistent scenarios. The `DebugHelper` node has a `randomDataSeed` parameter. I'll set this to `\"0\"`, as requested.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow would then be ready. It starts when I click \"Execute workflow,\" and then the `DebugHelper` node immediately generates 100 consistent random data items based on the seed, which I can then inspect in the execution results." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Node versions' containing a manual trigger and a function node.

The prompt asks for a workflow named \"Node versions,\" so that's the first thing I'd configure for the overall workflow settings.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to be triggered. Looking at the provided JSON, I see a manual trigger node, which is perfect for this scenario since it's about demonstrating node types rather than reacting to an external event or a schedule.\n\n* I'll add a **Manual Trigger node**, specifically of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. Its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is ideal because it allows me to execute the workflow on demand, simply by clicking a button in the n8n interface. It\u2019s a very straightforward way to test or run a workflow when the timing isn't crucial or is user-initiated. The JSON names it \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", which clearly indicates its purpose. I'd place it at position `[460, 460]` on the canvas.\n\nNext, the prompt also mentioned including a Function node. The Function node is incredibly versatile for custom logic, data manipulation, or just testing simple code snippets within the workflow.\n\n* So, I'd add a **Function node** of type `n8n-nodes-base.function` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node allows me to write JavaScript code to process or generate data. While the specific code isn't provided or required by the prompt, its presence fulfils the requirement. It's simply named \"Function\" and placed at `[960, 460]`.\n\nNow, for the core part of this demonstration: the three 'Set' nodes, each showcasing a different `typeVersion`. The Set node is great for adding, updating, or removing fields from the incoming data, which makes it perfect for demonstrating how different node versions might handle data manipulation, even if no actual data transformation is specified here.\n\n* First, I'll add a **Set node** with an explicit `typeVersion: 2`. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set`. The JSON names it \"Edit Fields (old)\" and places it at `[800, 460]`. Specifying `typeVersion: 2` means this node will behave exactly as it did in that specific version, which can be useful for maintaining compatibility with older workflows or observing how a feature might have evolved. If I were setting this up from scratch and needed a specific older behavior for some reason, I'd choose this version.\n\n* Next, I need a Set node with the latest `typeVersion`. The JSON specifies `typeVersion: 3.4` for one of them. This is interesting as it's a very specific point release.\n * I'll add another **Set node**, type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and explicitly set its `typeVersion` to `3.4`. This one is named \"Edit Fields (latest)\" in the JSON and positioned at `[640, 460]`. Using a specific, newer `typeVersion` like `3.4` implies that this node is intended to take advantage of features or bug fixes introduced up to that specific version, ensuring it behaves with the most current logic available at that point in time for this specific node type. It's essentially locking it to a newer, but not necessarily the *absolute* bleeding edge, version, which could be important for stability if a later version introduced breaking changes.\n\n* Finally, the prompt asked for a Set node with *no* `typeVersion` specified. When `typeVersion` is omitted from a node's definition in n8n, it typically defaults to the earliest available or a very common base version for that node type, often `1` or `0` depending on the node's history. It effectively lets the n8n instance decide the most compatible or default behavior.\n * So, I'd add the third **Set node**, again of type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, but this time I'd simply *omit* the `typeVersion` property entirely from its definition. The JSON confirms this, naming it \"Edit Fields (no typeVersion)\" and placing it at `[1120, 460]`. This is important for demonstrating how n8n handles such cases, often defaulting to a stable, early version of the node's internal logic.\n\nNow, looking at the `connections` in the JSON, it's an empty object `{}`. This means that, as per the provided definition, these nodes are simply placed on the canvas for demonstration purposes. They are not explicitly connected to each other in a sequential flow. If I were building this to *run* and demonstrate the output of each Set node, I would typically connect the Manual Trigger to the first Set node, and then sequentially connect the Set nodes, perhaps followed by the Function node if it were meant to process the combined output. However, since the JSON clearly indicates no connections, I'll just place them as described, acknowledging that without connections, they won't execute in any particular sequence or pass data between them in a live run. They are isolated demonstrations of node types and their versions." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'UnleashedSoftware:SakesOrder:getAll:StockOnHand:getAll get' that queries Unleashed Software, specifically to retrieve a single 'Stock On Hand' item and then fetch its detailed information using its GUID, while also initiating a separate general Unleashed Software query.", "json": "{\"name\": \"UnleashedSoftware:SakesOrder:getAll:StockOnHand:getAll get\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Start\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.start\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"limit\": 1, \"filters\": {}}, \"name\": \"Unleashed Software\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.unleashedSoftware\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 230]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"stockOnHand\", \"limit\": 1, \"filters\": {}}, \"name\": \"Unleashed Software1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.unleashedSoftware\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"stockOnHand\", \"operation\": \"get\", \"productId\": \"={{$node[\\\"Unleashed Software1\\\"].json[\\\"Guid\\\"]}}\"}, \"name\": \"Unleashed Software2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.unleashedSoftware\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 380]}], \"connections\": {\"Unleashed Software1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Unleashed Software2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Start\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Unleashed Software\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}, {\"node\": \"Unleashed Software1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so I'm looking at this request to design an n8n workflow, and I've got the final JSON structure right in front of me. My goal is to break down how I'd arrive at this exact configuration, thinking step-by-step as if I'm building it from the ground up.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. So, I'd naturally begin by adding a **Start** node. This is a fundamental component in n8n, typically of type `n8n-nodes-base.start` with `typeVersion 1`. It doesn't really have any configurable parameters because its sole purpose is to kick off the workflow when it's manually executed or triggered by another system. It acts as the initial entry point for data flow, even if that data is just an empty item to begin processing.\n\nNow, looking at the user's prompt, it asks to \"query Unleashed Software, specifically to retrieve a single 'Stock On Hand' item and then fetch its detailed information using its GUID, while also initiating a separate general Unleashed Software query.\" This tells me I'll need at least a couple of Unleashed Software nodes. The \"separate general query\" and the \"single Stock On Hand item\" suggest two distinct initial queries that could potentially run in parallel.\n\nSo, from the **Start** node, I'd probably branch out.\n\nLet's tackle the \"separate general Unleashed Software query\" first. I'd add an **Unleashed Software** node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.unleashedSoftware` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is specifically designed to interact with the Unleashed Software API. I'd connect it directly from the `main` output of the **Start** node. For its parameters, since the prompt specifies a \"general query\" and doesn't mention a specific resource, I'd configure it without a `resource` specified, and just set `limit` to `1`. This would mean it retrieves a single item from whatever the default or top-level query for Unleashed is, without any specific filtering. Of course, this node would require credentials to connect to the Unleashed API; those would be configured in the `credentials` section, referencing an existing credential set, but the actual values are never hardcoded here.\n\nIn parallel to that general query, I also need to get \"a single 'Stock On Hand' item.\" So, back to the `main` output of the **Start** node, I'd add another **Unleashed Software** node. Let's call this one \"Unleashed Software1\" to distinguish it. It's also of type `n8n-nodes-base.unleashedSoftware` with `typeVersion 1`, as it's performing another Unleashed operation. I'd connect this one from the `main` output of the **Start** node as well, making it run concurrently with the first Unleashed node. For its configuration, the prompt is clear: `resource` should be set to `stockOnHand`, and I'd set `limit` to `1` because it asks for a \"single\" item. No specific `filters` are mentioned for this initial retrieval, so I'd leave that empty. Again, it would also use the appropriate Unleashed API credentials.\n\nNow, the prompt has a crucial next step for this \"Stock On Hand\" item: \"fetch its detailed information using its GUID.\" This means the item retrieved by \"Unleashed Software1\" will provide the necessary ID for the subsequent detailed query.\n\nSo, from the `main` output of \"Unleashed Software1,\" I'd connect a third **Unleashed Software** node. Let's call this \"Unleashed Software2.\" This node will also be of type `n8n-nodes-base.unleashedSoftware` with `typeVersion 1`. Its purpose is to get the detailed information. To do this, its `operation` parameter needs to be set to `get`, and the `resource` will again be `stockOnHand`. The critical part here is providing the GUID. I'd use an expression to pull the `Guid` field from the output of the previous node (\"Unleashed Software1\"). So, the `productId` parameter (which is typically used for GUIDs in \"get\" operations for many Unleashed resources, including Stock On Hand) would be set using an expression like `={{$node[\"Unleashed Software1\"].json[\"Guid\"]}}`. This dynamically inserts the GUID from the item retrieved by \"Unleashed Software1\" into this request, ensuring we're fetching details for the specific item we just found. And naturally, it would also be configured with the same Unleashed API credentials.\n\nThis structure allows the workflow to first query for a single Stock On Hand item, then immediately use its unique identifier to pull more detailed information about that very item, all while a separate general query is also running in parallel." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that uses the Toggl trigger to get new time entries.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get new time entries from Toggl\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"pollTimes\": {\"item\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Toggl\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.togglTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 250]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this n8n workflow designed to pull new time entries from Toggl. The user prompt is clear: \"Create an n8n workflow that uses the Toggl trigger to get new time entries.\" This immediately tells me what kind of starting point I need for the workflow.\n\nWhen building any workflow that needs to react to external events or regularly check for new data, the first thing I look for is a suitable trigger node. Given the specific requirement to use a \"Toggl trigger,\" my mind immediately goes to the specialized Toggl trigger node provided by n8n.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a `Toggl` node. Looking at the provided JSON, it confirms this choice exactly. The node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.togglTrigger`, and it specifies `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfectly suited for the task because it's designed to interface directly with the Toggl API to detect and retrieve new time entry records. It acts as the workflow's entry point, initiating execution whenever it discovers new data.\n\nNow, how would I configure this `Toggl` trigger? The JSON provides some clues within its `parameters`. I see `{\"pollTimes\": {\"item\": [{}]}}`. This indicates that the trigger is set up to poll Toggl for updates. While the exact polling interval isn't explicitly defined in terms of, say, \"every 5 minutes\" or \"hourly,\" the presence of `pollTimes` suggests it's configured to regularly check for new entries based on n8n's default or a minimal polling setting. If I were setting this up from scratch and performance or latency was a concern, I might adjust these poll times to be more specific, like checking every few minutes. But for this configuration, it's set to simply enable the polling mechanism.\n\nFinally, and crucially for any API integration, I need to consider authentication. The JSON clearly shows `credentials: {\"togglApi\": \"\"}`. This tells me that for this `togglTrigger` node to actually connect to my Toggl account and fetch data, it requires `Toggl API` credentials to be configured. This is where a user would provide their personal Toggl API token, allowing n8n to securely authenticate and make authorized requests to their Toggl workspace. Without these credentials securely linked, the trigger node wouldn't be able to access any time entry data.\n\nSince the provided JSON only includes this single `Toggl` trigger node, the workflow itself is quite simple. It effectively just *starts* the process of getting new time entries from Toggl. It listens, fetches, and then provides that data as output. If the goal were to, say, send these new time entries to a spreadsheet or another application, I would then connect a subsequent node, like a `Google Sheets` node or an `HTTP Request` node, to process the data output by this `Toggl` trigger. But based on the current JSON, the design focuses purely on the initial data acquisition step." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, fetches up to 10 people from a 'Customer Datastore' and then sets two new properties on each item: `objectValue.prop1` to 123 (number) and `objectValue.prop2` to 'someText' (string).", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\", \"limit\": 10}, \"name\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop1\", \"value\": 123}], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop2\", \"value\": \"someText\"}]}, \"options\": {\"dotNotation\": true}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1080, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 440]}], \"connections\": {\"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow built. The user wants something that kicks off manually, pulls some customer data, and then adds a couple of specific properties to each customer record.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states \"when manually triggered\". So, for that, I'll definitely need a **Manual Trigger** node. This is perfect because it allows the user to just click a button to initiate the workflow, which matches the requirement.\n\nI'd select the node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and I see `typeVersion: 1` in the JSON, so I'll go with that. Its parameters are empty, as expected, since it just sits there waiting for a manual click. I'd place it roughly where it is in the JSON, let's say at position `[500, 440]`, as a starting point on my canvas. This is the simplest way to get things going without needing a schedule or a webhook.\n\nNow, once it's triggered, the next step is to actually get the data. The prompt mentions fetching \"up to 10 people from a 'Customer Datastore'\". This tells me I need a node that can interact with this \"Customer Datastore\". Looking at the JSON, there's a node named \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" which has the type `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` with `typeVersion: 1`. This looks like a specific node for a training environment, but it perfectly fits the description.\n\nI'd connect the `main` output of my \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\" (Manual Trigger) node to the `main` input of this \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node. That way, as soon as the workflow is manually triggered, it'll immediately proceed to fetch the customer data.\n\nFor configuring this Customer Datastore node, I need to look at its parameters. The prompt specifies \"fetches...people\", so the `operation` should be set to `getAllPeople`. And it needs \"up to 10 people\", so the `limit` parameter must be set to `10`. This ensures I retrieve exactly the number of records requested, or fewer if the datastore has less than 10. The node's position looks good at `[720, 440]`, a bit to the right of the trigger.\n\nAfter fetching the data, the final part of the requirement is to \"set two new properties on each item: `objectValue.prop1` to 123 (number) and `objectValue.prop2` to 'someText' (string)\". When I need to add or modify properties on incoming data items, the **Set** node is my go-to choice in n8n. It's incredibly versatile for this kind of data manipulation.\n\nSo, I'd add a **Set** node, of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node will take the output from the \"Customer Datastore\" node. I'll connect the `main` output of the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node to the `main` input of this new \"Set\" node. This ensures that every person record fetched by the previous node goes into the Set node for modification.\n\nNow, for configuring the Set node:\n* I need to set `objectValue.prop1` to `123` as a number. So, under the 'Values' section, I'd select 'Number' and add a new property. The 'Name' field would be `objectValue.prop1`, and the 'Value' would be `123`.\n* Similarly, I need to set `objectValue.prop2` to `'someText'` as a string. So, I'd add another property, selecting 'String', with 'Name' as `objectValue.prop2` and 'Value' as `someText`.\n* Crucially, since the property names use dot notation (e.g., `objectValue.prop1`), I need to enable the 'Dot Notation' option under the node's settings. This ensures that n8n correctly interprets `objectValue.prop1` as creating a nested object structure rather than a flat string key. The JSON shows `options: {\"dotNotation\": true}`, confirming this.\n\nI'd place this \"Set\" node at `[1080, 440]`, further along the workflow path. This completes the linear flow of the requested operations: trigger -> fetch data -> modify data. The `pinData` section in the JSON, which looks like connection information between the Set node and other internal processing, I usually don't manually configure directly when building; it's more of an internal n8n representation of how data flows, often related to how multiple items are processed.

My very first thought, when I read \"The workflow should be triggered by a webhook,\" is that we absolutely need a `Webhook` node. This is going to be our starting point, the entry gate for this whole process.\n\nSo, I'd add a `Webhook` node, specifically of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion 2`. This version gives us the right set of options for defining how it behaves. The main thing here is setting up its path. The prompt clearly states it should be at `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/BasicWorkflowCreation`. That's critical because it's the URL clients will hit to kick off the workflow. I'd input that exact path into the node's parameters. Also, since we're going to fetch content and then *respond* with it, I need to make sure the response mode is set to `responseNode`. This tells the webhook to wait for a dedicated `Respond to Webhook` node later in the flow, rather than sending an immediate blank response.\n\nOkay, so the webhook is set up to receive the trigger. What happens next? The prompt says \"retrieve content from the Google Doc URL.\" This immediately tells me I need to interact with Google Docs. N8n has a dedicated node for that, which is super convenient.\n\nSo, the next node I'd connect to the `Webhook` node would be a `Google Docs` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and it's using `typeVersion 2`. This node is perfect for reading, writing, or managing Google Docs. In this case, the goal is to get content, so the operation parameter inside this node would be set to `get`. And of course, this is where the specific document URL would be configured, telling the node exactly which Google Doc to fetch. Naturally, a Google Docs account or credential would be selected here, allowing the workflow to authenticate with Google Drive and access the document. Without proper credentials, this step wouldn't work.\n\nAfter successfully retrieving the document content from Google Docs, the final piece of the puzzle is to send that content back to whoever triggered the webhook. For this, n8n provides a specific node: `Respond to Webhook`.\n\nI'd connect the `Google Docs` node to a `Respond to Webhook` node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion 1.1`. This node is designed explicitly for sending a custom response back through the initial webhook trigger. The prompt specifies \"respond to the webhook with the document's content as plain text.\" So, within this `Respond to Webhook` node's parameters, I'd set `respondWith` to `text`. For the `responseBody`, I need to pull the actual content from the previous `Google Docs` node. That's where n8n's expression syntax comes in handy. I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` to dynamically insert the content that the Google Docs node outputted into the response body. The `content` field is a common output for document retrieval operations, so it's a safe bet that's where the text will be.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps up the functional flow. We've got the trigger, the data retrieval, and the response. Beyond the nodes themselves, I'd also ensure the workflow is tagged for better organization and searchability, as requested in the prompt. The tags like \"AI Onboarding,\" \"Day1,\" \"Files,\" and \"Onboarding\" would be added to the workflow's metadata. This makes it easier to find and categorize later on." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that is triggered by two separate webhooks.

Looking at the JSON, I see one named \"Webhook\". Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the typeVersion is 2. This is the standard way to initiate a workflow based on an incoming HTTP request. I'd configure its path, which acts as the unique endpoint URL, something like the `4a3398e4-1388-4e10-9d21-add90b804955` I see in the JSON, which n8n typically auto-generates for a new webhook.\n\nThen, since the prompt specifies *two* separate webhooks, I'd drag in a second **Webhook** node. I see this in the JSON as \"Webhook1\". It also needs to be of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and typeVersion 2, just like the first one. I'd give it its own unique path, perhaps something like `30ff316d-405f-4288-a0ac-e713546c9d4e` as indicated in the provided data, ensuring it has a distinct endpoint from the first. These two nodes will act as independent entry points into the workflow.\n\nNext, both webhooks need to \"connect to a Hacker News node configured to fetch article ID 123.\" This means I need to add the Hacker News functionality. I'd search for a Hacker News node, and sure enough, the JSON shows one named \"Hacker News\". Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.hackerNews` with typeVersion 1. This node is specifically designed to interact with the Hacker News API, so it's a perfect fit for fetching an article.\n\nNow for the crucial part: connecting it and configuring it. The prompt explicitly says \"configured to fetch article ID 123.\" So, when I set up this Hacker News node, I would go into its parameters and find the `articleId` field. I'd then input `123` there. This ensures that no matter which webhook triggers the workflow, this Hacker News node will always try to retrieve that specific article.\n\nFor the connections, both of my webhook nodes need to point to this single Hacker News node. So, I'd connect the `main` output of my first \"Webhook\" node to the `main` input of the \"Hacker News\" node. I'd do the exact same thing for the \"Webhook1\" node, connecting its `main` output to the `main` input of the \"Hacker News\" node. This way, whether a request comes into \"Webhook\" or \"Webhook1\", the flow will continue to the Hacker News node. This merging of paths is quite common and efficient.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that the Hacker News node \"then passes the data to an 'Edit Fields' node.\" This indicates the final processing step for the data fetched from Hacker News. I'd look for a suitable node to manipulate the data, and the JSON points to one named \"Edit Fields\". It's of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and typeVersion 3.3. The `Set` node is incredibly versatile for modifying the data structure \u2013 I could use it to add new fields, rename existing ones, remove fields, or set static values. In this case, the JSON shows its parameters are simply `{\"options\": {}}`, meaning it's set up but not currently performing any specific data manipulation, but it's ready to be configured if, for example, I wanted to add a timestamp to the output or simplify the Hacker News data before it goes elsewhere.\n\nTo complete the flow, I'd connect the `main` output of the \"Hacker News\" node to the `main` input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This ensures that the article data fetched by the Hacker News node is then passed directly into the \"Edit Fields\" node for any subsequent transformations.\n\nAnd that's it! Two entry points, a shared data fetching step, and a final data manipulation\/preparation step.

The prompt clearly states it should start with a \"manual trigger.\" So, the very first node I'd reach for is the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This is perfect because it allows someone to manually initiate the workflow right from the n8n interface, which is exactly what \"manual trigger\" implies. I don't need any special configurations for it, so its parameters object will simply be empty. I'll place it at `[460, 460]` on the canvas as a good starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt asks for a \"disabled 'Error' code node containing an intentional syntax error.\" This immediately tells me two things: I'll need a `Code` node, and it needs to be explicitly marked as disabled. So, after my manual trigger, I'd drag in an `n8n-nodes-base.code` node, also with `typeVersion 1`. A `Code` node is ideal for this because it lets me write custom JavaScript, which is where I'll introduce that intentional syntax error.\n\nNow, for its configuration:\n* I'll name it \"Error\" as specified in the prompt.\n* Crucially, I need to set its `disabled` property to `true`. This means that even though it has an error, the workflow will simply skip over it during execution, preventing it from breaking the entire flow unless it's deliberately enabled for testing the error.\n* Inside the `jsCode` parameter, I'll put the JavaScript code. The prompt also says it should \"add 'myNewField' to input items\" (which is actually what the *next* node does, but the `Error` node's code attempts something similar before failing). So, I'd write something like:\n ```javascript\n \/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n \/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\n for (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n error \/\/ <-- This is the intentional syntax error!\n }\n\n return $input.all();\n ```\n The `error` keyword on its own is not a defined variable or function in JavaScript, so it will definitely cause a `ReferenceError` if this node were to run. I'll position this node around `[680, 460]`, just to the right of the trigger, indicating the flow.\n\nAfter that \"Error\" node, the prompt specifies that it \"then connects to a working 'Code' node that adds 'myNewField' to input items.\" So, I'll add another `n8n-nodes-base.code` node, again with `typeVersion 1`, as it's perfect for custom data manipulation.\n\nFor this second `Code` node's configuration:\n* I'll name it simply \"Code\" as in the JSON.\n* This one needs to *actually* work and add the field. So, its `jsCode` will be similar to the previous one, but without the error:\n ```javascript\n \/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n \/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\n for (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n }\n\n return $input.all();\n ```\n This code will successfully iterate through any incoming items (in this case, the single empty item generated by the manual trigger, as the \"Error\" node is disabled and effectively skipped) and add `myNewField` to each. I'll place this node further right, at `[900, 460]`.\n\nNow for the connections.\n* The `manualTrigger` (`On clicking 'execute'`) needs to connect its main output to the main input of the first `Code` node (`Error`). This sets up the direct flow of execution.\n* Then, the `Error` node needs to connect its main output to the main input of the second `Code` node (`Code`). Even though the \"Error\" node is disabled, the connection still needs to be there in the workflow definition to dictate the path if it were enabled or if the workflow logic was designed to skip disabled nodes. The data flow will effectively bypass the disabled \"Error\" node and go directly from the trigger's output to the final \"Code\" node's input.\n\nFinally, the prompt asks to \"include the tags 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'.\" These are workflow-level metadata, so I'll add them to the `tags` array in the overall workflow definition. I'd define them with their names, like `{\"name\": \"some-tag-1\"}` and `{\"name\": \"some-tag-2\"}`, and n8n would automatically assign `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, and `id` when they're truly saved in the system.

The goal here seems to be to demonstrate how different `typeVersion` values affect nodes, specifically focusing on the `Set` node.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger that kicks everything off. Looking at the prompt, it explicitly asks for a manual trigger. So, I'd definitely begin by dragging a **Manual Trigger** node onto the canvas.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThis node, named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", is perfect because it allows me to manually initiate the workflow for testing or specific runs. It's essentially a button I can press to send a single, empty item down the workflow path. Its purpose is purely to provide a starting signal, making it ideal for a demonstration workflow like this where we want to control when it runs.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions three `Set` nodes with specific `typeVersion` requirements, and a `Function` node. Given the positions in the JSON suggest a horizontal flow, let's follow that. After the manual trigger, I see a `Set` node that's labeled \"Edit Fields (latest)\".\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `3.4`\n\nThis `Set` node, named \"Edit Fields (latest)\", is crucial for demonstrating how data manipulation works with a specific, and in this case, a relatively recent `typeVersion`. The `Set` node is fantastic for adding, modifying, or removing fields from incoming items. For example, I might use it to add a new field named `currentVersion` and give it a value like 'latest (3.4)'. It would receive the empty item from the `Manual Trigger`, and then transform it by adding or modifying properties. If this workflow were live, I'd connect the output of the `Manual Trigger` directly to the input of this \"Edit Fields (latest)\" node.\n\nFollowing the visual layout, the next node seems to be another `Set` node, but this one is named \"Edit Fields (old)\".\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `2`\n\nThis `Set` node, \"Edit Fields (old)\", is particularly interesting because it uses an older `typeVersion` of `2`. The core functionality of a `Set` node remains the same \u2013 manipulating data \u2013 but older versions might have slightly different options in their user interface, or perhaps handle certain data types or expressions in a subtly different way than newer versions. Including it here allows for a direct comparison of behavior or available options. In a functional workflow, I would connect the output of the \"Edit Fields (latest)\" node to the input of this \"Edit Fields (old)\" node. This way, the data transformed by the first `Set` node would then be passed to and potentially further modified by this older version of the `Set` node.\n\nAfter these two `Set` nodes, the JSON places a `Function` node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.function`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nA `Function` node is incredibly versatile. It allows me to write custom JavaScript code to perform almost any data transformation or logic that isn't covered by a standard n8n node. For example, I could use it to log the current state of the data, perform complex calculations, or even dynamically create new items based on the incoming data. Its `typeVersion` being `1` indicates it's using the standard, initial version of the Function node logic. I'd wire up the output of the \"Edit Fields (old)\" `Set` node to the input of this `Function` node, so it can process the data that has passed through the two `Set` nodes. Inside this node, I might add some simple code like `return items.map(item => ({...item, processedByFunction: true}));` to clearly mark that the data has passed through this step.\n\nFinally, the last node in the visual flow is another `Set` node, named \"Edit Fields (no typeVersion)\".\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** (Not specified in JSON)\n\nThis `Set` node is quite telling. When `typeVersion` isn't explicitly defined in the workflow JSON, n8n typically defaults to the latest available `typeVersion` for that node type at the time the workflow is opened or saved, or a specific default version set by the system. This is a common practice to ensure workflows stay up-to-date with new features and bug fixes unless an older version is explicitly requested. This node would serve the same purpose as the other `Set` nodes \u2013 modifying data \u2013 but its primary role in this demonstration is to show the effect of omitting the `typeVersion` attribute. If I were building this out, the output of the `Function` node would feed into the input of this \"Edit Fields (no typeVersion)\" node, completing the sequential flow of data manipulation and illustrating the different `typeVersion` behaviors throughout the workflow. Each node passes its processed data to the next one, creating a pipeline where we can observe how each `Set` node, with its particular `typeVersion`, affects the incoming items." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that starts with a manual trigger, followed by two consecutive Gmail nodes, each performing a 'get' operation.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\"}, \"name\": \"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 2.1, \"position\": [900, 460]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 460]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\"}, \"name\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 2.1, \"position\": [680, 460]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Gmail\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start by mapping out this workflow. The user's request is quite clear: \"Create a workflow that starts with a manual trigger, followed by two consecutive Gmail nodes, each performing a 'get' operation.\" So, I know exactly what types of nodes I'll need and their sequence.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt specifically asks for a manual trigger. Looking at the JSON, I see a node with the ID `449ab540-d9d7-480d-b131-05e9989a69cd`. This node is named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", which is a common default name for a manual trigger. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is perfect for the requirement. I'd place this as my initial node on the canvas. It's the simplest trigger, activated just by clicking a button in the editor, making it ideal for testing or ad-hoc runs. There are no specific parameters to configure for this node other than its default settings, which is just that it outputs a single empty item when triggered.\n\nNext, the prompt states \"followed by two consecutive Gmail nodes, each performing a 'get' operation.\" So, my immediate thought is to connect a Gmail node directly to the manual trigger. I'll look for the first Gmail node in the JSON. I see a node with the ID `3a791321-6f0c-4f92-91e5-20e1be0d4964`. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.gmail` and `typeVersion` is `2.1`. This is exactly what's needed. The connection section confirms that \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" (my manual trigger) indeed connects its `main` output to this \"Gmail\" node. So, I'd draw that line from the manual trigger to this first Gmail node.\n\nNow, for configuring this first Gmail node. The user prompt specifies that each Gmail node should perform a 'get' operation. Looking at the `parameters` for this Gmail node (`3a791321-6f0c-4f92-91e5-20e1be0d4964`), I see `{\"operation\": \"get\"}`. This perfectly matches the requirement. A 'get' operation in the context of Gmail usually means retrieving emails, threads, or specific message parts. For this node to actually function, it would need credentials configured \u2013 perhaps an OAuth2 authentication with a Gmail account. Beyond the 'operation', other parameters like \"resource\" (e.g., 'message', 'thread') and filters (e.g., sender, subject, unread status) would typically be set here to define *what* exactly is being \"gotten\" from Gmail. Since the JSON only specifies the `operation: \"get\"`, I'd assume default behavior for the rest, or that the user would fill those in. The `typeVersion 2.1` suggests it's a relatively recent iteration of the node, likely with improvements over older versions.\n\nFinally, the prompt asks for \"two consecutive Gmail nodes.\" This means I need a second Gmail node that follows the first one. I look at the remaining node in the JSON, `5b084875-bd5e-4731-9591-18d2c8996945`. It also has `type`: `n8n-nodes-base.gmail` and `typeVersion`: `2.1`. Its `parameters` also specify `{\"operation\": \"get\"}`. This is our second Gmail node. The connections section confirms this: the first \"Gmail\" node (`3a791321-6f0c-4f92-91e5-20e1be0d4964`) connects its `main` output to this node, which is referred to as \"Gmail1\" in the connections, even though its `name` field in the node definition is empty. So, I would connect the output of the first Gmail node to this second one.\n\nJust like the first Gmail node, this second one would also require credentials to be set up. It also performs a 'get' operation. The fact that it's consecutive implies that the data from the first 'get' operation *could* be used to inform the second 'get' operation, perhaps retrieving details of emails found by the first node, or searching for related emails. For example, the first node might get unread emails, and the second might then \"get\" the attachments from those emails, or \"get\" messages from the same sender. However, without specific additional parameters in the JSON, it's just two independent 'get' operations happening sequentially. They could be configured to fetch different types of Gmail data, or perhaps use the output of the first to filter the second. The `typeVersion 2.1` would again mean it's the same updated node.\n\nSo, the overall flow would be:\n1. **Manual Trigger**: Starts the workflow when manually activated.\n2. **First Gmail Node (Get)**: Retrieves Gmail data based on its internal configuration (e.g., specific emails or threads). It passes its output to the next node.\n3. **Second Gmail Node (Get)**: Also retrieves Gmail data, likely based on its own configuration, possibly leveraging data from the first node's output if expressions are used in its parameters.\n\nThis structure perfectly satisfies the user's prompt. It's straightforward and achieves the desired sequence of operations." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a Webhook node (path 'webhook', responding with all entries from the last node) and connects it to a Google Sheets node configured to read the range 'Problems!A:D' from sheet ID '17fzSFl1BZ1njldTfp5lvh8HtS0-pNXH66b7qGZIiGRU'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"range\": \"Problems!A:D\", \"options\": {}, \"sheetId\": \"17fzSFl1BZ1njldTfp5lvh8HtS0-pNXH66b7qGZIiGRU\"}, \"name\": \"Google Sheets\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [700, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"webhook\", \"options\": {}, \"responseData\": \"allEntries\", \"responseMode\": \"lastNode\"}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Sheets\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's lay out this workflow. When I'm thinking about building something like this, the very first thing I consider is how it's going to be triggered. The prompt explicitly states it \"starts with a Webhook node,\" which is great because it immediately tells me my entry point.\n\nSo, my first step would be to add a **Webhook** node. I'd choose the node type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is absolutely essential for any workflow that needs to be initiated by an external HTTP request, which seems to be exactly what's required here. It acts as an exposed endpoint that other systems can call to kick off our process.\n\nNow, configuring this Webhook node is crucial.\n* First, the `path` parameter. The prompt specifies `'webhook'`, so I'd set that. This means the full URL for triggering this workflow would look something like `your-n8n-instance.com\/webhook\/webhook`. It's how the outside world finds this specific trigger.\n* Next, the `responseData` parameter is set to `'allEntries'`. This tells the Webhook that when it responds to the incoming request, it should include all data items that have passed through the workflow up to that point.\n* And related to that, the `responseMode` is set to `'lastNode'`. This is a really important detail. It means the Webhook will wait for the very last node in its execution path to finish and then use *that node's output* as the response back to the caller. This implies that whatever the subsequent node does, its result will be what the original caller receives.\n\nNow that I have my trigger in place, I need to think about what happens next. The prompt clearly states it \"connects it to a Google Sheets node configured to read the range 'Problems!A:D' from sheet ID '17fzSFl1BZ1njldTfp5lvh8HtS0-pNXH66b7qGZIiGRU'.\" So, my immediate thought is to bring in a Google Sheets node.\n\nI'd add a **Google Sheets** node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets` with `typeVersion 1`. This is the perfect node type for interacting with Google Sheets, whether it's reading, writing, or appending data.\n\nFor its configuration:\n* The `range` parameter needs to be set. The prompt specifies `'Problems!A:D'`, which tells the node exactly which part of the spreadsheet to focus on \u2013 in this case, columns A through D within the sheet named \"Problems\". This is critical for getting the right subset of data.\n* Then, the `sheetId` parameter is provided: `'17fzSFl1BZ1njldTfp5lvh8HtS0-pNXH66b7qGZIiGRU'`. This unique ID ensures the node connects to the correct Google Sheet document. Without it, the node wouldn't know *which* sheet to read from.\n* The `options` are currently an empty object `{}`, which means we're not applying any special read options like \"First Row as Header\" or anything like that. For a basic read, this is perfectly fine.\n* Finally, for credentials, I see `credentials.googleApi: \"\"`. This is where an actual Google API credential would be linked. It's essential for the node to authenticate with Google Sheets and gain the necessary permissions to read the specified data. The exact credential would be configured separately in n8n's credential manager.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The JSON clearly shows the connection: the `main` output of the \"Webhook\" node connects directly to the `main` input of the \"Google Sheets\" node. This creates a linear flow: the webhook receives a request, triggers the workflow, and then the workflow immediately proceeds to execute the Google Sheets node. Since the Webhook was configured with `responseMode: \"lastNode\"`, the data that the Google Sheets node outputs (i.e., the content of the 'Problems!A:D' range) will be passed back to the Webhook, which will then use it as the response to the original caller. This makes perfect sense for a workflow that's designed to fetch data from Google Sheets and return it via an API endpoint." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then uses the DebugHelper node to generate 100 items of random data with a seed of 0.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [780, 500]}, {\"parameters\": {\"category\": \"randomData\", \"randomDataSeed\": \"0\", \"randomDataCount\": 100}, \"name\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1000, 500]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start by thinking about what this workflow needs to achieve. The prompt is pretty clear: it needs to start manually and then generate a specific amount of random data using a particular node.\n\nSo, the very first thing that comes to mind is how this workflow will be initiated. The prompt explicitly says \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me I need a trigger node that a user can click to start the workflow. Looking at the available nodes in n8n, the perfect fit for this is the `Manual Trigger` node.\n\nSo, I'd place a `Manual Trigger` node on the canvas. Its type would be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is really straightforward; its main purpose is just to kick off the workflow when someone clicks \"Execute Workflow\" or \"Test Workflow\" in the n8n UI. It doesn't typically require any specific parameters itself, as it's just a starting point. Its name will likely be something like \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\" by default, which is perfectly descriptive for its function.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"then uses the DebugHelper node to generate 100 items of random data with a seed of 0.\" This is the core logic after the trigger. So, my next step would be to add a `DebugHelper` node. This node is fantastic for testing and generating mock data, which is exactly what's required here. I'd drag and drop that onto the canvas. The type for this node is `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper` and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n\nNow, how do I connect these two? The `Manual Trigger` doesn't output any data in particular, but it signals that the workflow should proceed. So, I'd connect the `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` to the `main` input of the `DebugHelper` node. This tells the `DebugHelper` node to execute once the manual trigger has been activated.\n\nWith the `DebugHelper` node in place, I need to configure its parameters to match the prompt's requirements: \"generate 100 items of random data with a seed of 0.\"\n\n* I'd open the `DebugHelper` node's settings.\n* I'm looking for an option to generate random data. The `category` parameter is key here. I'd set `category` to `randomData`. This tells the `DebugHelper` node *what kind* of debugging or data generation operation it should perform.\n* Then, I need to specify how many items. There's a `randomDataCount` parameter, which I would set to `100` as requested. This ensures that the node outputs exactly 100 separate items of data.\n* Finally, the prompt specifies \"with a seed of 0.\" This is important for reproducibility. If I generate random data without a seed, it will be different every time. By setting the `randomDataSeed` parameter to `0`, the \"random\" data generated will actually be the same sequence of data every time the workflow runs, which is incredibly useful for testing and debugging.\n\nSo, to recap the `DebugHelper` node's configuration:\n* `category` set to `randomData`\n* `randomDataSeed` set to `0`\n* `randomDataCount` set to `100`\n\nAnd that should be it! The workflow now has a manual starting point, and it correctly uses the `DebugHelper` node to generate the specified amount and type of random data with the given seed. There are no further nodes or complex transformations requested, so this two-node setup with the simple main connection perfectly fulfills the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that listens for and receives updates from Customer.io specifically when a subscriber unsubscribes.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Receive updates when a subscriber unsubscribes in Customer.io\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"events\": [\"customer.unsubscribed\"]}, \"name\": \"Customer.io Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.customerIoTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 260]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user's request is pretty clear: they want an n8n workflow that specifically listens for updates from Customer.io, and the trigger for these updates should be a subscriber unsubscribing.\n\nSo, when I think about building a workflow that needs to react to an external event, the very first thing that comes to mind is a Trigger node. We need something that can actively listen or be invoked when that specific event happens in Customer.io.\n\nLooking at the n8n nodes available, and also keeping an eye on the provided JSON, it's clear that the perfect starting point is a **Customer.io Trigger** node. This makes intuitive sense because we're interacting with Customer.io, and we need to *trigger* the workflow based on an event originating from that service.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.customerIoTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. This specific node type is ideal because it's built to integrate directly with Customer.io's webhook system. It allows n8n to act as a listener, waiting for Customer.io to send it information. Other trigger nodes, like a generic Webhook node, could technically work, but a dedicated Customer.io Trigger node offers pre-built configurations and a more streamlined setup specific to Customer.io's event structure, making it much easier to configure and manage. The `typeVersion 1` indicates the current version of this particular node's implementation, which usually implies compatibility and the expected set of parameters. If there were a `typeVersion 2`, it might introduce new features or change how some parameters are handled, but for this workflow, version 1 is what we're working with.\n\nNow, let's configure this Customer.io Trigger node.\nThe most critical part here is telling it *what* event from Customer.io we're interested in. The user's prompt explicitly states \"when a subscriber unsubscribes.\" Looking at the JSON, I see the `parameters` block for this node specifies `{\"events\": [\"customer.unsubscribed\"]}`. This is exactly what we need. By setting this parameter, we are instructing the Customer.io Trigger node to only activate and proceed with the workflow when Customer.io sends an event specifically tagged as `customer.unsubscribed`. This filters out all other events that Customer.io might send, ensuring our workflow only runs for the exact use case defined.\n\nNext, I see the `credentials` parameter. For this Customer.io Trigger to work correctly, it needs to authenticate with Customer.io. The JSON indicates `{\"customerIoApi\": \"customerIO\"}`. This means that a credential set named \"customerIO\" (or whatever the user has named their Customer.io API credentials within n8n) would need to be pre-configured in n8n. This credential would typically contain an API key or other authentication tokens necessary for n8n to establish a secure and authorized connection with Customer.io. Without valid credentials, Customer.io wouldn't be able to communicate securely with this trigger, or vice versa, to set up the webhook.\n\nFinally, there's a `webhookId` property: `\"88092579-1b8d-4d44-98d5-f24b3579cbc2\"`. This is an internally generated or assigned ID for the specific webhook that n8n creates in Customer.io when this workflow is activated. It's how Customer.io knows *where* to send the event data back to n8n for this specific workflow. This ID is automatically managed by n8n and is unique to this particular webhook instance, ensuring that the incoming data for the `customer.unsubscribed` event from Customer.io is routed to the correct workflow in n8n.\n\nSince the provided JSON only includes this single Customer.io Trigger node and no connections, this workflow's primary function, as it stands, is solely to listen for and receive those unsubscription updates. Any subsequent actions, like processing the unsubscription data or sending it to another system, would require additional nodes connected downstream from this trigger, but based on the current design, the setup for the listening mechanism is complete." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

The prompt is clear: it needs to start manually and then send an email with very specific details.\n\nSo, first things first, a workflow always needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the requirement for a \"manual trigger,\" the obvious choice is the `manualTrigger` node. I'd add one of these right away. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and this one uses `typeVersion 1`. It's perfect because it simply waits for someone to click \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n interface, which aligns perfectly with a \"manual trigger.\" It doesn't really need any specific parameters, it just acts as a kick-off switch, so I'll leave its parameters empty, as the JSON indicates.\n\nNow, what's the core action after triggering? The workflow needs to send an email. For that, n8n has a dedicated node, the `Email Send` node. So, I'll drag and drop an `Email Send` node, which has the type `n8n-nodes-base.emailSend`. This one is also `typeVersion 1`.\n\nHow do these two nodes connect? The `manualTrigger` node is meant to initiate the workflow, and its output should directly feed into the `Email Send` node to tell it to, well, send the email. So, I'll connect the 'main' output of the 'On clicking \\'execute\\'' node to the 'main' input of the 'Send Email' node. This ensures that when the trigger is activated, the email sending process begins immediately after.\n\nNow, let's configure the `Send Email` node because that's where all the specifics of the email itself come in.\n\nThe prompt specified several things for the email:\n* Sender: `user@from.email`\n* Recipient: `user@example.com`\n* Subject: \"n8n rocks!\"\n* Body: \"This is a message to demonstrate the n8n Send Email workflow!\"\n\nSo, I'll go into the parameters for the `Send Email` node.\nFor the `fromEmail` parameter, I'll set it to the designated sender's address.\nThen, for `toEmail`, I'll input the specified recipient's address.\nThe `subject` parameter will be set to \"n8n rocks!\", directly matching the requirement.\nAnd for the `text` parameter, which is the email body, I'll put in \"This is a message to demonstrate the n8n Send Email workflow!\".\n\nThere's also an `options` object within the parameters, and it shows `allowUnauthorizedCerts: false`. This is a good security practice; it means the node will only connect to mail servers with valid SSL certificates, preventing potential man-in-the-middle attacks. If for some reason one needed to connect to a server with a self-signed or otherwise untrusted certificate, this option could be toggled, but generally, keeping it `false` is the secure default.\n\nFinally, for the `Email Send` node to actually *send* an email, it needs to know how to connect to an SMTP server. This isn't configured directly within the node's visible parameters in the UI, but rather through credentials. The JSON indicates `credentials: {\"smtp\": \"your@smtp_creds.here\"}`. This means that a pre-configured SMTP credential entry, containing things like the SMTP host, port, username, and password, would be linked here. This is crucial for the node to authenticate and send the mail. I don't need to specify *what* those credentials are, just acknowledge that this is where a reference to the necessary SMTP connection details would be established for the workflow to function.\n\nAnd that's it. A simple, two-node workflow, manually triggered, sends a very specific email. It directly addresses all parts of the user prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile How to Set Up AI Triggers?\" that starts with a webhook, fetches content from a Google Docs URL, and then responds to the webhook with the retrieved document's content.

This immediately tells me the overall structure: a trigger, an action, and a responder.\n\nSo, the very first node I'd think about adding is the trigger. Since the prompt specifically mentions \"starts with a webhook,\" the choice is clear. I'd add a **Webhook** node. Looking at the JSON, it's of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\"` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is the standard node for receiving HTTP requests, which is exactly what we need to initiate this workflow.\n\nNow, how should this Webhook node be configured? It has a `path` parameter, which is essentially the unique endpoint URL where it will listen for incoming requests. This path would be automatically generated or custom-defined, but I'd ensure it's set up to allow external systems to call it. More importantly for this workflow's goal, the `responseMode` parameter is set to `responseNode`. This is a critical setting. It means that the Webhook node itself isn't going to immediately send a response. Instead, it expects another node further down the workflow (a \"respond to webhook\" node, most likely) to handle the actual HTTP response back to the caller. This setup is perfect for our use case, as we need to perform an action (fetch Google Docs content) *before* responding. If it were set to something like `lastNode` or `onReceived`, the response would be sent immediately or based on the last node, which isn't what we want here.\n\nAlright, the webhook is set up to receive the request. What's next? The prompt says \"fetches content from a Google Docs URL.\" This points directly to a Google Docs integration. So, the next logical step is to add a **Google Docs** node. From the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion: 2`. This node is specifically designed to interact with Google Docs, so it's the perfect fit for our requirement.\n\nConnecting it is straightforward. I'd connect the \"main\" output of the `Webhook` node to the \"main\" input of the `Google Docs` node. This ensures that when the webhook receives a request, the workflow proceeds to fetch the document.\n\nFor the configuration of the `Google Docs` node, the `operation` parameter is key. Since we need to \"fetch content,\" the `get` operation is the most appropriate choice. It's designed to retrieve document content. The node also requires a `documentURL` parameter, which would be the specific URL of the Google Doc we want to retrieve. This is where the workflow would be configured with the exact document to read from. Of course, interacting with Google Docs requires authentication, so there would be credentials linked to this node \u2013 typically a Google OAuth2 API credential \u2013 to allow n8n to access the user's Google Drive and Docs.\n\nSo, at this point, we've received the request, and we've successfully retrieved the content from the specified Google Doc. What's the final piece of the puzzle? The prompt states \"responds to the webhook with the retrieved document's content.\" This means we need a node that can send an HTTP response back to the original caller of our webhook.\n\nThe perfect node for this is the **Respond to Webhook** node. In the JSON, it's `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\"` with `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node works hand-in-hand with the Webhook node when its `responseMode` is set to `responseNode`, exactly as we configured it.\n\nI'd connect the \"main\" output of the `Google Docs` node to the \"main\" input of the `Respond to Webhook` node. This ensures that the response is sent only after the Google Docs content has been successfully fetched.\n\nFor the `Respond to Webhook` node's configuration, we need to tell it what to send back. The `respondWith` parameter is set to `text`, which implies we're sending back plain text, suitable for document content. The most important part here is the `responseBody`. This is configured using an expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression is crucial because it takes the `content` field from the output of the *previous* node (which is our `Google Docs` node) and uses it as the body of the HTTP response. The `Google Docs` node, when performing a `get` operation, typically outputs the document's text content under a field like `content`. So, this configuration ensures that the retrieved document text is sent directly back to the original webhook caller.\n\nAnd that completes the core logic of the workflow. The name of the workflow, \"GetOnboardingFile How to Set Up AI Triggers?\", as well as the tags \"AI Onboarding,\" \"Day 4,\" \"Files,\" and \"Onboarding,\" would be configured in the workflow's overall settings, fulfilling the user's request for how the workflow should be identified and categorized within n8n.

The user wants a workflow named 'Webhook wait set' that starts with a Webhook, waits for 2 seconds, and then finishes with a Set node. This sounds like a fairly straightforward sequential flow.\n\nFirst things first, for a workflow that needs to be triggered by an external event, I immediately think of a trigger node. The prompt specifically mentions starting with a Webhook, so that's my clear starting point. I'll add a **Webhook** node. Looking at the provided JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is the perfect node type for listening for incoming HTTP requests and kicking off the workflow. When I configure it, I'd define a unique path for the webhook URL. The JSON shows a specific UUID for the `path` parameter, like \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\" and also a `webhookId`. These are internal identifiers that n8n uses to expose the unique URL for this specific webhook. No other specific parameters seem to be set for the Webhook node itself beyond its internal identifiers, meaning it's configured to simply receive and pass through whatever payload comes in.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow \"waits for 2 seconds\". This is a very direct instruction, and n8n has a dedicated node for exactly this purpose: the **Wait** node. So, after the Webhook, the logical next step is to connect it to a Wait node. Looking at the JSON, this node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.wait` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is ideal for pausing the execution of the workflow for a specified duration, which is exactly what's required here. When configuring this node, I'd need to set the `amount` and `unit` parameters. The JSON specifies `amount: 2` and `unit: \"seconds\"`, which directly translates to waiting for 2 seconds. This is precisely what the user requested. The connection from the Webhook to the Wait node would be a standard 'main' connection, passing the data received by the Webhook directly into the Wait node.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that the workflow \"finishes with a Set node\". So, once the 2-second wait is over, the data should flow into a **Set** node. From the JSON, this node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 1`. A Set node is incredibly versatile; it allows you to add, modify, or remove data fields on the items as they pass through. In this specific case, the `parameters` for the Set node show an empty `options` object, which implies that it's not actively adding or modifying any specific data fields. It might just be acting as the final processing step, perhaps to ensure a consistent output structure, or it could be a placeholder for future data manipulation. The connection from the Wait node to the Set node would also be a 'main' connection, ensuring that whatever data was present before the wait period, or any data transformed by the wait node (though the wait node usually doesn't transform data, just pauses), is passed along to the Set node for its final processing. And since this is the final node, there would be no outgoing connections from it." } { "prompt": "Generate an active n8n workflow named \"My workflow\" that triggers every minute.

This accurately translates to running once every minute, which is exactly what the user asked for. I'll also give it a descriptive name like \"Schedule Trigger\" to make it clear what its purpose is within the workflow. Its position on the canvas would typically be at the very beginning, perhaps `[0, 0]`, just to keep things organized.\n\nNow that we have our workflow triggering reliably every minute, what's next? The prompt states the workflow \"should then make an HTTP request to `https:\/\/n8n-render-lamachine-xlsi.onrender.com\/healthz`.\" This is a straightforward task for an `HTTP Request` node.\n\nSo, the next logical step is to add an `HTTP Request` node. I'll choose `type: n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` with `typeVersion: 4.2`. This version usually has a good balance of features and stability for making web requests. I'd place it to the right of the `Schedule Trigger` so the flow reads left-to-right, maybe at `[220, 0]`.\n\nFor configuring this `HTTP Request` node, the most important parameter is the URL. Based on the prompt and the JSON, the `parameters.url` should be set to `\"https:\/\/n8n-render-lamachine-xlsi.onrender.com\/healthz\"`. No other specific options were mentioned for the request itself (like method, headers, body, etc.), so keeping the `options` parameter empty `{}` or at its default configuration makes sense. Its name would simply be \"HTTP Request\".\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The `Schedule Trigger` should initiate the `HTTP Request`. So, I'd draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"Schedule Trigger\" node to the `main` input of the \"HTTP Request\" node. This ensures that every time the schedule trigger fires, it sends an item of data (even if it's just an empty item to signal continuation) to the HTTP Request node, causing it to execute. The JSON shows this connection explicitly: `\"Schedule Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This confirms the flow from trigger to request.\n\nBeyond the nodes themselves, the workflow also needs to be `active: true` and named \"My workflow\". These are high-level workflow settings. And, importantly, the workflow needs to be associated with the `Gbessaya-joseph\/n8n_workflows` repository. This information would be stored in the workflow's metadata, specifically `repo_name`, `repo_owner`, and `repo_path`. This is handled at the workflow level, not by individual nodes." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, then sets `voice` to 'af_sarah' and `text` to 'Hello world!'.

The user wants a workflow that kicks off manually, sets a couple of specific text values, uses those values in a Python script, and then reads a binary file.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states \"manually triggers.\" So, the first node I'd reach for is the **Start** node.\n* I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion` 1.\n* This is perfect because it allows the user to click a button in the n8n UI to initiate the workflow, fulfilling the \"manually triggers\" requirement. It doesn't need any special configuration, just its default settings.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"then sets `voice` to 'af_sarah' and `text` to 'Hello world!'.\" This sounds like I need to define some data that will be used later in the workflow. The best node for this is a \"Set\" node, as it allows me to create new data or modify existing data items.\n* So, after the \"Start\" node, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion` 3.4.\n* I'll connect the \"Start\" node's `main` output to this new \"Passing variables\" node's `main` input.\n* For the configuration, I'll set its `mode` to `raw`. This allows me to define a JSON object directly. Inside the `jsonOutput` parameter, I'll put:\n ```json\n {\n \"voice\": \"af_sarah\",\n \"text\": \"Hello world!\"\n }\n ```\n This way, the data is made available for subsequent nodes as part of the workflow's item data, ready to be referenced. This is exactly what the prompt asks for: making these specific variables accessible.\n\nNow, the core of the workflow: \"execute a command to run `python C:\\\\KOKORO\\\\voicegen.py` using these variables and `1` as arguments.\" Running an external command or script is a job for the \"Execute Command\" node.\n* I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.executeCommand` with `typeVersion` 1.\n* This node will receive data from the \"Passing variables\" node, so I'll connect the `main` output of \"Passing variables\" to the `main` input of this new \"Run python script\" node.\n* For the `command` parameter, I need to construct the full command. It's `python C:\\\\KOKORO\\\\voicegen.py`, followed by the `text` variable, then the `voice` variable, and finally the literal `1`.\n* Crucially, I need to use expressions to pull in the values from the previous node. So, the command will look something like this: `=python C:\\\\KOKORO\\\\voicegen.py \\\"{{ $json.text }}\\\" \\\"{{ $json.voice }}\\\" 1`. The `{{ $json.text }}` and `{{ $json.voice }}` parts will dynamically insert the values ('Hello world!' and 'af_sarah') that were set by the \"Passing variables\" node. The quotes around the variables are important to ensure they are passed as distinct arguments, especially if they contain spaces.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"finally, read the binary file `D:\/output.mp3`.\" After the Python script presumably generates this MP3 file, I need to read it into n8n. The \"Read Binary Files\" node is precisely what's needed for this.\n* I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFiles` with `typeVersion` 1.\n* This node will come after the \"Execute Command\" node, as it needs the command to have run first to produce the file. So, I'll connect the `main` output of \"Run python script\" to the `main` input of this new \"Play sound\" node.\n* The only configuration needed here is the `fileSelector` parameter. I'll simply enter `D:\/output.mp3`. This tells n8n where to find the file that the Python script is expected to have generated. The `alwaysOutputData` is set to `false`, which is the default and typically fine for this purpose; it just means it won't force output if, for example, the file wasn't found (though in a successful run, it should be there).\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the requirements! It follows a clear, linear path: trigger, set data, use data in a command, then read the resulting file. Each node serves a specific, necessary purpose in this sequence." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a Webhook node configured for path \"webhook\", returning \"allEntries\" with \"lastNode\" response mode.

This is my first indication of what kind of node I need to begin with. A Webhook node is a fantastic choice for a trigger when you want an external system to initiate your workflow by sending an HTTP request. It's event-driven, which is very efficient.\n\nSo, I'd bring in a **Webhook** node. Looking at the provided JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is a standard trigger node that will provide an endpoint for external systems to call.\n\nNow, how should this Webhook be configured? The prompt specifies quite a bit.\n* It needs to be configured for `path \"webhook\"`. This means the URL for triggering this workflow will end with `\/webhook`. So, within the `parameters` of the Webhook node, I'd set the `path` to `\"webhook\"`.\n* It also needs to return `\"allEntries\"` with `\"lastNode\"` response mode. This tells me how the webhook should behave after the workflow executes.\n * `responseData: \"allEntries\"` means that the Webhook will return all the data items that passed through the workflow, not just the last one. This is useful if subsequent nodes produce multiple outputs and the caller needs to see all of them.\n * `responseMode: \"lastNode\"` means the Webhook will wait for the very last node in the workflow to finish processing and will then use the output of that final node to construct its response. This is often desired for workflows where the ultimate output of the entire chain is what the caller needs to receive.\n * The `options` parameter is an empty object `{}` in the JSON, indicating no special options like authentication or HTTP method restrictions are explicitly set beyond the defaults. This is fine for a basic setup.\n\nSo, I have my trigger in place, ready to receive incoming requests.\n\nWhat's next? The prompt says, \"Connect it to a Google Sheets node set to read the range \"Problems!A:D\" from the sheet ID \"17fzSFl1BZ1njldTfp5lvh8HtS0-pNXH66b7qGZIiGRU\".\"\n\nThis immediately tells me I need an action node that interacts with Google Sheets. I'll add a **Google Sheets** node. From the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is specifically designed to perform operations like reading, writing, and updating data in Google Sheets. It's the perfect tool for this task. I wouldn't consider, say, an HTTP Request node here because the Google Sheets node abstracts away all the complexities of the Google Sheets API, making it much simpler to use.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Google Sheets node?\n* The prompt states it should \"read the range \"Problems!A:D\"\". So, within the `parameters`, I'd set the `range` property to `\"Problems!A:D\"`. This specifies exactly which cells from the sheet we want to pull data from.\n* It also specifies the `sheetId`: `\"17fzSFl1BZ1njldTfp5lvh8HtS0-pNXH66b7qGZIiGRU\"`. This is the unique identifier for the specific Google Sheet document we want to interact with. I'd input this value into the `sheetId` parameter.\n* Again, the `options` parameter is an empty object `{}`, meaning no additional read options (like returning raw values or formatted values) are specified beyond the defaults.\n* Crucially, for any Google Sheets operation, credentials are required. The JSON shows `\"credentials\": {\"googleApi\": \"\"}`. This means a Google API credential would need to be configured here, which would handle the authentication and authorization to access the specified Google Sheet. The exact credential would depend on the user's Google account setup, but it's essential for the node to function correctly.\n\nFinally, let's think about the connection. The prompt explicitly says to \"Connect it to a Google Sheets node\". This is straightforward. The `connections` object in the JSON confirms this: `{\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Sheets\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the primary output of the Webhook node (its \"main\" output) should feed directly into the primary input of the Google Sheets node (its \"main\" input, at index 0).\n\nThe data flow here would be: An external system sends a request to the Webhook URL. The Webhook node receives it, acts as the trigger, and passes its input (if any, from the incoming request body\/headers) down the workflow. The Google Sheets node then activates, using its configured sheet ID and range to read data from the specified Google Sheet. Since the Webhook's `responseMode` is `lastNode` and `responseData` is `allEntries`, the workflow will execute, the Google Sheets node will fetch its data, and then the Webhook will take that data from the Google Sheets node and send it back as the HTTP response to the original caller. This setup effectively allows an external system to trigger a read operation on a Google Sheet and receive the sheet's content directly as the response." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named \"MessageBird:Sms:send:Balance:get\" that, upon starting, concurrently retrieves the MessageBird account balance and sends a test SMS from \"4930270504079\" to \"4930270504079\" with the message \"TestMessage\"; all MessageBird operations should use \"MessageBird creds\" (ID 61).", "json": "{\"name\": \"MessageBird:Sms:send:Balance:get\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Start\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.start\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"balance\"}, \"name\": \"MessageBird\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.messageBird\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 240]}, {\"parameters\": {\"originator\": \"4930270504079 \", \"recipients\": \"4930270504079 \", \"message\": \"TestMessage\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"MessageBird1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.messageBird\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 400]}], \"connections\": {\"Start\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"MessageBird\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}, {\"node\": \"MessageBird1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed.\n\nFirst off, the request specifies creating an *inactive* workflow named \"MessageBird:Sms:send:Balance:get\". So, the very first thing I'd do is set up the basic workflow shell with that exact name and ensure its active status is set to `false`. That way, it won't run until it's explicitly enabled.\n\nNow, every n8n workflow needs a starting point. Since the prompt talks about the workflow \"upon starting\" and doesn't specify a schedule or a webhook, a simple `Start` node is the perfect fit. So, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.start` with `typeVersion 1`. This node simply acts as the initial trigger for the workflow when it's manually executed or otherwise initiated. It doesn't require any specific configuration; its purpose is just to kick things off.\n\nThe core of this workflow involves two distinct MessageBird operations that need to happen *concurrently*: retrieving the account balance and sending an SMS. To achieve concurrency directly from the `Start` node, I'll need to branch the execution. This means I'll connect the `Start` node to two separate MessageBird nodes.\n\nLet's tackle the first MessageBird operation: retrieving the account balance.\nI'll add a new node, and since it's a MessageBird operation, the `MessageBird` node is the obvious choice. So, this node will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.messageBird` with `typeVersion 1`. This node is specifically designed to interact with the MessageBird API. To get the account balance, I'd configure its parameters. The key parameter here is `resource`, which I would set to \"balance\". This tells the MessageBird node exactly what information to fetch from the MessageBird API. For authentication, the prompt specifies \"MessageBird creds\" with ID 61. So, I'd ensure the `credentials` field for this node points to that specific MessageBird API credential. This keeps the actual API key secure and reusable across different nodes.\n\nNext, for the second concurrent MessageBird operation: sending a test SMS.\nI'll add another `MessageBird` node, separate from the first one. This will also be of type `n8n-nodes-base.messageBird` with `typeVersion 1`. This allows us to perform a different MessageBird action. For sending an SMS, I need to specify the sender, recipient, and the message content. The prompt explicitly gives these values:\n* `originator` would be set to \"4930270504079\".\n* `recipients` would also be set to \"4930270504079\".\n* And the `message` parameter would be set to \"TestMessage\".\nThere are also `additionalFields`, but for this simple SMS, they are not needed so I'd leave them empty. Crucially, this SMS node also needs to authenticate with MessageBird, so I'd ensure it uses the *same* \"MessageBird creds\" (ID 61) as the balance retrieval node. This ensures both operations use the correct authentication without duplicating sensitive data.\n\nNow, for the connections. As I mentioned, both MessageBird operations need to run concurrently from the start. So, I'll take the `main` output of the `Start` node and connect it to *both* MessageBird nodes. This means when the `Start` node finishes its execution, it will pass control to both the \"MessageBird\" (balance) node and the \"MessageBird1\" (SMS) node simultaneously. This parallel connection is what achieves the requested concurrency, allowing both the balance retrieval and the SMS sending to happen at roughly the same time, without one waiting for the other." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"`\\u231a[FABRICIO NUNNES][Banco de Dados] - Busca ou Insere Assinatura`\".

How does this workflow begin? The user prompt clearly states it should be \"triggered by a webhook at `\/add-subscription-bd`\". This immediately tells me I need a Webhook node as my starting point.\n\nLooking at the provided JSON, I see a node named \"fluxo_chamado\" which is of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\"` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is exactly what I need. I'd place this node down first. I would then configure its `path` parameter to `\/add-subscription-bd`, matching the requirement. This ensures that the workflow listens for incoming HTTP requests at that specific endpoint. The prompt also mentions it receives `id_conversao`, `id_produto`, `data_conversao`, and `data_expiracao` in its body. This Webhook node will automatically parse the JSON body of the incoming request, making these values accessible to subsequent nodes. The `responseMode` is set to \"lastNode\", which is a common choice when you want the webhook to respond with the final output of the workflow execution path.\n\nOnce the webhook receives the data, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"call a MySQL stored procedure `busca_assinatura` using these values.\" This means I'll need a database interaction node, specifically for MySQL.\n\nScanning the available nodes in the JSON, I find \"executa_procedure,\" which has `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.mySql\"` and `typeVersion: 2.4`. This is the perfect fit. I would then connect the `fluxo_chamado` (Webhook) node's `main` output to the `executa_procedure` (MySQL) node's `main` input. This establishes the sequential flow of data, ensuring that the information received by the webhook is passed directly to the MySQL node for processing.\n\nNow, configuring this MySQL node is crucial. The `operation` parameter is set to \"executeQuery\", which is the correct choice for executing a stored procedure or any custom SQL query. The `query` parameter is where the magic happens for calling the stored procedure. It's configured as:\n`CALL busca_assinatura({{ $node[\\\"fluxo_chamado\\\"].json[\\\"body\\\"][\\\"id_conversao\\\"] }}, {{ $node[\\\"fluxo_chamado\\\"].json[\\\"body\\\"][\\\"id_produto\\\"] }}, '{{ $node[\\\"fluxo_chamado\\\"].json[\\\"body\\\"][\\\"data_conversao\\\"] }}', '{{ $node[\\\"fluxo_chamado\\\"].json[\\\"body\\\"][\\\"data_expiracao\\\"] }}');`\nHere, I'm using expressions to dynamically pull the required values directly from the body of the data received by the \"fluxo_chamado\" (Webhook) node. Notice how `id_conversao` and `id_produto` are passed directly without quotes, implying they are numerical. However, `data_conversao` and `data_expiracao` are enclosed in single quotes. This is important because these are likely date or string values, and SQL requires string\/date literals to be quoted for correct interpretation. This setup ensures that the stored procedure `busca_assinatura` receives the correct data types for its parameters. For credentials, a pre-existing MySQL credential, here named \"[MySQL] - Fabricio Nunnes\", would be selected to allow the node to connect to the database.\n\nFinally, the prompt states the workflow \"finally connects to a 'Limit' node.\" After the MySQL procedure call, I need a concluding step.\n\nLooking at the JSON, the last node is simply \"Limit\", which is of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.limit\"` with `typeVersion: 1`. I would connect the `executa_procedure` (MySQL) node's `main` output to this `Limit` node's `main` input. This node, while not performing any complex data manipulation here (as its parameters are empty `{}`), serves as the endpoint of the workflow's main execution path. It acts as a clear final step, and since the webhook's `responseMode` is set to `lastNode`, the output of this Limit node would implicitly be the response sent back by the webhook, completing the request-response cycle." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON starting with a `manualTrigger` node.

The prompt gives us a clear starting point and several specific nodes to include, along with their connections.\n\nFirst off, every workflow needs a trigger, right? Something to kick things off. The prompt specifically asks for a `manualTrigger` node. So, I'll definitely start there. A `manualTrigger` node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1` is perfect for this. Its purpose is quite straightforward: it allows a user to manually initiate the workflow, typically by clicking \"Test workflow\" in the n8n UI. This is great for testing or for workflows that aren't meant to run on a schedule or react to an external event, but rather are run on demand. I don't need to configure much for this; its default parameters are usually fine, as its job is just to pass on an empty item to get the flow going.\n\nOkay, so we have our trigger. What's next? The prompt says the `manualTrigger` should connect to a `set` node named \"Edit Fields\". A `set` node, type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, is incredibly useful when you need to manipulate the data flowing through the workflow. It's often used to add new fields, modify existing ones, or even remove fields from the incoming data items. The prompt specifies `typeVersion 3.2` for this `set` node, which tells me it's a specific iteration of the node's functionality \u2013 usually, newer versions have improved features or bug fixes. I'll connect the `manualTrigger`'s 'main' output to the 'main' input of this \"Edit Fields\" node. For configuration, typically you'd define rules here for what data to set or unset. Since no specific data manipulation is requested beyond the node's presence, I'll leave its internal parameters as default, but in a real-world scenario, this is where you'd define the fields to edit.\n\nFollowing \"Edit Fields\", the prompt specifies another `set` node, this one named \"Edit Fields1\". Again, it's a `set` node of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and also `typeVersion 3.2`. It makes sense to connect this node directly to the output of the first \"Edit Fields\" node. So, the 'main' output of \"Edit Fields\" will feed into the 'main' input of \"Edit Fields1\". Why two `set` nodes in a row? Well, sometimes you need to perform multiple distinct transformations on your data, or maybe the data needs to be structured in stages. For instance, the first `set` node might be for general cleanup, and the second for adding specific derived fields. Or, it could simply be to demonstrate a sequence of data manipulation steps. Like the previous `set` node, its parameters would typically involve defining the data transformations, but we'll keep them default for this exercise as the prompt doesn't specify any actual data to set.\n\nNow, we've handled the connected flow: `manualTrigger` to \"Edit Fields\" to \"Edit Fields1\". But the prompt has another interesting requirement: two unconnected nodes with unique, non-existent types. This is a bit unusual for a functional workflow, but it's important to include them exactly as requested.\n\nSo, I need to add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist` with `typeVersion 1`. I'll place it somewhere on the canvas, ensuring it has no incoming or outgoing connections, as specified. It won't actually do anything in a running workflow because `n8n` wouldn't recognize the node type, but it fulfills the requirement.\n\nSimilarly, I'll add another node of type `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither`, also with `typeVersion 1`. This one also needs to be unconnected, sitting by itself on the canvas. These \"unknown\" nodes are just placeholders for the prompt's specific request. They don't contribute to the data flow or logic of the workflow; they're simply present as per the instructions.\n\nThat seems to cover all the requirements from the prompt: the trigger, the two connected `set` nodes in sequence, and the two standalone, non-existent nodes. The connections are straightforward 'main' to 'main' outputs." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, which then connects to a Wordpress node configured to perform the \"getAll\" operation using the \"wp_creds\" credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\"}, \"name\": \"Wordpress\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wordpress\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wordpress\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. My goal here is to create an n8n workflow that can be manually triggered and then interact with a WordPress site to fetch data. I've got the final JSON structure, so I'll be working backward from that, explaining the design decisions as if I'm building it from scratch.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need to think about is the trigger. The prompt clearly states it should start with a \"manual trigger\". Looking at the JSON, I see a node defined as `\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"`. This is perfect, exactly what's needed. I'd place this as my starting point in the workflow canvas. It's named \"On clicking 'execute'\" in the JSON, which is a pretty descriptive default name for a manual trigger. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, indicating it's a standard, stable version of this basic trigger node. I'd choose this node because it gives me full control to run the workflow whenever I need to, which is great for testing or for processes that aren't scheduled but need to be initiated on demand. There are no specific parameters to configure for a simple manual trigger, so it just sits there, waiting for me to hit the \"execute workflow\" button.\n\nNow, once that trigger fires, what's next? The prompt states it needs to connect to a \"Wordpress node\" to perform an operation. My immediate thought is, \"Okay, I need something that can talk to WordPress.\" And sure enough, the JSON shows `\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wordpress\"`. This is exactly the node I'd reach for. I'd drag it onto the canvas, probably to the right of my manual trigger, to indicate the flow of execution. This node, like the manual trigger, is `typeVersion: 1`, which is the current standard.\n\nNext up, I need to connect these two nodes. The manual trigger needs to pass its signal to the WordPress node to tell it to do its work. Looking at the connections in the JSON, it shows `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wordpress\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This tells me that the primary output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node (the `main` output) should connect directly to the primary input of the \"Wordpress\" node (the `main` input). This is a standard, straightforward connection. The manual trigger essentially sends a single item of data (or an empty item, depending on its exact implementation, but it's enough to trigger the next node) to the WordPress node, telling it to go ahead and execute its configured operation.\n\nNow for the crucial part: configuring the WordPress node itself. The prompt specifies two things: \"perform the \"getAll\" operation\" and \"using the \"wp_creds\" credentials\".\n\nFirst, the operation. The JSON has `\"operation\": \"getAll\"`. This tells me that this WordPress node isn't going to create a new post, update a page, or delete anything specific. Instead, it's configured to retrieve *all* available items of a certain type from WordPress. What \"all\" refers to specifically (posts, pages, custom post types) often depends on default settings or further options within the node, but for a general \"getAll\", it's usually designed to fetch a comprehensive list of the primary content type, like posts. This is a common requirement for, say, backing up content, or analyzing all existing content.\n\nSecond, the credentials. The JSON states `\"credentials\": {\"wordpressApi\": \"wp_creds\"}`. This is incredibly important. The WordPress node needs to authenticate with the WordPress site it's trying to interact with. Instead of embedding sensitive information directly into the workflow (which would be a terrible security practice), n8n uses a concept of \"credentials\" that are stored separately. So, \"wp_creds\" is simply a name I've given to a pre-configured set of WordPress API credentials. This would typically involve things like the WordPress site URL, and some form of authentication (like application passwords or basic authentication details). By referencing \"wp_creds\" here, I'm telling the node, \"Use the authentication details stored under this name to connect to WordPress.\" This keeps the workflow secure and portable, as the actual sensitive data isn't exposed in the workflow definition itself.\n\nSo, to summarize my thinking process here: start with the trigger as specified, which is a manual one for on-demand execution. Then, since I need to interact with WordPress, I'd bring in the dedicated WordPress node. Connect them simply, letting the trigger signal the WordPress node to start. Finally, configure the WordPress node to fetch all items, using a pre-saved credential set for secure authentication. That looks like a complete and sensible workflow according to the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that uses an Asana Trigger node to receive updates for 'Tweets' within the 'Engineering' workspace, authenticating with 'asana' credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Receive updates when an event occurs in Asana\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"Tweets\", \"workspace\": \"Engineering\"}, \"name\": \"Asana-Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.asanaTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1490, 860]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think through building this n8n workflow from scratch. The user's request is quite specific: they want to receive updates for 'Tweets' within the 'Engineering' workspace in Asana, using a specific set of credentials.\n\nThe very first thing that comes to mind when I hear \"receive updates\" from an external service like Asana is that we're going to need a trigger. A trigger node is what starts a workflow based on an event happening somewhere else.\n\nSo, my immediate thought is, \"Okay, we need an Asana trigger.\" There's typically a dedicated trigger node for popular services like Asana. I'd search for \"Asana Trigger\" in the node list.\n\nUpon finding it, I'd drag the `Asana Trigger` node onto the canvas. Looking at the provided JSON, this node has a `type` of `n8n-nodes-base.asanaTrigger` and a `typeVersion` of `1`. This means I'm using the standard, base Asana Trigger node, version 1. It's the right choice because its entire purpose is to listen for events in Asana and initiate a workflow.\n\nNow, once I have the node on the canvas, I need to configure it to match the user's requirements.\n\nFirst, I need to tell it *what* to listen for. The prompt states \"updates for 'Tweets'\". In Asana, \"Tweets\" isn't a standard resource like \"tasks\" or \"projects.\" It implies that \"Tweets\" is either a custom object type the user has defined, a specific type of task, or perhaps a tag or project they are tracking. The JSON confirms this by setting the `resource` parameter to \"Tweets\". So, I'd go into the node's parameters and set the 'Resource' field to `Tweets`. This tells n8n exactly what kind of Asana item we're interested in monitoring.\n\nNext, the user specified \"within the 'Engineering' workspace.\" Asana often has multiple workspaces or organizations, and it's crucial to narrow down where we're listening for events. The JSON shows the `workspace` parameter is set to \"Engineering\". So, I'd configure the 'Workspace' field in the Asana Trigger node's settings, selecting \"Engineering\" from the available workspaces (or typing it in if it's a specific ID or name). This ensures that we're only triggering the workflow for updates related to \"Tweets\" *inside* that particular \"Engineering\" workspace, avoiding irrelevant events from other areas of Asana.\n\nFinally, the node needs to authenticate with Asana. The prompt says \"authenticating with 'asana' credentials.\" The JSON confirms this by specifying `credentials: {\"asanaApi\": \"asana\"}`. This means there's a pre-existing credential set named \"asana\" in n8n that holds the necessary API key or OAuth token to connect to Asana. I would select this \"asana\" credential from the dropdown in the node's settings. This is a crucial step because without proper authentication, the Asana Trigger wouldn't be able to connect to Asana, set up the webhook, or receive any updates.\n\nSince this is a trigger node, it sits at the beginning of the workflow. It doesn't receive input from any previous nodes. Looking at the JSON, there are no `connections` defined, which makes sense for a single trigger node that's designed just to *receive* data. It's the starting point.\n\nThe workflow's name, according to the JSON, is \"Receive updates when an event occurs in Asana,\" which perfectly describes the function of this single Asana Trigger node. The `active: false` just means it's not currently running, which is a state the user would change when they're ready to deploy it. The `webhookId` is something n8n generates when the workflow is activated and the webhook is registered with Asana, so I wouldn't be configuring that manually during the design phase.\n\nAnd that's it. This single `Asana Trigger` node, configured for the \"Tweets\" resource in the \"Engineering\" workspace, using the \"asana\" credentials, fulfills all the requirements of the user's prompt as reflected in the provided JSON. It's a straightforward setup for simply listening for specific events." } { "prompt": "Create an active n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile What are Automation Triggers?\" that triggers via a webhook, fetches the content of the Google Docs document at `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/16HYBXMs280tjZ6LgvEfadCpN31PBOtEQNfjjbB75D7s\/view`, and then responds to the webhook with that retrieved text content.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFile What are Automation Triggers?\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"ad94d93c-ed85-4366-a496-317127b44755\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/16HYBXMs280tjZ6LgvEfadCpN31PBOtEQNfjjbB75D7s\/view\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's design this workflow step by step, thinking through each decision as we go.\n\nFirst off, looking at the user's prompt, the goal is pretty clear: we need a workflow that starts with a webhook, grabs some content from a Google Doc, and then sends that content right back as the webhook response. The workflow also needs a specific name: \"GetOnboardingFile What are Automation Triggers?\", and it should be active from the get-go. So, that's our overarching goal.\n\nThinking about the very first step, if the workflow is supposed to \"trigger via a webhook,\" then naturally, the first thing we need is a node that can *receive* a webhook call. For that, the obvious choice is the **Webhook node**. Looking at the JSON, it's `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 2`, which is a solid, standard choice for initiating workflows via an external HTTP request. I'd drag that onto the canvas as our starting point.\n\nNow, how should we configure this Webhook node? The prompt specifically mentions that the workflow should \"respond to the webhook with that retrieved text content.\" This tells me we won't be setting the `responseMode` directly on the Webhook node to \"Last node in workflow,\" or \"When last node finishes\" which would automatically send the output of the final node. Instead, we'll need a dedicated \"Respond to Webhook\" node later on. So, for this Webhook node, I'd set its `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This makes sure the workflow waits for an explicit \"Respond to Webhook\" node to send back the reply, giving us full control over the response content and timing. The `path` parameter would be set up by n8n to generate a unique URL, which is how external systems would call this specific webhook.\n\nAlright, so the webhook is set up to receive the call. What's next? The core task is to \"fetch the content of the Google Docs document.\" This immediately points us towards the **Google Docs node**. So, I'd connect this new Google Docs node directly from the Webhook node. This means as soon as the webhook receives a request, the Google Docs operation will kick off. Looking at the JSON, it's `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is perfect for interacting with Google Docs.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Google Docs node? We need to \"fetch the content,\" which translates to an `operation`. So, I'd select `get` as the operation. And, of course, it needs to know *which* document to get the content from. There would be a `documentURL` parameter where the specific URL of the Google Doc would be provided. For credentials, this node will need an authenticated connection to Google Docs, likely via an OAuth2 API credential, which would be set up separately and then selected here. This connection is essential for the workflow to have the necessary permissions to access the specified document.\n\nSo far, we have the webhook receiving the call, and the Google Docs node fetching the document content. The Google Docs node will output the content of the document, probably in a field like `content` or similar, along with other metadata about the document.\n\nFinally, the prompt states, \"and then responds to the webhook with that retrieved text content.\" This is where our last node comes in: the **Respond to Webhook node**. I'd connect this node directly from the Google Docs node. This ensures that the response is only sent *after* the Google Docs content has been successfully retrieved. The node type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node is specifically designed for sending back a response to the original webhook caller when the initial Webhook node was configured with `responseMode: \"responseNode\"`.\n\nConfiguring this \"Respond to Webhook\" node is crucial. The prompt says \"retrieved text content,\" so I'd make sure the `respondWith` parameter is set to `text`. And for the `responseBody`, this is where we need to dynamically pull the content fetched by the Google Docs node. Assuming the Google Docs node outputs the document's text content in a field named `content` within its JSON output, the correct expression would be `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression takes the `content` property from the JSON output of the previous node (our Google Docs node) and uses it as the body of the text response.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It starts, fetches, and responds, perfectly matching the requirements. The workflow is active, as specified, and carries the correct name for easy identification." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that automatically creates an Onfleet task whenever a new fulfillment is created in Shopify.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Creating an Onfleet Task for a new Shopify Fulfillment\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"topic\": \"fulfillments\/create\"}, \"name\": \"Shopify Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.shopifyTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [240, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"create\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Onfleet\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.onfleet\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 440]}], \"connections\": {\"Shopify Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Onfleet\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start conceptualizing this workflow from the ground up, just like we're sitting down to design it. The core request is clear: automatically create an Onfleet task whenever a new fulfillment is created in Shopify.\n\nFirst things first, we need a way to detect that \"new fulfillment\" event in Shopify. For any automation involving an external service triggering our workflow, a \"trigger\" node is typically the best starting point. Shopify offers webhooks for various events, and n8n has a dedicated Shopify Trigger node. This seems like the most straightforward and real-time way to capture that event.\n\nSo, the very first node I'd place on our canvas would be the **Shopify Trigger** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.shopifyTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Why this node?** It's specifically designed to integrate with Shopify and listen for events. It acts as a webhook listener, meaning Shopify will proactively send data to our workflow when an event occurs, rather than us having to constantly poll Shopify for updates. This is efficient and ensures immediate task creation.\n* **Configuration:**\n * The most critical parameter for this node is the `topic`. To achieve our goal of detecting *new fulfillments*, we need to set the `topic` to `'fulfillments\/create'`. This tells the Shopify Trigger node to specifically listen for events where a fulfillment has been created. If we were interested in, say, order creation or product updates, we'd choose a different topic, but `fulfillments\/create` perfectly matches our requirement.\n * For credentials, we would, of course, need to link this node to an existing Shopify API credential. This ensures our n8n instance has the necessary authorization to communicate with and receive webhooks from our Shopify store.\n\nOnce a new fulfillment is created in Shopify, the Shopify Trigger node will capture all the details about that fulfillment. This data, including information about the order, the items being fulfilled, and the shipping address, will be the output of our first node, ready to be passed on.\n\nNow that we have the data about the new fulfillment, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"create an Onfleet task.\" This immediately tells me we'll need an Onfleet integration. n8n provides a dedicated Onfleet node for this purpose.\n\nSo, connecting directly from our Shopify Trigger, the next node would be the **Onfleet** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.onfleet`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Why this node?** This node provides the necessary actions to interact with the Onfleet API, including creating tasks, managing drivers, and more. It's the direct tool for our second step.\n* **Connection:** This node will receive the output from the Shopify Trigger. The main connection type is suitable here, flowing the fulfillment data directly.\n* **Configuration:**\n * The primary parameter here is the `operation`. To create a task, we'd set this `operation` to `'create'`. This tells the Onfleet node that its purpose in this workflow is to create a new entity within Onfleet. While Onfleet can create various entities (tasks, drivers, etc.), given the context, `'create'` here is implicitly for creating a task.\n * We also see an `additionalFields` object. In a real-world scenario, this is where we'd dynamically map the data from the Shopify fulfillment (which we received from the Shopify Trigger node) to populate the details of the Onfleet task. For example, we'd extract the customer's shipping address, name, phone number, and perhaps order notes or item details, and map them to Onfleet's task fields like `destination`, `recipientName`, `recipientPhone`, `notes`, etc. Since the provided JSON has an empty `additionalFields` object, it implies that the task would be created with minimal or default information, but typically this section is crucial for passing all necessary details for a complete and useful Onfleet task.\n * Just like with Shopify, this node requires credentials. We'd link it to an existing Onfleet API Key credential, ensuring our n8n workflow can authenticate and send requests to the Onfleet API.\n\nAnd that's effectively the entire workflow. The Shopify Trigger listens, captures the fulfillment details, and then passes them directly to the Onfleet node, which uses that information to create a new task. It's a simple, two-step automation, directly addressing the user's prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then triggers a Travis CI build, specifying the 'travisCI' credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [510, 350]}, {\"parameters\": {\"slug\": \"\", \"branch\": \"\", \"operation\": \"trigger\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"TravisCI\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.travisCi\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [710, 350]}], \"connections\": {\"TravisCI\": {\"main\": [[]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"TravisCI\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow designed from the ground up.\n\nThe user's request is quite clear: a workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then initiates a build in Travis CI, specifically using certain credentials. This gives me a good roadmap.\n\nFirst off, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly says \"starts with a manual trigger.\" So, the most intuitive and direct choice for this is the **Manual Trigger** node. I'd drag that onto the canvas right away.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n\nThis node is perfect because its sole purpose is to allow a user to manually initiate the workflow with a click. It doesn't require any complex setup for its basic function, which is why its `parameters` object is empty in the JSON \u2013 it's ready to go as soon as it's added. I wouldn't expect a different `typeVersion` to drastically change its core behavior of being a manual start point, perhaps just internal optimizations or minor UI changes.\n\nNext, after the workflow is manually triggered, the goal is to \"trigger a Travis CI build.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can interact with the Travis CI API. Browsing through the available n8n nodes, the **TravisCI** node is the obvious fit.\n\nI'll place this node right after the Manual Trigger, as it's the direct next step in the sequence of operations.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.travisCi`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n\nNow, for configuring this TravisCI node. The core action is to \"trigger a build.\"\nLooking at the `parameters` for the TravisCI node in the JSON, I see `operation: \"trigger\"`. This confirms my choice for the node's action \u2013 it's set up to perform exactly what the user requested.\n\nTo trigger a build, Travis CI needs to know *which* repository to build and potentially *which branch*.\nThe JSON shows `slug: \"\"` and `branch: \"\"`. This means that during the actual implementation, the user would need to fill these in. The `slug` typically identifies the repository in the format `owner\/repository-name` (e.g., `my-org\/my-project`), and `branch` would be the specific branch like `main` or `develop`. Since they are empty, it means the workflow is designed to *allow* these to be specified, but they haven't been provided in this blueprint.\n\nThere's also an `additionalFields` object, which is empty. This is where you'd typically add any extra, less common parameters that the Travis CI API might accept for triggering a build, like custom environment variables or a specific commit SHA. Being empty simply means no such extra configurations are being applied in this particular setup.\n\nFinally, and crucially, the prompt specified \"specifying the 'travisCI' credentials.\" Looking at the `credentials` object within the TravisCI node, it has `{\"travisCiApi\": \"travisCI\"}`. This is where the magic happens for authentication. `travisCiApi` indicates the type of credential, and `\"travisCI\"` is the *name* of the credential set that would have been pre-configured in n8n's credentials section. This credential set would contain the actual API key or token required to authenticate with Travis CI, ensuring that n8n has the necessary permissions to trigger builds on behalf of the user. I wouldn't know the actual API key from this JSON, nor should I.\n\nWith both nodes in place and configured (or understood how they *would* be configured), I need to connect them. The `manualTrigger` node's purpose is to start the workflow and pass execution to the next node. So, I'd draw a connection from the `manualTrigger` node's `main` output to the `travisCi` node's `main` input. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, the workflow proceeds directly to execute the Travis CI build action. The `travisCi` node itself has a `main` output, but in this simple scenario, it's not connected to anything, indicating it's the final step of this particular workflow chain." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with instance ID \"123\" that starts with a manual trigger.

My goal is to build a workflow that responds to a manual trigger and then interacts with the n8n API to manage a specific credential resource.\n\nFirst off, I see the workflow needs an `instanceId` of \"123\", which I'll set right at the top in the `meta` section. This is a general workflow setting, not specific to any node, but important for its identity within the n8n system.\n\nNow, let's think about the actual nodes. The prompt clearly states that the workflow \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This makes my first node choice very straightforward. I'll definitely need a `manualTrigger` node.\n\nSo, I'd drag a `Manual Trigger` node onto the canvas. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` will be `1`. Why this node? It's the simplest way to initiate a workflow for testing purposes or for a one-off execution when a more complex, automated trigger isn't required. It just sits there, waiting for someone to click the \"Test workflow\" button, and then it sends a single item to the next node to kick things off. Looking at the JSON, its name is \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", which is its default helpful name. No specific parameters are needed for this node; it just does its job of starting the flow.\n\nNext, the prompt says, \"This trigger should connect to an n8n node configured to manage a credential resource...\" This tells me I need a node that can interact with the n8n system itself. The `n8n` node, specifically designed for n8n's own API, is the perfect candidate here.\n\nSo, I'd bring in an `n8n` node. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.n8n` and its `typeVersion` will be `1`. This node is crucial because it allows me to programmatically manage various resources within n8n, such as workflows, credentials, or users.\n\nNow, how do I configure this `n8n` node? The prompt gives me very specific instructions:\n1. It needs to \"manage a credential resource.\" So, under the `Parameters` for this node, I'll set the `resource` field to `credential`. This tells the n8n node that its operation will be focused on credential management.\n2. It specifies the credential is \"named \"123\"\". This means I need to set the `name` parameter for the credential resource to \"123\". This will help target the correct credential.\n3. It also specifies \"of type \"123\"\". This translates directly to the `credentialTypeName` parameter, which I'll set to \"123\". This is important for identifying the specific kind of credential.\n\nFinally, for the `n8n` node, the prompt mentions \"using an n8n API credential named \"n8n account\".\" This tells me that this node needs to be authenticated to interact with the n8n API. So, in the `credentials` section of this node, I'll select an `n8nApi` credential. The prompt specifically names it \"n8n account\", so I'd link it to that pre-existing credential configuration. This credential would contain the necessary API key or authentication details to securely connect to the n8n API.\n\nNow that both nodes are selected and configured, I need to connect them. The prompt states, \"This trigger should connect to an n8n node.\" This is a straightforward connection. I'll take the `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` node and connect it to the `main` input of the `n8n` node. This means that once the manual trigger is activated, it will pass its (likely empty) data payload to the `n8n` node, allowing the `n8n` node to then execute its configured operation of managing the credential resource. The data flow here is sequential; the `n8n` node simply waits for the `manualTrigger` to tell it to start.\n\nThat seems to cover all the requirements from the prompt and matches the structure and configuration shown in the provided JSON.

The user explicitly asked for a \"manual trigger.\" This tells me I'll need a node that allows the user to initiate the workflow execution themselves, typically by clicking a button in the n8n interface.\n\nSo, for the starting point, I'll definitely go with the `Manual Trigger` node.\nIts type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect for kickstarting a workflow when you don't need it to run on a schedule or react to an external event; you just want to run it on demand. Configuring it is usually straightforward; there aren't many parameters for a basic manual trigger, which is great. I'd place it at a good starting position on the canvas, let's say `[250, 300]`.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt says, \"retrieves the details of a Disqus forum.\" This immediately tells me I'll need an integration with Disqus. n8n has a dedicated `Disqus` node, which is exactly what we're looking for to interact with the Disqus API.\n\nSo, the next node will be the `Disqus` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.disqus`, and it's also `typeVersion: 1`. This node is designed to handle various operations within Disqus, and retrieving forum details sounds like one of its capabilities. I'd position it logically after the trigger, perhaps at `[450, 300]` to the right of the trigger.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The `Manual Trigger` doesn't output any specific data that the `Disqus` node needs for its operation; its main purpose is just to signal \"start.\" So, a simple `main` connection from the `Manual Trigger` to the `Disqus` node's `main` input will suffice. This just tells the `Disqus` node, \"Hey, it's your turn to run!\"\n\nNext, let's think about the configuration of the `Disqus` node. The prompt specifies, \"The forum's ID should be set to \"hackernoon\".\" This is crucial. Looking at the Disqus node's parameters, I'd expect to find an \"ID\" field or similar where I can input the specific forum identifier. The JSON confirms this with `parameters\": {\"id\": \"hackernoon\", \"additionalFields\": {}}`. So, I'll set the `id` parameter to `hackernoon`. This tells the Disqus API exactly which forum's details we want to fetch. The `additionalFields` object is currently empty, meaning we're not requesting any extra specific fields beyond the default ones returned for forum details, which is fine for this requirement.\n\nFinally, like most API integrations, the `Disqus` node will require credentials to authenticate with the Disqus API. I'll need to make sure a `disqusApi` credential is set up and associated with this node. I wouldn't specify the actual credentials here, of course, just that the field `credentials\": {\"disqusApi\": \"\"}` indicates where those would be linked. This ensures the workflow has the necessary permissions to access Disqus data.\n\nThat seems to cover all the requirements for this simple workflow. The `active` status is `false` initially, which is typical for a newly designed workflow; it would be activated once we're confident it's ready to run. No special settings or complex connections are needed beyond the basic main flow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, fetches a random cocktail from TheCocktailDB API and then translates its instructions into Italian using LingvaNex.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"={{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strInstructions\\\"]}}\", \"options\": {}, \"translateTo\": \"it_IT\"}, \"name\": \"LingvaNex\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.lingvaNex\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"LingvaNex\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed from the ground up. The user wants a workflow that's manually triggered, grabs a random cocktail recipe, and then translates the instructions into Italian. Sounds like a fun little automation!\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states it should be \"manually triggered.\" So, my immediate thought is, \"How do I make this workflow start when I want it to?\" Looking at the n8n nodes, the most direct way to achieve this is with a `Manual Trigger` node. This is perfect for testing or for workflows that aren't based on an external event, like a schedule or a webhook.\n\nSo, I'd drag in a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. The `typeVersion` here is `1`. This node is really straightforward; it doesn't typically require any specific parameters to configure beyond its basic existence. Its job is simply to provide that initial pulse to kick off the workflow when someone clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n editor or runs it programmatically. It essentially just passes an empty item along to the next node to start the process.\n\nNow that we have a trigger, what's the very next step? The goal is to \"fetch a random cocktail from TheCocktailDB API.\" Fetching data from an external API is a classic use case for an `HTTP Request` node. This node is incredibly versatile and handles all sorts of web requests.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `Manual Trigger` node's main output to the input of a new `HTTP Request` node. This means that as soon as the manual trigger fires, it will tell the `HTTP Request` node to run.\n\nFor the `HTTP Request` node, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`, and again, the `typeVersion` is `1`. The crucial configuration here is the URL. The prompt specifies TheCocktailDB API for a *random* cocktail. I'd need to consult their API documentation, or if I already know it, I'd input the specific endpoint. In this case, the JSON tells me it's `https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php`. This URL is designed to return a single, random cocktail, which is exactly what we need. I don't see any other special options or headers needed for this particular API call based on the JSON, so I'd leave the `options` parameter empty for now. The node will perform a GET request by default, which is suitable for fetching data.\n\nAfter successfully fetching the cocktail data, the next part of the requirement is to \"translate its instructions into Italian using LingvaNex.\" This immediately tells me I need a `LingvaNex` node. n8n has built-in integrations for various services, and LingvaNex is one of them.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `HTTP Request` node's main output to the input of this new `LingvaNex` node. The data from the cocktail API call, including the instructions, will now be available to the `LingvaNex` node.\n\nThe `LingvaNex` node, with type `n8n-nodes-base.lingvaNex` and `typeVersion` `1`, is designed specifically for translation. It requires a few key pieces of information. First, it needs the text to translate. This is where the output from the `HTTP Request` node becomes vital. The cocktail data typically comes back as a JSON object, and I'd expect the instructions to be within that object. The JSON provided shows an expression for the `text` parameter: `={{$node[\"HTTP Request\"].json[\"drinks\"][0][\"strInstructions\"]}}`.\n\nLet's break that expression down. `$node[\"HTTP Request\"]` refers to the output data from the previous \"HTTP Request\" node. `.json` means we're accessing the JSON body of the response. The CocktailDB API often returns an array named `drinks`, and even if it's just one random cocktail, it's usually wrapped in an array, so `[0]` accesses the first (and likely only) cocktail object in that array. Finally, `[\"strInstructions\"]` is the specific key within that cocktail object that holds the instructions text. This expression correctly extracts *just* the instructions string to send to LingvaNex.\n\nNext, the `LingvaNex` node needs to know *what language* to translate to. The prompt specifies \"Italian.\" The LingvaNex node uses standard language codes, and for Italian, that's `it_IT`. So, I'd set the `translateTo` parameter to `it_IT`.\n\nFinally, for the `LingvaNex` node to work, it needs credentials to authenticate with the LingvaNex service. The JSON indicates `credentials: {\"lingvaNexApi\": \"LingvaNex\"}`. This means that a credential entry named \"LingvaNex\" (or whatever the user has named their LingvaNex API key credential within n8n) would need to be configured in n8n's credentials section. I wouldn't specify the actual API key here in the workflow, but rather link to the pre-configured credential. There are no other specific `options` mentioned for the LingvaNex translation, so those would remain empty.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow now starts manually, fetches a cocktail, extracts its instructions, and sends them to LingvaNex for translation into Italian. The output of the LingvaNex node would then contain the translated text, ready for whatever the user wants to do with it next, perhaps display it, save it, or send it somewhere." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers when a subscriber is added to a ConvertKit form. Configure the ConvertKit Trigger node to listen for 'formSubscribe' events on form ID 1657198, using your 'convertkit' API credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Receive updates when a subscriber is added through a form in ConvertKit\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"event\": \"formSubscribe\", \"formId\": 1657198}, \"name\": \"ConvertKit Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.convertKitTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [690, 260]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning out this n8n workflow. The main goal here is to get notified, or rather, to kick off a workflow, whenever a new subscriber joins a specific ConvertKit form.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need to figure out is how to actually *receive* that event from ConvertKit. Since we're dealing with an external system sending us information when something happens (a \"subscriber is added\"), a trigger node is definitely what I'm looking for. I need something that can listen for these incoming events.\n\nLooking at the n8n nodes available, and also checking the provided JSON, it's clear the `ConvertKit Trigger` node is the perfect fit. This node is specifically designed to integrate with ConvertKit and wait for particular events. It's a specialized webhook listener for ConvertKit. So, my starting point, and indeed the only node in this current design, will be a `ConvertKit Trigger` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.convertKitTrigger`, and the version I'll be using is `1`. This version handles the specific ConvertKit API interactions needed for webhooks.\n\nNow, once I've decided on the `ConvertKit Trigger` node, I need to configure it so it knows *what* to listen for and *where*. The prompt tells me I need to trigger \"when a subscriber is added to a ConvertKit form\" and specifies \"formSubscribe\" events on \"form ID 1657198\".\n\nSo, inside the `ConvertKit Trigger` node's parameters, I'll set the `event` field. This is crucial because ConvertKit can send different types of events (like a tag being added, or a purchase occurring). For our specific requirement, \"formSubscribe\" is exactly what we need to capture when someone subscribes to a form.\n\nNext, it's not just *any* form subscription; it's a *specific* form. The prompt explicitly gives me the `form ID 1657198`. So, I'll configure the `formId` parameter within the node. This tells the trigger to filter events and only activate the workflow if the `formSubscribe` event originates from this particular form ID. If I didn't specify this, it might trigger for *any* form, which isn't what we want.\n\nFinally, for the `ConvertKit Trigger` node to actually communicate with ConvertKit and set up the webhook, it needs credentials. The prompt mentions \"your 'convertkit' API credentials.\" In n8n, this means I'll link the node to a pre-configured set of ConvertKit API credentials. This `credentials` field will be set to `convertKitApi` and reference the name of the stored credential set, which is commonly just named \"convertkit\" in many setups. This allows the node to authenticate and interact with the ConvertKit API securely. I don't need to input the actual API key here, just reference the stored credential.\n\nAt this point, the node would be configured to listen. The `webhookId` is something n8n generates internally when the workflow is activated and sets up the webhook with ConvertKit, so I don't directly \"design\" that, but it's part of the node's internal state. The `position` is just where the node sits visually on the canvas.\n\nLooking at the overall workflow JSON, I see `connections: {}`. This means there are no further nodes connected after the `ConvertKit Trigger`. For this initial setup, that's perfectly fine. The goal was simply to *receive* the trigger event. Any subsequent actions (like sending an email, adding to a CRM, etc.) would be added as new nodes connected *after* this ConvertKit Trigger, but for the task of just triggering *when* a subscriber is added, this single node does exactly what's required. The workflow name, \"Receive updates when a subscriber is added through a form in ConvertKit,\" accurately reflects its purpose. And `active: false` simply means it's currently in a disabled state, waiting for me to activate it to start listening for events." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Cust1-variables' that starts with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node, which then connects to an 'Edit Fields' node configured to set two string variables: 'var1' to \"123\" and 'var3' to \"321\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Cust1-variables\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"ddbc1fdf-ded2-4613-a471-185713dd74ae\", \"name\": \"var1\", \"value\": \"123\", \"type\": \"string\"}, {\"id\": \"d23865d0-e30a-4c94-9f8e-afb6f832e6c3\", \"name\": \"var3\", \"value\": \"321\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [220, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants something named 'Cust1-variables', starting with a trigger, and then setting a couple of specific variables. This sounds like a pretty straightforward initial setup for a workflow that might process data later.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick it off. The prompt specifically mentions an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node. This is perfect because it's a very generic trigger that allows the workflow to be executed manually or called from another workflow. It doesn't require any specific external event, which makes it ideal for internal testing or for being a subroutine. So, I'll start by dropping that node onto the canvas. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`, and looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. For this kind of basic trigger, version 1 is perfectly fine; it just starts things, no complex parameters usually. I don't need to configure anything specific on it, as it's just a simple trigger. I'll place it at position [0, 0] to signify the start of our flow.\n\nNext, the prompt says this trigger needs to connect to an 'Edit Fields' node that's configured to set two string variables: 'var1' to \"123\" and 'var3' to \"321\". The 'Edit Fields' node in n8n is actually a \"Set\" node (`n8n-nodes-base.set`). It's incredibly useful for creating, renaming, or modifying data fields (or variables, as the prompt calls them) as data flows through the workflow. It allows us to explicitly define values for specific fields, which is exactly what we need here for our variables. This node is a great choice because it's robust and clear about what it's doing \u2013 setting specific values.\n\nSo, I'll add a \"Set\" node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and the JSON shows `typeVersion: 3.4`. That's a good, recent version that offers a lot of flexibility for data manipulation. I'll place it to the right of our trigger node, maybe around position [220, 0], to keep the flow visually linear.\n\nNow, for the connection: the 'Execute Workflow Trigger' needs to flow directly into the 'Edit Fields' (Set) node. So, I'll draw a connection from the 'main' output of the 'Execute Workflow Trigger' to the 'main' input of the 'Edit Fields' node. This means that once the workflow is triggered, the execution will immediately pass to our 'Edit Fields' node, carrying any initial (though in this case, empty) data along.\n\nFinally, the configuration of the 'Edit Fields' node. This is where we define our variables. Inside the parameters of the Set node, specifically under `assignments`, I need to add two assignments. Each assignment will be a key-value pair, with a specified type.\n\nFor the first variable:\n* The `name` will be \"var1\".\n* The `value` will be \"123\".\n* The `type` needs to be explicitly set to \"string\" as per the requirement. This ensures n8n treats \"123\" as text, not a number, which could be important for later operations.\n\nFor the second variable:\n* The `name` will be \"var3\".\n* The `value` will be \"321\".\n* Again, the `type` will be \"string\".\n\nIt's important to make sure these are set correctly. The Set node also has an `options` parameter, but in this case, it's empty, meaning we're not using options like \"Keep Only Set\" which would discard all other incoming data and only output the newly set fields. For this scenario, we just want to add these variables to whatever (if any) data is passing through. This seems like a complete and well-structured approach for the user's request." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

The goal is pretty clear: a manual trigger, followed by two consecutive Gmail 'get' operations.\n\nSo, the very first thing we need is a way to kick off the workflow. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger.\" This tells me I need to look for a node that allows for a human-initiated start.\n\nLooking at the provided JSON, I see a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. Its `name` is \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", which is a common default name for this type of trigger. This `manualTrigger` node is perfect for our starting point. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters for its basic function; its purpose is simply to provide a starting pulse to the workflow when activated, usually by a user clicking a button in the n8n interface. It won't pass any data itself, but it acts as the initial signal. I'd place it somewhere on the left, ready to start the flow.\n\nNext, the prompt states it \"then connects to a Gmail node named 'Gmail' set to 'get' data.\" This tells me the immediate successor to our `manualTrigger` will be a Gmail node. I'll need to find the specific Gmail node in the JSON that matches this description.\n\nSifting through the nodes, I find one with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\"` and `typeVersion: 2.1`. Its `name` is indeed \"Gmail\". This is exactly what we need. For its `parameters`, the prompt specifies it should be \"set to 'get' data\", and the JSON confirms this with `\"operation\": \"get\"`. This operation means the node will be configured to retrieve information from Gmail, like emails, threads, or labels. It's the right choice for fetching data. To make this node functional, it would, of course, require an active Gmail account credential to be configured, allowing it to authenticate with the user's Gmail account and access their data.\n\nNow, we need to establish the connection between the trigger and this first Gmail node. The `connections` object in the JSON shows `\"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This confirms that the `manualTrigger` node named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" connects its 'main' output to the 'main' input of the \"Gmail\" node. When the manual trigger fires, it will simply activate the \"Gmail\" node, telling it to execute its operation.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that the first Gmail node \"in turn connects to a second Gmail node (automatically named 'Gmail1') also set to 'get' data.\" So, our next node will also be a Gmail node, and it will follow directly after the first one.\n\nLooking at the remaining node in the JSON, I see another one with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\"` and `typeVersion: 2.1`. This node has an empty `name` parameter in the JSON (`\"name\": \"\"`). In n8n's UI, if you add a second node of the same type without manually naming it, it often gets an incremental name like 'Gmail1', 'Gmail2', etc. This aligns perfectly with the prompt's mention of \"automatically named 'Gmail1'\". Just like the first Gmail node, its `parameters` also include `\"operation\": \"get\"`, confirming it's also configured to retrieve data from Gmail. Again, like its predecessor, this node would also require appropriate Gmail credentials to function correctly. The choice of `get` operation suggests we might be fetching a different set of data, or perhaps performing a subsequent query based on the results of the first Gmail node, though the workflow JSON doesn't specify *what* data is being retrieved.\n\nFor the connection, the JSON shows `\"Gmail\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This indicates that the \"Gmail\" node (our first Gmail node) connects its 'main' output to the 'main' input of the second Gmail node (which the prompt says would be named 'Gmail1' in the UI and is the node with the empty name in the JSON). This connection means that once the first Gmail node successfully retrieves its data, it will pass that data as input to the second Gmail node, allowing the second node to process or act upon that information. For instance, the second Gmail node might perform another 'get' operation using an ID or filter criterion obtained from the first operation. The flow here is sequential: trigger fires, first Gmail node runs, then second Gmail node runs." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON named \"GetOnboardingFilePromptchaining\" that uses a webhook to trigger, fetches content from a specific Google Docs URL, and responds to the webhook with the retrieved document's content.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFilePromptchaining\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"487b2b98-6935-4621-b872-db8bbbb634a1\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/12ZEcqMVOTFYxJEIiAVUa6DwNxJet1YXGneUsAr_nSaQ\/view\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's map out this workflow. The request is quite clear: a webhook trigger, fetching content from Google Docs, and then sending that content back as the webhook's response. This sounds like a fairly common pattern for exposing a document via an API endpoint.\n\nFirst things first, how does this whole process *start*? The prompt explicitly says \"uses a webhook to trigger.\" So, that's our initial entry point.\n\n**Node 1: Webhook**\n* **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **TypeVersion**: `2`\n\nThis is the perfect node to begin with. It's designed to listen for incoming HTTP requests and kick off a workflow. I'll drop this node down first.\n\nNow, how should I configure it? Well, it needs a unique path so external systems know where to send their requests. That's `path`. Beyond that, the crucial setting here is the \"Response Mode.\" Since we need to perform an action (fetching the Google Doc) *before* responding to the initial webhook call, I can't just let the webhook node send an immediate 200 OK. I need to delay the response until we have the content. So, I'll set the `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells the webhook to wait for a subsequent `Respond to Webhook` node later in the workflow to send the final response. This is exactly what we need here.\n\nAlright, the webhook is listening. What's the very next step? The prompt says \"fetches content from a specific Google Docs URL.\" This tells me I need an integration with Google Docs.\n\n**Node 2: Google Docs**\n* **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`\n* **TypeVersion**: `2`\n\nThe Google Docs node is the obvious choice for interacting with Google Docs. I'll connect its input directly from the output of the \"Webhook\" node. This ensures that when a request hits our webhook, the workflow immediately proceeds to try and fetch the document.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Google Docs node?\nIts `operation` should clearly be `get`, as we want to retrieve the content of a document.\nThen, I need to specify *which* document. That's where the `documentURL` parameter comes in. A specific Google Docs URL would be provided here to point to the file we want to retrieve.\nAnd naturally, to access Google Docs, this node will require credentials. An appropriate Google Docs OAuth2 API credential would be linked here, allowing n8n to authenticate and access the specified document. Without that, it simply wouldn't be able to read the document.\n\nSo, we've triggered the workflow, and we've successfully fetched the content of the Google Doc. What's the final piece of the puzzle? The prompt states \"responds to the webhook with the retrieved document's content.\"\n\n**Node 3: Respond to Webhook**\n* **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`\n* **TypeVersion**: `1.1`\n\nSince we set the initial \"Webhook\" node's `responseMode` to `responseNode`, this is the node that will actually send the response back to the original caller. I'll connect the output of the \"Google Docs\" node to the input of this \"Respond to Webhook\" node. This ensures that once the document content is fetched, it's immediately available to be sent back.\n\nConfiguration for this node:\nFor `respondWith`, since we're just sending back the document's content, `text` is a perfectly suitable format. If it were structured data, I might consider JSON, but for document content, text works great.\nThe most critical part is the `responseBody`. How do I get the content from the \"Google Docs\" node into this response? The \"Google Docs\" node, when performing a 'get' operation, typically outputs the document's text in a field, commonly named `content`. So, I'll use an expression to pull that specific data: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression dynamically references the `content` field from the previous node's output, ensuring that the fetched document's content is what's returned to the original webhook caller.\n\nAnd that completes the flow. The webhook triggers, the Google Doc is fetched, and its content is sent back as the webhook's response. It's a clean, linear flow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Webhook wait set\" that starts with a Webhook node, then waits for 2 seconds, and finally passes execution to a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Webhook wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [940, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The goal here is pretty clear: we need something that kicks off when an external event happens, pauses for a bit, and then moves on to a final step. The name \"Webhook wait set\" really tells us exactly what we're going for.\n\nSo, first things first, let's set up the overall structure. The prompt clearly states the workflow's name should be \"Webhook wait set\". That's straightforward, and I'll make sure that's applied right at the top.\n\nNow, for the nodes. The prompt specifies the starting point: \"starts with a Webhook node\". This is a perfect fit, as a `Webhook` node, specifically of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion: 1`, is designed to act as an HTTP endpoint. Any external system can send data to this endpoint, and it will trigger the workflow. It's the standard entry point for event-driven workflows like this. Looking at the provided JSON, I see it's configured with a `path` parameter. This `path` is essentially the unique part of the URL that n8n generates for this specific webhook. It ensures that incoming requests hit *this* particular workflow trigger. The `options` parameter is currently empty, meaning we're not applying any special configurations like custom response modes or headers at this initial stage, which is fine for a basic setup.\n\nOnce the `Webhook` node receives data and triggers the workflow, the next logical step, as per the prompt, is to \"wait for 2 seconds\". For this, the `Wait` node is absolutely the right choice. It's purpose-built for introducing a delay into the workflow execution. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.wait`, and `typeVersion: 1`. When I connect the `Webhook` node to the `Wait` node, specifically connecting the `main` output of the `Webhook` to the `main` input of the `Wait` node, it ensures that whatever data comes in through the webhook is passed along to the `Wait` node before the pause begins. The configuration for the `Wait` node is simple and directly matches the requirement: `amount: 2` and `unit: \"seconds\"`. This tells the workflow to literally pause execution for two seconds before proceeding. No complex logic needed here, just a straightforward delay.\n\nAfter that wait period is over, the workflow needs to continue. The prompt states \"and finally passes execution to a Set node.\" So, my next move is to add a `Set` node. The type for this one is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and `typeVersion: 1`. The `Set` node is incredibly versatile; it allows you to define, modify, or remove data fields on the incoming items. In this particular scenario, the JSON shows its `parameters.options` as empty. This implies that we're not actually setting any specific values, but rather using the `Set` node as a simple, generic final step in this sequence. It acts as a clear endpoint for the described flow: Webhook -> Wait -> Set. I'll connect the `main` output of the `Wait` node to the `main` input of the `Set` node. This ensures that once the 2-second delay is complete, the workflow execution, along with any data that has flowed through, seamlessly moves into the `Set` node, completing the specified chain of events." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then creates a new Google Sheet named \"This is a TEST\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Google sheets\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"spreadsheet\", \"title\": \"This is a TEST\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Google Sheets\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets\", \"typeVersion\": 4.5, \"position\": [220, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Sheets\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed and built in n8n. The request is quite specific: a manual trigger followed by creating a new Google Sheet with a particular name. I'll walk through how I'd put this together, looking at the provided JSON as my blueprint.\n\nFirst, I always think about the starting point of any workflow. How is it going to be initiated? The prompt clearly states it needs to start with a *manual trigger*. So, that's the very first node I'd reach for.\n\nI'd add a `manualTrigger` node. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This is perfect for what we need. This node is essentially a button that, when clicked, kicks off the entire workflow. It doesn't require any special configuration beyond its basic setup, as indicated by the empty `parameters` object in the JSON. It's self-contained and serves purely as the initiation point. I'd give it a descriptive name like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", which is exactly what the JSON shows, making it clear to anyone using the workflow how to start it.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's the next step? The prompt says \"creates a new Google Sheet named \"This is a TEST\".\" This immediately tells me I'll need an integration with Google Sheets. So, I'd search for a Google Sheets node.\n\nI'd then connect the `manualTrigger` node's output to the input of this new Google Sheets node. The connection type would be `main` to `main`, which is the standard way to pass execution flow from one node to the next in sequence. This means that once the manual trigger fires, it will simply tell the Google Sheets node to execute. No specific data from the trigger needs to be passed for the sheet creation in this case, just the signal to proceed.\n\nLooking at the JSON for the Google Sheets node, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets` and the `typeVersion` is `4.5`. This confirms it's the right node for interacting with Google Sheets. The `typeVersion` `4.5` indicates it's a relatively recent version of the node, likely offering a good set of features and stability. If it were an older version, I might wonder if certain actions or parameters were missing, but `4.5` sounds solid.\n\nNext, I need to configure this Google Sheets node to perform the specific action of creating a new spreadsheet. I'd look at its `parameters`.\n\nThe first parameter I see is `resource`, and its value is set to `\"spreadsheet\"`. This is absolutely critical. The Google Sheets node can operate on various \"resources\" like individual rows, columns, or data. But to create an *entire new sheet*, we need to select \"spreadsheet\" as the resource type. This tells the node our operation is at the document level.\n\nThen, for the action, within the \"spreadsheet\" resource, I'd expect an \"Operation\" setting. The JSON doesn't explicitly list \"operation\" in the top-level parameters, but by setting `resource` to \"spreadsheet\" and then defining `title`, it implies the \"create\" operation. When you select \"spreadsheet\" as a resource in the Google Sheets node, \"create\" is one of the primary operations available, and providing a `title` is the key parameter for that specific operation.\n\nThe `title` parameter is set to `\"This is a TEST\"`. This directly fulfills the requirement from the prompt. This value will be used as the name of the new Google Sheet that gets created. It's exactly what we need.\n\nFinally, there's an `options` object, which is currently empty `{}`. This means we're not specifying any additional creation options like a parent folder ID, specific permissions, or initial data to populate the sheet with. For a basic creation request, leaving this empty is perfectly fine and simplifies the process. If we needed to create it in a specific drive folder, for example, that's where I'd configure it.\n\nOne last crucial part for any integration node like Google Sheets is `credentials`. The JSON shows `googleSheetsOAuth2Api` with an `id` and `name`. This indicates that an OAuth 2.0 API credential has been set up and selected for this node. This credential is what allows n8n to securely authenticate with Google on behalf of the user and perform actions like creating spreadsheets in their Google Drive. I wouldn't specify the actual ID or name here, but simply confirm that a proper authentication method needs to be configured for the node to function. Without it, the workflow wouldn't be able to access Google Sheets.\n\nSo, to summarize the flow: manual trigger fires, sends a signal to the Google Sheets node, which then, using the configured credentials, performs the \"create spreadsheet\" operation with the title \"This is a TEST\". This completely fulfills the user's request." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then reads the RSS feed from `https:\/\/failedmachine.com\/rss\/`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [260, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/failedmachine.com\/rss\/\"}, \"name\": \"RSS Feed Read\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.rssFeedRead\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 320]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"RSS Feed Read\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's think about how to build this n8n workflow from scratch. The user wants something that starts manually and then fetches an RSS feed.\n\nSo, the very first thing we need is a way to kick off the workflow. The prompt explicitly says \"starts with a manual trigger.\" That makes the choice straightforward.\n\nI'd start by dragging in a trigger node. Looking at the available options, the `Manual Trigger` node is exactly what's needed here. It's designed for exactly this purpose \u2013 to initiate the workflow when someone clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button or manually triggers it within the n8n interface.\n\nSo, the first node will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is 1. For a manual trigger, there aren't really any complex parameters to set; it simply exists to provide that starting point. It doesn't need to read any external data or listen for events, just wait for a manual prompt. Its position in the workflow editor, like [260, 320], is purely visual to help lay out the workflow.\n\nNow, once the workflow is manually triggered, what's next? The prompt states \"then reads the RSS feed from `https:\/\/failedmachine.com\/rss\/`.\" This clearly points to needing a node that can fetch and parse an RSS feed.\n\nI'd look for an \"RSS\" specific node. Fortunately, n8n has a dedicated one for this. The `RSS Feed Read` node seems like the perfect fit. This node is designed specifically to connect to an RSS feed URL, download its content, and parse it into structured data that subsequent nodes can easily work with.\n\nSo, the next node would be of type `n8n-nodes-base.rssFeedRead`, and its `typeVersion` is 1.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The `Manual Trigger`'s purpose is to start the flow. Its output should simply signal to the `RSS Feed Read` node that it's time to execute. So, I'd connect the `main` output of the `On clicking 'execute'` node (our `manualTrigger`) to the `main` input of the `RSS Feed Read` node. This means when the trigger fires, the `RSS Feed Read` node will activate and perform its operation.\n\nFinally, we need to configure the `RSS Feed Read` node. The most crucial part of this node's configuration is providing the URL of the RSS feed it needs to read. The prompt specifies `https:\/\/failedmachine.com\/rss\/`. So, within the `parameters` of the `rssFeedRead` node, I'd set the `url` field to this exact address. This tells the node exactly where to go to fetch the feed content. The position of this node, [460, 320], just means it's laid out next to the trigger, typically to the right, in a logical flow direction.\n\nAnd that's it. We have a manual starting point, correctly configured to read from the specified RSS feed. It's a very straightforward workflow, fulfilling both requirements with dedicated nodes." } { "prompt": "Design an n8n workflow that listens for POST requests at `\/test-greeting` via a webhook.

I'm thinking about how we can best meet the user's request, which is to create an n8n workflow that can receive a POST request, pull out some information, add a timestamp, and then craft a custom greeting.\n\nFirst things first, we need a way for the workflow to actually *receive* that POST request. For that, the go-to node in n8n is definitely the **Webhook** node. It's designed specifically for listening for incoming HTTP requests. So, I'll start by adding a **Webhook** node.\n\nLooking at the JSON, this node is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is the standard Webhook node.\nNow, how should we configure it? The prompt specifies that it needs to listen for POST requests at the path `\/test-greeting`. So, in the Webhook's parameters, I'd set the `httpMethod` to `POST`. And for the `path`, I'll input `test-greeting`. This means n8n will create an endpoint at `your_n8n_url\/webhook\/test-greeting` that listens for POST requests. The `webhookId` property in the JSON also reflects this path as `test-greeting-hook`, which is a good descriptive name for internal tracking. This node will be the entry point for our workflow.\n\nOkay, so we've got the incoming request handled. What's next? The user wants to extract a 'name' from the request body, add a current timestamp, and then format a specific greeting message. This kind of custom logic \u2013 pulling specific data, generating new data (like a timestamp), and combining strings in a particular format \u2013 is perfectly suited for a **Function** node. It allows us to write JavaScript code directly within the workflow to manipulate the data coming from the previous node.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Function** node right after our Webhook. I'll connect the `main` output of the Webhook to the `main` input of this new Function node. This ensures that the data received by the Webhook (which will include the request body) is passed directly to our Function node for processing.\n\nLooking at the JSON, this Function node is named \"Format Greeting\", and it's of `type: n8n-nodes-base.function` and `typeVersion: 1`. That's standard and exactly what we need.\n\nNow, for the logic inside the **Function** node:\nThe prompt states we need to extract a 'name' from the request body. When the Webhook receives data, the request body usually lives under `$json.body` in the n8n data structure. So, inside the `functionCode` parameter, my first line would be `const name = $json.body.name || 'World';`. This line attempts to read a property called `name` from the incoming request body. I'm adding `|| 'World'` as a fallback \u2013 it's good practice to provide a default value in case the 'name' property isn't provided in the request, preventing potential errors down the line.\n\nNext, we need to add the current timestamp. JavaScript's `Date` object is perfect for this. I'll use `const timestamp = new Date().toISOString();`. `toISOString()` is a great way to get a universally formatted timestamp string, which is typically what we want for logging or display.\n\nFinally, we need to generate the greeting message in the specified format: \"Hello, [name]! You submitted this at [timestamp].\" I can use a JavaScript template literal for this, which makes string interpolation very clean. So, `const message = \\`Hello, ${name}! You submitted this at ${timestamp}.\\`;` will do the trick.\n\nAfter all this processing, the Function node needs to output the result so that it can be used or viewed later. The common pattern in n8n Function nodes is to modify the `$items` array. So, I'll set `$items[0].json = { message: message };`. This creates a new JSON object with a single property, `message`, containing our generated greeting, and makes it the output of this node. And importantly, I need to `return $items;` at the end of the function code to actually pass this modified data to any subsequent nodes (even though in this specific workflow, it's the last node).\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps up the design for this workflow. The Webhook listens, passes the incoming request to the Function node, and the Function node processes it according to the rules and outputs the desired greeting message." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that uses an AMQP Trigger to receive messages from an ActiveMQ queue.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Receive messages for an ActiveMQ queue via AMQP Trigger\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"sink\": \"\"}, \"name\": \"AMQP Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.amqpTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 200]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think about how we'd build this n8n workflow from the ground up, aiming to receive messages from an ActiveMQ queue using an AMQP Trigger.\n\nSo, the core requirement here is to get messages from an ActiveMQ queue. ActiveMQ, while it supports various protocols, very commonly uses AMQP for message queuing. This immediately tells me what kind of node I'll need to start with.\n\nMy first thought goes straight to a trigger node, because we need the workflow to *start* when a new message arrives. And since it's specifically about AMQP and ActiveMQ, an \"AMQP Trigger\" node seems like the perfect fit. It's designed exactly for this purpose: to listen to an AMQP broker for incoming messages.\n\nSo, I'd drag an \"AMQP Trigger\" node onto the canvas. Looking at the provided JSON, its `type` is indeed `n8n-nodes-base.amqpTrigger`. This confirms we're using the standard AMQP trigger available in n8n. The `typeVersion` is `1`, which is good to note; it means we're using a specific version of this node's logic, and its behavior should be consistent with that version.\n\nNow, let's configure this \"AMQP Trigger\" node.\n\nFirst, I'd consider its basic settings. Every trigger node needs to know *what* to listen to and *how* to connect.\n\nLooking at the `parameters` section in the JSON, I see `{\"sink\": \"\"}`. The `sink` parameter often relates to how messages are acknowledged or routed once they're received by the trigger. In a simple setup, leaving it empty might mean a default behavior, perhaps an automatic acknowledgment or simply not routing the message to another internal sink. If we needed to, say, forward the message to another internal queue or specific handler within n8n after receiving it, we'd configure this `sink` parameter with the appropriate destination. But for just receiving, it can remain blank for now.\n\nNext, and critically, is the `credentials` section: `{\"amqp\": \"\"}`. This is where the AMQP Trigger node gets the information it needs to connect to our ActiveMQ broker. It's like telling n8n, \"Hey, here's how you log into and find the ActiveMQ server.\" We'd need to configure an AMQP credential, which typically includes details such as the hostname or IP address of the ActiveMQ server, the port it's listening on for AMQP connections, potentially a virtual host, and, of course, the username and password for authentication. Without these credentials, the trigger wouldn't be able to establish a connection to the ActiveMQ queue and thus wouldn't receive any messages. So, while it's empty in the JSON, in a real-world scenario, this would be a mandatory step: creating or selecting the correct AMQP credentials that point to our ActiveMQ instance.\n\nAfter configuring those, the \"AMQP Trigger\" node would be ready. When the workflow is activated, this node would establish its connection to the specified ActiveMQ queue (based on the queue name configured within the AMQP credentials, which isn't directly exposed in this node's parameters but is part of the credential setup or implicit queue naming conventions for the trigger) and just sit there, listening. As soon as a message lands in that ActiveMQ queue, the \"AMQP Trigger\" would pick it up, and the workflow execution would begin.\n\nSince the provided JSON only includes this single node and `connections: {}`, it implies this workflow's primary purpose is simply to receive the message. What happens *after* reception isn't part of this particular workflow definition. We're essentially building the entry point, the listener. If we wanted to, say, log the message, process it, or send it somewhere else, we'd add subsequent nodes connected to the \"AMQP Trigger\" output. But for now, just the trigger does the job of receiving." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFileChainofThought' where a webhook triggers a Google Docs node to fetch the document from 'https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1K0Y-OxyIV0auMN0CKe8tWUb4uSimFFIWZQCWaEvKQo4\/view', then sends its content back via a 'Respond to Webhook' node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFileChainofThought\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"ad3c9f90-e39e-49dc-b2f5-2a37fcda26ab\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1K0Y-OxyIV0auMN0CKe8tWUb4uSimFFIWZQCWaEvKQo4\/view\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start designing this workflow piece by piece, just as if I were building it from scratch in the n8n editor.\n\nThe user's request is quite clear: we need a workflow that gets triggered by a webhook, fetches a Google Docs file, and then sends its content back as a response. The workflow should be named 'GetOnboardingFileChainofThought'.\n\nSo, first things first, how does this workflow get kicked off? The prompt explicitly states \"a webhook triggers\". That's our starting point.\n\n**Node 1: The Trigger**\n\nI'll need a trigger node, and a webhook is the perfect fit for an external system initiating this process.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **Type Version:** Looking at the JSON, it's `2`. This is a standard and robust version for webhooks.\n\nNow, how should this webhook be configured? Since it needs to send a response *back* to the system that triggered it, I'll set its `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This means the webhook won't immediately respond; it will wait for a dedicated \"Respond to Webhook\" node later in the workflow to handle the outgoing message. This is crucial for our requirement to send the document content back. The `path` parameter defines the unique endpoint URL for this specific webhook. I'd typically auto-generate that or define a custom one, but for now, I know it's there to receive the incoming request.\n\nSo, the Webhook node is in place, ready to listen for incoming requests.\n\n**Node 2: Fetching the Document**\n\nThe next step in the user's prompt is \"triggers a Google Docs node to fetch the document from '...view'\". This tells me exactly what node to use and what it needs to do.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`\n* **Type Version:** The JSON shows `2`. This is good; it likely has all the necessary operations.\n\nThis Google Docs node needs to do one thing: get a document. So, I'll set its `operation` parameter to `get`. For the `documentURL` parameter, this is where the specific URL of the Google Docs file would be provided. It's essential that this URL points to the document we want to fetch. Of course, to interact with Google Docs, this node will require authentication. I'd configure credentials here, connecting to a Google account that has access to the specified document. This is typically done through OAuth2, where the user grants n8n permission to access their Google Docs.\n\nNow, I need to connect the Webhook to this Google Docs node. The Webhook will pass its execution to the Google Docs node once it receives an incoming request. This forms the main flow of the workflow.\n\n**Node 3: Sending the Response Back**\n\nFinally, the prompt says, \"then sends its content back via a 'Respond to Webhook' node.\" This is the last piece of the puzzle.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`\n* **Type Version:** The JSON shows `1.1`.\n\nThis node is specifically designed to send a response back to the original webhook trigger, which is exactly what we set up in our first node. It needs to send the *content* of the Google Doc. So, for the `responseBody`, I'll use an expression to pull that data from the output of the previous Google Docs node. The Google Docs node, when configured to `get` a document, typically outputs the document's content under a property like `content`. So, an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` will dynamically grab that text and send it. I'd also set the `respondWith` parameter to `text` because we're returning the raw textual content of the document, not a JSON object or binary data.\n\nThe connection here is straightforward: the Google Docs node, once it has successfully fetched the document, will pass its output to the \"Respond to Webhook\" node. This ensures that the content it just retrieved is available for the response.\n\nThis completes the entire flow.

Since the plan is to respond to the original webhook later in the workflow with the content from the Google Doc, setting `responseMode` to `responseNode` is the correct choice. This tells the Webhook node to wait for a subsequent `Respond to Webhook` node to send the actual reply, rather than sending an immediate default response. We'll place this node at the very beginning of our workflow, say at `[0, 0]`, as it's the entry point.\n\nNext, once the webhook triggers, we need to \"fetch the text content from the Google Docs document.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can interact with Google Docs. The obvious choice here is the Google Docs node.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Google Docs** node. This would be `type: n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion: 2`. This node is designed specifically for interacting with Google Docs, including reading document content. For its operation, I'd choose `get`, as we're trying to retrieve content. I'd then specify the `documentURL` parameter, where the URL of the target Google Docs document would be provided. Crucially, this node would require `credentials` to authenticate with Google Docs and access the specified document. These credentials would link to an authorized Google account with the necessary permissions. This Google Docs node needs to execute right after the Webhook, so I'll connect the 'main' output of the Webhook node to the 'main' input of this Google Docs node. I'd position it logically after the Webhook, perhaps at `[220, 0]`.\n\nNow, after the Google Docs node successfully fetches the content, the final step is to \"respond to the webhook with that content.\" This implies we need a node specifically designed to send a response back to the webhook that triggered the workflow.\n\nThis brings us to the **Respond to Webhook** node. This is `type: n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node is perfectly suited for sending a custom response back to a webhook that initiated the workflow, especially when the initial Webhook node was set to `responseMode: \"responseNode\"`. For its configuration, the prompt asks for \"text content,\" so I'd set `respondWith` to `text`. The most critical part here is the `responseBody`. I need to ensure that the content fetched by the Google Docs node is actually sent back. I'd use an expression to reference the data from the previous Google Docs node. Typically, when retrieving text content from a document using the Google Docs node, the content is available in a field like `content` on the output JSON. So, the `responseBody` would be configured as `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression takes the output data from the Google Docs node (which is `$json`) and extracts the value of its `content` property. This `Respond to Webhook` node needs to receive the data from the Google Docs node, so I'll connect the 'main' output of the Google Docs node to the 'main' input of this node. I'll place it as the last step in our linear flow, maybe at `[440, 0]`." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow to delete records older than 30 days from the `execution_entity` MySQL table based on the `stoppedAt` column. It should be triggered manually and also run automatically every day at 7 AM.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"query\": \"DELETE FROM execution_entity \\nWHERE DATE(stoppedAt) < DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 30 DAY)\", \"operation\": \"executeQuery\"}, \"name\": \"MySQL\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.mySql\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 7}]}}, \"name\": \"Cron\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cron\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 460]}], \"connections\": {\"Cron\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"MySQL\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"MySQL\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow step by step, as if I'm building it from scratch.\n\nFirst, I need to understand the core requirements. The user wants to delete old records from a MySQL table. The key here is \"older than 30 days\" and the column `stoppedAt`. Crucially, it needs two ways to trigger: manually, and automatically every day at 7 AM.\n\nRight, so the first thing that comes to mind are the *triggers*. A workflow needs something to kick it off. Since there are two distinct trigger mechanisms mentioned, I know I'll need two separate trigger nodes.\n\nFor the manual trigger, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node is the perfect choice. It's designed exactly for this purpose \u2013 allowing a user to click a button in the n8n UI and start the workflow. I'd place this node down first, perhaps giving it a descriptive name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" as seen in the JSON. Its `typeVersion` is 1, which is standard for a node like this and typically doesn't have complex version-specific behaviors to consider for a simple trigger. It doesn't require any specific parameters to be configured, as its purpose is just to emit a signal when manually activated.\n\nNext, for the automatic daily run, I'll need a different trigger. The requirement is \"every day at 7 AM,\" which immediately points to a scheduled trigger. The `n8n-nodes-base.cron` node is the standard and most flexible way to handle time-based scheduling in n8n. I'd drag this onto the canvas. For its configuration, I'd go into its parameters and find the `triggerTimes` setting. Inside that, I'd specify the hour as `7` (representing 7 AM). This ensures that the node will activate and send a signal downstream precisely at that time each day. Again, its `typeVersion` is 1, which is quite stable for basic scheduling.\n\nNow that I have my triggers in place, what's the actual work that needs to be done? It's about deleting records from a MySQL table. So, I definitely need a node that can interact with a MySQL database. The `n8n-nodes-base.mySql` node is the clear candidate for this. I'd add this node to the canvas.\n\nOnce I have the MySQL node, I need to tell it what to do. The operation is to \"delete records.\" Looking at the available operations for the MySQL node, `executeQuery` is the most flexible one for custom SQL statements, which is what I'll need for this specific deletion logic. So, I'd set the `operation` parameter to `executeQuery`.\n\nThen comes the crucial part: the SQL query itself. The prompt states \"delete records older than 30 days from the `execution_entity` MySQL table based on the `stoppedAt` column.\"\nSo, the start of the query is straightforward: `DELETE FROM execution_entity`.\nFor the \"older than 30 days\" part based on `stoppedAt`, I need a `WHERE` clause. I'll compare the `stoppedAt` column with a date 30 days ago from today. MySQL has functions for this. `CURDATE()` gives me today's date, and `DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 30 DAY)` calculates the date 30 days prior to today. Since `stoppedAt` might be a `DATETIME` or `TIMESTAMP` column, comparing just the date part is safer to avoid issues with time components. So, `DATE(stoppedAt)` would extract just the date from the `stoppedAt` column.\nPutting it all together, the `query` parameter would be set to: `DELETE FROM execution_entity WHERE DATE(stoppedAt) < DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 30 DAY)`. This looks correct and robust.\nThe MySQL node also requires credentials. I wouldn't specify actual credentials here, but I'd know that a `mySql` credential, perhaps named \"n8n\" as indicated in the JSON, would need to be pre-configured in the n8n environment to allow this node to connect to the database. Its `typeVersion` is 1, which again, is standard.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these nodes. Both triggers\u2014the manual trigger and the cron trigger\u2014should lead to the MySQL node. So, I'd draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (manualTrigger) node to the `main` input of the \"MySQL\" node. Similarly, I'd connect the `main` output of the \"Cron\" node to the `main` input of the \"MySQL\" node. This ensures that no matter how the workflow is initiated, the deletion query will be executed." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named \"Bot telegram de errores\" that triggers on incoming Telegram messages and echoes the received text back to the original chat, prefixed with \"Eco:\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Bot telegram de errores\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"updates\": [\"message\"], \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Telegram Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegramTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"chatId\": \"={{ $json.message.chat.id }}\", \"text\": \"=Eco: {{ $json.message.text }}\", \"additionalFields\": {\"appendAttribution\": false}}, \"name\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegram\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [220, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Telegram Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's break down how I'd approach building this n8n workflow, thinking step-by-step from the requirements.\n\nThe core request is to create a Telegram bot that simply echoes back messages, prefixed with \"Eco:\", and the workflow needs to be inactive initially.\n\nFirst off, I need to consider what kind of event will kick this whole thing off. The prompt clearly states \"triggers on incoming Telegram messages.\" This immediately tells me my starting point needs to be a Telegram trigger.\n\nSo, the very first node I'd reach for is a **Telegram Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.telegramTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1.2`. This is the right choice because it's specifically designed to listen for and receive updates from a Telegram bot. It acts as the webhook listener for our bot.\n\nWhen configuring this trigger, I'd pay close attention to what kind of updates it should listen for. The goal is to echo messages, so under its parameters, specifically `updates`, I'd select `message`. This ensures that the workflow only activates when a new text message is sent to the bot, ignoring other events like channel posts, edits, or callback queries, which aren't relevant to this specific echo function. There are no other special fields needed for the trigger, so the `additionalFields` would remain empty as seen in the JSON. Of course, this node would require a Telegram API credential to connect to a specific bot, which would be pre-configured.\n\nNow that I have the trigger set up to receive incoming messages, the next logical step is to process that message and send a response. The requirement is to \"echoes the received text back to the original chat, prefixed with 'Eco:'.\" This means I need an action node that can send messages via Telegram.\n\nSo, the next node I'd add would be a **Telegram** node. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.telegram` with `typeVersion: 1.2`. This is the standard Telegram node used for performing actions like sending messages, photos, or other operations.\n\nNow, how do I connect these two? The `connections` object in the JSON shows a simple, direct connection: `Telegram Trigger`'s `main` output connects to the `Telegram` node's `main` input. This means that as soon as the Telegram Trigger receives a message, it will pass that message's data directly to the Telegram action node for processing. This is a straightforward linear flow, which is exactly what's needed for an echo bot.\n\nNext, I need to configure this Telegram action node to send the correct message to the correct chat.\n\nFor the `chatId` parameter, I need to ensure the message is sent back to the same chat it originated from. The data from the incoming message, passed by the trigger node, will contain this information. I'd use an expression to extract it. The JSON shows `chatId: \"={{ $json.message.chat.id }}\"`. This is perfect. `$json` represents the data coming from the previous node (our trigger), and within that data structure, `message.chat.id` is the path to the unique identifier of the chat where the original message was sent.\n\nThen, for the `text` parameter, the requirement specifies \"prefixed with 'Eco:'\" and echoing the received text. Again, an expression is needed here. The JSON shows `text: \"=Eco: {{ $json.message.text }}\"`. This is exactly right. \"Eco: \" is the static prefix, and `{{ $json.message.text }}` dynamically pulls the actual text content of the message that the trigger received. This ensures the echo functionality.\n\nFinally, within the `additionalFields` for the Telegram node, I see `appendAttribution: false`. This is a good setting for a bot like this. By default, n8n might append a small \"Sent by n8n\" attribution to messages. For a clean, simple echo bot, turning this off makes the response feel more natural and integrated into the Telegram conversation. This node, like the trigger, would also rely on the same pre-configured Telegram API credential to authenticate with the bot.\n\nFinally, the prompt stated the workflow should be \"inactive\". So, at the top-level of the workflow configuration, I'd ensure the `active` property is set to `false`, as it is in the provided JSON. The name of the workflow, \"Bot telegram de errores\", also matches the requirement. All other metadata fields like `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, `id`, `versionId` are system-generated or managed by n8n itself.\n\nAnd that's it. A simple, two-node workflow: one to listen for a specific event (Telegram message), and one to perform a specific action in response (send a Telegram message back). The key is accurately extracting the necessary data from the incoming message and constructing the outgoing message using expressions." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that listens for a webhook at `\/test`, generates static JSON data with a number and a string, converts this data to XML, and then responds to the webhook with the generated XML, setting the content type to `application\/xml`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"jsonToxml\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"XML\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.xml\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [840, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"number\", \"value\": 1}], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"string\", \"value\": \"my text\"}]}, \"options\": {}, \"keepOnlySet\": true}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [660, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {\"responseHeaders\": {\"entries\": [{\"name\": \"content-type\", \"value\": \"application\/xml\"}]}}, \"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.data }}\"}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1020, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"test\", \"options\": {}, \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\"}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [480, 440]}], \"connections\": {\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"XML\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"XML\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start building this workflow step by step, imagining I'm an n8n designer working through the requirements.\n\nThe first thing I always think about when creating a workflow is, \"What's the trigger?\" The user prompt specifies that the workflow needs to \"listen for a webhook at `\/test`\". This immediately tells me I need a `Webhook` node. It's the standard entry point for any workflow that responds to external HTTP requests.\n\nSo, I'd drag out a **Webhook** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, typeVersion: 1). This is my starting point. Now, how do I configure it? The prompt says the path should be `\/test`. So, in the node's parameters, I'd set the `path` to `test`. This ensures it listens specifically on that endpoint.\n\nAnother critical setting for the `Webhook` node, especially when I know I'll be generating a custom response later in the workflow, is the `responseMode`. By default, it might send an immediate empty 200 OK, but I want to control the entire response. So, I'd make sure to set `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node to wait for a subsequent \"Respond to Webhook\" node to actually send the HTTP response back. The `webhookId` is something n8n assigns internally, so I don't configure that myself; it just appears.\n\nNext up, the prompt says, \"generates static JSON data with a number and a string\". My workflow has been triggered by the webhook, but now I need to create some specific data that doesn't come from the webhook itself. For creating arbitrary, static data within a workflow, the `Set` node is perfect. It's designed to add or modify data fields in the incoming items.\n\nSo, I'd connect my `Webhook` node to a new **Set** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.set`, typeVersion: 1). The connection would simply be a standard successful execution path.\nInside the `Set` node's parameters, I need to define the static data. I'd add a value for a `number` field and set its value to `1`. Then I'd add another value for a `string` field and set its value to `my text`.\nAn important option I'd consider here is `keepOnlySet`. Since I'm creating brand new data and don't care about any data that might have come *from* the webhook itself (like headers or body from the incoming request), it's good practice to enable `keepOnlySet: true`. This ensures that only the data I explicitly set in this node is passed on to the next one, keeping the data clean and predictable.\n\nNow that I have my static JSON data, the prompt states, \"converts this data to XML\". This is a straightforward transformation task. n8n has a dedicated node for XML operations, which includes conversion between JSON and XML.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `Set` node to an **XML** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.xml`, typeVersion: 1).\nFor the `XML` node's configuration, I'd set the `mode` parameter. Since I'm starting with JSON and need XML, the `jsonToxml` mode is precisely what I need. The node will automatically take the JSON output from the `Set` node and attempt to convert it into an XML string.\n\nFinally, after generating the XML, the prompt requires me to \"respond to the webhook with the generated XML, setting the content type to `application\/xml`.\" This is where the `Respond to Webhook` node comes into play, fulfilling the promise made by the initial `Webhook` node's `responseMode`.\n\nI'd connect the `XML` node to a **Respond to Webhook** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, typeVersion: 1).\nIn its parameters, I need to specify what to send back. Since the output of the `XML` node will be a plain text string (the XML content), I'd set `respondWith` to `text`.\nFor the `responseBody`, I need to dynamically reference the XML string generated by the previous `XML` node. Assuming the `XML` node places its output in a property like `data`, I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.data }}` to pull that content into the response body.\nCrucially, the prompt also asks for a specific content type: `application\/xml`. The `Respond to Webhook` node allows me to set custom `responseHeaders`. So, I'd add an entry to the `responseHeaders` list: `name` would be `content-type`, and its `value` would be `application\/xml`. This ensures that when the client receives the response, it correctly interprets the body as XML.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the requirements. Each node plays a specific role: triggering, data generation, data transformation, and finally, responding with the desired format and headers." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that reads a binary file named `spreadsheet.xls`, processes it with a Spreadsheet File node, and then inserts the data into a PostgreSQL `product` table, mapping columns to `name` and `ean` using `postgres` credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"filePath\": \"spreadsheet.xls\"}, \"name\": \"Read Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 650]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Spreadsheet File1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 650]}, {\"parameters\": {\"table\": \"product\", \"columns\": \"name,ean\"}, \"name\": \"Insert Rows1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.postgres\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [750, 650]}], \"connections\": {\"Read Binary File\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Spreadsheet File1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Spreadsheet File1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Insert Rows1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this n8n workflow designed. The goal here is quite clear: we need to read a binary Excel file, interpret its data, and then push that data into a PostgreSQL database table.\n\nSo, where do we start? The very first thing we need to do is get that file into the workflow. The user prompt specifies `spreadsheet.xls`, which implies a local file path. For that, the most direct approach is to use a node specifically designed to read files from the file system.\n\nI'm thinking the \"Read Binary File\" node, which is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile` and `typeVersion: 1`, is perfect for this. It's built for exactly this purpose \u2013 taking a file path and outputting the file's content as binary data. I'll place this as our initial node. Its most critical parameter will be `filePath`, and based on the requirements, I'll set that to `\"spreadsheet.xls\"`. This ensures the workflow knows exactly which file to look for and read.\n\nOnce we've read the binary file, what's next? The file is an `.xls` spreadsheet, and the prompt specifically mentions processing it with a \"Spreadsheet File node.\" This is very helpful because it tells me exactly what to use for the next step. The \"Spreadsheet File\" node (`type: n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile`, `typeVersion: 1`) is designed to take binary spreadsheet data as input, parse it, and then output structured JSON data, which is exactly what we'll need for inserting into a database.\n\nI'll connect the \"Read Binary File\" node's `main` output to the \"Spreadsheet File1\" node's `main` input. This ensures the binary content read from `spreadsheet.xls` is directly passed to the spreadsheet processor. Looking at its configuration, it seems like there are no specific parameters set for the \"Spreadsheet File1\" node, meaning it will likely just process the incoming binary data as-is, assuming a standard spreadsheet format. This is common if the node's default behavior is to intelligently detect the format and extract data.\n\nNow we have the spreadsheet data parsed into a structured format (likely an array of objects or similar, where each object represents a row). The final step, according to the prompt, is to insert this data into a PostgreSQL `product` table, mapping columns to `name` and `ean`.\n\nFor database interactions, the dedicated \"Postgres\" node is the obvious choice. So, I'll add \"Insert Rows1\", which is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.postgres` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node is designed to connect to a PostgreSQL database and perform various operations, including inserting data.\n\nI'll connect the `main` output of the \"Spreadsheet File1\" node to the `main` input of this new \"Insert Rows1\" PostgreSQL node. This way, the parsed spreadsheet data flows directly into the database insertion step.\n\nRegarding its configuration, two key parameters are needed. First, the `table` needs to be set to `\"product\"`, as specified in the prompt. Second, the `columns` parameter is crucial for mapping the incoming data to the correct database columns. The prompt says \"mapping columns to `name` and `ean`\", so I'll set this to `\"name,ean\"`. This tells the PostgreSQL node which columns in the `product` table it should populate with the incoming data.\n\nFinally, for security and proper connection, the node requires credentials. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"postgres\": \"postgres\"}`. This means it will use a pre-configured set of PostgreSQL credentials named \"postgres\". This is how n8n securely handles sensitive information like database connection strings, usernames, and passwords\u2014they are managed separately as credentials and referenced by name in the workflow nodes. I wouldn't specify the actual connection details here, but rather reference the existing credential set.\n\nAnd that completes the flow. We've gone from reading the binary file, processing its spreadsheet content, and then inserting the extracted data into the specified PostgreSQL table with the correct column mapping." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, adds a Trello card named 'Hello' with the description 'Here are some details'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"name\": \"Hello\", \"listId\": \"\", \"description\": \"Here are some details\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Trello\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.trello\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Trello\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow from scratch, thinking through each step based on the user's request and the provided JSON.\n\nThe user wants a workflow that, first and foremost, is \"manually triggered.\" This is a clear indicator that my starting point, the very first node in the workflow, needs to be a trigger that a human can initiate. The most suitable node for this in n8n is the `Manual Trigger` node. So, I'll go ahead and add that. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and according to the JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1`. I'll name it something descriptive like \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is what the JSON specifies. For the initial setup, it doesn't really need any specific parameters, so an empty `parameters` object `{}` is perfect. I'll place it on the canvas, perhaps around position `[250, 300]`, which is a common starting spot on the left side.\n\nNext, the user's goal is to \"add a Trello card.\" This tells me I'm going to need an integration with Trello. n8n provides a dedicated Trello node, which is exactly what I need. So, my next step is to add a Trello node to the workflow.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The `Manual Trigger`'s job is just to start the workflow. Once it's triggered, it should pass control to the Trello node to perform the card creation. This is a very straightforward, linear flow, so a single `main` connection from the `Manual Trigger` to the `Trello` node is appropriate. This means when the `Manual Trigger` fires, it simply tells the `Trello` node to execute.\n\nLet's configure the `Trello` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.trello` and `typeVersion` is `1`. I'll place it to the right of the trigger, maybe at `[450, 300]`, keeping the flow clear.\n\nThe user specifically requested a card \"named 'Hello' with the description 'Here are some details'.\" So, within the `Trello` node's parameters, I'll need to set the `name` field to 'Hello'. Similarly, for the card's details, I'll set the `description` field to 'Here are some details'. These are direct mappings from the user's prompt.\n\nOne crucial detail for creating a Trello card is that it must belong to a specific list on a Trello board. The JSON shows an empty `listId: \"\"`. This tells me that while the node is configured to create a card with a specific name and description, a user importing this workflow would still need to select or provide the actual ID of the Trello list where this card should be added. This is a common and necessary step because the workflow can't know which of *my* Trello lists I want to use; it's a piece of user-specific configuration that needs to be filled in. If this were a real build, I'd make a mental note that this field needs user attention.\n\nThe `additionalFields` object is empty, `{}`, which means we're not adding any extra properties to the Trello card beyond the name and description, such as members, labels, or a due date. This aligns perfectly with the simplicity of the user's request.\n\nFinally, for the `Trello` node to actually interact with Trello, it needs to authenticate. This is handled by credentials. The JSON has `credentials: {\"trelloApi\": \"\"}`. This means that a Trello API credential, which holds my authentication details for Trello, needs to be linked to this node. I wouldn't put actual API keys or tokens directly into the workflow JSON for security reasons; instead, n8n manages them separately. So, for this workflow to run, a Trello API credential would have to be set up in n8n and then selected within this `Trello` node's configuration.

The user wants a workflow that starts with a manual trigger, flows into a *disabled* code node (which specifically needs a syntax error within it), and then proceeds to a *working* code node that modifies data. On top of that, the entire workflow needs two specific tags.\n\nSo, the very first thing that comes to mind is how this workflow will be initiated. The prompt explicitly mentions a \"manual trigger.\" This is perfect for when a user wants to kick off a workflow directly from the n8n UI, perhaps for testing or a one-off execution.\n\nTherefore, the first node I'll place on my canvas will be a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the n8n JSON, this corresponds to a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'll name it something clear, like \"On clicking 'execute',\" which is exactly what the JSON shows. Its parameters are empty because it just serves as a start button; there's no configuration needed beyond its existence. I'd place it somewhere towards the left of my workflow canvas, as it's the entry point.\n\nNext, the prompt says this manual trigger \"connects to a disabled code node containing a JavaScript syntax error.\" This is an interesting requirement \u2013 a disabled node that also has an error. A \"Code\" node is exactly what I need for executing custom JavaScript.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Code** node. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.code` and `typeVersion: 1`. I need to ensure it's disabled. In n8n, there's a property for that, so I'll set `disabled: true` for this node. For its `jsCode` parameter, I need to intentionally introduce a syntax error. A simple standalone `error` keyword, as seen in the provided JSON, will definitely cause a JavaScript syntax error when the node *would* normally execute. This satisfies the \"syntax error\" part of the requirement. I'll give this node a descriptive name, perhaps \"Error\" to signify its purpose, which matches the JSON. I'd place it to the right of my Manual Trigger node.\n\nNow, I need to connect these two nodes. The output of my \"On clicking 'execute'\" Manual Trigger node should connect to the input of this \"Error\" Code node. This establishes the basic flow path. Even though the \"Error\" node is disabled, the connection itself is still valid. When a node is disabled in n8n, the workflow effectively skips its execution but still passes the execution flow to its next connected node.\n\nThe prompt then states, \"and this disabled node then connects to a working code node that adds a 'myNewField' to input items.\" This means another Code node is needed, but this one *must* be functional.\n\nSo, I'll add another **Code** node. Again, `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.code\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This time, it should *not* be disabled. For its `jsCode` parameter, the task is to add a field named `myNewField` to the input items. The standard way to do this in an n8n Code node is to loop through `$input.all()` and modify `item.json`. So, the JavaScript code would look something like `for (const item of $input.all()) { item.json.myNewField = 1; } return $input.all();`. This ensures each incoming item gets the new field. I'll name this node \"Code,\" as per the JSON, and place it to the right of the \"Error\" node.\n\nFinally, I need to connect the \"Error\" Code node to this new \"Code\" node. The output of the \"Error\" node will connect to the input of the \"Code\" node. This ensures that when the workflow runs, even though the \"Error\" node is disabled and skipped, the execution path continues directly to the working \"Code\" node.\n\nOne last thing mentioned in the prompt is to \"Add two tags named 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2' to the workflow.\" These aren't nodes, but rather properties of the workflow itself, which help with organization and filtering in the n8n UI. So, I would go to the workflow settings and add these tags. The JSON confirms they are `\"some-tag-1\"` and `\"some-tag-2\"`, with their respective IDs and timestamps. These are purely for organizational purposes and don't affect the workflow's execution logic.\n\nAnd that completes the setup based on the requirements. The flow starts manually, attempts to go through a disabled (and erroneous) node, effectively skips it, and then processes data in a functional code node, all while being properly tagged." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that uses an \"Error Trigger\" node to catch workflow errors and sends an email notification via Mailgun.

The goal is pretty clear: we need to catch any errors that occur in *other* workflows and then send out an email notification with all the relevant details. This is a crucial piece for maintaining robust automation, as we want to be immediately aware if something breaks.\n\nSo, where do we start? To *catch* errors, n8n has a dedicated node for that. Looking at the prompt and the provided JSON, the \"Error Trigger\" node is precisely what we need. It's designed to listen for errors globally or for specific workflows, acting as a kind of central error handler.\n\nLet's add that first.\n**Node 1: Error Trigger**\n* **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.errorTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nWhy this node first? Because it's the *start* of our error handling process. It doesn't receive input from another node in the traditional sense; rather, it's activated when an error occurs elsewhere in n8n. Its purpose is solely to be the entry point for error events. As for its parameters, typically, the \"Error Trigger\" node doesn't require much configuration unless you want to filter for specific workflow IDs or error types, which isn't the case here according to the JSON. It's set up to catch general errors, which is good for broad coverage.\n\nNow that we have our error catcher, what's the next step? The requirement is to send an email notification. The prompt specifically mentions Mailgun, and the JSON confirms we'll be using a Mailgun node. This is a common and effective way to send programmatic emails.\n\nSo, the \"Mailgun\" node will be the next logical step, connected directly to our \"Error Trigger.\" When an error is caught by the \"Error Trigger,\" it will then pass the error details to the \"Mailgun\" node so we can compose our notification.\n\nLet's place that \"Mailgun\" node and set up the connection.\n**Node 2: Mailgun**\n* **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.mailgun`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThe connection is straightforward: The \"Error Trigger\" node's `main` output should connect to the \"Mailgun\" node's `main` input. This ensures that the data containing all the error information\u2014like the error message, stack trace, and workflow name\u2014is passed along for us to use in the email.\n\nNow for the crucial part: configuring the \"Mailgun\" node to send a useful email. This is where we'll leverage the data provided by the \"Error Trigger\" node. The JSON gives us clear instructions on what to include dynamically.\n\nFirst, let's think about the email's subject line. We want it to be informative at a glance. The prompt asks for the workflow name where the error occurred. The `Error Trigger` node, when activated, provides context about the original execution that failed. This context includes the workflow's name.\n\n* **Subject:** We'll use an expression here to pull that dynamic data. The JSON shows `\"=Workflow Error: {{$node[\\\"Error Trigger\\\"].data[\\\"workflow\\\"][\\\"name\\\"]}}\"`. This is perfect. It explicitly accesses the `data` output of the \"Error Trigger\" node, then drills down to `workflow` and then `name`. This ensures our subject line clearly states which workflow encountered an issue, like \"Workflow Error: My Daily Report Generation.\"\n\nNext, the body of the email. This is where we need to include the actual error message and the stack trace for debugging purposes. Again, the `Error Trigger` node provides this information in its output data.\n\n* **Text:** The JSON defines this as a multi-line expression:\n ```\n \"=Error: {{$node[\\\"Error Trigger\\\"].data[\\\"execution\\\"][\\\"error\\\"][\\\"message\\\"]}}\\n\\nStack Trace:\\n{{$node[\\\"Error Trigger\\\"].data[\\\"execution\\\"][\\\"error\\\"][\\\"stack\\\"]}}\"\n ```\n This looks exactly right. It starts with \"Error: \" and then dynamically inserts the error `message` from the `error` object within the `execution` data provided by the \"Error Trigger\" node. The `\\n\\n` creates a line break for readability, followed by \"Stack Trace:\" and then another line break before inserting the full `stack` trace. This is incredibly helpful for developers to quickly pinpoint the problem without having to dig through n8n logs.\n\nFinally, we need to consider the sender and recipient email addresses, and the Mailgun API credentials.\n* **To Email:** This field needs to be configured with the recipient's email address \u2013 likely an operations team or developer's inbox. The JSON leaves this empty `\"\"`, indicating it's a value that needs to be manually set by the user based on their specific notification requirements.\n* **From Email:** Similarly, the sending email address needs to be configured here. Again, it's left empty `\"\"` in the JSON, expecting the user to provide a valid Mailgun-configured sender email.\n* **Credentials:** For the `Mailgun` node to actually send emails, it requires authentication. This is handled via `credentials`. The JSON indicates `{\"mailgunApi\": \"\"}`, meaning a Mailgun API credential will need to be selected or created here. This would typically involve providing a private API key obtained from the Mailgun dashboard.\n\nSo, to summarize the Mailgun configuration:\n* We dynamically pull the workflow name for the subject.\n* We dynamically pull the error message and stack trace for the email body.\n* The `toEmail`, `fromEmail`, and `credentials` are placeholders that need to be filled in with specific, sensitive information by the user configuring the workflow.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The \"Error Trigger\" waits for an error, captures all its details, and then passes them to the \"Mailgun\" node, which meticulously crafts and sends an email with all the necessary information for quick troubleshooting. This creates a robust and reactive error handling system." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON that begins with a 'Manual Trigger' node named 'When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019', sequentially connected to two 'Set' nodes named 'Edit Fields' and 'Edit Fields1'.

The first thing I always consider is how the workflow will kick off. The prompt is pretty clear on this: it needs to begin with a 'Manual Trigger'. So, that's where I'll start.\n\nI'll add a 'Manual Trigger' node. This is perfect because it allows someone to manually initiate the workflow, which is exactly what \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" implies. For its type, I'll use `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and based on the provided JSON, `typeVersion` 1 seems to be the one in use. I'll name it \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" as requested. This node doesn't really need any specific configuration parameters beyond its name and type; its purpose is simply to start the execution flow.\n\nNext, the prompt says this trigger needs to be \"sequentially connected to two 'Set' nodes\". So, the immediate next step in the flow should be the first of these 'Set' nodes. I'm thinking about what kind of operations we usually perform right after a trigger, and often it's about preparing or manipulating data for subsequent steps. A 'Set' node is ideal for this because it allows you to add, rename, or remove fields from the incoming data, or even to create new data from scratch.\n\nSo, I'll connect the 'Manual Trigger' to a 'Set' node. I'll make sure it's a `main` connection so the data flows directly from the trigger into this 'Set' node. The JSON tells me this node is named \"Edit Fields\". It's of type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and the `typeVersion` is 3.2. As for its internal parameters, the JSON shows `{ \"options\": {} }`, which means it's set up with default options or no specific fields are being manipulated in this example. If we were actually modifying data, we'd go into the parameters and specify exactly what fields to add, change, or remove. For instance, we might add a new field called 'timestamp' or set a status. But for now, it's just a placeholder for data manipulation.\n\nNow, we need the second 'Set' node, and it's also part of the sequential flow. So, it makes sense for it to directly follow \"Edit Fields\". I'll connect \"Edit Fields\" to this new 'Set' node, again using a `main` connection. This ensures that any data processed or modified by \"Edit Fields\" is passed directly to this next stage. This node is named \"Edit Fields1\", according to the prompt. It's also of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion` 3.2, just like the previous one. Similarly, its parameters are `{ \"options\": {} }`, indicating a default or empty configuration. In a real-world scenario, we might use this second 'Set' node to refine the data further, perhaps filtering it or adding more complex calculations based on what the first 'Set' node prepared.\n\nSo, at this point, I've got the core, sequential part of the workflow: 'Manual Trigger' -> 'Set (Edit Fields)' -> 'Set (Edit Fields1)'. This covers the main flow described.\n\nNow, the prompt also mentions two \"additional, unconnected nodes.\" This is interesting; they're not part of the main data flow, meaning they'd just sit there, perhaps waiting to be integrated later, or maybe they serve some specialized, independent purpose. They're explicitly stated to be unconnected.\n\nThe first of these is named \"Unknown node 1\". Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist`, and `typeVersion` 1. Since the name and type suggest it's a custom or perhaps a placeholder for a future node, I'll just place it on the canvas without any connections. It's purely a visual element right now, serving as a marker for something that might be built or imported later. Its parameters are empty, as expected for a node type that doesn't actually exist in the base set.\n\nSimilarly, the second unconnected node is named \"Unknown node 2\". Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither`, also with `typeVersion` 1. Just like the first \"Unknown\" node, this one will be placed separately on the canvas. It's a completely standalone component within the workflow definition. No connections, no specific parameters beyond what's defined by its unique, non-standard type. It just exists as part of the overall workflow structure.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers all the requirements for building this workflow. I've got the trigger, the sequential processing steps, and the two standalone nodes, all with their specified names, types, and connections (or lack thereof)." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"Cron to Update OpenDays of SNID\" that triggers daily at 6:30 AM (cron '30 6 * * *').

How do we make this workflow run daily at a specific time? That immediately brings to mind a \"Schedule Trigger\" node. This is the perfect fit because its whole purpose is to initiate a workflow based on a defined schedule, like a cron expression. So, I'd drag a \"Schedule Trigger\" onto the canvas.\n\nLooking at the JSON, this node is of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1.1`. The `typeVersion` indicates the specific version of the node, which might have minor UI or parameter changes compared to older or newer versions, but the core functionality remains the same for this basic trigger.\n\nNow, how do we configure this \"Schedule Trigger\" to run daily at 6:30 AM? The prompt specifically mentions 'cron '30 6 * * *''. This is a standard cron expression.\n* The '30' refers to the 30th minute past the hour.\n* The '6' refers to the 6th hour (which is 6 AM).\n* The three asterisks `* * *` mean \"every day of the month,\" \"every month,\" and \"every day of the week,\" respectively.\nSo, I'd configure the schedule trigger's parameters, specifically its `rule` and within that, the `interval`, to use a `cronExpression` set to `30 6 * * *`. This ensures our workflow kicks off precisely when needed, every single day.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, what's the next step? The prompt says it needs to \"execute a Microsoft SQL query\". This tells me I'll need a node that can connect to and interact with a Microsoft SQL Server database. The \"Microsoft SQL\" node is the obvious choice for this. I'd drag that onto the canvas next.\n\nThis \"Microsoft SQL\" node, according to the JSON, is of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.microsoftSql\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. Again, the `typeVersion` is just the specific iteration of that node's code.\n\nNow, how do we connect these two nodes? The output of the \"Schedule Trigger\" needs to feed into the \"Microsoft SQL\" node. There's no data being passed *between* them in terms of payload content, but the connection simply signifies the flow of execution. So, I'd draw a `main` connection from the \"Schedule Trigger\" to the \"Microsoft SQL\" node. This means after the schedule trigger fires, it tells the Microsoft SQL node to activate.\n\nNext, I need to configure the \"Microsoft SQL\" node. The prompt specifies a particular query: `'UPDATE Site_Notices SET Open_Days = dbo.CountWorkdays(Created, GETDATE())'`.\nThe \"Microsoft SQL\" node has an `operation` parameter, and for running a custom query like this, `executeQuery` is the correct choice. This operation allows me to input any valid SQL statement.\nSo, under the `parameters`, I'd set `operation` to `executeQuery`.\nThen, for the `query` parameter, I would paste the exact SQL statement: `UPDATE Site_Notices\\nSET Open_Days = dbo.CountWorkdays(Created, GETDATE())`. This query updates the `Open_Days` column in the `Site_Notices` table by calculating the number of workdays between the `Created` date and the current date, using a SQL function named `dbo.CountWorkdays`. This function `dbo.CountWorkdays` is presumed to exist within the SQL database.\n\nFinally, for the \"Microsoft SQL\" node to connect to the database, it needs credentials. The prompt explicitly mentions using the `'Cairnmead MSSQL'` credentials. In n8n, credentials are managed separately and then referenced by nodes. So, I would select the pre-configured `microsoftSql` credentials with the ID `pnk4eGN7LenljlZH` and the name \"Cairnmead MSSQL\". This tells the node which set of connection details (like server address, database name, username, password \u2013 which are all stored securely *within* the credential asset, not in the workflow JSON itself) to use when trying to execute the query.\n\nThat essentially covers all the requirements. The workflow is named \"Cron to Update OpenDays of SNID\" as requested. It's active, meaning it will run. It triggers daily at 6:30 AM, and it executes the specified SQL query using the correct credentials. There aren't any further nodes or complex data transformations needed here, as it's a straightforward trigger-and-execute pattern." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFileChainofThought' that starts with a Webhook, retrieves content from the Google Docs URL 'https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1K0Y-OxyIV0auMN0CKe8tWUb4uSimFFIWZQCWaEvKQo4\/view', and responds to the webhook with the retrieved document's content as plain text.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFileChainofThought\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"ad3c9f90-e39e-49dc-b2f5-2a37fcda26ab\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1K0Y-OxyIV0auMN0CKe8tWUb4uSimFFIWZQCWaEvKQo4\/view\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants an n8n workflow, starting with a Webhook, to grab content from a specific Google Docs URL and then send that content back as plain text. This sounds like a pretty straightforward sequence of operations.\n\nFirst off, we need a way to trigger this workflow externally. The prompt explicitly states it starts with a Webhook. So, the very first thing I'd add to the canvas is a **Webhook** node. This node, with `type: n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion: 2`, is perfect because it gives us a unique URL that can be called from outside n8n to initiate the workflow.\n\nWhen I configure this Webhook node, I'd set its `path` parameter. This path is like the specific address for this particular webhook endpoint \u2013 it's a unique identifier within n8n that an external system would hit. Crucially, for a workflow that's going to respond with data processed by later nodes, I need to make sure the `responseMode` is set to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node, \"Don't send an immediate response yourself; wait for a dedicated response node later in the workflow to handle it.\" If I were to leave it as 'lastNode', the webhook would try to respond once its own execution is complete, before the Google Docs content is even fetched, which isn't what we want here.\n\nNext, the core of this workflow is retrieving content from a Google Docs URL. For that, we'll need a node that can specifically interact with Google Docs. The obvious choice here is the **Google Docs** node. Its `type: n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion: 2` mean it's purpose-built for this kind of integration.\n\nI'll connect the Webhook node's `main` output to the Google Docs node's `main` input. This ensures that once the webhook is triggered, the execution flows directly to the Google Docs retrieval step.\n\nWhen configuring the Google Docs node, the `operation` parameter needs to be set to `get`, because our goal is to retrieve information *from* the document. There would also be a `documentURL` parameter where the specific Google Docs link would be provided. For this node to work, it's essential that it has valid credentials configured, allowing n8n to authenticate with Google Docs and access the specified document. This would typically involve setting up a Google Docs OAuth2 API credential. Without that, it simply wouldn't be able to fetch any content.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that the workflow needs to \"respond to the webhook with the retrieved document's content as plain text.\" This means we need a node specifically designed to send back a response to the waiting webhook.

It has `type: n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion: 1.1`.\n\nI'll connect the output of the Google Docs node to the input of the Respond to Webhook node. This ensures that the response is only sent *after* the Google Docs content has been successfully retrieved.\n\nIn the Respond to Webhook node's configuration, I need to specify how the response should be formatted and what content it should contain. The prompt asks for plain text, so I'd set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`. For the `responseBody`, I need to pull the content that the Google Docs node just fetched. Typically, a 'get' operation on a document will output the document's content in a field like `content` in its JSON output. So, I would use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` in the `responseBody` field. This expression tells n8n to take the `content` property from the JSON output of the previous node (which is the Google Docs node in this case) and use it as the body of the text response.\n\nAnd that completes the flow.

The main requirement is that it needs to trigger \"every day at 8 AM\". So, the very first thing that comes to mind is a node that can handle time-based scheduling.\n\nFor that, I'd look for a \"Schedule Trigger\" node. This node type, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` (with `typeVersion: 1.2` in this case), is absolutely perfect for setting up recurring workflows based on a time schedule. I'd drag that onto my canvas. Once I have it, I need to configure it. The prompt specifies \"every day at 8 AM\", so I'd go into its parameters and set the rule. I'd look for an option like `triggerAtHour` within the `interval` settings, and I'd set that value to `8`. This ensures that exactly at 8 AM each day, this workflow will kick off.\n\nNow that the workflow is triggered daily, what's the next step? The goal is to send an email. Before I send the email, I need to make sure I have all the pieces of information for it: the subject and the body content. I could technically hardcode these directly into the email sending node, but it's often cleaner and more organized to prepare the data beforehand.\n\nSo, a good next node would be a \"Set\" node. This node type, `n8n-nodes-base.set` (with `typeVersion: 3.4`), is excellent for taking incoming data and adding new fields or modifying existing ones. It acts like a data preparation step. I'd connect the `main` output of my \"Schedule Trigger\" node to the `main` input of this new \"Set\" node. The `Schedule Trigger` simply passes an empty item to signal the start, and the `Set` node will then add the necessary email details to that item.\n\nWithin this \"Set\" node, which I'll call \"Edit Fields\", I'd add two assignments. The first assignment would be a new field named `subject`, and its value would be the string \"Your Daily Reminder\", as specified in the prompt. The second assignment would be a new field named `body`, and its value would be the string \"Don't forget to review your task list and prioritize your day!\". By doing this, the data item flowing through my workflow will now contain these two pieces of information, ready for the email sending step.\n\nFinally, with the trigger set and the email content prepared, the last step is to actually send the email. For this, I'll need an \"Email Send\" node. This node type, `n8n-nodes-base.emailSend` (with `typeVersion: 2.1`), is specifically designed for sending emails. I'd connect the `main` output of my \"Edit Fields\" (Set) node to the `main` input of this \"Send Email\" node. This ensures that the email sending node receives the data containing the subject and body that we just prepared.\n\nNow, for configuring the \"Email Send\" node:\n* For the `fromEmail` field, while the prompt specifies the recipient, it implies the email will be sent from an account that is configured. In a real scenario, this would likely be an email address associated with the SMTP credentials being used. The JSON shows it's set to `ciaranomahoney@gmail.com` here.\n* For the `toEmail` field, the prompt explicitly states \"send an email to `ciaranomahoney@gmail.com`\", so I'd enter that email address directly into this field.\n* For the `subject`, instead of hardcoding it, I want to use the value I prepared in the previous \"Set\" node. So, I'd use an expression: `={{$json[\"subject\"]}}`. This dynamically pulls the `subject` field from the data item flowing into this node.\n* Similarly, for the `html` field (which will be the email body), I'd use another expression: `={{$json[\"body\"]}}`. This fetches the `body` content we prepared.\n* Crucially, the prompt states \"Ensure it uses an SMTP account for sending.\" This means I need to link an SMTP credential to this node. I'd select an existing SMTP account credential, which would have been configured separately with details like a host, port, username, and password for an SMTP server. The JSON shows a credential named \"SMTP account\" linked here. This ensures the email is sent using a proper email service.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow starts at 8 AM, prepares the email content, and then sends it using the configured SMTP account." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger. It should then read a binary file located at `\/data\/picture.jpg`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [270, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"filePath\": \"\/data\/picture.jpg\"}, \"name\": \"Read Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [470, 320]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Read Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start designing this workflow from the ground up, keeping in mind the user's request: \"Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger. It should then read a binary file located at `\/data\/picture.jpg`.\"\n\nThe very first thing I need to think about is how this workflow is going to get started. The prompt explicitly says it should begin with a \"manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me I'll need a node that allows a user to initiate the workflow directly, by clicking a button in the n8n interface.\n\nFor this, the `manualTrigger` node is the perfect fit. It's designed exactly for scenarios where you want to kick off a workflow on demand.\n\nSo, my first node will be:\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`. This is a fundamental node, and `typeVersion: 1` suggests it's a stable and complete implementation for its core purpose. I don't anticipate any advanced configuration or different behavior being necessary from a newer version for a simple manual trigger.\n* **Configuration:** For a `manualTrigger` node, there aren't typically any specific parameters needed beyond its basic function. It simply provides an execution signal. I'll give it a descriptive name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" to make its purpose clear within the workflow. Its position on the canvas, `[270, 320]`, places it nicely at the beginning of the flow, typically on the left side.\n\nNow that I have a way to start the workflow, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"read a binary file located at `\/data\/picture.jpg`.\" This means I need a node that can interact with the file system and specifically fetch the contents of a file, especially since it's a `.jpg` which implies binary data.\n\nThinking about n8n's built-in capabilities for file operations, the `readBinaryFile` node comes to mind immediately. Its name clearly indicates its purpose: reading binary files. This is exactly what's required for an image file like a JPG.\n\nSo, my second node will be:\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile`\n* **Type Version:** `1`. Similar to the `manualTrigger`, this is a core file system operation. Version `1` implies a mature and reliable implementation. For simple file reading, I wouldn't expect significant behavioral differences or missing features in this version compared to a hypothetical newer one.\n* **Configuration:** This node definitely needs one crucial piece of information: the path to the file it needs to read. The prompt specifies `\/data\/picture.jpg`. So, I'll set the `filePath` parameter for this node to `\"\/data\/picture.jpg\"`. This tells the node exactly where to look for the image file. I'll name it \"Read Binary File\" to reflect its action. Its position, `[470, 320]`, places it to the right of the trigger node, setting up a clear visual flow.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The prompt states that the workflow \"starts with a manual trigger. *It should then* read a binary file...\" The \"then\" implies a direct, sequential execution. The `manualTrigger` should initiate the `readBinaryFile` node.\n\n* **Connection:** I'll take the `main` output of the `manualTrigger` node (\"On clicking 'execute'\") and connect it to the `main` input of the `readBinaryFile` node (\"Read Binary File\"). When the `manualTrigger` is activated, it will pass an execution signal down its `main` output. The `readBinaryFile` node, receiving this signal on its `main` input, will then execute its operation \u2013 reading the specified file. The JSON confirms this connection perfectly: `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Read Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This ensures the flow of execution is exactly as described. The data (the binary file contents) would then be available as output from the `Read Binary File` node for any subsequent processing, though no further steps are specified in this particular request." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers manually, waits for 2 seconds, and then flows into a 'Set' node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Manual wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [900, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Manual\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1120, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Manual\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this n8n workflow built. The request is quite straightforward: a manual trigger, a 2-second wait, and then into a Set node. This sounds like a good starting point for many workflows where you need a controlled delay.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to *start* the workflow. The prompt explicitly says \"triggers manually.\" So, the very first node I'll reach for has to be a trigger, and specifically a manual one.\n\nLooking at the n8n nodes, the `Manual Trigger` node is exactly what I need. Its full type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is 1, which is standard for a current basic trigger. I'll place this node first in my workflow design. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters itself; it's just a button you click to kick things off. Simple and effective for testing or for workflows that are meant to be started by a user directly. I'll give it the name \"Manual\" as per the JSON, which is perfectly descriptive.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow needs to \"wait for 2 seconds.\" This is a clear indicator that I'll need a `Wait` node. After the `Manual` trigger fires, the execution needs to pause for a specified duration. The `Wait` node is perfect for this. I'll connect it directly from the `Manual` node's primary output. The data will simply flow through; the `Wait` node doesn't modify the data it receives, it just holds onto it for a bit.\n\nFor the `Wait` node, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.wait`, and again, `typeVersion` 1. Now, how do I configure it for \"2 seconds\"? The JSON shows `amount: 2` and `unit: \"seconds\"`. This is exactly how I'd set it up. I'd go into the node's parameters, find the \"Amount\" field and set it to `2`, then select \"seconds\" from the \"Unit\" dropdown. This ensures the workflow pauses for the requested duration before moving on. I'll name this node \"Wait\" to keep it clear.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"and then flows into a 'Set' node.\" So, after the 2-second wait, the workflow should continue into a `Set` node. This node is incredibly versatile in n8n; it's used to add, remove, or modify data fields on the incoming items. In this specific case, the JSON shows its parameters as just `{\"options\": {}}`, which means no specific fields are being set yet. This is often how a `Set` node is added as a placeholder or as the final step in a simple flow, ready for future data manipulation, or just to serve as a designated end point for a segment of the workflow.\n\nI'll connect the `Wait` node's main output to the `Set` node's main input. This ensures that once the 2-second delay is over, the execution, along with any data items that came from the `Manual` trigger and passed through the `Wait` node, will then arrive at the `Set` node. The `Set` node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and `typeVersion` is 1. I'll name it \"Set\".\n\nSo, to recap the flow visually and logically:\n1. **Manual Trigger (\"Manual\")**: Initiates the workflow when manually executed.\n2. **Connection (main)**: Passes the initial execution signal (and any default item data) from \"Manual\" to \"Wait\".\n3. **Wait Node (\"Wait\")**: Receives the signal, pauses for exactly 2 seconds as configured, then releases the execution.\n4. **Connection (main)**: Passes the execution signal (and item data) from \"Wait\" to \"Set\" after the delay.\n5. **Set Node (\"Set\")**: Receives the signal and items, and in this current configuration, it won't modify them, acting as the final step of this basic sequence.\n\nThis structure perfectly fulfills the user's request. It's a clean, sequential flow that demonstrates the use of a manual trigger, a time delay, and a data manipulation node." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, converts JSON data into a binary file named `standup-bot-config.json` and writes it to the `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/` directory.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [240, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"jsonToBinary\", \"options\": {\"encoding\": \"utf8\", \"fileName\": \"standup-bot-config.json\"}}, \"name\": \"Move Binary Data\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [420, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Move Binary Data\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Move Binary Data\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this workflow. The goal is pretty clear: we need to manually trigger something, take some JSON, convert it into a binary file, and then save it to a specific location with a specific name.\n\nFirst things first, the prompt explicitly states \"when manually triggered.\" So, the very first node in our workflow has to be a trigger that we can just click to start the whole process.\n\n**Node 1: Manual Trigger**\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This is the most straightforward way to initiate a workflow on demand. When someone clicks \"Execute Workflow\" in n8n, this node kicks everything off. It doesn't need any complex setup for this purpose; its default behavior of simply firing an event when clicked is exactly what we need. The `parameters: {}` in the JSON confirms it's used in its simplest form.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"converts JSON data into a binary file.\" This is the core transformation step. I need a node that can take structured JSON data and effectively serialize it into a raw binary format. This isn't just about writing a file, it's about preparing the data *before* writing.\n\n**Node 2: Move Binary Data**\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node is perfect for manipulating binary data within n8n. It has various modes, and critically, one of them is `jsonToBinary`. This is exactly what we need here \u2013 it takes the input item's JSON data (or an empty JSON object if none is explicitly provided, which would convert `{}` to binary) and converts it into a binary property attached to the item.\n* **Configuration:**\n * `mode: \"jsonToBinary\"`: This is the absolute key parameter. It tells the node to perform the specific conversion we require.\n * `options: {\"encoding\": \"utf8\", \"fileName\": \"standup-bot-config.json\"}`:\n * `encoding: \"utf8\"`: When converting textual data like JSON to binary, it's vital to specify the character encoding. UTF-8 is a widely compatible and robust choice, ensuring that characters are correctly represented in the binary output.\n * `fileName: \"standup-bot-config.json\"`: This option here is quite useful. While the *final* file name and path will be set in the actual file writing node, this parameter gives the *internal* binary property a name within the n8n item. This makes it explicit what this binary data represents and helps if you have multiple binary properties floating around. It aligns perfectly with the target file name mentioned in the prompt.\n* **Connection:** This node needs to receive the trigger signal from our `On clicking 'execute'` node. So, the output of the `manualTrigger` will feed into the input of this `Move Binary Data` node. The manual trigger typically passes an empty item, so if there were no preceding nodes generating JSON, this node would convert an empty JSON object (`{}`) into a binary stream, which is a perfectly valid way to create an empty configuration file.\n\nFinally, after we've got our JSON data transformed into a binary format, we need to \"write it to the `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/` directory\" and name it `standup-bot-config.json`. This clearly points to a file system operation.\n\n**Node 3: Write Binary File**\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node is specifically designed for writing binary data properties from n8n items to a specified location on the file system where n8n is running.\n* **Configuration:**\n * `fileName: \"\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json\"`: This is the crucial part that fulfills the last requirement of the prompt. It's a combination of the absolute path (`\/home\/node\/.n8n\/`) and the desired file name (`standup-bot-config.json`). The node will take the binary data it receives and write it to this exact path.\n* **Connection:** This node must receive the binary data that was prepared by the `Move Binary Data` node. So, the output of the `Move Binary Data` node (which now contains our `standup-bot-config.json` binary property) will connect directly to the input of this `Write Binary File` node.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it! The workflow flows logically from triggering, to data transformation, to file writing." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

I'll need a trigger node that allows me to kick off the workflow whenever I want, typically for testing or if it's meant to be run on demand.\n\nSo, the very first node I'll drag onto the canvas will be a `Manual Trigger` node. Looking at the JSON, this corresponds to the node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. Its name, \"When clicking \u2018Execute workflow\u2019\", is the default user-friendly name, which is perfect for its purpose. This node is ideal because, well, it's a manual trigger! It doesn't listen for external events or schedules; it simply waits for a user to click \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n UI. The `typeVersion: 1` suggests it's a stable, foundational version of this node, and for a simple trigger like this, there usually isn't much difference across minor versions unless new features were added that aren't relevant here.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"connect this to a 'Set' node that sets a field named 'body' to an XML string.\" This immediately tells me what the next node should be. A 'Set' node is incredibly useful for manipulating data directly within the workflow. It's not for making API calls or reading files; it's for creating, modifying, or deleting fields on the incoming items.\n\nSo, I'll connect the output of my `Manual Trigger` node to a `Set` node. The JSON shows this connection clearly: `When clicking \u2018Execute workflow\u2019` connects its `main` output to `Edit Fields`'s `main` input.\n\nNow, let's configure this `Set` node. The JSON specifies `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` and `typeVersion: 3.2`. The name \"Edit Fields\" is also its default. The `typeVersion: 3.2` indicates a more recent iteration of the Set node, which often brings improvements in UI, expression handling, or perhaps how it handles different data types, but its core functionality of setting fields remains the same.\n\nThe core requirement for this node is to \"set a field named 'body' to an XML string.\" Inside the `parameters` of the `Set` node, I can see the `fields` array. This is where I define what fields to add or modify.\nIt has a `values` array, and within that, there's an object: `{\"name\": \"body\", \"stringValue\": \"...\"}`. This is exactly what I need. I'll add a new field (or modify if it existed) named `body`.\nThe value for this `body` field needs to be an XML string. I'll choose the \"String\" option for the value type within the Set node's configuration (which corresponds to `stringValue` in the JSON). Then, I'll carefully paste in the entire XML string provided.\n\nThe XML string itself describes a library with multiple books, each having a title, author, publication year, and ISBN. This XML data will become the content of the `body` field on the item that passes through this Set node. It's crucial that the XML is well-formed, as any syntax errors would just result in a malformed string being stored, which could cause issues for subsequent nodes trying to parse it.\n\nSo, the `Manual Trigger` starts the execution. It doesn't typically output any data items on its own unless configured to, but it always triggers the next node. The `Set` node then receives this trigger, creates a new item (or takes the existing one if any came from the trigger, which is none in this case), and on that item, it adds a field named `body` with the specified XML content.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow as described is complete.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to set up a regular schedule, pull some data from a Google Sheet, transform it into an XLS file, and then push that file up to Dropbox.\n\nSo, first things first, we need to address the \"triggers every 15 minutes\" part. For scheduling, n8n has a dedicated node for that. I'd definitely go for the **Interval node**. It's perfect for recurring tasks.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.interval`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This is the standard way to set up a time-based trigger in n8n. It allows us to specify how often the workflow should run.\n* **Configuration:** Looking at the prompt, \"every 15 minutes,\" I'd configure its parameters to set the `unit` to `minutes` and the `interval` to `15`. This directly translates the user's requirement into the node's settings.

This would be the unique identifier for the specific Google Sheet document. Also, it will require appropriate Google API credentials to authenticate and access the user's Google Drive and Sheet data.\n* **Connection:** This Google Sheets node will receive the trigger signal from our `Trigger all 15 min` Interval node. Once triggered, it will fetch the data from the specified sheet and pass that data along to the next step.\n\nNow we have the data from the Google Sheet. The prompt then says we need to \"convert its data to an XLS file.\" This is a transformation step. The **Spreadsheet File node** is the perfect tool for this kind of operation.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node is built for handling spreadsheet data, including converting data into various file formats.\n* **Configuration:** The key parameter here is `operation`. We'll set this to `toFile`. This tells the node to take the incoming data (which will be the tabular data from the Google Sheet node) and convert it into a file. While the JSON doesn't explicitly show a `fileFormat` parameter, the node name \"Convert to XLS\" strongly implies that the output format is configured to be XLS. This node will take the structured data it receives and package it into a binary XLS file.\n* **Connection:** This `Convert to XLS` node will receive the data output from the `Read Sheet` Google Sheets node. The connection will ensure the sheet data flows directly into the conversion process.\n\nFinally, we have our XLS file, and the last requirement is to \"upload it to `\/my-sheets\/prices.xls` in Dropbox.\" This clearly calls for a **Dropbox node**.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.dropbox`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node provides direct integration with Dropbox for file operations, including uploading.\n* **Configuration:** We need to specify where the file should go. The `path` parameter will be set to `\/my-sheets\/prices.xls`, matching the exact destination specified in the prompt. Importantly, since the `Convert to XLS` node outputs a binary file, we need to ensure the `binaryData` parameter is set to `true`. This tells the Dropbox node to expect and correctly handle the raw file content it receives. Of course, this node will also require valid Dropbox API credentials to authenticate with the user's Dropbox account.\n* **Connection:** The `Upload Dropbox` node will receive the binary XLS file from the `Convert to XLS` Spreadsheet File node. This ensures the newly created file is immediately sent to Dropbox.\n\nAnd that completes the thought process for setting up this workflow, node by node, covering the trigger, data acquisition, transformation, and final delivery." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a Webhook, expecting a `crc_token` query parameter. This token should then be used in a Crypto node to perform a SHA256 HMAC with \"API KEY SECRET\" and base64 encoding, and finally, a Set node should create a `response_token` by prepending \"sha256=\" to the HMAC output, with the webhook responding only with this new token.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"0db0a40c-e5d1-463f-8252-03599f1303e6\", \"options\": {}, \"responseMode\": \"lastNode\"}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"type\": \"SHA256\", \"value\": \"={{$json[\\\"query\\\"][\\\"crc_token\\\"]}}\", \"action\": \"hmac\", \"secret\": \"API KEY SECRET\", \"encoding\": \"base64\"}, \"name\": \"Crypto\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.crypto\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [660, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"string\": [{\"name\": \"response_token\", \"value\": \"=sha256={{$json[\\\"data\\\"]}}\"}]}, \"options\": {}, \"keepOnlySet\": true}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [840, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Crypto\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Crypto\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start by mapping out this workflow step-by-step, just as I would if I were building it from scratch.\n\nThe very first requirement is to have a starting point that can receive external requests. That immediately tells me I need a **Webhook** node. This is a fundamental node in n8n for exposing a workflow as an API endpoint. So, I'd pull out an `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, `typeVersion: 1`. Once it's on the canvas, I'd think about its configuration. The prompt mentions it should expect a `crc_token` query parameter. While the Webhook node itself doesn't explicitly configure *which* parameters it expects, it will automatically capture any that come in. The most crucial setting for this particular workflow, given the final output requirement, is the `responseMode`. I would set this to `\"lastNode\"`. This means the Webhook will wait for the very last connected node to complete and then use that node's output as its HTTP response. The `path` parameter would just be a unique endpoint identifier for this specific webhook.\n\nNext, the prompt states that the `crc_token` received by the Webhook needs to be processed using a SHA256 HMAC operation. This immediately brings to mind the **Crypto** node. This node is designed specifically for cryptographic operations, so it's a perfect fit. I'd add an `n8n-nodes-base.crypto` node, `typeVersion: 1`, and connect it directly from the Webhook node. This ensures the data from the incoming webhook request is passed to the Crypto node for processing.\n\nNow, to configure this Crypto node. The requirements are quite clear:\n- The `action` needs to be `\"hmac\"`.\n- The cryptographic `type` or algorithm is \"SHA256\".\n- The `secret` for the HMAC operation is explicitly given as \"API KEY SECRET\". This would be entered directly into the secret field. In a real-world scenario, you might pull this from a secure credential store, but for this workflow, the literal string is used.\n- The `encoding` for the resulting hash should be `\"base64\"`.\n\nThe most vital piece of configuration here is providing the `value` to be hashed. This needs to be the `crc_token` from the incoming webhook request's query parameters. N8n makes this easy with expressions. Query parameters from a webhook typically reside under the `query` property within the incoming JSON data. So, I'd set the `value` field using an expression: `={{$json[\"query\"][\"crc_token\"]}}`. This dynamically fetches the `crc_token` from the webhook's input and feeds it into the HMAC calculation.\n\nAfter the Crypto node calculates the HMAC, we need to format the output exactly as specified: prepend \"sha256=\" and call the final output `response_token`. For transforming or adding new data to the workflow's item, the **Set** node is ideal. So, I'd place an `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, `typeVersion: 1`, and connect it from the Crypto node. This ensures the result of the HMAC operation is available to the Set node.\n\nConfiguring the Set node involves creating a new value. I'd add a new `string` type value.\n- The `name` of this new value needs to be `response_token`, as per the prompt.\n- For the `value` itself, we need to concatenate the literal string \"sha256=\" with the output from the Crypto node. The Crypto node's output, being the HMAC hash, will typically be available as the `data` property of the incoming item. So, the expression for the value would be: `=sha256={{$json[\"data\"]}}`. This builds the final string.\n\nFinally, to fulfill the requirement that \"the webhook respond only with this new token,\" I would enable the `keepOnlySet` option in the Set node. Setting `keepOnlySet` to `true` ensures that only the `response_token` field created by this node is passed downstream. Since this Set node is the last node connected to the Webhook (via the Crypto node), and the Webhook's `responseMode` is set to `\"lastNode\"`, this setup perfectly ensures that the HTTP response from the webhook contains solely the `response_token`." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger node. Connect it to a DebugHelper node named 'DebugHelper', configured to generate 100 random data items using a seed of 0.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [780, 500]}, {\"parameters\": {\"category\": \"randomData\", \"randomDataSeed\": \"0\", \"randomDataCount\": 100}, \"name\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1000, 500]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants a workflow that kicks off manually and then immediately generates some test data.\n\nFirst things first, the prompt clearly states \"starts with a manual trigger node.\" So, that's my starting point. I'll drag and drop a **Manual Trigger** node onto the canvas. This node is perfect for when you want to run a workflow on demand, perhaps for testing, or simply when a user needs to initiate it directly. Its node type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion 1`. This version is standard and serves the purpose perfectly without any complex configurations needed; it just waits for a click. I'll leave its default name, \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" as that's very clear about its purpose.\n\nNext, the prompt says to connect it to a \"DebugHelper node named 'DebugHelper', configured to generate 100 random data items using a seed of 0.\" This tells me exactly what the next step is and how to set it up.\n\nSo, I'll add a **DebugHelper** node. The node type for this is `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper`, and again, it's `typeVersion 1`. This node is incredibly useful for development and testing workflows because it can simulate different scenarios or, as in this case, generate dummy data without needing to connect to external systems. It's exactly what's needed here to create test data on the fly.\n\nNow for the configuration of this **DebugHelper** node. The prompt specifies \"named 'DebugHelper'\", so I'll make sure its name property is set to \"DebugHelper\".\n\nThen, for the actual data generation part: \"configured to generate 100 random data items using a seed of 0.\" This maps directly to the parameters of the DebugHelper node.\nI'd go into its settings and look for the \"Category\" option. The requirement for \"random data items\" tells me I need to set the `category` parameter to `randomData`. This option specifically enables the node's capability to produce synthetic data.\n\nOnce `randomData` is selected, new options appear. The prompt states \"100 random data items,\" which directly corresponds to the `randomDataCount` parameter. So, I'll set that to `100`. This will ensure the node outputs exactly one hundred separate items when it runs.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies \"using a seed of 0.\" This is important for reproducibility. If you generate random data without a seed, it will be different every time. By setting the `randomDataSeed` parameter to `0`, the same set of \"random\" data will be generated every time the workflow is executed. This is incredibly useful for consistent testing. So, I'll set `randomDataSeed` to `0`.\n\nWith both nodes on the canvas and configured, the last step is to connect them. The prompt says \"Connect it [the manual trigger] to a DebugHelper node.\" This means the output of the \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" node needs to feed into the input of the \"DebugHelper\" node. I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the **Manual Trigger** node to the `main` input of the **DebugHelper** node. The Manual Trigger node doesn't pass actual data items; instead, it sends an execution signal, triggering the DebugHelper node to run and generate its configured data. This simple `main` connection is perfect for passing that execution flow." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then uses an AWS SNS node to publish a message. Configure the SNS node with topic 'n8n-rocks', message 'This is a test message', subject 'This is a test subject', and 'aws' credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"topic\": \"n8n-rocks\", \"message\": \"This is a test message\", \"subject\": \"This is a test subject\"}, \"name\": \"AWS SNS\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.awsSns\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AWS SNS\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow from the ground up, based on the requirements.\n\nThe first thing I see in the prompt is that the workflow needs to \"start with a manual trigger\". This immediately tells me what the very first node in our workflow should be. I'll go ahead and add that.\n\nSo, I'm adding an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. Its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect for kickstarting a workflow when you want to explicitly run it by clicking a button in the n8n editor or via an API call. For this specific use case, where a user is initiating it, the manual trigger is the most straightforward and appropriate choice. There are no special parameters to configure for a basic manual trigger; it simply acts as the starting point. I'll position it at `[250, 300]` on our canvas.\n\nNext, the prompt states that *after* the manual trigger, the workflow should \"use an AWS SNS node to publish a message.\" This tells me what the subsequent node should be and how it should connect to our trigger. The flow is linear here: trigger, then SNS.\n\nSo, I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.awsSns` node. Its `typeVersion` is also `1`. This node is specifically designed for interacting with Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS), which is exactly what we need to publish a message. I'll connect the `main` output of our \"On clicking 'execute'\" (manual trigger) node to the `main` input of this \"AWS SNS\" node. This ensures that once the manual trigger is activated, it passes control (and an empty item, in this case) to the SNS node to proceed. I'll place this node at `[450, 300]`, slightly to the right of our trigger.\n\nNow, I need to configure this AWS SNS node with the specific details provided in the prompt. The prompt specifies:\n- \"topic 'n8n-rocks'\"\n- \"message 'This is a test message'\"\n- \"subject 'This is a test subject'\"\n- \"'aws' credentials\"\n\nFor the `topic` parameter, I'll set its value to \"n8n-rocks\". This tells the SNS service which topic the message should be published to.\n\nFor the `message` parameter, I'll input \"This is a test message\". This will be the actual content of the notification that SNS sends out.\n\nNext, for the `subject` parameter, I'll set it to \"This is a test subject\". This acts as a title for the notification, which can be particularly useful for email or SMS subscribers to quickly understand the message's purpose.\n\nFinally, the prompt mentions \"'aws' credentials\". This means that the node needs to be authenticated with AWS using an existing AWS credential record configured within n8n. So, under the `credentials` section for this node, I would select an AWS credential record that has been pre-configured with the necessary access keys and permissions to publish to SNS. I'll just use the generic reference `aws` for this as shown in the JSON.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the requirements. The manual trigger starts it, and then the SNS node publishes the message with all the specified details. Looks good." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object with `name: 'PostOnboardingJSON new'`, `active: false`, `triggerCount: 0`, and `settings.executionOrder: 'v1'`. Ensure all array and object fields are empty, `staticData` and `meta` are `null`, and include unique values for `id`, `versionId`, `createdAt`, and `updatedAt`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"PostOnboardingJSON new\", \"nodes\": [], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, so I'm approaching this as if I'm building a new workflow in n8n from the ground up, with a very specific blueprint provided by the user prompt and the target JSON. The prompt outlines the desired structure of the *workflow itself*, rather than defining a sequence of operations within it. In fact, it explicitly states that the core operational parts, like the nodes and their connections, should be empty.\n\nMy first thought process begins with the very act of creating a new workflow. Every workflow needs an identity and fundamental properties.\n\nThe very first piece of information I'd address is the `name`. The prompt is very specific: `'PostOnboardingJSON new'`. So, I'd immediately set this as the workflow's name. A clear, descriptive name is always essential, as it's how the workflow will be identified and managed within the n8n interface. It helps me and anyone else understand its purpose at a glance.\n\nNext, I'd look at the `active` status. The prompt states `active: false`. This is a critical setting. It means that even after I've defined this workflow, it won't automatically execute or respond to triggers. It's in a dormant state, perhaps for development, testing, or because it's only meant to be manually triggered or called by another workflow. It's a good safety measure to prevent unintended executions during the design phase.\n\nThen there's `triggerCount: 0`. This is a counter that tracks how many times the workflow has been successfully run. Since I'm creating it \"from the ground up\" and it's set to `false` for activity, it's perfectly logical that this count would be zero at this initial stage. It signifies a brand-new, untriggered workflow.\n\nMoving onto the `settings` object, the prompt specifies `executionOrder: 'v1'`. This defines how the internal flow of nodes will operate. 'v1' refers to the standard, sequential execution model, where nodes process data one after another in a defined chain. Even though there are currently no nodes, setting this default is important. If, at some point, n8n were to introduce more advanced execution models (say, 'v2' for parallel processing or different flow control), I might consider those options. But for a simple, initially empty workflow, 'v1' is the appropriate and common default.\n\nThe prompt also clearly states that `staticData` and `meta` should be `null`. `staticData` is where persistent workflow-level data might be stored, for example, a counter that persists across executions. `meta` is for additional metadata about the workflow. Setting them to `null` indicates that, at this stage, no such persistent data or auxiliary metadata is needed or intended for this workflow. It keeps the workflow definition clean and minimal.\n\nNow, a very crucial part given the prompt's explicit instruction: \"Ensure all array and object fields are empty\". This directly impacts the core structure of the workflow's operations:\n* `nodes: []`: This is key. It means I'm designing a workflow that currently contains *no* operational nodes. No triggers, no processing steps, no data manipulation. It's an empty canvas. This could be a placeholder, a template for future use, or simply a workflow definition that hasn't had its functional components added yet. Since I'm building it *to match* the provided JSON, having no nodes is the explicit requirement.\n* `connections: {}`: Logically, if there are no nodes, there can be no connections *between* nodes. This object would typically define how the output of one node flows into the input of another. Its emptiness directly correlates with the empty `nodes` array.\n* `pinData: {}`: This often relates to layout and visual settings within the n8n editor. An empty object here means no specific layout or pin configurations are stored.\n* `tags: []`: Tags are used for organizing and categorizing workflows. An empty array means no organizational tags have been assigned yet, which is common for a newly defined workflow.\n\nFinally, the prompt mentions `id`, `versionId`, `createdAt`, and `updatedAt`. These are core system-managed properties for any n8n workflow. When I create a workflow, the n8n platform automatically generates a unique `id` for it. Similarly, a `versionId` is created, which is crucial for version control and tracking changes to the workflow over time. The `createdAt` and `updatedAt` timestamps are also automatically populated by the system, marking when the workflow was first brought into existence and when it was last modified. As a designer, I don't manually set these values; I rely on the n8n environment to handle their generation and ensure their uniqueness and accuracy as part of the workflow's lifecycle management. The prompt including them simply confirms they are part of the complete, valid workflow definition.\n\nSo, my design process for this particular workflow is about meticulously defining its high-level attributes and ensuring its operational core remains explicitly empty, just as the blueprint specifies. It's a workflow shell, precisely configured." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON that is `active: false`.

The request is pretty clear: it needs to be `active: false` from the get-go, and it's going to be a chat-based interaction using an Ollama model.\n\nMy first thought is always about the trigger. How does this workflow start? The prompt explicitly says it should begin with a `Chat Trigger`. So, that's step one.\n\n1. **Chat Trigger Node**\n * I'll add a `Chat Trigger` node. Its `type` is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfectly suited because it's designed to listen for incoming chat messages, which is exactly what we need for a chat-based interaction. It's the entry point for the user's query. When a chat message comes in, this node will activate the workflow. It's also worth noting that it would automatically generate a unique webhook ID when added to a real n8n instance, allowing external chat platforms to send messages to it. For configuration, looking at the JSON, its `parameters` object is empty, meaning it's using all default settings, which is fine for a basic chat initiation.\n\nNext, after the `Chat Trigger` receives a message, what do we want to do with it? The goal is to use an LLM. The prompt specifies a `Basic LLM Chain`. This seems like the natural next step after the trigger. It's where the actual language model processing will happen.\n\n2. **Basic LLM Chain Node**\n * So, I'll connect the `Chat Trigger`'s main output to the input of a `Basic LLM Chain` node. This node has a `type` of `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chainLlm` and a `typeVersion` of `1.3`. This `Basic LLM Chain` node is ideal because it acts as an orchestrator for language model operations. It can take input, process it through a specified LLM, and provide the output. Version `1.3` indicates it's a slightly more mature version, perhaps with some refinements over initial releases. Its `parameters` are also empty in the JSON, which implies that it's waiting for a language model to be provided to it, rather than having specific prompt templates or settings pre-configured within itself at this stage. It's a clean slate, ready to be told *which* model to use.\n\nNow, how does the `Basic LLM Chain` actually *get* its intelligence? It needs a language model. The prompt specifies an `Ollama Chat Model`. This is the crucial piece for the AI brain of the operation.\n\n3. **Ollama Chat Model Node**\n * I'll add an `Ollama Chat Model` node. Its `type` is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatOllama` and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it directly integrates with the Ollama service, which allows us to run large language models locally or remotely.\n * The configuration here is important. The `parameters` for this node specify the `model` as `\"llama3.2:latest\"`. This tells the Ollama node exactly which language model to load and use from the Ollama service. It's critical for defining the AI's capabilities. There are no additional `options` configured, so it will use the default Ollama settings for that model.\n * To connect to the Ollama service, this node requires credentials. The JSON shows `credentials.ollamaApi` referencing `Local Ollama service`. This means that before this workflow can run, a credential entry named \"Local Ollama service\" must be set up in n8n, containing the necessary connection details (like the base URL for the Ollama server). This credential isn't part of the workflow itself but is a prerequisite for it to function, ensuring secure connection details are stored separately.\n * Now, for the connection: This is a bit different from a typical sequential flow. The `Ollama Chat Model` doesn't pass *data* directly to the `Basic LLM Chain`'s main input. Instead, it provides the *language model capability*. So, I need to connect the `Ollama Chat Model`'s `ai_languageModel` output to the `Basic LLM Chain`'s `ai_languageModel` input. This specific connection type signifies that the Ollama node is serving as the underlying language model for the chain, allowing the chain to perform its LLM operations.\n\nFinally, just a quick check on the overall workflow setting. The prompt clearly stated `active: false`. Looking at the provided JSON, the top-level `active` property is indeed `false`. This means that even after creating this workflow, it won't run until it's manually activated, which is a good practice for development and deployment. This setup provides a robust, chat-driven LLM interaction using Ollama." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a 'Manual Trigger' node named 'On clicking 'execute'', which then connects to a 'CircleCI' node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"vcs\": \"\", \"projectSlug\": \"\"}, \"name\": \"CircleCI\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.circleCi\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"CircleCI\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow.\n\nThe user prompt is pretty clear: we need a workflow that begins with a 'Manual Trigger' and then flows into a 'CircleCI' node. I've got the full JSON blueprint right here, so I'll follow that structure exactly.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt specifically calls for a 'Manual Trigger' node, which is absolutely the right choice here, especially since it's named 'On clicking 'execute''. This implies a user-initiated start, perhaps for testing or just for a direct, one-off execution.\n\nSo, I'd bring in the first node. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is the standard manual trigger node. Its purpose is quite straightforward: it simply provides an entry point to the workflow, allowing it to be started manually from the n8n interface. I don't see any special parameters configured for it in the JSON, which is typical for a basic manual trigger; it just needs to exist to kick things off. I'll name it \"On clicking 'execute'\" as specified in the JSON. This custom name is great because it makes the workflow's purpose immediately clear when looking at the canvas.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt states it \"then connects to a 'CircleCI' node.\" This tells me exactly what the second step should be. After the manual trigger fires, we need to perform some action related to CircleCI.\n\nSo, the next node to add would be the CircleCI integration. Based on the JSON, this node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.circleCi`, also with `typeVersion: 1`. This dedicated CircleCI node is precisely what we need to interact with the CircleCI platform, whether it's to trigger a build, check a job status, or perform other CI\/CD operations. It's the direct tool for integrating with that service.\n\nI'll place this 'CircleCI' node right after the 'Manual Trigger'. As for its configuration, the JSON shows some key parameters. There's `vcs`, which would typically be set to the version control system used by the project, like \"github\" or \"bitbucket\". Then there's `projectSlug`, which is the unique identifier for the specific project within CircleCI, usually something like \"org-name\/repo-name\". Both of these fields would need actual values provided during setup for the node to function correctly, telling it which CircleCI project to interact with.\n\nCrucially, the 'CircleCI' node also has a `credentials` field, specifically `circleCiApi`. This is where the authentication details for CircleCI would be stored. It would connect to an n8n credential entry that contains an API token or key, allowing n8n to securely authenticate with CircleCI on the user's behalf. It's important that this is handled securely and not exposed in the workflow itself.\n\nFinally, we need to make the connection between these two nodes. The JSON's `connections` object explicitly defines this: `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"CircleCI\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This means the primary output of our \"On clicking 'execute'\" node flows directly into the primary input of the \"CircleCI\" node. It's a straightforward, linear execution path: when the manual trigger is activated, it simply passes control to the CircleCI node, causing it to execute whatever action it's configured for. There's no complex data transformation or conditional logic specified in this connection, just a simple \"fire and forget\" pass-through to the next step.\n\nAnd that's it.

The prompt is pretty clear about the starting point and what needs to happen.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a trigger, right? Something that kicks it off. Looking at the request, it specifies a \"When chat message received\" trigger. That's pretty specific.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a **When chat message received** node. Its `type` is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is 1.1. This particular node type is perfect because it's designed to listen for incoming chat messages, which aligns exactly with the requirement for the workflow to start when a chat message comes in. I'd drag that onto the canvas. For its configuration, I see in the JSON that its `parameters` simply have an empty `options` object, meaning there aren't any specific customizations like webhook URL paths or response types set up beyond its defaults. It's just ready to receive a general chat message, which is fine for a basic trigger.\n\nOkay, so we've got our trigger. What's next? The prompt says it should connect to a \"Node 1\" Set node that outputs a specific JSON structure.\n\nSo, from the output of our \"When chat message received\" trigger, I'll draw a connection. The standard flow for data in n8n is usually from the \"main\" output of one node to the \"main\" input of the next.\n\nNow, for \"Node 1,\" it needs to be a Set node. Set nodes are incredibly useful for defining or manipulating data within the workflow. They're like little data factories. The JSON shows it's of `type` `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion` 3.4. This type of node allows us to explicitly define the data structure and values that will be passed on to the next node.\n\nI'd add this **Node 1** (a Set node) to the canvas and connect it from the trigger. How do I configure it to output `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`? Looking at the JSON, the `parameters` specify `mode: \"raw\"` and `jsonOutput` containing exactly that JSON string. This is the most direct way to ensure the node outputs that precise structure. So, I'd switch the Set node's mode to \"Raw JSON\" and paste that JSON snippet right into the field. This way, any data coming into this node from the chat trigger will be replaced or enriched with this new, defined data structure, and this structure will be what \"Node 1\" provides to the next step.\n\nAlright, that's \"Node 1\" sorted. What's the final piece? The request states that \"Node 1\" then connects to a \"Node 2\" Set node, which outputs a different JSON structure: `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`.\n\nSo, similar to the previous step, I'll draw a connection from the \"main\" output of \"Node 1\" to the \"main\" input of this new \"Node 2.\"\n\nThis \"Node 2\" is also a Set node, just like \"Node 1.\" Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion` 3.4. The Set node is again the perfect choice here because we need to define yet another specific set of output data. I'd add it to the canvas.\n\nTo configure **Node 2**, I'd follow the same approach as \"Node 1.\" The JSON confirms its `parameters` are also set to `mode: \"raw\"` with `jsonOutput` containing `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`. So, I'd set its mode to \"Raw JSON\" and input that exact JSON payload. This means that whatever data \"Node 1\" produced will now be received by \"Node 2,\" and then \"Node 2\" will override or augment it with its own defined raw JSON output. The data flowing out of \"Node 2\" will therefore be `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the requirements. We have a trigger, and two sequential Set nodes, each providing its own specific JSON output, forming a clear data pipeline." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named \"ChargeBee:Customer:create:Invoice:list pdfUrl\" that starts by concurrently creating a Chargebee customer (with dynamic ID\/name) and listing a single Chargebee invoice, then retrieves the PDF URL for that listed invoice.", "json": "{\"name\": \"ChargeBee:Customer:create:Invoice:list pdfUrl\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Start\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.start\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"customer\", \"properties\": {\"id\": \"=Customer{{Date.now()}}\", \"first_name\": \"=FirstName{{Date.now()}}\"}}, \"name\": \"Chargebee\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.chargebee\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [510, 270]}, {\"parameters\": {\"maxResults\": 1}, \"name\": \"Chargebee1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.chargebee\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [510, 420]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"pdfUrl\", \"invoiceId\": \"={{$node[\\\"Chargebee1\\\"].json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\"}, \"name\": \"Chargebee2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.chargebee\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [640, 420]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"subscription\", \"operation\": \"cancel\"}, \"name\": \"Chargebee3\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.chargebee\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [520, 120]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"subscription\"}, \"name\": \"Chargebee4\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.chargebee\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [670, 120]}], \"connections\": {\"Start\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Chargebee\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}, {\"node\": \"Chargebee1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Chargebee1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Chargebee2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start designing this n8n workflow based on the requirements.\n\nFirst off, every workflow needs a starting point, so I'll begin by adding a **Start node**. This is the fundamental trigger that kicks off the execution. It's of `type: n8n-nodes-base.start` and `typeVersion: 1`. It simply provides the initial input for the workflow to begin.\n\nThe prompt states that the workflow should \"start by concurrently creating a Chargebee customer... and listing a single Chargebee invoice.\" This \"concurrently\" part means that from our Start node, we'll need two separate paths executing in parallel.\n\nSo, for the first path, let's tackle the \"creating a Chargebee customer\" part. I'll need a **Chargebee node** for this, as it's the dedicated integration for Chargebee. This will be `type: n8n-nodes-base.chargebee` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'll connect its input to the Start node's main output. In its configuration, the `resource` parameter needs to be set to `customer` since we're creating a customer. Then, for the `properties`, the prompt specifies a \"dynamic ID\/name\". So, I'd set the `id` and `first_name` fields to use expressions that generate unique values, something like `={{Date.now()}}` combined with a prefix, ensuring each run creates a distinct customer. This node will also require credentials to connect to the Chargebee API, which would be configured generically, for instance, by referencing an existing Chargebee API credential.\n\nNow, for the second concurrent path: \"listing a single Chargebee invoice.\" Again, I'll use another **Chargebee node**. Let's call this `Chargebee1` to distinguish it. It's also of `type: n8n-nodes-base.chargebee` and `typeVersion: 1`. Its input will also connect directly from the Start node's main output, running in parallel with the customer creation node. For this node's parameters, the `resource` will be set to `invoice`. To ensure we get only a *single* invoice as requested, I'd configure a `maxResults` parameter and set its value to `1`. This will limit the output to just one invoice record. Like the other Chargebee node, this one will also need Chargebee API credentials to operate.\n\nAfter we've listed that single invoice, the next step is to \"retrieve the PDF URL for that listed invoice.\" This means the output from our `Chargebee1` node (the one listing the invoice) needs to feed into a new node that can fetch the PDF URL. So, I'll add a third **Chargebee node**, let's call it `Chargebee2`. It's also `type: n8n-nodes-base.chargebee` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node's input will come from the `Chargebee1` node's main output. For its configuration, the `operation` parameter should be set to `pdfUrl`. Crucially, to specify *which* invoice's PDF URL we want, the `invoiceId` parameter needs to dynamically reference the `id` of the invoice obtained from the previous node. So, I'd use an expression like `={{$node[\"Chargebee1\"].json[\"id\"]}}` to pull the ID directly from the data output by `Chargebee1`. This node, too, will require the same Chargebee API credentials as the others.\n\nLooking at the provided structure, I also see a couple of other Chargebee nodes (`Chargebee3`, `Chargebee4`) that are marked as `disabled: true`. While they aren't active in this specific workflow run, if they were, `Chargebee3` seems configured to cancel a subscription, and `Chargebee4` just to query subscriptions. They are positioned off to the side and unconnected to our main flow, reinforcing that they are currently inert and not part of the active path we're building for the prompt's request. My focus remains on the connected, active nodes that fulfill the specified requirements.\n\nAnd that completes the main logic for the workflow as described. We start, branch concurrently to create a customer and list an invoice, and then proceed to get the PDF URL of that listed invoice." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow to fetch random cocktail instructions from TheCocktailDB API and translate them to Italian using LingvaNex, starting with a manual trigger.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Translate cocktail instructions using LingvaNex\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"={{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strInstructions\\\"]}}\", \"options\": {}, \"translateTo\": \"it_IT\"}, \"name\": \"LingvaNex\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.lingvaNex\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"LingvaNex\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning out this n8n workflow from scratch, based on the user's request. The goal is clear: get random cocktail instructions from TheCocktailDB, translate them to Italian using LingvaNex, and kick it all off manually.\n\nFirst things first, how do we even start this workflow? The user explicitly states \"starting with a manual trigger.\" That makes the choice obvious. I'll need a trigger node that can be executed on demand.\n\nSo, I'd bring in the **On clicking 'execute'** node. This is a `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. It's perfect because it simply provides a starting point when you click the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n UI. It doesn't need any complex configuration; its sole purpose is to initiate the flow.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the very next step, according to the prompt, is to \"fetch random cocktail instructions from TheCocktailDB API.\" To interact with an external API like TheCocktailDB, the standard node to use is an HTTP request.\n\nSo, I'd add an **HTTP Request** node right after the manual trigger. This is a `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` node, typically `typeVersion: 1`. I'll connect the `main` output of the 'On clicking 'execute'' node to the `main` input of this 'HTTP Request' node. This ensures that when the workflow starts, it immediately tries to fetch data.\n\nNow, how do I configure this HTTP Request node? I need the correct URL for TheCocktailDB's random cocktail endpoint. From their API documentation, or just general knowledge, the URL for fetching a random drink is `https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php`. I'll set that as the URL parameter for the node. The request method will be a simple GET, which is usually the default. I don't need any special headers or body for this particular API call. The node will then make the request and output the JSON response containing the cocktail details.\n\nWith the cocktail instructions now fetched, the final piece of the puzzle is to \"translate them to Italian using LingvaNex.\" This clearly calls for a translation node, specifically one that integrates with LingvaNex.\n\nSo, I'd add a **LingvaNex** node. This is a `n8n-nodes-base.lingvaNex` node, also `typeVersion: 1`. This node will connect directly to the output of the 'HTTP Request' node. The `main` output of 'HTTP Request' will flow into the `main` input of 'LingvaNex'.\n\nNow for the LingvaNex node's configuration. It needs two main things: the text to translate and the target language. The text to translate will come from the data we just got from TheCocktailDB. The data from the HTTP Request node will be available in its JSON output. I know from past experience with TheCocktailDB that the instructions are usually nested under `drinks` (which is an array, even if it usually contains only one item for random requests) and then a property called `strInstructions`. So, I'd use an expression like `={{$node[\"HTTP Request\"].json[\"drinks\"][0][\"strInstructions\"]}}` in the 'Text' field of the LingvaNex node. This tells n8n to take the `strInstructions` value from the first item in the `drinks` array that was returned by the 'HTTP Request' node.\n\nAs for the target language, the prompt specifies \"to Italian.\" So, in the 'Translate To' field of the LingvaNex node, I would select or input the appropriate locale code for Italian, which is `it_IT`. Finally, this node would require a LingvaNex API credential to function, which would be linked in the 'Credentials' section of the node's parameters, allowing it to authenticate with the LingvaNex service." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers manually and sends an SMS using the Mocean node, leaving the 'to', 'from', and 'message' parameters empty for configuration.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [590, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"to\": \"\", \"from\": \"\", \"message\": \"\"}, \"name\": \"Mocean\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.mocean\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [790, 260]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Mocean\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed from scratch. The user wants a manual trigger, and then an SMS sent using Mocean, but with the SMS parameters left empty. This sounds like a basic template or a starting point for someone to fill in the details.\n\nFirst things first, how is this workflow going to start? The prompt explicitly states it needs to \"trigger manually\". Looking at the n8n nodes available, the most direct and intuitive way to achieve this is by using a `Manual Trigger` node. So, that's what I'd put down as the very first node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is 1. This node doesn't really have any configurable parameters beyond its name; its whole purpose is to start the workflow when the 'Execute Workflow' button is clicked in the editor or via an API call specifically for manual execution. It's chosen because it perfectly matches the \"triggers manually\" requirement, ensuring the workflow only runs on demand, not on a schedule or external event.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's the next step? The core action here is \"sends an SMS using the Mocean node\". This immediately tells me I need to find the dedicated Mocean integration node. So, the next node in the sequence will be the `Mocean` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.mocean`, and it's also `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed to interact with the Mocean API for sending SMS messages, which makes it the perfect fit for this part of the requirement. I wouldn't consider a generic HTTP Request node here, as the Mocean node simplifies the process by handling authentication and API endpoint details internally.\n\nOnce the `Mocean` node is in place, I need to think about its configuration and how it connects to the `Manual Trigger`. The connection is straightforward: the `Manual Trigger` will connect its `main` output to the `Mocean` node's `main` input. This means that when the manual trigger is activated, it will simply pass control to the `Mocean` node, telling it to execute. The `Manual Trigger` doesn't pass any significant data in this scenario that the `Mocean` node would directly consume for its operation; it's purely an execution flow control.\n\nNow, for the `Mocean` node's parameters. The prompt specifically asks to \"leav[e] the 'to', 'from', and 'message' parameters empty for configuration.\" This is crucial.\n* For the 'to' field, which specifies the recipient's phone number, I will leave it as an empty string (`\"\"`). This allows the user later to input the target phone number for the SMS.\n* Similarly, for the 'from' field, which would be the sender ID or number, it will also be an empty string (`\"\"`). The user will need to configure this based on their Mocean account.\n* And finally, the 'message' parameter, which holds the actual content of the SMS, will also be an empty string (`\"\"`). Again, this makes the workflow a template where the user defines the message content at runtime or before execution.\n\nThis approach of leaving parameters empty is excellent for creating a reusable template. It forces the user to actively define these critical pieces of information before the workflow can send a meaningful SMS, preventing accidental sends or incomplete messages. If I were building this for a production environment where these values are known, I would populate them directly or pull them from previous nodes. But for this specific request, empty is correct.\n\nLastly, the `Mocean` node will require credentials. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"moceanApi\": \"mocean\"}`. This indicates that a Mocean API credential set, previously configured in n8n and named 'mocean' (or whatever specific name was given), would be linked here. This is where the actual API Key and Secret for the Mocean service would be stored securely within n8n. I wouldn't put any actual sensitive information directly into the workflow JSON itself; n8n handles credential management separately, which is a good security practice. So, the node simply references a pre-existing credential configuration.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The `Manual Trigger` starts the process, passes execution directly to the `Mocean` node, which then attempts to send an SMS using the linked credentials, but with the core SMS details (`to`, `from`, `message`) intentionally left blank for later user configuration. It's a very straightforward, two-node workflow perfectly suited to the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, which then connects to a Gmail node configured to 'get' data.

The goal is to create a workflow that starts manually, then fetches data from Gmail, and then fetches data from Gmail *again*.\n\nFirst things first, the user wants a workflow that kicks off with a manual trigger. This immediately tells me I need a specific type of starting node. Looking at n8n's available nodes, the most straightforward choice for a user-initiated start is the **Manual Trigger** node. It's perfect for when someone wants to click a button and get the workflow going.\n\nSo, I'll add the **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the JSON shows its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node doesn't usually require any specific configuration parameters beyond its default settings for this kind of simple trigger, which the JSON confirms as an empty `parameters` object `{}`. I'd position it somewhere logically on the canvas, perhaps to the left, as it's the starting point. The JSON places it at `[460, 460]`. It's named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", which is a common default for this node type in n8n.\n\nNext, the prompt says this manual trigger should connect to a Gmail node configured to 'get' data. This is clear: I need a node that can interact with Gmail, and specifically, one that can retrieve information. The **Gmail** node is exactly what I'm looking for. It's designed for these kinds of integrations.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Gmail** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.gmail`, and the JSON specifies `typeVersion: 2.1`. Now, for the configuration. The user explicitly stated \"configured to 'get' data.\" This translates directly to the `operation` parameter of the Gmail node. I'd set `operation` to `\"get\"`. This means the node will attempt to retrieve emails or email-related data from the configured Gmail account. Of course, to make this work in a real scenario, this node would need credentials configured, but that's handled separately within n8n and not part of the node's explicit parameters in the JSON here. The JSON confirms `{\"operation\": \"get\"}` for this node. I'll connect this first Gmail node directly from the \"Manual Trigger\" node. The JSON shows this connection: `{\"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This looks good; data (or rather, the execution flow) will pass from the trigger to this Gmail node. Its name is \"Gmail\" and it's positioned at `[680, 460]`.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that \"This first Gmail node should then connect to a second Gmail node, also set to 'get' data.\" This is straightforward. I need *another* **Gmail** node. It will serve the same purpose as the first one in terms of operation \u2013 retrieving data \u2013 but it could potentially be configured to get *different* data, perhaps from a different label, or with different filters, or just processing the data from the first Gmail node further, though the prompt doesn't specify that level of detail. For now, it just needs to 'get' data.\n\nSo, I'll add a second **Gmail** node. Again, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.gmail`, and its `typeVersion` is `2.1`, matching the first one. Just like the first, its `operation` parameter must be set to `\"get\"`. The JSON confirms `{\"operation\": \"get\"}` for this node as well. This node would also require credentials, possibly the same as the first, or different ones if the workflow was designed to interact with multiple Gmail accounts. I'll connect this second Gmail node directly from the first Gmail node. The JSON confirms this connection: `\"Gmail\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This shows the flow moving sequentially. The name in the JSON for this node is empty `\"\"`, but n8n often defaults to \"Gmail1\" or similar when there's another node of the same type already present. Its position is `[900, 460]`, further to the right, indicating the progression of the workflow.\n\nAnd that's it.

The request is to create an n8n workflow that's manually triggered, generates an iCalendar event, and then sends an email with that event attached.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states \"when manually triggered.\" So, my immediate thought goes to the most straightforward way to achieve this: a Manual Trigger node.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding the **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it allows someone to explicitly click an 'execute' button in the n8n interface to start the workflow. There are no specific parameters to configure for this node; it simply acts as a \"start\" signal when activated. It's the simplest and most direct way to fulfill the \"manually triggered\" requirement.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next logical step, according to the request, is to \"generates an iCalendar event.\" This points me directly to the iCalendar node. n8n has a dedicated node for this purpose, which is fantastic.\n\nSo, the next node I'd add is the **iCalendar** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.iCal`, and it's `typeVersion: 1`. I'd connect this node directly to the output of the Manual Trigger node, so that whenever the trigger fires, the iCalendar generation begins.\n\nNow, configuring the iCalendar node. The prompt specifies an \"n8n Community Meetup.\" This tells me the title. I'd set the `title` parameter to \"n8n Community Meetup.\" For the dates and times, the JSON provides specific values: `2021-06-11T15:30:00.000Z` for the `start` and `2021-06-11T16:15:00.000Z` for the `end`. These would be hardcoded in this scenario, but in a real-world dynamic workflow, they might come from a previous node, like a date picker or a database query. The `additionalFields` object is empty, indicating no extra properties like a description or location are being added, which is fine for this specific request. The purpose of this node is solely to take these details and output an iCalendar file \u2013 represented as binary data \u2013 that can then be used by subsequent nodes.\n\nAfter generating the iCalendar event, the final part of the request is to \"sends an email invitation with the iCalendar file attached.\" This immediately brings the Email Send node to mind. It's the standard way to send emails in n8n.\n\nSo, I'd add the **Send Email** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.emailSend`, and it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node needs to receive the iCalendar file generated by the previous node, so I'd connect the output of the iCalendar node to the input of the Send Email node. This connection is crucial because the iCalendar node's primary output *is* the iCalendar file data, which needs to be passed along.\n\nNow, let's configure the Send Email node.\nFirst, the `subject`. The prompt indicates \"n8n Community Meetup,\" and the JSON adds a nice touch with an emoji, so the `subject` would be set to \"n8n Community Meetup \ud83d\ude80\".\nNext, the `text` of the email. The JSON provides a pre-written message: \"Hey Harshil,\\n\\nWe are excited to invite you to the n8n community meetup!\\n\\nWith this email you will find the invite attached.\\n\\nLooking forward to seeing you at the meetup!\\n\\nCheers,\\nHarshil\". This message would be directly inserted into the `text` parameter.\nThe `options` are empty, meaning no special formatting or advanced settings are needed, which simplifies things.\nCrucially, for the attachment part. The iCalendar node outputs the iCalendar data, and the Email Send node needs to know to attach that. The `attachments` parameter is set to `\"data\"`. This is a powerful feature in n8n: when a node receives binary data (like the iCalendar file from the previous node), specifying `\"data\"` here tells the Email Send node to look for and attach any binary data it received. It cleverly handles the file name and content type based on the incoming data.\nFinally, for credentials. To send an email, I need to specify how to send it. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"smtp\": \"Outlook Burner Credentials\"}`. This means a pre-configured SMTP credential set, likely named \"Outlook Burner Credentials\", would be selected here. This credential set holds the sensitive information required to connect to an email server, such as host, port, username, and password, but these specific values are never exposed in the workflow definition itself, just referenced by name. This keeps the workflow shareable without compromising security.\n\nAnd that's it. The trigger starts, the iCalendar is created with the specified details, and then that iCalendar file is automatically attached to an email with a pre-defined subject and body, and sent using the configured email credentials. Simple, clean, and fulfills all requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON named 'Test workflow 1'.

The request is pretty clear: a workflow named 'Test workflow 1', starting with a manual trigger, leading to a code node that manipulates data, and it needs to be inactive with specific tags.\n\nFirst things first, I need to define the overall workflow. The prompt specifies the name \"Test workflow 1\", so that's what I'll set for the top-level `name` property. Looking at the request, it also mentions the workflow should be \"inactive\". This is a crucial setting for the workflow's behavior; it means it won't automatically run on a schedule or react to external events until someone explicitly activates it. So, I'll set the `active` property of the workflow to `false`. And then, there are these tags: 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'. Tags are great for organization, helping to categorize and find workflows later, especially as the number of workflows grows. I'll make sure to include these in the `tags` array for the workflow.\n\nNow, let's think about the nodes themselves. Every workflow needs a starting point. The prompt specifies a `manualTrigger` node. This is a very common and straightforward way to kick off a workflow when you want to run it on demand, simply by clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n interface. It's perfect here because there's no mention of external events or schedules. So, I'll add a node of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"`. The `typeVersion` for this node is `1`, which is the current standard and doesn't change its basic functionality of providing a manual execution button. Its `name` defaults to \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is descriptive enough for its purpose. It doesn't require any specific parameters for its default operation, so the `parameters` object will remain empty.\n\nOnce the workflow is manually triggered, the data, or rather, the execution flow, needs to go somewhere. The prompt says it should be connected to a `code` node. A `code` node is incredibly versatile in n8n; it allows you to write custom JavaScript to perform just about any data manipulation, logic, or external API calls that aren't easily covered by other pre-built nodes. In this case, the requirement is to add `myNewField: 1` to all input items. This is exactly what a `code` node excels at.\n\nSo, I'll add a `code` node, with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.code\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This version of the code node gives me access to the `$input` and `$output` variables, which are essential for interacting with the data flowing through the workflow. The `name` for this node will be \"Code\", which is its default and perfectly fine.\n\nThe core logic for this `code` node is to iterate over every item it receives and add a new field. The prompt explicitly states \"adds `myNewField: 1` to all input items.\" Inside the `parameters` of the `code` node, I'll put the JavaScript logic into the `jsCode` property. The standard way to access all input items in an n8n code node is `for (const item of $input.all())`. Inside this loop, I can modify each `item.json` object. To add the field, I'll write `item.json.myNewField = 1;`. Finally, for the node to pass the modified items along, I need to explicitly `return $input.all();`. This ensures all items, including the ones with the new field, are passed to the next stage of the workflow (though in this case, there isn't one specified, so it would just be the final output).\n\nNow, for the connections. The `manualTrigger` needs to feed into the `code` node. In n8n's `connections` object, this means linking the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the `main` input of the \"Code\" node. This is achieved by specifying: `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This sets up the sequential flow, where the manual trigger fires, and then the code node executes, processing whatever (in this case, empty) data the trigger provides. Since the `code` node is the last one, its output will just be an empty array if nothing follows it, so its `connections` for `main` will be `[[]]`.\n\nThat pretty much covers all the requirements for this workflow. It starts manually, processes data by adding a new field using custom code, and adheres to the specified inactive status and tags." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow where a POST webhook triggers a Netlify 'create' operation.

The user's goal is pretty clear: a POST webhook needs to kick off a Netlify 'create' action, and crucially, the title for that Netlify item has to come from the incoming webhook data.\n\nRight, so the very first thing we need to consider is the trigger. The prompt explicitly states it's a \"POST webhook.\" This immediately tells me that our workflow has to start with a node that can receive an incoming HTTP request.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding a **Webhook** node. This is perfect for listening for incoming HTTP calls. Looking at the provided JSON, it confirms this: `{\"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"position\": [450, 300], ...}`. The `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is designed precisely for this kind of event-driven start.\n\nNow, how would I configure this Webhook node? The prompt says \"POST webhook,\" so I'd open its settings and make sure the HTTP method is set to `POST`. The JSON shows `parameters\": {\"path\": \"0d36a8db-0177-4501-9f7a-e46b6829d07a\", \"options\": {}, \"httpMethod\": \"POST\"}`. The `path` parameter here would be automatically generated by n8n, giving us a unique endpoint URL for this specific webhook. No special `options` are needed for a basic POST trigger, so leaving that empty is just fine. This Webhook node will now sit there, listening, waiting for a POST request to arrive at its designated URL.\n\nOnce the Webhook receives a request, the data from that request will be passed along. What's next? The prompt states the webhook \"triggers a Netlify 'create' operation.\" This tells us our next step must involve interacting with Netlify.\n\nSo, I'd connect the output of our **Webhook** node to a new **Netlify** node. The JSON confirms this connection: `\"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Netlify\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This is a standard `main` connection, meaning the data received by the Webhook will flow directly into the Netlify node.\n\nNow, let's configure this **Netlify** node. Looking at the JSON: `{\"name\": \"Netlify\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.netlify\", \"position\": [650, 300], \"parameters\": {\"siteId\": \"5e15e032-9345-41b8-a98f-509e545f061c\", \"operation\": \"create\", \"additionalFields\": {\"title\": \"={{$json[\\\"body\\\"][\\\"data\\\"][\\\"title\\\"]}}\"}}, \"credentials\": {\"netlifyApi\": \"Netlify account\"}, \"typeVersion\": 1}`.\nThe `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.netlify`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is specifically designed to interact with the Netlify API, which is exactly what we need to perform operations like creating items.\n\nInside the Netlify node's parameters, the `operation` is clearly set to `\"create\"`, which perfectly matches the user's requirement. We also need to specify which Netlify site we're operating on. The `siteId` parameter here would be configured with the unique identifier for the specific Netlify site where we want to create the item. This ensures the operation targets the correct place.\n\nThe most critical part of this Netlify node's configuration, given the user's prompt, is setting the item's title dynamically. The prompt says \"The Netlify item's title should be dynamically set from the `title` field within the webhook's incoming `body.data`.\" The JSON addresses this with `additionalFields\": {\"title\": \"={{$json[\\\"body\\\"][\\\"data\\\"][\\\"title\\\"]}}`}.\nThis is an expression. It means \"take the incoming data (`$json`), go into its `body` property, then into `data`, and finally extract the value from the `title` field.\" This is exactly how we pull dynamic information from the payload received by the Webhook node. So, whatever title is sent in the webhook's `body.data.title` will be used as the title for the new Netlify item.\n\nFinally, for the Netlify node to actually connect to Netlify, it needs authentication. The `credentials` section shows `\"netlifyApi\": \"Netlify account\"`. This means that a Netlify API credential, which would have been previously set up in n8n with an API key or similar authentication method, is selected here to authorize the workflow's actions on Netlify's behalf. Without this, the node wouldn't be able to make any API calls.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow starts with a POST request, extracts the title from the request body, and then uses that title to create a new item on a specified Netlify site." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow titled 'NDV search bugs (introduced by schema view?)' that starts with a manual trigger.

The prompt is pretty clear about what we need to build, starting with the workflow's title and then each step.\n\nFirst things first, I'd set the workflow name. It's specified right there: \"NDV search bugs (introduced by schema view?)\". Naming it clearly from the start helps with organization, especially when you have many workflows.\n\nNow, for the actual logic. The prompt states the workflow \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This is the foundation; how do we get this whole process kicked off? The most straightforward way to manually initiate a workflow in n8n is to use the `Manual Trigger` node. So, I'd bring in a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. Looking at the JSON, it's typeVersion 1, which is the standard. Its parameters are empty, which is expected \u2013 it just sits there waiting for a click. This is perfect for testing or for a workflow that you only want to run on demand.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"Connect the trigger to a 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node configured to 'getAllPeople'\". This tells me exactly what the next step should be and how it should behave. I need a node that interacts with a customer datastore. The JSON indicates this is a `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node, which corresponds to the `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` type. This sounds like a specialized node, likely for a training environment, that simulates access to customer data. It's typeVersion 1.\n\nOnce I have that node, I need to configure it as instructed: \"getAllPeople\". So, I'd look at its parameters. The JSON shows `{\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}`. This is crucial; it tells the node to perform an operation that retrieves all available customer records from that datastore. This ensures we're pulling down all the information we might need for our bug search.\n\nNow, for the connections. The `Manual Trigger` needs to initiate the `Customer Datastore` node. So, I'd draw a connection from the `Manual Trigger`'s 'main' output to the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)`'s 'main' input. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the very next action is to go and fetch all the people from the datastore. The data flow here is simply a signal to proceed, as the `Manual Trigger` itself doesn't output specific data items in this configuration.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"then pipe its output to an 'Edit Fields' node set to include all other fields.\" This implies a data manipulation step. For editing fields or ensuring data structure, the `Set` node is typically the go-to. It's incredibly flexible for transforming data. The JSON confirms this is a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, named \"Edit Fields\", and it's typeVersion 3.4.\n\nThe specific configuration required is \"set to include all other fields.\" When I'm configuring the `Set` node, I'd look for an option that controls whether fields not explicitly mentioned in the assignments are passed through. The JSON shows `{\"includeOtherFields\": true}`. This is exactly what we need. By setting `includeOtherFields` to `true`, even though there are no specific field assignments defined (the `assignments` array is empty), any data fields that come into this `Set` node will be passed through to its output without being dropped. This is a safe way to ensure all original data is preserved, while still giving us the option to add or modify fields later if needed. The empty `options` object means no additional processing options are enabled.\n\nFor the connection, the output from the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node, which will be the actual customer records, needs to go into this `Edit Fields` (Set) node. So, I'd connect the 'main' output of the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node to the 'main' input of the `Edit Fields` node. This way, all the customer records retrieved are immediately processed by the `Set` node, ensuring all their fields are included in the subsequent output for whatever debugging or analysis needs to happen downstream." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow starting with a manual trigger.

The user prompt is clear: a manual trigger, then the Customer Datastore node to get all people, and finally a Set node named 'Edit Fields'.\n\nFirst, we need a way to kick off the workflow. The prompt explicitly asks for a manual trigger, which is perfect for testing or when you want to run the workflow on demand. So, my initial thought is to grab the **Manual Trigger** node.\n\nI'll place this as our starting point. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is really straightforward; it doesn't require any specific configuration in its `parameters` because its sole purpose is to start the workflow when manually activated. It just sends a signal to the next node that the workflow should proceed.\n\nNext, the prompt states that we need to connect to the 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node to perform the 'getAllPeople' operation. So, after our manual trigger, the logical next step is to add that specific data source node.\n\nI'll add the **Customer Datastore (n8n training)** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is designed to interact with a sample customer database, which is exactly what we need for this training scenario. The crucial part here is configuring its operation. The prompt specifically asks for the 'getAllPeople' operation. So, in its `parameters`, I'll set `operation` to `getAllPeople`. This tells the node to fetch all available customer records from the datastore.\n\nNow, we need to connect these two nodes. The manual trigger simply initiates the workflow, so its `main` output should connect directly to the `main` input of the Customer Datastore node. This means that once the workflow is triggered, the Customer Datastore node will immediately execute its configured `getAllPeople` operation. The data that comes out of the Customer Datastore node will be a list of customer records, as indicated by the `pinData` which shows example customer objects like Jay Gatsby and Jos\\u00e9 Arcadio Buend\\u00eda.\n\nFinally, the prompt asks for a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields' following the Customer Datastore operation. A **Set** node is incredibly versatile for manipulating data. It allows you to add, remove, or modify fields in the items that pass through it.\n\nSo, I'll add the **Set** node, naming it 'Edit Fields' as requested. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is `3.4`. Looking at its configuration in the JSON, its `parameters` show `assignments` as an empty array `[]` and `includeOtherFields` set to `true`. This configuration is quite interesting. With `assignments` being empty, it means we're not explicitly adding or changing any specific fields *at this moment*. However, because `includeOtherFields` is `true`, all the fields from the incoming data \u2013 which will be our customer records from the Customer Datastore \u2013 will simply pass through the Set node without being altered. This is a common pattern if you want to set up a placeholder for future data transformations or simply to inspect the data at this point in the workflow. It's ready to be expanded later if we decide we need to modify names, emails, or add new calculated fields.\n\nFor the connection, the `main` output of the Customer Datastore node, which is now carrying all the customer data, needs to connect to the `main` input of our 'Edit Fields' Set node. This ensures that the retrieved customer data flows directly into the Set node for any (potential or future) processing.

The prompt is pretty clear: we need a single Webhook node, configured to act as an entry point with a specific path and a unique ID, and it needs to have some example execution data. This sounds like a straightforward setup for receiving external events.\n\nFirst things first, an n8n workflow always starts with how it gets triggered or how it receives data. Given the requirement for a \"Webhook\" node, that's the obvious choice for our starting and only node here. It's perfect for when we want to expose an HTTP endpoint that external systems can call to send data into our workflow.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Webhook node**. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, which confirms it's the standard, built-in webhook node provided by n8n. The `typeVersion` is `2`. This is important because node versions can sometimes indicate different features or behaviors, but for a basic webhook, version 2 is pretty standard and robust.\n\nNow, let's configure this Webhook node.\n* It has an `id`: `8fcc7e5f-2cef-4938-9564-eea504c0aa0`. This is n8n's internal unique identifier for the node, essential for linking and managing it within the workflow structure.\n* The `name` is simply \"Webhook\". I'll keep it as default since there's only one node, no need for more specific naming.\n* Its `position` is `[360, 220]`. This just dictates where it appears on the workflow canvas, helping with visual organization.\n\nThe core configuration for this Webhook node is in its `parameters`:\n* We need to define the `path`. The JSON specifies `FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`. This is crucial. It means the webhook will respond to requests made to `[your-n8n-url]\/webhook\/FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ` (or `webhook-test` for test executions, as we'll see later). This custom path makes the URL predictable and easy to integrate with external services.\n* There's an `options` object, which is currently empty. This is where you might configure things like HTTP methods allowed, authentication, or response behavior, but for this basic setup, the defaults are fine.\n* Finally, there's a `webhookId`: `9c778f2a-e882-46ed-a0e4-c8e2f76ccd65`. This is another unique identifier, usually generated by n8n itself, that helps manage the webhook internally, especially for persistent webhooks.\n\nSince this is the only node, there are no `connections` to configure, which makes the workflow very simple. It's solely an entry point.\n\nThe next part of the requirement is to include `pinData`. This is really useful for designing and debugging. `pinData` essentially captures the data that would flow *out* of a node during a real or test execution. For a Webhook node, this means the incoming request data. It's like having a saved example of what the node \"saw\" during a specific run.\n\nLooking at the `pinData` for our \"Webhook\" node:\n* It's an array, meaning it can store data from multiple executions, but here we just have one example.\n* The first object in the array represents a single execution's data.\n * `headers`: This object contains the HTTP headers that were sent with the incoming request. I see typical headers like `connection` (indicating a persistent connection), `user-agent` (showing the client that made the request, in this case, likely a browser or a tool masquerading as one), `accept` (what content types the client prefers), `host` (the server address the request was sent to, `localhost:5678` in this case), and `accept-encoding` (for compression). There's also a `cookie` header, which would contain specific session or tracking information, but we don't need to dive into its specific value. This set of headers looks like a typical browser-initiated request.\n * `params`: This object is empty. This would hold any path parameters if our webhook URL path was something like `\/users\/{userId}` and `userId` was extracted.\n * `query`: This object is also empty. If the URL had query parameters like `?name=John&age=30`, they would appear here.\n * `body`: This object is empty too. This means the incoming request likely didn't have a JSON, form-encoded, or other body content, which is common for a simple GET request.\n * `webhookUrl`: This shows the exact URL that was hit: `http:\/\/localhost:5678\/webhook-test\/FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`. The `\/webhook-test\/` part is significant; it indicates this was a test execution initiated within the n8n editor, rather than a production webhook URL.\n * `executionMode`: Set to `\"test\"`, which confirms what I just deduced from the `webhookUrl`. This is critical for understanding the context of this captured data.\n\nSo, this `pinData` effectively shows us what a test call to this webhook, coming from a `localhost:5678` environment, would look like if it were a simple HTTP request, likely a GET, with no query parameters or request body, but with typical browser-like headers. This is great for setting up the workflow and knowing what kind of data to expect from the trigger.\n\nAnd that's it!

Both triggers should connect to a \"Set\" node named \"Edit Fields\", which sets a field called `prevNode` to the name of the node that precedes it.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6a8c3d85-26f8-4f28-ace9-55a196a23d37\", \"name\": \"prevNode\", \"value\": \"={{ $prevNode.name }}\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [200, -100]}, {\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Trigger A\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [0, -100]}, {\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Trigger B\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [0, 100]}], \"connections\": {\"Trigger A\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Trigger B\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's think through building this n8n workflow step by step, just as I would if I were designing it from scratch.\n\nFirst, I need to consider the entry points of this workflow. The prompt specifies \"two schedule trigger nodes.\" This immediately tells me I'll need to start with trigger nodes that activate based on a schedule.\n\nSo, I'll begin by adding the first schedule trigger. I'll choose the **scheduleTrigger** node, specifically `typeVersion: 1.2`. This type of node is perfect because its sole purpose is to start a workflow at predetermined intervals. The JSON indicates it's named \"Trigger A\", so I'll name it that for clarity within the workflow canvas. Looking at its parameters, it has a `rule` for the `interval`. The JSON shows an empty object `{}`, which means it's set to its default, likely running once as soon as the workflow is activated or on a default short interval, which is fine as the prompt doesn't specify a particular schedule.\n\nNext, the prompt also asks for a second schedule trigger, \"Trigger B.\" So, I'll add another **scheduleTrigger** node, again `typeVersion: 1.2`. Just like the first one, it's designed to initiate the workflow based on a schedule. I'll name this one \"Trigger B\" as requested. Its `rule` and `interval` parameters are identical to \"Trigger A,\" again taking on the default schedule behavior.\n\nNow that I have my two starting points, I need to think about where they lead. The prompt states \"Both triggers should connect to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields', which sets a field called `prevNode` to the name of the node that precedes it.\"\n\nThis tells me my next node will be a \"Set\" node. I'll add a **Set** node, which is `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.4`. This node type is ideal for manipulating data by adding, changing, or removing fields from incoming items. In this case, I need to add a new field. I'll name this node \"Edit Fields\" as specified.\n\nNow, for the crucial configuration of the \"Edit Fields\" node. The requirement is to set a field called `prevNode` to the name of the node that precedes it. Within the `parameters` of the Set node, specifically in `assignments`, I'll add a new assignment. The `name` of the field will be `prevNode`. For its `value`, I need to use an n8n expression that dynamically retrieves the name of the previous node. n8n provides a special variable for this: `$prevNode`. And to get its name, I'd append `.name`. So, the value expression will be `={{ $prevNode.name }}`. This expression is enclosed in `{{ }}` to indicate it's a dynamic value, and `$prevNode` refers to the immediate upstream node that sent data to this Set node. This is a very powerful feature of n8n, allowing context-aware data manipulation. The `type` for this assignment will be `string`, as a node name is text.\n\nFinally, I need to connect everything. The prompt clearly states \"Both triggers should connect to a 'Set' node.\" So, I'll draw a connection from the \"main\" output of \"Trigger A\" to the \"main\" input of \"Edit Fields.\" Similarly, I'll draw another connection from the \"main\" output of \"Trigger B\" to the \"main\" input of \"Edit Fields.\" This ensures that no matter which trigger initiates the workflow, the data (or in this case, the context of the originating node) flows into the \"Edit Fields\" node for processing. The \"Set\" node will then receive data from either \"Trigger A\" or \"Trigger B\" and correctly identify which one of them was the `$prevNode`." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a single Airtable node named 'Airtable'.

The prompt is quite clear: a single Airtable node, specific name, specific position, and some interesting validation rules for its fields.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need to do is add the core component of this workflow: the Airtable node. There's no preceding node, no trigger specified, so this will be the starting point, existing on its own for now.\n\nI'll choose the \"Airtable\" node, which in n8n's internal structure is identified by `n8n-nodes-base.airtable`. This node type is perfectly suited because the user's request is directly about interacting with Airtable \u2013 whether it's reading, writing, or just having a placeholder for Airtable operations. The JSON specifies `typeVersion: 1`. This is good to note; it means we're using a specific iteration of the node's definition. Sometimes, newer versions might introduce different ways to configure things or add new functionalities, but for a basic setup like this, version 1 should be entirely sufficient and directly aligns with the provided structure.\n\nOnce I have that node on the canvas, the prompt asks for it to be named \"Airtable\". I'll make sure its `name` property is set to exactly that. Good, clear naming is always helpful for understanding workflows at a glance.\n\nNext, I need to place it correctly. The prompt specifies coordinates `380, 180`. I'll adjust the node's `position` property to `[380, 180]` on the canvas. This is purely for visual organization and doesn't impact the workflow's execution, but it's important for adhering to the design specifications.\n\nNow, for the crucial part: configuring the 'Application' and 'Table' fields. The prompt is very specific: they need to accept Airtable URLs, have validation rules, but remain empty.\n\nLet's tackle the 'Application' field first.\nThe JSON shows this field under `parameters.application`.\nIt has `\"mode\": \"url\"`. This is key. It tells n8n to expect a URL as the input for this field. This directly addresses the \"accept Airtable URLs\" requirement.\nThen, there's `\"value\": \"\"`. This fulfills the \"leave their values empty\" part. So, it's set up to receive a URL, but no specific URL is provided at this stage.\nAnd here's the validation: `\"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. This regular expression is brilliant. It ensures that whatever URL is eventually entered into this field must start with \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/\" followed by at least two alphanumeric characters, which typically corresponds to an Airtable base ID. This is exactly what \"with validation rules\" means \u2013 ensuring the input conforms to a specific pattern, making the workflow more robust against incorrect user input. The `__rl: true` also indicates that this field is treated as a raw literal value rather than an expression.\n\nMoving on to the 'Table' field, which is under `parameters.table`.\nSimilar to 'Application', it also has `\"mode\": \"url\"`, confirming it's also expecting a URL.\nIts `\"value\": \"\"` again means it's left empty, as per the prompt.\nAnd for its validation, the `__regex` is `\"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. This regex is slightly different and more specific. It requires the base URL part (`https:\/\/airtable.com\/[base ID]`) followed by another slash and then the table ID (`[table ID]`). This is perfect for validating a full Airtable table URL, ensuring it points to a specific table within a base. This strengthens the validation rules for the workflow. The `__rl: true` also applies here, signifying a raw literal value.\n\nFinally, I look at connections. The prompt only mentions a single node, and the JSON confirms there are no connections (`\"connections\": {}`). This makes sense. This workflow is just setting up a single node with its initial configuration, not a flow of data between multiple nodes. If this were part of a larger system, I'd then consider what triggers this Airtable node (e.g., a \"Webhook\" node, a \"Cron\" node) or what it connects to if it were to process or output data. But for this specific task, a standalone node is precisely what's needed.\n\nSo, to recap, I've got the `n8n-nodes-base.airtable` node at `typeVersion: 1`, named \"Airtable\", positioned correctly. Its 'Application' and 'Table' fields are configured to expect URLs, are left empty, and critically, enforce valid Airtable URL formats using specific regular expressions. No connections are present as it's a single, self-contained configuration. This completely fulfills the user's request." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers adding an event to Google Calendar.

The user wants to create an n8n workflow to add an event to Google Calendar, and importantly, it needs to be manually triggered. This gives us a clear starting point.\n\nFirst off, since it's a \"manual trigger,\" the very first node we'll need is something that allows us to initiate the workflow ourselves. Looking at the n8n nodes available, the `Manual Trigger` node is perfectly suited for this. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and we'll use `typeVersion: 1` which is a common and stable version for this type of basic trigger. I'll give it a descriptive name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's clear what it does. This node doesn't really need any specific parameters, it's just there to kick things off when we tell it to.\n\nOnce we've got our trigger in place, the next step is to actually perform the action: adding an event to Google Calendar. This immediately tells me we'll need a node that can interact with Google Calendar. n8n has a dedicated `Google Calendar` node, which is exactly what we need. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleCalendar`, and `typeVersion: 1` should work fine for this operation. I'll connect the output of our \"On clicking 'execute'\" node directly to the input of this \"Google Calendar\" node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the Google Calendar operation will immediately follow.\n\nNow, let's think about how to configure this \"Google Calendar\" node. The user prompt provides specific details: \"The event should run from June 25, 2020, 7 AM UTC to June 27, 2020, 7 AM UTC, on the 'shaligramshraddha@gmail.com' calendar.\"\n\nSo, within the `Google Calendar` node's parameters, we'll need to set the `start` and `end` times. The prompt gives us UTC times, and n8n typically handles ISO 8601 formatted timestamps well, which often includes timezone information (like 'Z' for UTC). So, for the start time, we'll set the `start` parameter to \"2020-06-25T07:00:00.000Z\". For the end time, the `end` parameter will be \"2020-06-27T07:00:00.000Z\". These values are quite precise and reflect the exact duration requested.\n\nNext, we need to specify which calendar the event should be added to. The user explicitly mentioned \"'shaligramshraddha@gmail.com' calendar\". So, the `calendar` parameter in our \"Google Calendar\" node will be set to \"shaligramshraddha@gmail.com\". This tells the node exactly where to create the event.\n\nFinally, for the \"Google Calendar\" node to actually communicate with Google's API, it needs proper authentication. This would involve configuring a credential, likely an OAuth2 credential given it's Google Calendar. So, we'll indicate that a Google Calendar OAuth2 API credential, perhaps a newly created one, needs to be linked here. This handles the necessary authorization without needing to expose any sensitive keys directly in the workflow itself. As for `additionalFields`, the prompt doesn't specify any other details like a title or description, so we'll leave that empty for now. If the user later wanted to add a title, say \"My Event\", we'd add it in the `additionalFields` section. But for now, just the times and calendar are specified.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it. A simple manual trigger, connected to a Google Calendar node, with all the essential event details configured in the parameters. This creates a straightforward, functional workflow for the user's request." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, connects to a 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node to `getAllPeople` with a `limit` of 10, and then pipes this output to a 'Set' node that adds `objectValue.prop1` as a number (123) and `objectValue.prop2` as a string (\"someText\"), using dot notation.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\", \"limit\": 10}, \"name\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop1\", \"value\": 123}], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop2\", \"value\": \"someText\"}]}, \"options\": {\"dotNotation\": true}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1080, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 440]}], \"connections\": {\"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed! The prompt gives us a very clear starting point and a sequence of operations, so I'll follow that structure.\n\nFirst things first, the prompt says the workflow \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me what my initial node needs to be.\n\nSo, I'll start by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. This is a very common starting point for workflows, especially when I want to test them out or kick them off manually. It's essentially just waiting for a user to click a button to begin.\n* Its node `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the standard manual trigger node in n8n.\n* Looking at its parameters, there's nothing specific to configure here; it simply acts as an entry point. This makes sense; it's a simple start.\n\nNext, the prompt states it \"connects to a 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node to `getAllPeople` with a `limit` of 10.\" This tells me the very next step and how it should be configured.\n\nSo, I'll connect the output of my Manual Trigger node to a **Customer Datastore (n8n training)** node. This sounds like a specialized node, probably part of a training environment, designed to simulate interactions with a customer database.\n* Its node `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This specific type suggests it's a pre-built integration for the training environment, which is perfect for our use case here.\n* For its configuration, the prompt specifies two things:\n * The `operation` should be `getAllPeople`. This tells the node exactly what action to perform on the datastore. I'd select this from a dropdown or input field within the node's settings.\n * It also needs a `limit` of `10`. This is important because we don't want to fetch an unbounded number of records; limiting it to 10 makes the workflow more efficient and manageable for this specific task.\n* The connection from the Manual Trigger to this node will be a `main` connection, meaning the data (or rather, the signal to proceed) flows directly from the trigger into this data retrieval step.\n\nFinally, the prompt says to \"pipe this output to a 'Set' node that adds `objectValue.prop1` as a number (123) and `objectValue.prop2` as a string (\"someText\"), using dot notation.\" This defines the last step and its data manipulation.\n\nI'll connect the output of the 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node to a **Set** node. The Set node is incredibly versatile for adding, modifying, or removing data fields from incoming items. It's the perfect choice for injecting new, fixed values into our data.\n* Its node `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the standard Set node that provides robust data transformation capabilities.\n* For its configuration, there are a few key parameters to set:\n * First, the prompt explicitly mentions \"using dot notation.\" This is a crucial `option` to enable. By setting `dotNotation` to `true`, I can create nested properties like `objectValue.prop1` directly, without having to build up the object structure manually in an expression. It's a real convenience feature.\n * Next, I need to add the specified values.\n * For `objectValue.prop1` as a number `123`, I'll add a new \"Number\" field. The `name` of this field will be `objectValue.prop1`, and its `value` will be `123`. This ensures the data type is correctly set to a number.\n * For `objectValue.prop2` as a string `\"someText\"`, I'll add a new \"String\" field. The `name` of this field will be `objectValue.prop2`, and its `value` will be `\"someText\"`. Again, this explicitly defines the data type and the literal string value.\n* The connection from the 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node to this Set node will also be a `main` connection, ensuring that all the people records fetched by the previous node are passed as individual items into the Set node for modification. Each item will then have these new properties added to it." } { "prompt": "Manually trigger a workflow that sets a PostgreSQL table name as \"booksRead\", queries all data from that table, and then converts the results into a CSV file.", "json": "{\"name\": \"PostgreSQL export to CSV\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Execute Workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [660, 420]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"toFile\", \"fileFormat\": \"csv\"}, \"name\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1260, 420]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"string\": [{\"name\": \"TableName\", \"value\": \"booksRead\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"TableName\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [840, 420]}, {\"parameters\": {\"query\": \"=SELECT * FROM {{ $json[\\\"TableName\\\"] }}\", \"operation\": \"executeQuery\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Postgres\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.postgres\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1060, 420]}], \"connections\": {\"Postgres\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"TableName\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Postgres\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"When clicking \\\"Execute Workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"TableName\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's break down how I'd construct this workflow, step by step, based on the requirements and the provided n8n JSON.\n\nFirst, the user wants to \"Manually trigger a workflow\". This immediately tells me I need a starting point that's initiated by a user action.\n\n**Node 1: When clicking \"Execute Workflow\"**\n* **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Reasoning:** This is the most direct and intuitive way to fulfill the \"manually trigger\" requirement. It provides a simple button within the n8n UI for a user to start the workflow. It's the perfect initial node for a user-initiated process. I don't need any special configurations for it; its default behavior is exactly what's needed here.\n\nNext, the prompt states that the workflow \"sets a PostgreSQL table name as \"booksRead\"\". This implies I need to define or store this table name somewhere so that it can be used later in the PostgreSQL query.\n\n**Node 2: TableName**\n* **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Reasoning:** A `Set` node is ideal for defining custom data or variables that can be passed down the workflow. It allows me to create a specific field with a desired value. This is much cleaner than hardcoding the table name directly into the PostgreSQL query, as it makes the workflow more flexible if the table name ever needed to change.\n* **Configuration:** I'd configure it to add a string value. The name of this field will be `TableName`, and its value will be `booksRead`, exactly as specified in the prompt. This node will effectively output an item that contains a property named `TableName` with the value \"booksRead\".\n* **Connection:** This `TableName` node would connect directly from the output of the \"When clicking \"Execute Workflow\"\" node. The trigger simply passes an empty item, and this `Set` node then adds the `TableName` property to that item.\n\nNow that the table name is set, the workflow needs to \"query all data from that table\". This clearly points to a database node, specifically PostgreSQL.\n\n**Node 3: Postgres**\n* **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.postgres`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Reasoning:** Since the requirement is to query a PostgreSQL database, the `Postgres` node is the most appropriate choice. It provides the necessary interface to connect to and interact with a PostgreSQL instance.\n* **Configuration:**\n * **Operation:** The operation needs to be `executeQuery` because I want to run a custom SQL query to fetch all data. Other operations like `insert`, `update`, `delete` wouldn't fit here.\n * **Query:** This is where the magic happens. I'll write `SELECT * FROM {{ $json[\"TableName\"] }}`. The `{{ $json[\"TableName\"] }}` part is critical. It uses an expression to dynamically pull the `TableName` value that was set in the previous `Set` node. This way, the query knows exactly which table to select data from. This is a robust way to build dynamic queries.\n * **Credentials:** This node would require credentials to connect to the PostgreSQL database. I would select an existing PostgreSQL account credential (like the one identified as \"Postgres account\" with ID \"33\" in the JSON) which would contain all the necessary connection details like host, port, database name, username, and password. These sensitive details are managed securely via credentials and are not exposed directly in the workflow's JSON.\n* **Connection:** This `Postgres` node would connect from the \"TableName\" node. The item flowing from \"TableName\" will contain the `TableName` property, which the `Postgres` node can then access and use in its query. The output of this node will be the actual data from the \"booksRead\" table, typically as an array of JSON objects, where each object represents a row from the database.\n\nFinally, the prompt says to \"then converts the results into a CSV file.\" This is the last step for data transformation and output.\n\n**Node 4: Spreadsheet File**\n* **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Reasoning:** The `Spreadsheet File` node is excellent for handling various spreadsheet-related operations, including converting data between formats like JSON to CSV. It's perfectly suited for taking the tabular data output by the PostgreSQL query and formatting it into a CSV file.\n* **Configuration:**\n * **Operation:** I'd set the operation to `toFile`. This tells the node that its purpose is to take the incoming data and convert it into a file format.\n * **File Format:** The prompt specifically asks for a CSV file, so I'd select `csv` here. This instructs the node to format the data with comma-separated values, including a header row.\n* **Connection:** This `Spreadsheet File` node would receive its input from the `Postgres` node. The data retrieved from the database (the rows of books read) will be passed directly to this node, which will then perform the conversion to CSV format. The output of this node would be a binary file item containing the CSV data, ready to be saved, sent via email, or uploaded somewhere." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a Manual Trigger, then uses a Microsoft Excel node to get all rows and requires credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"filters\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\"}, \"name\": \"Microsoft Excel\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.microsoftExcel\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Microsoft Excel\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this n8n workflow designed and built. The user prompt is pretty clear: \"Create an n8n workflow that starts with a Manual Trigger, then uses a Microsoft Excel node to get all rows and requires credentials.\" This gives us a good roadmap for the core structure.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. Since the prompt specifies a \"Manual Trigger,\" that's naturally where we'll begin.\n\nSo, I'm going to add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. Its `typeVersion` is `1` as per the JSON, which is a standard and robust version for this basic trigger. This node is perfect because it allows me to execute the workflow whenever I click the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n editor, or via its specific trigger URL. It's great for testing, or for workflows that are meant to be run on demand. Looking at its `parameters`, they're empty, which makes sense for a manual trigger \u2013 there's no dynamic input needed to start it, just a click. I'll place it at the beginning of our workflow, typically on the left side, to signify it's the starting point.\n\nNow that we have our trigger in place, what's next? The prompt says \"then uses a Microsoft Excel node to get all rows.\" This tells us precisely what the second node should be and what it should do.\n\nSo, my next step is to add a `Microsoft Excel` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.microsoftExcel`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the current standard. This node is ideal because it provides direct integration with Microsoft Excel files, allowing us to perform various operations, and in our case, retrieve data.\n\nNow, how do we configure this `Microsoft Excel` node? The prompt specifically asks to \"get all rows.\" Looking at the JSON, the `operation` parameter is set to `\"getAll\"`. This directly translates to the requirement; it will fetch all available rows from the specified Excel resource. The `filters` parameter is an empty object `{}`, which means we're not applying any specific criteria to narrow down the rows; we truly want *all* of them. If we wanted to filter, we'd configure conditions here, but for \"getAll,\" it's left blank.\n\nA crucial part of the prompt is \"requires credentials.\" The `Microsoft Excel` node, like many integrations with external services, needs to authenticate. The JSON clearly shows a `credentials` block with `microsoftExcelOAuth2Api: \"ms-oauth-creds\"`. This indicates that the node will rely on a pre-configured Microsoft Excel OAuth2 API credential. This credential would handle the authentication flow (like connecting to a Microsoft account) and ensure secure access to the user's Excel files. Without this, the node wouldn't be able to connect to the Excel service. I don't need to know the actual value of \"ms-oauth-creds\", just that it's a reference to a configured credential.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The output of our `Manual Trigger` needs to feed into the input of our `Microsoft Excel` node. The `connections` object in the JSON shows `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Microsoft Excel\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` node (named \"On clicking 'execute'\" in the workflow) is connected to the `main` input of the `Microsoft Excel` node. This establishes the flow: when the workflow is manually triggered, it will then proceed to execute the Microsoft Excel operation. The `index: 0` simply refers to the first input of the Excel node.\n\nSo, to summarize the flow in my head: User clicks \"Execute Workflow\" -> The `Manual Trigger` fires -> The workflow proceeds to the `Microsoft Excel` node -> The `Microsoft Excel` node uses the pre-configured credentials to connect to the service -> It then performs the `getAll` operation to retrieve all rows from the specified Excel file or sheet.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow as per the requirements. Nothing more needed based on the provided JSON and prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers on a chat message and connects to an AI Agent. Configure the AI Agent to use an E2E Chat Model that returns the response \"Hello from **e2e** model!!!\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"When chat message received\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"AI Agent\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.agent\", \"typeVersion\": 1.9, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"response\": \"Hello from **e2e** model!!!\"}, \"name\": \"E2E Chat Model\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatE2eTest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [308, 220]}], \"connections\": {\"When chat message received\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AI Agent\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"AI Agent\": {\"main\": [[]]}, \"E2E Chat Model\": {\"ai_languageModel\": [[{\"node\": \"AI Agent\", \"type\": \"ai_languageModel\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down how I'd put this workflow together, thinking through each piece as I go.\n\nFirst off, the request is to create an n8n workflow that triggers on a chat message. So, the very first thing I need is a node that listens for and captures incoming chat messages. Looking at the available nodes, the `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` node, named \"When chat message received\" in this case, seems to be the perfect fit. It's designed specifically for this purpose, acting as the entry point for any chat-based interaction. Its `typeVersion` is 1.1, indicating a stable version for this functionality. I'd place this node at the very beginning of my workflow canvas. I don't need to configure anything specific on it; its default behavior of listening for messages is exactly what's required.\n\nNext, the prompt states that the workflow needs to connect to an AI Agent. This is where the brain of our interaction will reside. I'd look for an AI Agent node, and naturally, the `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.agent` node, named \"AI Agent\", is precisely what's needed. Its `typeVersion` is 1.9. This node is fantastic because it can take user input, decide what to do with it (like call tools or generate responses), and then output the result. I'll connect the \"main\" output of the \"When chat message received\" node to the \"main\" input of the \"AI Agent\" node. This ensures that any chat message received by the trigger is immediately passed along to the AI Agent for processing.\n\nNow, the crucial part: \"Configure the AI Agent to use an E2E Chat Model that returns the response 'Hello from **e2e** model!!!'\". This tells me two things. The AI Agent needs a language model to use, and that model needs to be a very specific one that always returns a predetermined string. So, I need to add another node for the language model itself. The JSON shows a node called \"E2E Chat Model\" with the type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatE2eTest` and `typeVersion` 1. This is clearly a specialized test model, perfect for situations where you want a consistent, predictable output rather than a dynamic one.\n\nTo link this \"E2E Chat Model\" to the \"AI Agent\", I'll use the specific language model connection. The \"E2E Chat Model\" node's `ai_languageModel` output will connect to the \"AI Agent\" node's `ai_languageModel` input. This essentially tells the \"AI Agent\" that whenever it needs to generate a response or understand something using a language model, it should defer to this \"E2E Chat Model\".\n\nFinally, I need to configure the \"E2E Chat Model\" itself to return the specified text. The JSON shows `{\"response\": \"Hello from **e2e** model!!!\"}` within its parameters. This is exactly what I'd set. This configuration ensures that whenever the \"AI Agent\" calls upon this \"E2E Chat Model\" to produce a response, it will consistently return \"Hello from **e2e** model!!!\", fulfilling the requirement.\n\nOnce the AI Agent gets this response from the E2E Chat Model, it will then automatically send it back to the `chatTrigger` node, which will then relay it as a reply to the user who sent the initial chat message. The workflow implicitly handles the response back to the chat trigger, so no further main connections are needed from the AI Agent node." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a **Manual Trigger** node.

The user's request is quite clear: start with a Manual Trigger, then connect it to a Set node, and finally, flow into another Set node which needs to be named \"Set1\".\n\nFirst things first, I need an entry point for this workflow. The prompt explicitly states it should start with a \"Manual Trigger\" node. This is ideal because it allows someone to kick off the workflow simply by clicking a button in the n8n UI, which is great for testing or when the workflow doesn't need to respond to an external event like a webhook or a schedule.\n\nSo, the very first node I'll add is the **Manual Trigger** node.\nIts `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is 1. This node typically doesn't have many configuration parameters itself, as its primary job is just to initiate the workflow. Looking at the JSON, its `parameters` object is indeed empty `{}`. It simply outputs a single item to kick things off. Internally, n8n also marks it as the starting node, which is reflected in the `pinData` where `start: true` is set for this node. I'll name it \"On clicking 'execute'\" as per the JSON, which is a very descriptive default name for a manual trigger.\n\nNow that I have my starting point, I need to connect it to the next node. The prompt says \"Connect it to a Set node\". A **Set** node is a very versatile utility node in n8n. Its main purpose is to manipulate data: you can add new fields, remove existing ones, or change the values of current fields. Even if no specific data manipulation is needed right now, it's a common intermediate node for processing or preparing data for subsequent steps.\n\nSo, the next node will be a **Set** node.\nIts `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is 1. I'll name this one \"Set\" as per the JSON.\nFor its configuration, the JSON shows `parameters: {\"options\": {}}`. This indicates that, for this specific workflow, there are no particular fields being added or modified by *this* Set node. It's essentially acting as a pass-through node right now, just fulfilling the connection requirement. If I were designing this for a real-world scenario, I might pause here and think, \"Do I need to initialize some variables, or set a default status, or maybe add a timestamp right at the beginning?\" If so, this would be the perfect place to add those key\/value pairs. But for this specific request, it's left empty, which is perfectly valid.\n\nNow for the connections. The Manual Trigger needs to feed into this first Set node. So, the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's main output (`\"type\": \"main\"`) will connect to the \"Set\" node's main input (`\"type\": \"main\"`). This ensures that the data (or lack thereof, initially) from the trigger flows directly into the Set node for processing.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that this first Set node \"then flows into another Set node named **Set1**\". This means I need one more node, and it will also be a **Set** node. The name \"Set1\" is explicitly requested, which helps identify its role, especially if there are multiple Set nodes in a complex workflow.\n\nSo, the third node I'll add is another **Set** node.\nIts `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is 1. I will name this one \"Set1\" exactly as requested.\nSimilar to the previous Set node, its `parameters` are also `{\"options\": {}}`, meaning no specific data transformations are defined here either. It's primarily here to complete the requested workflow structure. Again, if this workflow were to evolve, perhaps \"Set1\" could be where I'd add a unique identifier to the data, or perhaps aggregate some information, or clean up certain fields before sending them to a final destination. But for now, it's a structural element.\n\nAnd for the connection, the first \"Set\" node's main output (`\"type\": \"main\"`) will connect to the \"Set1\" node's main input (`\"type\": \"main\"`). This completes the linear flow: Trigger -> Set -> Set1. The data, whatever it might be at this point, will pass sequentially through all three nodes." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that sends a private message using the Zulip node. The workflow should be triggered manually.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Send a private message on Zulip\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"to\": []}, \"name\": \"Zulip\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.zulip\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Zulip\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow. The user wants to create a workflow that sends a private message using the Zulip node, and it needs to be triggered manually. I have the blueprint right here in the provided JSON.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick off this workflow manually. Looking at the user's request, \"triggered manually\" immediately points me to a specific type of trigger node.\n\nSo, the first node I'll add to the canvas will be a trigger node. Based on the JSON, the chosen node for this is the **Manual Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because, as its name suggests, it allows the workflow to be executed simply by clicking a button in the n8n interface, which directly fulfills the requirement for a manual trigger. There are no specific parameters to configure for this node; it just sits there waiting for a click, as indicated by its empty `parameters` object `{}` in the JSON.\n\nNext, the core of the request is to \"send a private message using the Zulip node.\" This tells me what the very next step in the workflow must be: a Zulip node. So, from the manual trigger, I'll connect it directly to a **Zulip** node.\n\nLooking at the JSON for this node, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.zulip`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the dedicated node for interacting with the Zulip API, which is exactly what we need to send a message.\n\nNow, let's think about how to configure this Zulip node. To send any message via Zulip, it needs to know *how* to connect to my Zulip instance. This means it requires credentials. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"zulipApi\": \"\"}`. This `zulipApi` credential property is where I would configure the API key, server URL, and other necessary information to authenticate with my Zulip account. For security reasons, I wouldn't put actual sensitive values directly into the workflow JSON itself; instead, n8n manages them securely. I'd typically set up a named credential in n8n's credentials section, and then select that named credential here.\n\nThe next important part of the Zulip node's configuration is its `parameters`. The JSON specifies `parameters: {\"to\": []}`. This is quite interesting for a \"private message.\" Typically, when sending a private message in Zulip, you need to specify the recipient(s). The `to` parameter is used to list the email addresses of the users who should receive the private message. An empty array `[]` here means that, as it stands, this node isn't configured to send a private message to *anyone* specific. To fulfill the \"send a private message\" part of the prompt, I would expect this array to contain one or more recipient email addresses, for example, `[\"user1@example.com\", \"user2@example.com\"]`.\n\nFurthermore, for a complete Zulip message, whether private or to a stream, you would also typically specify the `messageType` (which would be 'private' in this case) and the `content` of the message. These are not present in the `parameters` object in the provided JSON. This tells me that this workflow, as defined by the JSON, is a foundational setup for using the Zulip node, but it's not yet fully configured to send a *functional* private message with content to a specific recipient. If I were building this from scratch to *fully* meet the prompt's request, I would definitely add `messageType: 'private'` and `content: 'Your message here'` to the parameters, and populate the `to` array. But for this exercise, I'm explaining what's *given*.\n\nFinally, let's look at the connections. The `connections` object clearly defines how the nodes link up. It states that the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node (our manual trigger) has a `main` connection that flows directly to the \"Zulip\" node. This is a straightforward, linear flow: when the manual trigger is activated, it passes an empty input item to the Zulip node, prompting it to execute with its configured parameters. There's no complex data transformation or routing needed between these two nodes; the trigger simply signals the Zulip node to perform its action." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile Best Practices for Prompt Writing\".

The prompt says it should be \"triggered by a webhook at path `b6a48197-7776-45fb-9cec-88c976971b57`\". So, the very first thing we need is a node that can listen for incoming web requests.\n\nFor that, a **Webhook node** is the perfect choice. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and the JSON shows `typeVersion` `2`. This node is designed specifically for receiving HTTP requests, which is exactly what a webhook is. I'd add this node to the canvas right at the start.\n\nNow, how do I configure it? The prompt specifies a particular path for the webhook: `b6a48197-7776-45fb-9cec-88c976971b57`. So, within the Webhook node's parameters, I'd set the `path` field to this exact string. Another important setting for a webhook that needs to send a response back later in the workflow is its `responseMode`. Since another node will be handling the actual response, I'll set `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells the webhook to hold open the connection until a dedicated 'Respond to Webhook' node sends the final reply. If I didn't set this, the webhook would likely respond immediately with an empty 200 OK, which isn't what we want here.\n\nAlright, the workflow is triggered. What's next? The prompt states, \"then retrieve content from the Google Doc at `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1SWrpxi5jfVL79ftSA1u3PZL_wuzcfYFsA_5g02Kuet0\/view`.\" This clearly indicates we need a way to interact with Google Docs.\n\nSo, the next node in our workflow should be a **Google Docs node**. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and the `typeVersion` is `2`. I'll connect the `main` output of our Webhook node to the `main` input of this new Google Docs node, establishing a clear execution flow.\n\nFor the configuration of the Google Docs node, the primary goal is to retrieve content. Therefore, the `operation` parameter must be set to `get`. This operation is designed to fetch the content of a document. Then, I need to tell it *which* document to get. The prompt provides the URL: `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1SWrpxi5jfVL79ftSA1u3PZL_wuzcfYFsA_5g02Kuet0\/view`. I'd input this URL into the `documentURL` parameter. Of course, to access a private Google Doc, this node will also require authentication. The JSON indicates `googleDocsOAuth2Api` credentials would be set up, which is how n8n securely connects to Google services using OAuth2. I wouldn't specify the actual credentials here, just acknowledge that they are needed for the node to function correctly.\n\nSo, at this point, the workflow has been triggered, and we've successfully retrieved the content of the Google Doc. What's the final step? The prompt says, \"and finally respond to the webhook with the retrieved content using `{{ $json.content }}`.\"\n\nThis means we need a node specifically designed to send a response back to the waiting webhook. The ideal candidate for this is the **Respond to Webhook node**. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, and the `typeVersion` is `1.1`. I'll connect the `main` output of the Google Docs node to the `main` input of this Respond to Webhook node. This ensures that the response is only sent *after* the content has been successfully retrieved from Google Docs.\n\nNow, for configuring this final node. The prompt specifies \"respond with the retrieved content\". The content we got from the Google Docs node will typically be available in an output field, often named `content`. So, I'd set the `respondWith` parameter to `text` because the document content is text. Then, for the `responseBody` field, I need to dynamically insert the content retrieved by the Google Docs node. The prompt even gives the exact expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression accesses the `content` field from the previous node's output, allowing us to send the actual document text back to the initial webhook caller. And with that, the workflow's purpose is fulfilled." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"WAHA - Restart Server at midnight\" that runs daily at midnight, triggering a WAHA node to stop the \"Observability\" resource using WAHA API credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"WAHA - Restart Server at midnight\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Schedule Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [460, 540]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"Observability\", \"operation\": \"Stop\", \"requestOptions\": {}}, \"name\": \"Restart WAHA\", \"type\": \"@devlikeapro\/n8n-nodes-waha.WAHA\", \"typeVersion\": 202409, \"position\": [720, 540]}], \"connections\": {\"Schedule Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Restart WAHA\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think through building this n8n workflow step by step, imagining I'm at the drawing board.\n\nThe user prompt specifies a few key things: the workflow name, a daily schedule at midnight, and an action \u2013 stopping a specific resource (\"Observability\") using a WAHA node and API credentials.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. How do we make this run daily at midnight? The most straightforward way to achieve a recurring schedule in n8n is using a Schedule Trigger node.\n\nSo, I'd drag out a **Schedule Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1.2`. This is perfect for setting up a recurring schedule.\n\nNow, how do I configure it to run \"daily at midnight\"? I'd go into its parameters. I see `parameters.rule.interval` is configured. This is where I'd set up the exact schedule. To make it run daily at midnight, I'd typically configure the \"Interval\" to \"Every Day\" and set the \"Time\" to `00:00`. The JSON shows `interval: [{}]` which implies a default or specific interval configuration would be applied to achieve the \"daily at midnight\" requirement. This node, positioned at `[460, 540]`, will be our entry point.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, what's the next step? The prompt says \"triggering a WAHA node to stop the 'Observability' resource.\" This clearly tells me I need a WAHA node.\n\nSo, I'd add a **WAHA** node right after the Schedule Trigger. Its `type` is `@devlikeapro\/n8n-nodes-waha.WAHA` and its `typeVersion` is `202409`. This is the specific integration node for interacting with WAHA.\n\nNow, to configure this WAHA node, I need to tell it what to do. The prompt specifies \"stop the 'Observability' resource.\" In the WAHA node's parameters, I'd look for fields related to resource management. I see `parameters.resource` set to `\"Observability\"`, which directly matches the target resource mentioned in the prompt. And for the action, `parameters.operation` is set to `\"Stop\"`. This precisely fulfills the requirement to stop that specific resource.\n\nIt also mentions \"using WAHA API credentials.\" The JSON shows `credentials.wahaApi`. This is where I would link the pre-configured API credentials for the WAHA service. The actual ID and name (`\"kGRloiEEB0Ky91l6\"`, `\"noweb-files\"`) are references to specific credential sets that would have been previously securely stored in n8n. I wouldn't know the values themselves, just that a credential set is needed and linked here. There's also `requestOptions: {}`, which suggests no special request options are needed for this particular operation, or default ones are sufficient. This WAHA node is positioned at `[720, 540]`.\n\nFinally, how do these two nodes connect? The Schedule Trigger needs to initiate the WAHA node. So, I'd draw a connection from the \"Schedule Trigger\" node's `main` output to the \"Restart WAHA\" (which is the name given to our WAHA node) node's `main` input. This is reflected in the `connections` object: `{\"Schedule Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Restart WAHA\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This ensures that when the schedule triggers, the WAHA operation is executed.\n\nThe workflow also has a `name`: \"WAHA - Restart Server at midnight\", which matches the user prompt. It's set to `active: true`, so it'll run once deployed. The `settings.executionOrder` is `v1`, and there are some `meta` details like `templateCredsSetupCompleted` and an `instanceId` which are internal workflow management details. The `id` and `versionId` are unique identifiers for this specific workflow instance and its version.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The Schedule Trigger sets the timing, and the WAHA node performs the specified action on the target resource, all linked sequentially." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFilePersonasInPrompting\" that listens for a webhook at \"Onboarding\/PromptEngineer\/PersonasInPrompting\".

The goal is pretty clear: we need to listen for a webhook, fetch some content from a Google Doc, and then send that content back as a response.\n\nFirst things first, a workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly says it \"listens for a webhook\". This immediately tells me that the very first node we'll need is a `Webhook` node. It's the standard way to initiate an n8n workflow based on an incoming HTTP request. Looking at the JSON, it's a `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, and it's using `typeVersion: 2`, which is good; newer versions often have better features or stability.\n\nNow, how do we configure this `Webhook` node? The prompt gives us the exact path it should listen on: \"Onboarding\/PromptEngineer\/PersonasInPrompting\". So, I'd set the `path` parameter of this node to that specific string. This means when an HTTP request comes into our n8n instance at that relative path, this workflow will spring into action.\n\nNext, the prompt states that the workflow should \"retrieve the content\" and \"respond with that content.\" For a webhook that's meant to provide a response, we need to tell the `Webhook` node that another node will handle the actual response. This is done by setting the `responseMode` parameter to \"responseNode\". This prevents the webhook from immediately sending a default empty response and instead waits for a dedicated response node later in the flow.\n\nOkay, the `Webhook` is set up to receive. What's the very next logical step? The prompt says \"retrieve the content from the Google Docs URL\". This points directly to needing a `Google Docs` node. There's really no other native n8n node that directly interacts with Google Docs in this way to fetch content.\n\nSo, I'd add a `Google Docs` node right after the `Webhook`. Checking the JSON, it's `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion: 2`. This makes sense.\n\nFor configuring this `Google Docs` node, the primary goal is to \"retrieve the content.\" Within the `Google Docs` node, this translates to setting the `operation` parameter to \"get\". Then, the specific document URL is provided in the prompt: \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/15iaNMK08tUIU9qdvunK6NxvvypixAAlEHEMSjN3l7E8\/edit\". So, that URL would be put into the `documentURL` parameter. Of course, this node would also require proper authentication, so a Google Docs credential, likely an OAuth2 one, would be selected here to allow n8n to access the document on Google's behalf.\n\nNow, let's consider the connection between these two nodes. The `Webhook` simply triggers the workflow. The `Google Docs` node doesn't really need any data *from* the webhook itself to perform its operation (it has its own URL configured). So, it's a straightforward main connection: the output of the `Webhook` node flows directly as the input to the `Google Docs` node. This simply ensures the `Google Docs` node executes immediately after the `Webhook` receives a request.\n\nFinally, the last part of the prompt is \"and respond with that content.\" Since our initial `Webhook` node was set to \"responseNode,\" we need a specific node to send the HTTP response back. The `Respond to Webhook` node is exactly what we need for this purpose. It's designed to take data from previous nodes and construct the final HTTP response that's sent back to the client that initiated the webhook.\n\nAdding the `Respond to Webhook` node, the JSON shows it's `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion: 1.1`. This version is perfectly fine for this task.\n\nFor its configuration, we need to send the content retrieved by the `Google Docs` node. When the `Google Docs` node successfully \"gets\" a document, it typically outputs the document's content in a specific field. Looking at the JSON, it's using `{{ $json.content }}` for the `responseBody`. This tells me that the `Google Docs` node places the actual text content of the document into a property named `content` within its output JSON. So, to ensure we send *only* that content, we'll use an expression for the `responseBody` parameter, pointing directly to that `content` property.\n\nSince we're sending back text content, setting the `respondWith` parameter to \"text\" is the most appropriate choice. This tells the node to send the response as plain text, suitable for displaying the document's content directly.\n\nThe connection for this last step is also simple: the output from the `Google Docs` node, which now contains the document's content, flows into the `Respond to Webhook` node. The `Respond to Webhook` node then picks up that content from the incoming data and uses it to formulate the HTTP response. This completes the loop, ensuring the user who triggered the webhook receives the Google Doc's content.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers all the functional requirements and how each node and its connections would be set up." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'My workflow 8' that starts with an 'n8n Form Trigger' node titled 'test' with a single field also named 'test', providing two sample items: 'First item' (code 1) and 'Second item' (code 2).

The prompt tells us we need a workflow named 'My workflow 8' that starts with a form, connects to a switch, and then remains inactive.\n\nFirst things first, I'll set up the basic workflow structure. The workflow needs a name, so I'll assign it \"My workflow 8\". And a key requirement is that it should be inactive right from the start, so I'll ensure the `active` property is set to `false`. This means it won't execute until someone manually activates it. There are also some standard settings like `executionOrder` which will default to `v1` and internal identifiers like `versionId`, `id`, and `meta.instanceId` that n8n generates, so I'll let those populate automatically.\n\nNow, for the core logic, starting with the trigger. The prompt specifies an 'n8n Form Trigger'. This is perfect for starting a workflow when a user submits data through a web form. It's a `n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger` node with `typeVersion: 2`. I'll add this as the very first node, as it's the entry point of the workflow.\n\nWhen configuring this form trigger, the prompt says it should be titled 'test'. So, in the node's `parameters`, I'll set `formTitle` to \"test\". It also needs a single field, also named 'test'. So under `formFields.values`, I'll add an object with `fieldLabel: \"test\"`. This means the form will have one input box where users can type in a value for 'test'.\n\nThe `path` parameter for the form trigger, which in the JSON is `d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a`, is an automatically generated unique identifier for the form's URL. This is what n8n uses to expose the form publicly. I don't need to specify it myself; n8n will handle that.\n\nA crucial part mentioned in the prompt is providing two sample items: 'First item' (code 1) and 'Second item' (code 2). This isn't a configuration *within* the node itself for what data it processes, but rather sample data that would be used when testing the workflow in the editor or for demonstrating expected output. This is typically found in the `pinData` section of the workflow JSON, where it shows `n8n Form Trigger` outputting two JSON items: `{\"name\": \"First item\", \"code\": 1}` and `{\"name\": \"Second item\", \"code\": 2}`. This means that if I were to test run this trigger, these are the items it would emit for subsequent nodes to process.\n\nNext, the prompt states that this trigger then connects to a 'Switch' node. So, I'll add a 'Switch' node. This node type, `n8n-nodes-base.switch` with `typeVersion: 2`, is ideal for routing workflow execution down different paths based on conditions. For instance, if the form data contained different values, we might want to process them differently.\n\nNow, to connect them: The 'n8n Form Trigger' should feed its output into the 'Switch' node. I'll make a `main` connection from the `n8n Form Trigger` to the `Switch` node. In the `connections` part of the JSON, this translates to `{\"n8n Form Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the primary output of the form trigger goes directly into the switch node.\n\nLooking at the 'Switch' node's `parameters` in the JSON, it's currently an empty object `{}`. This means the 'Switch' node isn't actually configured with any conditions or expressions. While it's connected, it won't perform any actual routing based on the input data until I define what it should switch *on* and what the different cases (outputs) should be. For a real-world scenario, I'd probably configure it to check the value of the 'test' field from the form and then route based on that. But for now, as per the JSON, it's an unconfigured placeholder.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow is named, the form trigger is set up to receive the 'test' field, with sample data defined, and it's connected to an unconfigured switch node. The entire workflow is set to inactive, just as requested." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Get Today' that is triggered by another workflow. It should use a Code node to output the current date in 'YYYY-MM-DD' format as `json.today`, and the workflow should be initially inactive.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get Today\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"inputSource\": \"passthrough\"}, \"name\": \"When Executed by Another Workflow\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [40, -180]}, {\"parameters\": {\"jsCode\": \"const date = new Date();\\n\\n\/\/ YYYY-MM-DD \\ud615\\uc2dd\\uc73c\\ub85c \\ubcc0\\ud658\\nconst year = date.getFullYear();\\nconst month = String(date.getMonth() + 1).padStart(2, '0');\\nconst day = String(date.getDate()).padStart(2, '0');\\nconst today = `${year}-${month}-${day}`;\\n\\nreturn [{\\n json: {\\n today,\\n }\\n}];\"}, \"name\": \"Set Today\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.code\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [260, -180]}], \"connections\": {\"When Executed by Another Workflow\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set Today\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The request is for a workflow named 'Get Today' that outputs the current date in a specific format and is initially inactive.\n\nFirst things first, I'd set up the workflow's core properties. The prompt states the name should be 'Get Today', so that's easy to configure right off the bat. And importantly, it needs to be \"initially inactive.\" So, I'll make sure the `active` flag for the workflow is set to `false`. This ensures it won't run automatically until someone explicitly activates it.\n\nNow, onto the actual logic. The prompt mentions it should be \"triggered by another workflow.\" This immediately tells me I need a specific type of trigger node. Looking through the available n8n triggers, the `Execute Workflow Trigger` node is perfect for this. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` specified in the JSON is `1.1`. This node is designed precisely for one workflow to call and execute another. It's a clean way to create reusable sub-workflows. I'll name it something clear, like \"When Executed by Another Workflow,\" to reflect its purpose. For its parameters, the `inputSource` is set to `passthrough`. This means any data passed into this workflow from the calling workflow will simply be passed through to the next node. In this specific case, we don't necessarily *need* input data for generating today's date, but it's a sensible default if you want the flexibility for the sub-workflow to potentially use calling data in the future.\n\nOnce this workflow is triggered, the next step is to actually get the current date and format it. The prompt specifically asks for a `Code` node to achieve this. A `Code` node is incredibly versatile because it allows you to write custom JavaScript to perform just about any data manipulation or logic you need. For this task, it's perfect because standard date formatting might not be a direct node option, or it might require multiple steps with other nodes. A single `Code` node can handle it elegantly.\n\nSo, I'll add a `Code` node, which has a `type` of `n8n-nodes-base.code` and a `typeVersion` of `1`. I'll connect its main input from the `When Executed by Another Workflow` node. This connection ensures that when the trigger fires, the `Code` node immediately executes.\n\nNow, for the JavaScript inside this `Code` node. The requirement is to output the current date in 'YYYY-MM-DD' format as `json.today`.\nI'll write the JavaScript as follows:\n```javascript\nconst date = new Date();\n\n\/\/ YYYY-MM-DD \\ud615\\uc2dd\\uc73c\\ub85c \\ubcc0\\ud658 (This comment is in Korean, meaning 'Convert to YYYY-MM-DD format')\nconst year = date.getFullYear();\nconst month = String(date.getMonth() + 1).padStart(2, '0');\nconst day = String(date.getDate()).padStart(2, '0');\nconst today = `${year}-${month}-${day}`;\n\nreturn [{\n json: {\n today,\n }\n}];\n```\nLet's break down this code:\n1. `const date = new Date();`: This line creates a new `Date` object, which automatically holds the current date and time.\n2. `const year = date.getFullYear();`: This extracts the full year (e.g., 2024).\n3. `const month = String(date.getMonth() + 1).padStart(2, '0');`: This is a bit trickier. `getMonth()` returns a 0-indexed month (0 for January, 11 for December), so I need to add 1. Then, `padStart(2, '0')` is crucial. It ensures that single-digit months (like 1 for January) are padded with a leading zero (e.g., '01'), fulfilling the 'MM' part of 'YYYY-MM-DD'.\n4. `const day = String(date.getDate()).padStart(2, '0');`: Similar to the month, `getDate()` returns the day of the month. `padStart(2, '0')` ensures single-digit days (like 5) become '05'.\n5. `const today = `${year}-${month}-${day}`;`: This uses a template literal to combine the year, month, and day into the desired 'YYYY-MM-DD' string format.\n6. `return [{ json: { today, } }];`: This is how an n8n Code node typically returns data. It returns an array of items. Each item can have a `json` property (for JSON data), a `binary` property, etc. By setting `json: { today, }`, I'm creating an output item where the JSON data contains a property named `today` whose value is the formatted date string. This directly satisfies the requirement for the output to be `json.today`.\n\nI'll name this `Code` node \"Set Today\" as it's responsible for calculating and setting the `today` variable. The connection from \"When Executed by Another Workflow\" to \"Set Today\" is a simple main connection, passing the execution flow.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow starts when called by another, calculates the date, and outputs it in the required format. The workflow is inactive, as requested. Seems complete." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named \"My workflow 8\". It should start with an \"n8n Form Trigger\" node, configured as a \"test\" form with a \"test\" field and pre-populated with example data including \"First item\" (code 1) and \"Second item\" (code 2), then connect this trigger node to a \"Switch\" node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow 8\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a\", \"formTitle\": \"test\", \"formFields\": {\"values\": [{\"fieldLabel\": \"test\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"n8n Form Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [620, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.switch\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [800, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"n8n Form Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt asks for an inactive workflow named \"My workflow 8,\" starting with an \"n8n Form Trigger\" and leading into a \"Switch\" node.\n\nMy first thought is always to start with the trigger, as that's how the workflow will begin executing. The prompt specifies an \"n8n Form Trigger,\" which is perfect for collecting data through a web form. This node will be of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 2`. I'll place this as the initial node in the workflow canvas. It's a fundamental trigger node, essential for scenarios where external input via a web form is required to kick off a process. Using `typeVersion: 2` indicates it's a relatively recent version of the node, likely offering stable and standard functionalities. If it were an older version, some parameters or behaviors might differ slightly, but for a form trigger, the core function usually remains consistent across versions.\n\nNow, I need to configure this \"n8n Form Trigger\" node. The prompt states it should be a \"test\" form with a \"test\" field. So, for the `parameters`, I'll set the `formTitle` to \"test.\" Within the `formFields`, I'll define a single input field with the `fieldLabel` \"test.\" The `path` parameter, which is \"d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a\" in the provided JSON, is crucial. This path forms part of the unique URL for the form, allowing users to access and submit data. The `webhookId` parameter also matches this path, ensuring the internal system correctly routes submissions to this specific workflow trigger. There are no special `options` specified, so I'll leave that empty, indicating default form behavior.\n\nA really useful feature for setting up and testing workflows that start with a trigger like this is the ability to pre-populate example data. The prompt mentions pre-populating with \"First item\" (code 1) and \"Second item\" (code 2). This is captured in the `pinData` section of the workflow JSON. While it's not a direct configuration *inside* the node's parameters, it's vital for my design process. I'd mentally load this sample data into the \"n8n Form Trigger\" node, so when I'm developing the subsequent nodes, I have actual data to work with, simulating what the form would submit. This allows me to build out the rest of the workflow without constantly having to submit the form manually.\n\nNext, the prompt says to connect this trigger node to a \"Switch\" node. A \"Switch\" node (`type: \"n8n-nodes-base.switch\"`, `typeVersion: 2`) is a logical choice here if the workflow intends to route execution paths based on conditions. For example, if the \"test\" field from the form might have different values that require different follow-up actions, a Switch node is perfect for creating those branching paths. In this initial setup, the `parameters` for the Switch node are empty. This is perfectly fine; it means the conditions for switching are not yet defined. Perhaps the user intends to add them later, or maybe the workflow is being built incrementally. My job as a designer is to place the node as requested, knowing that the specific logic (e.g., checking `{{ $json[\"test\"] }}` for different values) would be configured here when the routing requirements become clear. Again, `typeVersion: 2` suggests standard functionality. If this were an older version, the condition builder interface might look slightly different, but the core 'if-else' branching logic would remain.\n\nFinally, I need to establish the connection. The \"n8n Form Trigger\" should connect its `main` output to the `main` input of the \"Switch\" node. This ensures that whatever data is received by the form trigger, including our example data (\"First item\", \"Second item\"), will be passed directly as input to the Switch node. The Switch node will then receive this data and, once configured, evaluate it against its rules to determine which output branch to follow.\n\nAnd to top it all off, the prompt specifies the workflow should be inactive. So, I'll ensure the `active` property of the overall workflow is set to `false`. This means it won't execute automatically until explicitly activated, which is a good practice for workflows still under development." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and connects to a Shopify node configured to perform the 'getAll' operation using 'shopify_creds' credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [230, 310]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\"}, \"name\": \"Shopify\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.shopify\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [430, 310]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Shopify\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. My goal is to create an n8n workflow that starts manually and then talks to Shopify to pull some data.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick off this workflow. The prompt explicitly says \"starts with a manual trigger,\" and looking at the provided JSON, I see just the right node for that: `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. This is perfect because it allows a user to initiate the workflow directly from the n8n interface by simply clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button. It's a very straightforward starting point. I'll place this node on the canvas; its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the standard for this node, and it doesn't really require any specific `parameters` to function as a basic trigger, so an empty `parameters` object makes sense here. Its name, \"On clicking 'execute'\", is very descriptive of its purpose.\n\nNow, once the workflow is triggered manually, the next step is to interact with Shopify. The prompt specifies a \"Shopify node configured to perform the 'getAll' operation using 'shopify_creds' credentials.\" Looking at the JSON, I can see that the next node is indeed `n8n-nodes-base.shopify`. This is exactly what I need. This node is designed specifically for integrating with the Shopify API, making it the most suitable choice for anything related to Shopify, whether it's pulling data or creating new resources. Its `typeVersion` is also `1`.\n\nFor configuring this Shopify node, the JSON tells me a few important things. The `operation` is set to `\"getAll\"`. This is crucial; it means the node isn't going to create, update, or delete anything, but rather retrieve all records of a specific type from Shopify. Although the JSON doesn't specify *which* type of resource (like products, orders, or customers), the `getAll` operation is generic enough to apply to many resource types, and the node would typically have another field in its parameters to select that specific resource later, but for now, knowing it's `getAll` is key. The `options` are currently empty, meaning no additional filters or sorting parameters are being applied at this moment, keeping the operation broad.\n\nThe most critical part for the Shopify node to actually work is its `credentials`. The JSON indicates `{\"shopifyApi\": \"shopify_creds\"}`. This means that for the Shopify node to authenticate with the Shopify store, it will use a pre-configured credential entry named `shopify_creds`. This entry would contain all the necessary sensitive information, like the Shopify store URL, API key, and secret, allowing the workflow to securely connect to the Shopify account without embedding those values directly into the workflow itself. It's good practice to keep credentials separate like this.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The `connections` section in the JSON shows that the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node connects its `main` output to the \"Shopify\" node's `main` input. This is the standard flow for sequential execution. When the manual trigger fires, it sends a signal (and potentially a small amount of data, though for a manual trigger it's often just a basic item) to the Shopify node, telling it to start its operation. So, the manual trigger sets the whole process in motion, and then the Shopify node immediately executes its `getAll` operation. This completes the basic flow: trigger, then action." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON containing a manual trigger node connected to an n8n node.

The prompt clearly states we need a manual trigger connected to an n8n node, and there's a specific goal: managing a credential resource.\n\nMy first thought is always, \"How does this workflow get started?\" The prompt explicitly asks for a \"manual trigger node.\" This is quite straightforward. So, I'll begin by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. This node, with `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`, is perfect because it allows someone to initiate the workflow simply by clicking a button in the n8n interface, typically labeled \"Test workflow.\" It's great for development, testing, or workflows that need to be run on demand rather than on a schedule or in response to an external event. I'll place it at `[300, 240]` as specified in the layout, which feels like a good starting point on the left side of the canvas.\n\nNext, the prompt says this manual trigger needs to be \"connected to an n8n node.\" This immediately tells me what my second node will be. The **n8n node** itself (`type: n8n-nodes-base.n8n`, `typeVersion: 1`) is the designated tool for interacting with the n8n instance's own API. This is precisely what we need if we're going to \"manage a 'credential' resource.\" Managing resources like credentials, users, workflows, or executions within n8n itself is the primary function of this particular node type. I'll position this node to the right of the trigger, at `[540, 240]`, giving it enough visual space.\n\nNow, how do we configure this n8n node to manage a credential? Looking at its parameters, I see a `resource` field. For managing credentials, it's logical that this would be set to `\"credential\"`. This tells the n8n node what type of n8n internal resource it should be working with.\n\nThen, for the specific credential, the prompt mentions a `name` of `\"123\"` and a `credentialTypeName` of `\"123\"`. So, I'll set these parameters accordingly. The `name` would refer to the specific identifier given to this credential instance, and `credentialTypeName` would refer to the underlying type of credential, like \"API Key,\" \"OAuth2,\" or \"Webhook,\" even though here it's also \"123\". This configuration is crucial for the n8n node to know *which* credential it's supposed to manage and what its properties are.\n\nFor the n8n node to actually perform actions on the n8n instance, it needs authentication. The prompt states it should use an \"n8n account\" n8nApi credential with a specific ID. So, in the node's `credentials` section, I'll specify that it uses an `n8nApi` type credential. While I wouldn't include any actual sensitive values like an API key here, conceptually, this would be where we link the node to a pre-configured credential in n8n that has the necessary permissions to interact with the n8n API. It's identified by a unique ID and a human-readable name, in this case, \"10\" and \"n8n account\". This ensures the n8n node has the authority to manage credentials.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The manual trigger needs to activate the n8n node. So, the output of the \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\" node on its `main` output should connect to the `main` input of the \"n8n\" node. This `connections` block shows that when the manual trigger is activated, it will pass execution flow to the n8n node. There's no data being passed explicitly in this case; it's purely about triggering the next step in the workflow sequence.\n\nOne last detail, the prompt specifies an `instanceId` of \"123\" in the metadata. This is a top-level piece of information about the workflow itself, not a node parameter, found in the `meta` object. It's often used for tracking or identifying specific deployments of a workflow. So, I'll ensure `{\"meta\": {\"instanceId\": \"123\"}}` is at the root level of the workflow JSON.\n\nThat completes the setup based on the requirements. The manual trigger starts it, and the n8n node then attempts to manage the specified credential resource, authenticating via the configured n8n API credential." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Test workflow 2\" that starts with a manual trigger, connects to a code node which adds a field `myNewField` with value `1` to all input items.

I'll also immediately handle the global workflow settings: it needs to be inactive, so I'll toggle the \"Active\" switch off. And then, it needs specific tags: \"other-tag-1\" and \"other-tag-2.\" I'll make sure those are added to the workflow's metadata. That takes care of the high-level workflow properties.\n\nNow, onto the actual nodes. The prompt clearly states it \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This is straightforward.\n* **Node 1: Manual Trigger**\n * **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. This is the perfect choice for a workflow that needs to be initiated by a user clicking a button, rather than reacting to an external event or a schedule. It's the most direct way to kick off an ad-hoc execution.\n * **Type Version**: It's `typeVersion: 1`. For a simple trigger like this, I don't anticipate any significant behavioral changes with different versions; its core function is to simply start a workflow run, potentially with an initial empty item or default data.\n * **Configuration**: There are no specific parameters to configure for a basic manual trigger node. Its purpose is purely to act as the entry point when manually invoked. Its output is typically a single item, potentially empty, that then flows into the next node.\n\nNext, the prompt says the manual trigger \"connects to a code node which adds a field `myNewField` with value `1` to all input items.\" This immediately tells me my next node has to be a Code node.\n* **Connection**: First, I'll connect the `main` output of my \"On clicking 'execute'\" (Manual Trigger) node to the `main` input of the new \"Code\" node. This ensures that when the workflow runs, any data (even if it's just the default empty item from the trigger) is passed along to the code node for processing.\n* **Node 2: Code**\n * **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.code`. This is the ideal node type for custom data manipulation using JavaScript. If I just needed to add a static field without any logic, a \"Set\" node *could* work, but the prompt specifically mentions a \"code node,\" and a Code node provides ultimate flexibility for more complex transformations later on if needed.\n * **Type Version**: It's `typeVersion: 1`. This is the current and standard version. I'd expect its JavaScript execution environment to be consistent across various runs.\n * **Configuration**: Now, the crucial part for the Code node is its `jsCode` parameter. The requirement is to add `myNewField` with value `1` to *all* input items.\n * To achieve this, I need to iterate over every item that comes into the node. The best way to do that in n8n's Code node environment is `for (const item of $input.all())`. This reliably accesses all items.\n * Inside the loop, for each `item`, I need to access its `json` property, which holds the actual data, and then add the new field: `item.json.myNewField = 1;`. This directly modifies the item's data.\n * Finally, the Code node needs to return the processed items so they can be passed on to any subsequent nodes (though there are none specified in this workflow). `return $input.all();` is the correct way to return all the items, now with the `myNewField` added.\n\nAnd that's it. I've covered the name, activity status, tags, the starting trigger, the connection, and the specific logic within the code node. The workflow's structure and configuration match all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that manually triggers the creation of an iCalendar event for an 'n8n Community Meetup'.

This node, with its type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`, is specifically designed for situations where you want to initiate a workflow by clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n UI. It's simple, direct, and exactly what's needed for a manual start. I'll place this at the beginning of our workflow, as it's the entry point. It doesn't require any specific configuration, as its purpose is just to provide that manual kick-off signal.\n\nAlright, so we've got our trigger. What's next according to the prompt? It says we need to \"create an iCalendar event for an 'n8n Community Meetup'\". This immediately tells me I need a node that can generate iCalendar (`.ics`) files.\n\nLooking at the available nodes, the **iCalendar** node seems tailor-made for this. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.iCal` and it's also `typeVersion: 1`. I'll connect the `main` output of our \"On clicking 'execute'\" node directly to the `main` input of this \"iCalendar\" node. This ensures that as soon as the workflow is manually triggered, it proceeds to create the iCalendar event.\n\nNow, let's configure this iCalendar node. The prompt specifies it's for an \"n8n Community Meetup\". So, for the `title` parameter, I'll set it to \"n8n Community Meetup\". This will be the name of the event in the calendar.\n\nThe JSON also provides specific `start` and `end` times for the event: `2021-06-11T15:30:00.000Z` and `2021-06-11T16:15:00.000Z` respectively. These will define when the meetup begins and ends. I'll set these directly in the node's parameters. This ensures the event has precise timing. There are no `additionalFields` specified in the JSON, so I'll leave that empty, meaning we're just creating a basic event with a title and duration. This node will output the actual iCalendar data as its output.\n\nFinally, the prompt says to \"send an email with the subject 'n8n Community Meetup \ud83d\ude80' and a descriptive body, attaching the generated iCalendar file.\" This clearly points to an email sending node.\n\nThe **Send Email** node, of type `n8n-nodes-base.emailSend` and `typeVersion: 1`, is exactly what we need here. I'll connect the `main` output of our \"iCalendar\" node to the `main` input of this \"Send Email\" node. This ensures that the email sending step happens *after* the iCalendar file has been generated and that the iCalendar data is available to be used by this node.\n\nLet's configure the \"Send Email\" node.\nFirst, the `subject`: The prompt specifies \"n8n Community Meetup \ud83d\ude80\". I'll set this directly in the `subject` parameter.\nNext, the `text` for the email body. The JSON provides a specific, friendly message: \"Hey Harshil,\\n\\nWe are excited to invite you to the n8n community meetup!\\n\\nWith this email you will find the invite attached.\\n\\nLooking forward to seeing you at the meetup!\\n\\nCheers,\\nHarshil\". I'll paste this entire text into the `text` parameter. This makes the email descriptive and inviting.\n\nNow for the crucial part: attaching the iCalendar file. The `attachments` parameter in the JSON is set to \"data\". This is a very neat feature of n8n. It means that the output data from the *previous* node (which, in this case, is the raw iCalendar data generated by our \"iCalendar\" node) will be automatically attached to the email. The \"Send Email\" node understands this `data` keyword and will process the incoming data as an attachment. It will automatically give it a sensible filename, usually based on the node's output.\n\nFinally, to actually send the email, this node requires credentials. The JSON indicates `credentials: {\"smtp\": \"Outlook Burner Credentials\"}`. This means a configured SMTP credential, likely named \"Outlook Burner Credentials\" in the n8n environment, will be selected here to handle the actual sending via an SMTP server. Without specific details, I'll just note that a pre-configured SMTP credential resource would be selected here for authentication with an email service provider.\n\nAnd that completes the thought process for building this workflow. It flows logically from triggering, to creating the event data, to sending that data as an attachment in an email." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that begins with a 'Manual Trigger' node named 'On clicking execute', followed sequentially by two 'Set' nodes, named 'Set' and 'Set1' respectively.", "json": "{\"name\": \"ff739753-9d6e-46a7-94d3-25bd03dd4973\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down how I'd put this n8n workflow together, thinking through each piece as I go. The user wants a pretty straightforward sequential flow: a manual trigger followed by two 'Set' nodes.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to initiate the workflow. The prompt clearly states it should \"begin with a 'Manual Trigger' node named 'On clicking execute'\". So, that's my starting point.\n\n**Node 1: The Trigger**\n\n* **Node Type:** I'll go with the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` type. This is ideal because it means the workflow will only run when someone explicitly clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n interface, which perfectly aligns with the name \"On clicking execute\" requested in the prompt.\n* **Type Version:** I'll use `typeVersion: 1`. This is the standard and most stable version for this node type right now, and it doesn't have complex configurations that would typically vary across versions. For a simple trigger, it's perfect.\n* **Name:** The prompt specifies the name as \"On clicking 'execute'\". I'll set that directly.\n* **Parameters:** For a basic manual trigger, there aren't typically any specific parameters needed. It simply acts as a start signal. So, `parameters: {}` will suffice.\n* **Initial Setup:** I'll make sure this node is designated as the `start: true` node in the `pinData` to ensure n8n knows this is where the execution begins.\n\nNow that the trigger is in place, I need to think about what comes next. The prompt says it's \"followed sequentially by two 'Set' nodes\". So, the output from my \"On clicking 'execute'\" node needs to feed directly into the first 'Set' node.\n\n**Connection 1: Trigger to First Set Node**\n\n* I'll establish a `main` connection from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node. This means the data flow (or in this case, just the signal that the workflow has started) will pass directly to the next node.\n\n**Node 2: The First 'Set' Node**\n\n* **Node Type:** The prompt asks for a 'Set' node, so I'll pick `n8n-nodes-base.set`. This node type is incredibly versatile for manipulating data. It allows you to add, rename, or remove properties from the incoming JSON data.\n* **Type Version:** Again, `typeVersion: 1` is the standard and suitable choice. There aren't complex features in different versions of the Set node that would significantly change its basic pass-through or data manipulation capability in this context.\n* **Name:** The prompt specified the first 'Set' node should be named \"Set\". So, I'll set that accordingly.\n* **Parameters:** Looking at the JSON, it's configured with `parameters: {\"options\": {}}`. This indicates that, for now, this 'Set' node isn't actually *setting* any specific values or making any changes to the data. It's essentially acting as a pass-through, simply existing in the workflow as requested by the prompt. If I were designing this for a real use case where I needed to add initial data, say, a timestamp or a default status, I would configure those specific key-value pairs here. But for this requirement, an empty `options` object is correct.\n\nOkay, so I have the trigger and the first 'Set' node. The prompt also asks for a *second* 'Set' node, \"named 'Set1'\", and it should follow sequentially.\n\n**Connection 2: First Set Node to Second Set Node**\n\n* Similar to the previous connection, I'll create another `main` connection. The output from the first \"Set\" node will go directly into the second \"Set1\" node. This ensures the sequential flow.\n\n**Node 3: The Second 'Set' Node**\n\n* **Node Type:** Again, it's a 'Set' node, so `n8n-nodes-base.set` is the correct type.\n* **Type Version:** Sticking with `typeVersion: 1` for consistency and because it perfectly serves the purpose.\n* **Name:** The prompt explicitly names this one \"Set1\".\n* **Parameters:** Just like the previous 'Set' node, this one also has `parameters: {\"options\": {}}`. This means it's also not actively modifying or adding any data at this point. It's primarily there to fulfill the sequential requirement of the prompt. If this were a more complex workflow, I might use this 'Set' node to aggregate data, rename fields for a later node, or perhaps add a final status message before ending the workflow. But for now, it's a placeholder.\n\nAnd that completes the sequence described in the prompt. I've got the trigger, then the two set nodes, all connected sequentially as requested. The positions are laid out horizontally, which is a common and clean way to visualize a linear workflow in n8n." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Manual wait set\" that starts with a manual trigger. It should then connect to a \"Wait\" node configured for 2 seconds, which then connects to a \"Set\" node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Manual wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [900, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Manual\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1120, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Manual\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is quite clear about what we need to achieve: a simple sequence starting with a manual trigger, pausing, and then ending with a Set node. The workflow also needs a specific name.\n\nFirst things first, I'm thinking about the overall structure. A workflow in n8n always needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly says it \"starts with a manual trigger,\" so that's the absolute first node I'll reach for.\n\nI'd look for the **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and in this case, we're using `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect for testing or for workflows that aren't kicked off by an external event but rather by a user clicking a button. Since the prompt specifies \"manual trigger,\" this is the most direct and appropriate choice. There aren't any specific parameters to configure for a basic manual trigger; it just provides an initial item to start the workflow's execution. I'll name it \"Manual\" for clarity, which is often its default name anyway.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow \"should then connect to a 'Wait' node configured for 2 seconds.\" So, my mind immediately goes to a node that can introduce a delay. The **Wait** node is precisely designed for this purpose. I'll add this node and connect it directly from the \"Manual\" node's main output. The `Wait` node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.wait`, and we're again on `typeVersion: 1`. This node is crucial when you need to pause workflow execution for a set duration, perhaps waiting for an external system to process something or just to introduce a controlled delay before the next step.\n\nNow, for the configuration of the \"Wait\" node. The prompt specifies \"configured for 2 seconds.\" Looking at the `parameters` for the Wait node in the JSON, I see `{\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}`. This perfectly matches the requirement. I'd simply input `2` into the \"Amount\" field and select \"Seconds\" from the \"Unit\" dropdown. This tells the workflow to pause at this point for exactly two seconds before proceeding. If we were using a different version, say one that allowed dynamic wait times based on input data, the parameter structure might look a bit different, but for this basic delay, version 1 is perfectly capable.\n\nFinally, the prompt states, \"which then connects to a 'Set' node.\" So, after the wait, we need to process or manipulate data, even if it's just a placeholder action. The **Set** node is ideal for this. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and we're using `typeVersion: 1`. I'll connect the main output of the \"Wait\" node to the main input of this \"Set\" node. The \"Set\" node is incredibly versatile; it allows you to add new fields to the data passing through, modify existing ones, or even remove fields. In this particular instance, the `parameters` show `{\"options\": {}}`, meaning no specific fields are being set or modified. This indicates it's likely a final step, or a placeholder for future additions where we might want to define new data values or simply pass through the existing data without changes. It acts as a clear end to this specific sequence.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the core logic specified by the prompt. We've got our `Manual` trigger, connected to our `Wait` node for 2 seconds, which then flows into our `Set` node. The workflow name, \"Manual wait set,\" would be set at the workflow level to match the prompt's requirement. This seems like a complete, concise, and functional workflow based on the given instructions." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with an 'On clicking execute' manual trigger node. This trigger should connect to a 'Set' node, which then connects to a 'Set1' node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"ff739753-9d6e-46a7-94d3-25bd03dd4973\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow. The request is quite specific: a manual trigger, followed by a 'Set' node, then another 'Set' node.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need in any workflow that's going to be started manually by a user is, naturally, a manual trigger. Looking at the prompt, it explicitly asks for an \"On clicking execute\" manual trigger node. This is a very common starting point for workflows that aren't reactive to external events.\n\nI'll go ahead and add that. Based on the JSON, this node is identified by its `type`: `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion`: `1`. This node is perfect for when you want to initiate a workflow directly from the n8n editor or via a webhook that isn't event-driven, but rather a direct execution. Its main purpose is to simply provide a starting signal to the workflow when a user clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button or a similar trigger in the UI. For configuration, it looks like it just has `parameters: {}`, which is typical for a basic manual trigger \u2013 it doesn't need much setup beyond just existing to be clicked. Its position is set at `[600, 580]`, which seems like a good central starting point on the canvas. And importantly, the `pinData` clearly marks it with `{\"json\": {\"start\": true}}`, confirming it's the very first node in the execution path.\n\nNext, the prompt says this trigger \"should connect to a 'Set' node\". Alright, so after the workflow gets manually triggered, the data (or rather, the initial item generated by the trigger) needs to flow into a 'Set' node. A 'Set' node is incredibly useful in n8n; it allows you to manipulate the data that's flowing through the workflow. You can add new fields, modify existing ones, or even remove fields. It's like an intermediate step to prepare or enrich the data before it goes to subsequent nodes.\n\nSo, I'll add a 'Set' node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the standard 'Set' node. Its position is `[820, 580]`, which puts it directly to the right of the manual trigger, suggesting a clean left-to-right flow. Looking at its parameters, it has `parameters: {\"options\": {}}`. This means, at this specific point, no fields are actively being set or modified. It's a 'Set' node that's ready to be configured, but currently acts as a pass-through for the data. This might be a placeholder for future development, or perhaps it's just there to clearly separate logical sections of the workflow even if it's not setting anything *yet*.\n\nNow, for the connection between the 'On clicking execute' node and this 'Set' node. The JSON's `connections` section clarifies this: `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This confirms that the primary output (`main`) of the 'On clicking execute' node connects to the primary input (`main`) of the 'Set' node. This is the standard way to chain nodes sequentially in n8n, ensuring that whatever item the manual trigger produces (usually an empty item, or an item indicating the execution time) flows directly into the 'Set' node for potential processing.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that the 'Set' node \"then connects to a 'Set1' node.\" So, we need another 'Set' node. This is straightforward. It's a second 'Set' operation in sequence. Perhaps the intention here is to perform different data manipulations at different stages, or again, it might be a structural choice.\n\nI'll add this third node, which is another 'Set' node. Its `name` is \"Set1\", its `type` is also `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. Just like the first 'Set' node, its `parameters` are `{\"options\": {}}`, meaning it's also not actively setting any data at this moment. Its position is `[1040, 580]`, further to the right, maintaining that linear layout.\n\nThe connection for this one, as per the JSON, is `\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This means the output from the first 'Set' node feeds directly into the input of the 'Set1' node. So, any data that passes through the initial manual trigger, then the first 'Set' node (which currently just passes it through), will then arrive at this second 'Set1' node, ready for whatever data manipulation might be configured for it in the future. The flow is very clear: trigger -> Set -> Set1, all in a straight line, processing the data sequentially. This forms a very basic, but structurally sound, linear workflow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile Create Google Sheet template for lead generation\" that is triggered by a webhook.

Looking at the user's prompt, it specifically mentions being triggered by a webhook and returning the document content via that webhook.\n\nAlright, first things first, if this workflow needs to be triggered by an external system, I'm definitely going to need a Webhook node to kick things off. That's the standard entry point for receiving external requests in n8n.\nSo, I'd start by adding a **Webhook** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the `typeVersion` is `2`. This seems like the most logical starting point for any workflow that needs to be callable from the outside.\nFor its configuration, I'd want to set a `path`. This path defines the unique URL segment that the webhook will listen on. It's crucial for identifying *this specific* workflow's endpoint. In this case, the JSON shows `onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/CreateGoogleSheetTemplateForLeadGeneration`, which is a pretty descriptive path, making it clear what this webhook is for.\nThe `responseMode` is set to `responseNode`. This is important because it means the webhook won't just immediately close the connection. Instead, it will wait for a later node, like a \"Respond to Webhook\" node, to explicitly send a response back. This is exactly what we need, as we'll be fetching data *after* the initial trigger and then sending that data back. The `options` are empty, which is fine, no special settings needed there like HTTP methods or authentication at this stage, though you could add them if necessary. The `webhookId` is something n8n generates internally to identify this specific webhook instance, so I don't need to configure that directly.\n\nNow that we have the trigger, the next step is to actually get the content from the Google Doc. For that, an integration with Google Docs is necessary. n8n has a dedicated node for Google Docs, which is perfect.\nSo, the next node would be the **Google Docs** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion` is `2`. I'd connect the `Webhook` node's output directly to this `Google Docs` node. This means that once the webhook is triggered, the execution flow will immediately pass to the Google Docs node.\nIn terms of configuration for the Google Docs node, the `operation` needs to be set to `get`. This is because we want to *retrieve* the content of an existing document, not create one or update one.\nThen, crucially, we need to tell it *which* document to get. This is done via the `documentURL` parameter. A specific Google Doc URL would be entered here.\nFinally, this node will require `credentials` to authenticate with Google. It shows `googleDocsOAuth2Api`, meaning an OAuth2 credential for Google Docs would be linked here, allowing n8n to access the user's Google Drive and Docs. Without proper authentication, this node wouldn't be able to access the document. The Google Docs node will take the specified URL, authenticate, fetch the document's content, and then output that content, likely as part of its JSON data.\n\nOnce we have the document content, the final step, according to the prompt, is to send that content back to the original webhook caller. This is where the \"Respond to Webhook\" node comes in.\nSo, I'd add a **Respond to Webhook** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion` is `1.1`. This node is designed specifically for scenarios where an upstream Webhook node is in `responseNode` mode. I'd connect the `Google Docs` node's output to this `Respond to Webhook` node. This ensures that the document content retrieved by the Google Docs node is available for the response.\nFor its configuration, the `respondWith` parameter is set to `text`. This indicates that the response body should be treated as plain text, which is suitable if we're just sending back the raw document content.\nThe `responseBody` is the most critical part here. It uses an expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This is how n8n dynamically pulls data from previous nodes. It specifically tells the node to take the `content` property from the JSON output of the previous node \u2013 which would be the Google Docs node. So, whatever text content the Google Docs node extracts from the document, this \"Respond to Webhook\" node will pick it up and send it as the response body to the original caller. The `options` are empty, meaning no custom headers or status codes are specified, just a simple text response.\n\nAnd that completes the flow. Webhook receives the call, Google Docs fetches the file content, and Respond to Webhook sends that content back. It's a clean, linear flow for this specific requirement." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a webhook, then waits for 2 seconds, and finally passes the data to a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Webhook wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [940, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so first things first, the prompt asks for a workflow that starts with a webhook, then waits, and finally uses a Set node.

This is the standard Webhook node, perfect for receiving incoming HTTP requests. For its configuration, the JSON shows a `path` parameter. This `path` is essentially the unique endpoint URL that n8n generates for this specific webhook. When an external system sends a request to this URL, it triggers our workflow. The specific value here is a unique identifier, and it's essential for distinguishing this webhook from others. The `options` parameter is empty, which means we're not setting any specific HTTP method restrictions or authentication details for this particular webhook; it's just a basic listener.\n\nNow, once the webhook receives data, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"wait for 2 seconds.\" This immediately tells me we need a **Wait** node. This node is designed precisely for pausing workflow execution for a specified duration. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.wait` and `typeVersion` is `1`, which is what I'd expect. The connection here is simple: the `Webhook` node's main output should connect directly to the `Wait` node's main input. This ensures that any data received by the webhook is passed along to the wait step. Looking at the parameters for the Wait node, I see `amount` is set to `2` and `unit` is set to `seconds`. This perfectly matches the requirement of waiting for \"2 seconds.\" If the prompt had asked for minutes or hours, I would have adjusted the `unit` accordingly, but for seconds, this is spot on.\n\nFinally, after the wait period, the prompt states we need to \"pass the data to a Set node.\" So, naturally, the next node in our chain will be a **Set** node. The `Wait` node's main output will connect to the `Set` node's main input. The Set node is incredibly versatile; it allows you to add, modify, or remove data fields from the incoming items. In this specific case, the JSON shows its `type` as `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion` as `1`. Looking at its parameters, the `options` field is empty. This means that, in this particular configuration, the Set node isn't actually creating any new fields or modifying existing ones. It's effectively just receiving the data that came from the previous node (the webhook, after the wait) and passing it through. It acts as a kind of final processing or simply a placeholder for where further data manipulation might occur. For this simple prompt, it fulfills the requirement of \"passing the data to a Set node\" even if no specific data transformation is specified. It's a clean way to ensure the data has gone through the intended steps." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then executes another workflow. The manual trigger should be configured to output two example items, each demonstrating different data types under the keys `aaString`, `aaNumber`, `aaArray`, `aaObject`, and `aaAny`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"workflowId\": {}, \"workflowInputs\": {\"mappingMode\": \"defineBelow\", \"value\": {}, \"matchingColumns\": [], \"schema\": [], \"attemptToConvertTypes\": false, \"convertFieldsToString\": true}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [500, 240]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Execute Workflow\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning out this n8n workflow. The core requirement is a manual trigger that feeds into another workflow execution, with specific data types being output by the initial trigger.\n\nFirst, to kick things off manually, we'll need a trigger node. The prompt explicitly calls for a \"manual trigger\". So, the most fitting choice here is the **`manualTrigger`** node. This is perfect because it allows someone to explicitly start the workflow when they click a button, which aligns exactly with the \"manual trigger\" requirement. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This is a standard, robust way to initiate a workflow for testing or specific manual runs.\n\nNow, how do we get this `manualTrigger` node to output the specific data items as requested? The prompt states it needs to output \"two example items, each demonstrating different data types under the keys `aaString`, `aaNumber`, `aaArray`, `aaObject`, and `aaAny`.\" The `manualTrigger` node in n8n has a handy feature for this: you can pre-define the data it outputs when it's triggered manually. In the JSON, this is represented by the `pinData` property.\n\nSo, I'd configure the `manualTrigger` like this:\n* I'll set up `pinData` as an array, because we need two example items.\n* The first item will be an object. For `aaString`, I'll give it a string value like \"A String\". For `aaNumber`, a simple integer like `1`. For `aaArray`, I'll create an array with mixed types, maybe `[1, true, \"3\"]`, to really show variety. For `aaObject`, a simple object like `{\"aKey\": -1}`. And for `aaAny`, I can just put an empty object `{}` to demonstrate it can hold anything.\n* Then, for the second item, I'll provide another object, again with all the specified keys, but with different values to show two distinct examples. So `aaString` could be \"Another String\", `aaNumber` set to `2`, `aaArray` perhaps an empty array `[]` to show that too, `aaObject` could be `{\"aDifferentKey\": -1}`, and `aaAny` this time could be an empty array `[]`. This fully satisfies the requirement for the manual trigger's output.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow should \"then executes another workflow\". This immediately points me to the **`executeWorkflow`** node. This is the dedicated node in n8n for calling and running another workflow, either synchronously or asynchronously. The JSON shows its `type` as `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow` and `typeVersion` as `1.2`. This is the correct choice for this part of the requirement.\n\nNow, let's think about how to connect these two nodes and configure the `executeWorkflow` node.\n* The `manualTrigger` will connect its `main` output to the `main` input of the `executeWorkflow` node. This means that the two data items generated by the `manualTrigger` will flow directly into the `executeWorkflow` node.\n* For the `executeWorkflow` node's parameters, the most crucial one is `workflowId`. This is where you'd typically select *which* workflow to execute. In the provided JSON, it's an empty object (`{}`), meaning that the specific workflow ID isn't hardcoded in the workflow definition itself. In the n8n UI, you'd select it from a dropdown, pointing to an existing workflow.\n* Then there's `workflowInputs`. This is how data from the current workflow is passed as input to the executed child workflow. The JSON sets `mappingMode` to `\"defineBelow\"`. This usually means you're going to explicitly map fields, but the `value` is an empty object `{}`. This configuration implies that the *entire incoming item* from the `manualTrigger` node will be passed as input to the executed workflow without any specific transformations or field selections. So, each of the two items generated by the `manualTrigger` will become a separate input item for the child workflow.\n* There are also `attemptToConvertTypes` and `convertFieldsToString` within the `workflowInputs`. These are booleans. `attemptToConvertTypes` being `false` (default) means n8n won't try to guess and convert data types, which is generally good for explicit control. `convertFieldsToString` being `true` means that if any fields were to be explicitly mapped, they would be converted to strings before being passed, but since no specific fields are mapped (`value` is `{}`), this parameter's effect is minimal in this exact setup. However, it's good to be aware it's there for future adjustments if specific string conversions were needed.\n\nSo, in summary, the `manualTrigger` provides the starting point and the sample data, and that data flows directly into the `executeWorkflow` node, which will then use that data as input when it runs the unspecified child workflow. This structure is clean and directly addresses all parts of the user's prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow to send a message on Twake, triggered manually.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Send a message on Twake\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"content\": \"\", \"channelId\": \"\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Twake\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.twake\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [800, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Twake\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants to send a message on Twake, and they specifically want it to be triggered manually. This gives me a clear starting point.\n\nFirst off, I need a way to kick this whole process off. Since the requirement is a *manual* trigger, I'll definitely reach for the `Manual Trigger` node. It's the most straightforward choice for when someone needs to explicitly initiate the workflow execution. It just sits there, waiting for a user to click \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n UI.\n\nSo, I'd add the node with `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'll call it something clear like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's obvious what its purpose is. For this type of trigger, there aren't really any parameters to configure; it's just a button press, so its `parameters` object will be empty, just `{}`. This seems like a perfect fit for the initial step.\n\nNext up, what's the core action we need to perform? The goal is to \"send a message on Twake.\" This immediately tells me I'll need an integration with Twake. Looking through the available nodes, there's typically a dedicated node for popular services like Twake. And indeed, the JSON confirms this: a `Twake` node.\n\nSo, I'll add the `Twake` node. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.twake` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'll place it right after the manual trigger, visually, so it's clear it's the next step in the flow.\n\nNow, how do I connect these two? The `manualTrigger` node simply needs to pass its execution signal to the `Twake` node. There's no data being generated by the manual trigger that the Twake node *needs* to operate, just the instruction to run. So, a simple \"main\" connection from \"On clicking 'execute'\" to \"Twake\" will do the trick. The `connections` entry for \"On clicking 'execute'\" will specify that its `main` output connects to the `Twake` node, specifically its first input (index 0).\n\nWith the connection in place, I need to configure the `Twake` node itself. To send a message, it definitely needs some information.\nLooking at the `parameters` in the JSON, I see `content`, `channelId`, and `additionalFields`.\n\n* `content`: This is absolutely critical. This is where the actual message text that will be sent to Twake goes. For a basic setup, it might just be a static string like \"Hello from n8n!\", but it could also be an expression pulling data from a previous node if this were a more complex workflow. For now, it's empty in the JSON, indicating it's waiting for configuration.\n* `channelId`: This is also essential. Twake needs to know *where* to send the message. This `channelId` would typically be the unique identifier for the specific Twake channel or conversation where the message should appear. Just like `content`, this would need to be populated with the correct ID.\n* `additionalFields`: This is an interesting one. It's an empty object `{}` right now, but it's a common pattern in n8n nodes to provide `additionalFields` for more advanced or less frequently used options that the service's API might support. For example, if Twake allowed sending attachments, or formatting options not covered by `content`, those might go here. It's good that it's included, as it offers flexibility for future expansion without changing the core node structure. For this basic workflow, it will just remain empty.\n\nFinally, for the `Twake` node to actually interact with the Twake API, it needs authentication. That's where the `credentials` come in. The JSON shows `{\"twakeCloudApi\": \"\"}`. This means that a `Twake Cloud API` credential would need to be configured in n8n. This credential would contain the necessary API keys or tokens that authorize n8n to send messages on behalf of a Twake user or application. Without this, the node wouldn't be able to connect to Twake. Of course, I wouldn't specify any actual sensitive values here, just acknowledge that the appropriate credential needs to be selected and configured within n8n.\n\nThe workflow's `active` status is `false`, which is pretty standard when you're first building a workflow. You usually build it, test it, and then activate it when you're sure it's working as expected. `settings` is an empty object, indicating no special global workflow settings are applied, which is fine for a simple flow like this.\n\nSo, to summarize, the flow will literally be: someone clicks a button, which triggers the Twake node to execute, and the Twake node, using its configured content, channel ID, and credentials, sends the message. Simple and effective for the stated goal." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers daily at 9 AM, retrieves the current weather for Berlin, and sends a Gotify notification. The notification message should include the temperature and be titled 'Today's Weather Update'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 9}]}}, \"name\": \"Cron\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cron\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [490, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"cityName\": \"berlin\"}, \"name\": \"OpenWeatherMap\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [690, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"message\": \"=Hey!

For scheduled triggers like this, the \"Cron\" node is the go-to option in n8n. It's designed exactly for time-based scheduling. So, I'd start by dragging out a \"Cron\" node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.cron`, and we'll use `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how do we make it trigger daily at 9 AM? I'd go into the Cron node's parameters. There's usually a `triggerTimes` setting. Looking at the JSON, it's configured with `{\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 9}]}}`. This is perfect. By setting the `hour` to 9, it means the workflow will execute at 9 AM every day. I don't need to specify minutes or specific days of the week, as a simple hour setting implies daily execution at that hour.\n\nNext, once the workflow is triggered, what's the immediate action? The prompt says \"retrieves the current weather for Berlin\". To get weather data, n8n has dedicated nodes for common weather services. The \"OpenWeatherMap\" node is a standard choice for this, so I'd pick that. I'll connect the \"Cron\" node's main output to the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node's main input. This ensures that as soon as the Cron trigger fires, the weather retrieval process begins. The \"OpenWeatherMap\" node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap`, `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, let's configure this weather node. The prompt specifies \"for Berlin,\" so I need to tell the node which city to get data for. In the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node's parameters, there will be a `cityName` field, and I'd set that to `\"berlin\"`. Additionally, to actually connect to the OpenWeatherMap API and fetch data, this node requires authentication. The JSON indicates `{\"credentials\": {\"openWeatherMapApi\": \"owm\"}}`. This means I would have previously set up an OpenWeatherMap API credential within n8n, given a generic name like \"owm,\" which holds the actual API key. Without that, the node wouldn't be able to make the API call.\n\nFinally, after getting the weather data, the last step is to \"send a Gotify notification.\" This clearly calls for a \"Gotify\" node. So, I'll connect the main output of the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node to the main input of the \"Gotify\" node. The \"Gotify\" node will then receive all the weather data that the previous node fetched. The \"Gotify\" node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.gotify`, `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nConfiguring the \"Gotify\" node is where we use the information from the weather step. The prompt has two requirements for the notification: \"The notification message should include the temperature\" and \"be titled 'Today's Weather Update'.\"\n\nFor the message, I need to dynamically pull the temperature from the data that the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node produced. The JSON shows the message parameter configured as `\"=Hey! The temperature outside is {{$node[\\\"OpenWeatherMap\\\"].json[\\\"main\\\"][\\\"temp\\\"]}}\\u00b0C.\"`. This is an expression. It says, \"go to the data output by the 'OpenWeatherMap' node, find its `json` property, then within that, look for `main`, and finally, get the `temp` property.\" This path, `json.main.temp`, is a common structure for temperature data from the OpenWeatherMap API. The rest of the message, \"Hey! The temperature outside is ...\u00b0C.\", is static text that wraps around the dynamic temperature value, making it a friendly and informative message.\n\nFor the title, the prompt asks for \"Today's Weather Update.\" This is a static value, so in the Gotify node's `additionalFields` (or similar section for extra parameters), I'd set the `title` field to `\"Today's Weather Update\"`.\n\nAnd just like the OpenWeatherMap node, the Gotify node also needs credentials to send the notification to a specific Gotify server. The JSON includes `{\"credentials\": {\"gotifyApi\": \"gotify-credentials\"}}`. This implies that a Gotify API credential, perhaps named \"gotify-credentials,\" would be configured in n8n, containing the server URL and API token necessary to send the notification to the correct Gotify instance.\n\nThat completes the entire workflow. It's a simple, linear flow from scheduling to data retrieval to notification, leveraging each node for its specific purpose and passing the necessary data along the chain." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers a Google Drive node to download the file with ID '1dJEBaECGmua09YP7W6WCBu66icIq32yRadQpk' using the 'n8n-test-service-account' credential, then save the downloaded binary file to '\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileId\": \"1dJEBaECGmua09YP7W6WCBu66icIq32yRadQpk\", \"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"download\"}, \"name\": \"Google Drive\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDrive\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Google Drive\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Drive\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning out this n8n workflow. The request is quite specific: we need to manually kick off the process, grab a particular file from Google Drive, and then save it to a local path.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. Since the prompt specifies \"manually triggers,\" the most straightforward way to achieve this is with a trigger node that responds to a manual execution.\n\nSo, I'd begin by pulling in the **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it literally creates a button in the n8n editor that, when clicked, will start the workflow. It doesn't require any specific configuration; it's simply a a starting gun for our process. We'll place it right at the beginning, ready to send a signal to the next step.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the very next thing we need to do, according to the prompt, is to download a file from Google Drive. This immediately tells me we'll need a Google Drive integration node.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Google Drive** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDrive`, and it's also `typeVersion: 1`. This node is the workhorse for interacting with Google Drive, whether it's uploading, downloading, moving, or listing files. In our case, the specific operation is \"download.\" So, I'll configure its `operation` parameter to `download`.\n\nNow, for the \"what\" to download. The prompt provides a very specific file ID. This is crucial for the Google Drive node to know exactly which file to fetch. I'll input that unique identifier into the `fileId` parameter of the Google Drive node. This ensures we're targeting the correct document.\n\nAnd then there's the \"who\" part \u2013 how do we authenticate with Google Drive? The prompt mentions using a specific service account credential, 'n8n-test-service-account'. For the `credentials` field, I'd select the appropriate pre-configured Google API credentials that have access to that Google Drive account. This credential set provides the necessary authorization for the workflow to interact with Google Drive on behalf of the service account. The `options` parameter can remain empty as we don't have any special download requirements beyond the file ID itself.\n\nNow, we've got the file downloaded. The Google Drive node, when configured for download, will output the file's binary data. This is typically what we want when we're dealing with files that aren't plain text or JSON.\n\nThe final step in the prompt is to \"save the downloaded binary file to '\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf'.\" This tells me we need a node that can take that binary output from the Google Drive node and write it to a file on the local filesystem where n8n is running.\n\nSo, the perfect node for this is the **Write Binary File** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile`, and it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed to handle binary data and save it as a file.\n\nFor its configuration, it needs to know where to save the file and what to name it. The prompt is very clear about the path: `\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf`. So, I'll set the `fileName` parameter of the Write Binary File node to `\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf`. This means it will write whatever binary data it receives to that exact location and name.\n\nFinally, we connect these nodes. The flow of data and execution should be logical.\nFirst, the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (Manual Trigger) node will connect its main output to the \"Google Drive\" node's main input. This ensures that when the workflow starts, the Google Drive download operation is initiated.\nThen, the \"Google Drive\" node, once it successfully downloads the file and outputs its binary data, needs to pass that data to the \"Write Binary File\" node. So, the \"Google Drive\" node's main output will connect to the \"Write Binary File\" node's main input. This connection is critical because it's how the actual downloaded file content gets passed along to be saved.\n\nAnd that's it. We've got a clear path: trigger, download, save.

The prompt is quite clear about what needs to happen: a manual start, followed by a specific sequence of three HTTP requests.\n\nSo, first things first, how do we get this workflow to kick off when someone wants it to? The prompt explicitly mentions a \"manual trigger.\" For that, the most suitable node is always going to be a **Manual Trigger** node. This node, with `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`, is perfect because its sole purpose is to start a workflow on demand, usually by clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n UI. It doesn't need any complex configuration; it just waits for that manual input. So, I'll place that as the very first node. I'd typically name it something intuitive like \"On clicking 'execute'\", just so it's clear what it does.\n\nNext up, the prompt says \"followed by three sequential HTTP requests.\" The first one is a `GET` request to `https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users`. To make any kind of HTTP request in n8n, the **HTTP Request** node is the go-to choice. It's a versatile node that can handle various HTTP methods. So, I'll add an **HTTP Request** node, with `type: n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` and `typeVersion: 1`, right after the manual trigger. I'll connect the \"main\" output of the Manual Trigger node to the \"main\" input of this new HTTP Request node.\n\nNow, for configuring this first HTTP Request node. The prompt specifies a `GET` request, and `GET` is the default method for the HTTP Request node, so I don't need to explicitly set `requestMethod` here. The URL is crucial: `https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users`. So, I'll set the `url` parameter of this node to exactly that. No body parameters are needed for a simple GET request. That takes care of the first request.\n\nMoving on to the second request. It's a `POST` to the *same* URL (`https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users`) but with specific data: `name: Neo` and `job: Programmer`. Again, an **HTTP Request** node is what we need. It'll be the second HTTP Request node in our chain, so I'll put it downstream from the first one. I'll connect the \"main\" output of the first HTTP Request node to the \"main\" input of this new one to ensure sequential execution. This node will also be `type: n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` and `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nFor its configuration, the URL remains `https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users`. However, this time the `requestMethod` needs to be explicitly set to `POST`. For the body, the prompt gives us `name: Neo` and `job: Programmer`. The HTTP Request node has a `bodyParametersUi` section where you can add key-value pairs for the request body. So, I'll add two parameters there: one with `name` as the key and `Neo` as the value, and another with `job` as the key and `Programmer` as the value. This will construct the JSON payload required for the POST request.\n\nFinally, the third request: a `PATCH` to `https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users\/2` with `job: The Chosen One`. Yet another **HTTP Request** node it is! This one will follow our POST request. I'll connect the \"main\" output of the POST request node to the \"main\" input of this new HTTP Request node. It's the same node type (`type: n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`, `typeVersion: 1`).\n\nLet's configure this last one. The URL is different this time: `https:\/\/reqres.in\/api\/users\/2`. This specifies that we're targeting a particular user, likely with ID 2. The `requestMethod` must be set to `PATCH`. And for the body, we just need `job: The Chosen One`. So, similar to the POST, I'll use the `bodyParametersUi` to add a single parameter with `job` as the key and `The Chosen One` as the value.\n\nAnd that completes the sequence. We have the manual trigger to start, and then three distinct HTTP Request nodes, each configured for its specific method, URL, and body, all connected sequentially to ensure they run in the correct order. This design perfectly matches the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an N8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, reads the binary file `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv`, and then passes the data to a Spreadsheet File node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"filePath\": \"\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv\"}, \"name\": \"Read Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 320]}], \"connections\": {\"Read Binary File\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Read Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants something that kicks off manually, reads a specific CSV file, and then hands that data over to a spreadsheet processing node. This sounds pretty straightforward, so I'll start by breaking it down into these key steps.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger.\" So, the most natural choice here is the `manualTrigger` node. It's purpose-built for scenarios where you want to execute the workflow with a simple click. I'll drop that onto the canvas as the very first node. It's `typeVersion: 1`, which is the standard for this basic trigger node. It doesn't need any special parameters configured; its job is simply to initiate the flow when someone hits the 'execute' button. I'll name it something intuitive, like \"On clicking 'execute'\".\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step in the prompt is to \"read the binary file `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv`.\" To do that, I'll need a node that can interact with the file system and fetch file contents. The `readBinaryFile` node is precisely what's needed here. It's designed to take a file path and output the file's content as binary data. This node should logically follow the trigger, so I'll connect the `manualTrigger`'s main output to the `readBinaryFile` node's main input. Its `typeVersion` is also `1`, indicating a standard implementation. For its configuration, the crucial part is setting the `filePath` parameter. The prompt gives us the exact path: `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv`. So, I'll configure that precisely. This node will then produce the binary representation of our CSV file.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"and then passes the data to a Spreadsheet File node.\" This is where the data we just read gets processed in a spreadsheet-aware way. The `spreadsheetFile` node is the perfect fit for this. It can handle various spreadsheet operations, and importantly, it can often interpret binary data (like our CSV content) as a spreadsheet. So, the output from the `readBinaryFile` node, which is the binary data of the CSV, needs to be fed directly into the `spreadsheetFile` node. I'll connect the `readBinaryFile`'s main output to the `spreadsheetFile`'s main input. Looking at its configuration, it has `options: {}`, which suggests that for this specific workflow, it's not being asked to perform a very specific operation within itself, like writing to a *new* file or performing a complex transformation, but rather it's set up to receive the incoming spreadsheet data, likely for subsequent steps not detailed in this particular prompt, or simply to make the data available for the next node in a structured spreadsheet format. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the usual version for this node.\n\nSo, to recap the flow:\n1. **Manual Trigger** starts everything.\n2. **Read Binary File** node, triggered by the first node, reads the specified `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv` file.\n3. The binary content from the `Read Binary File` node is then passed directly into the **Spreadsheet File** node, making the CSV data available for further spreadsheet-specific processing.\n\nThis setup perfectly matches the requirements of the prompt and provides a clean, logical flow of data from trigger to file processing." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger node.

The prompt gives me a clear starting point and defines the components I need to include, as well as how they should interact and be configured.\n\nMy goal is to create a workflow that begins with a manual trigger and then connects to an \"Execute Workflow\" node, with specific data being generated by the trigger.\n\n**Step 1: Setting up the Workflow's Entry Point - The Manual Trigger Node**\n\nEvery workflow needs a way to start. The prompt explicitly states, \"Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger node.\" This is a straightforward choice.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nWhy `manualTrigger`? This node is perfect for when I want to initiate a workflow directly, usually by clicking a button in the n8n editor. It's incredibly useful for testing during development or for workflows that aren't event-driven but need to be run on demand. Its name, \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" in the JSON, clearly indicates its purpose.\n\nNow, the prompt has a very specific requirement for this manual trigger: it needs to \"include two sample data items, each containing fields for string, number, array, object, and a general 'any' type.\" This means I need to pre-configure the data that this node will output when it's triggered. In n8n, this is done using the `pinData` property of the `manualTrigger` node.\n\nI'll configure `pinData` to be an array of two objects, representing the two sample data items.\n\nFor the *first* data item:\n* I'll include `aaString` with a value like `\"A String\"`. This covers the string type.\n* For `aaNumber`, a simple integer like `1` works perfectly for the number type.\n* For `aaArray`, I'll create an array with mixed types: `[1, true, \"3\"]`. This demonstrates the flexibility of arrays.\n* `aaObject` will be a basic JSON object, for example, `{\"aKey\": -1}`.\n* And finally, `aaAny` for the 'any' type. I'll make this an empty object `{}`. This shows that the 'any' type can indeed hold an object.\n\nFor the *second* data item:\n* To distinguish it, `aaString` will be `\"Another String\"`.\n* `aaNumber` will be `2`.\n* For `aaArray`, I'll show an empty array `[]` to illustrate that arrays can also be empty.\n* `aaObject` will be `{\"aDifferentKey\": -1}`, a slightly different object structure.\n* And for `aaAny` in this item, I'll use an empty array `[]`. This further emphasizes that 'any' can truly be any data type, as it's an array here, whereas in the first item, it was an object.\n\nThe field names like `aaString`, `aaNumber`, etc., are arbitrary but are clear and descriptive, making it easy to understand the data's structure.\n\n**Step 2: Connecting to the \"Execute Workflow\" Node**\n\nThe prompt specifies that the manual trigger \"should be connected to an 'Execute Workflow' node.\"\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow`\n* **Type Version:** `1.2`\n\nWhy `executeWorkflow`? This node is used when you want to call or trigger another n8n workflow from within the current workflow. It's excellent for creating modular workflows, where complex logic might reside in a separate, reusable workflow. It helps keep the main workflow clean and focused.\n\nNow, the prompt has very specific instructions for configuring this node: \"The 'Execute Workflow' node should not have a specific workflow ID or inputs configured.\"\n\n* **`workflowId`**: Looking at the JSON, `workflowId` is an empty object `{}`. This directly fulfills the requirement of \"not having a specific workflow ID.\" In a real-world scenario, I would place the ID of the sub-workflow to be called here. For this exercise, it remains unconfigured.\n* **`workflowInputs`**: Similarly, `workflowInputs` is set with `mappingMode: \"defineBelow\"` but its `value` is an empty object `{}`. This explicitly states that no inputs are being provided to the sub-workflow from *this* node. The `attemptToConvertTypes` and `convertFieldsToString` parameters are also set, but since no actual input mapping is defined, they don't have an immediate effect on data transformation in this specific configuration. This perfectly adheres to the prompt's instruction of \"no inputs configured.\"\n\n**Step 3: Defining the Connections**\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The output of the `manualTrigger` node (the two sample data items) needs to flow into the `executeWorkflow` node.\n\nIn n8n, this is represented by a `main` connection. The `manualTrigger` node named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" has its `main` output connected to the `Execute Workflow` node's `main` input. This means that when the manual trigger is activated, the two data items it generates will be passed sequentially to the `Execute Workflow` node, which would then, if configured with a workflow ID, attempt to trigger that sub-workflow for each incoming item.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow design as per the prompt's specifications." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that begins with a manual trigger, downloads the Google Drive file '1dJEBaECGmua09YP7W6WCBu66icIq32yRadQpk' using a service account credential, and saves it as a binary file to `\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileId\": \"1dJEBaECGmua09YP7W6WCBu66icIq32yRadQpk\", \"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"download\"}, \"name\": \"Google Drive\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDrive\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Google Drive\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Drive\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The request is pretty clear: we need to manually kick things off, grab a specific file from Google Drive using a service account, and then save it locally as a binary file.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. Since the prompt specifies \"begins with a manual trigger,\" that's an easy decision. I'll add a **Manual Trigger** node. This is a `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. It's perfect because it lets us initiate the workflow with a simple click whenever we need to run it. No complex scheduling or external events involved, just a direct command to start. It doesn't really need any specific configuration parameters, so we'll leave its `parameters` as an empty object. Its name \"On clicking 'execute'\" is pretty descriptive, telling anyone looking at the workflow exactly what it does.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next logical step is to actually get the file from Google Drive. For that, we'll need a **Google Drive** node. This is a `n8n-nodes-base.googleDrive` node, again `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed for all sorts of interactions with Google Drive, and downloading a file is one of its primary functions. So, I'll drag that onto the canvas and connect it directly from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's `main` output to the Google Drive node's `main` input. This ensures that as soon as the workflow is manually triggered, the Google Drive operation will commence.\n\nConfiguring this Google Drive node is crucial. The prompt states we need to \"download the Google Drive file '1dJEBaECGmua09YP7W6WCBu66icIq32yRadQpk'\". So, under its parameters, I'll set the `operation` to \"download\". This is key \u2013 it tells the node exactly what action to perform. Then, for the `fileId`, I'll input the specific ID provided in the prompt: \"1dJEBaECGmua09YP7W6WCBu66icIq32yRadQpk\". This ensures we're targeting the correct file. The prompt also mentions \"using a service account credential.\" This means that in the credentials section for this node, we'll need to select a pre-configured Google API service account credential, which in this case is identified as \"n8n-test-service-account\". This credential handles the authentication with Google Drive, allowing the workflow to access the file without needing manual user intervention. We don't need any special `options` for the download, so that can remain empty.\n\nFinally, once we've downloaded the file from Google Drive, we need to save it. The prompt specifies \"saves it as a binary file to `\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf`.\" This clearly points to using a **Write Binary File** node. This is a `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile` node, with `typeVersion: 1`. It's the perfect choice because the output of the Google Drive download operation is typically binary data, and this node is designed to take that binary data and write it to a specified file path.\n\nI'll connect the \"Google Drive\" node's `main` output to the \"Write Binary File\" node's `main` input. This connection is vital because it ensures that the binary content of the file that was just downloaded by the Google Drive node is passed directly to the Write Binary File node. For its parameters, the `fileName` is explicitly given as \"\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf\". So, I'll just set that parameter directly. This node doesn't require any other special configuration.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it! The manual trigger starts it, the Google Drive node fetches the specific file using the service account, and then the Write Binary File node takes that downloaded data and saves it to the designated path. Looks like a solid, straightforward workflow for the given task." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, retrieves all customer data from the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node and then passes it to an \"Edit Fields\" node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"NDV search bugs (introduced by schema view?)\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [800, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}, \"name\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1020, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": []}, \"includeOtherFields\": true, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [1240, 380]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow based on the user's request and the provided JSON.\n\nThe first thing I need to establish is how this workflow will be initiated. The prompt says \"when manually triggered,\" so I'll need a trigger node that responds to a manual action. Looking at the JSON, I see a node named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" with the `type` `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion` 1. This is perfect. It's designed to start an execution whenever someone clicks \"Test workflow\" or \"Execute workflow\" in the n8n UI. Its `parameters` are empty, which is exactly what you'd expect for a basic manual trigger \u2013 it simply sends a single item to kick things off. This will be our starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt requires us to \"retrieve all customer data from the 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node.\" So, after our manual trigger, we'll need a node that can interact with this specific data source. Following the connection from the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node in the `connections` object, I see it connects to a node named \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\". Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` and `typeVersion` is 1. This name matches the requirement perfectly, indicating it's the correct node for accessing that customer data.\n\nNow, I need to make sure this \"Customer Datastore\" node is configured to get *all* the customer data, as specified. Looking at its `parameters`, I see `{\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}`. This `getAllPeople` operation explicitly tells the node to retrieve every single customer record available in the datastore, which aligns exactly with the \"retrieve all customer data\" part of the prompt. The connection from the manual trigger means this data retrieval will happen right after the workflow is manually started. Based on the `pinData`, I can anticipate that this node will output a collection of customer records, each appearing as a separate item with fields like `id`, `name`, `email`, `notes`, `country`, and `created`.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that the retrieved data should \"then pass it to an 'Edit Fields' node.\" So, the node after our \"Customer Datastore\" node needs to be capable of handling and potentially modifying these fields. Checking the `connections` again, I see that the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node connects to a node named \"Edit Fields\". Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion` is 3.4. The `set` node is a very common and versatile node in n8n for manipulating data fields \u2013 adding, renaming, removing, or setting values. So, naming it \"Edit Fields\" for a `set` node makes a lot of sense here.\n\nLet's look at the \"Edit Fields\" node's `parameters`. It has `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": []}, \"includeOtherFields\": true, \"options\": {}}`. The `assignments` array being empty `[]` means we're not explicitly adding any new fields or changing existing ones to a *fixed* value at this point. However, the crucial parameter here is `\"includeOtherFields\": true`. This ensures that all the existing fields (like `id`, `name`, `email`, etc., that came from the \"Customer Datastore\") are passed through this node without being dropped. This configuration means the \"Edit Fields\" node acts as a passthrough for the data, effectively taking all the retrieved customer records and making them available for any subsequent nodes in the workflow, fulfilling the \"passes it to\" requirement without any immediate modification. And that completes the requested workflow structure." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then sends an email via AWS SES.

The core requirements are pretty clear: it needs to start when someone manually kicks it off, and then it has to send an email using AWS SES with some very specific content.\n\nRight, so the very first thing that comes to mind when I think about a workflow that a user needs to initiate themselves is a manual trigger. It's the most straightforward way to get things going without waiting for an external event or a schedule.\n\nLooking at the JSON provided, the first node confirms this thought: it's a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is absolutely the correct starting point. Its name is simply \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is descriptive of what it does. This node doesn't really need any parameters; its sole purpose is to provide an input signal to the next node when someone clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n UI. I'd typically place this on the far left of my canvas, perhaps around `[250, 300]` as indicated in the JSON, which gives good space for the next steps. It's a foundational node for any workflow that isn't event-driven or time-based.\n\nOnce the workflow is manually triggered, the very next step, according to the prompt, is to send an email via AWS SES. So, my mind immediately jumps to an email sending node, specifically one that integrates with AWS SES. n8n has a dedicated node for that, which is super convenient.\n\nLooking at the JSON, the next node is indeed `n8n-nodes-base.awsSes`, with a `typeVersion` of `1`. This is precisely what's needed. I'd want to place this node logically to the right of the manual trigger, probably around `[450, 300]`, to maintain a clear left-to-right flow.\n\nNow, for configuring this AWS SES node, I need to make sure all the email details from the prompt are accurately captured.\nFirst, the email's content:\n* The `subject` is specified as \"n8n Rocks\". So, in the node's parameters, I'd set the 'Subject' field to \"n8n Rocks\".\n* The `body` is \"This is a sample message body in an email\". I'd put this exact text into the 'Body' field. It looks like the JSON has an extra newline character `\\n` at the end of the body, which is fine; it just means there'll be a small line break after the message content, which typically doesn't affect rendering too much in most email clients.\n\nNext, the sender and recipients:\n* The email should be `from 'n8n@n8n.io'`. This goes directly into the 'From Email' parameter.\n* It needs to be `sent to 'user@example.com' and 'user2@example.com'`. The `awsSes` node handles multiple recipients beautifully, so I'd add both `user@example.com` and `user2@example.com` to the 'To Addresses' array.\n\nLooking at the `additionalFields` parameter, it's an empty object, `{}`. This tells me that for this particular email, we don't need to specify any extra headers, reply-to addresses, or special configuration that AWS SES might offer beyond the basics. This keeps the setup clean and focused on the primary requirements.\n\nFinally, the `credentials`. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"aws\": \"aws\"}`. This is crucial. For this node to actually connect to and use AWS SES, it needs a set of AWS credentials configured in n8n. These would typically be an access key ID and a secret access key, often tied to an IAM user with permissions to send emails via SES. I'm just making sure the node is set up to use a pre-existing AWS credential entry named \"aws\", which is good practice for separating sensitive information from the workflow definition itself.\n\nThe connection between these two nodes is straightforward: the 'main' output of the `manualTrigger` node connects to the 'main' input of the `awsSes` node. This means that once the manual trigger fires, it will pass a simple item (or just signal execution) to the AWS SES node, telling it to proceed with sending the email. It's a simple, linear flow, perfectly suited for this 'do X then do Y' type of task. No complex data mapping is required between these specific nodes since the AWS SES node's parameters are all static values derived directly from the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow titled 'A workflow with the Twilio node' which starts with a manual trigger connected to a Twilio node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"A workflow with the Twilio node\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Twilio\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.twilio\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [430, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Twilio\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow. The goal here is pretty clear from the user's prompt: we need a workflow titled \"A workflow with the Twilio node\" that begins with a manual trigger and connects directly to a Twilio node.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick it off. Looking at the requirements, a manual trigger is specified. This is perfect for testing or when someone wants to initiate the workflow directly from the n8n interface without waiting for an external event. So, the very first node I'd place on the canvas would be a manual trigger.\n\nBased on the JSON, this node is named \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is a descriptive default name for a manual trigger. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This type of node is designed specifically for user-initiated executions, acting as a simple button press. I don't see any special parameters configured for it in the JSON, which is typical for a basic manual trigger; it simply fires when activated. A version `1` indicates it's the initial stable release of this specific node type. If there were later versions, they might introduce new features or slightly alter behavior, but for a basic trigger, version 1 works perfectly.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt explicitly states it should be \"connected to a Twilio node.\" This means the output of our manual trigger needs to feed directly into a Twilio node. So, the next node to add would be the Twilio node itself.\n\nI'd drag and drop a Twilio node onto the canvas. Its name in the JSON is simply \"Twilio,\" which is straightforward. The `type` for this node is `n8n-nodes-base.twilio`, and its `typeVersion` is also `1`. This node is absolutely essential for interacting with the Twilio API, whether it's for sending SMS messages, making calls, or other Twilio-related operations. It acts as our gateway to those services.\n\nWhen it comes to configuring the Twilio node, the JSON shows empty `parameters` and an empty `twilioApi` within `credentials`. This tells me that for a real-world use case, this is where the specific Twilio operation (like \"send SMS\" or \"make call\") would be chosen, and the necessary details for that operation (like recipient phone numbers, message body, or call details) would be provided in the `parameters`. Crucially, for the node to function, it would also require valid Twilio API credentials, such as an Account SID and Auth Token, which would be linked or configured under the `credentials.twilioApi` section. I'd ensure that a generic Twilio API credential setup is ready to be linked here once the workflow is built, allowing it to authenticate with Twilio. The empty string for `twilioApi` just means no credential has been selected yet.\n\nWith both nodes in place, the final step is to connect them. The JSON clearly specifies the connection: `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Twilio\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the `main` output of our \"On clicking 'execute'\" manual trigger node connects directly to the `main` input of the \"Twilio\" node. This connection ensures that when the manual trigger is executed, the workflow's execution flow, along with any initial data (which for a manual trigger is usually just an empty item or a simple timestamp), passes directly to the Twilio node, initiating its operation. It's a straightforward, linear flow from trigger to action.\n\nFinally, looking at the workflow's overall settings, the JSON indicates `{\"active\": false}`. This means that once built, the workflow won't automatically run in the background. It will need to be explicitly activated before it can be executed, whether manually or by future triggers. This is a common default for new workflows, allowing for setup and testing before deployment. There are no other specific global `settings` defined for the workflow in the JSON, indicating a very basic setup." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Get Weather' that starts with a trigger node. It then uses an 'Edit Fields' (Set) node to create a new field called 'response' with the static string value 'Weather is sunny'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get Weather\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [560, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"Weather is sunny\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, 340]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this \"Get Weather\" workflow designed. The first thing I always do is think about the overall goal and the name. The user prompt clearly states \"Generate an n8n workflow named 'Get Weather'\". So, that's the very first step in the editor: setting the workflow's name to \"Get Weather\". Easy enough.\n\nNow, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt specifically says it \"starts with a trigger node.\" When I look at the provided JSON, I see `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` (with `typeVersion: 1`). This is a very common and versatile trigger. It's great for workflows that you might want to manually execute, or perhaps trigger from another workflow programmatically. It's simple and doesn't require any complex setup parameters, which aligns with the `{}` for its `parameters` in the JSON. So, I'd drag that `Execute Workflow Trigger` node onto the canvas. Its name will naturally be \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", as seen in the JSON. This node just sits there, ready to kick things off whenever it's told to run.\n\nNext up, the prompt tells me what comes after the trigger: \"It then uses an 'Edit Fields' (Set) node to create a new field called 'response' with the static string value 'Weather is sunny'.\" Looking at the JSON, I see a node of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` (with `typeVersion: 3.4`). The `Set` node, often presented as \"Edit Fields\" in the UI, is absolutely perfect for this task. Its primary purpose is to manipulate data by adding, renaming, or modifying fields on the items that pass through it. Since we need to *create* a new field with a static value, the `Set` node is exactly what we need.\n\nSo, I'd drag a `Set` node onto the canvas. Its name, according to the JSON, should be \"Edit Fields.\"\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The `Edit Fields` node needs to receive the initial item that the `Execute Workflow Trigger` sends. So, I'd draw a connection from the output of the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node to the input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This creates a clear flow: trigger first, then modify the data. The JSON confirms this connection: `\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This ensures the execution flows correctly from one to the next.\n\nFinally, I need to configure the \"Edit Fields\" node. The prompt is very specific: \"create a new field called 'response' with the static string value 'Weather is sunny'.\"\nIn the configuration panel for the \"Edit Fields\" (Set) node, I'd look for the \"Values to Set\" or \"Assignments\" section. The JSON provides the exact parameters: `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"...\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"Weather is sunny\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}}`.\nThis means:\n1. I'd add a new assignment (or \"value to set\").\n2. For the \"Name\" of this new field, I would type in `response`.\n3. For the \"Value\" of this new field, I would type in the static string `Weather is sunny`.\n4. And importantly, I'd ensure the `Type` is set to `string`, which it is in the JSON.\n\nThere are no other special options or dynamic values required here, which is why the `options: {}` part is empty. It's a simple, direct assignment of a static string.\n\nThat's it. The workflow is named, it starts with the specified trigger, and it correctly uses and configures the `Set` node to add the `response` field with the desired static weather message. It's a very straightforward and clear workflow for this specific task." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFileVocabulary\" that triggers via a webhook. It should read the content from the Google Doc at `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1kizIBcUwfvWyyrIGqXLbuiMvdWLarCFXHcVpCRgx-Bs\/edit` and then respond to the webhook with the extracted document content.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFileVocabulary\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"b738c824-4044-4704-8053-bc0f39b2ae77\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1kizIBcUwfvWyyrIGqXLbuiMvdWLarCFXHcVpCRgx-Bs\/edit\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so I need to build a workflow that listens for a webhook, fetches content from a Google Doc, and then sends that content back as the webhook response. Let's think this through from the beginning.\n\nThe very first thing I'll need is a way to trigger the workflow. The prompt explicitly says it should \"trigger via a webhook.\" So, naturally, the first node has to be a **Webhook** node. This is a fundamental starting point for any workflow that needs to be initiated externally by an HTTP request.\n\nI'll choose the `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, with `typeVersion: 2`. This version is robust and commonly used for receiving incoming HTTP requests. I'd configure it to listen on a specific, generated path. For the response mode, the prompt implies we'll be responding *to* the webhook with data *after* processing, so I'll set its response mode to \"Respond to Webhook Node\" (`responseMode: \"responseNode\"`), meaning another node later in the workflow will handle the actual HTTP response. This allows us to perform actions between the trigger and the response.\n\nNext, after the webhook receives the request, the core task is to \"read the content from the Google Doc.\" For that, I'll need a node that can interact with Google Docs. The obvious choice here is the **Google Docs** node. It's specifically designed for operations like reading or writing to Google Docs.\n\nSo, I'll connect the `Webhook` node's \"main\" output to the `Google Docs` node's \"main\" input. This ensures that once the webhook is triggered, the execution flow passes directly to the Google Docs operation.\n\nLooking at the `Google Docs` node, it's `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion: 2`. This version should provide all the necessary functionalities for reading documents. I'll need to configure it for the right operation. The goal is to *read* content, so the operation will be \"Get\" (`operation: \"get\"`). Then, I'll specify the document from which to read the content. There would be a field where a specific Google Doc URL would be configured. Of course, interacting with Google Docs will require authentication, so I'll make sure to have appropriate Google Docs OAuth2 API credentials set up and linked to this node. Without credentials, it wouldn't be able to access the document.\n\nNow, I have the content from the Google Doc. The final step is to \"respond to the webhook with the extracted document content.\" This means I need a node that can take the data processed by the `Google Docs` node and send it back as the HTTP response to the original webhook call. The **Respond to Webhook** node is perfectly suited for this.\n\nI'll connect the `Google Docs` node's \"main\" output to the `Respond to Webhook` node's \"main\" input. This ensures that the document content is available to the response node.\n\nThe `Respond to Webhook` node is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node is designed specifically for handling the final response for a webhook trigger. I'll configure it to respond with the extracted content. Since the Google Docs node typically outputs the document content in a field like `content`, I'll set the `responseBody` to reference that field using an expression, something like `{{ $json.content }}`. This tells the node to grab the `content` property from the data that came from the previous node and use it directly as the body of the HTTP response. I'd set the `respondWith` parameter to \"Text\" (`respondWith: \"text\"`) because the extracted document content is essentially plain text.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The `Webhook` kicks it off, `Google Docs` fetches the data, and `Respond to Webhook` sends it back. It's a straightforward linear flow, exactly what's needed for this task. I wouldn't really consider other node types for this specific problem, like an HTTP Request node for fetching the Google Doc, because the Google Docs node is purpose-built and handles authentication and parsing much more gracefully. Similarly, trying to manually construct an HTTP response without the dedicated `Respond to Webhook` node would be overly complex. This structure is clean and efficient for the stated requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON featuring a 'When clicking Test workflow' manual trigger connected sequentially to 'Edit Fields' and 'Edit Fields1' set nodes.

The user prompt specifies a very particular setup, and I'll build it step-by-step, explaining my choices as I go.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger that kicks things off. Looking at the prompt and the provided JSON, it's clear we need a manual trigger. So, I'll begin by adding a **'When clicking Test workflow'** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and it's using `typeVersion 1`. This node is perfect for workflows that need to be initiated manually, like when you're developing and testing, or for simple, on-demand processes. Its parameters are empty, which is typical for a basic manual trigger \u2013 it just waits for a click to generate an execution.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the prompt specifies that this manual trigger should be connected sequentially to an 'Edit Fields' node. So, my next logical step is to add that node. I'll add a **'Edit Fields'** node, which, according to the JSON, is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion 3.2`. The Set node is incredibly versatile; it allows you to create new fields, update existing ones, or even remove fields from the incoming data. This is often used for data transformation or to prepare data for a subsequent node. In this particular case, the `parameters` for this 'Edit Fields' node only show an empty `options` object, meaning no specific fields are being set or modified by default. It's essentially a placeholder or a pass-through at this stage, but the capability to define data manipulation is there. I'll connect the 'main' output of the 'When clicking Test workflow' node to the 'main' input of this 'Edit Fields' node. This ensures that when the workflow is triggered, the execution flow and any initial data (though a manual trigger typically starts with empty data unless explicitly configured) are passed to the 'Edit Fields' node.\n\nFollowing the sequence, the prompt then indicates that 'Edit Fields' should be connected to 'Edit Fields1'. So, I'll add another Set node. I'll call this one **'Edit Fields1'**, and again, it's of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion 3.2`. Just like its predecessor, this node's `parameters` are configured with an empty `options` object, meaning it's not currently set up to modify any data. It's conceptually similar to the first 'Edit Fields' node, but it provides a distinct step in the workflow, perhaps for another stage of data refinement or just to demonstrate a multi-step process using similar nodes. I'll connect the 'main' output of the 'Edit Fields' node to the 'main' input of this 'Edit Fields1' node. This creates a clear, linear flow: trigger, then first data processing step, then second data processing step.\n\nFinally, the prompt mentions two isolated nodes: 'Unknown node 1' and 'Unknown node 2'. These are interesting because they're not connected to anything else in the workflow. I'll add the first one, **'Unknown node 1'**. The JSON specifies its type as `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist` and `typeVersion 1`. This immediately tells me it's a custom or non-standard node type, likely used for demonstration or a conceptual placeholder. Its `parameters` are empty, as expected for a node of this nature. It just sits there, unconnected, waiting to be potentially integrated or perhaps serving as a visual marker.\n\nAnd then, I'll add the last one, **'Unknown node 2'**. This node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither`, also with `typeVersion 1`. Similar to the previous \"unknown\" node, this one also has empty `parameters`. It's another isolated component, clearly not part of the main sequential flow we've established. Its purpose, in a real-world scenario, would be entirely external to the current data processing chain, or it might be a node that's being held in reserve, perhaps to be connected later or for specialized side-tasks that aren't triggered by the primary flow. It's just there, residing on the canvas, but not influencing the execution path we've built." } { "prompt": "Create an Airtable node with two URL input fields: one for the Airtable application (base) URL and another for the specific table URL.

The user's request is quite specific: they want an Airtable node with two specific URL input fields \u2013 one for the base, one for the table \u2013 and both should start empty. This sounds like a task focused on setting up the parameters of a single node rather than building a complex sequence.\n\nFirst things first, the core of the request is an \"Airtable node.\" So, my immediate thought is, \"I need to add an Airtable node.\" I'd go into the node selection in n8n and search for \"Airtable.\" This would bring up the `n8n-nodes-base.airtable` node. This is clearly the most suitable node type since it's designed to interact directly with Airtable and should already have the necessary fields or the capability to be configured with them. The JSON confirms this choice, showing `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.airtable\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. Sticking to `typeVersion: 1` ensures compatibility with the provided JSON; if I were to use a newer version, some parameters or behaviors *might* subtly change, so it's good practice to note the version.\n\nNow that I have the Airtable node selected, the next step is to configure its parameters according to the user's requirements. The prompt mentions \"two URL input fields: one for the Airtable application (base) URL and another for the specific table URL.\"\n\nI'd dive into the node's configuration options. I'm looking for fields where I can input URLs related to an Airtable base and table.\nLooking at the JSON, I see `parameters` which contain `application` and `table`. These look like exactly what the user is asking for.\n\nLet's configure the `application` field first, which corresponds to the \"Airtable application (base) URL.\"\nThe prompt states it should be a URL input. In n8n, for URL fields, I'd typically set the `mode` to `\"url\"`. The JSON confirms this: `\"mode\": \"url\"`. Perfect.\nThe prompt also says it should be \"initially empty, ready for user input.\" To achieve this, the `value` should be an empty string. Again, the JSON matches this with `\"value\": \"\"`.\nNow, for robust input, it's always a good idea to add some validation, especially for URLs. The JSON shows `__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. This is a really smart addition. It ensures that whatever the user types in here *must* match the typical format of an Airtable base URL (starting with `https:\/\/airtable.com\/` followed by the base ID). This helps prevent malformed URLs and guides the user. The `__rl: true` property is also present; this likely means \"resolve link,\" indicating that n8n can internally process the URL to extract the base ID or other relevant information, which is a common and useful feature for URL inputs.\n\nNext, I'll move on to the `table` field, which corresponds to the \"specific table URL.\"\nSimilar to the `application` field, it needs to be a URL input, so `mode: \"url\"` is the correct setting. The JSON confirms this.\nAnd, just like the `application` field, it needs to be \"initially empty.\" So, `value: \"\"` is again the right choice, as seen in the JSON.\nFor validation, I'd expect a slightly different regex for a table URL because it includes both the base ID and the table ID. The JSON provides `\"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. This regex correctly matches the pattern for an Airtable table URL, which is `https:\/\/airtable.com\/[base ID]\/[table ID]`. This is crucial for ensuring the user provides a complete and valid table URL. Again, `__rl: true` is present, likely for link resolution for the table ID.\n\nThe `id` and `name` of the node (`\"Airtable\"`) are standard for a newly added node of this type, and the `position` just dictates where it appears on the canvas. These don't require any special thought beyond what's generated by default.\n\nFinally, the prompt only asked for the creation and configuration of *this specific node*. It didn't mention any subsequent actions or data flow. Therefore, no connections are needed from this node to any other. The `connections: {}` in the JSON is perfectly aligned with this, indicating a standalone configured node. This fulfills the user's request completely. There's no need for an input node or any other node, as the request is about the configuration of the Airtable node itself to accept these specific URL inputs." } { "prompt": "Generate an N8n workflow that starts manually and then immediately enters a Wait node, configured to be resumed by a webhook.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resume\": \"webhook\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Wait node\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [220, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait node\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is pretty clear: we need something that kicks off manually and then just\u2026 waits. And that waiting period needs to be controlled by an external webhook. This is a common pattern when you want to pause a workflow, perhaps for human approval, or until an external system completes a long-running task and signals back.\n\nSo, the very first thing we need is a way to start the workflow. Given the requirement to \"start manually,\" my immediate thought goes to a trigger node that allows for a manual execution. The most straightforward choice for this is the **Manual Trigger** node.\n\nI'd add the **Manual Trigger** node, with its `type` being `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion` set to `1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to initiate a workflow run when someone clicks a button, typically \"Test workflow\" in the n8n editor, or manually executes it from the workflow list. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters (`parameters: {}`), which makes it simple and efficient for this purpose. Its name \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" is descriptive and clearly indicates its function. I'd place it at the starting position, maybe [0, 0] on the canvas, to keep things organized.\n\nNow, once the workflow starts, the next step is to immediately enter a waiting state. This means the output of our Manual Trigger needs to feed directly into a node that can pause the execution. For this, the **Wait** node is precisely what we need. It's designed for this exact purpose: pausing a workflow run until a specific condition is met or a signal is received.\n\nSo, I'll add the **Wait** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.wait`, and the `typeVersion` is `1.1`. This version handles the core waiting functionality effectively. I'll connect the main output of the **Manual Trigger** node to the main input of this new **Wait** node. This ensures that as soon as the workflow is manually triggered, the execution flow immediately proceeds to the waiting step.\n\nNow, for the configuration of this **Wait** node. The prompt specifies that it needs to be \"configured to be resumed by a webhook.\" This is crucial. If I just left it as a generic Wait node, it might wait for a fixed duration or some other arbitrary condition. But we need an external signal. Looking at the `parameters` for the Wait node, I see `{\"resume\": \"webhook\", \"options\": {}}`. This `resume: \"webhook\"` setting is exactly what's required. It tells the node, \"Don't resume until a specific webhook endpoint associated with *this specific execution* receives an HTTP POST request.\" This is incredibly powerful for asynchronous processes.\n\nThe `options: {}` indicates that no additional configurations like a timeout are set, meaning it will wait indefinitely until that webhook is hit. For a scenario where you want to ensure it doesn't wait forever, you might add a timeout here, but for this specific request, leaving it open-ended makes sense.\n\nFinally, you'll notice the `webhookId` property on the Wait node, for example, `\"62aad98c-81b3-4c44-9adb-b33a23d1271d\"`. This isn't something I'd manually configure. When the workflow is activated and runs, n8n dynamically generates a unique webhook URL for *each individual workflow execution* that reaches this Wait node. This unique ID is what allows the specific paused execution to be resumed without affecting other concurrent executions of the same workflow. It's an internal mechanism n8n uses to manage concurrent workflow states.\n\nSo, to summarize, the flow is: manual start, then immediate pause, waiting for a unique webhook signal to continue. This structure directly addresses the user's requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

The prompt is very clear: \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me what my very first node needs to be.\n\nSo, I'd bring in a **Manual Trigger** node. Its full type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the perfect choice because it's designed specifically for workflows that you want to run by clicking the \"Execute Workflow\" button directly within the n8n interface. It doesn't listen for external events or schedules; it just waits for a user to tell it to go. For its parameters, the JSON shows an empty `parameters` object, which makes sense because for a basic manual trigger, there isn't really any specific configuration needed other than its existence to start the flow. It simply sends a single item downstream when activated.\n\nOnce the workflow is manually triggered, what's the next step? The goal is to \"create a new folder named 'n8n-rocks' in Box.\" This clearly indicates we need to interact with the Box service.\n\nSo, from my `On clicking 'execute'` (the manual trigger) node, I'd draw a `main` connection. This connection will pass the execution flow directly to the next node, which needs to be the one handling the Box operation. The manual trigger doesn't output any specific data that the Box node needs, it just signals \"start now\".\n\nThe next node will be a **Box** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.box`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is absolutely essential for anything involving Box, as it encapsulates all the logic for communicating with the Box API.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Box node to create a folder? Looking at the parameters provided in the JSON, I can see a few key things:\n* `resource: \"folder\"`: This is crucial. The Box node can interact with various resources like files, folders, users, etc. By setting `resource` to \"folder\", I'm telling the node that my operation will be on a Box folder.\n* `name: \"n8n-rocks\"`: This directly addresses the requirement to name the new folder \"n8n-rocks\". When creating a folder, this parameter specifies the desired name for it.\n* `options: {}`: There are no additional options needed for this basic folder creation, so that remains empty.\n\nWhat about the operation? While it's not explicitly listed as `operation: \"create\"` in the provided JSON, for a Box node with `resource: \"folder\"` and a `name` provided (without an ID of an existing folder to update), the implicit or default operation would be 'Create'. If it were an update, it would typically require a folder ID. So, by providing just a name for a new folder resource, the node will know to create it.\n\nFinally, for the Box node to actually do anything, it needs to authenticate with Box. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"boxOAuth2Api\": \"box\"}`. This means that a Box OAuth2 API credential, which holds the necessary access tokens and configuration to connect to a user's Box account, has been set up previously in n8n and is named \"box\" (or whatever alias the user gave it). This is where the workflow gets the necessary permissions to create the folder in the specified Box account. Without valid credentials, the node wouldn't be able to perform its action.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps it up. The manual trigger initiates the workflow, and then the Box node, configured to create a folder with the specified name and using the set-up credentials, handles the actual task. It's a very straightforward and efficient workflow for this particular requirement." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers on a POST webhook, fetches a random cocktail recipe from an API, and then sends its name, instructions, serving glass, and image to a Mattermost channel, dynamically pulling the channel ID from the webhook's body.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"webhook\", \"options\": {}, \"httpMethod\": \"POST\"}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [340, 200]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [570, 200]}, {\"parameters\": {\"message\": \"=Why not try {{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strDrink\\\"]}}?\\n{{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strInstructions\\\"]}} Serve in {{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strGlass\\\"]}}.\", \"channelId\": \"={{$node[\\\"Webhook\\\"].json[\\\"body\\\"][\\\"channel_id\\\"]}}\", \"attachments\": [{\"image_url\": \"={{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strDrinkThumb\\\"]}}\"}], \"otherOptions\": {}}, \"name\": \"Mattermost\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.mattermost\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [770, 200]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Mattermost\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's design this workflow piece by piece, thinking through each decision as we go.\n\nThe very first thing we need is a way for the workflow to *start*. The user prompt explicitly states it should \"trigger on a POST webhook.\" This immediately tells me I need a `Webhook` node. It's the standard entry point for external events like an incoming HTTP request. I'll set its `httpMethod` to `POST` because that's what's specified, and I'll give it a simple `path` like \"webhook\" so it has a specific endpoint to listen on. This is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node will just sit there, waiting for someone to send it data.\n\nOnce that webhook triggers, the next step is to get the actual cocktail recipe. The prompt says \"fetches a random cocktail recipe from an API.\" This clearly points to making an outbound HTTP call to an external service. For that, the `HTTP Request` node is the perfect choice. It's designed specifically for fetching data from or sending data to web APIs. I'll connect its main output from the `Webhook` node's main output, meaning as soon as the webhook receives data, it'll trigger this HTTP request. For the `url` parameter, I'll put the specific API endpoint provided for fetching a random cocktail: `https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php`. No special options seem needed for a simple GET request like this. This is `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` with `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow that we have the cocktail data, the final step is to \"send its name, instructions, serving glass, and image to a Mattermost channel, dynamically pulling the channel ID from the webhook's body.\" This clearly requires a `Mattermost` node. This node is purpose-built for interacting with Mattermost, sending messages, and handling attachments. I'll connect its main input from the `HTTP Request` node's main output, so it only runs once we've successfully fetched the cocktail data. This node will also need a credential, which would be a generic Mattermost API key or token that has been set up previously in n8n.\n\nLet's think about how to configure the `Mattermost` node's parameters.\nThe `message` needs to include the cocktail's name, instructions, and serving glass. I'll use expressions to pull this information directly from the data returned by the `HTTP Request` node. So, something like: `\"Why not try {{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strDrink\\\"]}}?\\n{{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strInstructions\\\"]}} Serve in {{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strGlass\\\"]}}.\"` This makes the message dynamic, always showing the details of the random cocktail fetched.\n\nThen, for the `image`, the prompt specifically asks for the image to be sent. Mattermost messages can include `attachments`, and within an attachment, you can specify an `image_url`. I'll again use an expression to pull the image URL from the `HTTP Request` node's data: `{{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strDrinkThumb\\\"]}}`.\n\nAnd here's the crucial part: the `channelId`. The requirement is to dynamically pull it from the *webhook's body*. This means the channel ID won't be hardcoded; it will be provided by whatever system triggers our webhook. So, I need to reference the data that came into the very first node. I'll use another expression for `channelId`: `={{$node[\\\"Webhook\\\"].json[\\\"body\\\"][\\\"channel_id\\\"]}}`. This makes the workflow incredibly flexible, allowing the calling system to decide which Mattermost channel receives the message.\n\nThis `Mattermost` node is `n8n-nodes-base.mattermost` with `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nAnd that rounds out the workflow. We start with the `Webhook` listening for a POST, then make an `HTTP Request` to get our data, and finally send that data formatted correctly to `Mattermost`, making sure to pull the channel ID dynamically from the initial webhook. Everything seems to be covered." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a Manual Trigger node and connects sequentially to two Set nodes.", "json": "{\"name\": \"ff739753-9d6e-46a7-94d3-25bd03dd4973\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The request is quite straightforward: a manual trigger followed by two sequential Set nodes. This sounds like a basic data manipulation flow, perhaps for testing or preparing data before a more complex operation.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick it off. The user prompt explicitly states \"starts with a Manual Trigger node.\" So, that's the obvious choice for our first node. Looking at the provided JSON, I see a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is exactly what we need. I'll name it \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is a standard descriptive name for this kind of trigger. This node is perfect because it allows someone to manually initiate the workflow from the n8n interface, which is super useful for debugging, testing, or simply running a workflow ad-hoc. For its parameters, a manual trigger typically doesn't need much configuration itself; it just provides a single item to start the flow, which is reflected in the empty `parameters` object in the JSON for this node. The position `[600, 580]` suggests a good starting point visually on the canvas, usually on the left.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the prompt says it \"connects sequentially to two Set nodes.\" So, the very next step after our manual trigger should be a Set node. I'll look for the first Set node in the JSON. I see one with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` and `typeVersion: 1`, named \"Set\". This is the one. The Set node is incredibly versatile. Its primary purpose is to add, modify, or remove data fields on the incoming items. Even if its `parameters` object, specifically `options`, is empty as it is here in the JSON, its *purpose* in a real workflow would be to transform the data that comes from the previous node. For example, we might add a new field like `{\"status\": \"processing\"}` or transform an existing one. For now, it's just a placeholder for a data manipulation step.\n\nNext, we need to connect our Manual Trigger to this first Set node. Looking at the `connections` object in the JSON, I can see `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This confirms that the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's main output is connected to the \"Set\" node's main input. This is the standard way to pass data items from one node to the next in n8n \u2013 the items flow directly along the 'main' connection. The position `[820, 580]` for this \"Set\" node places it nicely to the right of the trigger, maintaining a clear visual flow.\n\nFollowing the prompt's instruction, we need a *second* Set node, connected sequentially. So, after our first \"Set\" node, we'll add another one. I check the JSON again and find a node named \"Set1\" with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. Perfect. This second Set node would serve a similar purpose to the first one: to further process or add data to the items that come from the *first* Set node. Maybe the first Set node adds a `status` field, and this second one adds a `timestamp` field, or modifies the `status` to `completed`. Again, the `parameters.options` are empty in the JSON, meaning no specific data manipulation is configured at this point, but its role is clear.\n\nFinally, I need to connect the first \"Set\" node to this new \"Set1\" node. Checking the `connections` object, I see `\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This clearly indicates that the main output of the \"Set\" node feeds directly into the main input of the \"Set1\" node. This ensures that any data processed by the first Set node is then passed along for the second Set node to act upon. The position `[1040, 580]` places \"Set1\" visually to the right of the first \"Set\" node, maintaining that nice, linear flow across the canvas.\n\nSo, we have a Manual Trigger that starts the workflow, passes its initial item to a Set node for some potential data manipulation, and then that item (or modified item) is passed to a second Set node for further processing. It's a simple, linear flow, exactly as requested." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named '[UDIA] Error trigger' that listens for workflow errors.

This immediately tells me I'll need a way to *catch* errors and then a way to *send* a notification.\n\nFirst off, I need a trigger. Something that starts this workflow when another workflow fails. Looking at the available nodes in n8n, the most fitting one for this purpose is definitely the \"Error Trigger\" node. Its sole job is to listen for errors that occur in other workflows within the n8n instance.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding the \"Error Trigger\" node.\n- Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.errorTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the standard, dedicated node for error handling in n8n.\n- I'll place it at the beginning of my canvas, say at `[0, 0]`, as it's the very first step of this workflow.\n- This node doesn't require any specific configuration parameters; its default behavior is to simply listen. So, its `parameters` section will be empty, which is exactly what I'd expect. I'll name it \"Error Trigger\" for clarity.\n\nNow that I have the trigger in place, I need to think about what happens *when* an error is caught. The prompt states that a Telegram message should be sent. This means my next step will involve a Telegram node.\n\nI'll connect the \"Error Trigger\" node to a \"Telegram\" node. The \"Error Trigger\" will output data about the error that occurred, which the Telegram node can then use to construct the message. So, the 'main' output of the \"Error Trigger\" will feed into the 'main' input of the \"Telegram\" node.\n\nNext, I'll add and configure the \"Telegram\" node.\n- The `type` for this node is `n8n-nodes-base.telegram`, and the `typeVersion` is `1.2`. This is the standard node for interacting with the Telegram Bot API.\n- I'll place it to the right of the \"Error Trigger\", maybe at `[220, 0]`, to visually represent the flow.\n- The prompt specifies a `chatId` of `8096562141`, so I'll set that directly in the node's parameters. This ensures the message goes to the correct Telegram chat.\n- The most crucial part here is the message content itself. The requirement is to include \"the error message and the name of the last executed node.\"\n - When the \"Error Trigger\" fires, it populates data about the error in the workflow's execution context. I know from working with n8n that error details like the message are typically accessible via `$json.execution.error.message`, and information about which node was running last is found at `$json.execution.lastNodeExecuted`.\n - So, for the `text` parameter, I'll use an expression. I want a clear prefix, then the error message, a line break for readability, another prefix, and finally the last executed node name.\n - The expression will look something like this: `=Error: {{ $json.execution.error.message }} \\n\\n\u00daltimo nodo ejecutado: {{ $json.execution.lastNodeExecuted }}`. This dynamically pulls the specific error message and the name of the node that failed, presenting it in a structured way.\n- There's also an `additionalFields` setting for `appendAttribution` set to `false`. This is usually a good idea for notification workflows like this, as it prevents n8n from adding its default \"Sent via n8n\" attribution to the message, keeping the message clean and focused solely on the error information.\n- Finally, for the \"Telegram\" node to actually send messages, it needs credentials. I'll ensure that a Telegram API credential is properly configured and linked to this node. This credential would contain the necessary bot token to authenticate with Telegram.\n\nBefore saving, I'll double-check the overall workflow settings. The prompt clearly states the workflow should be \"inactive\" initially. So, I'll make sure the `active` flag at the top level of the workflow definition is set to `false`. The name of the workflow should also be `[UDIA] Error trigger`, which I'll confirm.\n\nOther settings like `executionOrder` and `timezone` are standard workflow properties. The `callerPolicy: \"workflowsFromSameOwner\"` for the error trigger is a sensible default, meaning this error handler will only react to errors from other workflows owned by the same user account, which helps in organization and security.\n\nThat pretty much covers it. The \"Error Trigger\" catches the problem, extracts the relevant details, and then passes them to the \"Telegram\" node, which formats and sends the alert.

The user wants something that kicks off manually and then feeds into a `DebugHelper` to generate some specific random data.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to actually *start* this workflow. The prompt explicitly says it needs to begin with a manual trigger. For that, the `manualTrigger` node is the perfect fit. It's straightforward: when a user clicks \"Execute workflow\" or \"Test workflow\" in the n8n interface, this node fires. I'll add `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion 1`. Its parameters are usually empty since its primary job is just to initiate the workflow; it doesn't really need any specific configuration itself, just the act of being triggered. This will be the very first node in our flow, naturally positioned at the start.\n\nNow that we have a starting point, what's next? The prompt states it needs to be connected to a `DebugHelper` node. This sounds like we're going to generate some test data or perhaps use it to inspect what's happening in the workflow. The `DebugHelper` node (`n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper`, `typeVersion 1`) is ideal for this, as its name suggests, it's a utility for debugging and generating various kinds of test data.\n\nLet's think about how the `DebugHelper` needs to be configured. The prompt specifies two key things: \"100 random data items\" and \"using a seed of 0\".\nThe `DebugHelper` node has a `category` parameter, and I'll need to set that to `randomData`. This tells the node, \"Hey, I'm not just inspecting data, I want you to *create* random data for me.\"\nThen, to control the quantity, there's a `randomDataCount` parameter, which I'll set to `100`. This directly fulfills the requirement for 100 items.\nFinally, for reproducibility, the prompt asks for a \"seed of 0\". The `randomDataSeed` parameter is exactly what I need here. Setting it to `0` means that every time this workflow runs, the \"random\" data generated will be the exact same sequence. This is super helpful for consistent testing and debugging, ensuring that if an issue arises, it's not due to varying random inputs.\n\nWith the nodes defined, the next logical step is to connect them. The `manualTrigger` needs to pass its execution flow to the `DebugHelper`. This is a standard main connection: the output of the `manualTrigger` will feed into the input of the `DebugHelper`. The `manualTrigger` simply passes on a single item, which effectively acts as a signal for the `DebugHelper` to execute its configured task of generating the 100 random data items. So, a main connection from \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" to \"DebugHelper\" will work perfectly.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it! The workflow starts with a manual prompt, which then triggers the DebugHelper to generate reproducible random data. Simple and effective for the given requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts manually, uses a Cortex node to analyze `https:\/\/n8n.io` with the `Abuse_Finder_3_0` URL analyzer, and then another Cortex node to get the details of the created job.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Analyze a URL and get the job details using the Cortex node\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [370, 220]}, {\"parameters\": {\"analyzer\": \"f4abc1b633b80f45af165970793fd4fd::Abuse_Finder_3_0\", \"observableType\": \"url\", \"observableValue\": \"https:\/\/n8n.io\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Cortex\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cortex\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [570, 220]}, {\"parameters\": {\"jobId\": \"={{$node[\\\"Cortex\\\"].json[\\\"_id\\\"]}}\", \"resource\": \"job\"}, \"name\": \"Cortex1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cortex\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [770, 220]}], \"connections\": {\"Cortex\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Cortex1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Cortex\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start designing this n8n workflow from the ground up, keeping the user's request and the provided JSON in mind.\n\nFirst, I need to consider the initial requirement: \"Create an n8n workflow that starts manually\". This immediately tells me what the very first node in our workflow should be. For a manual start, the `Manual Trigger` node is the perfect choice. So, I'd drag out a `Manual Trigger` node. I see in the JSON it's named \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is descriptive. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is 1. This node is pretty straightforward; it doesn't really need any specific parameters configured for its basic functionality of just starting the workflow when a user clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button or manually triggers it within the n8n UI. It acts as our entry point.\n\nNext, the prompt states: \"uses a Cortex node to analyze `https:\/\/n8n.io` with the `Abuse_Finder_3_0` URL analyzer\". This means our second node will definitely be a `Cortex` node. I'll connect it directly from our `Manual Trigger`. Looking at the JSON, this node is named \"Cortex\". Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.cortex` and `typeVersion` is 1.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Cortex node?\nThe prompt specifies analyzing a URL, so for the `observableType` parameter, I'd set it to `url`.\nThe specific URL to analyze is `https:\/\/n8n.io`, so that value will go into the `observableValue` parameter.\nAnd for the `analyzer`, it's explicitly mentioned as `Abuse_Finder_3_0`. The JSON shows the full analyzer ID as `f4abc1b633b80f45af165970793fd4fd::Abuse_Finder_3_0`, which is the correct format Cortex expects. So I'd configure that in the `analyzer` field.\nThere are no `additionalFields` specified for this analysis, so I can leave that empty as the JSON indicates.\nCrucially, for any Cortex node to work, it needs credentials to connect to a Cortex instance. The JSON shows `cortexApi` is set to \"cortex\". This would link to a pre-configured API credential that holds the necessary authentication details for the Cortex server.\n\nAfter this first Cortex node analyzes the URL and submits a job, the prompt requires \"another Cortex node to get the details of the created job.\" This is a common pattern: initiate an action, then fetch its status or details. So, I'll add another `Cortex` node and connect it from the first one. This ensures that the job is submitted and exists before we try to retrieve its details. The JSON names this second node \"Cortex1\". It's also of type `n8n-nodes-base.cortex` and `typeVersion` 1.\n\nFor this second Cortex node, we're not submitting a new analysis; we're retrieving information about an existing job. So, for its configuration:\nThe `resource` parameter should be set to `job`, as we're interested in job details.\nThe critical part here is identifying *which* job's details we want. We need the job ID from the *previous* Cortex node. The JSON wisely uses an expression for the `jobId` parameter: `={{$node[\"Cortex\"].json[\"_id\"]}}`. This is how n8n dynamically passes data between nodes. It tells n8n to look at the output JSON of the node named \"Cortex\" (our first Cortex node) and extract the value of the `_id` property. That `_id` is typically the unique identifier for the job that was just created. This setup is perfect because it ensures we are retrieving details for the *specific* job initiated in the preceding step.\nAgain, this node would also require `cortexApi` credentials, linking to the same credential as the first Cortex node to authenticate with the Cortex instance.\n\nThe connections section in the JSON confirms this flow perfectly: `On clicking 'execute'` connects to \"Cortex\", and \"Cortex\" then connects to \"Cortex1\". This sequential execution ensures the workflow progresses logically: trigger, analyze, then get details of that analysis. This seems like a complete and well-structured workflow based on the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named '[UDIA] Error de Trigger'.

Once an error is detected, we want to send a notification via Telegram, including key details about that error \u2013 specifically, the error message itself and which node caused the issue. The workflow also needs a specific name and should start out inactive.\n\nMy first thought immediately goes to the trigger. How do I even *start* a workflow based on an error happening somewhere else in n8n? This isn't a typical schedule or webhook trigger. I'd need something very specific for error handling. Looking at the n8n nodes, there's usually a dedicated \"Error Trigger\" node for exactly this purpose.\n\nSo, I'll start by adding an **Error Trigger** node.\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.errorTrigger`\n* **Type Version**: `1`\n* **Why this node**: This is the perfect starting point because its sole purpose is to listen for execution errors from other workflows within the n8n instance. It will automatically capture information about the error that occurred, which is exactly what we need for our notification.\n* **Configuration**: When I add this node, I see it doesn't really require any specific parameters to be set on it. It simply sits there, waiting to catch errors. This makes sense; it's a listener, not something that needs to be told what kind of error to look for beyond just \"any execution error.\"\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's the next step? The prompt says we need to \"send a Telegram message.\" This tells me the very next node should be something that can interface with Telegram.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Telegram** node.\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.telegram`\n* **Type Version**: `1.2`\n* **Why this node**: The Telegram node is a standard integration in n8n for sending messages directly to a Telegram chat or channel. It's the most straightforward way to fulfill the notification requirement. Using a slightly newer typeVersion like 1.2 might offer minor improvements or new features over earlier versions, but for basic message sending, the core functionality typically remains stable across minor version bumps.\n* **Connecting it**: The `Error Trigger` needs to pass its output (the error data) to the `Telegram` node. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the `Error Trigger` directly to the `main` input of the `Telegram` node. This ensures that when an error event fires the trigger, the data about that error is immediately available to the Telegram node for processing.\n\nNow, let's configure the `Telegram` node itself. This is where we define *what* message gets sent and *where* it goes.\n\nFirst, the recipient:\n* **Chat ID**: The workflow JSON shows `chatId: \"=2104798385\"`. Here, I'd need to provide the specific chat ID of the Telegram user or group where these error notifications should be sent. This value would typically be pre-configured or looked up.\n\nNext, the message content itself. This is crucial for fulfilling the prompt's requirements: \"containing the error's message and the name of the last executed node.\"\n* **Text Message**: The JSON has `text: \"=Error: {{ $json.execution.error.message }} \\n\\u00daltimo nodo ejecutado: {{ $json.execution.lastNodeExecuted }}\"`. This uses n8n's expression syntax, which is exactly what we need to dynamically pull data from the error event.\n * `{{ $json.execution.error.message }}`: This expression will retrieve the actual error message string from the data provided by the `Error Trigger` node. This is a direct mapping to the \"error's message\" requirement.\n * `\\n`: This is a newline character, which ensures the \"last executed node\" information appears on a new line, making the message more readable.\n * `{{ $json.execution.lastNodeExecuted }}`: This expression will extract the name of the node that was actively running when the error occurred. This directly satisfies the \"name of the last executed node\" requirement.\n This setup ensures the message is informative and directly addresses the problem.\n\n* **Additional Fields**: I see `additionalFields: {\"appendAttribution\": false}`. This setting typically controls whether the n8n platform adds a small \"sent by n8n\" footer or similar attribution to the message. Setting it to `false` means we don't want that extra text.\n\n* **Credentials**: Finally, for the Telegram node to work, it needs to authenticate with the Telegram API. The JSON indicates `credentials: {\"telegramApi\": {\"id\": \"nrVkJwO8bDlEbiJN\", \"name\": \"Telegram account\"}}`. This means I'd need to have a pre-configured Telegram API credential set up in n8n, likely containing a Bot Token, which allows n8n to send messages on behalf of a Telegram bot. This credential would be selected here.\n\nOnce these nodes are connected and configured, the workflow is functionally complete for its stated purpose. I'd also make sure the workflow's overall settings align with the prompt:\n* **Name**: The prompt specified the name '[UDIA] Error de Trigger', so I'd set the workflow name accordingly.\n* **Active State**: The prompt explicitly stated \"inactive,\" so I would ensure the workflow's `active` flag is set to `false`. This means it won't automatically start listening for errors until it's manually activated.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow is designed to catch errors, extract key information, and send it to a designated Telegram chat." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow featuring a manual trigger.

When I'm building something like this, the first thing I think about is how the workflow is going to kick off. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger,\" which is pretty straightforward.\n\nSo, for the very first step, I'd bring in the **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it just sits there, waiting for someone to manually click \"Execute Workflow\" or \"Execute Node\" in the n8n UI. It doesn't need any special configuration, as its `parameters` are empty, which is exactly what I'd expect for a simple manual trigger. I'd give it a descriptive name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's clear what it does right from the start. This sets up our entry point.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions connecting it to a \"disabled code node named 'Error' containing an intentional error in its JavaScript.\" This sounds like a perfect use case for the **Code** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.code` and `typeVersion` is `1`. The Code node is incredibly versatile for running custom JavaScript logic. I'd drag one onto the canvas right after my Manual Trigger.\n\nNow, for its configuration:\nFirst, I'd name it \"Error\" as requested.\nThen, I need to make sure it's *disabled*. The JSON shows `disabled: true`, which is exactly what I'd set. This is important because even though it contains an error, if it were enabled, it would halt the workflow's execution when that error is hit. Since the prompt implies a subsequent successful node, disabling this one is key to allowing the workflow to continue through to the next steps without actually breaking.\n\nFor the JavaScript inside this \"Error\" node, the prompt specifies an \"intentional error.\" The JSON provides a loop that tries to add `myNewField` but then just has `error` on its own line. This `error` isn't a defined variable or function, so it will definitely cause a runtime error, fulfilling that requirement beautifully. The idea here is probably to demonstrate what a disabled error node looks like or to have it available for future debugging purposes if we ever wanted to re-enable and test error handling.\n\nNow for the connection: I'd take the primary output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node and connect it directly to the primary input of this \"Error\" node. This ensures that when the trigger is activated, the execution flow moves directly to attempt to process this \"Error\" node.\n\nFinally, the prompt says this \"Error\" node \"then connects to another code node named 'Code' that successfully adds a 'myNewField' property.\" Again, a **Code** node is the way to go here. It's the same `type`, `n8n-nodes-base.code`, and `typeVersion`, `1`.\n\nI'd place this third node right after the \"Error\" node.\nIts name, as specified, would be \"Code\".\nThe crucial part is its JavaScript. Unlike the \"Error\" node, this one needs to *successfully* add the `myNewField` property. The JSON shows a clean loop: `for (const item of $input.all()) { item.json.myNewField = 1; } return $input.all();`. This code correctly iterates through all incoming items and adds `myNewField` to their JSON, which is exactly what's required for a successful operation. There's no rogue `error` here, so it should run without issues.\n\nFor the connection, I'd link the main output of the \"Error\" node to the main input of this \"Code\" node. Even though the \"Error\" node is disabled, it still passes through its input data to its output if it's skipped. So, when the manual trigger fires, its output goes to the disabled \"Error\" node, which effectively just passes the data through (since it's disabled, it doesn't execute its problematic code), and then that data arrives at the \"Code\" node, which then successfully processes it. This setup perfectly matches the flow described in the prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"Get Weather\" that starts with a trigger and then uses a Set node to define a \"response\" variable with the value \"Weather is sunny\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get Weather\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [560, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"Weather is sunny\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, 340]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The request is pretty clear: a workflow named \"Get Weather\" that starts with a trigger and then uses a Set node to define a specific variable.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point. It needs something to kick it off. Looking at the prompt, it simply says \"starts with a trigger.\" This is quite broad, but for a general purpose workflow that we might want to manually test or have initiated by a simple event, an \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node is usually the most straightforward choice.\n\nSo, I'd bring in an **Execute Workflow Trigger** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`\n* **TypeVersion:** `1`\n* **Why this node?** It's the most basic and versatile trigger. It doesn't require any specific external event to be configured initially, making it perfect for development and testing, or for workflows that you intend to run manually from the n8n UI. It just acts as the workflow's entry point.\n* **Configuration:** For this specific trigger type, there aren't many parameters to set when it's just a general workflow trigger. It essentially just fires an empty item to start the flow. The JSON confirms it has empty parameters `{}`. That's exactly what I'd expect here.\n\nNow that we have a way to start the workflow, the next part of the prompt is crucial: \"then uses a Set node to define a 'response' variable with the value 'Weather is sunny'.\" This tells me exactly what the next step should be \u2013 manipulating data. The **Set** node is purpose-built for this. It allows us to add, remove, or modify fields (variables) within the data that flows through the workflow.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Set** node and connect it to our trigger.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **TypeVersion:** `3.4`\n* **Why this node?** As mentioned, the Set node is ideal for defining or modifying data. We need to create a variable named \"response\" with a specific value, and this node is precisely designed for that task. Using `typeVersion 3.4` means we're using a relatively recent version of the Set node, which often comes with improved options for data handling, though for a simple assignment, even older versions would work fine.\n* **Configuration:** This is where we tell the Set node exactly what to do. The prompt requires us to define a \"response\" variable with the value \"Weather is sunny.\"\n * I'd go into the node's parameters and find the \"Assignments\" section.\n * Here, I'd add a new assignment.\n * The `Name` of the field will be \"response\".\n * The `Value` will be \"Weather is sunny\".\n * The `Type` of this value is clearly a string, so I'd make sure it's set to \"string\". This explicit type definition is good practice and helps n8n understand how to handle the data.\n * The JSON shows exactly this: `{\"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"Weather is sunny\", \"type\": \"string\"}` under the `assignments` array. There are no special options needed, so the `options` object is empty, which aligns with my simple data assignment goal.\n\nFinally, we need to make sure the workflow flows from the trigger to the Set node.\n* **Connection:** The \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node needs to be connected to the \"Set\" node.\n * The `main` output of the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" should connect to the `main` input of the \"Set\" node (which n8n names \"Edit Fields\" in this JSON, a common default name for Set nodes).\n * This connection ensures that once the trigger fires, it passes an item (even if it's an empty one, as is the case with this basic trigger) to the Set node, causing the Set node to execute its logic and create our \"response\" variable. The `connections` object in the JSON confirms this: `{\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This looks perfect and establishes the sequential flow we need." } { "prompt": "Design an n8n workflow that fetches a random cocktail from `thecocktaildb.com` via an HTTP request, converts the JSON response to binary data, and then saves it to a file named `cocktail.json`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [400, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"jsonToBinary\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Move Binary Data\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [550, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"cocktail.json\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [700, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Move Binary Data\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Move Binary Data\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's design this workflow from the ground up, thinking through each step. The goal is to fetch a random cocktail, convert its JSON response to binary, and then save it to a file.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the prompt, it sounds like something we'd want to run manually when we feel like getting a new cocktail. So, the perfect choice for our initial node would be a **Manual Trigger** node.\n\nI'd add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and set its `typeVersion: 1`. This node is really simple; it just sits there, waiting for someone to click \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n interface. Its `parameters` are empty because there's nothing to configure for a basic manual trigger. This is our workflow's kickoff point.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next logical step is to actually get the data. The prompt specifically says \"fetch a random cocktail from `thecocktaildb.com` via an HTTP request.\" This immediately tells me we need an **HTTP Request** node.\n\nSo, I'd bring in a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`, with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is the workhorse for interacting with external APIs. For its `parameters`, the most critical one is the `url`. The prompt gives us the exact URL: `https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php`. I'd plug that directly into the `url` field. The `options` parameter can remain empty, as a simple GET request is sufficient for this API, and that's the default behavior. I'd then connect the output of our \"On clicking 'execute'\" (the `manualTrigger`) node to the input of this \"HTTP Request\" node. This ensures that as soon as the workflow starts, it immediately tries to fetch the cocktail data.\n\nNow, we've got the JSON response from the API, but the prompt has a specific requirement: \"converts the JSON response to binary data.\" An `HTTP Request` node usually outputs the response body as a JSON object within an n8n item. To save it as a file, especially if we want the *raw* JSON string content saved directly, it's often best to convert it into a binary format that subsequent file operations can handle. For this, the **Move Binary Data** node is ideal.\n\nI'd add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is designed to manipulate or convert data between standard n8n items and binary data. Looking at its `parameters`, the `mode` field is crucial here. Since we want to convert JSON to binary, I'd set `mode` to `jsonToBinary`. This tells the node to take the JSON content it receives from the previous node and attach it as binary data to the n8n item. The `options` can remain empty as we don't need any special configurations for this conversion. I'd connect the output of our \"HTTP Request\" node to the input of this \"Move Binary Data\" node, making sure the JSON response flows into it.\n\nFinally, the prompt states, \"then saves it to a file named `cocktail.json`.\" Now that we have our JSON data nicely converted into binary format, saving it to a file is straightforward with the **Write Binary File** node.\n\nI'd pick a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile`, with `typeVersion: 1`. This node's entire purpose is to take binary data and write it to a specified file. For its `parameters`, the most important one is `fileName`. I'd set this directly to `cocktail.json`, exactly as requested in the prompt. Other configurations like a specific `filePath` or `fileExtension` are not specified and can be left at their defaults, meaning it will likely save to a default working directory for n8n or whatever base path is configured for the workflow execution. I would then connect the output of the \"Move Binary Data\" node to the input of this \"Write Binary File\" node. This completes the flow: the trigger starts it, the HTTP request fetches the data, the data is converted to binary, and then that binary data is written to our specified file. It's a neat, sequential process to achieve the user's goal." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a manual trigger that makes a GraphQL request to `https:\/\/api.spacex.land\/graphql\/`.

The goal is to fetch data about past SpaceX launches using a GraphQL API, triggered manually.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly states \"starting with a manual trigger.\" This is straightforward. I'd reach for the `Manual Trigger` node. It's perfect for when I want to initiate the workflow myself, perhaps during development, testing, or for ad-hoc runs. It's a `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node, and its `typeVersion` is 1. This node doesn't really need any configuration; its purpose is simply to kick off the execution when clicked. It's usually the very first node I drop onto the canvas.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's the very next step? The core requirement here is to make a \"GraphQL request\" to a specific endpoint to \"fetch data.\" This immediately tells me I'll need a node that can communicate via GraphQL. n8n has a dedicated `GraphQL` node, which is ideal for this. It's much more convenient than trying to construct a GraphQL query within an HTTP Request node, as the GraphQL node understands the nuances of GraphQL syntax and operations. So, the `GraphQL` node, `n8n-nodes-base.graphql` with `typeVersion` 1, is the clear choice.\n\nHow do these two nodes connect? Well, the `Manual Trigger` simply signals that the workflow should start, and then it passes control (an empty item, effectively) to the next node. So, a simple `main` connection from the `Manual Trigger` to the `GraphQL` node makes perfect sense. The `GraphQL` node will receive the input from the trigger and proceed with its operation.\n\nNow, let's configure this `GraphQL` node. This is where the real work happens.\n\nThe first crucial parameter is the `Endpoint`. The prompt specifies `https:\/\/api.spacex.land\/graphql\/`. So, I'd paste that URL directly into the `endpoint` field. This tells the node where to send the GraphQL query.\n\nNext, and most importantly, is the `Query`. The user wants data for \"the 5 most recent past SpaceX launches, including mission, rocket, and associated ship details.\" I need to construct a GraphQL query that fetches exactly that.\n\nLet's break down the query structure:\n* To get \"past launches,\" I'll look for a field like `launchesPast`.\n* To limit it to \"5 most recent,\" I'd add an argument like `(limit: 5)`.\n* Inside `launchesPast`, I need the \"mission details.\" The JSON query shows `mission_name`, `launch_date_local`, `launch_site { site_name_long }`, and `links { article_link, video_link }`. These provide comprehensive information about the mission itself, which is great.\n* Then, for \"rocket details,\" the query includes `rocket { rocket_name, first_stage { cores { flight, core { reuse_count, status } } }, second_stage { payloads { payload_type, payload_mass_kg, payload_mass_lbs } } }`. This goes beyond just the name and provides detailed information about the rocket's stages, cores, and payloads, which is very useful for a full understanding of the launch vehicle.\n* Finally, for \"associated ship details,\" the query uses `ships { name, home_port, image }`. This fetches the name, home port, and an image URL for any ships involved in the mission (like drone ships or recovery vessels), which perfectly fulfills that requirement.\n\nSo, the entire query would be:\n```graphql\n{\n launchesPast(limit: 5) {\n mission_name\n launch_date_local\n launch_site {\n site_name_long\n }\n links {\n article_link\n video_link\n }\n rocket {\n rocket_name\n first_stage {\n cores {\n flight\n core {\n reuse_count\n status\n }\n }\n }\n second_stage {\n payloads {\n payload_type\n payload_mass_kg\n payload_mass_lbs\n }\n }\n }\n ships {\n name\n home_port\n image\n }\n }\n}\n```\nThis query looks complete and tailored to the requirements.\n\nFor `Request Format`, the standard for GraphQL is usually `JSON`, as specified in the JSON (`requestFormat: \"json\"`). This is how the query string will be sent in the request body.\n\nFor `Response Format`, the JSON specifies `string`. While GraphQL responses are typically JSON, setting it to `string` means the node will return the raw response body as a string. I might typically set this to `JSON` if I immediately wanted to parse the output within the workflow, but `string` is also fine if subsequent nodes are capable of parsing JSON from a string, or if I just want the raw data. For this specific case, `string` is what the JSON indicates, so I'll keep it there.\n\nThe `Header Parameters` section (`headerParametersUi: {\"parameter\": []}`) is empty. This means no custom headers are needed, which is common for public GraphQL APIs that don't require authentication or specific content-type headers beyond what the `GraphQL` node handles by default. If this were an authenticated API, I'd expect to see an Authorization header here, but for this SpaceX public API, it's not required.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps up the design for this workflow. It's a simple, two-node setup that effectively achieves the stated goal." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, connects to a Switch node with empty rules, and then routes the third output of the Switch node to an \"Edit Fields\" Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [440, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"rules\": {\"values\": [{\"conditions\": {\"options\": {\"caseSensitive\": true, \"leftValue\": \"\", \"typeValidation\": \"strict\"}, \"conditions\": [{\"leftValue\": \"\", \"rightValue\": \"\", \"operator\": {\"type\": \"string\", \"operation\": \"equals\"}}], \"combinator\": \"and\"}}, {}, {}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.switch\", \"typeVersion\": 3, \"position\": [660, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.3, \"position\": [840, 480]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Switch\": {\"main\": [null, null, [{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this workflow. The first thing I need to figure out is how this whole process will kick off. The prompt clearly states it needs to \"start with a manual trigger.\"\n\nSo, the very first node I'll reach for is a `manualTrigger` node. Looking at the JSON, I see `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect for initiating a workflow on demand, typically when someone clicks \"Test workflow\" in the n8n UI, which is even reflected in its name: \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\". It doesn't require any specific configuration; it simply acts as a starting point, emitting a single empty item when triggered. This choice aligns perfectly with the requirement for a manual start. A `typeVersion` of 1 is quite standard for this basic trigger; I don't anticipate any different behavior with other versions for such a simple node.\n\nNext up, the prompt specifies that the workflow \"connects to a Switch node with empty rules.\" So, from my `manualTrigger` node, the natural progression is to connect its primary output to the input of a `Switch` node.\nI'll find the `n8n-nodes-base.switch` node in the JSON; its `typeVersion` is `3`. The Switch node is ideal here because its core function is to route incoming data to different outputs based on specified conditions. Even if the rules are empty, it still serves as a routing mechanism.\n\nNow, about those \"empty rules.\" In the JSON, I see `parameters.rules.values` is an array. The first element `values[0]` has `conditions` defined, but its `leftValue` and `rightValue` are empty strings, and the `operator` is `equals`. This essentially means the first rule is configured to check if an empty string equals an empty string, which will always be true. What's interesting is that the `values` array has three entries, but only the first one has conditions defined. The other two are just empty objects `{}`. This configuration of empty rules implies that no specific routing logic based on data content is being applied. In a Switch node, if no rule explicitly matches or if rules are empty, data often falls through to a default or subsequent output. Let's keep an eye on the connections to see how this plays out.\n\nOkay, so the `manualTrigger` node is connected to the `Switch` node's main input. That's a standard flow for passing data along.\n\nThe final piece of the puzzle, according to the prompt, is that the workflow \"routes the third output of the Switch node to an \"Edit Fields\" Set node.\"\nThis is crucial. The `Switch` node, even with its empty rule configuration, will have multiple output branches. Outputs are typically indexed starting from zero. So, \"third output\" means `index: 2` in the `connections` array for the `Switch` node.\n\nLooking at the `connections` for the `Switch` node, I see `{\"main\": [null, null, [{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This confirms my understanding! The first output (index 0) and the second output (index 1) are `null`, meaning they are not connected to anything. The third output (index 2) is indeed connected to the `Edit Fields` node. This setup with empty rules and only the third output connected effectively means that the data from the `manualTrigger` will pass through the `Switch` node and will *always* exit via its third output, regardless of the incoming data, because there are no effective conditions to divert it elsewhere.\n\nThe destination node is described as an \"Edit Fields\" Set node. I'll find the `n8n-nodes-base.set` node in the JSON, named \"Edit Fields.\" Its `typeVersion` is `3.3`. The `Set` node is perfect for this purpose. Its primary function is to manipulate data items \u2013 either adding new fields, modifying existing ones, or removing them. The prompt doesn't specify *what* fields to edit, and the JSON reflects this with `parameters.options` being an empty object `{}`. This means the node is present and connected, ready to perform data manipulation, but it's currently configured to do nothing specific in terms of field modification. It's a placeholder, or perhaps intended to be configured later to add or edit specific fields to the workflow's data.\n\nSo, to recap the flow:\n1. The workflow starts manually via the `manualTrigger` node.\n2. Data (an empty item initially) flows from the `manualTrigger` to the `Switch` node.\n3. The `Switch` node, despite having an \"empty\" rule (or effectively no routing rules beyond a basic `leftValue` empty string `equals` `rightValue` empty string, which will always be true), routes the incoming item. Given the specific connection, it seems designed to always pass the data out of its third output.\n4. Finally, this data arrives at the `Set` node, named \"Edit Fields,\" which is currently configured not to perform any specific field edits, but is ready to do so if parameters were added.\n\nThis design achieves the user's request precisely.

So, right off the bat, I'd set the workflow's `name` property to \"My workflow 8\" and ensure its `active` status is set to `false`. This keeps it from running until it's fully ready and activated.\n\nNow, looking at the core functionality, the workflow needs to begin with an \"n8n Form Trigger.\" This is the ideal node type for collecting data via a web form or a publicly accessible URL, which seems to be the intent here \u2013 to initiate a workflow based on form submission. Specifically, this would be `n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger` with `typeVersion: 2`. The version 2 indicates it's a more recent iteration of the node, likely with improved features or stability compared to older versions.\n\nFor this \"n8n Form Trigger\" node, the prompt specifies a title of \"test\" and a single field also named \"test.\" So, within the node's `parameters`, I'd configure `formTitle` to \"test.\" For the form fields, I'd set `formFields.values` to contain an array with a single object: `{\"fieldLabel\": \"test\"}`. This defines the one input field that the form will present to users. The `path` parameter, like \"d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a\", would be automatically generated or specified to create the unique URL where this form will be accessible. It\u2019s essentially the webhook endpoint for the form.\n\nThe prompt also mentions that this trigger should output two example items: 'First item' with code 1, and 'Second item' with code 2. This is crucial for testing and development. In n8n, this is handled by the `pinData` property, which allows you to define static example data that the trigger node will output when tested in the editor. So, for the \"n8n Form Trigger\" (identified by its name in `pinData`), I'd define two JSON objects: `{\"name\": \"First item\", \"code\": 1}` and `{\"name\": \"Second item\", \"code\": 2}`. This pre-fills the test data, so I don't have to manually submit the form every time I want to test the subsequent nodes. It helps immensely during the design phase.\n\nNext, the prompt states this trigger should connect to a \"Switch\" node. A \"Switch\" node (`n8n-nodes-base.switch` with `typeVersion: 2`) is perfect for routing workflow execution down different paths based on certain conditions. Even though the conditions aren't specified yet in the prompt or the JSON (its `parameters` are empty), the node is placed. This suggests it's a placeholder, ready to be configured later to examine the data coming from the form trigger \u2013 perhaps to check the 'code' value or the 'name' from our example items. Version 2 of the Switch node would likely offer improved logic capabilities or UI compared to an earlier version.\n\nFinally, establishing the connection. The \"n8n Form Trigger\" needs to flow into the \"Switch\" node. In the `connections` property of the workflow, I'd specify that the `main` output of the \"n8n Form Trigger\" connects to the `main` input of the \"Switch\" node. This ensures that any data processed by the form trigger (like our 'First item' and 'Second item' examples, or actual form submissions) will then be passed directly to the \"Switch\" node for further processing or conditional routing." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger. Connect this to a Redis node named 'Redis' which performs a 'get' operation for the key 'hello' using the 'redis-docker_creds' credential.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [270, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"key\": \"hello\", \"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"get\"}, \"name\": \"Redis\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.redis\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [470, 320]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Redis\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this n8n workflow designed. The request is quite clear: a workflow starting with a manual trigger, then hitting a Redis instance to get a specific key.\n\nSo, first things first, every workflow needs a starting point. The prompt explicitly states \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This is straightforward. I'd go for the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. It's the standard way to kick off a workflow when you want to initiate it yourself by clicking the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n interface. The `typeVersion` for this node is `1`, which is the current stable version for basic trigger functionality. There aren't any complex parameters to set for this particular node; it just needs to exist as the entry point. I'll place it somewhere central to start, say, `[270, 320]` on the canvas, to give us room to expand.\n\nNow, once that's triggered, what's next? The prompt says to \"Connect this to a Redis node.\" This makes perfect sense; after the manual start, we immediately want to interact with Redis. So, the next node in line will definitely be a Redis node. The specific type I'm looking for is `n8n-nodes-base.redis`. Its `typeVersion` is also `1`, indicating a stable, commonly used version of the node. I'll drag that onto the canvas, probably to the right of the trigger node to maintain a left-to-right flow, so maybe `[470, 320]`.\n\nThe connection is vital here. The manual trigger's \"main\" output needs to feed into the Redis node's \"main\" input. This is a direct, linear flow, meaning that once the manual trigger fires, it will immediately pass execution to the Redis node. No special data transformations are needed at this stage; it's just about initiating the next step.\n\nNow, for the Redis node's configuration. The prompt specifies a few key things. First, the operation: it needs to \"perform a 'get' operation.\" So, I'll set the `operation` parameter of the Redis node to `\"get\"`. This tells the node precisely what action to take against the Redis server.\n\nNext, it mentions the key: \"for the key 'hello'.\" Simple enough, I'll set the `key` parameter to `\"hello\"`. This is the specific data entry we're trying to retrieve from Redis.\n\nFinally, and crucially, it specifies \"using the 'redis-docker_creds' credential.\" This means I need to link a pre-configured credential to this Redis node. I'd go to the `credentials` section of the Redis node's settings and select the one named `redis-docker_creds`. This credential would contain all the necessary connection details for our Redis instance, like its hostname, port, and any authentication information. It's good practice to keep sensitive details like connection strings or passwords abstracted away in credentials rather than hardcoding them in the workflow itself. As for `options`, the JSON shows an empty object, meaning no special options like database selection or connection timeouts are being explicitly set for this simple get operation, which is fine for our current goal.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow starts, triggers manually, then hits Redis to fetch the value associated with the key 'hello' using the specified connection details. Seems complete and perfectly matches the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers when a new customer is created in Shopify.

Then, it needs to take that customer's first name, last name, and email and push it into Mautic as a new contact. And, very importantly, there should be a little note in the workflow explaining how to add more fields to Mautic later.\n\n**First things first: The Trigger.**\nEvery workflow needs a starting point. What initiates this process? It's a \"new customer created in Shopify.\" For this, I immediately think of a trigger node. n8n has specific nodes for various services that can listen for events.\n\nLooking at the prompt, the obvious choice here is a **Shopify Trigger** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.shopifyTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Why this node?** This node is perfectly designed to act as a webhook listener for events happening within a Shopify store. It's the most direct way to get real-time notifications about new customers.\n\nNow, how would I configure this trigger?\n* I'd set the `Topic` parameter to `customers\/create`. This is crucial because it tells the node specifically to listen *only* for new customer creation events, not orders or product updates.\n* For `Authentication`, I'd select `accessToken`. This is the standard way to securely connect to Shopify's API from n8n. Of course, a `shopifyAccessTokenApi` credential would need to be set up in n8n itself, providing the necessary access token. I wouldn't put actual values here, but I know that's where a user would configure their secure connection details.\n\n**Next up: The Action.**\nOnce we get a new customer from Shopify, what do we need to do with that information? The prompt says \"create a contact in Mautic, mapping the customer's first name, last name, and email.\"\n\nThis clearly points to a Mautic integration. n8n has a dedicated node for Mautic, which is great.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.mautic`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Why this node?** This Mautic node provides actions for interacting with the Mautic API, including creating, updating, and searching for contacts. It's exactly what's needed for this step.\n\nNow, let's think about how this Mautic node connects and gets its data.\n* It definitely needs to be connected directly *after* the Shopify trigger. The `On new customer` node's main output should feed into the `Create contact` node's main input. This ensures that the data from the newly created Shopify customer is passed along.\n* For the `Create contact` operation, I'd need to map the fields. The prompt specifically asks for first name, last name, and email.\n * For the `Email` field, I'd use an expression to pull the email from the previous node's output. It would look something like `={{$node[\"On new customer\"].json[\"email\"]}}`. This ensures the customer's email from Shopify is dynamically inserted.\n * Similarly, for `First Name`, I'd map `={{$node[\"On new customer\"].json[\"first_name\"]}}`.\n * And for `Last Name`, `={{$node[\"On new customer\"].json[\"last_name\"]}}`.\n * The `Additional Fields` parameter would remain empty initially, as the prompt only specified these three.\n* Just like with Shopify, this node requires credentials. A `mauticApi` credential would be configured in n8n to connect to the Mautic instance. This is where the Mautic base URL and authentication details would reside, kept separate from the workflow itself for security.\n\n**Finally: The Sticky Note.**\nThe prompt has a very specific requirement: \"include a sticky note explaining how to add more Mautic fields.\" This is a purely informational element, critical for maintainability and user guidance.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.stickyNote`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Why this node?** It's literally designed for this purpose! It allows you to add text notes directly onto the workflow canvas, making the workflow easier to understand and manage for anyone who looks at it later. It doesn't process data or connect to other nodes functionally, it's just there for documentation.\n\nFor its configuration:\n* I'd give it some sensible `width` and `height` so it's readable on the canvas.\n* The most important part is the `Content`. I'd put the exact explanation requested: \"### Add more fields to Mautic\\nBy default, the first name, last name and email are pushed to Mautic. If you require more fields, add it in the `Create contact` node.\" This gives clear instructions right where someone might be looking to expand the workflow.\n\nThis completes all the requirements outlined in the prompt. The flow is logical: trigger, action, and helpful documentation." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'My Sub-Workflow 1'. It should start with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' connected to a 'No Operation' node named 'Replace me with your logic', and include repository details (owner: Misapr-bro, name: n8n_template, path: backup\/).", "json": "{\"name\": \"My Sub-Workflow 1\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When Executed by Another Workflow\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [260, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Replace me with your logic\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.noOp\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [520, 340]}], \"connections\": {\"When Executed by Another Workflow\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Replace me with your logic\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start conceptualizing this workflow. The request is pretty clear: an inactive n8n workflow, named 'My Sub-Workflow 1', designed to be triggered externally, and acting as a placeholder for future logic, all while being tied to a specific Git repository.\n\nFirst things first, I'll set up the workflow's fundamental properties. The prompt specifies it should be inactive, so I'll make sure the `active` flag is set to `false`. That's crucial for a workflow that's not yet ready to run, perhaps still under development or serving as a template. The name, \"My Sub-Workflow 1\", is also directly provided, so that goes into the `name` field. This name clearly indicates its purpose as a reusable component.\n\nThen there are the repository details: `repo_owner: Misapr-bro`, `repo_name: n8n_template`, and `repo_path: backup\/`. These are important for version control and organizational purposes, ensuring this workflow is properly tracked within its designated Git repository. It's good to have these right from the start.\n\nNow, onto the actual structure, the nodes themselves. The prompt tells me it needs to start with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger'. This is a very specific type of trigger, hinting strongly that this workflow is intended to be called by *another* n8n workflow, not by an external event like a webhook or a schedule. This makes perfect sense for something named a \"Sub-Workflow\".\n\nSo, I'll add the first node. Looking at the JSON, its name is `\"When Executed by Another Workflow\"`. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1.1`. This node is ideal because it creates an entry point for other workflows to execute this one, effectively turning it into a callable function or subroutine within the n8n ecosystem. As for its configuration, the `parameters` are an empty object (`{}`), which means it's a basic trigger; it's not configured to expect any specific input data or conditions from the calling workflow, just to be triggered. Its position `[260, 340]` indicates where it would visually sit on the canvas.\n\nNext, the prompt says this trigger should be \"connected to a 'No Operation' node named 'Replace me with your logic'\". This immediately tells me what the very next step in the workflow should be. The \"No Operation\" node is a fantastic choice here, and quite common for initial workflow scaffolding.\n\nSo, I'll bring in the second node. Its name is `\"Replace me with your logic\"`. The type is `n8n-nodes-base.noOp`. The `noOp` node is literally \"no operation\" \u2013 it doesn't perform any action, doesn't transform data, it simply receives input and passes it along. This is exactly what's needed for a placeholder. It allows the workflow to be runnable (though it won't do anything meaningful yet) and provides a clear visual cue for where the actual business logic will eventually be inserted. Similar to the trigger, its `parameters` are an empty object, as there's nothing to configure for a node that does nothing. Its position `[520, 340]` places it directly to the right of the trigger node, suggesting a logical flow.\n\nNow, for the crucial part: connecting these two nodes. The `connections` object in the JSON tells me exactly how they link up. It shows that `\"When Executed by Another Workflow\"` has a `main` output that connects to the input of `\"Replace me with your logic\"`. Specifically, it says: `{\"node\": \"Replace me with your logic\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}`. This means that when the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" is fired, its primary (main) output will flow directly into the primary (main) input of the \"No Operation\" node. This establishes the very basic, linear flow of execution: trigger, then a placeholder. Any data that the trigger might implicitly pass (even if it's just an empty item) will simply pass through the `noOp` node.\n\nThat pretty much covers the core requirements. The `createdAt` and `updatedAt` timestamps are standard metadata, just indicating when it was created and last modified. The `id` is a unique identifier, and `versionId` tracks its specific version. `settings: {\"executionOrder\": \"v1\"}` is a typical default setting for how n8n manages node execution order. `pinData` and `staticData` are empty as there are no complex UI layouts or static configurations specific to this workflow yet. `tags` is also empty, meaning no organizational tags have been applied, and `triggerCount` is `0`, which is expected for a newly created and inactive workflow. It feels complete for the initial setup." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON that manually triggers, then assigns the fields 'name'='caco', 'param'='2', and 'status'='full'.

Looking at the n8n nodes, the most straightforward choice for this is the **Manual Trigger** node.\n\nSo, I'd begin by dropping a `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node onto the canvas. Its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to start a workflow when someone clicks \"Execute Workflow\" or \"Test Workflow\" in the n8n UI. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters, so its `parameters` property will just be an empty object, `{}`. I'll name it \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", which is a very descriptive name for its function.\n\nNext, the prompt requires us to \"assign the fields 'name'='caco', 'param'='2', and 'status'='full'\". This sounds like we need to create or modify data that subsequent nodes can then use. For this kind of data manipulation\u2014specifically setting or overriding fields in the workflow's data stream\u2014the **Set** node is absolutely ideal.\n\nSo, I'll connect the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node's \"main\" output to the input of a new `n8n-nodes-base.set` node. This `set` node will have `typeVersion` `3.3`. I'll call this node \"Edit Fields\" as it directly reflects its purpose. Within its `parameters`, I'll configure the `assignments` property. I need to add three specific assignments:\n1. One for `name` with the `value` `caco`. I'll make sure its `type` is set to `string`.\n2. Another for `param` with the `value` `2`. Even though `2` is a number, the prompt and the JSON have it as a string, so I'll set its `type` to `string` to match.\n3. And finally, one for `status` with the `value` `full`, also configured as a `string` `type`.\nThis `set` node will take the empty data item from the manual trigger and enrich it with these three new fields, making them available for the next steps.\n\nThe next requirement is to \"execute an external workflow with ID 'vEm3SAapmMoorLeC'\". This is a very specific action: calling another workflow from within the current one. n8n has a dedicated node for this: the **Execute Workflow** node.\n\nSo, I'll connect the \"main\" output of my \"Edit Fields\" (Set) node to the input of a new `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow` node. This node will have `typeVersion` `1`. I'll name it \"Execute Workflow\". The crucial part of its configuration is specifying *which* workflow to execute. In its `parameters`, I'll find the `workflowId` field and input the exact ID provided: `vEm3SAapmMoorLeC`. This ensures that when this node runs, it will trigger that specific external workflow. The data from the \"Edit Fields\" node (containing 'name', 'param', and 'status') will be passed as input to that external workflow, which is exactly what we want.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that the workflow should end with a \"no operation\" step. This is a very clear instruction. While often not strictly necessary for workflow execution, a \"No Operation\" node can sometimes be used as a placeholder, a visual end marker, or a point to attach other temporary debugging steps during development.\n\nSo, I'll take the \"main\" output from the \"Execute Workflow\" node and connect it to a `n8n-nodes-base.noOp` node. This node has `typeVersion` `1`. I'll give it the descriptive name \"No Operation, do nothing\". As its name suggests, it performs no action and has no configurable parameters, so its `parameters` property is an empty object, `{}`. It simply receives the data and passes it through, effectively marking the end of this particular sequence in the workflow without doing anything further. And that completes the workflow as per the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFileAgentSim' that, when triggered by a webhook, reads a specified Google Doc and responds to the webhook with its content.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFileAgentSim\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"622eb756-9b7f-4404-8ce4-08dad5967e89\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1vouWvnpAOD8yhK4o_940_fZI9ruGuqQCiJefZ5216ow\/view\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow built. The request is pretty clear: we need a webhook-triggered workflow that reads a Google Doc and then sends that content back as the response.\n\nFirst things first, any workflow that's going to be triggered externally needs a way to listen for those triggers. So, the very first node we'll put down is going to be a webhook.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **Type Version**: `2`\n* **Why**: This node is perfect for receiving incoming HTTP requests, which is exactly how we want to trigger this workflow. It provides a unique URL that an external system can call to start the process.\n* **Configuration**:\n * I'd configure a `path` for the webhook. This is just a unique part of the URL that identifies *this specific* webhook endpoint. It's like giving it a street address.\n * For the `responseMode`, I'd set it to `responseNode`. This is important. If we chose `lastNode`, the webhook would respond immediately after the first node finishes, which isn't what we want. We need to fetch data *after* the webhook is triggered and *then* respond with that fetched data. So, by setting it to `responseNode`, we're telling the webhook to wait for a specific \"Respond to Webhook\" node later in the flow to send the final reply.\n\nAlright, so the webhook is set up to listen. What's next? The prompt says \"reads a specified Google Doc\". So, after the webhook fires, the next logical step is to interact with Google Docs.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`\n* **Type Version**: `2`\n* **Why**: This node is specifically designed for Google Docs operations. It allows us to perform various actions like creating, updating, or, in our case, reading documents.\n* **Connection**: This node will connect directly from the `main` output of our \"Webhook\" node. When the webhook receives a call, it will pass control to this Google Docs node.\n* **Configuration**:\n * The `operation` needs to be set to `get`. This tells the node we want to retrieve content from a document, not create or update one.\n * We'll need to specify the `documentURL`. This is crucial \u2013 it's how the node knows exactly which Google Doc to read. We'd put the full URL to the target document here.\n * And, of course, it requires credentials. We'd select or configure a Google Docs OAuth2 API credential. This credential handles the authentication with Google, ensuring our workflow has the necessary permissions to access the specified document. Without proper credentials, the node wouldn't be able to read the document.\n\nSo, now we've triggered the workflow and successfully read the content from the Google Doc. The last step, as per the request, is to \"respond to the webhook with its content.\" Since we set the initial webhook to `responseNode`, we need a dedicated node to handle that final response.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`\n* **Type Version**: `1.1`\n* **Why**: This node's sole purpose is to send a response back to the original webhook caller. It's the counterpart to the webhook node when `responseMode` is set to `responseNode`.\n* **Connection**: This node will connect from the `main` output of the \"Google Docs\" node. The data coming out of the Google Docs node will contain the content we just read, which we'll then use in our response.\n* **Configuration**:\n * For `respondWith`, we'll choose `text`. The request implies sending the document's content directly, so plain text is suitable. If we wanted structured data, we might choose JSON, but text is fine for content.\n * The `responseBody` is where the magic happens. The \"Google Docs\" node, when it successfully `gets` a document, typically outputs the document's text content under a property named `content`. So, we'll use an expression here: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression dynamically takes the value of the `content` field from the data that came from the previous Google Docs node and sends it as the body of our webhook response. This ensures that whatever text was in the Google Doc is what the original caller receives.\n * We could potentially add `options` like custom HTTP headers or a specific status code if needed, but for simply returning the document content, the default options are usually sufficient.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It's a neat, linear flow: trigger, fetch, respond." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON containing an Airtable node. Configure its 'application' parameter with the regex `https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})` and its 'table' parameter with the regex `https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})`, both using URL mode and set as dynamically referenced values, positioned at [380, 180].", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"application\": {\"__rl\": true, \"mode\": \"url\", \"value\": \"\", \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"}, \"table\": {\"__rl\": true, \"mode\": \"url\", \"value\": \"\", \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"}}, \"name\": \"Airtable\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.airtable\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [380, 180]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start conceptualizing this workflow. The main objective here is quite specific: we need to interact with Airtable, and crucially, extract information directly from Airtable URLs for both the base (what n8n often calls 'application') and the table within that base.\n\nSo, the first thing that comes to mind is, naturally, an Airtable node. This is the dedicated tool within n8n for communicating with the Airtable API, allowing us to perform operations like reading, writing, or updating records. Looking at the provided structure, it confirms my initial thought \u2013 we'll be using the `n8n-nodes-base.airtable` node. This node type is perfectly suited for the task at hand. It seems to be `typeVersion: 1`, which is generally a very stable and commonly used version for core nodes like this. If there were other versions, I might consider if certain features, like the regex-based URL parsing we need, are introduced or behave differently, but for now, version 1 is standard.\n\nNow, let's think about where this node should be placed on the canvas. The prompt specifies a position of `[380, 180]`. So, I'll visually place this Airtable node there, keeping the workflow organized and readable right from the start.\n\nNext, we need to configure this Airtable node. The prompt gives us very specific instructions for two key parameters: `application` and `table`.\n\nFirst, let's tackle the `application` parameter. This typically refers to the Airtable Base. The request is very clear: it needs to be configured with `mode: \"url\"`. This means we're not providing a direct Base ID or name, but rather a full Airtable URL from which the Base ID should be extracted. This is super handy if our input data, perhaps from a trigger node or a previous data processing step, provides Airtable share links or full record URLs.\n\nCoupled with `mode: \"url\"`, there's a specific `__regex` defined: `https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})`. This regex is designed to capture the Base ID. It looks for a URL starting with `https:\/\/airtable.com\/` and then captures any two or more alphanumeric characters immediately following it. This `([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})` part is the capturing group, which will extract the actual Base ID (e.g., `appXXXXXXXXXXXX`) from a URL like `https:\/\/airtable.com\/appXXXXXXXXXXXX`. The `__rl: true` property is essential here; it tells n8n to use this regex to \"resolve\" or extract the actual value from the input URL. The `value: \"\"` being empty confirms that this is meant to be a dynamic input, expecting a URL to come in and be processed by this regex. This setup avoids hardcoding and makes the workflow much more flexible.\n\nMoving on to the `table` parameter. Similar to the `application`, this also needs `mode: \"url\"`. This implies that the table's identity will also be derived from a URL, not a static name or ID. This approach maintains consistency with how the application ID is handled.\n\nThe `__regex` for the `table` parameter is `https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})`. This regex is a bit more specific. It expects a full Airtable URL that includes both the base ID and then the table ID or name. The `[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}` after `https:\/\/airtable.com\/` matches the Base ID part, and then the final `([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})` captures the Table ID or Table Name (e.g., `tblYYYYYYYYYYYY` or `Table%20Name`). This ensures that the input URL for the table is correctly structured within the context of a specific base. Again, `__rl: true` signals that this regex will be used for extraction, and `value: \"\"` indicates a dynamic input.\n\nSo, in essence, this Airtable node is configured to dynamically identify *both* the Airtable base and the specific table within that base by parsing incoming URLs using precise regular expressions. This is a very robust way to handle dynamic Airtable interactions where the target base and table might vary depending on the data flowing into the workflow. For the actual operation (like adding a row, getting records, etc.), you would then configure other parameters within this node, along with the necessary Airtable credentials, but the core setup for identifying the target location is handled by these `url` mode and `regex` configurations.\n\nAs for connections, the `connections` object is empty. This makes sense for a single node; it doesn't have any explicit connections to other nodes within this specific workflow fragment. If this were part of a larger system, I'd anticipate an upstream node providing the Airtable URLs that these regexes would process, and perhaps a downstream node to handle the results of the Airtable operation. But for now, it's a self-contained configuration of an Airtable node." } { "prompt": "Generate an N8n workflow that starts manually, creates mock data with multiple items containing an `amount_USD` property, and then uses a function node to sum these `amount_USD` values, outputting a single item with the `total_value`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [220, 80]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"\/\/ Code here will run only once, no matter how many input items there are.\\n\/\/ More info and help: https:\/\/docs.n8n.io\/nodes\/n8n-nodes-base.function\\n\\n\\nreturn [ { json: { amount_USD: 50 } }, { json: { amount_USD: 20 } }, { json: { amount_USD: 60 } } ];\"}, \"name\": \"Mock data\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.function\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [420, 80]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"\/\/ Code here will run only once, no matter how many input items there are.\\n\/\/ More info and help: https:\/\/docs.n8n.io\/nodes\/n8n-nodes-base.function\\n\\n\/\/Setup an empty variable to hold the count\\nlet total = 0;\\n\\n\/\/Loop over the incoming items of data\\nfor (item of items) {\\n \/\/For each item of data, add the amount_USD to our total counter\\n total += item.json.amount_USD;\\n}\\n\\n\/\/Returns a well formed JSON object with just the total_value .

The user prompt explicitly states \"starts manually.\" So, the very first node that comes to mind, and indeed the one in the JSON, is the 'Manual Trigger'.\n\nI'd pull in an 'On clicking 'execute'' node. This is a `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. It's perfect for initiating a workflow simply by clicking a button in the n8n UI. There are no specific parameters to configure for this node; its sole purpose is to act as the entry point when someone wants to run the workflow on demand.\n\nAlright, so once the workflow is triggered, what's next? The prompt asks for \"mock data with multiple items containing an `amount_USD` property.\" We need a way to generate this. Looking at the JSON, it uses a 'Function' node for this, which is a really flexible choice.\n\nSo, I'll add a 'Mock data' node right after our manual trigger. This will be a `n8n-nodes-base.function` node, also with `typeVersion: 1`. The connection will be straightforward: the 'On clicking 'execute'' node will connect its main output to the 'Mock data' node's main input.\n\nNow, let's think about how to configure this 'Mock data' function node. A Function node allows us to write custom JavaScript to manipulate or create data. To create multiple items, we need to return an array of objects. Each object in that array will become a separate item in n8n's data stream. The prompt specifies an `amount_USD` property. So, inside the `functionCode` parameter, I'll define an array of objects, like this: `[ { json: { amount_USD: 50 } }, { json: { amount_USD: 20 } }, { json: { amount_USD: 60 } } ]`. This effectively creates three separate items, each with its own `amount_USD`, which is exactly what we need for our mock data. Using a Function node here is great because if we ever wanted to generate more complex or dynamically structured mock data, we could easily adjust the JavaScript.\n\nWith our mock data generated, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"use a function node to sum these `amount_USD` values, outputting a single item with the `total_value`.\" This again points to another 'Function' node, as it requires custom logic to iterate and sum.\n\nSo, I'll add a 'Summing function' node. Again, this is a `n8n-nodes-base.function` node, `typeVersion: 1`. This node will connect directly from the 'Mock data' node's main output. The critical part here is understanding how data flows into this Function node. Since the 'Mock data' node outputs multiple items, this 'Summing function' node will receive all of those items in an array called `items` within its `functionCode` context.\n\nInside the `functionCode` of this 'Summing function' node, we'll need to implement the summation logic. First, I'll declare a variable, say `total`, and initialize it to `0`. Then, I'll loop through the `items` array. For each `item` in that array, I'll access its `json.amount_USD` property and add that value to our `total`. This is a standard aggregation pattern in JavaScript.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies \"outputting a single item with the `total_value`.\" So, after the loop finishes and we have our final `total`, the Function node needs to return a new array containing just one object, structured like `[ { json: { total_value: total } } ]`. This ensures that the workflow continues with a single item representing the aggregated result, rather than all the individual mock data items. This is a common pattern for aggregation where you consolidate multiple inputs into a single output summary.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. We've got a manual start, a way to generate our test data, and a custom function to process and summarize that data as required. The data flows smoothly from one node to the next, transforming from a trigger signal to multiple data items, and finally to a single summary item." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow titled 'whatsapp api'.

The prompt specifies that it should be titled 'whatsapp api' and be inactive. So, when I'm setting up the workflow shell, I'll ensure its name property is set to `whatsapp api` and its `active` status is `false`. That way, it won't run automatically until it's explicitly activated.\n\nNow, let's think about the actual flow of operations. The prompt says it should begin with a manual trigger node. This makes perfect sense for something I might want to test or initiate on demand.\n\nSo, the very first node I'll add to my canvas will be a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the standard way to kick off a workflow when you want direct control \u2013 like clicking a 'Test workflow' button in the n8n UI, as its default name \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" suggests. It doesn't need any special configuration for its parameters, as it simply acts as a starting point. It just needs to be there to get things going.\n\nNext, the prompt states that this manual trigger should connect to a WhatsApp Business Cloud node to send a message. So, the logical next step is to bring in the node responsible for interacting with WhatsApp.\n\nI'll drag and drop a **WhatsApp Business Cloud** node onto the canvas. From the JSON, I can see its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.whatsApp` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is specifically designed for sending and receiving messages via the WhatsApp Business Platform, which is exactly what's needed here. It's the go-to node for this kind of integration. I should also remember to name it something descriptive, like \"WhatsApp Business Cloud\", as seen in the JSON, which helps identify its purpose at a glance.\n\nNow, I need to connect these two nodes. The manual trigger needs to pass its execution to the WhatsApp node. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" (my Manual Trigger node) to the `main` input of the \"WhatsApp Business Cloud\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, the workflow proceeds directly to the WhatsApp action.\n\nWith the nodes in place and connected, it's time to configure the WhatsApp Business Cloud node to perform the specific action requested. The prompt requires sending a message.\n\nSo, within the WhatsApp Business Cloud node's parameters, I'll set the `operation` to `send`. This tells the node that its job is to send a message, not perform any other WhatsApp API operation like receiving or managing templates.\n\nThen, I need to specify *where* the message is coming from on the WhatsApp side. The JSON shows a `phoneNumberId` being configured. While I won't specify an actual ID, I understand that this is where I would select or input the specific WhatsApp Business API phone number ID that I'm using to send messages from. This is crucial for the WhatsApp platform to know which of my numbers is originating the message.\n\nNext, I need to define the recipient. The prompt explicitly states the recipient is \"919111711366\". So, in the `recipientPhoneNumber` parameter of the WhatsApp node, I will input \"919111711366\". This tells the node exactly who the message should be delivered to.\n\nAnd finally, the message content itself. The prompt specifies \"hetyyyy\". So, I'll input \"hetyyyy\" into the `textBody` parameter. This is where the actual message text that will be sent to the recipient goes.\n\nI'd also note that this node would require credentials to connect to the WhatsApp Business API. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"whatsAppApi\": {...}}`. This indicates that I would need to have a pre-configured WhatsApp API credential (like an access token) selected or set up for this node to authenticate properly with Meta's servers. I'd just select the appropriate credential set for WhatsApp Business API access. The `additionalFields` and `requestOptions` parameters are empty in the JSON, meaning no extra customizations are needed for this simple send operation, which is fine for this requirement.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it! The workflow is defined, inactive, named correctly, starts with a manual trigger, and sends the specified message to the specified recipient using the WhatsApp Business Cloud node." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that, on clicking 'execute', sends an email via Mandrill.

The user wants to send an email via Mandrill when they manually trigger the workflow. This gives me a good starting point for what I need.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way for the workflow to begin. The prompt specifically says \"on clicking 'execute'\", which immediately brings a particular node to mind. I'll start with an **n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger** node. This is the perfect fit because it allows the user to initiate the workflow directly from the n8n interface by simply clicking a button. It doesn't need any external events or schedules; it's purely for a manual kick-off. I'll give it a clear name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's obvious what it does. For this particular node, `typeVersion: 1` is what I'm looking at in the JSON, which is a standard version for this trigger and doesn't require any special parameters for its basic operation. It simply fires off an execution when clicked.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the core action is to send an email using Mandrill. So, my next logical step is to bring in the node that handles Mandrill interactions. That would be an **n8n-nodes-base.mandrill** node. I'll call this \"Mandrill\" for simplicity, keeping its function clear.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The \"On clicking 'execute'\" node needs to tell the \"Mandrill\" node to perform its action. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the `main` input of the \"Mandrill\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, it passes control (and potentially data, though not much is needed for this simple case) directly to the Mandrill node, telling it to execute.\n\nWith the Mandrill node in place, I need to configure it based on the user's requirements. The prompt specifies several key pieces of information:\n\n* **Recipient Email:** \"The email should be sent to 'user@example.com'\". So, I'll set the `toEmail` parameter in the Mandrill node to this value. This is a direct mapping from the requirement to the node's configuration.\n* **Sender Email:** \"from 'example@yourdomain.com'\". Similarly, the `fromEmail` parameter will be set to this specified sender address.\n* **Email Template:** \"using the 'welcomeemailv2' template\". Mandrill relies heavily on templates for its email sending, so I need to specify the `template` parameter with 'welcomeemailv2'. This tells Mandrill which pre-designed email structure and content to use.\n* **Credentials:** \"using 'mandrill_creds' credentials\". This is crucial for authentication. Mandrill needs to know *who* is sending the email. I'll configure the `credentials` block for the Mandrill node, specifically setting the `mandrillApi` field to reference `mandrill_creds`. This isn't the actual API key itself, but rather a reference to a pre-configured credential set within n8n that holds the necessary authentication details, like an API key. This keeps sensitive information secure and separate from the workflow definition.\n* **Options:** The JSON shows an empty `options` object. This means for this specific setup, no additional, more granular Mandrill API options, such as specific `merge_vars` if I were passing dynamic data into the template, or `tags`, are needed. It's a straightforward template send.\n\nThe `typeVersion` for the Mandrill node is `1`, which is the current version I'm using, and it supports all these parameters as expected. If I were on an older version, some parameters might be named differently or not exist, but for `typeVersion: 1`, this setup is standard.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it. The manual trigger starts the process, and the Mandrill node handles all the email sending details, connecting seamlessly to achieve the user's goal. No other nodes are required for this specific request." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'AWSSES - demo' that uses a manual trigger to send an email via the AWS SES node, with the subject \"Hola\", body \"Es una prueba\", from \"tu@correo.com\" to \"wocap86140@perceint.com\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"AWSSES - demo\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"subject\": \"Hola\", \"body\": \"Es una prueba\", \"fromEmail\": \"tu@correo.com\", \"toAddresses\": [\"wocap86140@perceint.com\"], \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"AWS SES\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.awsSes\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [260, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AWS SES\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed.

It just acts as the initiator. Its `parameters` object would remain empty, just its default settings.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next logical step is to perform the action: sending the email. The prompt is very specific about using \"AWS SES\". This immediately points me to the dedicated `AWS SES` node within n8n.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `Manual Trigger` to an `AWS SES` node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.awsSes`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Reasoning:** This node is chosen because the requirement is to send an email specifically through Amazon Simple Email Service (SES). It provides the necessary fields to configure the email sending parameters directly within the node.\n* **Connections:** The `Manual Trigger` node's main output should connect to the `AWS SES` node's main input. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, it passes control (and any default data) to the `AWS SES` node, telling it to execute. The `Manual Trigger` basically just starts the chain reaction here.\n* **Configuration:** Now, this is where most of the specific details come into play. The prompt provides all the necessary information:\n * **Subject:** \"Hola\". This goes directly into the `subject` parameter of the `AWS SES` node.\n * **Body:** \"Es una prueba\". This maps to the `body` parameter.\n * **From Email:** \"tu@correo.com\". This will be set in the `fromEmail` parameter. It's crucial that this email address is verified in your AWS SES account for the sending to be successful.\n * **To Address:** \"wocap86140@perceint.com\". This is configured in the `toAddresses` parameter, which is an array because SES can handle multiple recipients.\n * **Additional Fields:** The prompt doesn't specify any CC, BCC, Reply-To, or other custom headers, so the `additionalFields` parameter would remain empty.\n* **Credentials:** Crucially, for the `AWS SES` node to work, it needs AWS credentials configured in n8n. The JSON indicates that a set of generic \"AWS credentials\" would be linked to this node. These credentials would typically contain an AWS Access Key ID and Secret Access Key, which grant n8n permission to interact with your AWS account and send emails via SES. Without these, the node wouldn't be able to authenticate with AWS.\n\nAnd that's it! A straightforward, two-node workflow. The `Manual Trigger` starts it, and the `AWS SES` node performs the core action, configured with all the specified email details.

Looking at the prompt, the core idea is to have two distinct entry points, both time-based, that then feed into a common processing step where we can identify which entry point was used.\n\nSo, the first thing that comes to mind is setting up the triggers. We need two of them, and they're specified as 'Schedule Trigger' nodes. That's pretty straightforward. I'll start with the first one.\n\nI'll add a `Schedule Trigger` node. This node type is perfect for starting workflows at predefined times or intervals, which aligns exactly with the \"Schedule Trigger\" requirement. Its `typeVersion` is `1.2` as per the JSON. I'll name this one 'Trigger A'. For its configuration, the JSON shows `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This means it's set up with a very basic, unconfigured interval. In a real-world scenario, I'd go into its parameters and define whether it should run every hour, daily, or on a custom cron schedule, but for now, the default empty interval is what the JSON specifies.\n\nNext, I need the second trigger. It's essentially the same type of node, another `Schedule Trigger` (type `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`, typeVersion `1.2`). I'll place it separately, as it's an independent starting point. This one will be named 'Trigger B'. Just like 'Trigger A', its schedule configuration is also `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`, indicating a default or empty interval, which I'd configure properly if this were a live workflow to specify when it actually fires.\n\nNow that I have my two triggers, I need a node that both of them connect to. The prompt specifies a 'Set' node, named 'Edit Fields'. This makes sense because the goal is to set a new field called 'prevNode'. A `Set` node (type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, typeVersion `3.4`) is designed precisely for adding, renaming, or modifying data fields on incoming items. It's a very versatile node for data transformation. I'll name it 'Edit Fields'.\n\nThe critical part of this 'Edit Fields' node is its configuration. It needs to set a string field called 'prevNode' to the name of the previous node. Inside the Set node's parameters, specifically under 'Assignments', I'd add a new assignment. The name for this new field will be 'prevNode', and its type is specified as `string`. For the value, the JSON provides `={{ $prevNode.name }}`. This is an n8n expression. `$prevNode` is a global variable available within n8n workflows that refers to the node that immediately preceded the current node in the execution path. By accessing its `.name` property, we can dynamically retrieve the name of the node that sent data into 'Edit Fields'. So, if 'Trigger A' fires, `$prevNode.name` will resolve to \"Trigger A\"; if 'Trigger B' fires, it will resolve to \"Trigger B\". This is a very clever way to identify the source.\n\nFinally, I need to connect everything. Both 'Trigger A' and 'Trigger B' need to connect to the 'Edit Fields' node. For 'Trigger A', I'll draw a connection from its main output (index 0) to the main input (index 0) of the 'Edit Fields' node. This means when 'Trigger A' runs, the data it produces will flow directly into 'Edit Fields' for processing. Similarly, for 'Trigger B', I'll connect its main output (index 0) to the very same main input (index 0) of 'Edit Fields'. This creates a converging flow where data from either trigger can be processed by the 'Edit Fields' node, and the `$prevNode.name` expression will correctly identify which trigger sent the data. This structure perfectly aligns with the requirements of having two entry points feeding into a single processing step." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger. It should then create a Sentry.io release, followed by retrieving all Sentry.io releases, using the 'sentry' API credential for both Sentry nodes.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [210, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"\", \"version\": \"0.0.1\", \"projects\": [\"\"], \"resource\": \"release\", \"operation\": \"create\", \"additionalFields\": {}, \"organizationSlug\": \"\"}, \"name\": \"Sentry.io\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.sentryIo\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [410, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"release\", \"operation\": \"getAll\", \"returnAll\": true, \"additionalFields\": {}, \"organizationSlug\": \"\"}, \"name\": \"Sentry.io1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.sentryIo\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [610, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Sentry.io\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Sentry.io1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Sentry.io\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is quite clear: we need a workflow that kicks off manually, then interacts with Sentry.io to create a release, and immediately after that, fetches all releases from Sentry.io. Both Sentry.io operations need to use a specific credential.\n\nSo, the very first thing we need is a way to start this whole process. The prompt explicitly says \"starts with a manual trigger.\" Perfect, that tells me exactly what the initial node should be. I'll search for a trigger node that can be initiated by a user click. The `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node is the one for this, it's straightforward and designed for exactly that. I'll add that to the canvas first, placing it conveniently at the beginning. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is standard for this node; typically, a base node like this doesn't have many breaking changes across minor versions, so `typeVersion 1` is usually stable. This node doesn't require any specific parameters to be set; its purpose is simply to start the execution flow when manually triggered.\n\nNow that we have our starting point, what's next? The prompt says \"It should then create a Sentry.io release.\" This immediately points me to the Sentry.io node. I'll need to find the `n8n-nodes-base.sentryIo` node. This is the dedicated integration for Sentry.io, which is exactly what we need for interacting with their API. I'll drag that onto the canvas right after our manual trigger.\n\nOnce I have the Sentry.io node, I need to configure it. The prompt specifies \"create a Sentry.io release.\" So, within the Sentry.io node's parameters, I'd look for the `resource` option, and for this, I'll select `release`. Then, for the `operation`, I'd pick `create`. This tells the node precisely what action to perform on the Sentry.io platform.\n\nThere are a few other parameters I'd expect to configure for creating a release, like `url` for the release, and `version`. The JSON shows `url` as empty and `version` set to `0.0.1`. These would be dynamic values in a real-world scenario, often derived from previous nodes (like a build system providing a version number) or set as static initial values. Also, `projects` would need to be specified \u2013 which Sentry projects this release applies to. The JSON shows an empty string in `projects`, which would need to be populated with actual project slug(s) in a functional workflow. And crucially, `organizationSlug` must be provided so Sentry knows which organization the release belongs to. This would be a string representing the organization's slug.\n\nThe prompt also states \"using the 'sentry' API credential for both Sentry nodes.\" So, for this first Sentry.io node, under the `credentials` section, I would select or specify the credential named 'sentry' for the `sentryIoApi` field. This ensures the node authenticates correctly with Sentry.io. The `typeVersion` for this node is also `1`, indicating a stable and commonly used version of the Sentry.io integration.\n\nNow that we've got the first Sentry.io node configured to create a release, the prompt says \"followed by retrieving all Sentry.io releases.\" So, the logical next step is to add another Sentry.io node. I'll connect the output of our \"create release\" Sentry.io node to the input of this new \"get all releases\" Sentry.io node. This ensures that the retrieval operation only happens *after* the release has been successfully created.\n\nFor this second `n8n-nodes-base.sentryIo` node, the configuration will be slightly different. The `resource` will still be `release`, because we're dealing with releases. But this time, the `operation` will be `getAll`, as we want to retrieve all of them. To make sure we actually get *all* releases and not just a paginated subset, I'll enable the `returnAll` option. This is a crucial setting to ensure the workflow retrieves every available release from Sentry.io, not just the first page of results.\n\nSimilar to the previous Sentry.io node, `organizationSlug` needs to be provided for this node as well, identifying which organization's releases we want to retrieve. And sticking to the prompt's requirement, this node also needs to use the same 'sentry' API credential. So, under `credentials`, I'd again select 'sentry' for the `sentryIoApi` field. Its `typeVersion` is also `1`, matching the previous Sentry.io node, which is good for consistency.\n\nFinally, regarding connections:\n* The `On clicking 'execute'` (manual trigger) node's `main` output connects to the `main` input of the first `Sentry.io` node (the one for creating a release). This makes sure the creation process starts when the trigger fires.\n* The `Sentry.io` (create release) node's `main` output then connects to the `main` input of the `Sentry.io1` (get all releases) node. This sequential connection ensures that the workflow first creates the release and then proceeds to fetch all releases, making sure the newly created one is potentially included in the retrieved list.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers all the requirements for this workflow. We've got the trigger, the creation, the retrieval, and the correct credential usage, all connected in the right order." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Sales' that consists solely of a manual trigger node titled 'When clicking 'Test workflow''.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Sales\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 320]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so the goal here is pretty straightforward: create an n8n workflow named 'Sales' that basically just starts when you tell it to. It's meant to be super simple, just a manual trigger.\n\nFirst off, I need to think about what kind of node kicks off a workflow. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger node.\" That makes my initial choice very clear. I'll go for the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. This node is exactly what I need when I want to initiate a workflow directly by clicking a \"Test workflow\" button, rather than having it react to an external event like a new email or a scheduled time. It's ideal for testing or for workflows that are meant to be run on demand. The `typeVersion` for this node is `1`, which is the current common version I'd be working with. I don't anticipate any issues with this version for such a basic function; if there were more complex features, I might check for later versions to see if they offer improvements, but for just firing, version 1 is perfectly adequate.\n\nNow, once I've decided on the `manualTrigger` node, I need to configure it. The prompt also specifies the title of this trigger node: \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\". So, I'll set the `name` property of this node to exactly that. This makes it very clear to anyone looking at the workflow how it's intended to be started. As for its `parameters`, a manual trigger typically doesn't need any special configuration\u2014it just triggers. So, an empty `parameters` object `{}` is exactly what I'd expect here. There's no data to pre-load or specific options to select; it simply acts as a start button.\n\nSince the prompt states the workflow \"consists solely of a manual trigger node,\" I know I don't need to add any other nodes after it. There won't be any connections between nodes because it's a standalone component. The `connections: {}` in the provided JSON confirms this; there are no lines drawing from one node to another. This keeps the workflow incredibly lean, just fulfilling the minimum requirement of a manual start. It's a foundational piece, ready to have more nodes added later if the 'Sales' workflow were to expand beyond just being a trigger. But for now, it's just the one, single, manual starting point." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, retrieves up to 10 people using the \"Customer Datastore\" node's `getAllPeople` operation, and then uses a \"Set\" node to add `objectValue.prop1` as a number (123) and `objectValue.prop2` as a string (\"someText\") with dot notation enabled.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\", \"limit\": 10}, \"name\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop1\", \"value\": 123}], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop2\", \"value\": \"someText\"}]}, \"options\": {\"dotNotation\": true}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1080, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 440]}], \"connections\": {\"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's break down how I'd approach building this n8n workflow, thinking step by step, just like I'm sitting down to design it.\n\nFirst off, looking at the user's request, the very first thing that jumps out is how the workflow needs to begin: \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This makes my initial choice super clear.\n\nSo, the first node I'd reach for would be the **Manual Trigger** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and it's `typeVersion: 1`.\n* Why this one? Well, the prompt explicitly asks for a manual trigger. This node is perfect for situations where I want to initiate the workflow simply by clicking a button in the n8n UI, whether for testing or for a one-off execution. It doesn't need any external event to kick it off, which simplifies things immensely for a starting point like this. I don't really need to configure any specific parameters for it; its default state of just triggering when activated is exactly what's needed.\n\nNow that the workflow can be started, what's the next step? The prompt says: \"retrieves up to 10 people using the \"Customer Datastore\" node's `getAllPeople` operation.\" This immediately tells me what node to connect next and how to configure it.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `main` output of my `Manual Trigger` node to the input of a **Customer Datastore (n8n training)** node.\n* This node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n* The reason I choose this node is straightforward: the prompt specifically names it and indicates it's used for retrieving \"people\" from a \"Customer Datastore.\" It's essentially the interface to that particular data source.\n* For its configuration, the prompt specifies two key things:\n * The `operation` needs to be `getAllPeople`. I'd select this from the available operations in the node's settings. This tells the node *what* to do with the datastore.\n * It also states \"up to 10 people,\" which translates directly to setting the `limit` parameter to `10`. This ensures I don't try to pull an excessive number of records if the datastore has many more, keeping the processing focused as requested.\n\nWith the data retrieved, the final part of the prompt is: \"then uses a \"Set\" node to add `objectValue.prop1` as a number (123) and `objectValue.prop2` as a string (\"someText\") with dot notation enabled.\" This points directly to my third and final node.\n\nI'd take the `main` output from the `Customer Datastore` node, which will contain the retrieved people (up to 10 of them), and connect it to the input of a **Set** node.\n* This node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n* The `Set` node is ideal here because its primary purpose is to add, modify, or remove data properties on incoming items. The goal is to *add* new properties to each person record, so this is exactly the right tool.\n* Now, for its parameters, this is where it gets interesting:\n * I need to add two new properties. The first is `objectValue.prop1` as a number with a value of `123`. I'd go into the \"Set\" node's values, choose to add a \"Number\" field, and for the \"Name\" (or key) of this field, I'd type `objectValue.prop1`. Then, I'd input `123` as its value.\n * The second property is `objectValue.prop2` as a string with a value of `\"someText\"`. Similarly, I'd add a \"String\" field, name it `objectValue.prop2`, and set its value to `someText`.\n * Crucially, the prompt mentions \"with dot notation enabled.\" This is a specific option within the \"Set\" node, usually found under \"Options.\" I must ensure that the \"Dot Notation\" toggle is turned on. This allows the node to interpret `objectValue.prop1` not as a literal string key, but as a path to create a nested object `objectValue` with a property `prop1` inside it. If this wasn't enabled, it would just create a single top-level property named \"objectValue.prop1\", which isn't what's desired for creating a nested structure.\n\nAnd that pretty much completes the workflow as per the prompt. The data flows from the trigger, to the data retrieval, and then finally to the data manipulation, adding the specified properties to each item." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger. Connect it to an AWS SNS node configured to publish a message with the topic \"n8n-rocks\", message \"This is a test message\", and subject \"This is a test subject\", using \"aws\" credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"topic\": \"n8n-rocks\", \"message\": \"This is a test message\", \"subject\": \"This is a test subject\"}, \"name\": \"AWS SNS\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.awsSns\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AWS SNS\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this n8n workflow. The goal here is pretty clear: we need a workflow that kicks off manually and then publishes a specific message to an AWS SNS topic.\n\nFirst things first, how do we get this workflow to start? The user prompt explicitly states \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me my very first building block.\n\nSo, I'd bring in the **Manual Trigger node**.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`.\n* And for `typeVersion`, we're looking at `1`.\n* Why this node? It's the simplest way to initiate a workflow for testing, development, or when you simply want to run it on demand from the n8n UI. It doesn't require any complex setup or external events, just a click. Its `parameters` are empty, which is completely expected for a basic manual trigger \u2013 it just needs to fire. I'd position it at a good starting point on the canvas, perhaps somewhere around [250, 300] to give us room for subsequent nodes.\n\nNext, what's the core action we need to perform? The prompt says \"Connect it to an AWS SNS node configured to publish a message...\" This tells me exactly what our second node needs to be.\n\nSo, I'd add an **AWS SNS node**.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.awsSns`.\n* And its `typeVersion` is also `1`.\n* Why this node? Because we need to interact with AWS Simple Notification Service to publish a message. This node type is purpose-built for that. It abstracts away all the complexities of the AWS API, letting us just focus on what we want to publish. I'd place it to the right of our manual trigger, ready to receive its input, say around [450, 300].\n\nNow, let's configure this AWS SNS node based on the requirements.\n* For `parameters`, the prompt is very specific:\n * The `topic` should be `\"n8n-rocks\"`. This is crucial because SNS needs to know which subscription list to send the message to.\n * The `message` content is specified as `\"This is a test message\"`. This will be the actual body of the notification.\n * And a `subject` is also provided: `\"This is a test subject\"`. This is useful for identifying the message, especially if it's being delivered via email or similar protocols where a subject line makes sense.\n* Finally, for `credentials`, the prompt clearly states \"using 'aws' credentials\". So, I'd make sure to link a credential set named `\"aws\"` to this node. This is where the actual AWS access keys and secret keys would be securely stored in n8n, allowing this node to authenticate with AWS without exposing the sensitive information directly in the workflow definition.\n\nNow that both nodes are in place and configured, we need to connect them. The `manualTrigger` simply needs to initiate the `awsSns` node. It doesn't pass any specific data that the `awsSns` node relies on for its operation, as all the necessary information (topic, message, subject) is already statically configured within the `awsSns` node itself.\n\nSo, I'd draw a connection from the \"main\" output of the `manualTrigger` node (named \"On clicking 'execute'\") to the \"main\" input of the \"AWS SNS\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, the workflow flow proceeds directly to the AWS SNS node, causing it to execute its publishing action. The `connections` definition would reflect this straightforward flow: `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AWS SNS\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`.\n\nAnd that's it! A simple, two-node workflow that fulfills all the requirements, starting with a manual trigger and publishing a message to AWS SNS with precise details." } { "prompt": "Generate JSON for a new, inactive workflow named 'My workflow'. Its `createdAt` and `updatedAt` timestamps should be '2025-03-24T09:59:55.402Z', and all other arrays, objects, and metadata fields should be empty or null.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow\", \"nodes\": [], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed and set up. The request is quite specific: a new, inactive workflow called 'My workflow', with particular timestamps and a requirement for all other structures to be empty or null. This sounds like we're setting up the foundational metadata for the workflow itself, rather than diving into specific automation logic yet.\n\nSo, when I think about an n8n workflow, the first thing that comes to mind is its overall definition \u2013 the wrapper that contains everything else. This is where we define its core properties before we even think about individual nodes.\n\nThe very first thing I need to establish is the workflow's identity and state. The prompt clearly states it should be named \"My workflow\". So, right at the top level of my workflow definition, I'll set the `name` property to `\"My workflow\"`. Simple enough.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"inactive workflow\". This maps directly to the `active` property in n8n's workflow JSON. If it's inactive, it means it won't run until manually enabled. So, I'll set `active: false`. This is a critical initial state.\n\nThen, timestamps. The prompt provides exact `createdAt` and `updatedAt` values: \"2025-03-24T09:59:55.402Z\". These are standard ISO 8601 formatted strings. So, I'll populate both `createdAt` and `updatedAt` with that exact string. This ensures the workflow's lineage is correctly recorded from the moment of its conceptual creation.\n\nNow, let's address the structural components, particularly those that need to be \"empty or null\".\n\nFirst, the actual *work* of the workflow happens within `nodes`. The prompt doesn't specify any operations, and it states all other arrays should be empty. So, for `nodes`, I'll define it as an empty array: `nodes: []`. This means the workflow is currently just a shell, an empty canvas waiting for automation steps. There's no particular node type to consider here yet because there are no nodes at all.\n\nFollowing closely are the `connections`. If there are no nodes, there can be no connections between them. The prompt also requires objects to be empty. So, `connections: {}` is the logical choice. This is an empty object, indicating no defined data flow paths.\n\nThen there's `meta`. This typically holds arbitrary metadata about the workflow, perhaps a description or some notes. The prompt specifies \"metadata fields should be empty or null\". `meta: null` fits this requirement perfectly, indicating no additional custom metadata is attached at this point.\n\nSimilarly, `pinData` is related to how nodes might be \"pinned\" or visually arranged in the n8n UI. Since we have no nodes, and the requirement is for null or empty values, `pinData: null` makes sense here.\n\nThe `settings` object is where workflow-level configurations like error workflows or timezone are usually defined. Again, the prompt dictates \"empty or null\" for other objects. So, `settings: {}`\u2014an empty object\u2014is appropriate. This means we're using all default workflow settings.\n\n`staticData` is another field that can hold data, often used with form nodes. With no specific functionality or nodes requested, `staticData: null` aligns with the \"empty or null\" requirement.\n\n`tags` is an array for categorization, making workflows easier to find and organize. The prompt requires \"empty or null\" for arrays. So, `tags: []` (an empty array) is correct, meaning this new workflow doesn't belong to any specific category yet.\n\nFinally, `triggerCount` is a system-maintained counter. Since this is a new, inactive workflow with no nodes, it logically hasn't been triggered yet. So, `triggerCount: 0` is the correct initial state.\n\nThere are also `id` and `versionId` properties in the provided JSON. These are system-generated unique identifiers. When building a workflow from scratch, these would typically be assigned by the n8n platform itself upon creation or import. While the prompt doesn't explicitly mention them, they are essential for the workflow's unique identification within the system. I wouldn't be generating specific values for these myself as a designer; rather, I'd expect the platform to provide them. However, since they are present in the example JSON, I'd acknowledge their role as system-assigned unique identifiers that complete the workflow's technical definition. They are crucial for distinguishing this 'My workflow' from any other 'My workflow' that might exist in the system or even different versions of this same workflow over time." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow using Bubble nodes to first create a 'Doc' named 'Bubble', then update this created 'Doc's name to 'Bubble node', and finally retrieve the details of that same 'Doc'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"typeName\": \"Doc\", \"operation\": \"create\", \"properties\": {\"property\": [{\"key\": \"Name\", \"value\": \"Bubble\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Bubble\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.bubble\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 280]}, {\"parameters\": {\"objectId\": \"={{$json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\", \"typeName\": \"={{$node[\\\"Bubble\\\"].parameter[\\\"typeName\\\"]}}\", \"operation\": \"update\", \"properties\": {\"property\": [{\"key\": \"Name\", \"value\": \"Bubble node\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Bubble1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.bubble\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 280]}, {\"parameters\": {\"objectId\": \"={{$node[\\\"Bubble\\\"].json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\", \"typeName\": \"={{$node[\\\"Bubble\\\"].parameter[\\\"typeName\\\"]}}\"}, \"name\": \"Bubble2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.bubble\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [850, 280]}], \"connections\": {\"Bubble\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Bubble1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Bubble1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Bubble2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants to interact with Bubble to create a \"Doc\", then update it, and finally retrieve its details. This sounds like a straightforward sequence of operations, so I'll be thinking about a linear flow of nodes, where the output of one node feeds into the next.\n\nThe first step is always about creation. We need to create a \"Doc\" and name it \"Bubble\". Since we're dealing with Bubble, the natural choice is the Bubble node itself. I see in the JSON that the first node is indeed a `n8n-nodes-base.bubble` node, and its `typeVersion` is 1. This is perfect for interacting with the Bubble API.\n\nSo, I'll start by adding a Bubble node. I'll call it \"Bubble\" as per the JSON. For its operation, I need to create a new item, so I'll set the `operation` parameter to `create`. The user specified a \"Doc\", so the `typeName` will be \"Doc\". And for the name, they want \"Bubble\", so I'll add a property called \"Name\" and set its value to \"Bubble\". Of course, for this to actually work, I'd need to make sure the Bubble API Credentials are properly set up; that's a crucial part of any Bubble integration.\n\nNext, after creating the \"Doc\", the user wants to *update* its name to \"Bubble node\". This means I need another Bubble node, but this time for an update operation. This second node, named \"Bubble1\" in the JSON, is also a `n8n-nodes-base.bubble` node with `typeVersion` 1. It makes sense to connect it directly to the first \"Bubble\" node, so the output from the creation step can be passed as input to this update step.\n\nThe key thing for an update operation is knowing *which* item to update. The \"Bubble\" (create) node, when successful, will output the `id` of the newly created \"Doc\". I need to capture that `id` and feed it into this \"Bubble1\" node's `objectId` parameter. Looking at the JSON, it uses `objectId: =\"={{$json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\"`. This is a common and effective way to pass the `id`. It assumes that the output from the previous node (the \"Bubble\" create node) will be an object where the ID is directly accessible as `json.id`. This is typically what a create operation returns.\n\nFor the `typeName`, I could hardcode \"Doc\" again, but it's much better practice to make workflows robust. The JSON shows `typeName: =\"={{$node[\\\"Bubble\\\"].parameter[\\\"typeName\\\"]}}\"`. This dynamically pulls the `typeName` from the *first* \"Bubble\" node's configuration. This is excellent; it ensures consistency and means if I ever change the type name in the first node, the update node automatically adjusts.\n\nThe `operation` for this node will be `update`. And the user wants to change the name to \"Bubble node\", so I'll add a property \"Name\" with the value \"Bubble node\".\n\nFinally, the user wants to *retrieve* the details of that same \"Doc\". This means a third Bubble node. In the JSON, it's called \"Bubble2\", again a `n8n-nodes-base.bubble` node with `typeVersion` 1. I'll connect \"Bubble1\" to \"Bubble2\" to maintain the linear flow.\n\nFor this `retrieve` operation, I again need the `objectId` of the \"Doc\" we've been working with. The JSON uses `objectId: =\"={{$node[\\\"Bubble\\\"].json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\"`. This is slightly different from how `Bubble1` got its ID. Instead of relying on the *immediate* previous node's output (`{{$json[\"id\"]}}`), it specifically references the `id` from the *first* \"Bubble\" node's output (`{{$node[\"Bubble\"].json[\"id\"]}}`). This is a very robust approach, ensuring we always reference the ID of the *original* item created, even if the intermediate update node's output structure might differ or not directly pass the original ID forward. It's a good defensive design choice.\n\nSimilar to the update node, the `typeName` is pulled dynamically: `typeName: =\"={{$node[\\\"Bubble\\\"].parameter[\\\"typeName\\\"]}}\"`. This again helps keep the workflow consistent and easy to maintain. The `operation` for this last node will be `retrieve`.

The goal is to generate a workflow that manually triggers, fetches all people from a specific datastore, and then passes that output to a Set node that includes all other fields.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt specifies a \"manual trigger,\" which is perfect. Looking at the JSON, the first node defined is indeed a manual trigger. So, I'll begin there.\n\nI'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is named \"When clicking \u2018Execute workflow\u2019\". This is the most straightforward way to initiate a workflow directly from the n8n UI, which aligns perfectly with the \"manual trigger\" requirement. There aren't many configuration options for this node, as its primary purpose is just to kick off the workflow when a user clicks the \"Execute workflow\" button in the editor or the \"Run workflow\" button when it's active. It simply provides an empty input item to start the flow.\n\nNext, the prompt says we need to \"fetch all people from a 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node.\" This tells me exactly what the next step should be. I'll need to connect an output of my trigger node to this new data fetching node.\n\nSo, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` with `typeVersion: 1`. I'll name it \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" as specified. This particular node type is designed to interact with a training customer datastore, making it ideal for the prompt's requirement. The crucial part for this node is its configuration. The prompt explicitly says \"fetches all people,\" so I'd set the `operation` parameter to `getAllPeople`. This ensures the node retrieves all available customer records from that datastore, which is exactly what we need for this workflow. I'll connect the `main` output of the \"When clicking \u2018Execute workflow\u2019\" node to the `main` input of this \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the very next action is to go and fetch all those customer records.\n\nFinally, the prompt states, \"and then passes the output to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields' which includes all other fields.\" This clearly dictates the last node and its connection.\n\nSo, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.4`. I'll name it \"Edit Fields.\" The Set node is excellent for manipulating data items, whether it's adding new fields, removing existing ones, or, as in this case, just passing them through while perhaps applying some minor transformations or simply ensuring all fields are preserved. The prompt specifically mentions \"which includes all other fields.\" Looking at the JSON, this translates directly to the `includeOtherFields` parameter being set to `true`. This is very important. If `includeOtherFields` were `false`, and no specific `assignments` were made, the Set node would output nothing or only the fields explicitly defined in `assignments`. By setting it to `true`, it ensures that *all* fields from the incoming data items (which are the customer records fetched by the previous node) are passed through to the output, even if we're not adding or changing any specific ones with the `assignments` array, which is empty in this case. This configuration makes the Set node act as a pass-through filter that guarantees all existing data is retained. I will connect the `main` output of the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node to the `main` input of this \"Edit Fields\" node. This ensures that the customer data retrieved by the datastore node is directly fed into the Set node for final processing or just to ensure all fields are explicitly included in the output. And that completes the workflow based on the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that manually triggers, fetches up to 10 customer records from a training datastore, and then sets new properties `objectValue.prop1` to 123 (number) and `objectValue.prop2` to 'someText' (string) using dot notation.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\", \"limit\": 10}, \"name\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop1\", \"value\": 123}], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop2\", \"value\": \"someText\"}]}, \"options\": {\"dotNotation\": true}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1080, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 440]}], \"connections\": {\"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants a workflow that starts manually, grabs customer data, and then adds some specific new properties to that data using dot notation.\n\nFirst things first, how does this workflow get kicked off? The prompt clearly states it needs to \"manually trigger\". So, the very first node I need is a trigger node, and specifically one that I can just click a button to run.\n\nLooking at the available nodes, the `Manual Trigger` node is perfect for this. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and it's `typeVersion` 1. I'll place that down. Its default name, \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", is perfectly descriptive for what it does, so no need to change that. It doesn't require any specific configuration; it just waits for a manual kick-off.\n\nNext, once it's triggered, what's the immediate action? The prompt says \"fetches up to 10 customer records from a training datastore\". This tells me I need a node that can interact with some kind of customer data source, and specifically a \"training datastore\".\n\nI'd look through the available integrations or built-in nodes. Ah, there's an `n8n Training Customer Datastore` node. That sounds exactly like what's needed for a training environment. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`, `typeVersion` 1.\n\nNow, how do I configure this \"Customer Datastore\" node? The prompt specifies \"fetches up to 10 customer records\". So, the operation needs to be a \"get all\" or \"list\" type of operation, and there should be a limit. I see in the `parameters` for this node, `operation` is set to `getAllPeople`, which is exactly what I'd choose to fetch records. And, crucially, `limit` is set to `10`. This directly fulfills the requirement of fetching \"up to 10\" records. Perfect.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The manual trigger should initiate the data fetching. So, the `manualTrigger` node (my \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node) should connect its \"main\" output to the \"main\" input of the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node. This ensures that when I click \"Test workflow\", the very next step is to retrieve the customer data.\n\nAlright, I've got the trigger and the data fetching in place. What's the final piece of the puzzle? The prompt states, \"then sets new properties `objectValue.prop1` to 123 (number) and `objectValue.prop2` to 'someText' (string) using dot notation.\" This sounds like a data manipulation step, where I'm adding or modifying fields on the incoming items.\n\nThe `Set` node is the standard go-to for adding, removing, or changing properties on items in n8n. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and `typeVersion` 1. This is definitely the right choice.\n\nNow, let's configure this `Set` node. The prompt specifies two properties:\n1. `objectValue.prop1` to 123 (number)\n2. `objectValue.prop2` to 'someText' (string)\nAnd crucially, \"using dot notation\".\n\nSo, in the `parameters` for the `Set` node, I need to add these values. I'll go to the \"Add Value\" section.\nFor `objectValue.prop1`, since it's a number, I'd add a \"Number\" field. The `name` of this field would be `objectValue.prop1`, and its `value` would be `123`.\nFor `objectValue.prop2`, since it's a string, I'd add a \"String\" field. The `name` of this field would be `objectValue.prop2`, and its `value` would be `'someText'`.\n\nAnd to make sure `objectValue.prop1` and `objectValue.prop2` are interpreted as nested properties rather than literal top-level keys, I need to enable the \"Dot Notation\" option. I see in the `parameters`, `options` has `dotNotation` set to `true`. This is essential for the properties to be created correctly as nested objects.\n\nFinally, the connection for this `Set` node: it needs to operate on the data fetched by the \"Customer Datastore\" node. So, the \"main\" output of `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` should connect to the \"main\" input of the `Set` node. This ensures that the records retrieved are passed directly to the `Set` node, where the new properties will be added to each of them.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers all the requirements.

It also needs some specific tags.\n\nMy initial thought is always, \"What's the very first thing that needs to happen to kick this off?\" The prompt clearly states it \"uses a webhook... to trigger.\"\n\nSo, the very first node I'd reach for is a **Webhook** node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the `typeVersion` is `2`. This is the standard way to expose an HTTP endpoint that can start a workflow execution.\n* Now, how do I configure it? The prompt specifies the path: `onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/VPNUsage`. So, I'd set the `path` parameter to that exact string.\n* Next, I need to consider the response. The prompt says \"responds to the webhook with that document's content.\" This tells me the *triggering* webhook itself shouldn't send an immediate, fixed response. Instead, another node *later* in the workflow will handle the response. So, I'd set the `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node to wait for a subsequent \"Respond to Webhook\" node to send the actual reply. This is crucial for workflows where you need to perform actions *before* responding.\n\nAlright, the workflow is triggered. What's the next step? The prompt says it \"fetches content from the Google Doc at...\" This immediately tells me I need something that can interact with Google Docs.\n\nSo, I'd add a **Google Docs** node right after the Webhook.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and the `typeVersion` is `2`. This node is purpose-built for Google Docs operations.\n* How do I connect it? Naturally, the Google Docs operation should happen *after* the webhook has been received, so I'd connect the `main` output of the Webhook node to the `main` input of the Google Docs node. This ensures the data flow is sequential.\n* Now for configuration. The goal is to *fetch* content. Looking at the operations available for the Google Docs node, \"get\" is the most appropriate `operation` here. It's designed to retrieve document details and content.\n* The prompt also provides a specific document URL. So, I would configure the `documentURL` parameter with that provided URL. (I'd be careful not to reveal the actual URL in my thought process here, just acknowledge that *a* document URL would go there).\n* Finally, to access any Google service, I'd need credentials. So, I'd ensure that a Google Docs OAuth2 API `credentials` setup is linked to this node. This allows n8n to authenticate and access the document.\n\nSo now, we have the trigger, and we've fetched the document content. The last piece of the puzzle is to \"respond to the webhook with that document's content.\"\n\nThis means I need a node specifically for sending a response back to the original caller of the webhook. That's where the **Respond to Webhook** node comes in.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, and the `typeVersion` is `1.1`. This node pairs perfectly with a Webhook node set to `responseMode: responseNode`.\n* How does it connect? It needs the data *from* the Google Docs node, specifically the content that was just fetched. So, I'd connect the `main` output of the Google Docs node to the `main` input of the Respond to Webhook node.\n* Now, for configuration. The prompt says \"that document's content.\" The Google Docs \"get\" operation usually returns the document content in a specific field, often named `content`. So, I would want to set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`, as we're likely sending the plain text (or rich text rendered as plain) content of the document.\n* Then, for the `responseBody`, I would use an expression to extract that content. Based on typical n8n node outputs, an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` would be used. This tells n8n to take the `content` field from the data that the previous Google Docs node outputted and use that as the body of the response.\n\nFinally, I'd double-check the workflow's overall settings, ensuring the `name` is \"GetOnboardingFile VPN usage\" and that the `tags` specified (\"Lg\", \"Day 2\", \"Files\", \"Onboarding\") are correctly applied to the workflow. These are more for organization and searchability within n8n.

The user prompt clearly states \"manually triggered.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that allows for direct execution by a user. Looking through the available n8n nodes, the `Manual Trigger` node is the perfect fit. It's designed specifically for this purpose, providing a simple \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n UI.\n\nSo, I'd drag and drop a `Manual Trigger` node onto the canvas. I'll name it something descriptive like \"On clicking 'execute'\", which aligns with its function. This node is pretty straightforward; it doesn't really need any specific parameters to be configured in this basic scenario. It simply acts as the starting point. I see its `typeVersion` is `1`, which indicates it's a standard, stable version of this node. I wouldn't expect its behavior to change much across minor versions for such a fundamental node.\n\nNext, what's the core action this workflow needs to perform? It needs to \"send an email.\" This points directly to the `Email Send` node. This is a standard n8n node designed specifically for dispatching emails. I'd place this node directly after the `Manual Trigger` node.\n\nNow, I need to connect these two nodes. The `Manual Trigger` node just needs to signal to the `Email Send` node that it's time to run. A simple \"main\" connection from the `Manual Trigger`'s output to the `Email Send`'s input is sufficient. The `Manual Trigger` doesn't pass any data that the `Email Send` node needs for its operation; it just initiates the flow.\n\nWith the `Email Send` node in place, the next step is to configure its parameters based on the user's specific requirements.\n* The prompt specifies the email subject as \"n8n rocks!\". So, I'll go into the `Email Send` node's settings and find the 'Subject' parameter, where I'll input \"n8n rocks!\".\n* The body of the email is \"This is a message to demonstrate the n8n Send Email workflow!\". This will go directly into the 'Text' parameter of the node.\n* For the sender and recipient, the prompt gives us specific addresses. The 'From Email' parameter will be set to 'user@from.email', and the 'To Email' parameter will be set to 'user@example.com'.\n* I also notice an `options` parameter with `allowUnauthorizedCerts: false`. This means the workflow will enforce secure certificate validation when connecting to the SMTP server. This is a good default for security, ensuring that the connection is trusted.\n\nFinally, and crucially, the user prompt states that the workflow should \"require SMTP credentials.\" The `Email Send` node is designed to handle this by linking to pre-configured credentials stored securely within n8n. Instead of embedding sensitive details directly in the workflow, I'd simply select an existing SMTP credential. For this workflow, it's just indicated generically as `your@smtp_creds.here`, meaning a valid SMTP credential would need to be selected or created beforehand in the n8n environment. This keeps the workflow definition clean and secure.\n\nThe `typeVersion` for the `Email Send` node is also `1`, indicating it's a current and stable version, which is what I'd always aim for unless a specific newer feature was required.\n\nThat pretty much covers it. The `Manual Trigger` starts the process, and the `Email Send` node, configured with all the specific details and connected to SMTP credentials, handles the email dispatch. The flow is simple and direct, fulfilling all the requirements of the prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger named 'When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019'.

The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger named 'When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019'\". So, my initial thought is to place a trigger node. Looking at the available node types, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` seems perfect for this. It's designed to be initiated by a user clicking a button, which aligns perfectly with \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\". I'll pick `typeVersion: 1` as indicated in the provided structure. Its name, \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", is explicitly given, so that's a straightforward configuration. No other parameters are needed for a basic manual trigger; it just starts the execution. So, I'll place this node as the very first one.\n\nNext, the prompt says this manual trigger \"should connect to a 'Gmail' node configured for the 'get' operation\". This tells me exactly what the next step is. I'll need a node that can interact with Gmail, and the `n8n-nodes-base.gmail` node type is the obvious choice here. For its version, `typeVersion: 2.1` is what's specified, so I'll go with that. The prompt also explicitly states it needs to be configured for the 'get' operation. This means within the Gmail node's parameters, I'll set the `operation` property to `get`. This operation usually means we're trying to retrieve something, like emails, labels, or messages. The node is named \"Gmail\", so that's easy enough to assign.\n\nNow, I need to make sure the data flows correctly. The output from the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node needs to go into the \"Gmail\" node. So, I'll draw a connection from the \"main\" output of the `manualTrigger` node to the \"main\" input of this first `gmail` node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, it proceeds directly to try and get information from Gmail.\n\nThe prompt then specifies that this first Gmail node \"then connects to another unnamed Gmail node also configured for the 'get' operation.\" This means I need a second `gmail` node. Again, I'll use `n8n-nodes-base.gmail` with `typeVersion: 2.1`. Just like the first one, it needs to be configured for the 'get' operation, so its `operation` parameter will also be set to `get`. The prompt says it's \"unnamed\", so I'll leave its `name` property blank. Interestingly, in the connections, n8n often defaults to naming unnamed nodes based on their type and order (e.g., 'Gmail1' if 'Gmail' is already taken), even if the `name` property itself is empty. So, I'll anticipate that internally it might be referred to as \"Gmail1\" in the connection data, given that the previous node is explicitly named \"Gmail\".\n\nFinally, I need to connect the first \"Gmail\" node to this second, unnamed \"Gmail\" node. The output from the first `gmail` node, typically containing the results of its 'get' operation, should feed into the input of the second `gmail` node. So, I'll establish a connection from the \"main\" output of the first \"Gmail\" node to the \"main\" input of this second, unnamed `gmail` node (which is referred to as \"Gmail1\" in the connection definition, even though its name property is empty). This flow implies that the second Gmail node might operate on or further process the data retrieved by the first Gmail node, or perhaps perform another independent 'get' operation following the completion of the first.

The `connections` in the JSON confirm this: the `manualTrigger` node (named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\") connects its `main` output to the `main` input of the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node. This means when the workflow starts, the trigger will pass its (empty) output to the datastore node, telling it to run.\n\nNow, how do I configure this \"Customer Datastore\" node to \"retrieve the first 10 people\"?\nLooking at the JSON, under its `parameters`:\n* There's an `operation` parameter set to `\"getAllPeople\"`. This is exactly what I need to fetch a list of people from the datastore.\n* And critically, there's a `limit` parameter set to `10`. This perfectly matches the requirement to retrieve \"the first 10 people.\" So, I'll configure the node with these settings.\n\nFinally, the prompt states: \"and subsequently set `objectValue.prop1` to `123` (number) and `objectValue.prop2` to `someText` (string) using dot notation.\" This tells me the final action and the node to use.\n\n### Set Node\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThe `Set` node is ideal for adding new fields or modifying existing ones on the incoming data. I'll connect this `Set` node to the output of the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node. The `connections` in the JSON confirm this: the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node's `main` output connects to the `main` input of the \"Set\" node. This ensures that the data (the first 10 people) retrieved from the datastore will be passed directly into the `Set` node for modification.\n\nNow, for the configuration of the `Set` node's `parameters`:\nThe prompt asks to set two specific properties: `objectValue.prop1` and `objectValue.prop2`. It also specifies their types and values, and importantly, mentions \"using dot notation.\"\n\n* I see a `values` object, which contains `number` and `string` arrays. This is where I'll define the new properties.\n* For `objectValue.prop1` which is a `123` (number), I'll add an entry under `values.number`. The `name` will be `\"objectValue.prop1\"` and the `value` will be `123`.\n* For `objectValue.prop2` which is `\"someText\"` (string), I'll add an entry under `values.string`. The `name` will be `\"objectValue.prop2\"` and the `value` will be `\"someText\"`.\n* The critical part about \"dot notation\" is handled by the `options` object. The JSON shows `options.dotNotation: true`. This setting is vital because it tells the `Set` node to interpret property names like `\"objectValue.prop1\"` as nested paths, rather than creating a single flat property named `objectValue.prop1`. If this weren't set to true, it would create a property with a literal name including the dot, which isn't what we want for nested objects.\n\nWith these configurations, the workflow should correctly:\n1. Start when triggered manually.\n2. Retrieve the first 10 customer records.\n3. Add or update `objectValue.prop1` and `objectValue.prop2` within each of those records, utilizing dot notation for proper object nesting.\n\nThis sequence of nodes and their specific parameters precisely fulfills all the requirements laid out in the user prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a POST Webhook node (ID: `23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201`) and connects it to a Set node.

The user wants something pretty specific: it needs to start with a POST Webhook and then connect directly into a Set node. Plus, there's some very handy sample test data for the webhook, which is great for understanding what kind of input to expect.\n\nSo, first things first, a workflow always needs a starting point. The prompt explicitly says \"starts with a POST Webhook node,\" and the JSON confirms this is the first node.\n\n**Node 1: Webhook**\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n\nThis is the perfect choice for kicking off a workflow that needs to react to an external event, like an incoming HTTP request. It's essentially waiting for something to happen on a specific URL.\n\nNow, how would I configure it based on the prompt and the provided JSON?\nThe prompt specifies it should be a `POST` Webhook. So, I'd go into the node's settings and set the `httpMethod` parameter to `POST`. This ensures it only triggers when a POST request is sent to its URL, not a GET or PUT.\n\nNext, the prompt gives a very specific ID: `23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201`. This ID is typically used to form the unique path for the webhook URL. So, I'd put that into the `path` parameter. This means the webhook will respond to requests sent to a URL like `[your_n8n_instance_url]\/webhook\/[this_id]`. It's crucial for making sure the correct workflow gets triggered.\n\nThe prompt also includes sample webhook test data: a JSON body of `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`. When this webhook node runs in test mode or receives an actual request, this JSON body would arrive as the `body` property of the data payload. This is super helpful for understanding the structure of the data the workflow will be working with right from the start. The `pinData` section in the JSON clearly shows this sample body, confirming how the data would look inside n8n after the webhook receives it. It's a clean, simple JSON object, ready to be processed by subsequent nodes.\n\nAlright, so the Webhook node is set up to listen for POST requests at its specific path and capture the incoming JSON body. What's next? The prompt says it \"connects it to a Set node.\"\n\n**Node 2: Set**\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n\nThe Set node is incredibly versatile. Its primary purpose is to modify, add, or remove data fields from the incoming items. In this particular case, the JSON shows its parameters as `{\"options\": {}}`. This means it's not actually adding, removing, or changing any specific fields. It's essentially acting as a passthrough node, taking whatever data comes from the Webhook node and passing it along without modification. This is perfectly valid and sometimes done either as a placeholder for future logic or simply to demonstrate a basic flow of data from one node to the next.\n\n**Connections:**\nThe connection is straightforward: the `Webhook` node's main output connects directly to the `Set` node's main input. This means all the data received by the Webhook (headers, query parameters, and most importantly, the `body` containing `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`) will be passed directly as input to the Set node. The Set node will then receive that data and, because it's not configured to do anything specific, will simply output the exact same data.\n\nThis setup creates a simple, two-node workflow. The Webhook acts as the trigger, and the Set node receives and passes the data. It's a fundamental building block for many n8n workflows." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"GetMemory\" that uses a webhook trigger at the path `\/GetMemory` to retrieve content from the Google Doc located at `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1BvJFzEBew0ExBGfj0jUO2OSevJxJ5PB5I_jtEXwK7iQ\/edit?usp=drivesdk` and respond to the webhook with the document's content.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetMemory\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"GetMemory\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1BvJFzEBew0ExBGfj0jUO2OSevJxJ5PB5I_jtEXwK7iQ\/edit?usp=drivesdk\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow. The main goal here is to set up an n8n workflow that listens for a specific incoming request, goes and fetches some content from a Google Doc, and then sends that content back as a response.\n\nSo, the very first thing we need is a way to trigger this whole process externally. The prompt specifically mentions a webhook trigger.\n\n* **Node 1: Webhook**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` (typeVersion 2)\n * **Reasoning:** This is the ideal node to start a workflow based on an incoming HTTP request. It acts as the entry point, listening for requests at a specified URL path. Since the user prompt specifies a webhook at `\/GetMemory`, this is precisely what we need.\n * **Configuration:**\n * The `path` parameter needs to be set to `GetMemory`. This ensures that when a request hits the n8n instance at `\/webhook\/GetMemory`, this particular workflow gets activated.\n * The `responseMode` is set to `responseNode`. This is crucial because we don't want the Webhook node itself to immediately send a static response. Instead, we want another node later in the workflow to handle the actual response, using data gathered from subsequent steps. This allows us to retrieve the Google Doc content *before* responding.\n\nAlright, so we've got our trigger in place. Now, what's the next logical step? The prompt says \"retrieve content from the Google Doc.\"\n\n* **Node 2: Google Docs**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` (typeVersion 2)\n * **Reasoning:** To interact with Google Docs, this dedicated node is the most straightforward and secure way. It provides specific operations for documents.\n * **Connection:** This node should naturally follow the Webhook node. So, we'll connect the `main` output of the \"Webhook\" node to the `main` input of this new \"Google Docs\" node. This means that once the webhook is triggered, the execution flow moves directly to trying to get the document content.\n * **Configuration:**\n * The `operation` parameter needs to be set to `get`. This tells the node we want to retrieve the content of a document, not create, update, or delete one.\n * A `documentURL` parameter would be configured here. This is where the specific URL of the Google Doc would be entered.\n * Crucially, this node requires authentication. It specifies `credentials` as `googleDocsOAuth2Api`. This means the node will need valid Google API credentials, likely an OAuth2 setup, to be able to access the specified Google Doc. Without proper permissions, it won't be able to fetch the content.\n\nOkay, we've triggered the workflow, and we're now getting the content from the Google Doc. The final part of the prompt is to \"respond to the webhook with the document's content.\"\n\n* **Node 3: Respond to Webhook**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` (typeVersion 1.1)\n * **Reasoning:** This node is specifically designed for sending a response back to the originating webhook trigger. It's the perfect companion to a Webhook node that has its `responseMode` set to `responseNode`.\n * **Connection:** This node must receive the output from the \"Google Docs\" node, as it needs the retrieved content to send back. So, we'll connect the `main` output of the \"Google Docs\" node to the `main` input of this \"Respond to Webhook\" node. This ensures that the response is only sent *after* the document content has been successfully fetched.\n * **Configuration:**\n * The `respondWith` parameter is set to `text`. This indicates that the response body will be plain text. We could choose JSON or a file, but plain text seems most appropriate for just returning the document content.\n * The `responseBody` parameter is critical. It uses an expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This is how we dynamically insert the retrieved Google Doc content into the response. The \"Google Docs\" node, when performing a `get` operation, typically outputs the document's content under a field like `content` in its JSON output. This expression directly references that field from the previous node's output, ensuring the document's text is what gets sent back to the original caller of the webhook.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It's a clear, linear flow: trigger, fetch, respond." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, posts a tweet with the text 'This is a test workflow for the twitter node', using 'twitter-credentials'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"This is a test workflow for the twitter node\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Twitter\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.twitter\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Twitter\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think about how we'd build this n8n workflow from scratch. The goal here is pretty clear: we need a workflow that can be manually started and then, as a result, posts a specific tweet.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need to figure out is *how* this workflow is going to kick off. The prompt specifically says \"when manually triggered.\" That immediately tells me I'll need a trigger node that allows for manual execution. Looking at the available nodes, the `manualTrigger` node is the perfect fit for this. It's designed precisely for scenarios where a user explicitly clicks a button to start the workflow. I'd typically place it on the left side of my canvas, as it's the starting point. The JSON confirms this choice, using `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. For a simple manual trigger, there aren't usually any complex parameters to set, and indeed, the `parameters` object is empty in the JSON, which makes perfect sense. It's just there to provide that \"start\" button.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, what's the next step? The prompt states \"posts a tweet with the text 'This is a test workflow for the twitter node'.\" This means I'll need a node that can interact with the Twitter API. Naturally, the `Twitter` node comes to mind. I'd drag that onto the canvas right after my `manualTrigger`. The JSON confirms this as well, showing a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.twitter` and `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The `manualTrigger` just needs to pass control to the `Twitter` node. It doesn't really pass any specific data in this scenario, just the signal to proceed. So, I'd draw a connection from the `main` output of the `manualTrigger` node to the `main` input of the `Twitter` node. This is a standard simple flow connection, ensuring that when the trigger fires, the Twitter node is executed. The `connections` part of the JSON clearly shows this: `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Twitter\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This confirms that the output of the manual trigger goes directly into the input of the Twitter node.\n\nWith the nodes in place and connected, the next crucial step is configuring the `Twitter` node. What does it need to know to post the tweet?\nFirst, the *action* it needs to perform. In this case, it's posting a tweet. The n8n Twitter node usually has different operations like \"Tweet,\" \"User,\" \"Direct Message,\" etc. I'd select \"Tweet\" and then the \"Create\" operation, though the JSON simplifies it by just showing the `text` parameter directly, implying the default or most common operation for the Twitter node is to create a tweet when text is provided.\n\nSecond, the *content* of the tweet. The prompt specifies \"This is a test workflow for the twitter node.\" So, I'd input that exact text into the `text` field within the `parameters` of the Twitter node. The JSON reflects this perfectly: `\"text\": \"This is a test workflow for the twitter node\"`. There's also an `additionalFields` object, which is currently empty. This is where I might configure things like media attachments, reply IDs, or other advanced tweet options, but for a simple text tweet, it's not needed, so leaving it empty is correct.\n\nFinally, and critically, how does the `Twitter` node authenticate with Twitter? The prompt mentions using \"'twitter-credentials'.\" This means the workflow needs to reference a pre-configured credential set in n8n. In the node's configuration, I'd select the appropriate credential entry. The JSON confirms this with `\"credentials\": {\"twitterOAuth1Api\": \"twitter-credentials\"}`. This tells the node to use the credential named \"twitter-credentials\" which would hold the necessary API keys and tokens to interact with Twitter securely. I wouldn't specify the actual keys here, just the name of the credential entry that's already set up in the n8n environment.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it. A simple trigger, a single action node, a direct connection, and the necessary configuration for the action and its authentication. This covers all the requirements from the prompt using the specified nodes and connections." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Search DB\" that starts with a trigger.

The user's request is quite specific: \"Create an n8n workflow named \"Search DB\" that starts with a trigger. The next step should be an \"Edit Fields\" node that sets a field named \"response\" to the string \"10 results found\".\"\n\nFirst off, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick things off. The prompt explicitly states it should \"start with a trigger.\" Looking at the JSON, the very first node defined is named \"Execute Workflow Trigger.\" This makes perfect sense. It's a fundamental trigger node, specifically of `type: n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`. This type of trigger is quite versatile; it allows the workflow to be executed manually or via an external call like a webhook, making it a good general-purpose starting point when the exact trigger mechanism isn't specified beyond \"a trigger.\" Its parameters are empty, which is typical for a basic workflow trigger, meaning it just waits for an execution command. So, that's our initial node, the foundation of the workflow.\n\nNow, what's next? The prompt says \"The next step should be an 'Edit Fields' node that sets a field named 'response' to the string '10 results found'.\" This tells me exactly what I need to do with the data, or rather, what data I need to *create*. I need a node that can manipulate or create data fields. Looking at the JSON, the second node is indeed named \"Edit Fields.\" Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is `3.4`. This `Set` node (often labeled \"Edit Fields\" in the UI) is perfect for this task because its primary function is to add, modify, or remove data fields on items as they pass through the workflow. If I needed more complex data manipulation or to integrate with external systems, I might consider other nodes, but for simply setting a static field, `Set` is the most direct and efficient choice.\n\nLet's think about how to configure this \"Edit Fields\" node. The requirement is to set a field named \"response\" to \"10 results found.\" So, within the parameters of the \"Edit Fields\" node, I'd look for an \"assignments\" section. And there it is in the JSON: `assignments: [{ \"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"10 results found\", \"type\": \"string\" }]`. This configuration perfectly matches the requirement. It tells the `Set` node to add a new field (or overwrite an existing one, though in this case, it's new data coming from the trigger) called `response`, set its `value` to `10 results found`, and specifies that this value is a `string`. The `id` is just an internal identifier for that specific assignment within the node's configuration. The `options` sub-parameter is empty, meaning no advanced options like `Keep Only Set` or `Forward All Input` are enabled, which is fine for this simple use case.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. Data flows from the trigger to the data manipulation step. In the `connections` section of the JSON, it shows `Execute Workflow Trigger: {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This indicates that the \"main\" output of the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node connects to the \"main\" input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This is the standard data flow path in n8n \u2013 the items produced by the trigger will then be processed by the \"Edit Fields\" node. This connection ensures that as soon as the workflow is triggered, the \"Edit Fields\" node receives an item (or items, depending on the trigger's output) and can then apply its configured field setting.\n\nAnd, of course, the overall workflow needs a name, which the prompt specified as \"Search DB\". The JSON confirms this with `\"name\": \"Search DB\"`. The `active: false` simply means the workflow isn't currently turned on, and `settings` like `executionOrder: v1` are standard internal configurations." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a Function node named \"Mock Data\" that outputs a single item with a `json` property containing an array like `['item-1', 'item-2', 'item-3', 'item-4']`.

The prompt says we need to create an n8n workflow that starts with a Function node to generate some mock data, and then another Function node to process that data by mapping array elements into separate output items. This gives me a clear two-step process.\n\nSo, for the very first step, I need a node that can output some specific, pre-defined data. The prompt explicitly states it should be a \"Function node named 'Mock Data'\" and that it needs to output a single item with a `json` property containing a specific array: `['item-1', 'item-2', 'item-3', 'item-4']`.\n\nA Function node is absolutely perfect for this. It allows me to write custom JavaScript to generate any data structure I need right at the start of the workflow. I don't need to fetch data from an external source or do any complex processing yet; I just need to create it.\n\nSo, I'll add a Function node. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.function`, and looking at the provided JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1`. This version is standard and works well for this purpose.\n\nNow, for configuring this \"Mock Data\" Function node. The key here is its `functionCode` parameter. I need to return an array of items, and each item should have a `json` property that contains the specified array. So, the code would be `return [{json: [\"item-1\", \"item-2\", \"item-3\", \"item-4\"]}];`. This directly creates the desired output structure: one item, and within that item, a `json` field holding our array. Simple and effective. I'll also ensure its `name` property is set to \"Mock Data\" as requested.\n\nAlright, the first node is set up to generate our initial data. Now, the prompt says to \"Connect this to a second Function node named 'Function' that maps each element of the input array into a separate output item, where each item has a `json.data` property.\"\n\nSo, the next logical step is to add that second Function node. Again, a Function node (`n8n-nodes-base.function`, `typeVersion: 1`) is a great choice here because it gives me full control over transforming the incoming data using JavaScript. While there might be other ways to split items (like a Split In Batches node) and then transform them (with a Set node), using a Function node for both the iteration and transformation in one go is very efficient, especially when the transformation logic is straightforward.\n\nBefore I configure it, I need to make sure the connection is right. The \"Mock Data\" node's output needs to feed into the \"Function\" node's input. Looking at the JSON, it confirms this: `{\"Mock Data\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Function\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the main output of \"Mock Data\" goes into the main input of \"Function\". This is the standard way nodes connect.\n\nNow, let's configure this second \"Function\" node. Its `name` should be \"Function\". The core logic again goes into its `functionCode` parameter.\n\nThe goal is to take the array from the previous node, iterate over it, and for each element, create a *new* output item. Each new item should have a `json.data` property containing the element's value.\n\nHow do I access the input data from the previous node in a Function node? The `items` variable holds the input items. Since the \"Mock Data\" node outputs a single item, `items[0]` will give me that first (and only) item. Within that item, the array we want is under the `json` property, so `items[0].json` will give me `['item-1', 'item-2', 'item-3', 'item-4']`.\n\nNow, to iterate and transform, the `map` array method in JavaScript is perfect. It lets me transform each element of an array into a new array of transformed elements. So, `items[0].json.map(item => { ... })` will iterate through 'item-1', 'item-2', etc.\n\nInside the `map` callback, for each `item` (e.g., 'item-1'), I need to return a new object that represents the output item. This new item needs a `json.data` property. So, the structure will be `return { json: { data: item } }`.\n\nPutting it all together, the `functionCode` for the \"Function\" node will be:\n```javascript\nreturn items[0].json.map(item => {\n return {\n json: {\n data: item\n },\n }\n});\n```\nThis code will take the single input item containing the array, transform it into multiple output items (one for each element of the array), with each new item correctly structured with a `json.data` property.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the requirements and the provided JSON structure." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow starting with a \"When chat message received\" trigger, followed by two \"Set\" nodes: \"Node 1\" which outputs `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`, and \"Node 2\" which outputs `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"When chat message received\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [320, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_1\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_2\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [580, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_3\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_4\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, -380]}], \"connections\": {\"When chat message received\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Node 1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed.

This is ideal because it's designed to listen for incoming chat messages, which aligns perfectly with the starting point of the user's request. No special parameters seem to be configured beyond the default options, which is fine for a basic trigger \u2013 it'll just wait for any chat message to come in.\n\nOnce that chat message is received, what's next? The prompt says \"followed by two 'Set' nodes\". So, my immediate thought is to connect the output of the \"When chat message received\" trigger to the first \"Set\" node.\n\nLet's look for that first \"Set\" node in the JSON. Ah, here it is: \"Node 1\". It's a `type` of `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is 3.4. The Set node is an excellent choice here. Its primary purpose is to create or modify data, and it's perfect for injecting fixed JSON payloads into the workflow, exactly what the prompt asks for. I need to make sure the connection is right \u2013 the \"When chat message received\" node's `main` output should connect to \"Node 1\"'s `main` input. The JSON confirms this connection is set up correctly.\n\nNow, for configuring \"Node 1\". The prompt specifies that \"Node 1\" should output `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`. So, I need to make sure this JSON is put directly into the node's output. The `set` node has different modes, but `raw` mode with `jsonOutput` is exactly what I need for a fixed JSON structure. Looking at the JSON, I see `parameters: {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_1\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_2\\\": 1\\n}\\n\"}`. This is perfectly configured. It will simply create a new item with this exact JSON structure as its output, which is exactly what we want from \"Node 1\".\n\nAlright, so the first \"Set\" node is done. Now for the second one. The prompt says \"followed by two 'Set' nodes\", so the next node after \"Node 1\" should be another \"Set\" node. I'll connect the `main` output of \"Node 1\" to the `main` input of this second \"Set\" node.\n\nChecking the JSON for this second node... Yes, \"Node 2\" is here. It's also a `type` of `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion` 3.4, just like \"Node 1\". This consistency is good, as it means we're using the same reliable node for similar data manipulation tasks. The connection from \"Node 1\" to \"Node 2\" is also correctly specified in the `connections` block.\n\nFinally, for \"Node 2\"'s configuration. The prompt states it should output `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`. Similar to \"Node 1\", I'll use the `raw` mode and populate the `jsonOutput` parameter. The JSON shows `parameters: {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_3\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_4\\\": 1\\n}\\n\"}`. This is exactly right. So, after \"Node 1\" outputs its data, \"Node 2\" will take that item (or items, though in this case, it's just one) and then output its *own* specific JSON structure. It essentially adds a new, distinct piece of data to the workflow's item stream. The chain is complete: trigger, then the first fixed JSON, then the second fixed JSON. Looks solid." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON named \"ReadPDF\" (ID \"104\", inactive).

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to read a PDF file from the file system and then parse its content. The user wants this workflow named \"ReadPDF\" and to be inactive initially, with a specific ID.\n\nFirst off, every n8n workflow needs a starting point. So, the very first node I'll put down is the **Start** node. It's the standard entry point for any execution. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.start` and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node doesn't require any specific configuration; it's simply the trigger that kicks off the workflow. I'll place it logically at the beginning, like at `[250, 300]`.\n\nNow, what's the immediate next step? The prompt says \"read `\/tmp\/04-valid.pdf`\". To read a file from the local file system, the most appropriate node is the **Read Binary File** node. This node is specifically designed for accessing files by their path and outputting them as binary data, which is exactly what we need for a PDF. So, I'll add a **Read Binary File** node with `type` `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile` and `typeVersion` `1`.\n\nFor its configuration, the crucial part is specifying *which* file to read. The prompt explicitly states `\/tmp\/04-valid.pdf`, so I'll set the `filePath` parameter to this exact path. This tells the node precisely where to find the PDF file. I'll also add the note \"Read static pdf file from node_modules\" as requested in the prompt, by setting `notesInFlow` to `true` and the `notes` field to that string. I'll position it after the Start node, around `[450, 300]`.\n\nOnce the **Read Binary File** node has successfully read the PDF, it will output the file's content as binary data. This output needs to be fed into the next step, which is to actually *parse* the PDF. The prompt specifies a \"Read PDF\" node for this. So, the next node will be the **Read PDF** node. This node (`type`: `n8n-nodes-base.readPDF`, `typeVersion`: `1`) is specifically built to take binary PDF data as input and extract text and potentially other information from it. It's perfectly suited for interpreting the data output by the \"Read Binary File\" node.\n\nI'll place the **Read PDF** node visually to the right, perhaps at `[650, 300]`. As per the prompt, this node should also have a note: \"Parse PDF\", so I'll set `notesInFlow` to `true` and the `notes` field accordingly. It doesn't need any additional parameters beyond receiving the binary data.\n\nNow, for the connections.\nFirst, the **Start** node needs to initiate the file reading process. So, I'll connect its main output to the main input of the **Read Binary File** node. This means when the workflow starts, it immediately tells the \"Read Binary File\" node to execute.\n\nNext, the binary data from the \"Read Binary File\" node must flow into the \"Read PDF\" node. So, I'll connect the main output of the **Read Binary File** node to the main input of the **Read PDF** node. This ensures that the PDF content, once read from the file system, is directly passed to the node designed to parse it. The \"Read PDF\" node will then receive this binary data and process it.\n\nFinally, regarding the overall workflow properties, the prompt specified the `id` as \"104\", the `name` as \"ReadPDF\", and that it should be `active: false`. I'll ensure these are set correctly in the workflow's top-level properties. This inactive status means it won't run automatically until manually activated.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. We start, read the file, and then parse the binary data of that file. It's a straightforward sequence to achieve the stated goal." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then uses the Bitly node to shorten the URL 'https:\/\/calendar.usc.edu\/event\/curricular_practical_training_cpt_information_session_8120?utm_campaign=widget&utm_medium=widget&utm_source=USC+Event+Calendar#.Xv0UlpNKhQK' using 'test' credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [490, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"longUrl\": \"https:\/\/calendar.usc.edu\/event\/curricular_practical_training_cpt_information_session_8120?utm_campaign=widget&utm_medium=widget&utm_source=USC+Event+Calendar#.Xv0UlpNKhQK\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Bitly\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.bitly\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [830, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Bitly\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then uses the Bitly node to shorten a specific URL. They also mentioned using 'test' credentials for Bitly. This sounds pretty straightforward, a two-node workflow.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to initiate its execution. Given the request, \"starts with a manual trigger,\" the most natural choice here is to grab a `manualTrigger` node. This node, with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`, is perfect because it allows someone to explicitly click a button within the n8n interface to kick off the process. It's simple, direct, and exactly what's asked for. I don't need any special configurations for it; its default parameters are usually empty, and that's precisely what we see in the JSON, which confirms its basic use as a simple on-demand activator.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's the next step? The prompt explicitly states, \"then uses the Bitly node to shorten the URL.\" So, naturally, the next piece of the puzzle is a `Bitly` node. I'll add one of these. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.bitly`, and looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed to interact with the Bitly API to perform URL shortening, which is exactly what we need.\n\nOnce I have the Bitly node in place, I need to connect it to the manual trigger. The `manualTrigger` will simply pass on its execution signal to the `Bitly` node, telling it to run. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the `main` input of the \"Bitly\" node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the Bitly operation immediately follows.\n\nNext, I need to configure the `Bitly` node. The core requirement here is to shorten a very specific URL: 'https:\/\/calendar.usc.edu\/event\/curricular_practical_training_cpt_information_session_8120?utm_campaign=widget&utm_medium=widget&utm_source=USC+Event+Calendar#.Xv0UlpNKhQK'. This goes directly into the `longUrl` parameter of the Bitly node. So, under its parameters, I'd set `longUrl` to that exact string. There aren't any other specific instructions for additional fields, like custom short links or specific domains, so `additionalFields` can remain empty, as it is in the JSON. This keeps the configuration minimal and focused on the core task.\n\nFinally, and this is crucial, the prompt mentions \"using 'test' credentials.\" For the Bitly node to work, it needs to authenticate with the Bitly API. This is handled via credentials. In n8n, you'd typically select a pre-configured credential. Here, the JSON specifies `credentials: {\"bitlyApi\": \"test\"}`. This means that for the `bitlyApi` credential type, a credential named 'test' has been set up previously in the n8n instance. This would usually involve providing an API key or an OAuth token to connect to Bitly. I wouldn't know the actual key, but the workflow simply references that named credential. This ensures the Bitly node has the necessary authorization to perform the shortening operation.\n\nAnd that's it. A simple, efficient two-node workflow, manually initiated, that takes a given URL and shortens it using the specified Bitly credentials. Seems complete for the task described." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'SIGNL4:Alert:send resolve'.

The request is pretty clear: create an inactive workflow named 'SIGNL4:Alert:send resolve' that first sends a SIGNL4 alert with a dynamic message and title, and then immediately resolves that alert using the `eventId` from the initial send. All of this needs to use \"Signal4 creds.\"\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point. So, I'll definitely need a **Start node**. This is the most basic node, `n8n-nodes-base.start`, with `typeVersion` 1. I'll place it as the very first node in our canvas, typically at a convenient starting coordinate, say `[250, 300]`. It doesn't do much beyond triggering the workflow, which is exactly what we need for this initial setup.\n\nNext, the core requirement is to send a SIGNL4 alert. For that, I'll obviously need a **SIGNL4 node**. The `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.signl4`, and the `typeVersion` is 1. This node is perfect because it's designed specifically for interacting with the SIGNL4 API. I'll connect its main output from the Start node's main input. I'll position it right after the Start node, maybe around `[450, 300]`.\n\nNow, how do I configure this SIGNL4 node? The prompt states \"dynamic message and title.\" This means I can't just hardcode static text. Looking at the provided JSON, it uses expressions. For the `message` parameter, it's set to `\"=test{{Date.now()}}\"`. This is a smart way to make it dynamic; it uses an expression to inject the current timestamp, ensuring a unique message every time the workflow runs. Similarly, for the `additionalFields` and specifically the `title`, it's set to `\"=Title{{Date.now()}}\"`. Again, a dynamic title using the current timestamp. This ensures that each alert sent has a slightly different identifier, which can be very useful for testing or tracking.\n\nCrucially, this SIGNL4 node needs credentials. The prompt specifies \"Signal4 creds.\" In the node's `credentials` block, I'll link it to a pre-configured SIGNL4 API credential, let's say its ID is '53' and its name is 'Signal4 creds'. This allows the node to authenticate with the SIGNL4 service without exposing sensitive API keys directly within the workflow definition.\n\nSo, at this point, we've got a workflow that starts and sends an alert. The next part of the requirement is to \"immediately resolve that alert using the `eventId` generated by the previous step.\" This means I'll need *another* SIGNL4 node. It will be the same `type`: `n8n-nodes-base.signl4`, and `typeVersion` 1. I'll connect the main output of the first SIGNL4 node to the main input of this new one. I'll name this second SIGNL4 node \"SIGNL\" as per the JSON, and position it to the right, perhaps at `[600, 300]`.\n\nThis second SIGNL4 node needs to perform a \"resolve\" operation. So, in its `parameters`, I'll explicitly set the `operation` to \"resolve\". This is the key setting that changes its behavior from sending an alert to resolving an existing one.\n\nThe most critical part here is how to identify *which* alert to resolve. The prompt says \"using the `eventId` generated by the previous step.\" The `eventId` is a unique identifier returned by SIGNL4 when an alert is successfully sent. The first SIGNL4 node will output this `eventId` as part of its data. To access it, I'll use an expression in the `externalId` parameter of this second SIGNL4 node. The JSON shows `=\"={{$node[\\\"SIGNL4\\\"].json[\\\"eventId\\\"]}}\"`. This expression is perfect:\n* `$node[\"SIGNL4\"]` refers to the output of the previous node, which I named \"SIGNL4\" (the first alert sending node).\n* `.json` accesses the JSON data structure returned by that node.\n* `[\"eventId\"]` specifically extracts the `eventId` property from that JSON.\nThis ensures that the exact alert sent by the previous step is the one targeted for resolution.\n\nJust like the first SIGNL4 node, this one also needs credentials to connect to SIGNL4. So, I'll link it to the same \"Signal4 creds\" (ID '53', name 'Signal4 creds') to ensure it uses the same authentication.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies the workflow should be \"inactive.\" So, after setting up all the nodes and their connections, I'll make sure the `active` property of the entire workflow is set to `false`. This prevents it from automatically running and ensures it's only triggered manually or by an external system if desired later.\n\nThat completes the build-out. We have a Start, a SIGNL4 node to send an alert with dynamic data, passing its `eventId` to a subsequent SIGNL4 node to immediately resolve it, all using specified credentials and set to inactive.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to set up an active n8n workflow that listens for a webhook, grabs some content from a Google Docs document, and then sends that content right back as a response.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick off this whole process. Since the prompt specifies a webhook trigger, that's where I'll start. I'll drag over a **Webhook node**. This is the standard way to initiate a workflow from an external call. The `type` for this will be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and I see from the plan it's `typeVersion 2`. This version is robust and commonly used for webhooks.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Webhook node? The prompt explicitly states it should trigger at `\/GetMemory`. So, I'll go into the node's parameters and set the `path` to \"GetMemory\". This is crucial for defining the endpoint URL that external systems will call. Also, for this workflow to work as expected, where we retrieve data and then send it *back* as a response to the original webhook, I need to make sure the webhook isn't closing immediately. So, the `responseMode` needs to be set to \"responseNode\". This tells the Webhook node to wait for a subsequent \"Respond to Webhook\" node to actually send the HTTP response, keeping the connection open until we have the document content ready. The other `options` can typically be left at their defaults unless specific headers or authentication are needed, which isn't the case here.\n\nOnce the webhook triggers, the next step is to actually get the content from Google Docs. For that, I'll add a **Google Docs node**. This node is specifically designed to interact with Google Docs, handling authentication and operations like reading or writing documents. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and it's also `typeVersion 2`.\n\nNow, how do I connect these two? The flow is sequential: Webhook receives, then Google Docs acts. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the Webhook node to the `main` input of the Google Docs node. This ensures that when the webhook fires, the execution proceeds directly to the Google Docs operation.\n\nConfiguring the Google Docs node is straightforward for this task. We need to retrieve content, so the `operation` parameter should be set to \"get\". This tells the node we want to read data from a document. The prompt provides the exact Google Docs URL, so I'll input that into the `documentURL` parameter. This is how the node knows which specific document to access. For credentials, the `googleDocsOAuth2Api` credential would be selected here, pointing to a pre-configured Google account that has access to the specified document. This credential handles the necessary authentication with Google's API. Without a proper credential, this node wouldn't be able to access the document.\n\nFinally, after we've successfully retrieved the content from Google Docs, we need to send it back to the original caller of the webhook. This calls for a **Respond to Webhook node**. This node is specifically for sending an HTTP response back to the webhook that triggered the workflow, which we prepared for earlier by setting the `responseMode` on the Webhook node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, and it's `typeVersion 1.1`.\n\nThe connection from the Google Docs node to the Respond to Webhook node is also a `main` connection. This means that as soon as the Google Docs node finishes fetching the document content, it passes that data to the Respond to Webhook node.\n\nFor configuring the Respond to Webhook node, the prompt states we need to respond with the document's content. So, I'll set the `respondWith` parameter to \"text\", as we're likely getting the document's body as plain text or similar. Then, for the `responseBody`, I need to reference the output of the Google Docs node. Typically, when a Google Docs node retrieves content, it puts the document's text into a field like `content` in its output JSON. So, I'll use an expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This tells the Respond to Webhook node to take the value from the `content` field of the incoming JSON data (which comes from the Google Docs node) and use it as the body of the HTTP response. The `options` parameter can generally be left as default unless specific headers or status codes are required.\n\nBeyond the nodes themselves, the workflow has a `name` set to \"GetMemory\", which aligns perfectly with the prompt. It's also marked as `active: true`, meaning it's ready to run as soon as it's deployed. And finally, the `tags` are set to \"Memory\" and \"Files\", which helps with organization and searching within n8n. This overall structure and configuration seem to perfectly match the requirements for retrieving Google Docs content via a webhook and responding with it." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow starting with a manual trigger, leading to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields' with sample input data.

The prompt outlines a specific flow, starting with a manual trigger, going through a data-setting node, then a code execution, and finally another data setting node that references earlier data.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. The prompt explicitly calls for a manual trigger. So, I'll begin by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. This is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`. It's the go-to choice when you want to initiate a workflow by hand, perhaps for testing or for a one-off execution. It doesn't require any specific configuration; its purpose is simply to kick things off when you click \"Test workflow\" or execute it manually.\n\nNext, the prompt states that it should lead to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields' with sample input data. A **Set** node is perfect for this. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is `3.2`. I'll connect the 'Manual Trigger' node's main output to the 'Edit Fields' node's main input. The beauty of the Set node here is that it allows us to inject predefined data directly into the workflow. Looking at the provided JSON, this 'Edit Fields' node is configured with `pinData` which holds an array of JSON objects. This means it will output multiple items, each representing a record with fields like `id`, `name`, `email`, `notes`, `country`, and `created`. This effectively serves as our initial dataset for the workflow.\n\nNow, following the 'Edit Fields' node, the prompt specifies a 'Code' node named 'Break pairedItem chain'. So, I'll draw a connection from the 'Edit Fields' node to this new **Code** node. The `type` for this node is `n8n-nodes-base.code` and its `typeVersion` is `2`. A Code node is incredibly powerful because it lets us execute custom JavaScript logic. The name \"Break pairedItem chain\" and the explicit return value `[{ \"field\": \"the same\" }]` are very telling. Typically, n8n tries to maintain a \"paired item\" relationship, meaning if a node receives multiple input items, it tries to output the same number of items, often with a connection back to the original input item's context. By returning a completely new, fixed array like `[{ \"field\": \"the same\" }]`, this Code node explicitly overrides that behavior. It takes all the items from 'Edit Fields' as input, processes them, and then outputs only a single, brand-new item. This effectively \"breaks\" the direct context link to the multiple input items for any subsequent nodes.\n\nFinally, the workflow connects to a 'Set' node named 'Error' that needs to dynamically extract the 'name' field from the 'Edit Fields' node's output. So, I'll connect the 'Break pairedItem chain' node to this new **Set** node. Again, it's a `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.2`. This Set node's purpose is to create or modify data. The crucial part here is how it gets its value. Despite the 'Code' node having broken the paired item chain and providing a new, single item as input, this 'Error' node's configuration uses an expression: `={{ $('Edit Fields').item.json.name }}`. This is a very common n8n pattern for referencing data from *any* upstream node by its name. So, even though its direct input is the `{\"field\": \"the same\"}` item from the Code node, this Set node is specifically told to go back to the 'Edit Fields' node, grab its output, and then take the `name` field from the *first item* (`.item`) of that node's JSON output. This means it will extract \"Jay Gatsby\" from our original sample data, creating a new field with that value, regardless of what the intermediate Code node did to the data flow's current item context." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named '[UDIA] Securizaci\u00f3n de Webhooks' that includes a single Webhook trigger node configured for POST requests at the path 'Udiasecurity' and uses JWT authentication.", "json": "{\"name\": \"[UDIA] Securizaci\\u00f3n de Webhooks\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"httpMethod\": \"POST\", \"path\": \"Udiasecurity\", \"authentication\": \"jwtAuth\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this workflow from scratch, as if I'm building it directly in n8n. The request is quite specific: an inactive workflow named '[UDIA] Securizaci\u00f3n de Webhooks' with a single Webhook trigger node for POST requests at 'Udiasecurity' using JWT authentication.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states it's about receiving webhook requests. So, the very first, and in this case, only node we'll need, will be a Webhook node. This is the perfect choice because it's designed specifically to listen for incoming HTTP requests and initiate a workflow.\n\nSo, I'd drag a **Webhook** node onto the canvas. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`. I see that the `typeVersion` is `2` in the provided JSON. This is good; version 2 typically offers a stable set of features for webhooks. If it were an older version, I might consider if any critical features were missing or if the parameter structure was significantly different, but for a standard POST webhook, version 2 is generally robust.\n\nNow, let's configure this Webhook node according to the requirements.\n\nThe most critical configurations for a webhook are its HTTP method, its path, and how it handles authentication.\n\n1. **HTTP Method:** The prompt explicitly states \"configured for POST requests\". So, I'll go into the Webhook node's settings and set its `httpMethod` parameter to `POST`. This ensures that the webhook will only activate when it receives an HTTP POST request, ignoring other methods like GET or PUT, which is crucial for security and correct routing of data.\n\n2. **Path:** The prompt specifies \"at the path 'Udiasecurity'\". So, I'll set the `path` parameter to `Udiasecurity`. This means the full URL for this webhook will be something like `https:\/\/your-n8n-instance.com\/webhook\/Udiasecurity`. This unique path makes it identifiable and specific to this purpose.\n\n3. **Authentication:** This is a key requirement: \"uses JWT authentication\". This is an important security measure. I need to make sure the `authentication` parameter is set to `jwtAuth`. When this is chosen, the Webhook node expects an incoming request to contain a JSON Web Token (JWT), typically in an `Authorization` header. n8n will then attempt to validate this token using a pre-configured JWT credential. Looking at the JSON, it shows `credentials: {\"jwtAuth\": {\"id\": \"YgghXmLcHa0SpFUd\", \"name\": \"JWT Auth account\"}}`. This implies that a JWT credential, let's call it \"JWT Auth account\" for now, has already been set up in n8n. This credential would contain the secret key or public key necessary to verify the signature of the incoming JWT. Without a valid JWT, the webhook won't trigger, providing that layer of security.\n\nBeyond these core settings, I'd also ensure the node's visual properties are clean. The `position: [0, 0]` in the JSON is just where it sits on the canvas, typically at the starting point, which makes sense for a trigger node. The `name` of the node is just \"Webhook\", which is fine for a single-node workflow, though I might consider renaming it to \"Receive UDIA Security Webhook\" for more clarity in a larger context, but for now, \"Webhook\" works.\n\nFinally, at the workflow level, the prompt requires the workflow to be named '[UDIA] Securizaci\u00f3n de Webhooks' and to be \"inactive\". So, I'd make sure the `name` property of the workflow itself is set to `[UDIA] Securizaci\u00f3n de Webhooks`. And importantly, the `active` property of the workflow should be `false`. This means that even though the webhook node is configured, the workflow won't be live and listening for requests until it's manually activated. This is standard practice when developing a workflow, allowing me to build and test without exposing it prematurely.\n\nSince the prompt only mentions a single Webhook trigger node, there are no connections to other nodes in this workflow. It just acts as the entry point, ready for whatever subsequent logic might be added later, but for now, it stands alone as the secure entry point. The `connections: {}` in the JSON confirms this lack of connections, and `settings: {\"executionOrder\": \"v1\"}` is a default setting for how nodes are processed, which is fine here. The other metadata like `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, `id`, `versionId` are all internal n8n identifiers and timestamps that are automatically managed." } { "prompt": "Design an n8n workflow that begins with a Schedule Trigger node and connects directly to a Set node which is not configured to set any specific values.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Schedule Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [420, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [640, 260]}], \"connections\": {\"Schedule Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start designing this n8n workflow. The goal is pretty straightforward from the prompt: we need a workflow that kicks off on a schedule and then goes directly into a Set node that isn't really doing anything specific.\n\nSo, thinking about where to begin, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly states it should \"begin with a Schedule Trigger node.\" That makes my first choice very clear. I'd drag a **Schedule Trigger** node onto the canvas.\n\nLooking at the JSON, this node is defined as having `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is the standard, built-in schedule trigger, and version 1 is what I'd expect for this fundamental node. It's perfect for initiating a workflow at predefined intervals, which is exactly what \"Schedule Trigger\" implies.\n\nNow, how would I configure this Schedule Trigger? The JSON shows `{\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}}`. This is interesting. It indicates that it's set up to trigger based on an \"interval\" rule, but the `interval` array itself is empty. This means I've chosen the \"Interval\" option for the trigger frequency, but haven't actually specified *what* interval (e.g., every 5 minutes, every hour). It's essentially a Schedule Trigger that's configured to be an interval, but without a specific time set. It fulfills the requirement of being a Schedule Trigger, just a very minimally configured one in terms of its exact timing. I'd typically expect to set something like \"every 1 hour\" or \"every 30 minutes\" here, but for this specific setup, leaving it empty is part of the design specification, implying a basic, ready-to-be-configured interval.\n\nNext, the prompt says this workflow \"connects directly to a Set node which is not configured to set any specific values.\" So, once the Schedule Trigger fires, whatever data it outputs needs to go into a Set node.\n\nI'd add a **Set** node right after my Schedule Trigger. For the Set node, the JSON tells me it's `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is the standard Set node, which is incredibly versatile. It's typically used for adding new fields to incoming data, modifying existing fields, or even removing fields. It's great for transforming or preparing data for subsequent nodes.\n\nThe crucial part here is its configuration. The prompt says it's \"not configured to set any specific values.\" And indeed, the JSON confirms this with `{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}}`. The `options` object is completely empty. This means that while the Set node is present, it's not actually adding, modifying, or removing any data. It will simply receive whatever input it gets from the Schedule Trigger and pass it through untouched. In this particular scenario, it's almost acting like a passthrough or a placeholder node, perhaps for future development where values *will* be set. If I were designing this for a real-world scenario, I'd probably be thinking, \"Why is this Set node here if it's not doing anything?\" but following the instructions, this is exactly what's required. It's a Set node that is functionally inert for now.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The JSON clearly shows the connection: `{\"Schedule Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the `main` output of the \"Schedule Trigger\" node connects directly to the `main` input of the \"Set\" node. This is a standard flow, where the output of the trigger, which usually contains information about when it fired (like a timestamp), will be sent as the input to the Set node. Since the Set node isn't configured to change anything, that timestamp data (or whatever basic data the Schedule Trigger provides) will simply pass right through it.\n\nSo, to visualize, the Schedule Trigger would be on the left, and the Set node would be placed to its right, with a connection flowing from the output of the Schedule Trigger to the input of the Set node. The positions `[420, 260]` for the Schedule Trigger and `[640, 260]` for the Set node confirm this left-to-right arrangement on the canvas, indicating a direct, sequential flow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers when a new driver signs up in Onfleet and then sends a Slack message to the '#new-driver-signup' channel with the text \"A new driver has signed up!\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Onfleet Driver signup message in Slack\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerOn\": \"workerCreated\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Onfleet Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.onfleetTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"A new driver has signed up!\", \"channel\": \"#new-driver-signup\", \"attachments\": [], \"otherOptions\": {}}, \"name\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.slack\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Onfleet Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's design this workflow from scratch. The user wants to be notified in Slack whenever a new driver signs up in Onfleet. This immediately tells me I'll need two main components: a way to detect the Onfleet event, and a way to send a message to Slack.\n\nFirst things first, I need a trigger. The request specifies \"when a new driver signs up in Onfleet\". For that, I'll look for a dedicated Onfleet trigger node. Browsing the available nodes, `n8n-nodes-base.onfleetTrigger` seems like the perfect fit. This node is designed specifically to listen for events happening within Onfleet. I'd place this as my starting node, perhaps conceptually at the beginning of my canvas. The `typeVersion` for this node is 1, which indicates its specific versioning within n8n's node ecosystem. This version typically handles events and parameters in a consistent way for this integration.\n\nNow that I have my trigger, I need to configure it. The prompt says \"new driver signs up\". In Onfleet's terminology, drivers are often referred to as \"workers\". So, I'd look for an event type that corresponds to a worker being created. The `triggerOn` parameter in the node's configuration clearly specifies `workerCreated`. This is exactly what I need. It ensures that this workflow will only activate when a new worker (driver) record is successfully created in Onfleet. Beyond that, I don't need any additional fields for this specific trigger, so `additionalFields` can remain empty. To make this trigger functional, it would require credentials, specifically an Onfleet API key, to allow n8n to connect to Onfleet and set up the necessary webhook listener. The `webhookId` parameter is something n8n automatically manages internally to reference the specific webhook created in Onfleet for this trigger instance.\n\nOnce a new driver signs up and the Onfleet Trigger node activates, the next step is to send a Slack message. So, naturally, the next node I need is a Slack node. The `n8n-nodes-base.slack` node is the standard choice for interacting with Slack. I'd drag and drop this node onto the canvas and connect it directly from the main output of the \"Onfleet Trigger\" node to the main input of this \"Slack\" node. This connection ensures that when the Onfleet event occurs, the data flows directly into the Slack node, allowing it to perform its action. This Slack node also has a `typeVersion` of 1, similar to the Onfleet Trigger, indicating its stable version for handling Slack operations.\n\nConfiguring the Slack node is straightforward based on the prompt. The user wants the message sent to the '#new-driver-signup' channel. So, I'll set the `channel` parameter to that specific channel name. For the `text` of the message, the prompt specifies \"A new driver has signed up!\", so I'll input that exact string into the `text` parameter. There are no other requirements for attachments or complex formatting, so the `attachments` and `otherOptions` parameters can be left as their defaults. Just like the Onfleet node, this Slack node will require authentication. It would need Slack API credentials, likely a Slack account credential, to authorize n8n to post messages to the specified channel.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The flow is simple: Onfleet event happens, data goes to Slack, Slack sends message. No complex data manipulation or branching is needed for this particular request. The main output of the Onfleet Trigger node feeds directly into the main input of the Slack node, passing along whatever data the Onfleet event provides, though the Slack node only uses its own configured parameters for the message content." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

The prompt explicitly says \"starts with a manual trigger.\" Given that, the most straightforward and appropriate node is the `manualTrigger`.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node is specifically designed for situations where a human user needs to initiate the workflow directly from the n8n interface. It's simple, requires no configuration beyond its existence, and perfectly fulfills the \"manual trigger\" requirement. I don't really have to think about different versions for a basic trigger like this; its core functionality is quite stable. Once this is in place, clicking 'Execute Workflow' will send an empty item down the line to start things off.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"Add a Set node to define a 'message' field with the value 'hello there'.\" This means I need to create new data or modify existing data. For this kind of data manipulation, a `Set` node is my go-to choice. It's incredibly versatile for adding, changing, or removing fields from items.\n* **Connection:** I'll connect the `manualTrigger` node's main output to the input of this new `Set` node. This ensures that when the workflow starts, the execution flow and any initial data (even if empty, like from a manual trigger) get passed along.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `3.4` (It's good to note the version, as sometimes functionality can evolve, though for basic field setting, it's pretty stable across minor versions).\n* **Reasoning:** The `Set` node is perfect for this. I can explicitly define a new field and give it a static value.\n* **Configuration:** Inside the `Set` node's parameters, under 'Assignments', I'll add an assignment.\n * For the `Name` of the field, I'll put `message`.\n * For the `Value`, it needs to be `'hello there'`. Since it's a string, I'll ensure the `Type` is set to `string`. This will create an item where the `json` object now contains `{ \"message\": \"hello there\" }`.\n\nFinally, the prompt asks for \"another Set node that dynamically sets a 'test' field to the value of the 'message' field from the previous step.\" Again, I'm modifying or adding fields, so another `Set` node is the way to go.\n* **Connection:** I'll connect the main output of the first `Set` node (`Edit Fields1`) to the input of this new `Set` node. This is crucial because this second `Set` node needs access to the data that the first `Set` node just created \u2013 specifically, the `message` field.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `3.4` (Consistent with the previous `Set` node).\n* **Reasoning:** This `Set` node allows me to create a new field (`test`) and, importantly, use an expression to pull data from a previous node's output.\n* **Configuration:** Inside this `Set` node's parameters, under 'Assignments', I'll add another assignment.\n * For the `Name` of the field, I'll put `test`.\n * For the `Value`, this is where the dynamic part comes in. I need to reference the `message` field from the data item coming *into* this node. The expression for that is `={{ $json.message }}`. The `={{ }}` syntax signifies a JavaScript expression, and `$json` refers to the current item's JSON data. So, it's telling n8n, \"take the value of the 'message' key from the current JSON object.\"\n * The `Type` will also be `string` since the value of `message` is a string.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow as described. The data will flow from the trigger, gain a `message` field, and then that `message` field will be used to populate a `test` field, resulting in an item like `{ \"message\": \"hello there\", \"test\": \"hello there\" }`." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Get Weather'. The workflow should start with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' and then use a 'Set' node to define a field named 'response' with the value 'Weather is sunny'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get Weather\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [560, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"Weather is sunny\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, 340]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed! Starting from scratch, the first thing I need to do is give the workflow a clear, descriptive name. The prompt specifies \"Get Weather,\" which is perfect and tells me exactly what the workflow's high-level purpose is. So, \"Get Weather\" it is for the workflow name.\n\nNow, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to be triggered. The prompt clearly states that the workflow should \"start with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger'.\" This is a great choice because it's a very flexible trigger. It allows the workflow to be run manually, or to be called from another workflow, or even via an API call in some setups. It doesn't rely on external events like webhooks or schedules, making it a simple, direct entry point.\n\nSo, my first node will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`, and looking at the provided JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1`. This means it's the initial version of this trigger, which is perfectly suitable for just initiating a workflow execution. I wouldn't need to configure any specific parameters for this node, as its default behavior of simply starting the workflow is exactly what's required here. It essentially just passes an empty item along to the next node, signaling the start of the process.\n\nNext, after the workflow is triggered, what's the core action we need to perform? The prompt says \"then use a 'Set' node to define a field named 'response' with the value 'Weather is sunny'.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can manipulate or create data fields. The `Set` node is absolutely the right tool for this job. It's designed specifically for adding new fields to items or modifying existing ones with either static values or expressions. It's incredibly useful for shaping the data that flows through the workflow.\n\nLooking at the JSON, I see the next node is named \"Edit Fields,\" and its `type` is indeed `n8n-nodes-base.set`. The `typeVersion` for this particular `Set` node is `3.4`. This indicates it's a more evolved version of the node compared to version 1, likely offering more features or refinements in how it handles assignments, but its core purpose remains the same.\n\nNow, for configuring this `Set` node, I need to tell it exactly what field to create and what value to put in it. The JSON's `parameters` show an `assignments` block, which is where I'd define these. Inside that, there's an array of assignments. For this specific requirement, there's just one assignment:\n- The `name` of the field should be `response`.\n- The `value` for that field should be the string `Weather is sunny`.\n- And its `type` is explicitly `string`.\n\nThis configuration precisely matches what the prompt asked for. The `Set` node will take the item (which at this point is likely empty or contains just basic execution data from the trigger) and add a new field called `response` with the specified weather message to it. This new item, now containing the `response` field, will then be passed along.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The output of my \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" needs to feed directly into the input of my \"Edit Fields\" (Set) node. The `connections` object in the JSON shows this clearly: the `main` output of the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node connects to the `main` input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This ensures that when the workflow is triggered, the flow of execution and data moves smoothly from the trigger to the node that sets the weather response. It's a very straightforward, linear workflow, perfect for this simple task." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"update shipment\" that starts with a manual trigger.

It's the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node, and looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect for what we need. It's a simple, straightforward node that allows us to initiate the workflow by clicking a button in the n8n UI, which is exactly what \"manual trigger\" implies. I'll place that down as the starting point. It doesn't require any specific configuration on its own; its role is just to kick off the execution.\n\nNow that we have our starting point, what's next? The prompt states, \"This trigger should then initiate an HTTP request to `fourkits.com\/api`.\" This is a clear directive. To make an external web request, the `HTTP Request` node is the standard tool in n8n.\n\nSo, I'll add an `HTTP Request` node. Looking at the JSON, it's `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`, with `typeVersion: 4.2`. This is the right node for interacting with web services.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The manual trigger needs to *initiate* the HTTP request, meaning the flow of execution goes from the trigger to the HTTP request. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the `manualTrigger` node to the `main` input of the `HTTP Request` node. This ensures that once the workflow is manually triggered, the very next step will be to execute that HTTP request.\n\nNext, I need to configure the `HTTP Request` node. The prompt specifies the URL: `fourkits.com\/api`. So, in the `parameters` of the `HTTP Request` node, I'll set the `url` field to `fourkits.com\/api`. It's important to get that exact.\n\nThe JSON also shows `options: {}` for the `HTTP Request` node. This tells me that for this particular request, no additional parameters like HTTP method (it defaults to GET, which is fine here if not specified), headers, body data, or authentication details are required by the prompt. It's just a simple request to that URL. If, for example, we needed to send data to \"update shipment,\" we'd probably be looking at a POST or PUT request, and the `options` would include a `body` property with the data to send. But for now, just the URL is enough based on the provided information.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow now has a manual starting point and correctly makes an HTTP request to the specified URL.

A **Code** node is the right choice here because it allows us to run custom JavaScript, which is exactly what's needed for the `error` keyword and the `myNewField` assignment.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Code** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.code`, and `typeVersion` 1. I'll name it \"Error\" as requested. The critical part here is its configuration: it needs to be `disabled: true`. This ensures it won't actually throw an error during execution unless I were to manually enable it. For its JavaScript `parameters.jsCode`, I need to include `item.json.myNewField = 1;` and then the `error` keyword. The standard boilerplate for Code nodes typically loops over input items, so I'll make sure to wrap that in a loop like `for (const item of $input.all()) { item.json.myNewField = 1; error } return $input.all();`. The `error` keyword here is meant to cause the node to fail if it were enabled, demonstrating an error condition. I'll position this node to the right of the trigger, perhaps at `position` [680, 460], indicating the flow.\n\nNow for the connection: the Manual Trigger's main output should connect to the 'Error' Code node's main input. This establishes the direct flow from the trigger.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that the 'Error' node then connects to \"another Code node named 'Code'\". Even though the 'Error' node is disabled, the connection still needs to be made as part of the workflow structure. This is pretty common in n8n for setting up potential future paths or simply organizing the flow.\n\nSo, I'll add another **Code** node. Again, its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.code`, and `typeVersion` 1. I'll name this one \"Code\", as per the prompt. For its JavaScript `parameters.jsCode`, it also needs to include `item.json.myNewField = 1;`. Since it's a regular code node, it will process inputs and add that field. The typical script structure `for (const item of $input.all()) { item.json.myNewField = 1; } return $input.all();` works perfectly here. I'll place this node further to the right, perhaps at `position` [900, 460], maintaining a clear left-to-right flow.\n\nThe connection from the 'Error' node to this new 'Code' node will be from the 'Error' node's main output to the 'Code' node's main input. This completes the sequential flow of nodes: Manual Trigger -> Disabled Error Code -> Code.\n\nLastly, the workflow needs tags. The prompt asks for 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'. So, I'll just add these two tags to the workflow's overall metadata. This is useful for organization and searchability within the n8n instance. These tags are just identifiers, so their `id`, `createdAt`, and `updatedAt` values will be system-generated." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that manually triggers to list all objects from an AWS S3 bucket.

For each object, send it to AWS Transcribe to initiate a transcription job, automatically detecting the language and naming the job based on the S3 object's key.\"\n\nRight, so the very first thing I need is a way to kick this whole process off. The prompt says \"manually triggers.\"\n\n**Node 1: On clicking 'execute'**\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Reasoning:** This is the most straightforward way to start a workflow on demand. When someone clicks \"Execute Workflow\" in n8n, this node will activate and send a single item of data down the workflow chain, signalling the start. It doesn't need any specific parameters configured; its purpose is simply to initiate.\n\nOkay, so the workflow starts. What's next? The prompt says \"list all objects from an AWS S3 bucket.\" That sounds like an AWS S3 operation.\n\n**Node 2: AWS S3**\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.awsS3`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Reasoning:** To interact with AWS S3, this is the dedicated node. It provides all the necessary operations for S3 buckets and objects.\n* **Connection:** This node needs to run *after* the manual trigger, so I'll connect the `manualTrigger` node's main output to the input of this `AWS S3` node.\n* **Configuration:**\n * **Operation:** The goal is to \"list *all* objects,\" so I'd choose the `getAll` operation. This is specifically designed to retrieve a list of all objects within a bucket.\n * **Return All:** I'd absolutely set this to `true`. If `false`, it might only return a limited number of items, and we need to process *every* object in the bucket. We want to ensure we don't miss anything.\n * **Bucket Name:** This is where the specific S3 bucket name would be configured. In the provided JSON, it's set to \"n8n-docs.\" This tells the node which bucket to connect to and list objects from.\n * **Credentials:** Of course, it would need a configured AWS credential set to authenticate with AWS and access the S3 bucket. I'd link the appropriate AWS S3 credentials here.\n\nNow I have a list of S3 objects. For each of these objects, the prompt states: \"send it to AWS Transcribe to initiate a transcription job, automatically detecting the language and naming the job based on the S3 object's key.\" This clearly points to an AWS Transcribe node, and it needs to process *each* item coming from the S3 list.\n\n**Node 3: AWS Transcribe**\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.awsTranscribe`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Reasoning:** This node is purpose-built for interacting with AWS Transcribe, allowing us to initiate transcription jobs.\n* **Connection:** This is crucial: the `AWS S3` node, when it lists objects, will output one item for *each* object it finds. So, I need to connect the main output of the `AWS S3` node directly to the input of this `AWS Transcribe` node. This way, the `AWS Transcribe` node will automatically run once for every S3 object item it receives.\n* **Configuration:**\n * **Media File URI:** This is the most critical part. AWS Transcribe needs the full S3 path to the audio or video file. The data coming from the `AWS S3` node will include the `Key` (the object's path within the bucket) for each item. I need to dynamically construct the full S3 URI. So, I'd use an expression: `s3:\/\/{{$node[\"AWS S3\"].parameter[\"bucketName\"]}}\/{{$json[\"Key\"]}}`. This correctly pulls the bucket name from the *previous* node's configuration (which is consistent across all items) and then injects the specific object `Key` from the current item being processed.\n * **Detect Language:** The prompt specifically asks to \"automatically detect the language.\" So, I'd set this parameter to `true`. This tells Transcribe to figure out the language of the audio itself.\n * **Transcription Job Name:** The requirement is \"naming the job based on the S3 object's key.\" S3 keys can sometimes contain characters that aren't ideal for job names, like spaces. So, I'd use an expression that takes the `Key` and cleans it up slightly. The expression `={{$json[\"Key\"].replace(\/\\\\s\/g,'-')}}` does exactly that: it takes the object's `Key` and replaces any whitespace characters (`\\s`) with a hyphen (`-`), making it more suitable for a job name.\n * **Credentials:** Like the S3 node, this would also require a configured AWS credential set specifically for AWS Transcribe to allow it to communicate with the service.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The `manualTrigger` starts it, the `AWS S3` node gets all the files, and then the `AWS Transcribe` node iterates through each file and starts a job as requested." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and connects directly to a ClickUp node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"list\": \"\", \"name\": \"\", \"team\": \"\", \"space\": \"\", \"folder\": \"\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"ClickUp\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.clickUp\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"ClickUp\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this workflow. The user prompt is quite clear: a manual trigger leading directly into a ClickUp node. This gives me a good starting point for the structure.\n\n**Step 1: The Trigger Node**\n\nEvery n8n workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The user explicitly requested a \"manual trigger.\" This is straightforward.\n\n* I'll need to add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. This is the perfect node type because it allows the workflow to be executed simply by clicking the \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n interface, or by hitting its test webhook. It's ideal for workflows that you want to run on demand rather than automatically based on an external event.\n* Looking at the provided JSON, the first node is indeed named \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is the default name for this type of trigger, and its `type` is correctly `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. Its `typeVersion` is 1, indicating a stable and standard version of this core node.\n* For `parameters`, I see an empty object `{}`. This is exactly what I'd expect for a manual trigger. It doesn't typically require any specific configuration parameters to function as a trigger; its purpose is simply to initiate the workflow when activated. Its `position` is [250, 300], which visually places it on the left side of the canvas, a standard starting point.\n\n**Step 2: The ClickUp Node**\n\nThe prompt states that the manual trigger should \"connects directly to a ClickUp node.\" So, the next logical step is to bring in the ClickUp integration.\n\n* For this, I'll need a node that can interact with the ClickUp API. The appropriate node `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.clickUp`. This node provides a set of operations to manage tasks, lists, folders, and other entities within ClickUp.\n* Checking the JSON, the second node is indeed named \"ClickUp\" and its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.clickUp`. Again, its `typeVersion` is 1, which means we're using a standard, well-established version of this integration.\n* Now, for its configuration, the `parameters` object contains fields like `list`, `name`, `team`, `space`, `folder`, and `additionalFields`. These are crucial for the ClickUp node to perform any meaningful action. In the provided JSON, all these fields are currently empty strings or empty objects. This tells me that while the node is *present* in the workflow, it's not yet configured to do anything specific, like creating a task in a particular list or updating an item. A user would need to populate these fields\u2014for example, selecting a specific ClickUp team, space, folder, and list, and then defining what action (e.g., \"create task\") and what data (e.g., \"Task name\") it should use.\n* Critically, there's also a `credentials` object with `{\"clickUpApi\": \"\"}`. This is where the API key or authentication token for ClickUp would be securely stored and linked to this node. It's empty in the JSON for security reasons, meaning the user will need to set up their ClickUp API credentials in n8n for this node to successfully connect to their ClickUp account. Without valid credentials, any attempt to use this node will fail.\n* Its `position` is [450, 300], placing it neatly to the right of the manual trigger.\n\n**Step 3: Connecting the Nodes**\n\nThe final piece is to ensure the \"direct connection\" specified in the prompt. This means the output of the manual trigger should feed directly into the input of the ClickUp node.\n\n* In the `connections` object of the JSON, I see an entry: `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"ClickUp\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This is precisely what's needed.\n* This connection states that the \"main\" output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node (our manual trigger) flows into the \"main\" input of the \"ClickUp\" node. The `index: 0` just specifies it's the first input, which is standard.\n* This connection ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, it emits an item (even if it's just a default, empty item that signals the start of the workflow). This item then triggers the ClickUp node to execute its configured operation. In this particular setup, the data passed from the manual trigger isn't inherently useful to the ClickUp node, but it serves as the signal to initiate the ClickUp action. The ClickUp node will rely on its own parameters for what it needs to do, not on specific data coming from the trigger.\n\nSo, in summary, this workflow is designed to be a simple, two-step process: initiated manually, then performing an action in ClickUp once configured." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a \"When chat message received\" trigger. This should connect to a \"Set\" node named \"Node 1\" outputting raw JSON `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`, which then connects to another \"Set\" node named \"Node 2\" outputting `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"When chat message received\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [320, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_1\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_2\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [580, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_3\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_4\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, -380]}], \"connections\": {\"When chat message received\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Node 1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow built. The first thing I always do is look at the trigger \u2013 how does this whole automation kick off? The prompt clearly states it should start with a \"When chat message received\" trigger. That's my starting point.\n\nSo, I'd bring in the \"When chat message received\" node. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` and `typeVersion` is 1.1. This particular node type is perfect because it's designed to listen for incoming chat messages, which aligns exactly with the user's requirement. It acts as an entry point for conversations, allowing the workflow to respond to user input from a chat interface. For its configuration, I see it has a `webhookId`, which would be an auto-generated identifier that ties this specific workflow instance to an external chat platform. I wouldn't need to manually configure that; it's typically handled by the platform when the workflow is activated.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt says it needs to connect to a \"Set\" node named \"Node 1\". A \"Set\" node is incredibly useful when you want to add, modify, or completely replace data items in the workflow. In this case, it sounds like we're injecting specific, predefined data.\n\nSo, I'd drag in a \"Set\" node. I'd name it \"Node 1\" as per the instructions. From the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion` is 3.4. For its configuration, the prompt specifies that it should output raw JSON `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`. To achieve this, I'd set the 'Mode' parameter to `raw`. This tells the Set node that I'm providing the exact JSON structure I want it to output, rather than building it field by field. Then, I would paste the specified JSON directly into the `jsonOutput` field. This ensures that when data flows into \"Node 1\", it gets completely replaced by or merged with this specific JSON structure.\n\nOnce \"Node 1\" is configured, I need to connect it. The connection from \"When chat message received\" to \"Node 1\" would be a standard `main` connection, meaning the output of the trigger node flows directly as the input to \"Node 1\". The JSON confirms this connection: `\"When chat message received\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This ensures that any data received by the chat trigger is passed along to \"Node 1\" to begin processing.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that \"Node 1\" then connects to another \"Set\" node named \"Node 2\". This is a similar operation to \"Node 1\", but with different data.\n\nSo, I'd add another \"Set\" node. I'd name it \"Node 2\", again matching the prompt. Its `type` is also `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion` 3.4. Just like \"Node 1\", it needs to output specific raw JSON: `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`. So, its 'Mode' parameter would also be set to `raw`, and the provided JSON would be placed in its `jsonOutput` field. The idea here is to add more predefined fields to the data that is flowing through the workflow. Since it's a \"Set\" node, it will effectively take the data from \"Node 1\", and then add or overwrite it with the fields specified in its own JSON output.\n\nThe connection from \"Node 1\" to \"Node 2\" would also be a `main` connection, passing the data from \"Node 1\" directly to \"Node 2\". The JSON confirms this as well: `\"Node 1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. So, data flows sequentially: trigger, then \"Node 1\" sets its data, and then that data (with \"Node 1\"'s additions) flows into \"Node 2\", which then further modifies or adds its own specified fields. This seems to complete the user's request for a linear flow of data manipulation using Set nodes." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow JSON named \"Notify Telegram\" that sends the message \"\u0422\u0435\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0435 \u0441\u043e\u043e\u0431\u0449\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0435 \u043e\u0442 n8n\" to chat ID \"489359810\" via a Telegram node when manually triggered.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Notify Telegram\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"chatId\": \"489359810\", \"text\": \"\\u0422\\u0435\\u0441\\u0442\\u043e\\u0432\\u043e\\u0435 \\u0441\\u043e\\u043e\\u0431\\u0449\\u0435\\u043d\\u0438\\u0435 \\u043e\\u0442 n8n \", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegram\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [220, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed from the ground up, thinking through each piece.\n\nSo, the request is to create an inactive n8n workflow called \"Notify Telegram\" that triggers manually and sends a specific message to a specific Telegram chat ID.\n\nFirst off, I need a name for this workflow, which is \"Notify Telegram\". That's a simple top-level property to set. The prompt also says it needs to be \"inactive,\" so I'll make sure the `active` flag at the workflow level is set to `false`. That means it won't run on its own when deployed; it'll need a manual push.\n\nNow, let's think about the actual flow. The core requirement is to \"send the message ... via a Telegram node when manually triggered.\" This immediately tells me I'll need two main components: a trigger and an action.\n\nFor the trigger, since it's specified as \"manually triggered,\" the obvious choice is a manual trigger node. This is perfect for when you just want to click a button in the n8n UI to start the workflow, perhaps for testing or one-off tasks.\n\nSo, the first node I'll add is the **Manual Trigger node**.\n* Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`.\n* The `typeVersion` will be `1`. This is the standard, simple version for this node. I don't foresee any other versions changing its basic \"click to run\" functionality drastically, so version 1 is perfectly fine.\n* For its `name`, the default \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" is very descriptive and clearly communicates its purpose within the n8n interface.\n* It doesn't require any specific `parameters` for configuration because its job is just to provide an input signal when manually activated.\n* I'll place it at position `[0, 0]` on the canvas \u2013 a good starting point.\n\nNow that I have my trigger, what's next? The prompt states \"sends the message ... via a Telegram node.\" This means the very next step after the manual trigger will be the Telegram action.\n\nSo, the second node I'll add is the **Telegram node**.\n* Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.telegram`. This is the specific node designed for interacting with the Telegram Bot API to send messages, files, and more. It's exactly what's needed here.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1.2`. This indicates a minor iteration, likely with small improvements or bug fixes over earlier versions. It's good to use the latest stable version if available, as it typically offers the best functionality.\n* For its `name`, \"Telegram\" is straightforward and clear.\n* I'll need to position it somewhere logical, like `[220, 0]`, so it's horizontally aligned with and to the right of the trigger node, indicating the flow direction.\n\nNow, let's configure this Telegram node. The prompt specifies two crucial pieces of information:\n1. The message to send: \"\u0422\u0435\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0435 \u0441\u043e\u043e\u0431\u0449\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0435 \u043e\u0442 n8n\"\n2. The chat ID: \"489359810\"\n\nSo, within the `parameters` of the Telegram node:\n* I'll set `chatId` to `\"489359810\"`. This is where the message will be delivered.\n* I'll set `text` to `\"\u0422\u0435\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0435 \u0441\u043e\u043e\u0431\u0449\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0435 \u043e\u0442 n8n\"`. This is the actual content of the message.\n* The `additionalFields` can remain empty, as no other specific Telegram message options (like preview links, reply markup, etc.) were requested.\n\nCrucially, for the Telegram node to work, it needs to authenticate with the Telegram API. This is handled via `credentials`. The JSON shows `credentials.telegramApi`, and within that, there would be an `id` and `name` pointing to a configured credential set. In a real scenario, this is where a Telegram bot token would be provided to n8n, allowing it to act on behalf of the bot. I won't specify the actual token value here, but this is a critical part of the setup.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The manual trigger should flow directly into the Telegram node. The `connections` object in the workflow JSON shows this: the `main` output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" (my manual trigger node) connects to the `main` input of the \"Telegram\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, it passes its output (which is just a signal in this case, no actual data content is needed from the trigger) to the Telegram node, prompting it to execute and send the message. The connection type is \"main,\" indicating a standard execution flow.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow is now designed to be inactive, wait for a manual trigger, and then send the specified message to the designated Telegram chat. All other properties like `createdAt`, `id`, `updatedAt`, `versionId`, and `settings` are typically managed by n8n itself or are default values for workflow metadata." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that triggers when a webhook with ID `f6d0071e-3cf9-49fd-8bbd-afdbea6b0c67` is called.

The first thing I always look for is what initiates the workflow \u2013 what's the trigger? The prompt clearly states, \"triggers when a webhook... is called.\" This immediately tells me the very first node we need in our workflow must be a Webhook node. It's the entry point for any external system to initiate our process.\n\nSo, I'd drag a **Webhook** node onto the canvas. Looking at the provided JSON, it's an `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the standard, reliable Webhook node, so version 1 is perfectly fine for this straightforward task.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Webhook node? The prompt gives us a very specific detail: a `webhookId` of `f6d0071e-3cf9-49fd-8bbd-afdbea6b0c67`. This is crucial. When a Webhook node is active, n8n generates a unique URL for it. By setting this `webhookId`, we're essentially telling n8n to ensure this specific workflow instance responds to requests made to a URL ending with this ID. I'd configure both the `webhookId` and the `path` parameter within the Webhook node's settings to be `f6d0071e-3cf9-49fd-8bbd-afdbea6b0c67`. While setting `path` to the same as `webhookId` might seem a bit redundant, it's a common practice to ensure clarity and consistency in the generated URL. We don't have any other specific requirements mentioned for the webhook, like handling particular HTTP methods or adding authentication beyond the ID itself, so the default options should work fine.\n\nOnce that Webhook node is set up and ready to receive incoming calls, what's the next step? The prompt says, \"It should then send an event to PostHog.\" This is a clear indicator that our next node will be a **PostHog** node. This node is designed specifically for interacting with the PostHog API to send analytics events.\n\nSo, I'd connect the main output of our Webhook node to the input of a new **PostHog** node. This establishes the flow: once the webhook receives data, it passes that data along to the PostHog node for processing.\n\nLet's configure the PostHog node now. Based on the JSON, this is an `n8n-nodes-base.postHog` node with `typeVersion: 1`. Again, version 1 is standard and should work perfectly.\n\nFirst, the PostHog node needs to know *how* to connect to our PostHog instance. The JSON indicates `credentials` set to `PostHog Credentials`. In a real-world scenario, this is where we'd have a pre-configured credential set in n8n, typically containing an API key and possibly the instance URL for our PostHog deployment. This ensures secure communication without embedding sensitive information directly in the workflow itself.\n\nNext, we need to define the event details. The prompt has two key requirements here:\n1. \"setting the event name to the `event` query parameter from the webhook.\"\n2. \"the distinct ID to 'n8n'.\"\n\nFor the `eventName`, this is where we need to dynamically pull data from the previous Webhook node. When the Webhook node receives an incoming request, any query parameters it receives are typically made available in the output JSON under a `query` property. So, if there's a query parameter named `event`, it would be accessible via an expression. The JSON shows `eventName: \"={{$json[\\\"query\\\"][\\\"event\\\"]}}\"`. This is exactly what we need! It tells n8n to look into the data from the previous node (`$json`), navigate to the `query` object, and then extract the value associated with the key `event`. This makes our event name dynamic, adapting to whatever is sent in the webhook call.\n\nFor the `distinctId`, the prompt is very specific: it should be `'n8n'`. This is a static value, so I'd simply type \"n8n\" directly into the `distinctId` field of the PostHog node.\n\nThe JSON also shows `additionalFields: {}`, which means we aren't adding any extra properties to the PostHog event beyond the name and distinct ID, which aligns with the prompt's requirements.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it! The workflow now starts with the Webhook trigger, extracts the necessary data from its input, and then uses that data to send a custom event to PostHog with the specified event name and distinct ID. The connection ensures the data flows seamlessly from the trigger to the action." } { "prompt": "Design an n8n workflow that reads a JSON file from `\/username\/users_spreadsheet.json`, processes its binary data, and then appends it to a Google Sheet.

The prompt specifies \"reads a JSON file from `\/username\/users_spreadsheet.json`\". So, my immediate thought is, \"How do I read a file from the local filesystem?\"\n\nLooking at the n8n nodes, there are a few options, like 'Read File' or 'Read Binary File'. Since the prompt also mentions \"processes its binary data\", and the provided JSON uses `readBinaryFile`, I'll go with that. This seems like the most direct way to get file content, especially if it's not just a simple text file that needs parsing into JSON objects right away, but rather the raw content itself that needs to be moved around.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a `readBinaryFile` node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Why this node:** Its purpose is specifically to read binary data from a file path. Even though the file is JSON, treating it as binary means we're dealing with its raw byte content, which aligns with the subsequent steps.\n* **Configuration:** The most critical parameter here is the `filePath`. Based on the prompt, this would be set to `\/username\/users_spreadsheet.json`. This tells n8n exactly where to find the file on the system where the workflow is executed.\n\nNow that I've read the file, the data from the `readBinaryFile` node will be available. The prompt mentions \"processes its binary data.\" This often implies that the data might need to be explicitly managed or moved within n8n's internal representation before another node can properly consume it, especially when dealing with raw file content. The provided JSON includes a `moveBinaryData` node right after reading the file.\n\nThis suggests that the data needs to be explicitly passed as binary to the next stage, perhaps because the Google Sheets node, in this specific configuration, expects the binary content itself rather than parsed JSON items. A `moveBinaryData` node is perfect for this. It essentially takes binary data from one field or stream and ensures it's correctly positioned or copied for subsequent nodes that expect binary input.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `read json file` node's main output to a new `moveBinaryData` node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Why this node:** It acts as a necessary intermediary to correctly handle and pass the binary output from the `readBinaryFile` node to the next step, ensuring the Google Sheets node receives the data in the expected binary format. It's often used when chaining binary operations or preparing binary data for specific consuming nodes.\n* **Configuration:** Looking at the JSON, it has an empty `options` parameter. This implies that no specific transformations or renaming of the binary data field are needed; it's simply moving the primary binary data created by the previous node along.\n\nFinally, the goal is to \"append it to a Google Sheet.\" This clearly points to a Google Sheets node configured for an append operation. The prompt gives very specific instructions for this: \"append data to sheet ID 'qwertz' within range A:C, with the `usePathForKeyRow` option enabled.\"\n\nSo, I'll connect the `move binary data 2` node's main output to a `Google Sheets` node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Why this node:** This is the dedicated node for interacting with Google Sheets, supporting various operations like reading, writing, updating, and, critically for this case, appending data.\n* **Configuration:**\n * `operation`: This must be set to `append`, as specified in the prompt.\n * `sheetId`: The prompt explicitly states `'qwertz'`, so that's what I'd put here. This identifies the specific Google Sheet document.\n * `range`: The prompt specifies `A:C`, which defines the columns where the data should be appended.\n * `options`: Within the options, `usePathForKeyRow` is set to `true`. This is an interesting and important setting. When dealing with binary data being appended, especially files like CSVs or sometimes even JSON (if it's structured in a certain way), this option tells the Google Sheets node to use the original file path (or a part of it) as a key or identifier, potentially in the first row or as metadata, when appending. It's often useful when the identity of the source file is important to record alongside its content in the sheet.\n * `authentication`: This would be configured to `oAuth2`. A valid Google Sheets OAuth2 credential would need to be selected or created here to allow n8n to connect to Google Sheets on behalf of the user. This credential is what grants n8n the necessary permissions to write to the specified sheet." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON containing a Taiga Trigger node, configured for `projectId` 385605, using the `taiga` credentials, and including its specific `webhookId`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"projectId\": 385605}, \"name\": \"Taiga Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.taigaTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [690, 260]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed from the ground up. The goal here is clearly to create a trigger that listens for events specifically from Taiga. This means our starting point, and likely the core of this simple workflow, will be a trigger node.\n\nGiven the prompt, it's pretty clear we'll need a `Taiga Trigger` node. This is the perfect choice because it's designed specifically to react to events happening within a Taiga project, acting as a webhook listener. It's the entry point for our workflow, waiting for Taiga to send it information. I'd add this one first, naturally, as it's the 'when' for our automation.\n\nLooking at the JSON, the `type` for this node is `n8n-nodes-base.taigaTrigger`, which confirms we're using the standard Taiga trigger node provided by n8n. The `typeVersion` is `1`. This tells me it's using the initial or a very stable version of this node's structure and capabilities. If there were other versions, they might offer different configuration options or behave slightly differently, but version 1 is what we're working with here.\n\nNow, for configuring this `Taiga Trigger` node.\nFirst, its `name` is simply \"Taiga Trigger\". This is a good, descriptive name, making it immediately clear what this node does when you look at the workflow canvas.\nThe `position` coordinates, `[690, 260]`, just tell n8n where to place this node visually on the canvas. It's not about functionality but about layout.\n\nNext, we see a `webhookId`. This is crucial for a trigger node that relies on webhooks. This particular value, `53939c3e-7dc6-4fdf-94d8-d29f92f8fa12`, is a unique identifier generated by n8n for this specific webhook endpoint. When we activate this workflow, n8n provides a URL that Taiga will send its events to, and this `webhookId` is a part of that URL. It ensures that Taiga knows exactly where to deliver the data and that n8n can correctly route it to this specific workflow and trigger instance. Without it, Taiga wouldn't know which workflow to notify.\n\nMoving into its `parameters`, we have `projectId: 385605`. This is a vital configuration detail. It tells the Taiga trigger to specifically listen for events *only* from the Taiga project identified by this ID. So, if anything happens in Taiga project 385605 \u2013 say, a new user story is created or a task is updated \u2013 this trigger will fire. Events from other projects wouldn't activate this particular workflow. This is excellent for ensuring our workflow only reacts to relevant activity and isn't overwhelmed by events from other projects.\n\nFinally, the `credentials`. Here we see `taigaCloudApi: \"taiga\"`. This refers to a set of pre-configured credentials that n8n uses to authenticate with the Taiga API. Instead of embedding an API key or other sensitive details directly into the node, n8n lets us define these securely in a separate credentials store and then reference them by a friendly name, in this case, \"taiga.\" This ensures that the workflow can securely communicate with Taiga to, for example, register the webhook or fetch additional project details if needed, without exposing sensitive information directly in the workflow JSON.\n\nSince this is a trigger workflow and the provided JSON only includes this single node, there aren't any connections to other nodes. This `Taiga Trigger` node is designed to capture data from an incoming webhook event, and then it would output that data for any subsequent nodes to process, if we were to add them. But for now, it stands as the sole entry point, ready to receive events from that specific Taiga project." } { "prompt": "Generate an active n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFile Collect contacts via SalesQL'.

The goal here is quite clear: we need to generate an active n8n workflow that acts as an endpoint to retrieve content from a specific Google Docs file and then return that content as a response. It also needs to be properly named and tagged.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to be triggered. The prompt explicitly states this workflow \"triggers via a webhook\". So, my very first thought is, \"Okay, I need a **Webhook** node.\" This will be our entry point.\n\nI'll place this **Webhook** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, typeVersion: 2) as the very first node in our workflow, typically at position [0, 0] on the canvas. Now, how do we configure it? The prompt specifies a very particular path: `onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/CollectContactsViaSalesQL`. This path needs to be configured in the `path` parameter of the webhook node so that when a request hits our n8n instance at that specific URL, this workflow will be activated.\n\nNext, I need to consider how this webhook will respond. The prompt says it \"responds to the webhook with the document's text content.\" This implies that the response won't be immediate from the webhook node itself, but rather handled by a subsequent node. So, for the `responseMode` parameter, I'll set it to `responseNode`. This tells the webhook node, \"Don't send a response yourself; another node down the line will handle it.\" This is crucial for controlling the data sent back.\n\nNow that we have our trigger set up, what's the next logical step? The workflow needs to \"retrieve content from a specific Google Docs URL.\" This immediately tells me I'm going to need a node that can interact with Google Docs. The obvious choice here is the **Google Docs** node.\n\nI'll connect the output of our `Webhook` node to the input of this new `Google Docs` node. This ensures that once the webhook is triggered, the execution flow passes directly to the Google Docs node.\n\nFor the `Google Docs` node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, typeVersion: 2), its primary purpose here is to *get* information from a document. So, for the `operation` parameter, I'll select `get`. Then, it needs to know *which* document to retrieve. The prompt gives us a specific Google Docs URL, so that URL would be configured in the `documentURL` parameter. This node also requires credentials to access Google Docs; a Google Docs OAuth2 API credential would be provided here to allow n8n to connect to the Google Docs service. I'll place this node at a position like [220, 0], just to the right of the webhook, visually showing the flow.\n\nAfter the `Google Docs` node successfully retrieves the content, what's the final action? The prompt states, \"respond to the webhook with the document's text content.\" This means we need a node specifically designed to send a response back to the original webhook caller. The perfect node for this is the **Respond to Webhook** node.\n\nI'll connect the output of the `Google Docs` node to the input of this new `Respond to Webhook` node. This ensures that the data retrieved from Google Docs is passed along to the node responsible for sending the response.\n\nFor the `Respond to Webhook` node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, typeVersion: 1.1), we need to configure how it sends the response. The prompt specifies \"the document's text content,\" so for the `respondWith` parameter, `text` is the correct choice. Now, for the `responseBody`, we need to dynamically insert the content that came out of the `Google Docs` node. Looking at the JSON, it expects the `Google Docs` node to output the document's content under a field named `content`. So, I'd configure the `responseBody` with an expression like `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression takes the data from the previous node (`$json`) and specifically extracts the value of its `content` property to use as the body of the response. I'll position this node at [440, 0], completing the linear flow.\n\nFinally, while not a node configuration, the prompt also states that the workflow should include specific tags: 'Onboarding', 'Files', 'Lg', and 'Day4'. These tags are workflow-level metadata that help with organization and searchability. So, I would ensure these tags are added to the workflow settings. The JSON already shows these present, which is great for organization.\n\nThis linear sequence of Webhook -> Google Docs -> Respond to Webhook seems to perfectly address all the requirements, ensuring the workflow triggers correctly, fetches the necessary data, and responds as expected." } { "prompt": "Start an n8n workflow with a manual trigger named 'When clicking \"Test workflow\"'.

The prompt specifies \"Start an n8n workflow with a manual trigger named 'When clicking \"Test workflow\"'\". That immediately tells me I need a trigger node, and specifically a manual one since it's about clicking \"Test workflow\".\n\nI'll go ahead and add a `Manual Trigger` node. Looking at the JSON, its type is confirmed as `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This is perfect for what's requested, as it allows me to manually initiate the workflow for testing or specific one-off runs. I'll name it exactly as specified: \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\". The position in the JSON shows it's placed at `[440, 380]`, which is a good starting point in the visual canvas. There aren't any specific parameters to configure for a basic manual trigger; it just needs to exist.\n\nNext, the prompt says to \"Connect it to a Switch node\". A `Switch` node is ideal for routing data down different paths based on certain conditions. This implies I'll be evaluating something to decide where the workflow goes next. I'll take the main output of my `Manual Trigger` node and connect it to the input of this new `Switch` node.\n\nLooking at the JSON, I see the `Switch` node is named \"Switch\" (simple enough), and its type is `n8n-nodes-base.switch` with `typeVersion 3`. This version is fairly recent and provides robust conditional logic capabilities. I'll place it, as per the JSON, at `[660, 380]`, which seems to position it nicely to the right of the trigger.\n\nNow, how should this `Switch` node be configured? The prompt mentions \"configured with three outputs\". This is key. When I look at the `parameters` for the `Switch` node in the JSON, I can see the `rules` array has three empty objects or default conditions within its `values` property. This confirms that indeed, three distinct output paths have been prepared for this node. Even if the conditions themselves aren't fully defined yet (like the first rule having a placeholder `equals` condition with empty values, and the others being completely empty), the structure is there for three potential branches. This setup means the `Switch` node is ready to send data out of one of its three designated output connectors based on which condition, if any, is met.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies \"sending the third output to an 'Edit Fields' Set node\". This tells me exactly which of the `Switch` node's outputs to use. The third output corresponds to index `2` in a zero-indexed array.\n\nSo, I'll draw a connection from the *third* output of the `Switch` node. Where does it go? To an `Edit Fields` node. Looking at the JSON, this node is named \"Edit Fields\", its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and it's using `typeVersion 3.3`. A `Set` node is perfect for this task because its primary function is to manipulate data by adding, removing, or modifying fields on the incoming items. The name \"Edit Fields\" perfectly aligns with the `Set` node's capability. Its position is set at `[840, 480]`, placing it a bit below and to the right of the Switch node, which visually separates this specific branch.\n\nThe parameters for the `Set` node are currently empty (`{\"options\": {}}`), which means no specific fields are being added or modified *yet*. However, the node is in place, ready to be configured later to add new data or modify existing fields as needed by the workflow's purpose. For now, it's just a placeholder for future data transformation on that specific third branch.\n\nAnd that completes the connections and node placements as described. The workflow starts manually, goes into a switch that has three potential outcomes, and only the third outcome is currently connected to a node that's prepared to edit the incoming data. The other two outputs from the Switch node are left unconnected, as indicated by the `null` values in the connections array for the Switch node's main output." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named \"Twilio Test\" that starts with a Twilio Trigger node. This trigger should activate when an inbound message is received and use existing Twilio API credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Twilio Test\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"updates\": [\"com.twilio.messaging.inbound-message.received\"]}, \"name\": \"Twilio Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.twilioTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 360]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get started on designing this n8n workflow. The request is pretty clear: an inactive workflow named \"Twilio Test\" that kicks off when an inbound Twilio message arrives, using existing credentials.\n\nMy first thought process immediately goes to the trigger. How do we get n8n to listen for something happening in Twilio? For real-time events like an inbound message, we absolutely need a dedicated trigger node.\n\nSo, I'd start by looking for a \"Twilio Trigger\" node. This seems like the perfect fit because it's designed specifically to integrate with Twilio's webhook system. I'd drag that onto the canvas. Looking at the provided JSON, its `type` is indeed `n8n-nodes-base.twilioTrigger` and it's `typeVersion: 1`. This is the right choice because it handles the intricacies of setting up a webhook listener for Twilio events automatically, rather than me having to configure a generic webhook and then manually parse the Twilio payload.\n\nNow, once I have the Twilio Trigger node in place, I need to configure it. The prompt specifies \"when an inbound message is received.\" This tells me exactly what kind of event the trigger should be listening for. I'd go into the node's settings, and there I'd find a parameter for `updates`. The JSON confirms this, showing `\"updates\": [\"com.twilio.messaging.inbound-message.received\"]`. This is crucial. By setting this specific update type, I'm telling the node, \"Only activate this workflow when Twilio sends a notification that an inbound message has arrived.\" This makes the trigger very precise and prevents it from firing on other Twilio events we might not care about for this particular workflow.\n\nNext, the prompt states \"use existing Twilio API credentials.\" This is straightforward. Within the Twilio Trigger node's configuration, there's a section for credentials. I would select the pre-existing Twilio API credentials that are already set up in n8n. The JSON indicates `credentials: {\"twilioApi\": {\"id\": \"...\", \"name\": \"Twilio account\"}}`, which confirms that a specific, pre-configured credential set is being used. This is vital because without proper authentication, n8n wouldn't be able to communicate securely with Twilio or receive webhook events from it. The name of the credential, \"Twilio account\" in this case, is just for human readability within n8n.\n\nFor the node's name, the JSON uses `\"name\": \"Twilio Trigger\"`. This is a perfectly descriptive name for this starting node, so I'd keep that as is.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that the workflow should be \"inactive.\" This is a workflow-level setting, not specific to a node. Once the single Twilio Trigger node is configured, I would ensure that the overall workflow is saved in an inactive state. The JSON reflects this with `active: false` at the top level of the workflow definition. This means the webhook endpoint for Twilio would be created, but the workflow wouldn't actively process any inbound messages until it's manually activated. This is a good practice for development, allowing us to build and save without immediately going live.\n\nSince the provided JSON only contains this single Twilio Trigger node and no connections, it seems this workflow is designed to simply *start* on an inbound message, perhaps as a test or a foundation for future logic. There are no downstream nodes, so no data needs to be passed to anything else at this point.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to react to a new order coming in from WooCommerce and then shoot a message over to Mattermost about it.\n\nFirst things first, how do we even *know* when a new order is created in WooCommerce? That's our trigger point. Thinking about n8n, for external services like WooCommerce, a common and reliable way to get real-time updates is through a webhook. So, I'd immediately lean towards a \"WooCommerce Trigger\" node.\n\nLet's place that first. I'll use the `WooCommerce Trigger` node, specifically of `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it's designed to listen for specific events happening within a WooCommerce store. When it's activated, it essentially sets up a webhook on the WooCommerce side that will notify n8n whenever the configured event occurs.\n\nNow, how do we configure this trigger? The user prompt states \"triggers when a new order is created\". So, naturally, I'd look at the event options available in the WooCommerce Trigger node. I'd set its `event` parameter to `order.created`. This tells the node to fire whenever a new order record is generated in WooCommerce. For credentials, it would, of course, need a pre-configured WooCommerce API credential set up, which the JSON shows as `wooCommerceApi: \"woocommerce\"`. There's also a `webhookId` which is automatically generated when the webhook is created, uniquely identifying this specific listener.\n\nAlright, so we have our trigger. When a new order comes in, the \"WooCommerce Trigger\" node will output data about that order. What's next? The prompt says \"Then, send a message to Mattermost\". This clearly points us towards a Mattermost integration.\n\nSo, the next node has to be something that can interact with Mattermost. An obvious choice is the `Mattermost` node itself. I'd drag that onto the canvas and connect it directly from the \"WooCommerce Trigger\" node's main output. This ensures that whatever data the WooCommerce trigger provides about the new order is immediately passed as input to our Mattermost node. The connection type would be `main` to `main`, meaning the primary output of the trigger flows into the primary input of the Mattermost node. This `Mattermost` node is also `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, for configuring the Mattermost node. This is where we construct the actual message. The prompt gives us a very specific format: ```{{$node[\"WooCommerce Trigger\"].json[\"billing\"][\"first_name\"]}} bought {{$node[\"WooCommerce Trigger\"].json[\"line_items\"][0][\"name\"]}}!```. This tells me a few things:\n1. It's an expression. n8n uses double curly braces `{{...}}` for expressions that dynamically pull data from previous nodes.\n2. It needs to access data from the \"WooCommerce Trigger\" node. This is done by `$node[\"WooCommerce Trigger\"].json`.\n3. It's looking for the customer's first name, which, based on typical WooCommerce order structures, would be found under `billing.first_name`. So, `billing[\"first_name\"]` makes sense.\n4. It's also looking for the name of the first item bought. WooCommerce order data typically has `line_items` as an array. So, to get the first item, we'd access `line_items[0]`, and then its `name` property. So, `line_items[0][\"name\"]` is perfect.\n\nSo, I'd set the `message` parameter of the Mattermost node to that exact expression: `={{$node[\"WooCommerce Trigger\"].json[\"billing\"][\"first_name\"]}} bought {{$node[\"WooCommerce Trigger\"].json[\"line_items\"][0][\"name\"]}}!`. The leading `=` sign indicates that the field contains an expression, not a static string.\n\nThe prompt also specifies the `channel ID`: `pj1p95ebei8g3ro5p84kxxuuio`. So, I'd simply paste that value into the `channelId` parameter of the Mattermost node.\n\nFinally, like the WooCommerce node, the Mattermost node also needs credentials to connect to the Mattermost API. The JSON shows `mattermostApi: \"Mattermost Credentials\"`, indicating that a Mattermost API credential has been pre-configured. Other parameters like `attachments` and `otherOptions` are left at their defaults, as they aren't specified by the user prompt.\n\nWith these two nodes configured and connected, we have a complete workflow. A new order in WooCommerce will trigger the first node, its data will flow to the second node, and a custom message will be constructed and sent to the specified Mattermost channel. It seems pretty straightforward and directly addresses all the requirements. The workflow is also set to `active: false` initially, which is common for new workflows, so it would need to be manually activated once everything is verified." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object for an inactive workflow named \"My workflow\" with `executionOrder: v1`, using `d98a401b1e7a4160acf2ea4acb3d28ca611f751211750a3ceae3c73e73f74805` as its meta instance ID, and all other arrays and objects initialized as empty.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow\", \"nodes\": [], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start conceptualizing this workflow from the ground up.\n\nFirst things first, I always begin by thinking about the overall structure of an n8n workflow. It's fundamentally a JSON object, and certain top-level keys are absolutely essential for it to be a valid workflow definition.\n\nThe user prompt gives me a name: \"My workflow\". So, that's the very first piece of information I'd put down. I'd start by creating a top-level `name` property and setting its value to \"My workflow\". This is crucial for identifying the workflow within n8n.\n\nNext, I look at the core of any workflow: the nodes. The prompt explicitly says \"all other arrays and objects initialized as empty\". This is quite straightforward. If I were building a functional workflow, this is where I'd add my triggers, my logic, my data manipulations, and my actions. But for this specific request, the `nodes` array will be empty. So, I'll add an empty `nodes` array right after the `name`. I'd typically also consider the `type` and `typeVersion` for each node, but since there are no nodes, that's not a concern here.\n\nFollowing on from nodes, if there are nodes, there are usually connections between them. Again, the prompt dictates \"all other arrays and objects initialized as empty\". So, the `connections` object will also be empty. It makes perfect sense; if there are no nodes, there can't be any connections between them.\n\nThen there's `pinData`. This is less about the workflow's logic and more about its visual layout within the n8n editor. Since we're building an empty workflow, and adhering to the \"empty arrays and objects\" rule, `pinData` will also be an empty object. No nodes means no visual positioning to define.\n\nNow, let's consider the workflow's state. The prompt specifies \"an inactive workflow\". This is a very clear instruction. So, I need to add an `active` property and set its boolean value to `false`. This ensures the workflow won't automatically execute if it's imported or started.\n\nThe prompt also specifies some settings: `executionOrder: v1`. This needs to go into a `settings` object. So, I'll create a `settings` object and within it, define `executionOrder` as \"v1\". This determines how n8n processes the execution flow, and \"v1\" is a common, stable version.\n\nThere's also a `versionId`. While not explicitly stated as \"empty\" in the same way arrays\/objects are, the example JSON shows it as an empty string. This often refers to an internal versioning system n8n might use, and for a brand new, empty workflow, an empty string is perfectly fine as a starting point. It's not a dynamic value I'd invent, so an empty string aligns with the general \"minimal\" approach.\n\nCrucially, the prompt provides a specific `meta instance ID`: `d98a401b1e7a4160acf2ea4acb3d28ca611f751211750a3ceae3c73e73f74805`. This piece of information belongs within a `meta` object. So, I'll create a `meta` object and inside it, add an `instanceId` property with the given long string. This `instanceId` is unique to a particular copy of the workflow, and it's essential for n8n to track it.\n\nFinally, there are `tags`. These are useful for organization and filtering workflows within the n8n UI. The prompt implies \"all other arrays and objects initialized as empty,\" so the `tags` array will also be empty. If this workflow were part of a larger system, I might add tags like \"utility\" or \"inactive\" for better management, but for this specific request, an empty array is correct.\n\nSo, just to recap my mental build process: I started with the name, then moved to the core components (nodes, connections) making sure they were empty as requested. Then I set the `active` status, configured specific `settings`, and finally added the unique `meta` information and left `pinData` and `tags` as empty placeholders as per the general \"empty\" instruction. Everything aligns perfectly with the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a \"Schedule Trigger\" node named \"A\", which then connects to a \"Set\" node named \"B\".

The prompt clearly states it should start with a \"Schedule Trigger\" node. This is perfect for setting up a workflow that runs periodically without any manual intervention.\n\nSo, I'll begin by adding a **Schedule Trigger** node.\n* Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`.\n* Looking at the provided JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1.2`.\n* I'll make sure to name this node \"A\", as requested.\n* For its configuration, the JSON specifies `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This means it will use the default scheduling rule, which often implies triggering every minute or on some default interval unless more specific settings (like hourly, daily, or specific cron expressions) are configured. For this workflow, it simply acts as the automated starting point.\n* In terms of layout, I'll place it at `[0, 0]` on the canvas, which is the starting point in the top-left corner.\n\nNext, the prompt says that node \"A\" connects to a \"Set\" node named \"B\". A \"Set\" node is incredibly useful in n8n for defining or modifying data. It allows me to create new fields or update existing ones, which is precisely what's needed for the next step.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Set** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`.\n* Its `typeVersion` is `3.4`, according to the JSON.\n* I'll name it \"B\".\n* The key requirement for node \"B\" is \"a single empty string assignment.\" This is where the Set node shines. I'd go into its parameters and add a new assignment. The JSON shows `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"3d8f0810-84f0-41ce-a81b-0e7f04fd88cb\", \"name\": \"\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}}`. This means I need to create a new property where the property's name is an empty string, and its value is also an empty string, and its type is explicitly set as 'string'. This might seem a bit unusual to have an empty name, but it directly matches the requirement and the JSON structure.\n* For its position, it needs to be arranged horizontally after node \"A\". The JSON puts it at `[220, 0]`, which is 220 units to the right, keeping it on the same horizontal line.\n\nNow, I need to connect these two nodes. The \"Schedule Trigger\" simply outputs a signal (an empty item, typically) to start the workflow. This signal then flows into the \"Set\" node.\n* The connection from \"A\" to \"B\" will be a standard \"main\" connection. The JSON confirms this with `\"A\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"B\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This means the output from node \"A\" will feed directly into the input of node \"B\".\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that node \"B\" connects to another \"Set\" node named \"C\". This suggests a sequence of data processing steps. Even if \"C\" doesn't perform a complex operation right now, it acts as the next stage in the workflow.\n\nSo, I'll add another **Set** node.\n* Again, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`.\n* And its `typeVersion` is `3.4`.\n* This one will be named \"C\".\n* For its configuration, the JSON shows `{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}}`. This indicates that currently, no specific assignments are being made within node \"C\" itself. It's essentially receiving the data from node \"B\" and passing it along, or it's a placeholder for future data manipulation or transformation logic that might be added later.\n* To maintain the horizontal layout, I'll place this node at `[440, 0]`, which is another 220 units to the right of node \"B\".\n\nLastly, I need to connect node \"B\" to node \"C\". The data items that were processed by node \"B\" (now containing the empty string assignment) will be passed along to node \"C\".\n* The connection from \"B\" to \"C\" will also be a standard \"main\" connection. The JSON shows `\"B\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"C\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This means the data output from node \"B\" will flow into node \"C\", allowing \"C\" to further process those items if needed.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow as specified: a scheduled trigger feeding into two sequential \"Set\" operations, all arranged neatly in a horizontal line." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFileFiveStepFramework\" that triggers via a webhook at \"Onboarding\/PromptEngineer\/FiveStepFramework\", fetches the full content of the Google Doc at \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/14DkVvUQphEzKE9bDtYPrQTAoHxheBQNT0i1nUAKOcHI\/edit\", and sends this content back as the webhook response.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFileFiveStepFramework\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"Onboarding\/PromptEngineer\/FiveStepFramework\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/14DkVvUQphEzKE9bDtYPrQTAoHxheBQNT0i1nUAKOcHI\/edit\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The goal here is pretty clear: trigger on a webhook, grab some content from a Google Doc, and then send that content right back as the webhook response.\n\nSo, first things first, we need a way to actually kick off this workflow. The prompt specifically mentions \"triggers via a webhook.\" That makes the choice obvious. I'll start by adding a **Webhook** node. This is going to be our entry point. The node type for this would be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and based on the standard configuration I'd go with `typeVersion: 2`.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Webhook node? The prompt states the path as \"Onboarding\/PromptEngineer\/FiveStepFramework\". So, I'd set the `path` parameter to that specific path. This means when a request hits the n8n webhook URL with this particular path appended, our workflow will start. Another crucial setting for this Webhook node is the `responseMode`. Since we intend to send a response back *after* processing some data, we need to set `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node that it shouldn't send an immediate response, but rather wait for a subsequent \"Respond to Webhook\" node to handle the output.\n\nWith the trigger in place, the next logical step is to actually get the content we need. The prompt says \"fetches the full content of the Google Doc at `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/14DkVvUQphEzKE9bDtYPrQTAoHxheBQNT0i1nUAKOcHI\/edit`\". This points directly to the need for a Google Docs integration. So, I'd connect the main output of our Webhook node to a new **Google Docs** node.\n\nFor this Google Docs node, the node type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and I'd typically pick `typeVersion: 2` for current compatibility. Inside its parameters, we need to specify what we want to do. The goal is to \"fetch the full content\", which translates to a `get` `operation`. So, I'd set the `operation` parameter to `get`. Then, there's the `documentURL` parameter where a specific Google Doc URL would be configured. Of course, to access a Google Doc, this node would also require proper authentication, so a Google Docs OAuth2 API credential would need to be linked under its `credentials` property. This allows n8n to connect to Google Docs on our behalf. When this node executes, it will fetch the content of the specified document, and typically output it in a field like `content`.\n\nFinally, once we have the document's content, the prompt's last requirement is to \"sends this content back as the webhook response.\" This is exactly what the **Respond to Webhook** node is for. So, I'll connect the main output of our Google Docs node to a new **Respond to Webhook** node.\n\nThis Respond to Webhook node has a node type of `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and I'd use `typeVersion: 1.1`. The critical configuration here is what content to send back and in what format. Since we want to send the *full content*, and it's likely text from the document, I'd set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`. For the `responseBody` parameter, we need to pull the content from the previous Google Docs node. Assuming the Google Docs node outputs the document's text in a field named `content` (which is standard behavior for the 'get' operation), I would use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression dynamically takes the value of the `content` field from the incoming JSON data (which comes from the Google Docs node) and sets it as the body of our webhook response.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps it up. The flow goes from receiving the request, getting the data, and then sending it back. Seems solid." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, retrieves all people from the Customer Datastore, and then uses a Set node to count the number of returned items, storing it as `itemCount` and keeping only that property.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Execute Workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 400]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}, \"name\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 400]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"itemCount\", \"value\": \"={{ $input.all().length }}\"}]}, \"options\": {}, \"keepOnlySet\": true}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1260, 400]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Execute Workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is pretty clear: manual trigger, get all people from the Customer Datastore, then count them and keep just that count.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, something to kick it off. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manually triggers\" workflow. So, that immediately tells me I'll need a node that allows for manual execution. Looking at the available nodes, the most straightforward choice for this is the **Manual Trigger** node. It's a foundational node for workflows that aren't listening for external events but rather run when you click a button.\nI'll add the **Manual Trigger** node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`. Its parameters are simple; it doesn't need any specific configuration other than just being there to start the process.\n\nOkay, so we've got our starting point. What's next? The prompt says \"retrieves all people from the Customer Datastore.\" This sounds like an integration with a specific data source. n8n has a variety of nodes for different services, and here it mentions a \"Customer Datastore.\" Given it's likely a training or example specific datastore, I'll look for a node that directly interfaces with it. And indeed, there's a node named **Customer Datastore (n8n training)**. This seems to be exactly what's needed.\nI'll connect the `main` output of the **Manual Trigger** node to this new **Customer Datastore (n8n training)** node. This ensures that once the workflow is manually triggered, it proceeds to retrieve the data.\nNow, for the configuration of this node, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` and `typeVersion: 1`. The prompt states \"retrieves *all* people.\" So, looking at the operations available for such a node, \"getAllPeople\" sounds like the perfect fit. I'll set its `operation` parameter to `getAllPeople`. This tells the node exactly what action to perform against the datastore. There aren't any other parameters mentioned, so it's a simple call to get all records.\n\nOnce we've retrieved all the people from the Customer Datastore, the prompt requires us to \"count the number of returned items, storing it as `itemCount` and keeping only that property.\" This is a data manipulation step. We'll have a list of items coming out of the Customer Datastore node, and we need to transform that into a single item containing just the count.\nFor data manipulation, especially when you want to add new properties, rename, or filter properties, the **Set** node is usually the go-to. It's incredibly versatile for shaping data.\nSo, I'll connect the `main` output of the **Customer Datastore (n8n training)** node to a new **Set** node. This means all the people records retrieved will be passed as input to the Set node.\nNow, let's configure this **Set** node. It's of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 1`.\nThe goal is to count the items. When data flows into a node in n8n, it often comes as an array of items. To count the number of items in an input, I can use an expression. The `length` property of an array is perfect for this. Since I want to count all items that came into this node, I'll use `$input.all().length`. The `$input.all()` part retrieves all items passed into the node, and `.length` then gives me their total count.\nI need to store this count as a new property named `itemCount`. So, in the Set node's `values` parameters, under the `number` type (since it's a count), I'll add a new property. I'll name it `itemCount`, and for its `value`, I'll use that expression: `={{ $input.all().length }}`. The `{{ }}` syntax indicates an expression.\nFinally, the prompt specifies \"keeping only that property.\" This is crucial. If I just add the `itemCount` without this, the Set node would simply add `itemCount` to *each* of the incoming items, and all the original people data would still be there, which isn't what we want. We want *only* the count. The **Set** node has a handy option called `Keep Only Set` (or `keepOnlySet` in the JSON). By enabling this, the node will discard all incoming properties and items, and only output the new properties defined within the Set node itself. This will result in a single item containing just our `itemCount` property, which is exactly what was requested.\nI also notice `executeOnce: true` is set for this Set node. This makes sense for a counting operation. If we have multiple input items and we want a single aggregate count, executing the Set node logic just once for all inputs (or the first input if not all are relevant, but in this case, `all()` handles it) is efficient and correct for producing a single output item with the total count. If it were `executeOnce: false`, it would potentially run the count expression for each incoming item, which isn't what we need when summing up *all* items into a single number.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps it up. The workflow starts, gets the data, counts it, and outputs only the count." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow that manually triggers a Bannerbear node.

The user's request is quite clear: a manual trigger, followed by a Bannerbear action to generate an image with specific details.\n\nThe very first thing I need to think about is how this workflow is going to *start*. The prompt explicitly states, \"manually triggers\". This immediately tells me I need a trigger node that allows a user to initiate the workflow themselves. Looking through the available n8n nodes, the `Manual Trigger` node is the perfect fit for this. It's designed exactly for this purpose \u2013 a simple button click to kick things off. So, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the current standard for this basic trigger, and I don't anticipate any version-specific behavior changes for such a simple node. I'll probably name it something descriptive like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's clear what it does. Its parameters are usually empty as it's just a simple trigger.\n\nNext, after the workflow is manually triggered, what's the core action we need to perform? The prompt says, \"manually triggers a Bannerbear node. The Bannerbear node should generate an image...\" This is very direct. I know I'll need a `Bannerbear` node. This node is specifically designed to interact with the Bannerbear API to create images, videos, and so on. So, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.bannerbear`. Like the manual trigger, its `typeVersion` is `1`. I'll name it simply \"Bannerbear\".\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The `Manual Trigger` needs to flow directly into the `Bannerbear` node. This is a straightforward `main` connection. When the manual trigger is activated, it will pass a single, empty item to the `Bannerbear` node, signaling it to execute. There's no complex data mapping needed here; it's simply about initiating the next step.\n\nWith the `Bannerbear` node in place, I need to configure it according to the prompt's specifications.\n\nThe prompt states, \"generate an image from template '8BK3vWZJ7Wl5Jzk1aX'\". So, within the Bannerbear node's parameters, I'll need to locate the `Template ID` field. I'll then input the provided ID, '8BK3vWZJ7Wl5Jzk1aX', directly into that field. This tells Bannerbear exactly which template to use for the image generation.\n\nNext, the prompt specifies modifications to layers: \"setting the 'message' layer's text to 'this is some text' with a text color of #3097BC and a background of #28A96F\". This requires using the \"Modifications\" section within the Bannerbear node. I'd typically add a new modification entry. For this entry, the `name` field would be set to `message`, which corresponds to the layer name on the Bannerbear template. Then, for that `message` layer, I need to set its `text` to \"this is some text\". Additionally, the prompt specifies colors. So, I'd find the `color` field and input '#3097BC', and for the `background` field, I'd input '#28A96F'. This ensures the generated image has the specified text with the correct styling. These specific settings fall under the `modificationsUi.modificationsValues` array in the JSON.\n\nFinally, the prompt says, \"and wait for the image to be generated\". This is an important detail. Bannerbear, by default, might just trigger the image generation process and return immediately. But for many workflows, you need to wait until the image is actually ready to download or use. The Bannerbear node has an option for this, usually found under \"Additional Fields\", called `Wait for Image`. I need to make sure this `waitForImage` parameter is set to `true`. This way, the workflow execution will pause at the Bannerbear node until the image generation is complete and the image URL is available.\n\nOne last crucial piece of information from the prompt is \"using 'bannerbear_creds'\". This refers to the credentials that allow n8n to authenticate with the Bannerbear API. In the Bannerbear node's settings, there's a `Credentials` section. Here, I would select or create the Bannerbear API credentials. The prompt gives a generic name, `bannerbear_creds`, so I'd ensure that the workflow is configured to use a credential entry with that identifier, which would contain the actual API key for Bannerbear. I wouldn't specify the actual API key value here, just reference the configured credential. This ensures secure handling of sensitive information.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers all the requirements for this workflow.

It should then include a 'Set' node that populates the 'body' field with an XML string representing a library containing multiple books with their titles, authors, publication years, and ISBNs.\"\n\n**First, the Trigger:**\nAny workflow needs a starting point. The prompt explicitly states \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This makes my choice incredibly straightforward. I'll look for a trigger node that I can manually activate.\n* **Node Type:** `Manual Trigger` (specifically `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`).\n* **Type Version:** `1`. This is the standard, widely used version for this node, and it perfectly serves the purpose of initiating a workflow with a simple click.\n* **Reasoning:** This node is ideal because it allows me to test the workflow during development by simply clicking \"Test workflow\" in the n8n editor. For a production scenario where someone needs to kick off a process ad-hoc, it's also the go-to choice. There are no specific parameters to configure for this node; its default behavior of waiting for a manual prompt is exactly what's needed. I'd give it a descriptive name like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" to make its purpose clear at a glance.\n\n**Next, the Data Manipulation:**\nThe prompt then says, \"It should then include a 'Set' node that populates the 'body' field with an XML string...\" This tells me exactly what the next node should be and what its primary function is. I need a node that can create or modify data within the workflow item.\n* **Node Type:** `Set` (specifically `n8n-nodes-base.set`).\n* **Type Version:** `3.2`. This is a more recent version of the `Set` node. While its core functionality remains consistent across versions \u2013 adding or modifying fields \u2013 newer versions often bring minor UI improvements, performance optimizations, or bug fixes. For this task, the basic \"set a field\" capability is what's crucial.\n* **Connection:** This `Set` node needs to execute *after* the `Manual Trigger`. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` to the `main` input of the `Set` node. This ensures that when the workflow is triggered, the data modification step happens next.\n* **Reasoning and Configuration:** The `Set` node is the perfect tool here because its entire purpose is to manipulate data items. I need to populate a specific field named 'body'.\n * Inside the `Set` node's parameters, I'd go to the \"Fields\" section. I'd add a new field.\n * For the `name` of this new field, I'd type in `body`. This directly addresses the \"populates the 'body' field\" requirement.\n * Then, for the `value` of the `body` field, the prompt specifies \"an XML string representing a library containing multiple books with their titles, authors, publication years, and ISBNs.\" This means I'll need to use a string type input for the value.\n * I'd paste the entire XML structure directly into the `stringValue` field. The XML itself defines a root `library` element. Inside, there are multiple `book` elements, each containing sub-elements for `title`, `author`, `publication_year`, and `isbn`. This matches the content requirements precisely. For example, the first book would be `Introduction to XML` by `John Doe`, published in `2020` with ISBN `1234567890`, and so on for the other books. The `<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>` declaration at the beginning is important for proper XML parsing later if this data were to be consumed by another system.\n * I don't need any special options or expressions here; a plain string value is all that's required to hold the XML.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The workflow is simple: trigger it, and then the 'Set' node creates an item (or takes the incoming item and adds to it) with a 'body' field containing the specified XML string." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow JSON titled \"My workflow 3\" (ID: 19gOaHMHdZE6J3Eu) for owner \"mvsilva@padtec.com.br\" (Project ID: BbalulLcG5rqgvFJ).

The request is pretty specific, so I'll walk through my thought process on how I'd build it, focusing on each piece.\n\nFirst off, the user wants an inactive workflow named \"My workflow 3\". That's a good starting point. It means the overall workflow configuration will have `active: false` right from the beginning. The given ID, \"19gOaHMHdZE6J3Eu\", and the owner details \"mvsilva@padtec.com.br\" with Project ID \"BbalulLcG5rqgvFJ\" are also global workflow properties that I'd ensure are set correctly in the workflow's main JSON structure. These are just identifying attributes, so no complex logic there, just assigning the given values.\n\nNow, onto the actual functionality. The core requirement is to trigger something based on Zendesk tickets. This immediately tells me I need a trigger node, and specifically a \"Zendesk Trigger\" node. This is the perfect node type because it's built to listen for events directly from Zendesk, acting as the entry point for the workflow when specific conditions are met. I'd place it at the starting position, typically [0,0] on the canvas, as it's the very first step.\n\nSo, the node type is `n8n-nodes-base.zendeskTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. Why version 1? Well, that's what's in the provided JSON, and for a simple trigger like this, it's generally stable and does what's needed. If there were newer versions, I might consider if they offer features or bug fixes relevant to this specific task, but sticking to `typeVersion: 1` as given is the most direct approach.\n\nNext, I need to configure this Zendesk Trigger node. The prompt specifies \"OAuth2 authentication.\" This is important for security and connectivity. So, within the node's parameters, I'd make sure the `authentication` field is set to `\"oAuth2\"`. This tells n8n how to establish a secure connection to Zendesk.\n\nFollowing the authentication, the workflow needs to connect to the right Zendesk account. The prompt clearly states \"SandBox Zendesk account\" credentials. So, under the `credentials` for this node, I would select the pre-configured credential that has the name \"SandBox Zendesk account\". This credential contains all the necessary OAuth2 tokens and domain information without exposing them in the workflow definition directly. It's good practice to keep sensitive details separate like this.\n\nNow, let's consider *what* this trigger should react to and *what data* it should retrieve. The prompt says it should retrieve \"ticket.id\" for \"new\" tickets.\nFor the \"new\" tickets part, I'd look at the `conditions` object within the node's parameters. I want the trigger to fire specifically when a ticket is created or enters a 'new' status. So, I'd set up a condition where `value` is `\"new\"`. This ensures the workflow only starts for relevant events, preventing unnecessary executions.\n\nAs for retrieving \"ticket.id,\" I'd configure the `options` within the node's parameters. There's usually a setting to specify which fields to include in the output data. I want to keep the data payload light if possible, so I'd explicitly list `[\"ticket.id\"]` under the `fields` option. This means when the trigger fires, it will only return the ID of the new ticket, which is exactly what was requested.\n\nAt this point, with the Zendesk Trigger configured as the sole node, the workflow structure is complete according to the requirements. It's inactive, correctly named, has the specified ID and owner, and contains the single Zendesk Trigger node set up with OAuth2, specific credentials, and conditions to listen for new ticket IDs. There are no subsequent nodes mentioned in the prompt or the provided JSON, so the thought process ends here, as the initial trigger setup is done." } { "prompt": "Generate a workflow named 'GetOnboardingFileAI' that, when triggered by a webhook, fetches the content from the Google Doc at `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1DCysJeNCkNVxDINeuEoOlEeoyHsuvpajMnajrkM3E8Y\/view` and sends it back as a text response to the initial webhook.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFileAI agent definition\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"a793374f-13f1-4bb2-b7d6-f709893abd7d\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1DCysJeNCkNVxDINeuEoOlEeoyHsuvpajMnajrkM3E8Y\/view\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think through how we'd build this workflow step by step, keeping the user's request in mind.\n\nThe prompt states we need a workflow named 'GetOnboardingFileAI' that gets triggered by a webhook, fetches content from a specific Google Doc, and then sends that content back as a text response to the initial webhook.\n\nSo, the very first thing we need is an entry point, something to kick off the whole process. Since the prompt clearly states \"when triggered by a webhook,\" our initial thought immediately goes to a Webhook node.\n\n1. **Node: Webhook**\n * **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` (typeVersion: 2)\n * **Why this node**: This is the standard way to expose an n8n workflow as an API endpoint, allowing external systems to trigger it. It perfectly matches the \"triggered by a webhook\" requirement.\n * **Configuration**:\n * We'd need to set a `path` for this webhook, which essentially becomes part of the URL that external systems will call. It's an identifier for this specific endpoint.\n * Crucially, the prompt says \"sends it back as a text response to the initial webhook.\" This tells us how the webhook should behave regarding its response. We should set its `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This means the webhook won't automatically send a response until a dedicated \"Respond to Webhook\" node is reached later in the workflow. If we left it as `lastNode`, it would try to send the output of the final node, which isn't what we want when we have a specific response format and content in mind. So, `responseNode` gives us that control.\n\nNow that we have our trigger set up, what's next? The prompt says \"fetches the content from the Google Doc.\" This clearly points us towards an integration with Google Docs.\n\n2. **Node: Google Docs**\n * **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` (typeVersion: 2)\n * **Why this node**: This node is specifically designed to interact with Google Docs, allowing us to perform operations like reading, writing, or getting details about documents. It's the ideal choice for fetching content from a Google Doc.\n * **Connection**: This node needs to execute *after* the webhook triggers, so we'll connect the `Webhook` node's main output to the `Google Docs` node's main input.\n * **Configuration**:\n * We need to specify the `operation`. In this case, we want to \"get\" the document content.\n * Then, we'd configure the `documentURL`. This is where the specific Google Doc URL provided in the prompt would be entered. This tells the node exactly which document to retrieve.\n * Of course, to access Google Docs, this node would require `credentials`. An appropriate Google Docs API account would be selected here to authenticate the request.\n\nFinally, we've triggered the workflow and fetched the content from the Google Doc. The last part of the prompt is \"sends it back as a text response to the initial webhook.\" This is where that `responseNode` setting on our initial Webhook node comes into play.\n\n3. **Node: Respond to Webhook**\n * **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` (typeVersion: 1.1)\n * **Why this node**: As discussed, since our initial `Webhook` node's `responseMode` is set to `responseNode`, we need a dedicated node to actually send the response back. This node is purpose-built for that.\n * **Connection**: This node must run *after* the Google Docs node has successfully fetched the content. So, we'll connect the `Google Docs` node's main output to the `Respond to Webhook` node's main input. This ensures the document content is available when this node executes.\n * **Configuration**:\n * The prompt specifies \"sends it back as a text response,\" so we'll set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`.\n * For the `responseBody`, we need to dynamically pull the content that the `Google Docs` node retrieved. When the Google Docs node successfully fetches a document, it typically outputs the content in a field, often named `content`. So, using an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` is perfect here. This tells the node to take the value from the `content` property of the data item it received from the previous `Google Docs` node and use it as the response body.\n\nAnd that would complete the workflow. It starts with the trigger, gets the necessary data, and then sends it back, fulfilling all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'My workflow 8' that starts with an 'n8n Form Trigger' node configured with a unique path, a form titled 'test', and a single 'test' field.

The request is pretty specific, so I'll be working through the requirements and the provided JSON to build this out piece by piece.\n\nFirst off, the prompt specifies the workflow should be named \"My workflow 8\". Looking at the JSON, I can see `{\"name\": \"My workflow 8\"}` at the top level, which confirms this. This is good; it helps keep things organized, especially when you have many workflows. Also, it needs to be inactive, which I see reflected in the JSON with `\"active\": false`. That's a crucial setting because it means the workflow won't automatically run or expose its endpoints until we explicitly activate it later. For design and testing phases, having it inactive by default is smart.\n\nNow, let's think about the starting point. The prompt clearly states it \"starts with an 'n8n Form Trigger' node.\" This immediately tells me what the first node in our canvas will be. An 'n8n Form Trigger' is perfect for scenarios where you want to receive data submitted through a web form, essentially acting as an inbound webhook specifically tailored for form submissions. It's a very straightforward way to get data into your workflow from an external source without needing complex API integrations right off the bat, as long as it's an n8n-hosted form.\n\nSo, I'll place an 'n8n Form Trigger' node on the canvas. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger`, and I see it's `typeVersion: 2`. Version 2 is pretty standard and robust for this node type; it generally means it includes the latest features and stability fixes compared to older versions.\n\nNext, I need to configure this 'n8n Form Trigger' node. The prompt says it should be \"configured with a unique path.\" Looking at the JSON, the `path` parameter within the trigger's configuration is set to `d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a`. This path is essential because it forms part of the URL where the form will be accessible. By assigning a unique identifier like this UUID, we ensure that this specific form trigger has its own distinct endpoint, preventing conflicts with other forms or webhooks. This is how n8n differentiates between different form submissions or webhooks it's listening for.\n\nThen, the form needs to be \"titled 'test'\". So, I'll set the `formTitle` parameter in the node to `\"test\"`. This is what will be displayed as the title of the form when someone accesses its URL. It's important for user clarity.\n\nAnd it needs \"a single 'test' field.\" For the input fields of the form, the JSON shows `formFields: {\"values\": [{\"fieldLabel\": \"test\"}]}`. This means there will be just one input field on the form, and its visible label to the user will be \"test\". This directly corresponds to the data we expect to receive when someone fills out and submits this form.\n\nNow, for testing, the prompt requires this trigger to \"output two sample items: 'First item' with `code: 1` and 'Second item' with `code: 2`\". This is where the `pinData` section of the overall workflow JSON comes in. The `pinData` for \"n8n Form Trigger\" specifies `[{\"json\": {\"name\": \"First item\", \"code\": 1}}, {\"json\": {\"name\": \"Second item\", \"code\": 2}}]`. This is incredibly useful during workflow development. It means that when I manually test this workflow or step through it in the editor, these two sample items will be injected as if they were real form submissions. This allows me to build and test the subsequent nodes without actually needing to fill out the form every time. It's a simulated output for development purposes, very practical.\n\nWith the 'n8n Form Trigger' configured, the prompt then states that \"its output should connect to a 'Switch' node.\" This gives me the next node to add to the workflow. A 'Switch' node, of type `n8n-nodes-base.switch` and also `typeVersion: 2`, is a fundamental control flow node. Its primary purpose is to route data conditionally down different branches of the workflow based on certain criteria. Although the JSON for the Switch node currently shows empty parameters (`{}`), meaning no specific conditions are set yet, its presence indicates that the intention is to introduce conditional logic later on. It's a placeholder for future decision-making based on the data coming from the form.\n\nTo connect them, I'll draw a connection from the 'n8n Form Trigger' node's main output to the 'Switch' node's main input. The `connections` section of the JSON confirms this: `{\"n8n Form Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means all the data output by the 'n8n Form Trigger', including our sample items or actual form submissions, will be passed directly as input to the 'Switch' node.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the initial setup. We have the named workflow, it's inactive, it starts with a correctly configured form trigger with its path, title, and field, and it's set up to provide specific sample data for development. This output then flows directly into a Switch node, ready for whatever conditional logic will be added later." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a manual trigger.

The request is quite specific: a manual trigger connected to a `DebugHelper` node that generates random data.\n\nMy first thought is always to start with what initiates the workflow. The prompt clearly states \"starting with a manual trigger.\" This tells me I need a node that can be run by a user directly, typically by clicking a button in the n8n interface.\n\nLooking at the n8n node types, the `manualTrigger` node is the perfect fit for this. It's found under the `n8n-nodes-base` package and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node's sole purpose is to start a workflow execution when someone clicks \"Execute workflow\" or manually triggers it. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters itself, as its function is simply to be the starting gate for the workflow. So, I'd place this `When clicking \"Execute workflow\"` node down first.\n\nNext, the prompt says to \"Connect this trigger to a DebugHelper node.\" This immediately tells me what the subsequent node should be. The `DebugHelper` node is extremely versatile for testing and development, and it's also part of the `n8n-nodes-base` package, with `typeVersion: 1`. I know I'll need to draw a connection from the `manualTrigger`'s output to the `DebugHelper`'s input. In n8n, this is typically a \"main\" output to \"main\" input connection, meaning the flow of execution and any initial data (though the manual trigger doesn't pass data, just the signal to start) will move from the trigger to the `DebugHelper`.\n\nNow, the crucial part: configuring the `DebugHelper` node. The prompt has very specific instructions for it: \"configured to generate 100 items of random data with a seed of 0.\"\n\nWhen I open the `DebugHelper` node's settings, I'd look for an option to generate data. This node has a \"Category\" setting. By default, it might be set to \"Do Nothing\" or something similar. To meet the requirement, I'd select `randomData` as its `category`. This tells the `DebugHelper` that its job in this instance is to create mock data.\n\nOnce `randomData` is selected, new options appear specifically for data generation. The prompt specifies \"100 items.\" I'd look for a field like `randomDataCount` and enter `100` there. This directly controls how many distinct data items the node will produce.\n\nFinally, the prompt adds \"with a seed of 0.\" This is a critical detail for reproducibility. In data generation, a \"seed\" ensures that if you run the workflow multiple times, the \"random\" data generated will always be the same sequence. This is invaluable for consistent testing. I'd locate the `randomDataSeed` parameter and input `0` there. This guarantees that whenever this workflow runs, the 100 items of random data produced by the `DebugHelper` node will be identical every time, given the same seed.\n\nAnd that's it. The `manualTrigger` starts the workflow, and the `DebugHelper` node, configured precisely as requested, then generates the specified random data items, ready for any subsequent nodes to consume, though in this case, it's the final step defined." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers whenever new time entries are created in Toggl.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get new time entries from Toggl\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"pollTimes\": {\"item\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Toggl\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.togglTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 250]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow from the ground up, as if I'm sitting down to design it based on the user's request and the provided JSON.\n\nThe user's goal is clear: \"Generate an n8n workflow that triggers whenever new time entries are created in Toggl.\" This immediately tells me that the very first node in this workflow *must* be a trigger node. It needs to be something that listens to Toggl or checks Toggl regularly for new data.\n\nSo, my first thought is: \"How do I get n8n to know about new time entries in Toggl?\"\n\n1. **Choosing the Trigger Node**:\n * Since the target application is Toggl, I'll naturally look for a \"Toggl\" node. And because it needs to *trigger* the workflow, it will specifically be a \"Toggl Trigger\" node. This is the most direct and efficient way to start a workflow based on events from a specific service.\n * Looking at the provided JSON, it confirms my suspicion: the `nodes` array contains one item, and its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.togglTrigger`. Perfect. This is exactly what I need to pull in new time entries.\n\n2. **Placing and Naming the Node**:\n * I'll drag this `Toggl Trigger` node onto the n8n canvas. Its `name` in the JSON is simply \"Toggl\", which is concise and clear for a trigger node originating from that service.\n * The `position` `[650, 250]` is just where it would visually appear on the canvas \u2013 typically a good starting point for a simple workflow.\n\n3. **Understanding Node Type and Version**:\n * The `type` is explicitly stated as `n8n-nodes-base.togglTrigger`. This means it's one of n8n's core, built-in nodes, specifically designed for integrating with Toggl as a trigger. It's exactly the right tool for the job.\n * The `typeVersion` is `1`. This tells me I'm using the initial version of this node's implementation. It's important to note because sometimes later versions might introduce new features or changes in how parameters work. For this workflow, version 1 is what's specified, and it's robust enough for polling new entries.\n\n4. **Configuring the Node - How it Detects New Entries**:\n * Now, I need to make sure this `Toggl Trigger` node actually does what's asked: detect *new time entries*.\n * Looking at the `parameters` in the JSON, I see `{\"pollTimes\": {\"item\": [{}]}}`. This `pollTimes` parameter is key. It indicates that this node operates by *polling*. Instead of Toggl sending real-time webhooks (which might not be available for all events or are more complex to set up), this node will periodically connect to Toggl's API and ask, \"Are there any new time entries since the last time I checked?\"\n * The `item: [{}]` typically implies that it's using a default polling interval, or it's a placeholder for more specific configurations if I wanted to, say, poll every 5 minutes or every hour. For detecting \"new\" entries, polling is a very common and effective method. Each time it polls and finds new entries, it will trigger the workflow for those specific new entries.\n\n5. **Configuring the Node - Connecting to Toggl**:\n * Next, I see `credentials: {\"togglApi\": \"\"}`. This is a critical step for any node that needs to interact with an external service.\n * Here, I would set up the connection to the user's specific Toggl account. I can't put any actual secret values in the JSON or here, but in n8n's UI, I would click on the \"Toggl API\" field and either select an existing credential or create a new one. This new credential would require the user's Toggl API token (which can usually be found in their Toggl profile settings). Without this, the node wouldn't have permission to query Toggl for time entries. It's the handshake that allows n8n to talk to Toggl.\n\n6. **Finalizing the Workflow Setup**:\n * The `active: false` setting in the overall workflow JSON means that once I've designed and saved this, it won't immediately start running. This is good practice. It allows me to finish configuring, test it once or twice with dummy data if needed, and then manually activate it when I'm ready for it to go live and start listening for real new time entries.\n * `settings: {}` and `connections: {}` being empty are expected for such a straightforward, single-node workflow. There are no global workflow settings to apply yet, and since it's just one node, there are no connections to other nodes.\n\nAt this point, the workflow effectively consists of a single `Toggl Trigger` node that, once activated and given the correct credentials, will periodically check Toggl for newly created time entries and trigger the workflow for each one it finds. This perfectly addresses the user's prompt.

Plus, it needs a few specific tags for organization.\n\nSo, thinking about the very first step, how does this workflow get *started*? The prompt explicitly says it \"triggers via a webhook.\" That immediately tells me our initial node has to be a Webhook node.\n\nI'd start by dragging out a **Webhook** node onto the canvas. Looking at the JSON, this is an `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` of `typeVersion: 2`. This is the standard choice for receiving external HTTP requests.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Webhook node? The prompt specifies a precise path: `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/BasicWorkflowCreation`. So, in the node's parameters, I'd set the `path` field to that exact string. This ensures the workflow only triggers when a request hits that specific endpoint. Another crucial setting for this particular workflow is the \"Response Mode.\" Since the prompt states we need to \"respond to the webhook with that content,\" we're not going to send an immediate default response. Instead, we'll let a later node handle the response. So, I'd set the `responseMode` parameter to `responseNode`. This tells the webhook to wait for a dedicated `Respond to Webhook` node to provide the final output.\n\nOkay, so the workflow can now receive a trigger. What's next? The prompt says it \"should fetch content from the Google Docs URL.\" This points directly to the need for a Google Docs integration.\n\nSo, the next logical step would be to add a **Google Docs** node. I'd connect the `Webhook` node's output to the input of this new `Google Docs` node. In the JSON, this node is an `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion: 2`. This node is perfect for interacting with Google Docs, whether it's reading, writing, or creating documents.\n\nHow do we configure it? The primary action here is to \"fetch content,\" which means we'll need the \"Get\" operation. So, I'd set the `operation` parameter to `get`. Then, the prompt gives us the exact URL of the document: `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1GRO2bl0RSDbVOhMjCvCy-JDgCGHB_aLPk5INVh5DNL8\/view`. This URL would be input into the `documentURL` field. Of course, to access Google Docs, this node will also require credentials, so a Google Docs OAuth2 account would need to be linked or configured there, allowing n8n to authenticate with Google on behalf of the user. Once this node executes, I'd expect it to output the content of the document, likely in a field such as `content` or `text`.\n\nFinally, we've got the content from the Google Doc. What's the last requirement? \"and respond to the webhook with that content.\" This is where the `Respond to Webhook` node comes in.\n\nI'd add a **Respond to Webhook** node, which is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion: 1.1`, and connect it directly from the `Google Docs` node's output. This ensures that it only tries to respond *after* the content has been successfully retrieved.\n\nFor its configuration, we need to send back the text content. So, I'd set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`. Then, for the actual `responseBody`, we need to dynamically pull the content that the `Google Docs` node produced. Based on common outputs from document retrieval nodes, it's very likely that the content will be in a field called `content`. So, I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` for the `responseBody`. This tells the node to grab the `content` property from the data passed into it by the `Google Docs` node and send it as the response body. This completes the core logic of retrieving and returning the document content.\n\nAnd that's pretty much the whole flow! We have the trigger, the data fetching, and the response, all connected sequentially. One final detail, which isn't part of the node structure but important for the workflow's organization, is adding the specified tags: 'AI Onboarding', 'Day1', 'Files', and 'Onboarding'. These would be configured in the workflow's overall settings, helping with discoverability and categorization within n8n." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow featuring two Webhook nodes (\"Webhook\" and \"Webhook1\"), both connected to trigger a \"Hacker News\" node configured to fetch `articleId` \"123\".

When I look at a workflow request, the first thing I consider is what initiates the process. The prompt explicitly mentions \"two Webhook nodes... both connected to trigger\" something. So, naturally, I'd begin by setting up those trigger points.\n\nFirst, I'll drag and drop a Webhook node onto the canvas. This node, `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 2`, is perfect for this as it allows an external service or a manual call to kick off the workflow. I'll name this one \"Webhook\", as specified in the prompt. For its configuration, I'd typically see a `path` parameter. This path defines the unique URL endpoint for this specific webhook. The JSON shows a `path` parameter with a value like `4a3398e4-1388-4e10-9d21-add90b804955`. This ensures it has a distinct entry point.\n\nNext, the prompt requires a second Webhook node. So, I'll add another `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, also `typeVersion: 2`, right beside the first one. I'll name this one \"Webhook1\". Similar to the first, it needs its own unique `path` to operate independently. The JSON confirms a different path for it, `30ff316d-405f-4288-a0ac-e713546c9d4e`, which is exactly what we need for two distinct triggers.\n\nWith the triggers in place, I need to think about what happens *after* they are activated. The prompt states both Webhook nodes should \"trigger a 'Hacker News' node configured to fetch `articleId` '123'\". This tells me the immediate next step is the Hacker News integration.\n\nSo, I'll search for and add a \"Hacker News\" node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.hackerNews` and the JSON indicates `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed to interact with the Hacker News API, which is exactly what we need. Now, for its configuration: the prompt is very clear about fetching `articleId` \"123\". So, I'd go into the node's parameters and locate the `articleId` field. I'd then input \"123\" there. The JSON confirms this parameter `{\"articleId\": \"123\", \"additionalFields\": {}}`. This setup ensures that whenever this node runs, it will attempt to retrieve the details for that specific article from Hacker News.\n\nNow for the connections. Both Webhook nodes need to trigger the Hacker News node. So, I'll draw a connection from the \"main\" output of the \"Webhook\" node to the \"main\" input of the \"Hacker News\" node. Then, I'll do the same for \"Webhook1,\" connecting its \"main\" output to the \"main\" input of the \"Hacker News\" node as well. This creates the parallel trigger mechanism where either webhook can initiate the Hacker News lookup.\n\nFinally, the prompt says: \"The 'Hacker News' node should then connect to an 'Edit Fields' node.\" This implies some post-processing or data manipulation after fetching the Hacker News article.\n\nI'll add a \"Set\" node, which I'll rename to \"Edit Fields\" as per the prompt. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.3`. The \"Set\" node is incredibly versatile for adding, renaming, or modifying fields within the incoming data. While the JSON shows its parameters as `{\"options\": {}}`, meaning no specific field manipulations are configured *yet*, its purpose here is to receive the data from Hacker News for potential further processing. It's a common practice to include a Set node at the end of a data retrieval flow for transformations or simply to make the output clearer, even if no changes are made initially.\n\nThe final connection is from the \"Hacker News\" node to the \"Edit Fields\" node. So, I'll connect the \"main\" output of \"Hacker News\" to the \"main\" input of \"Edit Fields.\" This ensures that once the article data is fetched from Hacker News, it's passed along to the \"Edit Fields\" node for whatever subsequent data handling might be required. And that completes the workflow as described." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow starting with a Manual Trigger.

The prompt clearly states it should begin with a \"Manual Trigger.\" This is the most straightforward way to manually initiate a workflow, which is perfect for testing or one-off executions. So, I'll drag and drop a Manual Trigger node onto my canvas. Looking at the provided JSON, this node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion` 1. It's named \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is its default name, so no need to change that. Its primary purpose is just to kick off the workflow, so no specific parameters need to be configured for it beyond its default state.\n\nNext, the prompt indicates that the Manual Trigger should connect to a *disabled* Code node named 'Error'. So, my next action is to add a Code node. I'll search for \"Code\" in the node panel and drag it onto the canvas. I'll then draw a connection from the output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the input of this new Code node.\n\nNow, for configuring this new Code node:\n* Its name needs to be 'Error'. I'll update the node's name field.\n* The prompt specifies it must be *disabled*. This is a critical detail. I'll find the 'Enabled' toggle (or similar setting) within the node's configuration panel and switch it off. This means that even if data flows into this node, its JavaScript code won't actually execute, and it will essentially act as a passthrough.\n* The JSON tells me this is `n8n-nodes-base.code` and `typeVersion` 1. That's the standard Code node.\n* Most importantly, the prompt says it should \"intentionally include the `error` keyword in its JavaScript.\" I'll open the 'Code' field (which contains the `jsCode` parameter). The JSON provides the exact code for this node:\n ```javascript\n \/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n \/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\n for (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n error\n }\n\n return $input.all();\n ```\n I'll paste this into the code editor. The `error` keyword here, outside of a `try...catch` block or a specific error object, is indeed designed to cause a runtime error if this node were enabled and executed. But since it's disabled, it's just there as per the requirement without affecting the workflow's execution path.\n\nFinally, the prompt says the 'Error' node \"then connects to another Code node named 'Code' that adds `myNewField = 1` to each input item.\" So, my third node will also be a Code node. I'll add another Code node to the canvas.\n* I'll connect the output of the (disabled) 'Error' node to the input of this new Code node. This connection ensures the data (which originated from the Manual Trigger and passed through the disabled 'Error' node) flows into this final node.\n* Its name needs to be 'Code'. I'll update its name field.\n* Again, this is a `n8n-nodes-base.code` node of `typeVersion` 1.\n* Its JavaScript logic is to add `myNewField = 1` to each input item. The JSON confirms the code for this node:\n ```javascript\n \/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n \/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\n for (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n }\n\n return $input.all();\n ```\n I'll place this code into the 'Code' field. This code will successfully iterate through any items it receives and attach the `myNewField` property with a value of `1` to each item's JSON data.\n\nOne last thing, the prompt mentions, \"Include the tags 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'.\" This isn't a node-specific setting but a workflow-level property. I'd go into the workflow settings (usually accessible from the top or side panel) and add these two tags, 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2', to the workflow. These tags help with organization and searching for workflows.\n\nAnd with that, the workflow is complete as specified.

The prompt is clear: we need a workflow named 'Node versions' to demonstrate different `typeVersion`s for 'Edit Fields' (Set) nodes, plus a 'Manual Trigger' and a 'Function' node, all laid out horizontally.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick it off. The prompt specifically asks for a 'Manual Trigger'. So, I'll definitely start there.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Node `typeVersion`:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This is the most straightforward way to manually initiate a workflow, perfect for testing and demonstrating specific nodes without needing an external event. It allows me to just click \"Test workflow\" to see everything in action. I'll place it towards the left side of my canvas, let's say at position `[460, 460]`, as the JSON suggests, setting the stage for a horizontal layout.\n\nNow, the core of this request is to showcase different `typeVersion`s of the 'Edit Fields' (Set) node. The prompt specifies three: one with `typeVersion` 2, one with `typeVersion` 3.4, and one with no `typeVersion` specified (which typically defaults to the latest stable version if not explicitly set, or an older version if imported into an older n8n instance). It's crucial to get these exact versions right for the demonstration.\n\nI'll start by placing the 'Edit Fields' node that's specified to have the `typeVersion` 3.4, as it's the next one over from the trigger in the provided JSON's coordinates.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Node `typeVersion`:** `3.4`\n* **Reasoning:** The 'Set' node is perfect for this. Its primary purpose is to add, rename, or remove fields from incoming items, which makes it a very common and versatile node to demonstrate how different `typeVersion`s might change its internal behavior or options over time. Specifying `3.4` for this node directly addresses a key part of the prompt's requirement. I'll position this to the right of the trigger, at `[640, 460]`, keeping that horizontal arrangement.\n\nNext up, I need another 'Edit Fields' (Set) node, this time specifically for `typeVersion` 2. This is an older version, so it's interesting to include for demonstration purposes, showing how node interfaces or functionalities might evolve.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Node `typeVersion`:** `2`\n* **Reasoning:** Again, the 'Set' node is the right tool. By explicitly setting its `typeVersion` to `2`, I'm fulfilling another specific requirement of the prompt. This highlights n8n's backward compatibility and how node definitions can be versioned. I'll place it further along horizontally, at `[800, 460]`.\n\nThe prompt also asked for a 'Function' node. This is a powerful node for custom JavaScript logic. While it doesn't directly relate to the `typeVersion` demonstration of 'Set' nodes, it's a standard node frequently used in workflows, and its inclusion was requested. So, I'll drop that in next, following the horizontal flow shown in the JSON.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.function`\n* **Node `typeVersion`:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** The 'Function' node allows for executing custom JavaScript code, which can be incredibly flexible for manipulating data, making conditional decisions, or integrating with other services not directly supported by existing nodes. Its presence here adds another common workflow component to the demonstration. I'll put it at `[960, 460]`, continuing the horizontal line.\n\nFinally, I need the last 'Edit Fields' (Set) node. This one is special because the prompt says it should have *no* `typeVersion` specified. This is a good way to see what n8n defaults to or how it behaves when a version isn't explicitly pinned.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Node `typeVersion`:** (None specified)\n* **Reasoning:** By omitting the `typeVersion` property, this 'Set' node will typically run using the latest `typeVersion` available in the n8n instance it's imported into, or potentially revert to a default if loaded in an older n8n version. It's a key part of the demonstration, showing the contrast to explicitly versioned nodes. I'll place it at the far end of our horizontal layout, at `[1120, 460]`.\n\nLooking at the JSON, it doesn't specify any connections between these nodes. For this particular demonstration, where the goal is to show the *existence* and `typeVersion` of specific nodes arranged horizontally, having them unconnected is acceptable. If this were a functional workflow, I would definitely connect the 'Manual Trigger' to the first 'Edit Fields' node and then branch out or sequence them as needed, but for a simple display of node types and versions, their independent placement is fine as per the provided JSON's lack of `connections` data." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a manual trigger.

Looking at the user's request, they specifically asked for a \"manual trigger\". This is straightforward in n8n. I'd start by adding the **Manual Trigger** node.\n\nSo, I'd place a `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node on the canvas. Its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to allow a workflow to be executed on demand, usually by clicking a button in the n8n UI. It doesn't require any special configuration beyond its basic setup, as its parameters object is empty. It just sits there, waiting for that manual push to send a single item of data down its output, signaling the start of the workflow.\n\nNow that I have the starting point, the user wants this to trigger a \"Gmail node set to 'get' data\". So, the next logical step is to connect the Manual Trigger to a Gmail node.\n\nI'll draw a connection from the `main` output of my `When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019` node (which is the Manual Trigger) to the input of a **Gmail** node. This means the data from the manual trigger \u2013 a single, empty item \u2013 will flow into the Gmail node, prompting it to execute.\n\nFor this first Gmail node, the JSON tells me it's a `n8n-nodes-base.gmail` node with `typeVersion: 2.1`. Its `name` property is set to \"Gmail\". This is exactly what I need for interacting with Gmail. The key parameter here, as per the request, is `operation: \"get\"`. This explicitly tells the Gmail node to retrieve emails, rather than sending them, deleting them, or performing other actions. When configuring this node, I'd typically need to select my Gmail account credentials (which are stored securely outside the workflow definition) and then specify what emails I want to retrieve \u2013 perhaps from a specific folder, or matching certain criteria, but the JSON only specifies the 'get' operation, leaving the specifics to be configured by the user.

While its `name` property is empty in the JSON, it's referenced as `Gmail1` in the connections, so I'll refer to it as such. Just like the first, its `parameters` object explicitly sets `operation: \"get\"`. This means it too will perform a retrieval action on Gmail. It\u2019s interesting to have two sequential 'get' operations. A common use case for this might be if you want to get emails from one label or inbox, process some information from them, and then use that information to query a *different* set of emails or a *different* Gmail account in the second step. For instance, maybe the first 'get' retrieves a list of sender emails, and the second 'get' then searches for all emails *from* those senders. Or, it could simply be querying a different mailbox or using a completely different set of filters. Again, it would require configuring the specific details of the 'get' operation, like which account to use and what search criteria to apply, but the core action remains 'get'.\n\nAnd with that, the workflow structure is complete, matching the prompt: a manual trigger, followed by two sequential Gmail 'get' operations." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a manual trigger.

It's perfect for testing, ad-hoc execution, or when a workflow doesn't need to respond to an external event but rather be run on demand. I'll name it \"On clicking 'execute'\" as per the JSON, which is a good descriptive name for a manual trigger.\n * **Configuration:** A manual trigger typically doesn't require any specific parameters beyond its existence, and indeed, the JSON confirms `parameters: {}`. It just needs to be there to kick things off. I'll place it at the beginning of my workflow canvas.\n\nNow that the workflow can be started, the next step is to introduce some data into it. The prompt specifically mentions \"use a Set node to add an item with the key 'key' and value 'somevalue'.\" This points me directly to the `Set` node.\n\n2. **Node 2: Set**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n * **Type Version:** 1\n * **Reasoning:** The `Set` node is ideal for creating new data items or modifying existing ones within the workflow's data stream. Since I need to introduce a new key-value pair, this is precisely the node for the job.\n * **Connection:** This `Set` node needs to execute *after* the `manualTrigger`. So, I'll draw a connection from the `manualTrigger`'s main output to the `Set` node's main input. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, the data setting operation immediately follows.\n * **Configuration:** For the `Set` node, I need to define the `key` and `value`. The JSON shows `parameters.values.string` with an array containing an object: `{\"name\": \"key\", \"value\": \"somevalue\"}`. This tells me I should configure the node to add a new string field named 'key' and set its value to 'somevalue'. It's a very direct way to inject static data.\n\nFinally, the prompt asks for a \"Rename Keys node to change 'key' to 'newkey'.\" So, after the data is set, the next logical step is to modify that key.\n\n3. **Node 3: Rename Keys**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.renameKeys`\n * **Type Version:** 1\n * **Reasoning:** The `Rename Keys` node is specifically designed for transforming the names of keys in the incoming data. Since the previous `Set` node introduced a key called 'key', and I need to change that to 'newkey', this node is the perfect fit.\n * **Connection:** This `Rename Keys` node must receive the data that the `Set` node just created. Therefore, I'll connect the main output of the `Set` node to the main input of this `Rename Keys` node. This ensures the correct data flow: trigger -> add data -> rename part of that data.\n * **Configuration:** The JSON specifies `parameters.keys.key` which is an array containing `{\"newKey\": \"newkey\", \"currentKey\": \"key\"}`. This means I need to tell the `Rename Keys` node to look for a key currently named 'key' and, when found, rename it to 'newkey'. This configuration is precise and will achieve the desired key transformation.\n\nThis sequential setup \u2013 trigger, add data, modify data \u2013 covers all the requirements outlined in the prompt and aligns perfectly with the provided JSON structure. The data will flow from one node to the next, undergoing the specified transformations at each stage." } { "prompt": "Design an N8n workflow that manually triggers with multiple input items.

If it matches, it goes one way (a \"True\" path), and if not, it goes another (a \"False\" path).\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states \"manually triggers with multiple input items.\" So, the most appropriate node for this is the `Manual Trigger` node. I'd add this as the very first node. It's a `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. The beauty of this node is that during testing, I can directly inject the sample data using the `pinData` property, which is perfect for simulating \"multiple input items.\" Looking at the `pinData` in the JSON, I see a list of JSON objects, each representing a user profile, exactly what's needed. This will allow the workflow to process each user profile individually down the line.\n\nNext, after the trigger, I see an `Edit Fields` node. This is a `n8n-nodes-base.set` node with `typeVersion: 3.2`. Its parameters are just `{ options: {} }`, meaning it's not actually modifying any data. In this specific configuration, it acts as a passthrough. While not strictly necessary for the core logic requested by the prompt (checking a field and branching), it's often a good practice to include a `Set` node early in the workflow, especially if you anticipate needing to clean up, rename, or add fields to the incoming data later. For now, it just takes the input from the `Manual Trigger` and passes it along. So, I'd connect the `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` to the `main` input of this `Edit Fields` node.\n\nNow, the core logic: \"For each item, it should check if the `profile.name` field contains the string 'an', branching to a 'True' node for matches and a 'False' node for non-matches.\" This immediately tells me I need a conditional node, and the `IF` node is precisely designed for this. I'll add an `IF` node, which is `n8n-nodes-base.if` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is ideal because it has two distinct outputs: one for when the condition is true and another for when it's false, perfectly matching the branching requirement.\n\nTo configure the `IF` node, I need to define the condition. The prompt says \"check if the `profile.name` field contains the string 'an'\".\nSo, within the `IF` node's parameters, under `conditions`, I'll specify a `string` comparison.\nThe `value1` needs to be the `profile.name` field from the incoming data. I'd use an expression for this: `={{ $json.profile.name }}`. This tells n8n to look at the `profile` object within the current item's JSON, and then access the `name` property.\nThe `operation` should be `contains`, as requested.\nAnd `value2` will be the string `'an'`.\nThis setup will evaluate each incoming item. If the `profile.name` contains \"an\" (case-sensitive by default for `contains` in n8n, which is fine here as no case-insensitivity was requested), it will output to the \"True\" branch. Otherwise, it goes to the \"False\" branch.\n\nFinally, for the branching outcomes, the prompt asks for a \"True\" node and a \"False\" node. Simple `Set` nodes are perfect for marking these paths. I'd add two more `Set` nodes, both `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.2`. One I'll name \"True\" and the other \"False\". Like the earlier \"Edit Fields\" node, these also have empty parameters `{ options: {} }`, meaning they're not transforming data but merely serving as endpoints or starting points for further actions along that specific branch.\n\nTo connect them:\nThe first output of the `IF` node (which represents the 'true' condition) will connect to the `main` input of the \"True\" `Set` node.\nThe second output of the `IF` node (representing the 'false' condition) will connect to the `main` input of the \"False\" `Set` node.\n\nThis completes the workflow: manual trigger, an optional pass-through `Set` node, the crucial `IF` node for conditional logic, and two `Set` nodes to signify the true and false paths. It handles multiple items automatically because n8n processes each item through the workflow individually by default." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers on Telegram messages with attachments, sending the received files simultaneously to an AWS S3 bucket for upload and AWS Textract for processing. The output from Textract should then be appended to an Airtable table.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"AWS Textract\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.awsTextract\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [700, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"updates\": [\"*\"], \"additionalFields\": {\"download\": true, \"imageSize\": \"medium\"}}, \"name\": \"Telegram Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegramTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [520, 220]}, {\"parameters\": {\"table\": \"receipts\", \"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"append\", \"application\": \"qwertz\", \"addAllFields\": false}, \"name\": \"Airtable\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.airtable\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [880, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"={{$binary.data.fileName}}\", \"operation\": \"upload\", \"bucketName\": \"textract-demodata\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"AWS S3\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.awsS3\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [700, 100]}], \"connections\": {\"AWS Textract\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Airtable\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Telegram Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AWS S3\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}, {\"node\": \"AWS Textract\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this workflow. The first thing I need is a way to kick this whole process off whenever a new Telegram message comes in, especially one with attachments, since the prompt specifies that.\n\nLooking at the prompt, it clearly states \"triggers on Telegram messages with attachments.\" So, my very first node has to be a trigger that can listen for those. The workflow JSON conveniently provides a `Telegram Trigger` node. This is perfect.\n\nI'd place the **Telegram Trigger** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.telegramTrigger`, typeVersion: 1) as the absolute beginning of my workflow. Its primary purpose is to act as a webhook, listening for incoming updates from Telegram. For its configuration, I'd need to ensure it's set up to receive all necessary updates, and importantly, the prompt mentions processing attachments. This means I need to configure the `additionalFields` to `download: true`. This ensures that when a message with a file is received, the actual binary data of that file is pulled into the workflow, making it available for subsequent nodes like S3 or Textract. The `imageSize: \"medium\"` parameter might be useful if Telegram provides different size variations, ensuring I get a usable resolution for processing. Naturally, this node would require a Telegram API credential configured, but I won't go into the specifics of that here.\n\nNow, once a message with an attachment is received, the prompt specifies two things happen *simultaneously*: sending the received files to AWS S3 for upload *and* to AWS Textract for processing. This means from my Telegram trigger, I'll need to create two separate branches. n8n's `main` connection type allows me to connect a single output from one node to multiple input nodes, effectively creating parallel execution paths.\n\nSo, from the **Telegram Trigger**, I'll draw two connections.\n\nLet's consider the first parallel path: uploading the file to AWS S3. For this, I'll need an AWS S3 node.\nI'll add an **AWS S3** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.awsS3`, typeVersion: 1) to the workflow. This node is designed specifically for interacting with AWS S3 buckets. Its main operation will be `upload`, as requested. I'd then need to specify the `bucketName`, which in this case is `textract-demodata` as per the JSON. For the `fileName`, since the file is coming from the Telegram Trigger, I want to use the original filename if available. The expression `={{$binary.data.fileName}}` is perfect for this, as it dynamically pulls the filename from the binary data received from the previous node (the Telegram Trigger). This ensures that the uploaded file retains its original name in the S3 bucket. This node would, of course, need AWS credentials configured for authentication.\n\nNow for the second parallel path, the one that involves processing the file with AWS Textract. This path also originates from the **Telegram Trigger** node, running concurrently with the S3 upload.\n\nI'll add an **AWS Textract** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.awsTextract`, typeVersion: 1). This node is specifically built for interacting with the AWS Textract service, which is used for extracting text and data from documents. The prompt explicitly asks for Textract processing, so this is the correct node. Its purpose here is to take the attachment received from Telegram and send it to Textract for analysis. The Textract node will automatically handle the input binary data passed to it from the Telegram trigger. Similar to the S3 node, this node would also require AWS credentials to authenticate with the Textract service. The Textract node, once configured, will process the document and output the extracted text and data.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that \"The output from Textract should then be appended to an Airtable table.\" This tells me the Textract node needs to be connected to an Airtable node, and the operation should be an append action.\n\nSo, from the **AWS Textract** node, I'll create a connection to an **Airtable** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.airtable`, typeVersion: 1). This node is ideal for interacting with Airtable bases and tables. The operation required is `append`, meaning we'll be adding new records to the table, rather than updating existing ones or reading data. I'd need to specify the `application` (which is like the Base ID in Airtable, here it's `qwertz`) and the `table` name (`receipts`). The `addAllFields: false` parameter means I'll explicitly map the fields from Textract's output to Airtable's columns, rather than trying to automatically add all available fields, which gives more control over the data structure. The Textract output will contain the extracted text and data, which I would then map to the appropriate columns in the Airtable table. This node, of course, relies on an Airtable API credential to connect to my Airtable account.\n\nAnd that completes the flow, from receiving a message and file on Telegram, sending the file simultaneously to S3 and Textract, and then taking Textract's output and adding it as a new record to Airtable." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that is triggered by a webhook, waits for 2 seconds, and then processes the data with a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Webhook wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [940, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is quite clear: we need something that starts with a webhook, pauses for a couple of seconds, and then does some data processing with a Set node.\n\nFirst things first, for any workflow, you need a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly says \"triggered by a webhook.\" So, the very first node that comes to mind, the one we absolutely *must* start with, is a **Webhook** node. This is a fundamental trigger in n8n for external systems to initiate a workflow. Looking at the JSON, indeed, we have a node named \"Webhook\" with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect for listening for incoming HTTP requests. When setting this up, I'd typically give it a unique path, which I see in the JSON it has under `parameters.path`. This path is what an external system would hit to trigger the workflow. No other specific configurations seem immediately necessary for a basic trigger, just that path so it knows where to listen.\n\nOnce the webhook triggers, the data from the incoming request will flow into the next node. The prompt then says \"waits for 2 seconds.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can introduce a delay. The most straightforward node for this purpose is the **Wait** node. It's designed exactly for this: to pause the workflow's execution for a specified duration. So, I'd drag out a Wait node and connect it directly from the Webhook node's \"main\" output. The JSON confirms this decision, showing a \"Wait\" node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\"` and `typeVersion: 1`, and it's connected from the \"Webhook\" node. Now, how do we configure it for \"2 seconds\"? Looking at the JSON, I see under its `parameters` that `amount` is set to `2` and `unit` is set to `\"seconds\"`. This is exactly how I'd configure it in the UI \u2013 tell it to wait for an amount of 2, and specify that unit as seconds. This ensures that any data coming from the webhook will be held at this point for precisely two seconds before moving on. The `typeVersion: 1` indicates it's a standard, stable version of this node, which is good. I wouldn't expect any unexpected behavior there.\n\nAfter waiting for two seconds, the prompt states \"and then processes the data with a Set node.\" This is the final step in this particular workflow. So, the output of the Wait node needs to go into a **Set** node. The Set node is incredibly versatile; it's often used to manipulate, add, or remove data fields on the incoming items. It's a great \"processing\" node when you need to standardize data, add new information, or clean up existing fields before passing them to subsequent nodes or actions. The JSON confirms this, showing a \"Set\" node named \"Set\" with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'd connect the \"main\" output of the Wait node to the \"main\" input of the Set node. In terms of configuration, the JSON shows `parameters.options` as empty. This implies that for this specific workflow, the Set node is present, fulfilling the prompt's requirement to \"process the data,\" but it's not actually *doing* any specific data transformation or addition in this iteration. Perhaps it's a placeholder for future development, or the \"processing\" might involve simply having the data pass through it, ready for more complex operations that would be added later. If I were building this from scratch and needed it to *do* something, I'd be adding fields or expressions in those options. But for now, an empty Set node fulfills the \"processes the data with a Set node\" requirement. The flow is now complete: Webhook -> Wait -> Set." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow where a webhook triggers a Google Sheets node.

The request is pretty clear: we need a way for an external system to kick off a process, and that process needs to write some information into a Google Sheet.\n\nSo, thinking about the starting point, the prompt says \"a webhook triggers.\" This immediately tells me what my first node absolutely has to be. I'll need a **Webhook** node. This is the entry point, the listener that waits for an incoming HTTP request. It's perfectly suited for this kind of external trigger. Looking at the JSON, I see it's of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and it's `typeVersion: 1`. That's standard and tells me it's using a common, stable version of the webhook node.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Webhook node? The prompt specifies \"The webhook should be on path 'webhook'\". So, I'll set its `path` parameter to `\"webhook\"`. This means the full URL for this webhook will end with `\/webhook`, making it easy for external systems to send data to it. As for the other parameters like `options`, I see it's an empty object in the JSON, which means no special options like authentication or specific HTTP methods are needed for this basic setup. The `responseData` is set to `allEntries` and `responseMode` to `lastNode`. This configuration is a good default for many workflows; `allEntries` means that all data processed by the workflow will be returned, and `lastNode` means the response from the very last node executed will be used as the webhook's response. This is useful if, for example, the Google Sheet operation returns some confirmation that we want to send back to the system that called the webhook.\n\nOkay, so we have our trigger. What's next? The prompt says the webhook should trigger \"a Google Sheets node.\" This is straightforward. After the webhook receives data, we want to send it to Google Sheets. So, the next logical step is to add a **Google Sheets** node. Looking at the JSON, it's `n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node type is exactly what we need for interacting with Google Sheets, whether it's reading, writing, or appending data.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Google Sheets node? The prompt gives us two crucial pieces of information. First, it should target \"the range 'Problems!A:D'\". This goes directly into the `range` parameter, so I'll set that to `\"Problems!A:D\"`. This is important because it defines exactly which part of the sheet the node will interact with. Second, it specifies \"in the spreadsheet with ID '17fzSFl1BZ1njldTfp5lvh8HtS0-pNXH66b7qGZIiGRU'\". This long string is the unique identifier for the Google Sheet, so I'll put that into the `sheetId` parameter. This ensures we're targeting the correct document. There's also an `options` parameter, which is empty, indicating no special operations like clearing or adding headers are required for this particular setup.\n\nOne crucial part of any Google Sheets node, or indeed any node interacting with an external service, is authentication. The JSON has a `credentials` object with `googleApi: \"\"`. This means that to actually run this workflow, a user would need to set up and select valid Google API credentials. These credentials are what allow n8n to securely connect to their Google account and access the specified spreadsheet. I won't be putting any actual credentials in here, of course, but it's essential to know they'd be configured in that spot for the workflow to function.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The Webhook triggers the Google Sheets node, so it's a direct flow of data and execution. The connection in the JSON shows `Webhook` connected via its `main` output to the `Google Sheets` node's `main` input. This `main` connection is the standard way data flows from one node's successful execution to the next. Any data received by the Webhook, usually in its `body` or `query` parameters, would then be passed along to the Google Sheets node, which could then use that incoming data to populate the rows and columns within the specified range.\n\nAnd that's it! We have a Webhook listening for an incoming request, and upon receiving it, it passes information to a Google Sheets node that's configured to write to a specific range in a specific spreadsheet. It's a clean, two-node workflow that perfectly addresses the user's request." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow featuring a manual trigger connected to a DebugHelper node, configured to produce 100 random data items with a seed of '0'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [780, 500]}, {\"parameters\": {\"category\": \"randomData\", \"randomDataSeed\": \"0\", \"randomDataCount\": 100}, \"name\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1000, 500]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow built. The request is pretty clear: a manual trigger, connected to a DebugHelper node, and that DebugHelper needs to pump out 100 random data items, specifically with a seed of '0'.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly asks for a \"manual trigger\". So, the most logical first step is to add that. I'd look for a node that lets me kick off the workflow simply by clicking a button in the n8n UI.\n\nAh, yes, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. This is perfect for the job. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the standard current version, so no concerns there about compatibility or unexpected behavior. I'll place it down, perhaps somewhere central on the canvas, like at position `[780, 500]`, as it's the very beginning. This node doesn't really need any specific configuration parameters; its sole purpose is to start the execution when manually initiated. It's just a simple \"go\" button for the workflow.\n\nNow, what comes next? The prompt states it needs to be \"connected to a DebugHelper node\". So, that's my next target. I need a node that can generate data, and specifically, \"random data items\" with a specified count and seed. The `DebugHelper` node, type `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper` with `typeVersion: 1`, is exactly what I'm looking for here. It's incredibly versatile for testing and generating mock data. I'll drop that node down, probably to the right of the manual trigger, like at `[1000, 500]`, to keep a clear left-to-right flow.\n\nNow for the crucial part: configuring the `DebugHelper` node. The prompt specifies \"100 random data items with a seed of '0'\". The `DebugHelper` node has parameters specifically for this.\n* I'll need to set the `category` parameter. Looking at the options for `DebugHelper`, \"randomData\" is the one that fits perfectly here. This tells the node *what kind* of dummy data to generate.\n* Next, the number of items: \"100 random data items\". There's a `randomDataCount` parameter, and I'll set that to `100`. This directly translates the requirement into a node setting.\n* Finally, the \"seed of '0'\". This is important for reproducibility. If I run this workflow multiple times with the same seed, I'll get the exact same sequence of random data, which is great for debugging and consistent testing. The `randomDataSeed` parameter is exactly what I need, and I'll input `'0'` there.\n\nWith both nodes in place and configured, I just need to connect them. The `manualTrigger` simply starts the workflow and passes an empty item (or a single item indicating execution started) to the next node. The `DebugHelper` doesn't *need* incoming data to generate its own; it just needs to be triggered. So, a simple \"main\" connection from the output of the `manualTrigger` (\"When clicking \"Test workflow\"\") to the input of the `DebugHelper` will suffice. I'll drag a connection from the `main` output of the `manualTrigger` to the `main` input of the `DebugHelper`. This ensures that when I click \"Test workflow\", the `DebugHelper` node activates and generates its data.\n\nThat seems to cover all aspects of the request.

This usually means a webhook.\n\nLooking at the n8n node library, there are generic webhook nodes, but often, for popular services, n8n provides dedicated trigger nodes. These are usually much easier to configure because they handle the webhook setup on the service's side automatically.\n\nAnd indeed, when I look at the provided workflow JSON, the very first (and only) node specified is of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.customerIoTrigger\"`. This is perfect! This is exactly the kind of specialized trigger node I'd hope for. It means n8n knows how to talk to Customer.io, register the webhook, and interpret the incoming data. So, this will be our sole node for this workflow as per the given JSON.\n\nLet's go ahead and configure this \"Customer.io Trigger\" node.\n\nFirst, I'd give it a clear name. The JSON gives it the name \"Customer.io Trigger\", which is perfectly descriptive for its function. The node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.customerIoTrigger`, which clearly indicates it's a specific integration for Customer.io, and the `typeVersion: 1` tells me which version of this node's internal schema we're using \u2013 important for compatibility and future updates.\n\nNow, the most critical part of this trigger node is defining *what* event it should listen for. The user prompt explicitly states \"when a customer unsubscribes.\" The JSON confirms this intent by setting the `parameters` to `{\"events\": [\"customer.unsubscribed\"]}`. This is crucial. By specifying `customer.unsubscribed` in the `events` array, I'm telling this trigger node to *only* activate the workflow when Customer.io sends an event specifically for a customer unsubscription. If I wanted it to trigger on other events, like a customer being created or an email being opened, I would simply add those event names to this array. But for this specific requirement, `customer.unsubscribed` is precisely what we need.\n\nNext, we need to ensure n8n can actually communicate with Customer.io to register this webhook and authenticate any API calls it might need to make behind the scenes. This is handled by the `credentials`. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"customerIoApi\": \"customerIO\"}`. This indicates that there's an existing n8n credential setup named \"customerIO\" which contains the necessary authentication details for Customer.io, such as an API key or workspace ID. I would configure this credential in the n8n environment itself, securely storing the sensitive information there. The node then simply references it. This is a much better practice than embedding sensitive data directly in the workflow.\n\nThe `webhookId` property, `88092579-1b8d-4d44-98d5-f24b3579cbc2`, is an internal identifier that n8n uses to manage the specific webhook it creates within Customer.io for this workflow. When the workflow is activated, n8n will typically reach out to Customer.io's API, create a webhook endpoint pointing back to this n8n instance, and associate it with this ID.\n\nFinally, the `position` `[650, 260]` is just for the visual layout on the n8n canvas, placing the node clearly for readability.\n\nSince the JSON only contains this single trigger node and no connections, this workflow, as designed, is solely responsible for receiving the unsubscription event. In a real-world scenario, after this trigger fires, you'd typically add more nodes to *do something* with that information \u2013 perhaps send a Slack notification, update a CRM, or log the event to a database. However, based on the provided JSON, our current task is complete; we've set up the exact trigger mechanism.\n\nThe `active: false` setting in the overall workflow JSON tells me that once all these configurations are complete, I would need to manually activate the workflow in n8n for it to start listening for those unsubscription events from Customer.io. Until then, it's just a dormant blueprint." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that uses a manual trigger to send an email. The email should have \"n8n rocks!\" as the subject, \"This is a message to demonstrate the n8n Send Email workflow!\" as the body, be sent to \"user@example.com\" from \"user@from.email\", and require SMTP credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"This is a message to demonstrate the n8n Send Email workflow!\", \"options\": {\"allowUnauthorizedCerts\": false}, \"subject\": \"n8n rocks!\", \"toEmail\": \"user@example.com\", \"fromEmail\": \"user@from.email\"}, \"name\": \"Send Email\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.emailSend\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Send Email\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning out this n8n workflow. The user wants a workflow that kicks off manually, then sends an email with specific content, recipients, and sender, and importantly, it needs to use SMTP credentials.\n\nMy first thought always goes to the trigger. How does this workflow start? The prompt clearly states \"uses a manual trigger.\" Looking at the n8n node types, there's a perfect fit for this: the `manualTrigger` node.\n\nSo, I'll begin by dragging out a `manualTrigger` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the JSON shows it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is really straightforward; it's designed to initiate the workflow when someone clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n editor, or when a test run is performed. It doesn't typically require any special configuration parameters itself, as its sole purpose is to provide that initial \"kick.\" As I see in the JSON, its `parameters` object is empty, which confirms my initial thought. This is exactly what we need to get the workflow going on demand.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's the next step? The core action here is to \"send an email.\" For that, n8n has a dedicated node, which is the `emailSend` node.\n\nI'll add an `emailSend` node to the canvas. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.emailSend`, and similar to the trigger, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically built to handle all aspects of sending emails via an SMTP server. It's the most appropriate choice for this task.\n\nNext, I need to connect these two nodes. The `manualTrigger` will simply pass on its execution to the `emailSend` node. So, I'll draw a connection from the \"main\" output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (our `manualTrigger` node) to the \"main\" input of the \"Send Email\" (our `emailSend` node). This establishes the flow: trigger, then send email.\n\nNow, let's configure the `emailSend` node according to the prompt's requirements.\n\nFirst, the subject. The prompt specifies \"n8n rocks!\". So, I'll set the `subject` parameter in the `emailSend` node's configuration to that exact string.\n\nThen, the email body. The prompt states \"This is a message to demonstrate the n8n Send Email workflow!\". This content goes into the `text` parameter. This is where the main message of the email is placed.\n\nFor the recipient, the prompt says the email should be sent to \"user@example.com\". This will be configured in the `toEmail` parameter. I'd input the specific recipient address there.\n\nSimilarly, for the sender, it's \"user@from.email\". This will be set in the `fromEmail` parameter. This specifies who the email appears to be from.\n\nI also notice `options.allowUnauthorizedCerts` is set to `false`. This is generally a good security practice. It means the email node will only connect to SMTP servers that have valid and trusted SSL\/TLS certificates, preventing connections to potentially insecure or self-signed servers by default. It's wise to keep this `false` unless there's a specific, understood reason to allow untrusted certificates, which isn't the case here.\n\nFinally, and very importantly, the prompt states that it should \"require SMTP credentials.\" The `emailSend` node has a `credentials` field specifically for this. Here, I wouldn't embed the actual username or password directly. Instead, I'd link it to a pre-configured SMTP credential entry within n8n. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"smtp\": \"your@smtp_creds.here\"}`. This implies that there's an existing credential set named \"your@smtp_creds.here\" (or something similar in a real scenario) that contains all the necessary secure information\u2014like the SMTP server address, port, username, and password\u2014required to authenticate and send mail through an external mail server. This is essential for the `emailSend` node to actually connect and deliver the email. I'd simply select the appropriate SMTP credential from the dropdown or ensure it's linked correctly.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers all the requirements for this workflow. It's a simple, linear flow: manual trigger, then send email with specific content and credentials." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Webhook wait set\" that starts with a Webhook node, then waits for 2 seconds using a Wait node, and finally uses a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Webhook wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [940, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down how I'd approach building this n8n workflow from scratch, thinking through each decision.\n\nThe user wants a workflow named \"Webhook wait set\" that kicks off with a Webhook, then introduces a two-second delay, and finally uses a Set node. This sounds like a straightforward sequence, a common pattern for handling incoming data and then processing it after a brief pause.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states it \"starts with a Webhook node.\" So, my immediate thought is to drag a Webhook node onto the canvas.\n\n* **Node Type**: I'd pick the `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node. It's the standard for receiving incoming HTTP requests, which is exactly what's implied by \"starts with a Webhook.\"\n* **Type Version**: I'd use `typeVersion: 1`, which is the current stable version for this node. I wouldn't expect an older version to have different fundamental behavior for a simple webhook trigger, but it's good to note the version.\n* **Name**: I'll keep the default name \"Webhook\" for now; it's clear and concise.\n* **Configuration**: For a webhook, a unique path is automatically generated by n8n or can be specified. The provided JSON shows a path like \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\". I wouldn't manually input that, the system usually handles it. The `options` are empty, meaning no specific response mode or authentication is set up yet, which is fine for a basic starting point. This node will simply listen for incoming data.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"then waits for 2 seconds using a Wait node.\" This is a clear instruction for the next step. After receiving data via the Webhook, I need to pause the workflow's execution.\n\n* **Node Type**: The `Wait` node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.wait`, is designed for precisely this purpose \u2013 introducing a delay.\n* **Type Version**: Again, `typeVersion: 1` would be my choice.\n* **Connection**: This `Wait` node needs to execute *after* the Webhook receives data. So, I'd connect the `main` output of the \"Webhook\" node to the `main` input of this new \"Wait\" node. This ensures that the data flow is sequential.\n* **Name**: \"Wait\" is a perfectly suitable name.\n* **Configuration**: This is where the \"2 seconds\" comes in. Looking at the `Wait` node's parameters, there are typically fields for `amount` and `unit`. To achieve a 2-second wait, I'd set the `amount` to `2` and the `unit` to `seconds`. This directly translates the prompt's requirement into the node's configuration.\n\nFinally, the prompt states \"and finally uses a Set node.\" This tells me what the last step in this sequence should be. A `Set` node is often used for data manipulation \u2013 adding, removing, or modifying fields. In this case, it might just be the endpoint, or it could be a placeholder for future data transformation.\n\n* **Node Type**: I'd choose the `Set` node, `n8n-nodes-base.set`. It's a very flexible node for data manipulation within the workflow.\n* **Type Version**: `typeVersion: 1` would be used here.\n* **Connection**: This `Set` node needs to execute *after* the \"Wait\" node has finished its 2-second delay. So, I'd connect the `main` output of the \"Wait\" node to the `main` input of this \"Set\" node. This ensures that any data that came from the Webhook, and then waited, is now passed along to the Set node.\n* **Name**: \"Set\" works perfectly fine as its name.\n* **Configuration**: The JSON shows `{\"options\": {}}`. This means the `Set` node, as configured here, isn't actually adding or modifying any fields. It's essentially acting as a passthrough for the data at this point, or it's ready for future configuration to add specific values or expressions. This is perfectly valid; sometimes you build the structure first and then fill in the specifics of data manipulation.\n\nOnce all the nodes are placed and connected, and their parameters are configured according to the prompt's requirements, the last thing to do is ensure the overall workflow itself has the correct name: \"Webhook wait set\". I'd check the workflow settings to ensure this matches. And that completes the initial design based on the prompt. The workflow now has a trigger, a delay, and a final processing\/passthrough step." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow named \"My workflow\" that triggers every minute and makes an HTTP GET request to \"https:\/\/n8n-render-lamachine-xlsi.onrender.com\/healthz\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{\"field\": \"minutes\", \"minutesInterval\": 1}]}}, \"name\": \"Schedule Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/n8n-render-lamachine-xlsi.onrender.com\/healthz\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 4.2, \"position\": [220, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Schedule Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down how I'd approach building this n8n workflow from scratch, based on the user's prompt and then verifying it against the provided JSON.\n\nThe user prompt is pretty clear: \"Create a workflow named \"My workflow\" that triggers every minute and makes an HTTP GET request to \"https:\/\/n8n-render-lamachine-xlsi.onrender.com\/healthz\".\"\n\nFirst things first, I need a name for the workflow. The prompt says \"My workflow\", so I'd set that right away in the workflow settings.\n\nNow, let's think about the actual functionality.\n\n**Step 1: The Trigger**\nThe prompt specifies that the workflow \"triggers every minute\". This immediately tells me I need a node that can initiate a workflow execution on a recurring schedule.\n\n* **Node Choice:** The perfect node for this is the **Schedule Trigger** node. It's designed exactly for time-based scheduling. I'd drag this node onto the canvas as my starting point. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`, and the JSON shows `typeVersion: 1.2`. This is a standard and stable version for this trigger.\n* **Configuration:** For the \"every minute\" part, I'd go into the Schedule Trigger's parameters. There's usually an option to set a recurrence rule. I would select \"Every\" and then specify \"minute\" with an interval of \"1\". Looking at the JSON, this maps to `parameters.rule.interval` where `field` is \"minutes\" and `minutesInterval` is `1`. This setup perfectly matches the requirement to trigger every minute. There are no other complex recurrence rules needed, so the simple interval setting is sufficient.\n\n**Step 2: The Action**\nOnce the workflow is triggered every minute, what does it need to do? It needs to \"make an HTTP GET request to \"https:\/\/n8n-render-lamachine-xlsi.onrender.com\/healthz\"\".\n\n* **Node Choice:** To make an HTTP request, the go-to node is the **HTTP Request** node. It's incredibly versatile for interacting with web services. I'd add this node after my Schedule Trigger. The JSON confirms its `type` as `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` and `typeVersion: 4.2`. Version 4.2 is quite capable and would handle a simple GET request without any issues.\n* **Connecting the Nodes:** Now, I need to connect the Schedule Trigger to the HTTP Request node. The output of the Schedule Trigger should feed into the input of the HTTP Request node, ensuring that every time the schedule fires, the HTTP request is made. The JSON shows `connections: {\"Schedule Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This confirms a standard connection from the main output of the trigger to the main input of the HTTP Request node. This is exactly what I'd set up visually.\n* **Configuration:**\n * **URL:** The prompt explicitly gives the URL: \"https:\/\/n8n-render-lamachine-xlsi.onrender.com\/healthz\". I would paste this URL directly into the \"URL\" field within the HTTP Request node's parameters. The JSON correctly shows `parameters.url: \"https:\/\/n8n-render-lamachine-xlsi.onrender.com\/healthz\"`.\n * **Method:** The prompt specifies \"HTTP GET request\". By default, the HTTP Request node usually performs a GET request if no other method (like POST, PUT, DELETE) is explicitly selected. The JSON shows `parameters.options: {}`, meaning no specific method or other advanced options like headers, query parameters, or body data are configured. This implies the default GET method is used, which perfectly aligns with the prompt's requirement. If it were a POST, I'd explicitly select POST and then potentially configure a request body. But for a simple GET, the default works.\n\nThat pretty much covers it. The workflow starts with a trigger on a schedule, and then it executes the desired HTTP GET request. The overall structure is quite simple and direct, which is often the best approach for these types of tasks." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile Extracting LinkedIn profile data\" that, when triggered by a webhook at \"onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/ExtractingLinkedInProfileData\", fetches content from the Google Docs URL \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1E1w5t2EGYFL2coJo3QPP_eQYhthxiTcGa1CDVS_ORLM\/edit?tab=t.0\" and then responds to the webhook with the retrieved document content.

The goal is to set up an n8n workflow that gets triggered by a webhook, fetches content from a Google Docs URL, and then sends that content back as a response to the webhook.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the prompt, it clearly states \"when triggered by a webhook\". So, the very first node we'll need is a **Webhook** node. This is going to be the entry point for our workflow.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **Type Version:** `2`\n\nNow, why this specific node? Because it's designed to listen for incoming HTTP requests and then kick off the workflow. It's perfect for what we need here. We'll configure its parameters. The prompt specifies a path: \"onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/ExtractingLinkedInProfileData\". So, we'll set the `path` parameter to that exact string. This ensures that the webhook only triggers when a request comes to this specific endpoint.\n\nFor the `responseMode`, it's set to `responseNode`. This is crucial. It means we're not immediately sending a response from this Webhook node itself. Instead, we're explicitly telling n8n that a later node in the workflow will handle sending the HTTP response back to the client that triggered the webhook. This is exactly what we want since we need to fetch content first before responding. A different version of this node might have slightly different options for response handling, but version 2's `responseNode` option perfectly fits our multi-step process.\n\nOkay, so we have our trigger. What's next? The prompt says \"fetches content from the Google Docs URL\". This immediately tells me we'll need a node that can interact with Google Docs. n8n has a dedicated **Google Docs** node, which is ideal for this.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`\n* **Type Version:** `2`\n\nWe'll connect this `Google Docs` node directly to the `Webhook` node's \"main\" output. This means that as soon as the webhook is triggered, the workflow will proceed to try and fetch the document.\n\nInside the Google Docs node, we need to specify what operation we want to perform. Since we're fetching content, the `operation` should be set to `get`. This will retrieve the content of a document. Then, we need to tell it *which* document to get. There's a `documentURL` parameter where the specific Google Docs URL provided in the prompt would be configured. This node also requires credentials to access Google Docs, which would be set up generically through an OAuth2 API credential. Using version 2 here likely gives us the most up-to-date features and authentication methods for interacting with Google Docs.\n\nNow we have the content. The final step, according to the prompt, is to \"then responds to the webhook with the retrieved document content.\" This clearly indicates we need a node specifically for responding to webhooks. That's where the **Respond to Webhook** node comes in handy.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`\n* **Type Version:** `1.1`\n\nWe'll connect the `Google Docs` node's \"main\" output to the `Respond to Webhook` node. This ensures that once the document content is successfully retrieved, we move on to sending it back.\n\nInside this `Respond to Webhook` node, we need to decide how to respond. The prompt specifies sending \"the retrieved document content.\" So, we'll set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`. This allows us to send the content as plain text. For the actual `responseBody`, we need to reference the data that came out of the Google Docs node. When the Google Docs node retrieves a document, the content is usually available under a property like `content` in its output. So, we'd use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` to dynamically pull that content and include it in the response body. This makes sure that whatever the Google Docs node fetched is what gets sent back to the original webhook caller. Version 1.1 for this node is perfectly capable of handling this kind of dynamic text response.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the core logic of the workflow. We've got the trigger, the action to get the data, and the final response.\n\nFinally, the prompt also asks to tag the workflow with \"Day4\", \"Lg\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding\". These are metadata tags that would be applied to the overall workflow itself within n8n's settings, making it easier to organize and find later.

The goal is to detect new files in Google Drive and then send an email.\n\nFirst, I need a way to listen for changes in Google Drive. The prompt specifically says \"triggers when a file is created in the Google Drive folder.\" This immediately tells me I need a Google Drive trigger. Looking at the available nodes, the `n8n-nodes-base.googleDriveTrigger` node seems like the perfect fit for this. It's designed to react to events happening within Google Drive. I'd be using `typeVersion: 1` for this node.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Google Drive Trigger node? The prompt states \"when a file is created.\" So, within the node's parameters, I'd set the `event` to `fileCreated`. This ensures it only activates when a new file appears, not for updates or deletions.\n\nThe prompt also specifies a \"Google Drive folder with ID `1HwOAKkkgveLji8vVpW9Xrg1EsBskwMNb`.\" This means I need to narrow down where the trigger listens. For the `triggerOn` parameter, I'll select `specificFolder`. This allows me to then specify the exact folder. In the `folderToWatch` field, I would configure the provided Google Drive folder ID. Of course, for this node to work, it also needs to authenticate with Google Drive, so I'd ensure appropriate Google Drive OAuth2 API credentials are selected, linking it to the correct Google account that has access to that folder.\n\nOnce a file is created and the Google Drive Trigger fires, what's next? The prompt says \"The workflow should then send an email.\" This clearly indicates the next step is an email sending node. I'll look for an Email node, specifically one for sending. The `n8n-nodes-base.emailSend` node is the standard choice for this. I'll use `typeVersion: 1` for it.\n\nNow, I need to connect these two nodes. The output of the \"Google Drive Trigger\" node, which contains information about the newly created file, needs to feed into the \"Send Email\" node. So, I'd draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"Google Drive Trigger\" node to the `main` input of the \"Send Email\" node. This ensures that when the trigger activates, the workflow proceeds to send the email, and the data about the created file is available to the email node.\n\nLet's configure the \"Send Email\" node.

The body `text` parameter needs to be an expression to dynamically insert the file name. The Google Drive Trigger node, when it activates, outputs data about the created file, typically including its name. The expression `{{$json[\"name\"]}}` tells the Email Send node to look into the incoming data (from the previous node, which is the Google Drive Trigger's output) and extract the value of the `name` field. This `name` field would contain the name of the file that was just created in Google Drive. This is a common pattern in n8n for passing data between nodes. Just like the Google Drive Trigger, the Email Send node also needs credentials. In this case, it would require SMTP credentials to be configured, allowing it to send emails through an email server." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a Webhook node set to path 'webhook' that responds with all entries from the last node. Connect this to a Google Sheets node configured to read from the range 'Problems!A:D' in the sheet ID '17fzSFl1BZ1njldTfp5lvh8HtS0-pNXH66b7qGZIiGRU'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"range\": \"Problems!A:D\", \"options\": {}, \"sheetId\": \"17fzSFl1BZ1njldTfp5lvh8HtS0-pNXH66b7qGZIiGRU\"}, \"name\": \"Google Sheets\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [700, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"webhook\", \"options\": {}, \"responseData\": \"allEntries\", \"responseMode\": \"lastNode\"}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Sheets\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start sketching out this workflow. The prompt gives us a clear starting point and an end goal, so that's helpful.\n\nThe first thing the prompt mentions is \"starting with a Webhook node\". This immediately tells me what my entry point needs to be. I'll need a node that can listen for incoming HTTP requests, because that's what a Webhook does \u2013 it's how external systems or services can trigger this workflow.\n\nSo, I'd bring in a **Webhook** node. Looking at the provided JSON, it's of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion` 1. This is the standard, reliable way to kick off a workflow based on an external call.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Webhook node? The prompt specifies \"set to path 'webhook'\". So, in the parameters for the Webhook, I'd set the `path` option to `webhook`. This means that when the workflow is active, its unique URL will have `\/webhook` at the end, making it accessible at something like `your-n8n-instance.com\/webhook`.\n\nThe prompt also states \"that responds with all entries from the last node\". This is an important detail for the Webhook's output behavior. I'd configure the `responseData` parameter to `allEntries`. This ensures that whatever data is processed downstream and ultimately comes out of the *final* node in the chain will be sent back as the HTTP response to the original caller. To fully align with \"from the last node,\" I'd also set the `responseMode` to `lastNode`. This combination ensures the Webhook waits for the entire subsequent operation to complete and then uses the data from that last step for its response.\n\nNext up, the prompt says \"Connect this to a Google Sheets node configured to read from the range 'Problems!A:D' in the sheet ID '17fzSFl1BZ1njldTfp5lvh8HtS0-pNXH66b7qGZIiGRU'.\"\n\nSo, the natural progression from the Webhook is to add a **Google Sheets** node. I'd drag one onto the canvas. From the JSON, I see its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets` and it's `typeVersion` 1. This is the dedicated node for interacting with Google Sheets, allowing us to read, write, update, or delete data.\n\nThe connection from the Webhook to the Google Sheets node would be a standard `main` connection. This means the execution flow goes directly from the Webhook to the Google Sheets node. The Webhook isn't passing any specific input data *to* Google Sheets in this setup that Google Sheets needs for its operation, it's primarily just triggering its execution.\n\nNow for the Google Sheets node's configuration. The prompt gives us specific details:\n* \"read from the range 'Problems!A:D'\": So, I'd set the `range` parameter to `Problems!A:D`. This tells the node exactly which cells to retrieve data from within the spreadsheet. The \"Problems!\" part suggests a specific sheet or tab name within the larger Google Sheet document.\n* \"in the sheet ID '17fzSFl1BZ1njldTfp5lvh8HtS0-pNXH66b7qGZIiGRU'\": This is the identifier for the specific Google Sheet document itself. I'd place this value into the `sheetId` parameter. This is crucial for the node to locate the correct document on Google Drive.\n* For `options`, the JSON shows an empty object `{}`, meaning no special options like skipping headers or limiting rows are set for the read operation. It's a straightforward read.\n* Finally, the Google Sheets node will need credentials to access Google's API. The JSON shows `{\"googleApi\": \"\"}`, indicating that a Google API credential would need to be configured here, allowing n8n to authenticate and perform operations on your behalf within Google Sheets. Without those, the node wouldn't be able to connect to your sheet.\n\nSo, the workflow would effectively:\n1. Receive an external request at the configured webhook path.\n2. Trigger the Google Sheets node.\n3. The Google Sheets node reads the specified range from the specified sheet.\n4. The data read by Google Sheets becomes the output of that node.\n5. Since the Webhook was configured to respond with `allEntries` from the `lastNode`, the data that just came out of the Google Sheets node (which is indeed the last node in this simple chain) will be sent back as the HTTP response to the original request that triggered the webhook.\n\nThis looks like it perfectly fulfills all the requirements laid out in the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a `manualTrigger` node named 'When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019', connected to a `set` node named 'Edit Fields', which then connects to another `set` node named 'Edit Fields1'.

I'm looking at the requirements here, and it seems like a pretty straightforward flow initially, with a couple of interesting additions.\n\nFirst off, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick it off. The prompt clearly states \"starting with a `manualTrigger` node.\" This is perfect for when you want to run the workflow on demand, perhaps for testing or for a process that isn't event-driven. So, my first step will be to add a `manualTrigger` node. Looking at the JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node, `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, is specifically designed to run the workflow when you hit the \"Execute Workflow\" or \"Test workflow\" button in the n8n UI. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters for its basic functionality, which is why its `parameters` object is empty in the JSON. I'll name it \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" as per the request, placing it at a convenient starting position, say `[280, 320]`.\n\nNow, what's next? The prompt says it's \"connected to a `set` node named 'Edit Fields'.\" A `set` node (`n8n-nodes-base.set`, `typeVersion: 3.2`) is extremely useful for manipulating data passing through the workflow. You can add new fields, modify existing ones, or even remove them. In this case, \"Edit Fields\" implies we'll be doing some kind of data transformation, though the specific configuration (`\"options\": {}` and empty `parameters`) suggests it's currently set up without any active field manipulations. It's probably a placeholder or ready to be configured later. The connection will be a `main` output from our `manualTrigger` to the `main` input of this `set` node. So, the `manualTrigger`'s output data will flow directly into \"Edit Fields\". I'll position this node to the right of the trigger, perhaps at `[500, 320]`, keeping it in line.\n\nFollowing that, the prompt specifies \"which then connects to another `set` node named 'Edit Fields1'.\" This is very similar to the previous step. We're using another `set` node (`n8n-nodes-base.set`, `typeVersion: 3.2`), likely for further data manipulation or as another placeholder. Again, the `parameters` and `options` are empty, meaning it's ready for configuration. The reason for having two consecutive `set` nodes could be to separate logical groups of data transformations, or simply because different teams might be responsible for different stages of data preparation. The connection will be from \"Edit Fields\" to \"Edit Fields1\", again using the `main` connection. The output from the first `set` node will feed directly into the second. I'll place this one further to the right, perhaps `[720, 320]`, maintaining the horizontal flow.\n\nAlright, the main sequence is set up. Now, for the interesting part: \"Additionally, include two unconnected nodes named 'Unknown node 1' (type: `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist`) and 'Unknown node 2' (type: `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither`), positioned below the main sequence.\"\n\nThese are clearly hypothetical node types, indicating that they won't actually function in a real n8n environment, but the request is to include them as specified. This might be for demonstrating how unconnected nodes appear or for testing workflow structure rather than functionality.\n\nSo, I'll add the first one, \"Unknown node 1,\" with `type: n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist` and `typeVersion: 1`. Since it's unconnected, it won't have any inputs or outputs defined in the `connections` object. Its `parameters` are also empty. I need to place it \"below the main sequence.\" So, if my main sequence is around y-coordinate `320`, I'll place these lower, perhaps starting at `[400, 500]` for \"Unknown node 1.\"\n\nAnd finally, the second one: \"Unknown node 2,\" with `type: n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither` and `typeVersion: 1`. Like its counterpart, it's unconnected and its `parameters` are empty. I'll place it next to \"Unknown node 1,\" still below the main sequence, perhaps at `[600, 500]`. These nodes simply exist on the canvas without participating in the data flow.\n\nThat completes the structure based on the prompt. The `manualTrigger` starts the flow, passing data (even if it's just an empty item initially) to the first `set` node. That `set` node then passes its output to the second `set` node, which concludes the primary data path. The two \"Unknown node\" types are present but isolated." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFile How to Set Up AI Triggers?'.

The prompt is clear: we need something that gets triggered, fetches a Google Doc, and sends that content back. And of course, it needs to be properly named and tagged for discoverability.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the requirements, it says \"triggered by a webhook.\" So, that's my immediate thought for the first node. I'll drag over a **Webhook** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the version here is `2`. This is perfect for listening for incoming HTTP requests, which is exactly what a webhook does. It'll just sit there, waiting for someone to ping it.\n\nNow, how should I configure this Webhook node? I see it has a `path` parameter. This is essentially the unique endpoint URL that the webhook will listen on. It's crucial for identifying *this specific* workflow when an external system sends a request. I'll make sure that's set up appropriately, though the specific value isn't something I'd think about here, just that it needs a path. Then there's `responseMode`. The prompt says \"respond to the webhook with that retrieved content,\" which implies we're going to handle the response ourselves within the workflow, not let the webhook node send an immediate generic response. So, `responseMode` should definitely be set to `responseNode` to allow a subsequent node to craft the final reply. This gives us full control over what's sent back to the caller.\n\nOkay, so the webhook is set up to receive and wait for a custom response. What's next? The prompt states: \"retrieve the document content from the Google Docs URL.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can interact with Google Docs. Naturally, the **Google Docs** node comes to mind. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and I see it's using `typeVersion 2`. This is the right tool for the job.\n\nI'll connect the `Webhook` node's \"main\" output to the `Google Docs` node's \"main\" input. This ensures that once the webhook is triggered, the execution flow moves directly to fetching the document.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Google Docs node? The core operation here is to *get* a document. So, the `operation` parameter should definitely be set to `get`. And then, critically, it needs to know *which* document to get. The prompt provides a specific Google Docs URL. So, I'll put that URL into the `documentURL` parameter. This tells the node exactly where to fetch the content from. Also, to access Google Docs, this node will require authentication. It has a `credentials` field, meaning I'll need to link it to an appropriate Google Docs OAuth2 API credential. This credential would handle the necessary permissions to read the document.\n\nSo, at this point, we've received a request, and we've fetched the content of the Google Doc. What's the final step? The prompt says: \"then respond to the webhook with that retrieved content.\" This means I need a node that can take the content retrieved by the Google Docs node and send it back as the response to the initial webhook trigger. The perfect node for this is the **Respond to Webhook** node. It's type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, and it's `typeVersion 1.1` here. This node is explicitly designed to send a response back to the webhook that initiated the workflow, which is exactly what we need.\n\nI'll connect the `Google Docs` node's \"main\" output to the `Respond to Webhook` node's \"main\" input. This ensures that the document content is available for the response node.\n\nFor the configuration of the `Respond to Webhook` node: The goal is to send the *content* of the document. The Google Docs node, when it retrieves a document, typically outputs the document's text content in a field like `content` or `text` within its output JSON. So, I'd want to configure `respondWith` to `text` because we're sending plain document content, and then for `responseBody`, I'd use an expression to pull that content from the previous node's output. Something like `={{ $json.content }}` would be the way to reference the content from the Google Docs node's output. This dynamic expression ensures that whatever text the Google Docs node retrieved is sent back directly as the response body.\n\nFinally, I need to remember the workflow's overall properties. The name \"GetOnboardingFile How to Set Up AI Triggers?\" is already specified, which is great for identification. And those tags are important for organization and searchability within n8n. I'd make sure the workflow itself is tagged with 'AI Onboarding', 'Day 4', 'Files', and 'Onboarding' as requested. This helps categorize the workflow and makes it easier to find later amongst many others." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then uses a WordPress node to get all items.

The request is pretty clear: start manually, then grab all items from WordPress using specific credentials. I'll break down how I'd build this, node by node.\n\nFirst off, I always think about the starting point of any workflow. The prompt says \"starts with a manual trigger,\" which is straightforward. So, my very first step would be to drag and drop a Manual Trigger node onto the canvas.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **TypeVersion:** `1`\n* **Why this node:** This node is perfect for workflows that you want to initiate yourself, directly from the n8n interface by clicking the \"Execute Workflow\" button. It doesn't require any incoming data or external events; it just needs a human push. This makes it ideal for testing, development, or for processes that are run on-demand rather than on a schedule or in response to an event.\n* **Configuration:** Looking at the JSON, its `parameters` object is empty `{}`. This makes sense for a manual trigger; there isn't typically anything to configure on it other than its name. The name \"On clicking 'execute'\" is a very descriptive choice for clarity on the canvas. I'd typically place this node towards the left, signifying the start of the flow, perhaps at position `[250, 300]` as indicated, which is a good starting point.\n\nNow that I have the workflow's entry point, I need to think about the next step: \"uses a WordPress node to get all items.\" This clearly indicates the next piece of the puzzle.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.wordpress`\n* **TypeVersion:** `1`\n* **Why this node:** When you need to interact with a WordPress site \u2013 whether it's creating posts, updating users, or fetching content \u2013 the dedicated WordPress node is the way to go. It abstracts away the complexities of the WordPress REST API, making it much simpler to perform common operations.\n* **Configuration:** This is where the specifics come in.\n * **Operation:** The prompt specifically mentions \"get all items.\" So, within the node's parameters, I'd set the `operation` to `\"getAll\"`. This tells the WordPress node to retrieve all available content (posts, pages, etc., depending on what \"all\" encompasses by default or if further options were set).\n * **Options:** The JSON shows an empty `options` object `{}`. This means I'm not applying any further filters, such as limiting the number of items, filtering by post type (e.g., only \"posts\" or \"pages\"), or sorting. It's a broad \"give me everything\" request. If the prompt had said \"get all posts,\" I might expect to see something like `{\"postType\": \"post\"}` in the options.\n * **Credentials:** This is absolutely vital for the WordPress node to connect to the correct site and authenticate. The JSON specifies `{\"wordpressApi\": \"wp_creds\"}`. This means I'm not putting sensitive information directly in the workflow itself. Instead, I'm referencing a pre-saved n8n credential set named \"wp_creds.\" This credential set would contain the actual WordPress site URL and the authentication details (like an API key, username\/password, or application password). Using credentials this way is best practice for security and reusability.\n* **Placement:** Logically, this node comes after the manual trigger, so I'd place it to the right, perhaps at `[450, 300]`, maintaining a clean left-to-right flow.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes so the WordPress operation executes after the manual trigger is pressed.\n\n* **Connection:** The `connections` section in the JSON shows `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wordpress\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`.\n* **How it works:** This means the primary output (labeled `main`) from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node flows directly into the primary input (also labeled `main`) of the \"Wordpress\" node. When the manual trigger fires, it generates an item (which for a manual trigger is often just an empty object or a minimal piece of data, as it's primarily about triggering execution rather than passing specific data), and this item is then passed to the WordPress node. The WordPress node doesn't necessarily need any data *from* the trigger; it just needs to be *told* to run. This simple main-to-main connection is the standard way to chain operations sequentially in n8n. The `index: 0` just refers to the first input slot on the WordPress node, which is typically the only one unless a node has multiple specialized inputs.\n\nAnd that's it. This setup precisely fulfills all the requirements laid out in the prompt. It's a clean, efficient two-node workflow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Receive updates when an event occurs in Asana\". It should start with an Asana Trigger node configured to monitor the \"Tweets\" resource in the \"Engineering\" workspace, using your \"asana\" API credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Receive updates when an event occurs in Asana\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"Tweets\", \"workspace\": \"Engineering\"}, \"name\": \"Asana-Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.asanaTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1490, 860]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get started on building this n8n workflow. The goal, as I understand it, is to create a workflow that proactively receives updates from Asana whenever a specific type of event occurs. This means we're looking for an event-driven workflow, not something that polls Asana periodically.\n\nSo, when I think about how to kick off a workflow based on an external event, my mind immediately goes to a \"Trigger\" node. Triggers are designed precisely for this purpose \u2013 they sit and listen for something to happen, then initiate the workflow.\n\nGiven the prompt specifies \"an Asana Trigger node\", that makes the choice very straightforward. I'd start by adding an \"Asana Trigger\" node.\n\nLet's look at the specific node details from the provided plan:\n\nThe node is named \"Asana-Trigger\", which is a good descriptive name for its purpose. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.asanaTrigger`. This confirms it's the dedicated node for integrating with Asana as a trigger. I see it's `typeVersion: 1`. This `typeVersion` indicates the specific version of the node's internal structure and available options. Typically, I'd make sure I'm using a stable, up-to-date version, but for now, version 1 is what's specified, and it works perfectly for this.\n\nNow, for configuring this Asana Trigger node. This is where we define *what* it should listen for.\n\nThe prompt states it should \"monitor the 'Tweets' resource\". So, within the Asana Trigger node's parameters, I'd need to set the `resource` field to \"Tweets\". This tells the node precisely which type of Asana object it should be tracking for changes. Asana has many resource types, like tasks, projects, users, etc., but we're specifically interested in \"Tweets\" in this case.\n\nNext, it needs to monitor this resource \"in the 'Engineering' workspace\". This is crucial for scoping the trigger correctly. Asana instances can have multiple workspaces, and we only want to listen for events within a specific one. So, I'd make sure the `workspace` parameter is set to \"Engineering\". This ensures we're not getting updates from other, irrelevant workspaces.\n\nFinally, for the trigger to actually connect to and receive data from Asana, it needs proper authentication. The prompt specifies \"using your 'asana' API credentials\". In the node's credentials section, I'd link it to an existing credential set named \"asana\". This credential typically contains an API key or OAuth token that allows n8n to securely authenticate with the Asana API. It's important that these credentials are pre-configured in n8n and are valid. I wouldn't put any actual secret values here; I'd just point to the pre-existing credential set.\n\nI also notice a `webhookId` provided: \"0de3b493-efb6-472c-99deb-80d28c89d28d\". This is important for a trigger node like this one. What often happens behind the scenes with trigger nodes that connect to external services is that n8n registers a webhook with that service. When an event (like a change to a \"Tweet\" resource in \"Engineering\") occurs in Asana, Asana will then send a notification to this specific webhook URL provided by n8n. This is how the workflow is instantly \"triggered\" without constant polling. So, this `webhookId` is essentially the unique identifier for that listener.\n\nSince the provided JSON only has this one node, this completes the initial setup for starting the workflow. The workflow would be inactive by default (`active: false`), so to actually start receiving events, I would need to activate it once all these configurations are in place.\n\nAt this point, if there were subsequent nodes, I'd be thinking about what data the \"Asana-Trigger\" node outputs (likely the details of the Asana event, like the updated \"Tweet\" object) and how the next node would consume that data.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to trigger something via a webhook, grab content from a specific Google Doc, and then send that content right back as the webhook response.\n\nFirst things first, any workflow that needs to be called from an external system \u2013 like an API call or a web request \u2013 needs a trigger. And the prompt explicitly mentions a \"Webhook trigger.\" So, that's our starting point, the absolute first node we'll drop onto the canvas.\n\n### Node 1: Webhook\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **Type Version**: `2`\n\nOkay, so we're starting with the Webhook node. Why this one? Because it's literally designed to listen for incoming web requests and kick off our workflow. It gives us a unique URL that external systems can hit. For its configuration, I'd want to make sure it's set up to allow a subsequent node to handle the actual response, not to respond immediately. This is critical because we need to fetch the Google Doc first. So, I'd set its `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This means it will wait for another node, specifically a \"Respond to Webhook\" node, to send the final reply. The `path` for the webhook would be automatically generated or could be customized to make the URL more readable, but for now, the system will handle that unique identifier.\n\nNext, after the webhook receives a call, what's the very next thing we need to do? The prompt says \"fetches content from the Google Docs URL.\" So, we need a way to interact with Google Docs.\n\n### Node 2: Google Docs\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`\n* **Type Version**: `2`\n\nThis seems like the most direct choice. The `googleDocs` node is purpose-built for this kind of integration. It's the standard way to connect to Google Docs within n8n. I'd connect this node directly from the \"Webhook\" node's output, meaning as soon as the webhook triggers, this Google Docs node will execute.\n\nNow, how do we configure it? We're not creating a document, or updating one; we're *getting* content from an existing one. So, the `operation` parameter needs to be set to `get`. Then, there's the `documentURL` parameter. This is where we'd input the specific URL provided in the prompt. It's crucial that this URL is accurate so the node knows exactly which document to retrieve. Of course, to access any Google Doc, especially if it's not publicly available or we want full text, we'll need credentials. So, I'd ensure that a Google Docs API credential has been set up and is selected for this node, allowing it to authenticate with Google's services.\n\nAfter the Google Docs node successfully fetches the document, it will output the content. What's the final requirement? \"responds to the webhook with the retrieved document's content.\" This is where our last node comes in.\n\n### Node 3: Respond to Webhook\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`\n* **Type Version**: `1.1`\n\nThis node is specifically designed for the task of sending a response back to the originating webhook call. Since we configured the initial \"Webhook\" node to wait for a `responseNode`, this is the perfect companion. I'd connect this \"Respond to Webhook\" node directly from the \"Google Docs\" node's output. This ensures that it only tries to respond *after* the document content has been successfully retrieved.\n\nFor its configuration, we need to decide *how* we're responding. The prompt implies just the content itself, so I'd set `respondWith` to `text`. This means the response body will be treated as plain text. And what text should it be? It needs to be the content fetched by the Google Docs node. So, for the `responseBody` parameter, I'd use an expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression dynamically pulls the value of the `content` field from the data output by the preceding node (our Google Docs node). This is the key to sending the actual document text back.\n\nFinally, just to tie everything together and fulfill all prompt requirements, I'd make sure the workflow's overall settings are correct: the `name` is \"GetOnboardingFilePromptchaining\", and it's marked as `active: true`. And, of course, add the specified `tags`: \"Day4\", \"PromptEngineer\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding\". These tags help with organization and searching later." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers whenever a new fulfillment is created in Shopify, and then creates a new task in Onfleet.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Creating an Onfleet Task for a new Shopify Fulfillment\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"topic\": \"fulfillments\/create\"}, \"name\": \"Shopify Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.shopifyTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [240, 440]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"create\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Onfleet\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.onfleet\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 440]}], \"connections\": {\"Shopify Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Onfleet\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start thinking through how we'd build this n8n workflow from scratch, based on the requirements and the JSON provided. The goal is clear: trigger on a new Shopify fulfillment and then create a task in Onfleet.\n\nFirst, I always think about the trigger \u2013 what kicks off this whole process? The prompt says \"whenever a new fulfillment is created in Shopify.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can listen for events from Shopify. Shopify is a popular platform, so n8n surely has a dedicated node for it. I'd look for something like a \"Shopify Trigger\" node.\n\nLooking at the JSON, indeed, the first node is named \"Shopify Trigger\". Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.shopifyTrigger`, which is exactly what I'd expect. This node is perfect because it's designed to set up a webhook in Shopify, allowing Shopify to send real-time notifications to n8n when specific events occur. The `typeVersion` is `1`, indicating its specific version, which is good to note for compatibility.\n\nNow, how do we configure this trigger? The key part is telling it *which* Shopify event we care about. The user prompt specified \"a new fulfillment is created.\" In the parameters for this \"Shopify Trigger\" node, I see `{\"topic\": \"fulfillments\/create\"}`. This is perfect! This `topic` directly corresponds to the Shopify webhook topic for when a new fulfillment is created. So, when Shopify creates a fulfillment, it will send a notification to the webhook URL that this node automatically registers, and our workflow will activate.\n\nFor any service like Shopify, we need to authenticate. The JSON indicates `credentials: {\"shopifyApi\": {\"id\": \"6\", \"name\": \"Shopify account\"}}`. This tells me that before this workflow can run, a Shopify API credential (likely an API key or access token, depending on Shopify's authentication method) must be set up in n8n and linked here. This ensures n8n has permission to register the webhook and interact with Shopify.\n\nSo, that's our trigger set up. Now, what happens *after* the fulfillment notification? The prompt says \"then creates a new task in Onfleet.\" This is our action step. The data from the Shopify Trigger node (details about the new fulfillment) will be passed along to the next node.\n\nFor the next step, I need a node that can interact with Onfleet and, specifically, create a task. Again, Onfleet is a common delivery management platform, so I'd anticipate a dedicated n8n node for it. I'd search for an \"Onfleet\" node.\n\nChecking the JSON, the next node connected to \"Shopify Trigger\" is indeed named \"Onfleet\", and its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.onfleet`. This looks correct for integrating with Onfleet. The `typeVersion` is also `1`.\n\nNow, how do we configure the Onfleet node to create a task? Within its `parameters`, I see `{\"operation\": \"create\", \"additionalFields\": {}}`. The `operation: \"create\"` is exactly what we need, as the goal is to *create* a new task. The `additionalFields: {}` is interesting; it's currently empty. In a real-world scenario, this is where I would typically map the details from the incoming Shopify fulfillment data (like the customer's name, address, order items, contact information) to the specific fields required by Onfleet to create a meaningful task. For example, I'd map the shipping address from Shopify to Onfleet's destination, and maybe the customer's name to the recipient field. Since it's empty here, it suggests either the default \"create\" operation requires minimal input by default, or this is a very basic setup. If I were building this out further, this would be my next area of focus for data mapping.\n\nJust like with Shopify, Onfleet requires authentication. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"onfleetApi\": {\"id\": \"2\", \"name\": \"Onfleet API Key\"}}`. This means an Onfleet API Key (or similar authentication token) must be configured in n8n and referenced by this node, granting n8n the permission to create tasks in Onfleet.\n\nFinally, let's look at the connections. The `connections` object shows `\"Shopify Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Onfleet\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This explicitly defines the flow: the primary output (`main`) of the \"Shopify Trigger\" node connects directly to the primary input (`main`, `index: 0`) of the \"Onfleet\" node. This confirms that once Shopify sends a fulfillment event, the data from that event is passed directly to the Onfleet node for processing.\n\nThe overall workflow structure is straightforward: a trigger node followed by an action node, a common pattern for many automation tasks. The `active: false` setting simply means the workflow isn't currently live and listening for events; it would need to be activated to start functioning." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger node. This node should then connect to and initiate a 'trigger' operation on a TravisCI node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [510, 350]}, {\"parameters\": {\"slug\": \"\", \"branch\": \"\", \"operation\": \"trigger\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"TravisCI\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.travisCi\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [710, 350]}], \"connections\": {\"TravisCI\": {\"main\": [[]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"TravisCI\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this n8n workflow designed. The goal is straightforward: a manual trigger, then kick off something in TravisCI.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to *start* the workflow. The prompt specifically asks for a manual trigger. That's easy enough.\n\nI'll bring in the `Manual Trigger` node. Its full type name is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and this particular one is `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it allows someone to explicitly click a button within the n8n editor or UI to start the workflow. It doesn't need to listen for webhooks or scheduled times; it's purely on-demand, which aligns perfectly with \"starts with a manual trigger node.\" I don't really need to configure any parameters for it; its purpose is just to provide that initial \"go\" signal. Its position is set at `[510, 350]` in the editor, which is just a visual placement.\n\nNext up, once the workflow is triggered, it needs to do something with TravisCI. The prompt says \"connect to and initiate a 'trigger' operation on a TravisCI node.\" This tells me exactly what the next node should be.\n\nI'll add a `TravisCI` node, which is `n8n-nodes-base.travisCi`, again `typeVersion: 1`. Its position is `[710, 350]`, so it's placed directly to the right of the manual trigger, which makes sense for a sequential flow.\n\nNow, how do these two connect? The manual trigger needs to tell the TravisCI node to do its thing. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the `On clicking 'execute'` (that's the manual trigger node's name) to the `main` input of the `TravisCI` node. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, it passes control (and an empty item, effectively just a signal) to the TravisCI node, telling it to execute.\n\nLet's configure the `TravisCI` node. The most crucial part here is the `operation`. The prompt explicitly says \"initiate a 'trigger' operation.\" So, I'll set the `operation` parameter to `\"trigger\"`. This tells the TravisCI node that its job is to trigger a new build for a repository.\n\nHowever, to trigger a build, the node needs to know *which* repository to trigger and possibly *which branch*. Looking at the JSON, the `slug` and `branch` fields are currently empty. This is where the actual details for the Travis CI repository would go. For example, the `slug` would be something like `my-github-org\/my-repo-name`, and `branch` would typically be `main` or `develop`, depending on which branch you want to build. These would absolutely need to be filled in for the workflow to function correctly in a real-world scenario. Without them, the TravisCI node wouldn't know what to trigger. The `additionalFields` object is also empty, suggesting no extra parameters are needed for this basic trigger operation.\n\nFinally, for the `TravisCI` node to communicate with the Travis CI API, it needs authentication. The `credentials` field points to `travisCiApi: \"travisCI\"`. This means I'd need to have a pre-configured credential entry named \"travisCI\" in n8n's credentials section. This is where an API token or key for Travis CI would be securely stored, allowing n8n to authenticate and make requests on behalf of the user. I wouldn't put any actual secret values directly in the workflow JSON; n8n handles that by referencing the credential ID.\n\nAnd looking at the connections, the `TravisCI` node's main output (`\"TravisCI\": {\"main\": [[]]}`) isn't connected to anything else. This implies it's the final step in this workflow. It triggers the build, and then the workflow is complete. That seems to fit the user's request perfectly. It's a simple, two-node sequential workflow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a 'When clicking Test workflow' manual trigger node.

My goal is to build something that fulfills the user's request: a manual trigger followed by an n8n node configured to manage credentials. I'll need to think about the best nodes for each part and how they link up.\n\nFirst things first, the user wants the workflow to \"start with a 'When clicking Test workflow' manual trigger node.\" That's pretty straightforward. Looking at the available nodes in n8n, the perfect fit for this would be the **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and I see here it's using `typeVersion: 1`. This node is ideal because it allows for immediate, on-demand execution of the workflow directly from the n8n editor, which aligns perfectly with the \"When clicking Test workflow\" part of the prompt. There aren't really any parameters to configure on this node itself; its purpose is simply to kick off the workflow when you manually activate it. It's the starting point, the entry gate for our workflow's execution.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the prompt says to \"Connect this to an n8n node configured to manage a 'credential' resource.\" So, my next step is to add an **n8n node**. This node, with the type `n8n-nodes-base.n8n` (and again, `typeVersion: 1` here), is specifically designed for interacting with the n8n instance's own API. It's what you'd use if you wanted to programmatically manage workflows, credentials, users, or even execution data within n8n itself. It's the right choice here because the request is to \"manage a 'credential' resource.\"\n\nAfter adding the n8n node, I need to connect it. The output of my Manual Trigger node will feed directly into the input of the n8n node. This ensures that once the workflow is triggered manually, the n8n node immediately receives an item (even if it's just an empty one) to begin its operation. This is a standard 'main' connection from the trigger to the subsequent processing node.\n\nNow, let's configure this n8n node. The prompt specifies a few things:\n1. It should manage a `'credential'` resource. So, within the n8n node's parameters, I'll set the `resource` field to `credential`. This tells the node what type of n8n entity it will be interacting with.\n2. It needs the `name` and `credentialTypeName` set to `'123'`. So, I'll put `'123'` into both the `name` parameter and the `credentialTypeName` parameter. These parameters are specific to managing credentials and would define the name of the credential being managed and the type of credential it is (e.g., \"n8nApi\", \"Webhook\", etc.), although in this case, both are set to the same generic identifier.\n3. Finally, it needs to use an `'n8nApi'` credential named `'n8n account'` with an ID of `10`. This is crucial because the n8n node needs to authenticate itself when making API calls to the n8n instance. So, in the node's `credentials` section, I'll select an existing credential of type `n8nApi`. This specific credential would have been pre-configured in the n8n environment, providing the necessary API key or token to authorize the n8n node's actions. The prompt mentions it's named 'n8n account' and has an ID of '10', so that's the one I'd choose from the list of available n8nApi credentials.\n\nAnd that's it. We have the Manual Trigger to start, connected to the n8n node, which is configured to interact with n8n's own credential management system, authenticated with a pre-existing n8n API credential. The flow is complete according to the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers manually, fetches a random cocktail recipe via HTTP request, and then translates the drink's instructions into Italian using LingvaNex.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"={{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strInstructions\\\"]}}\", \"options\": {}, \"translateTo\": \"it_IT\"}, \"name\": \"LingvaNex\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.lingvaNex\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"LingvaNex\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants to manually trigger something, grab a random cocktail recipe, and then translate the instructions into Italian. Sounds like a fairly straightforward sequence of operations.\n\nFirst things first, the trigger. The prompt clearly states \"triggers manually.\" So, naturally, the very first node we'll need is a manual trigger. I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. This node, specifically `typeVersion: 1`, is perfect for this as it does exactly what its name suggests: it allows the workflow to be started by a user clicking the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n editor or by a web hook specific to manual execution. It doesn't require any special configuration beyond just being present as the starting point. It simply acts as the initial signal to kick off the chain of events.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"fetch a random cocktail recipe via HTTP request.\" This immediately tells me I'll need a node that can make external web requests. The most suitable node for this in n8n is the `HTTP Request` node. So, I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` node. Looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`, which is the standard version for making web requests. This node will be connected directly to the output of our `On clicking 'execute'` node, establishing a direct flow: trigger -> make HTTP request.\n\nNow, how do we configure this `HTTP Request` node? We need to fetch a *random* cocktail recipe from an API. The provided JSON shows the `url` parameter is set to `https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php`. This URL is perfect; it's a known endpoint for the Cocktail DB API to get a random drink. The `options` parameter is empty, which implies a simple GET request without any special headers or body, which is what we need for fetching data from this public API. So, this node will execute, hit that URL, and return the JSON data containing a random cocktail.\n\nWith the cocktail recipe fetched, the final step is to \"translate the drink's instructions into Italian using LingvaNex.\" This clearly points to the `LingvaNex` node. So, I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.lingvaNex` node. This node, `typeVersion: 1`, is designed specifically for interacting with the LingvaNex translation service. It will need to take the instructions from the previously fetched cocktail and send them to LingvaNex for translation.\n\nThe connection for the `LingvaNex` node will come from the `HTTP Request` node. The data from the `HTTP Request` node, which includes the cocktail details, needs to flow into the `LingvaNex` node so it can access the instructions.\n\nNow, for the configuration of the `LingvaNex` node. The `text` parameter is crucial here. It needs to contain the actual instructions of the cocktail. The JSON shows `text: \"={{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strInstructions\\\"]}}\"`. This is an expression that tells n8n to pull data from a previous node. Specifically, it's looking at the output of the `HTTP Request` node. It accesses the `json` property (the parsed JSON response), then navigates into the `drinks` array (which typically contains the drink objects), takes the *first* item in that array `[0]` (since the random API call usually returns just one drink), and then extracts the value of the `strInstructions` field. This is exactly what we need \u2013 the drink's instructions.\n\nNext, the `translateTo` parameter is set to `\"it_IT\"`. This is the standard language code for Italian (Italy), precisely what the prompt requested. There's also an empty `options` object, indicating no advanced translation options are needed for this simple case.\n\nFinally, the `credentials` parameter is set to `\"LingvaNex\"`. This means that this node relies on pre-configured LingvaNex API credentials within n8n. I wouldn't include any actual API key here, but it's where a user would link their LingvaNex API key configuration that they've saved in n8n. This ensures the node has the necessary authentication to communicate with the LingvaNex service.\n\nSo, the full flow is: trigger manually, make an HTTP request to get a random cocktail, then pass the instructions from that cocktail to LingvaNex to translate them into Italian. Each step flows logically into the next, with data being passed along as needed. This design directly addresses all parts of the user's prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, retrieves the details of the 'hackernoon' forum using the Disqus node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get details of a forum in Disqus\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"id\": \"hackernoon\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Disqus\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.disqus\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Disqus\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think through building this n8n workflow from scratch. The goal here is pretty clear: we need to create a workflow that, when someone manually kicks it off, goes and fetches information about the 'hackernoon' forum using the Disqus platform.\n\nSo, the very first thing that comes to mind is how this workflow is going to start. The prompt explicitly says \"when manually triggered.\" That immediately points me to a specific node type in n8n. I'd go for the **Manual Trigger** node. This is perfect because it provides a simple button within the n8n interface that allows a user to initiate the workflow on demand.\n\nI'd add this node to the canvas. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and it's using `typeVersion: 1`. This node is really straightforward; it doesn't usually require any specific parameters to configure for its basic functionality, which is just to emit a signal when clicked. So, the `parameters: {}` in the JSON makes perfect sense. I wouldn't expect a different `typeVersion` to drastically change its core \"manual trigger\" behavior, maybe just add some minor internal optimizations or debugging capabilities, but its fundamental purpose remains the same.\n\nNow that we have our starting point, what's the next step? We need to actually interact with Disqus to get the forum details. So, naturally, the next node has to be a **Disqus** node. This is the one that's going to handle all the communication with the Disqus API for us.\n\nI'd drag and drop a Disqus node onto the canvas, placing it right after the Manual Trigger node, conceptually in the flow. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.disqus`, and the JSON shows it's also `typeVersion: 1`. This type of node is suitable because it encapsulates all the necessary API calls to Disqus, abstracting away the complexities of HTTP requests and authentication.\n\nOnce I have the Disqus node, I need to configure it. What are we trying to do? Get *details* of a specific forum. The prompt says 'hackernoon'. So, I'd look for a field or a parameter in the Disqus node that allows me to specify the forum's identifier. The JSON shows `parameters: {\"id\": \"hackernoon\"}`. This is exactly what I'd expect. The `id` parameter here tells the Disqus node *which* forum we're interested in retrieving information about. If we wanted to, say, list all forums or perform a different operation, the parameters would likely change to include an `operation` or `resource` field, but for getting a specific forum's details by ID, just providing the ID is typically sufficient for this node. The `additionalFields: {}` simply means we're not asking for any extra, optional data beyond the standard forum details.\n\nOf course, to connect to the Disqus API, this node will need credentials. The JSON has `credentials: {\"disqusApi\": \"\"}`. This tells me that a user would need to have previously set up their Disqus API credentials within n8n and then select them here. It's a placeholder, and in a real workflow, this would link to an actual credential set containing an API key or token that grants access to the Disqus platform.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The manual trigger needs to tell the Disqus node to execute. So, I would draw a connection from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (Manual Trigger) node's main output to the \"Disqus\" node's main input. The `connections` part of the JSON confirms this: it shows `On clicking 'execute'` has a `main` output that connects to the `Disqus` node's `main` input at index `0`. This ensures that when the Manual Trigger fires, it passes a single item (an empty item in this case, as the trigger itself doesn't generate data) to the Disqus node, prompting it to run its operation and retrieve the 'hackernoon' forum details. There are no complex data transformations needed between them; it's a simple sequential execution flow." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers when a new subscriber is added through a ConvertKit form, specifically for form ID 1657198.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Receive updates when a subscriber is added through a form in ConvertKit\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"event\": \"formSubscribe\", \"formId\": 1657198}, \"name\": \"ConvertKit Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.convertKitTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [690, 260]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down how I'd approach building this n8n workflow from scratch. The main goal here is quite clear: we need to kick off a workflow every time a new subscriber is added through a specific ConvertKit form \u2013 form ID 1657198, to be exact.\n\nMy first thought process immediately jumps to identifying the *trigger* for this workflow. Since we're dealing with an external service, ConvertKit, and we want to react to an event happening within that service (a new subscriber), I know I'll need a dedicated trigger node. n8n is great for this, as it offers specific trigger nodes for various applications.\n\nLooking at the n8n node list, I'd search for \"ConvertKit\" and expect to find a trigger option. And indeed, the provided JSON confirms exactly what I'd be looking for: a `ConvertKit Trigger` node. This node type, `n8n-nodes-base.convertKitTrigger`, is perfectly suited because it's designed to listen for events directly from ConvertKit via webhooks. It simplifies the whole process of setting up and managing those webhook connections. The `typeVersion` is `1`, which is important to note as it indicates we're working with the first version of this particular node's structure and parameters.\n\nSo, the very first and in this case, only node needed for this workflow, would be an instance of the `ConvertKit Trigger`. I'd drag that onto the canvas.\n\nNow, let's get into the configuration of this `ConvertKit Trigger` node. The core of any trigger node is defining *what* event it should listen for. The user prompt specifies \"when a new subscriber is added through a ConvertKit form.\" This tells me the specific event type I need to select within the node's parameters. Within the `parameters` block, I would set the `event` field to `formSubscribe`. This precise setting tells the node to only activate when a subscriber successfully signs up through a ConvertKit form. If I were to pick a different event, like \"tag added\" or \"purchase made,\" the workflow wouldn't trigger for new form subscriptions.\n\nNext, the prompt is even more specific: it's for \"form ID 1657198.\" This is critical because a ConvertKit account can have many forms. Without this filter, the workflow would trigger for *any* form subscription, which isn't what's desired here. So, within the same `parameters` section of the `ConvertKit Trigger` node, I would add another field for `formId` and populate it with the value `1657198`. This ensures that the workflow is highly targeted and only listens for new subscribers coming in specifically through that particular form.\n\nFinally, for n8n to actually communicate with ConvertKit, it needs authorization. The `credentials` property in the JSON, showing `convertKitApi: \"convertkit\"`, indicates that a pre-configured ConvertKit API credential needs to be selected. This credential would typically contain the necessary API key and secret that allows n8n to securely connect to the ConvertKit account, set up the webhook, and receive the event data. Without a properly configured credential, the trigger wouldn't be able to establish the necessary link with ConvertKit.\n\nAnd that's it! This single `ConvertKit Trigger` node, configured with the correct event type, the specific form ID, and the necessary ConvertKit API credentials, fully satisfies the requirement of generating a workflow that triggers when a new subscriber is added through the specified ConvertKit form. The `webhookId` that you see in the JSON would be automatically generated by n8n once this workflow is activated, as n8n registers the webhook with ConvertKit in the background. If we wanted to *do* something with that new subscriber's data, we would then add subsequent nodes after this trigger, but for just the triggering mechanism, this setup is complete." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'My workflow 8' that begins with an 'n8n Form Trigger' configured with a 'test' title and a 'test' field.

That's a good starting point for the overall workflow definition.\n\nNow, looking at the core functionality, the prompt states it \"begins with an 'n8n Form Trigger'\". This immediately tells me what my starting node must be. I need a trigger node that can capture form submissions. The `n8n Form Trigger` node type is perfect for this, as it's designed specifically for creating web forms within n8n.\n\nSo, I'll add an `n8n Form Trigger` node. Looking at the JSON, its `id` is \"9e685367-fb94-4376-a9a4-7f311d9f7e2d\", its `name` is \"n8n Form Trigger\", and its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is the standard, current version, so no concerns about compatibility there.\n\nNext, I need to configure this form trigger as per the prompt. It specifies \"configured with a 'test' title and a 'test' field\".\n* For the `formTitle`, the JSON shows `{\"formTitle\": \"test\"}`, which matches perfectly. This will be the visible title of the form when someone accesses its URL.\n* For the fields, the prompt says \"a 'test' field\". The JSON confirms this with `{\"formFields\": {\"values\": [{\"fieldLabel\": \"test\"}]}}`. This means the form will have a single input field, and its label will be \"test\". This is straightforward and exactly what's requested.\n* There's also a `path` parameter: `\"path\": \"d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a\"`. This path is essentially a unique identifier that forms part of the URL where the form will be accessible. It's automatically generated by n8n and ensures the form has a distinct endpoint.\n\nAn interesting part of the prompt is \"ensuring the trigger includes example `pinData` showing two items\". The `pinData` section in the overall workflow JSON is crucial for testing. For the `n8n Form Trigger` node, I see `{\"n8n Form Trigger\": [{\"json\": {\"name\": \"First item\", \"code\": 1}}, {\"json\": {\"name\": \"Second item\", \"code\": 2}}]}`. This is fantastic! This `pinData` means that when I run a \"Test Workflow\" execution, the `n8n Form Trigger` node will *simulate* receiving two separate form submissions. Each simulated submission will contain an object with `name` and `code` properties. This is incredibly useful for setting up downstream nodes without having to manually submit the form multiple times during development. It allows me to immediately see how the subsequent nodes would process these two distinct items.\n\nOkay, so the trigger is set up. What's next? The prompt says \"Connect this trigger to a 'Switch' node\". This defines the very next step in the workflow's logic.\n\nSo, after the form trigger, the data needs to go into a `Switch` node. I'll add a `Switch` node. Looking at the JSON, its `id` is \"0f4dfe66-51c0-4378-9eab-680f8140a572\", its `name` is \"Switch\", and its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.switch` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is a standard `Switch` node. Its purpose is to direct workflow execution down different paths based on conditions. At this point, the JSON shows its `parameters` as empty `{}`, which means no specific conditions or paths are yet defined for the `Switch` node itself. This is common if the conditions are planned to be added later, or if it's just a placeholder for future logic branches. For instance, if the form had a dropdown, the `Switch` node might check the value of that dropdown to send the workflow down different paths. Since the prompt only asked for the connection, an empty configuration is perfectly valid for now.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The `connections` block in the JSON clearly shows this: `\"n8n Form Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This means the primary output (the \"main\" output) of the `n8n Form Trigger` node is connected to the primary input (the \"main\" input) of the `Switch` node. This ensures that any data received by the form trigger (or simulated via `pinData`) will be passed directly to the `Switch` node for processing.\n\nThe workflow is now structured as requested: a form trigger feeding directly into a switch node, with specific configurations for the trigger and example test data." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Cust1-variables' that starts with an 'Execute Workflow' trigger.

The request is quite specific: a workflow named 'Cust1-variables' that starts with an 'Execute Workflow' trigger and then uses a 'Set' node to define two variables.\n\nFirst things first, I need a starting point for any workflow. Looking at the requirements, it needs to begin with an 'Execute Workflow' trigger. This is a very common and flexible way to kick off a workflow. It means the workflow can be manually executed, or triggered via an API call, making it quite versatile. So, my very first node will be an 'Execute Workflow Trigger'. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is ideal because it doesn't require any specific incoming data to start; it just acts as a simple entry point. I'll place this at the beginning of my workflow canvas.\n\nNow, what's next? The prompt says it should \"then connect to a 'Set' node\". The purpose of this 'Set' node is to define variables. A 'Set' node is perfect for this. It allows me to explicitly add new data fields or modify existing ones on the incoming items. This is exactly what we need to create our `var1` and `var3`.\n\nSo, I'll add a 'Set' node. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and the `typeVersion` is `3.4`. It's good to note the `typeVersion` as it indicates how the node's parameters are structured; older versions might have slightly different layouts for defining variables. Version 3.4 is fairly recent and robust for this purpose. I'll also give it the specified name: 'Edit Fields'.\n\nNow for the connection. The 'Execute Workflow Trigger' needs to flow into the 'Edit Fields' node. This is a simple main connection, meaning the output of the trigger node, which usually contains a single empty item, will pass directly as input to the 'Set' node. The JSON confirms this: `connections` show the 'Execute Workflow Trigger' main output connecting to 'Edit Fields' main input. This ensures that when the workflow runs, the 'Set' node receives the initial item and can then add the variables to it.\n\nFinally, the configuration of the 'Edit Fields' (Set) node. The prompt specifies two variables: 'var1' as '123' and 'var3' as '321'. Inside the 'Set' node's `parameters`, there's an `assignments` object, which is where I define these variables. Each variable will be an individual assignment within this list.\n\nFor the first variable, I need to add an assignment where the `name` is 'var1' and the `value` is '123'. The `type` for this value is 'string', which is appropriate since '123' is being treated as a literal string in this context. Although it looks like a number, it's safer to keep it as a string unless mathematical operations are specifically intended.\n\nSimilarly, for the second variable, I'll add another assignment. Its `name` will be 'var3' and its `value` will be '321'. Again, the `type` will be 'string'. This ensures both values are stored as plain text.\n\nThis setup means that after the 'Execute Workflow Trigger' fires, the 'Edit Fields' node will take the single incoming item (from the trigger) and add `var1` and `var3` to it, with their respective values. The output of the 'Edit Fields' node will then be that single item, now enriched with `var1` and `var3`.\n\nThis completes the requirements. It's a very straightforward workflow designed purely to initialize some data. There aren't really any other nodes that would simplify this further for the stated goal. A 'Code' node could also achieve this, but 'Set' is purpose-built and more visually intuitive for simple variable assignments. So, the 'Set' node is definitely the right choice here." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a 'Manual Trigger' node named 'When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019'. Connect this to a 'Gmail' node set to 'get' messages, which then connects to a second 'Gmail' node also configured to 'get' messages.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\"}, \"name\": \"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 2.1, \"position\": [900, 460]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 460]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\"}, \"name\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 2.1, \"position\": [680, 460]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Gmail\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning out this n8n workflow. The user's prompt is clear about the overall structure, and the provided JSON gives us the precise details for each piece.\n\nFirst, I need a way to kick off this workflow. The prompt specifically asks for a 'Manual Trigger' node. This is perfect because it allows someone to manually initiate the workflow, which is super useful for testing or for processes that aren't time-based or event-driven. So, my initial thought is to add an n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger node. Looking at the JSON, I see a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This confirms my choice. The prompt also specifies the name: \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", and the JSON obliges with `name: \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\"`. No specific parameters are needed for a basic manual trigger, and the JSON shows an empty parameters object `{}`, which is what I'd expect.\n\nNext, the prompt says to connect this trigger to a 'Gmail' node set to 'get' messages. This means I'll need a node that can interact with Gmail, and specifically fetch emails. The n8n-nodes-base.gmail node is the go-to for anything related to Gmail. So, I'd bring in one of those. Looking at the JSON, I see a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\"` and `typeVersion: 2.1`. This is good; `typeVersion: 2.1` usually means it has some enhancements or bug fixes over older versions, ensuring we're working with a more robust node. For its configuration, the prompt states it should be set to 'get' messages. Checking the JSON's parameters for this node (which is named \"Gmail\" in the connections, even though its `name` field is empty in the nodes array), I see `{\"operation\": \"get\"}`. This perfectly matches the requirement. Of course, in a real scenario, this node would also need credentials configured to access a Gmail account, and potentially specific filters or queries to determine which messages to retrieve, but the `operation: \"get\"` is the core functionality here.\n\nNow, about connecting these two nodes. The prompt says the 'Manual Trigger' connects to this 'Gmail' node. In n8n, typically you connect the 'main' output of one node to the 'main' input of the next. The JSON's `connections` section confirms this: `{\"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This shows the output from our manual trigger flows directly into the first Gmail node, passing on whatever basic data the trigger node emits (usually just an empty item to start the workflow).\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that this first 'Gmail' node then connects to a *second* 'Gmail' node, also configured to 'get' messages. So, I'll need to add another n8n-nodes-base.gmail node. This is interesting \u2013 two Gmail nodes in sequence, both getting messages. This could be useful if, for example, the first node retrieves a list of email IDs, and the second node then uses those IDs to fetch the full message bodies, or if they're querying different mailboxes, or different sets of labels.\n\nLooking at the JSON, there is indeed a third node: `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\"` and `typeVersion: 2.1`, just like the first Gmail node. This consistency in `typeVersion` is good. For its configuration, the prompt says \"also configured to 'get' messages\", and its parameters in the JSON again show `{\"operation\": \"get\"}`. Perfect match. This second node doesn't have a specific `name` set in the JSON (`name: \"\"`), so n8n would likely label it \"Gmail1\" or similar by default, which aligns with how it's referenced in the connections. Again, credentials and specific 'get' parameters (like a query, folder, message ID from the previous node, etc.) would be set up here in a live workflow.\n\nAnd for the connection between the first and second 'Gmail' nodes, the JSON confirms this: `{\"Gmail\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. So, the data output from our first 'Gmail' node (likely a list of messages or message details) will be passed as input to the second 'Gmail' node's 'main' input. This allows the second node to potentially process or act upon the output of the first, perhaps fetching more details based on the initial query." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFilePromptchaining\" that uses a webhook to trigger, then reads content from the Google Doc at `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/12ZEcqMVOTFYxJEIiAVUa6DwNxJet1YXGneUsAr_nSaQ\/view`, and finally responds to the webhook with the document's `content` as text.

It also needs to be tagged appropriately.\n\nThe very first thing any workflow needs is a trigger. Since the prompt clearly states \"uses a webhook to trigger,\" my mind immediately goes to the **Webhook** node. This is the perfect starting point because it allows external systems or applications to initiate the workflow by sending an HTTP request.\n\nSo, I'd add a **Webhook** node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 2`.\nFor its configuration, the `path` parameter is essential. This defines the unique endpoint URL that the webhook will listen on. I'd set a path, keeping in mind it needs to be unique enough to avoid conflicts. The JSON shows a UUID-like string there, which is a good practice for uniqueness.\nThe `responseMode` parameter is also critical for this workflow. I'd set it to `responseNode`. Why `responseNode`? Because we're not responding immediately from the Webhook node itself. Instead, we need to perform an action (reading from Google Docs) and then use a *separate* node to formulate and send the response *back* to the original webhook caller. This separation gives us flexibility in processing before responding.\n\nNow that the workflow can be triggered, the next logical step is to fulfill the core requirement: \"reads content from the Google Doc.\" For interacting with Google services, the **Google Docs** node is the obvious choice.\n\nI'd connect the **Google Docs** node (`n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, `typeVersion: 2`) as the direct successor to the Webhook node. So, the `main` output of the Webhook node would connect to the `main` input of the Google Docs node. This ensures that when the webhook receives a call, the workflow immediately proceeds to fetch the document.\nInside the Google Docs node, the `operation` parameter would be set to `get`. We're not creating, updating, or deleting; we simply want to retrieve the content of an existing document.\nThe `documentURL` parameter is where the specific Google Doc's URL would be configured. This tells the node exactly which document to fetch the content from.\nCrucially, this node will require credentials to access Google Docs. I'd make sure the appropriate Google Docs OAuth2 API credentials are set up and selected, allowing the workflow to authenticate with Google on behalf of the user. Without this, it wouldn't be able to read the document.\n\nAfter successfully reading the content from the Google Doc, the final piece of the puzzle is to \"respond to the webhook with the document's `content` as text.\" This is where the **Respond to Webhook** node comes into play.\n\nI'd add a **Respond to Webhook** node (`n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, `typeVersion: 1.1`) right after the Google Docs node. The `main` output of the Google Docs node would connect to the `main` input of the Respond to Webhook node. This ensures that the response is only sent once the Google Docs content has been successfully retrieved.\nInside this node, the `respondWith` parameter would be set to `text`. The prompt specifically asks for the content \"as text,\" so this option aligns perfectly.\nThe most important part here is the `responseBody` parameter. This is where we'll specify *what* content to send back. The Google Docs node, when performing a `get` operation, typically outputs the document's content in a field like `content`. So, I would use an expression to dynamically pull that data from the previous node's output. The expression `={{ $json.content }}` is exactly what's needed. It accesses the data from the previous node's output (represented by `$json`) and specifically extracts the value of the `content` field. This ensures that the raw text content of the Google Doc is returned to the original webhook caller.\n\nFinally, looking at the overall workflow, it's also given a specific `name`: \"GetOnboardingFilePromptchaining.\" This is important for identifying the workflow within n8n. And the tags: \"Onboarding,\" \"Files,\" \"PromptEngineer,\" and \"Day4\" are assigned to help categorize and search for this workflow later on. These are just metadata but crucial for workflow management.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It's a straightforward sequence: trigger, fetch, respond. Each node performs its specific task, and the connections ensure a logical flow of data and execution." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"Webhook wait set\".

The user wants a workflow named \"Webhook wait set\" that starts with a Webhook, pauses for 2 seconds, and then proceeds to a Set node. Sounds like a straightforward sequence for handling an incoming trigger and then doing something after a delay.\n\nFirst things first, the workflow needs its name. I'll set that right at the top: `name: \"Webhook wait set\"`. This helps with organization and clearly identifies its purpose.\n\nNow, let's start building out the nodes. The prompt clearly states it needs to \"start with a Webhook node.\" This is fundamental for any workflow that needs to be triggered by an external event, like an API call or a form submission.\n\n* **Node 1: Webhook**\n * **Node Type:** I'll use the `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node. This is the standard node for receiving HTTP requests. It's the perfect entry point for an external trigger.\n * **Type Version:** It's `typeVersion: 1`. This is the stable and commonly used version, so I'll stick with it. I generally prefer to use the latest stable versions unless there's a specific reason to use an older one, which isn't the case here.\n * **Configuration:**\n * `path`: The JSON shows a `path` parameter. This is crucial; it defines the unique URL endpoint where the webhook will listen for incoming requests. This value is auto-generated by n8n when the workflow is activated, so I don't need to specify it manually during design, but it will be present. It ensures that the incoming request hits *this* specific workflow.\n * `options`: The `options` object is currently empty. This is where you might configure things like the HTTP method (GET, POST, PUT, etc.), specific headers, or authentication requirements if needed. For a basic trigger, leaving it empty is perfectly fine; it will default to listening for any method. I would keep in mind that if authentication were needed, like basic auth or query parameters, this is where I'd add those details, but for this specific request, it's not needed.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"connect to a Wait node configured for 2 seconds.\" This tells me the immediate action after receiving the webhook is to pause the workflow's execution for a set duration. This is often useful for rate limiting, giving an external system time to process, or simply introducing a delay before the next action.\n\n* **Node 2: Wait**\n * **Connection:** I need to connect the `Webhook` node's main output to the `Wait` node's main input. Looking at the `connections` in the JSON, it confirms `Webhook` connects to `Wait` on the `main` output. This means any data received by the Webhook will be passed directly to the Wait node.\n * **Node Type:** The `n8n-nodes-base.wait` node is exactly what's needed here. Its sole purpose is to pause execution for a specified period.\n * **Type Version:** Again, `typeVersion: 1` is the standard and correct choice.\n * **Configuration:**\n * `amount`: The prompt specified \"2 seconds.\" So, I'll set `amount: 2`.\n * `unit`: And naturally, the `unit` will be `seconds`. This combination ensures the workflow pauses precisely for two seconds before proceeding. If I needed a longer pause, say for a few minutes, I'd adjust the unit to 'minutes' and the amount accordingly. This configuration is very clear and directly implements the requirement.\n\nFinally, the prompt instructs to \"then connect to a Set node.\" A Set node is incredibly versatile. It allows you to add, modify, or remove data fields from the items flowing through the workflow. In cases where no specific data manipulation is needed, it effectively acts as a pass-through node, useful for debugging or just having a placeholder for future enhancements.\n\n* **Node 3: Set**\n * **Connection:** The `Wait` node's main output needs to connect to the `Set` node's main input. The JSON `connections` confirms this: `Wait` connects to `Set` on the `main` output. So, after waiting, the workflow execution flow and any data from the Webhook will proceed directly into the Set node.\n * **Node Type:** The `n8n-nodes-base.set` node is the appropriate choice. Even if no data is being explicitly set, it's a good general-purpose node for the end of a simple sequence or as a preparatory step for more complex logic that might follow.\n * **Type Version:** `typeVersion: 1`. Consistent with the other nodes.\n * **Configuration:**\n * `options`: The JSON shows `options: {}`. This means no specific fields are being added, modified, or removed. The Set node will simply take the incoming data (which at this point would be whatever the Webhook received), process it, and output it without changes.

That's always the starting point for anything that needs to be initiated by an external system or an HTTP request.\n\nSo, I'd start by dragging out a `Webhook` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and I see from the JSON that `typeVersion` is `2`. This is the perfect trigger for an external service to initiate our workflow.\n\nNow, how would I configure this `Webhook` node?\n* The prompt implies we need to send a response *after* processing, not immediately. So, for the `responseMode` parameter, I'd definitely choose `responseNode`. This tells the `Webhook` node, \"Don't send a response yourself; wait for another node in the workflow to handle it.\" This is crucial because we need to fetch the Google Doc content *before* responding.\n* For the `path`, I'd set up a unique, unguessable path. The JSON shows a UUID-like string. This ensures our webhook URL is unique and secure enough for general use. I wouldn't specify any other options right now; the default settings are usually fine for a basic trigger.\n\nNext up, the prompt says \"fetches the text content from the Google Doc URL.\" This clearly points me to a Google Docs integration. n8n has a dedicated `Google Docs` node, which is exactly what I'd look for.\n\nSo, I'd add a `Google Docs` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and the `typeVersion` is `2`. I'd connect the `Webhook` node's output to the input of this `Google Docs` node. The `Webhook` simply acts as the trigger here, passing no specific data for the `Google Docs` node, but just initiating the flow.\n\nHow do I configure this `Google Docs` node?\n* The goal is to \"fetch the text content,\" which translates to a \"get\" operation. So, for the `operation` parameter, I'd select `get`.\n* Then, I'd need to provide the `documentURL`. The prompt gives us the exact URL, so I'd input that here. This is how the node knows *which* document to retrieve.\n* Crucially, to interact with Google Docs, this node will need authentication. I'd ensure that a Google Docs OAuth2 API credential is properly set up and linked to this node. This credential allows n8n to securely access the Google Doc on behalf of the user.\n\nFinally, the prompt states, \"and responds to the webhook with the retrieved text.\" This tells me I need to use the data from the `Google Docs` node to formulate a response back to the original webhook trigger. The `Respond to Webhook` node is purpose-built for this.\n\nSo, I'd add a `Respond to Webhook` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, and the `typeVersion` is `1.1`. I'd connect the output of the `Google Docs` node to the input of this `Respond to Webhook` node. This connection ensures that the data retrieved by the `Google Docs` node is available for us to use in the response.\n\nNow, for configuring this `Respond to Webhook` node:\n* The prompt specifies \"responds ... with the retrieved text.\" So, for the `respondWith` parameter, I'd choose `text`. This is a direct match for the requirement.\n* For the `responseBody`, I need to insert the actual text content that the `Google Docs` node fetched. When the `Google Docs` node performs a \"get\" operation, it typically outputs the document content in a field like `content`. So, I'd use an expression here to access that specific data. The expression `={{ $json.content }}` is perfect for this. It tells n8n to take the data from the previous node (which is available under `$json`) and specifically pull out the value of the `content` field. This is how the retrieved text makes its way into the webhook response.\n* Again, no special options needed here.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps it up. The workflow starts with a trigger, fetches the necessary data, and then uses that data to provide the requested response, completing the cycle as described by the user." } { "prompt": "Design an n8n workflow that runs every minute to generate mock sensor data (sensor_id 'humidity01', random value, current timestamp, notification false) and insert it into a PostgreSQL table named 'n8n'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"mode\": \"everyMinute\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Cron\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cron\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [300, 250]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"var today = new Date();\\nvar date = today.getFullYear()+'-'+(today.getMonth()+1)+'-'+today.getDate();\\nvar time = today.getHours() + \\\":\\\" + today.getMinutes() + \\\":\\\" + today.getSeconds();\\nvar dateTime = date+' '+time;\\n\\nitems[0].json.sensor_id = 'humidity01';\\nitems[0].json.value = Math.ceil(Math.random()*100);\\nitems[0].json.time_stamp = dateTime;\\nitems[0].json.notification = false;\\n\\nreturn items;\"}, \"name\": \"Function\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.function\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 250]}, {\"parameters\": {\"table\": \"n8n\", \"columns\": \"sensor_id,value,time_stamp,notification\"}, \"name\": \"Postgres\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.postgres\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 250]}], \"connections\": {\"Cron\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Function\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Function\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Postgres\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow designed. The goal is pretty clear: we need to generate some mock sensor data regularly and then push it into a PostgreSQL database.\n\nFirst things first, how do we kick this whole thing off? The prompt specifies \"runs every minute.\" For a recurring schedule like that, the most straightforward and reliable way in n8n is to use a **Cron** node. So, that's definitely where we'll start. I'll add a Cron node, which is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.cron` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect for triggering workflows at specific intervals. Looking at its parameters, I'd set its `triggerTimes` to `everyMinute`. That ensures our data generation process happens precisely when needed, without any manual intervention. It's essentially the heartbeat of our workflow.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? We need to *generate* the data. The prompt specifies a `sensor_id` of 'humidity01', a random `value`, the `current timestamp`, and `notification` set to `false`. This kind of custom data generation, especially with a random element and current time, is perfectly suited for a **Function** node. I'll add a Function node, which is `type: n8n-nodes-base.function` and `typeVersion: 1`, right after the Cron node, connecting them via the 'main' output of the Cron node. The Function node allows us to write custom JavaScript to manipulate or create data.\n\nInside this Function node, I'll write the JavaScript code. We need to create an object (or modify the existing one that the Cron node might pass along, though in this case, Cron just triggers, so we're mostly creating from scratch within the item structure) with our specific fields.\n* For `sensor_id`, it's a fixed string: `'humidity01'`. Simple assignment.\n* For `value`, it needs to be random. `Math.random()` gives a float between 0 and 1, so `Math.ceil(Math.random()*100)` would give us an integer from 1 to 100, which is good for a mock humidity value.\n* For `time_stamp`, we need the current date and time. JavaScript's `new Date()` is our friend here. I'll format it into a string that PostgreSQL can easily understand, like `YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS`. So, `today.getFullYear()+'-'+(today.getMonth()+1)+'-'+today.getDate()` for the date part, and `today.getHours() + \":\" + today.getMinutes() + \":\" + today.getSeconds()` for the time part. Then concatenate them. It's important to get the format right so the database can parse it correctly.\n* And finally, `notification` is a boolean `false`.\n\nThe Function node should then `return items;` to pass this newly structured data along to the next node. This way, each time the workflow runs, it generates a fresh, unique data point.\n\nWith the data generated, the final step is to store it in PostgreSQL. For that, we need a **Postgres** node. I'll add a Postgres node, `type: n8n-nodes-base.postgres` and `typeVersion: 1`, directly after the Function node, connecting its 'main' output.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Postgres node?\nFirst, it needs to know which database to connect to. This is handled by its `credentials`. I'd select the appropriate PostgreSQL credential, which in the provided setup is generically named \"Postgres.\" This is where the actual connection details like host, database name, username, and password would be securely stored and linked.\nNext, we need to specify where to insert the data. The prompt clearly states the table is named 'n8n'. So, I'll set the `table` parameter to `'n8n'`.\nCrucially, we need to tell the Postgres node *which columns* in that table correspond to the data we just generated. Our data has `sensor_id`, `value`, `time_stamp`, and `notification`. So, I'd list these in the `columns` parameter: `'sensor_id,value,time_stamp,notification'`. This tells the node to map the incoming JSON data fields to these specific columns in the database table. The Postgres node will then automatically handle the SQL `INSERT` statement for us, making it very convenient.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it. The Cron node triggers, the Function node creates the data item, and the Postgres node inserts it. Each part flows logically into the next, ensuring the data generation and storage happen seamlessly every minute." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then reads an RSS feed from `https:\/\/failedmachine.com\/rss\/`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [260, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/failedmachine.com\/rss\/\"}, \"name\": \"RSS Feed Read\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.rssFeedRead\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 320]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"RSS Feed Read\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed from the ground up.\n\nThe very first thing I need to establish is how this workflow is going to kick off. The prompt clearly states it \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This makes it straightforward: I'll need a trigger node that fires when someone explicitly initiates the workflow. For this, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node is the perfect fit. It's designed exactly for this purpose \u2013 to start a workflow execution when the \"Execute Workflow\" button is clicked. I'll set its `typeVersion` to 1, which is standard for this node. I don't need to configure any specific parameters for it; its function is simply to begin the process. I'll give it a descriptive name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's clear what it does.\n\nNow, once the workflow is triggered, what's the next step? The prompt says \"then reads an RSS feed from `https:\/\/failedmachine.com\/rss\/`.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can handle RSS feeds. n8n has a dedicated node for this: the `n8n-nodes-base.rssFeedRead` node. This is the ideal choice because it's built to fetch and parse RSS feed content, which is exactly what's required. I'll add this node right after my manual trigger. I'll name it \"RSS Feed Read\" to keep things clear.\n\nNext, I need to think about how to configure this \"RSS Feed Read\" node. It obviously needs to know *which* RSS feed to read. The prompt provides the exact URL: `https:\/\/failedmachine.com\/rss\/`. So, within the parameters for this node, I'll set the `url` property to `https:\/\/failedmachine.com\/rss\/`. This is critical for the node to know where to go to fetch the feed data. Again, its `typeVersion` will be 1.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The `manualTrigger`'s job is simply to initiate the flow. It doesn't pass specific data that the RSS node *needs* to operate on, but rather it just signals that execution should proceed. So, a simple \"main\" connection from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the \"RSS Feed Read\" node is all that's required. This ensures that once the manual trigger fires, the workflow execution immediately moves to the RSS reading step. The `rssFeedRead` node will then execute, fetching the content from the specified URL.\n\nThat completes the workflow. It's a simple, sequential flow that perfectly addresses the user's request." } { "prompt": "Generate an N8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

The goal is pretty clear: we need something that kicks off manually, then adds the current ISO date and the current day of the week to the data that's passed along.\n\nFirst things first, how do we even start a workflow like this? The prompt specifically mentions a \"manual trigger.\" Looking at the n8n nodes available, the most straightforward option for that is definitely the `Manual Trigger` node. It's simple, literally just a button you click to start execution. So, that'll be our very first node. I'd call it something like \"On clicking 'execute'\" just like in the JSON, which is pretty descriptive. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and `typeVersion: 1` seems standard for this. It doesn't really have any parameters to configure, it's just there to initiate the flow.\n\nNow that we have our starting point, what's next? The prompt states we need to \"add the current ISO date as `date_today` and the current day of the week (e.g., 'Monday') as `day_today` to the output data.\" This sounds like we need to do some custom logic, some JavaScript code, to generate these values. When I think about custom code in n8n, the `Function` node immediately comes to mind. It's designed specifically for this kind of on-the-fly data manipulation and value generation using JavaScript.\n\nSo, the `Function` node will be our second step. It'll need to connect directly from our `Manual Trigger`. The connection will be a standard \"main\" connection, meaning the data (or lack thereof, initially, from the manual trigger) will flow from the trigger to the function node.\n\nLet's think about how to configure this `Function` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.function`, and `typeVersion: 1` is what we'll use. The core of this node is its `functionCode` parameter. This is where we'll write the JavaScript logic.\n\nInside the `functionCode`, we need to:\n1. Get the current date and format it as ISO. JavaScript's `new Date().toISOString()` is perfect for this. I'd store that in a variable, say `date`.\n2. Get the current day of the week. `new Date().getDay()` gives us a number (0 for Sunday, 1 for Monday, etc.).\n3. We need to convert that number into a human-readable day name (e.g., 'Monday'). The easiest way to do this is to define an array of weekday names and use the `day` number as an index into that array. Something like `const weekday = [\"Sunday\", \"Monday\", ..., \"Saturday\"];`.\n4. Then, we need to add these values to the *output data* of the node. The `Function` node typically receives an `items` array, where each element represents an item of data. Since the `Manual Trigger` doesn't pass any specific data initially, `items[0]` will represent the first (and only) item being processed. We want to add these new properties directly to the JSON data of that item. So, `items[0].json.date_today = date;` and `items[0].json.day_today = weekday[day];` will do the trick. This ensures the data is properly structured and passed along as JSON.\n5. Finally, and critically for a `Function` node, we need to `return items;`. This tells n8n to pass the modified `items` array to the next node in the workflow. Without this return statement, no data would flow out of the Function node.\n\nSo, the full `functionCode` would look something like this:\n```javascript\nvar date = new Date().toISOString();\nvar day = new Date().getDay();\nconst weekday = [\"Sunday\", \"Monday\", \"Tuesday\", \"Wednesday\", \"Thursday\", \"Friday\", \"Saturday\"];\n\nitems[0].json.date_today = date;\nitems[0].json.day_today = weekday[day];\n\nreturn items;\n```\nThis configuration ensures that when the `Manual Trigger` is clicked, it sends an empty item to the `Function` node, which then enriches that item with the desired date and day of the week before passing it on. It's a clean, efficient way to achieve the prompt's requirements.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps up the workflow based on the given JSON. It's a very straightforward two-node setup." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that uses an AMQP Trigger node to listen for and receive messages from an ActiveMQ queue.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Receive messages for an ActiveMQ queue via AMQP Trigger\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"sink\": \"\"}, \"name\": \"AMQP Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.amqpTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 200]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start thinking about how to build this workflow. The goal is quite clear: we need to receive messages from an ActiveMQ queue using an AMQP Trigger. This immediately tells me where we need to begin.\n\nThe most logical first step, and indeed the only step according to the provided JSON, is to introduce the trigger that will kick everything off.\n\nSo, the very first and only node we'll place onto our canvas is the \"AMQP Trigger\" node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.amqpTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nWhy this particular node? Well, the user prompt specifically asked for an \"AMQP Trigger node,\" and given that ActiveMQ communicates via AMQP, this is the perfect fit. This node is designed to act as the starting point of a workflow, meaning it will sit there, patiently listening for incoming messages on an AMQP broker. When a message arrives that matches its configuration, it will then trigger the execution of the rest of the workflow (though in this case, there isn't any \"rest\" of the workflow, it's just the trigger itself). The `typeVersion: 1` indicates we're using a specific iteration of this node's capabilities. If there were other versions, they might offer different features or slight changes in how parameters are handled, but for now, we're working with this foundational version.\n\nNow, let's think about how to configure this \"AMQP Trigger\" node. For it to do its job, it needs to know *where* to connect and potentially *how* to handle messages.\n\nLooking at the JSON, I see a `credentials` property:\n* `\"credentials\": {\"amqp\": \"\"}`\n\nThis is critical. An AMQP Trigger can't just magically connect to ActiveMQ; it needs the necessary connection details. This `amqp` property is a placeholder for a reference to an n8n credential. When a user configures this node in the n8n UI, they would select or create a new \"AMQP Account\" credential. This credential would contain all the sensitive bits: the hostname or IP address of the ActiveMQ server, the port it's listening on, any required username and password for authentication, and perhaps SSL\/TLS settings if the connection needs to be secured. Without this credential being properly set up, the node won't be able to establish a connection to ActiveMQ, and therefore, it won't be able to listen for any messages. So, the first practical step after placing this node would be to configure or select an appropriate AMQP credential.\n\nNext, I see the `parameters` property:\n* `\"parameters\": {\"sink\": \"\"}`\n\nThe `sink` parameter is an interesting one. In the context of AMQP, a \"sink\" often refers to a Dead-Letter Queue (DLQ). This is a mechanism for routing messages that for some reason couldn't be processed by the workflow. For instance, if the workflow encounters an error downstream and fails to acknowledge the message, the AMQP broker might re-queue it. If it fails repeatedly, or if there's a specific configuration for unacknowledged messages, they can be routed to a designated \"sink\" queue instead of being lost or stuck in an infinite retry loop. Since the value here is empty, it means that no specific dead-letter queue is configured for this trigger. For a basic message reception scenario, this might be fine, but for robust production systems, having a `sink` or DLQ is often a good practice for error handling and observability.\n\nIt's also worth noting, although not explicitly present in this minimal JSON snippet, that an AMQP Trigger node would *absolutely* need a queue name to listen to. The node's purpose is to \"listen for and receive messages from an ActiveMQ queue,\" so configuring *which* queue name it should listen on (e.g., \"my_activemq_queue\" or similar) would be a fundamental step when setting up this node in the n8n UI, even if this specific JSON only captures the `sink` parameter. This queue name is how the trigger knows exactly where to pull messages from.\n\nFinally, the workflow itself is marked as `\"active\": false`. This means even after configuring the credentials and queue name, the workflow won't start listening until it's manually activated in the n8n interface. It needs to be \"turned on\" to begin its job of receiving messages.\n\nAnd that's essentially the entire workflow. It's a single, self-contained trigger node ready to connect and listen. There are no other nodes, so no connections are needed. The workflow's job begins and ends with this trigger receiving a message. What happens *after* a message is received would be defined by subsequent nodes, but those are not part of this specific design." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFileChainofThought\" that triggers via a webhook.

The goal here is to create a workflow that acts as an endpoint, fetches content from a specific Google Doc, and then immediately sends that content back to whoever triggered it. This sounds like a perfect use case for a simple, linear flow.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a trigger. Looking at the prompt, it clearly states \"triggers via a webhook.\" So, the initial node has to be a Webhook node.\n\n**Webhook Node**\n* **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **TypeVersion**: `2`\n\nI'd place this `Webhook` node right at the start, at position `[0, 0]`, as it's the entry point of our workflow. For its configuration, the `path` parameter will be assigned a unique identifier by n8n, which is essential for defining the specific URL this webhook listens on. The critical setting here is `responseMode`. The prompt says we need to \"respond to the initial webhook with that content.\" This means the webhook itself won't send an immediate response; another node down the line will handle it. So, I'll set `responseMode` to `\"responseNode\"`. This tells the Webhook node to hold open the connection until a `Respond to Webhook` node is encountered later in the flow.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt says, \"fetch the content of the Google Doc.\" This points directly to using a Google Docs node.\n\n**Google Docs Node**\n* **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`\n* **TypeVersion**: `2`\n\nI'd connect this `Google Docs` node directly after the `Webhook` node. It should be positioned around `[220, 0]` to keep the flow clean and easy to read.\nThe operation for this node is straightforward: we need to \"get\" a document. So, I'll set the `operation` parameter to `\"get\"`.\nFor the `documentURL` parameter, the prompt gives us the exact URL, which I'll input here. This is where the node knows *which* document to fetch.\nAnd, of course, to access Google Docs, we need proper authentication. The prompt specifies \"using a Google Docs account credential.\" So, in the `credentials` section, a `googleDocsOAuth2Api` credential would be selected or configured. This ensures the workflow has the necessary permissions to read the specified document.\n\nFinally, we need to fulfill the last part of the prompt: \"respond to the initial webhook with that content as plain text.\" This is where the `Respond to Webhook` node comes in.\n\n**Respond to Webhook Node**\n* **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`\n* **TypeVersion**: `1.1`\n\nThis `Respond to Webhook` node will be the final step in our workflow, positioned at `[440, 0]`, connected directly from the `Google Docs` node. Its purpose is to send back the data we just retrieved.\nThe prompt asks for the content as \"plain text.\" So, I'll set the `respondWith` parameter to `\"text\"`.\nAnd for the `responseBody`, we need to use the content fetched by the Google Docs node. When the Google Docs node successfully retrieves a document, it typically outputs the document's text content in a field, often named `content` or `text`. To dynamically access this, I'll use an expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This tells the node to grab the value of the `content` field from the data that came from the previous Google Docs node and use it as the body of the response.\n\nThis completes the core logic of the workflow.

It's a direct, sequential flow, perfectly meeting all the requirements.\n\nOne last detail, the prompt also mentioned applying specific tags: \"Day4, PromptEngineer, Files, Onboarding.\" These tags would be set in the workflow's general settings to help with organization and searchability within n8n.

The core requirement here is to listen for a webhook, grab some content from a Google Doc, and then send that content back as a response to the original webhook.\n\nFirst things first, we need a way to *receive* the trigger. The prompt explicitly says the workflow is \"triggered by a webhook.\" So, my immediate thought is, \"I need a Webhook node.\" This will be the very first node in our workflow, acting as the entry point.\n\nLooking at the JSON, it confirms this: there's a node named \"Webhook\" of `type: n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion: 2`. This is perfect. When configuring it, I'd set up a unique `path` where the webhook will listen. The `responseMode` is crucial here. Since we're going to process something *after* receiving the webhook and then respond *later* in the workflow, I'd definitely choose `responseMode: responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node, \"Don't send an immediate response; wait for a 'Respond to Webhook' node down the line to handle it.\" This is exactly what we need for this scenario.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's the next step? The prompt says \"then retrieves the content from the Google Doc.\" So, logically, after the webhook fires, we need to interact with Google Docs. I'd look for a Google Docs node.\n\nThe JSON shows a \"Google Docs\" node, `type: n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion: 2`. This is exactly what we need. I'd connect the \"Webhook\" node's `main` output to this \"Google Docs\" node's `main` input. This ensures that once the webhook is received, the workflow proceeds directly to fetch the document.\n\nConfiguring the Google Docs node is straightforward for this task. The primary `operation` we need is `get`, because we want to retrieve the content of a document. We'd then provide the specific `documentURL` for the Google Doc we want to access. Of course, to make this work, it would need `credentials` set up \u2013 likely an OAuth2 connection to a Google account that has access to that document. The goal of this node is to output the document's content, which we'll use in the next step. I'd expect the output to contain a field with the actual text of the document.\n\nAlright, we've received the webhook, and we've successfully retrieved the document content. The final piece of the puzzle is to \"respond to the initial webhook with the retrieved document content as plain text.\" This clearly calls for a specific node designed to send responses back to the original webhook trigger.\n\nBased on that, I'd choose a \"Respond to Webhook\" node. The JSON confirms this choice with a node named \"Respond to Webhook\" of `type: n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion: 1.1`. I'd connect the \"Google Docs\" node's `main` output to this \"Respond to Webhook\" node's `main` input. This ensures that the response is only sent after the document content has been successfully fetched.\n\nFor the configuration of the \"Respond to Webhook\" node, the prompt specifies \"plain text.\" So, I'd set `respondWith` to `text`. And for the `responseBody`, we need to provide the content we got from the Google Docs node. I'd use an expression here to dynamically pull that data. Assuming the Google Docs node outputs the document's text in a field called `content` (which is a common pattern for text retrieval nodes), I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression takes the `content` property from the JSON data output by the previous node (the Google Docs node) and uses it as the text for the webhook response.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It's a clean, linear flow: receive trigger, fetch data, send response. Simple and effective for the stated goal." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that manually triggers, sets a sample email value 'email@domain2.com', and then uses a Function node to extract and output only the domain name from that email.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [240, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"\/\/ Take email and extract the domain name \\nvar email = ($json[\\\"email\\\"]);\\nvar name = email.substring(0, email.lastIndexOf(\\\"@\\\"));\\nvar domain = email.substring(email.lastIndexOf(\\\"@\\\") +1);\\n\\n\/\/To display the final domain name.

The user prompt mentions \"manually triggers,\" which immediately tells me I need a trigger node that can be activated on demand. Looking at the available options, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node is perfect for this. It's simple, straightforward, and exactly what's needed for a manual start. So, I'll place that down as my first node, named \"On clicking 'execute'\". Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the standard for this node type, and it doesn't really require any specific parameters to be configured beyond its default state, as its sole purpose is to initiate the workflow when I click \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n UI.\n\nNext, the prompt states we need to \"set a sample email value 'email@domain2.com'\". This means I need a way to introduce data into the workflow at a specific point. The `n8n-nodes-base.set` node is an excellent choice for this. It allows me to explicitly define new data fields or modify existing ones. I'll connect it directly after my \"On clicking 'execute'\" node, because the trigger's job is just to start, and then we immediately want to provide our sample email. I'll name this node \"Sample email\". For its configuration, I'll go into the parameters and under `values`, specify a `string` type value. I'll name this field `email` and set its `value` to `email@domain2.com`. This will ensure that the email string is available for subsequent nodes. A crucial setting here is `keepOnlySet: true`. By enabling this, I'm ensuring that only the data I explicitly define in this 'Set' node (which is our 'email' field) is passed along to the next node. This helps keep the data clean and avoids carrying over any unnecessary data that might have come from the trigger node (though in this case, the manual trigger doesn't output much). This node also uses `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow for the core logic: \"extract and output only the domain name from that email.\" This requires some form of data manipulation, specifically string processing. While some nodes might offer basic string operations, for anything more custom or complex, a `n8n-nodes-base.function` node is almost always the go-to solution. It allows me to write custom JavaScript code to process the incoming data exactly as needed. So, I'll connect this \"Extract domain name\" node directly from the \"Sample email\" node. The data from \"Sample email\" (containing our 'email' field) will now flow into this Function node.\n\nInside the Function node, I need to write the JavaScript. I'll access the incoming data, which will be available in the `$json` variable. So, to get the email, I'll write `var email = ($json[\"email\"]);`. This line retrieves the value of the 'email' field that was passed from the previous 'Set' node.\n\nNext, I need to isolate the domain. A common way to do this is to find the position of the \"@\" symbol. The `lastIndexOf(\"@\")` method is perfect because an email address should only have one \"@\" for the domain separation. I'm not interested in the name part, but sometimes it's useful to extract it, so I'll put in a line `var name = email.substring(0, email.lastIndexOf(\"@\"));` just in case, though it's not strictly required by the prompt. The important part is extracting the domain. I'll use `var domain = email.substring(email.lastIndexOf(\"@\") + 1);`. This takes everything *after* the \"@\" symbol.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"output only the domain name.\" The Function node expects an array of objects to be returned, with each object typically having a `json` property containing the data to be passed on. So, to output just the domain, I'll construct the return like this: `return [{ json: { domain } }]`. This creates an object with a `json` property, and inside that, a new field named `domain` (shorthand for `domain: domain`) holding our extracted value. This ensures that the next (or final) node in the workflow will receive an item containing only the extracted domain name. This Function node is also `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It's a simple, linear flow that demonstrates how to manually trigger, set a specific value, and then perform a custom transformation using a Function node." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a webhook at `\/test`.

The prompt explicitly says it \"starts with a webhook at `\/test`\". So, my very first node has to be a Webhook.\n\nI'll add a Webhook node. Looking at the JSON, this corresponds to node `94644433-fb9b-4532-81d2-d9673eb6e15e`, which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion` 1. This node is perfect for listening for incoming HTTP requests. I need to configure its path, which the prompt specifies as `\/test`. So, in the `parameters`, I'll set `path` to `\"test\"`. For the `responseMode`, it's important to set it to `\"responseNode\"`. This tells the webhook not to send an immediate default response, but instead to wait for a subsequent \"Respond to Webhook\" node later in the workflow to handle the actual HTTP response. This is crucial for our goal of sending back XML with a custom header.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow should \"set two values (a number and a string)\". For this, a \"Set\" node is ideal. It allows me to define specific values and pass them along as new data in the workflow. I'll connect this Set node directly from the Webhook node's `main` output.\n\nThis Set node in the JSON is `88ba5ee7-4788-452f-9d64-bf192fe90e5f`, type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, `typeVersion` 1. Inside its `parameters`, under `values`, I need to define a number and a string. For the number, I'll add an entry with `name: \"number\"` and `value: 1`. For the string, I'll add another entry with `name: \"string\"` and `value: \"my text\"`. The `keepOnlySet` option is set to `true` here, which is a good practice. It means that the data coming *into* this node (from the webhook) will be discarded, and only the newly set `number` and `string` values will be passed on. This keeps the data clean and focused for the next steps.\n\nThe prompt then requires me to \"convert this data into XML\". So, from the Set node, I'll connect to an XML node. This node is designed specifically for converting data formats, and it supports converting JSON to XML, which is exactly what we need since the Set node is outputting data in a JSON-like structure.\n\nThe XML node in the JSON is `302c87d4-2c92-40a0-9a77-cef4ddd7db6d`, type `n8n-nodes-base.xml`, `typeVersion` 1. Looking at its `parameters`, the `mode` is correctly set to `\"jsonToxml\"`. This means it will take the JSON input (our number and string) and transform it into an XML string. There are no special `options` configured, which is fine for a basic conversion.\n\nFinally, the workflow needs to \"respond to the webhook with the XML output and `Content-Type: application\/xml` header.\" This clearly calls for a \"Respond to Webhook\" node. I'll connect this node from the XML node's `main` output.\n\nThe Respond to Webhook node in the JSON is `6cda9dc3-0fdd-4f3a-aecf-0ff0efd28c33`, type `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, `typeVersion` 1. First, I need to specify what content to respond with. Since the XML node outputs a string, `respondWith` should be set to `\"text\"`. Then, for the `responseBody`, I'll use an expression to reference the output of the previous XML node. The XML node's output will typically be found under `$json.data` if it's the primary output from that node, so `={{ $json.data }}` is the correct expression to pull that generated XML string.\n\nCrucially, for the headers, under `options.responseHeaders.entries`, I need to add an entry for `Content-Type`. So, I'll set `name` to `\"content-type\"` (case-insensitive for HTTP headers, but usually lowercase is preferred) and `value` to `\"application\/xml\"`. This will ensure that when the client receives the response, it correctly interprets the body as XML.

A Telegram echo bot means it needs to *react* to something happening on Telegram. So, the very first piece of the puzzle has to be a trigger.\n\nLooking at the n8n nodes available, a \"Telegram Trigger\" node immediately comes to mind. It's specifically designed to listen for events from Telegram. So, I'll start by pulling that node onto the canvas.\n\nThis node is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.telegramTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1.2`. It's perfect for initiating the workflow when a new message arrives.\n\nNow, how do I configure this trigger? The prompt says it should trigger on \"incoming messages\". So, in the `parameters` for this node, I'd need to specify what kind of `updates` it should listen for. The `updates` array in the JSON shows `[\"message\"]`. This is exactly what I need. It ensures the workflow only kicks off when a new message is sent to the bot, ignoring other types of updates like channel posts or edited messages, which is great for an echo bot. There are no `additionalFields` specified, which is fine for a basic message trigger.\n\nCrucially, this `Telegram Trigger` node needs credentials to connect to the Telegram API. It's linked to a `telegramApi` credential, which is where the bot's token would be securely stored and linked. This is how n8n authenticates with Telegram to receive these messages.\n\nAlright, so now we have our trigger. When a message comes in, this node will activate and pass the message data along. What's the next step? The goal is to \"send a reply back to the same chat, prepending 'Eco: ' to the original message text.\" This means we need an action node that can send messages *to* Telegram.\n\nThe natural choice here is the generic \"Telegram\" node. It's the workhorse for sending messages, photos, documents, and interacting with Telegram in various ways. So, I'll add a `Telegram` node to the canvas.\n\nThis node is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.telegram` with `typeVersion: 1.2`. It's the right tool for sending the echo message.\n\nNow, how do I connect these two nodes and configure the second one? The `Telegram Trigger`'s job is to output the details of the incoming message. The `Telegram` action node needs that information to know *where* to send the reply and *what* to reply with.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `main` output of the `Telegram Trigger` to the `main` input of the `Telegram` node. The `connections` object in the JSON confirms this: `{\"Telegram Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This ensures the data flows directly from the trigger to the sender.\n\nNow for the `Telegram` (sender) node's configuration.\n\nFirst, \"send a reply back to the same chat.\" How do I know which chat to reply to? The data coming from the `Telegram Trigger` node will contain all the details of the incoming message, including the `chat.id` of the conversation it originated from. So, for the `chatId` parameter, I'll use an expression to dynamically pull this information. The JSON shows `chatId: \"={{ $json.message.chat.id }}\"`. This is perfect. `$json` refers to the data coming from the previous node, and `message.chat.id` is the path to the chat ID within that data structure. This guarantees the echo goes back to the original sender.\n\nNext, \"prepending 'Eco: ' to the original message text.\" Similar to the `chatId`, the original message text will be available in the incoming data from the trigger. It's typically found at `message.text`. So, for the `text` parameter of the Telegram sender node, I need another expression. The JSON has `text: \"=Eco: {{ $json.message.text }}\"`. This is exactly what's required. It's a templated string that combines the literal \"Eco: \" with the dynamic `message.text` from the incoming message.\n\nThere's also an `additionalFields` parameter with `appendAttribution: false`. This is a nice touch for a clean bot. By default, n8n might add a small \"Sent via n8n\" attribution to messages. For a simple echo bot, turning this off makes the reply feel more seamless from the bot itself.\n\nFinally, just like the trigger, this `Telegram` node also needs credentials to send messages. It also uses the same `telegramApi` credential, which makes sense as it's operating on behalf of the same Telegram bot.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow is now complete. A message comes in, the trigger catches it, extracts the chat ID and message text, and then the Telegram sender node uses that information to send the modified message back to the original chat.

The user wants to generate an n8n workflow, and they've given me a clear starting point: a manual trigger, leading into a Trello action. This is pretty straightforward, so I'll tackle it step by step.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly states it should start with \"a manual trigger at [250, 300]\". This makes perfect sense; for an ad-hoc action like creating a Trello card on demand, a manual trigger is the most suitable choice. It allows the user to initiate the workflow whenever they need it, directly from the n8n interface.\n\nSo, I'll add the first node. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. I'll place it exactly where specified, at `[250, 300]`. The `typeVersion` for this node is `1`, which is the standard and works just fine for basic manual execution. There aren't any specific parameters to configure for a manual trigger itself beyond its basic functionality, so I'll leave the `parameters` object empty. It's just there to kick things off.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt states it should be \"connected to a Trello node at [450, 300] that creates a card named 'Hello' with the description 'Here are some details.'\" This gives me the exact next step and the core action.\n\nSo, the next node I need is a Trello node. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.trello`. I'll position it at `[450, 300]`, as instructed. This node is perfect because it's designed to interact directly with the Trello API, allowing us to perform operations like creating cards, updating boards, etc. The `typeVersion` for this Trello node is also `1`, which aligns with the expected functionality for creating a card.\n\nNow for the configuration of this Trello node. The user specifically wants to \"create a card named 'Hello' with the description 'Here are some details.'\"\nWithin the Trello node's `parameters` block, I'll set:\n* `name`: This corresponds directly to the card's name, so I'll set it to `\"Hello\"`.\n* `description`: This will hold the card's description, so I'll put `\"Here are some details\"` here.\n* The `listId` field is left empty in the JSON, which means the user would need to select a specific list on their Trello board where this card should be created. This is crucial for the node to function correctly in a real scenario, but for the design, leaving it blank means it's a required configuration step for the user.\n* `additionalFields`: This object is empty, indicating no other specific Trello card fields like labels, members, or due dates are being set in this particular workflow. It keeps the card creation simple, as requested.\n\nFinally, every Trello node needs authentication. The `credentials` object shows `trelloApi: \"\"`. This is where the user would provide their Trello API key and token to allow n8n to connect to their Trello account. Without valid credentials, the node wouldn't be able to create the card.\n\nOnce the Trello node is configured, I need to connect it to the manual trigger. This is straightforward: the output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node needs to feed into the \"Trello\" node. The `connections` object specifies this clearly: `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Trello\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the main output of the manual trigger will go into the main input of the Trello node. This is the standard way to pass execution flow and any potential data (though none is really passed from the manual trigger here, just the signal to execute) from one node to the next.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The manual trigger starts, and upon execution, it tells the Trello node to create a card with the specified name and description on a Trello list (which would be chosen by the user).

The prompt specifies \"spreadsheet.xls\", so I'll set that value right there. This tells the node exactly which file to go fetch.\n* **Data Output:** This node will output the entire content of \"spreadsheet.xls\" as binary data, making it available for the next step.\n\nNow that I have the raw binary data of the spreadsheet, it's just a blob of data. I can't really do anything useful with it in that state. The next logical step is to parse it and turn it into structured data that n8n can easily work with, like a collection of JSON objects. The prompt explicitly mentions processing it with a \"Spreadsheet File node,\" which is exactly what I need.\n\nSo, I'll connect the output of the **Read Binary File** node to a **Spreadsheet File** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node is designed to take spreadsheet data (like the binary content from our previous node) and parse it into a more usable format, typically an array of JSON objects where each object represents a row and the keys are the column headers. It handles various spreadsheet formats, including XLS.\n* **Connection:** I'll take the `main` output from the \"Read Binary File\" node and connect it to the `main` input of this \"Spreadsheet File\" node. This ensures the binary file content is passed directly for parsing.\n* **Configuration:** Looking at the JSON, its `parameters` are empty `{}`. This is typical when the node expects its input data to come from a previous node. It will automatically detect the spreadsheet format from the incoming binary data and parse it without needing explicit configuration for the file type or sheet name, assuming default behavior (e.g., first sheet).\n* **Data Output:** After execution, this node will transform the spreadsheet rows into individual n8n items, each containing the data for a row, usually with column names as keys. For example, if the spreadsheet had \"name\" and \"ean\" columns, each item would look something like `{ \"name\": \"Product A\", \"ean\": \"12345\" }`.\n\nFinally, with the spreadsheet data now structured into easy-to-handle JSON items, the last step is to get this information into our PostgreSQL database. The prompt clearly states inserting into \"product\" table, mapping \"name,ean\" columns, and using a \"postgres\" credential.\n\nSo, I'll connect the output of the **Spreadsheet File** node to a **Postgres** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.postgres`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This is the dedicated node for interacting with PostgreSQL databases. It can perform various operations like inserting, updating, querying, etc. In our case, we need to insert data.\n* **Connection:** I'll connect the `main` output of the \"Spreadsheet File\" node to the `main` input of this \"Postgres\" node. This will pass all the parsed spreadsheet items (rows) to the Postgres node for insertion.\n* **Configuration:**\n * `table`: The prompt specifies inserting into the \"product\" table, so I'll set this parameter to `\"product\"`.\n * `columns`: The prompt says to map \"name,ean\" columns. This parameter is crucial because it tells the Postgres node which fields from the incoming n8n items (derived from the spreadsheet) should map to which columns in the database table. So, I'll set this to `\"name,ean\"`. This means the values from the 'name' field in the incoming items will go into the 'name' column in the `product` table, and similarly for 'ean'.\n * `credentials`: The prompt explicitly mentions using the \"postgres\" credential. So, under `credentials`, I'll specify `{\"postgres\": \"postgres\"}`. This means the node will look up and use the connection details (like host, database name, username, password) stored securely under the credential name \"postgres\" within n8n. I wouldn't specify the actual sensitive values here, just the credential name.\n* **Operation:** By default, when a Postgres node receives incoming items with `table` and `columns` configured, it typically performs an \"insert\" operation, adding each incoming item as a new row into the specified table.\n\nThis sequence of nodes, their connections, and their specific configurations directly addresses all requirements of the prompt, creating a robust workflow for reading an XLS file, processing it, and inserting it into PostgreSQL." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a Manual Trigger node.

The prompt asks for a specific sequence: a Manual Trigger, followed by a disabled Code node with errors, which then connects to an enabled Code node. Plus, we need to ensure the workflow has specific tags.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point. Looking at the requirements, a \"Manual Trigger\" is explicitly requested. This is a very common and straightforward way to initiate a workflow, perfect for when you want to run it on demand, perhaps for testing or a one-off execution. So, I'd definitely grab an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. The `typeVersion` for this is `1`, which is standard for current basic nodes. I'd place it on the canvas, perhaps somewhere central like `[460, 460]` so there's room for subsequent nodes. I'll just call it \"On clicking 'execute'\" as it's the default and perfectly descriptive for a manual trigger. It doesn't require any specific parameters to be configured beyond its default state, as its purpose is simply to start the execution flow when manually triggered.\n\nNext, the prompt specifies connecting this Manual Trigger to a *disabled* Code node named 'Error', which should contain intentional JavaScript errors. A `Code` node, which has a `type` of `n8n-nodes-base.code` and typically `typeVersion 1`, is the right choice here because it allows us to execute custom JavaScript. This is exactly what we need to introduce intentional errors. I'll drag out a new Code node. For its name, \"Error\" is given, so I'll set that.\n\nNow, for the core configuration of this \"Error\" node: it needs to be *disabled*. There's a `disabled` property in the node's configuration, which I'll set to `true`. This is crucial because it means that even if the workflow runs, this node will be skipped during execution. It's a neat way to include potentially problematic code or steps that you don't want active right now, but might want to enable later.\n\nInside the Code node, I need to add some JavaScript that will cause an error. A simple way to do this is to reference an undefined variable or call a non-existent function. The provided JSON uses `error` directly within the loop, which will definitely throw a `ReferenceError` because `error` is not defined in that scope. So, the `jsCode` for this \"Error\" node will look like:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n error \/\/ This line will cause an error\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nEven though the node is disabled, it's good practice to set up the code as specified. I'll position this node to the right of the Manual Trigger, maybe at `[680, 460]`.\n\nNow, for the connection: the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (Manual Trigger) node needs to connect its `main` output to the `main` input of the \"Error\" node. This establishes the flow: when the trigger fires, it tries to pass data to the \"Error\" node. Since \"Error\" is disabled, it will effectively be skipped, and data will pass *through* it to its next connected node.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that the disabled 'Error' node should connect to an *enabled* Code node named 'Code'. So, I'll add another `n8n-nodes-base.code` node, again `typeVersion 1`. I'll name this one \"Code\" as requested. This node should be enabled, which is the default state for any new node, so I don't need to explicitly set `disabled: false`.\n\nFor its `jsCode`, the JSON shows a standard loop to add a `myNewField`, but without the `error` line:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nThis is a good, functional piece of code that demonstrates how to manipulate data passing through the workflow. I'll position this \"Code\" node to the right of the \"Error\" node, perhaps at `[900, 460]`.\n\nThe connection for this one is from the `main` output of the \"Error\" node to the `main` input of this new \"Code\" node. This ensures that even though the \"Error\" node is disabled, the execution flow continues from the Manual Trigger, effectively skipping \"Error\" and directly activating \"Code\".\n\nThe last part of the prompt is about workflow-level tags: `some-tag-1` and `some-tag-2`. Tags are metadata that help organize and filter workflows within n8n. These are added at the workflow's root level, not within individual nodes. So, I'd go into the workflow settings and add these two tags. They're just simple text labels, so no complex configuration is needed beyond their names. This helps with discoverability and categorization later on.\n\nAnd that completes the structure and configuration as requested. The Manual Trigger starts it, the disabled Error node is in place but bypassed, and the enabled Code node will perform its operation. All tags are applied." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that uses an 'Error Trigger' node to catch workflow errors.

The goal here is to set up a robust error handling system that sends out an email when any workflow fails.\n\nFirst things first, the core requirement is to \"catch workflow errors\". In n8n, there's a specific node designed for exactly this purpose: the 'Error Trigger' node. It's not a regular trigger that starts a workflow based on a schedule or an incoming webhook; instead, it's a special kind of trigger that activates when another workflow running on the same n8n instance encounters an unhandled error. So, this is definitely the first node I'll reach for.\n\nI'd place an 'Error Trigger' node on the canvas. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.errorTrigger`. For its `typeVersion`, the JSON shows `1`, which is the standard and perfectly suitable for its function of listening for global errors. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters in itself; its job is simply to listen silently until an error occurs. When an error *does* occur, this node will be triggered, and it will output data containing all the juicy details about that error.\n\nNow that we have a way to *catch* the error, the next step, according to the prompt, is to send an email. Specifically, it mentions using 'Mailgun'. So, naturally, the very next node in the workflow will be a 'Mailgun' node.\n\nI'll connect the 'Error Trigger' node's `main` output to the 'Mailgun' node's `main` input. This ensures that as soon as the 'Error Trigger' catches an error and outputs its data, that data immediately flows into the 'Mailgun' node for processing. The Mailgun node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.mailgun`, and its `typeVersion` is also `1`, which is standard and sufficient for sending emails.\n\nNow comes the configuration of the 'Mailgun' node, which is where we'll leverage the data provided by the 'Error Trigger'.\n\nThe prompt asks for the error message, stack trace, and workflow name to be included in the email.\nLet's tackle the email content first, specifically the `text` parameter (the body of the email).\nI'll set up an expression for the `text` field. I know that the 'Error Trigger' node outputs data under `$node[\"Error Trigger\"].data`. Within this data, there's an `execution` object, and within `execution`, there's an `error` object. The `error` object contains both the `message` and the `stack`.\nSo, for the error message, I'll use: `{{$node[\"Error Trigger\"].data[\"execution\"][\"error\"][\"message\"]}}`.\nAnd for the stack trace, I'll use: `{{$node[\"Error Trigger\"].data[\"execution\"][\"error\"][\"stack\"]}}`.\nI'll also add some static text and newline characters (`\\n`) for readability to make sure the email is nicely formatted, like \"Error:\" before the message and \"Stack Trace:\" before the stack. So the whole `text` parameter will look like: `=Error: {{$node[\"Error Trigger\"].data[\"execution\"][\"error\"][\"message\"]}}\\n\\nStack Trace:\\n{{$node[\"Error Trigger\"].data[\"execution\"][\"error\"][\"stack\"]}}`. This provides a clear and detailed email body.\n\nNext, for the `subject` of the email. The prompt specifies including the workflow name. The 'Error Trigger' node also provides information about the workflow itself. It has a `workflow` object within its output, and inside that, a `name` property.\nSo, for the subject, I'll use an expression like: `=Workflow Error: {{$node[\"Error Trigger\"].data[\"workflow\"][\"name\"]}}`. This way, the recipient immediately knows which workflow failed just by looking at the email subject line, which is super helpful for triage.\n\nFinally, there are the `toEmail` and `fromEmail` parameters. These are crucial for sending any email. I wouldn't put specific values in a generic template, but I'd note that these fields must be populated with the actual recipient email address(es) and a valid sender email address (often linked to your Mailgun domain) for the workflow to function correctly.\n\nAnd last but not least, the 'Mailgun' node needs credentials to connect to the Mailgun API. The JSON shows `{\"mailgunApi\": \"\"}` under `credentials`. This signifies that a Mailgun API credential needs to be selected and linked here. This is where you'd configure your API key to allow n8n to send emails through your Mailgun account. Without this, the node wouldn't be able to authenticate and send anything.\n\nAnd that completes the setup. An 'Error Trigger' listening for errors, flowing into a 'Mailgun' node that intelligently extracts error details and sends out a formatted email." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON featuring a 'When clicking Test workflow' manual trigger, sequentially connected to 'Edit Fields' and 'Edit Fields1' set nodes.

The first thing I always do is set up the foundational structure, which includes assigning a unique identifier for this specific workflow instance. So, I'd kick things off by setting the `meta` information, specifically the `instanceId`, to `15bbf37b6a515ccc2f534cabcd8bd171ca33583ff7744b1e9420e5ce68e615bb`. This ensures our workflow has its own distinct identity within the system.\n\nNow, for the actual workflow logic. The prompt clearly states we need a \"When clicking Test workflow\" manual trigger. This is the absolute starting point for any workflow that needs to be initiated manually, typically during development or for ad-hoc testing. So, I'll add the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. I'll give it the name \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" as specified. It's a `typeVersion` 1 node, and its position will be `[280, 320]` on the canvas. This node is perfect because it literally does nothing until a user clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button, providing a simple way to kick off the process. No specific parameters are needed for this basic manual trigger, so its `parameters` object will be empty.\n\nNext, the prompt indicates that this trigger should be sequentially connected to an \"Edit Fields\" node. Looking at the JSON, this node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion` 3.2. The `Set` node is incredibly useful in n8n; its primary purpose is to add, rename, or remove fields from the incoming data items. Even though the parameters in the JSON show an empty `options` object, in a real-world scenario, this is where you'd define what data you want to create or manipulate. Perhaps we'd be adding a new property like `status: \"processing\"` or modifying an existing one. For this design, we're just setting it up as an empty `Set` node named \"Edit Fields\", positioned at `[500, 320]`. I'll draw a `main` connection from our \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node to this \"Edit Fields\" node. This ensures that when the workflow is triggered, the data (an empty item in this case, as the manual trigger doesn't output anything by default) flows directly into the \"Edit Fields\" node for potential manipulation.\n\nFollowing \"Edit Fields\", the workflow needs another node, \"Edit Fields1\", also sequentially connected. Again, the JSON shows this as an `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, `typeVersion` 3.2. It's named \"Edit Fields1\", indicating it might be a subsequent step in data preparation or transformation. It too has an empty `parameters.options` object, meaning it's set up without any specific field modifications at this moment, but it's ready for future configuration. I'll place it at `[720, 320]`. I'll then connect the `main` output of \"Edit Fields\" to the `main` input of \"Edit Fields1\". This forms a clear, linear progression: trigger, then the first data manipulation step, then a second data manipulation step. This sequential flow is a very common pattern in workflow design.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies two unconnected nodes: \"Unknown node 1\" and \"Unknown node 2\". These are interesting because their types, `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist` and `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither`, clearly tell us they're not standard n8n nodes. They could represent custom nodes or placeholders for future development, or perhaps nodes that would only exist in a very specific, extended n8n environment. Regardless, as per the requirements, I need to include them exactly as specified.\n\nFirst, \"Unknown node 1\": I'll add a node with the name \"Unknown node 1\", giving it the exact type `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist` and `typeVersion` 1. It will sit at position `[400, 500]`. It has no parameters defined.\n\nAnd then, \"Unknown node 2\": I'll add this one next, named \"Unknown node 2\", with the type `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither` and `typeVersion` 1. Its position will be `[600, 500]`. Like its counterpart, it has no specific parameters. Since they are explicitly stated as \"unconnected,\" I will ensure no connections are made to or from these two nodes. They simply exist on the canvas, perhaps waiting to be integrated into a different flow or as markers for future functionality." } { "prompt": "Create an active n8n workflow named \"Cron to Update OpenDays of SNID\" that triggers daily at 06:30 AM.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to create a workflow that runs on a schedule and then executes a specific SQL query against an MSSQL database.\n\nFirst things first, I always like to establish the overall workflow properties right away. The prompt specifies the workflow should be named \"Cron to Update OpenDays of SNID\" and that it needs to be active. So, I'd make sure the `name` field is set to \"Cron to Update OpenDays of SNID\" and `active` is set to `true`. This ensures the workflow is identifiable and ready to run once saved. Looking at the provided JSON, these top-level properties are indeed correctly configured.\n\nNow, let's think about the core logic. Every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt says this workflow \"triggers daily at 06:30 AM.\" This immediately tells me we need a node that can handle scheduled executions. The perfect node for this in n8n is the \"Schedule Trigger\" node.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a **Schedule Trigger** node.\n* Its `type` would be `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1.1`. This version is pretty standard for schedule triggers and provides all the necessary scheduling options.\n* I'd give it a descriptive name, like \"Schedule Trigger\", which is what's used in the JSON.\n* Now, for its configuration, the crucial part is setting up that daily 06:30 AM schedule. Inside its `parameters`, specifically within the `rule` property, we'll use a cron expression. Cron expressions offer a precise way to define schedules.\n * I'd set the `field` to `cronExpression`.\n * And the `expression` itself would be `\"30 6 * * *\"`. Let's break that down: the `30` means the 30th minute past the hour, the `6` means the 6th hour (which is 06 AM), and the three asterisks `* * *` mean \"every day of the month,\" \"every month,\" and \"every day of the week.\" This perfectly nails the \"daily at 06:30 AM\" requirement.\n* This node, once activated, will effectively \"wake up\" the workflow at the specified time, sending an empty data item downstream to kick off the next steps.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered by the schedule, what's next? The prompt states it should \"execute the SQL query `UPDATE Site_Notices SET Open_Days = dbo.CountWorkdays(Created, GETDATE())` against the 'Cairnmead MSSQL' database credentials.\" This clearly indicates we need a node capable of interacting with a Microsoft SQL Server database and executing a query.\n\nSo, the next logical step is to add a **Microsoft SQL** node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.microsoftSql`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is specifically designed for SQL Server interactions, which is exactly what we need.\n* I'd name it something clear like \"Microsoft SQL\", as seen in the JSON.\n* Now, for the critical configuration of this node. Firstly, it needs to know which database to connect to. This is handled via `credentials`. The prompt explicitly mentions \"Cairnmead MSSQL\" database credentials. So, I would link the `microsoftSql` credential property to the pre-configured credentials that represent our \"Cairnmead MSSQL\" connection. This ensures the workflow has the necessary authentication to access the database.\n* Next, within its `parameters`, we need to define the operation. Since we're running an `UPDATE` statement, the `operation` should be set to `executeQuery`. This operation allows us to send a custom SQL query to the database, which is exactly what an `UPDATE` statement is.\n* Finally, the actual SQL query itself needs to be provided. The `query` parameter is where I would paste the exact SQL from the prompt: `\"UPDATE Site_Notices\\nSET Open_Days = dbo.CountWorkdays(Created, GETDATE())\"`. This is the core action of the workflow, updating the `Open_Days` column in the `Site_Notices` table using a custom function `dbo.CountWorkdays` and the current date.\n\nNow, for the connections:\n* The \"Schedule Trigger\" node needs to tell the \"Microsoft SQL\" node when to run. So, I would draw a connection from the \"Schedule Trigger\" node's `main` output to the \"Microsoft SQL\" node's `main` input. This establishes a simple, linear flow: when the schedule hits, the SQL query is executed. There's no complex data transformation or routing needed here; it's a straightforward execution chain.\n\nThat pretty much covers all the requirements. The workflow is active, named correctly, triggers precisely as requested, and executes the specified SQL query against the correct database credentials. It's a clean and efficient workflow for this specific task." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

The user prompt is quite clear: \"Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger. This should then read the binary file located at `\/data\/picture.jpg`.\"\n\nSo, the very first thing that jumps out is the need for a \"manual trigger.\" In n8n, whenever we want to kick off a workflow on demand, or simply for testing and development purposes without needing an external event, the `Manual Trigger` node is the perfect fit.\n\nI'd start by dragging out the `Manual Trigger` node onto the canvas. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is confirmed as `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is really straightforward; it doesn't typically require any specific parameters to function, as its sole purpose is to start the workflow when the \"Execute Workflow\" button is clicked. The `parameters` field in the JSON is empty, `{}`, which aligns perfectly with this. I'd position it somewhere central, maybe around `[270, 320]` as indicated in the JSON, to give myself space for subsequent nodes.\n\nOnce the workflow can be manually triggered, the next requirement is to \"read the binary file located at `\/data\/picture.jpg`.\" This immediately tells me I'm going to need a node that can interact with the file system and specifically handle binary data. n8n has a dedicated node for this: the `Read Binary File` node.\n\nSo, I'd bring in the `Read Binary File` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. Now, how does this connect? It needs to run *after* the manual trigger. So, I'd draw a 'main' connection from the `Manual Trigger` node to this `Read Binary File` node. This means that once the manual trigger fires, it will pass control to the `Read Binary File` node to perform its operation. The JSON confirms this connection: `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Read Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This ensures the data flow is sequential and correct.\n\nThe most critical part of configuring this `Read Binary File` node is specifying *which* file to read. The user prompt explicitly states the path: `\/data\/picture.jpg`. So, I would go into the parameters of the `Read Binary File` node and set the `filePath` parameter to `\/data\/picture.jpg`. The JSON reflects this configuration accurately: `\"parameters\": {\"filePath\": \"\/data\/picture.jpg\"}`. This is exactly what's needed for the node to know where to look for the image file. I'd place this node to the right of the `Manual Trigger`, maybe at `[470, 320]`, keeping a logical flow from left to right.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it for this particular workflow. It's a very simple, two-node structure that directly addresses both parts of the user's request: a manual start and then reading a specific binary file. No further processing or output is requested, so these two nodes suffice." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Manual wait set' that starts with a manual trigger, waits for 2 seconds, and then proceeds to a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Manual wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [900, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Manual\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1120, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Manual\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow based on the requirements. The user wants a workflow named \"Manual wait set\" that begins with a manual trigger, pauses for a bit, and then moves on to a Set node.\n\nFirst, I always look at the starting point. The prompt clearly states it \"starts with a manual trigger.\" So, that's the very first node I'll need to drop onto the canvas.\n\nI'll choose the **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to kick off a workflow execution when I manually click \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n UI. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters for this basic use case; it just sits there waiting to be triggered. It's truly the simplest way to initiate a workflow for testing or specific one-off runs. I'll give it the default name \"Manual,\" which is clear enough for its function.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow \"waits for 2 seconds.\" So, right after the manual trigger, I'll need a node that can introduce a delay. The ideal candidate for this is the **Wait** node.\n\nI'll connect the output of my \"Manual\" node to the input of this new \"Wait\" node. This ensures that once the workflow is manually triggered, the execution flow proceeds directly to the waiting period. The Wait node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.wait`, and it's also `typeVersion: 1`. Now, for its configuration, the requirement is \"2 seconds.\" So, I'll configure its parameters. I need to specify the `amount` as `2` and the `unit` as `seconds`. This is crucial for making sure the workflow pauses for the exact duration requested. It's a straightforward node but very effective for pacing or delaying operations. I'll name this node \"Wait\" to keep it descriptive.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that after waiting, the workflow \"proceeds to a Set node.\" So, the next logical step is to add a **Set** node and connect it.\n\nI'll connect the output of the \"Wait\" node to the input of this new \"Set\" node. This means once the 2-second wait is over, the workflow will automatically flow into the Set node. The Set node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and it's `typeVersion: 1`. In this particular scenario, the prompt doesn't specify any data to be set or modified. The JSON shows `{\"options\": {}}` for its parameters, meaning it's added as a placeholder without any specific fields or values being added or changed. This is common when you want to establish a workflow structure and might add data manipulation logic later. For now, it just serves as the endpoint of this simple flow, or a starting point for further processing. I'll name it \"Set.\"\n\nSo, the flow will be: `Manual` Trigger -> `Wait` (2 seconds) -> `Set`. This fulfills all the requirements laid out in the prompt. The overall workflow itself will be named \"Manual wait set\" as specified." } { "prompt": "Generate an N8n workflow that manually triggers, converts JSON input to binary, and then writes a file named `standup-bot-config.json` to the path `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [240, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"jsonToBinary\", \"options\": {\"encoding\": \"utf8\", \"fileName\": \"standup-bot-config.json\"}}, \"name\": \"Move Binary Data\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [420, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Move Binary Data\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Move Binary Data\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's design this n8n workflow from the ground up, keeping in mind the user's request to manually trigger, convert JSON to binary, and then write a specific file to a specific path.\n\nFirst things first, the user wants the workflow to be \"manually triggered.\" This immediately tells me I need an entry point node that a user can explicitly initiate. The most suitable node for this is the Manual Trigger.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a node of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"`. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is standard for this kind of basic trigger. I'd place it at the beginning of my workflow canvas. This node is fantastic because it requires no complex setup; it simply provides a button that, when clicked, starts the workflow. Its `parameters` are empty because it doesn't need any specific configuration to do its job of initiating execution. This will be the very first step in our flow.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"converts JSON input to binary.\" This is a crucial step that needs to happen *after* the workflow is triggered but *before* the file is written. We need a node that can take structured JSON data (which we'll assume is present in the workflow item, perhaps manually added during testing, or generated by a previous, unmentioned node) and transform it into a raw binary format that a file system node can understand.\n\nLooking at the available nodes, the `Move Binary Data` node sounds like a good candidate for this conversion task. I'll add this node directly after the Manual Trigger. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is incredibly flexible for manipulating data types. To achieve the \"JSON to binary\" conversion, I'd configure its `parameters`. Specifically, the `mode` parameter needs to be set to `\"jsonToBinary\"`. This tells the node precisely what transformation to perform: take the JSON payload from the incoming workflow item and convert it into binary data.\n\nWithin the `options` of this `Move Binary Data` node, I'd also specify `encoding: \"utf8\"`. UTF-8 is a common and robust character encoding, ensuring that the JSON text is converted into bytes correctly without any character corruption. It's a sensible default for text-based data like JSON. I also see a `fileName: \"standup-bot-config.json\"` here. This is important metadata. While this node doesn't *write* the file yet, it attaches this logical filename to the binary data it's creating. This helps subsequent nodes that deal with binary data know what name to associate with this particular binary blob. So, the connection here would be from the `On clicking 'execute'` node's `main` output to this `Move Binary Data` node's `main` input.\n\nFinally, the user wants to \"writes a file named `standup-bot-config.json` to the path `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/`.\" Now that we have our data in the correct binary format, the next step is to actually save it to the file system.\n\nThe most appropriate node for this is the `Write Binary File` node. I'd place this node directly after the `Move Binary Data` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is specifically designed to take binary data (like what our `Move Binary Data` node just produced) and write it to a specified location on the file system. For its `parameters`, I'd configure the `fileName`. The prompt gives us the exact path and name: `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json`. This full path tells the node exactly where to create and save the file. The node will then use the binary data it receives from the `Move Binary Data` node and write it to that specific file location. The connection would be from the `Move Binary Data` node's `main` output to this `Write Binary File` node's `main` input, ensuring the binary data flows correctly to its final destination.\n\nThis sequence of nodes\u2014Manual Trigger -> JSON to Binary Conversion -> Write Binary File\u2014perfectly addresses all the requirements of the prompt, creating a clear and functional workflow." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

The request is quite specific: a manual trigger, then a 'Set' node to create an XML string in a field called 'body'.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. Looking at the prompt, it clearly states it \"starts with a manual trigger\". So, that's where I'd begin.\n\n### Node 1: When clicking \u2018Execute workflow\u2019\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version**: `1`\n\nOkay, so I'll drag and drop a \"Manual Trigger\" node onto the canvas. This is the simplest way to initiate a workflow directly from the n8n interface, which is perfect for testing or for a process that needs to be kicked off by a user manually. It doesn't require any incoming data; it simply generates an empty item to get the workflow going when you hit the 'Execute workflow' button. For this particular use case, where we're just defining data in the next step, a manual trigger is absolutely ideal. There's no complex configuration needed for this node, which keeps things straightforward.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt says, \"Subsequently, use a 'Set' node to define a field named 'body' containing an XML string\". This tells me exactly what node to add next and what its primary purpose will be.\n\n### Node 2: Edit Fields\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version**: `3.2`\n\nSo, I'll connect the output of the \"Manual Trigger\" node to the input of a new \"Set\" node. The \"Set\" node is incredibly versatile for manipulating data that flows through a workflow. It allows you to add new fields, modify existing ones, or even remove fields from the incoming data. In our case, we need to create a brand new field.\n\nLooking at the configuration for this \"Set\" node in the JSON, I see it's set up to achieve exactly what's requested:\n\n* Under \"Fields\", there's an entry for a new field.\n * The `name` of this field is `body`. This directly matches the requirement in the prompt.\n * The `stringValue` is where the actual XML content goes. This is crucial. It contains the `<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>` declaration, followed by a root element `<library>`. Inside the `library` element, there are multiple `<book>` entries. Each book then has child elements for `<title>`, `<author>`, `<publication_year>`, and `<isbn>`. This entire string literal is precisely the XML structure specified in the prompt: a library with multiple book entries, including title, author, publication year, and ISBN. The `stringValue` parameter is perfect for embedding static, multi-line strings like this XML.\n* The `options` are empty, meaning we're just adding this `body` field to the item that comes from the \"Manual Trigger\" node, without discarding any other fields (though in this case, the trigger item is initially empty anyway).\n\nThis setup ensures that when the workflow runs, the \"Manual Trigger\" initiates an item, and then the \"Set\" node takes that item and enriches it by adding the `body` field with the complete XML content. After this node executes, the workflow item will contain a single field named `body` holding the specified XML data. This fully addresses the prompt's requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then connects to a DebugHelper node configured to generate 100 random data items using '0' as the seed.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [780, 500]}, {\"parameters\": {\"category\": \"randomData\", \"randomDataSeed\": \"0\", \"randomDataCount\": 100}, \"name\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1000, 500]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get started on building this n8n workflow.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick off the workflow. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger,\" which is pretty straightforward. I'd reach for the `Manual Trigger` node for this. It's designed exactly for this purpose \u2013 to start a workflow execution when I manually click \"Execute Workflow\" or \"Test Workflow\" in the editor. Looking at the JSON, it confirms this choice with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. Its parameters are empty (`{}`), which is perfect because a manual trigger doesn't usually need any special configuration; its sole job is to initiate the flow. I'll place this node as the very first one, typically at the left of my canvas, as it's the entry point.\n\nNext, the prompt states that the workflow should \"then connect to a DebugHelper node configured to generate 100 random data items using '0' as the seed.\" So, my immediate thought is, \"I need a `DebugHelper` node.\" This node is incredibly useful for testing, debugging, and, as in this case, generating synthetic data without needing to connect to external services. The JSON confirms `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\"` with `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how do I configure this `DebugHelper` node to meet the requirements? The prompt specifies \"generate 100 random data items using '0' as the seed.\" I know the `DebugHelper` node has a few different modes or \"categories\" of operation. To generate random data, I'd set its `category` parameter. The JSON shows `category: \"randomData\"`, which is exactly what I'd choose. This tells the node to switch into its random data generation mode.\n\nThen, to get \"100 random data items,\" there's a `randomDataCount` parameter, which I would set to `100`. The JSON confirms this with `randomDataCount: 100`. And finally, to ensure the data is \"using '0' as the seed,\" I'd use the `randomDataSeed` parameter and set its value to `'0'`. The JSON aligns perfectly here too, showing `randomDataSeed: \"0\"`. This seed is crucial because it makes the \"random\" data reproducible; running the workflow multiple times with the same seed will always produce the exact same sequence of \"random\" data, which is super helpful for consistent testing.\n\nThe last piece is connecting these two nodes. The `Manual Trigger` needs to pass its execution flow to the `DebugHelper`. Typically, a trigger node's main output connects to the main input of the subsequent processing node. Looking at the `connections` section in the JSON, it shows ` \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This perfectly illustrates what I'd do: connect the `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` (named \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" in the JSON) to the `main` input of the `DebugHelper` node. This means that once the `Manual Trigger` fires, it will initiate the `DebugHelper` node, causing it to generate the specified 100 random data items. The `Manual Trigger` doesn't output any data in this scenario, it simply acts as a signal to start the next node. The `DebugHelper` will then generate and output the 100 data items on its own, which would then be visible in the workflow execution results." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that utilizes a manual trigger node to publish a message to AWS SNS. Configure the SNS node to send 'This is a test message' with the subject 'This is a test subject' to the topic 'n8n-rocks', using 'aws' credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"topic\": \"n8n-rocks\", \"message\": \"This is a test message\", \"subject\": \"This is a test subject\"}, \"name\": \"AWS SNS\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.awsSns\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AWS SNS\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start building this workflow from the ground up, thinking through each step as we go.\n\nThe very first thing I need to consider is how this workflow is going to be initiated. The prompt clearly states \"a manual trigger node.\" So, that's my starting point. I'll need a node that allows a user to explicitly kick off the workflow.\n\nFor that purpose, the `manualTrigger` node is perfect. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and looking at the JSON, it's set to `typeVersion: 1`. This node essentially acts as a \"start\" button for the workflow. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters itself, as its sole job is to initiate execution when clicked. So, I'll place that down, naming it something descriptive like \"On clicking 'execute'\" to reflect its purpose.\n\nNow that I have my trigger in place, I need to think about what happens *after* the workflow is triggered. The goal is to \"publish a message to AWS SNS.\" This immediately tells me I'll need an AWS SNS node. n8n has a dedicated node for interacting with AWS Simple Notification Service, which is exactly what I need here.\n\nSo, I'll add an `awsSns` node, which has the type `n8n-nodes-base.awsSns`. The JSON specifies `typeVersion: 1` for this node. I'll position it to the right of my manual trigger, as it will be the next step in the flow.\n\nNext, I need to connect these two nodes. The manual trigger needs to pass control to the AWS SNS node. So, the output of my \"On clicking 'execute'\" node will connect to the input of the \"AWS SNS\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, it tells the AWS SNS node to start its operation. It's a direct, main connection from the trigger's output to the SNS node's input.\n\nWith the nodes connected, the crucial part is configuring the AWS SNS node to do exactly what's required. The prompt specifies a few key pieces of information:\n* The message to send: \"This is a test message\"\n* The subject for the message: \"This is a test subject\"\n* The topic to publish to: \"n8n-rocks\"\n* The credentials to use: \"aws\"\n\nLooking at the node's parameters, I can see where these need to go.\nFirst, for the `topic`, I'll input `'n8n-rocks'`. This tells the SNS service which specific topic the message should be sent to.\nThen, for the `message` parameter, I'll put `'This is a test message'`. This is the actual content that will be delivered to subscribers of the topic.\nAnd for the `subject`, I'll configure it as `'This is a test subject'`. This provides a title or summary for the message, which can be useful for subscribers.\n\nFinally, and very importantly for any cloud service integration, are the credentials. The prompt mentions using `'aws'` credentials. In the `credentials` section of the node configuration, I'll link the appropriate AWS credential set. This is where you'd typically select or create a saved credential that contains the necessary access keys and secret keys to authenticate with your AWS account. The JSON shows `{\"aws\": \"aws\"}`, which implies a credential named 'aws' is configured in the n8n environment. Without these, the node wouldn't be able to connect to AWS.\n\nAnd that's it. The manual trigger starts the process, and then the AWS SNS node, configured with the correct topic, message, subject, and credentials, performs the requested action of publishing the message. The flow is straightforward and meets all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object for a workflow named \"PostOnboardingJSON new\" that is inactive. Include current timestamps, unique IDs (a random string `id` and a UUID `versionId`), `settings` with `executionOrder: 'v1'`, `triggerCount: 0`, and ensure `nodes`, `connections`, `pinData`, `tags` are empty, while `staticData` and `meta` are null.", "json": "{\"name\": \"PostOnboardingJSON new\", \"nodes\": [], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get started on building this workflow. From the user's prompt and the provided JSON, it's clear we're setting up a very foundational workflow structure \u2013 essentially, an empty canvas with all the necessary administrative details in place.\n\nThe first thing I'm going to consider is the overall identity and state of this workflow. Every workflow needs a name, and the prompt specifies \"PostOnboardingJSON new\". So, I'll definitely set the `name` field to that exact string. This is crucial for identification within the system.\n\nNext, the prompt states that this workflow should be \"inactive\". This is an important detail. It means that even if we were to add a trigger later, the workflow wouldn't automatically execute until someone explicitly activates it. So, I'm setting `active` to `false`. This gives us control over when it actually starts processing.\n\nNow, for timestamps. When a workflow is created, it's essential to record *when* that happened. So, I'll establish `createdAt` and `updatedAt` fields, both pointing to the current time. As the workflow evolves and changes are saved, the `updatedAt` field will automatically update, giving us an audit trail of modifications.\n\nEvery workflow also needs a unique identifier, and in this system, we typically have a couple of them. There's a short, random `id` for the workflow itself, which helps the system reference it efficiently. And then there's a `versionId`, which is a UUID. This is great for tracking specific iterations or instances, ensuring global uniqueness across different systems or backups. So, I'll make sure both of these are generated uniquely and assigned.\n\nMoving on to the `settings` object. The prompt explicitly mentions `executionOrder: 'v1'`. This is a core setting that dictates how nodes within the workflow are processed \u2013 generally, in a sequential manner. Even though we don't have any nodes right now, it's good practice to define this default. It's how the workflow engine will know to behave if we ever add processing steps.\n\nWe also have a `triggerCount: 0`. Since this is a brand new workflow and it's marked as inactive, it hasn't had a chance to be triggered yet. So, starting this counter at zero makes perfect sense. It will increment each time the workflow is successfully executed.\n\nNow, let's address the core components of the workflow itself. The prompt is very clear that `nodes`, `connections`, `pinData`, and `tags` should all be empty. This means:\n* `nodes: []`: This is the most significant part. We are designing a workflow that, at this moment, has no functional steps. It's literally an empty container, waiting for nodes to be added later.\n* `connections: {}`: With no nodes to connect, this object will naturally be empty. Connections define the flow of data between different nodes.\n* `pinData: {}`: This is usually related to the visual layout of nodes in the editor, storing information about how they're positioned or \"pinned.\" Since there are no nodes, there's no layout data to store yet.\n* `tags: []`: Tags are used for categorization and organization of workflows. The requirement is for them to be empty, so we're not assigning any categories at this initial stage.\n\nFinally, we have `staticData` and `meta`. These fields are often used for more advanced scenarios. `staticData` can hold persistent data that a workflow might need across executions or share between specific nodes. `meta` can contain arbitrary, often system-level or user-defined, metadata about the workflow itself. Since this is an empty, new workflow, there's no need for complex static data or additional metadata right now. Setting both `staticData` and `meta` to `null` is the appropriate default state for an uninitialized workflow.\n\nSo, in summary, we're creating the essential scaffolding for a workflow \u2013 its name, unique identifiers, timestamps, inactive status, and default execution settings \u2013 but intentionally leaving it devoid of any processing logic (nodes and connections) for now.

The user wants a workflow that's triggered by a webhook, fetches content from a Google Docs URL, and then uses that content to respond to the original webhook. It also needs some specific tags.\n\nSo, every n8n workflow starts with a trigger. In this case, the user explicitly states it should be \"triggered by a webhook at path 'ai-tools-in-remote-helpers-overview'\". This immediately tells me that my very first node must be a Webhook node.\n\nLet's add that.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **Type Version:** `2` (Using version 2 is usually a good idea as it's typically the latest and most stable, offering improved features or bug fixes over older versions.)\n\nNow, how to configure this Webhook node? The prompt gives us the exact path: `'ai-tools-in-remote-helpers-overview'`. So, I'll set the `path` parameter to that specific string. This is the endpoint that external systems will call to initiate this workflow.\n\nThe next crucial piece for the Webhook node is how it should handle the response. The prompt says \"respond to the webhook using the document's content,\" which implies we'll be doing some processing *after* the webhook is received, and then a *separate* node will send the actual response. Therefore, I need to set the `responseMode` parameter to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node not to respond immediately but to wait for a dedicated \"Respond to Webhook\" node later in the workflow to handle the reply. If I chose `onReceived`, the webhook would send an empty 200 OK immediately, which isn't what we want here.\n\nAlright, the trigger is set up. What's the very next logical step after the webhook is received? We need to \"retrieve content from a Google Docs URL.\" This clearly points to using a Google Docs node.\n\nSo, I'll connect the `main` output of my Webhook node to the `main` input of a new Google Docs node. This ensures that once the webhook successfully receives a request, the workflow execution immediately proceeds to try and fetch the document.\n\nNow, for configuring this Google Docs node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`\n* **Type Version:** `2` (Again, sticking with the latest version for consistency and potential improvements.)\n\nWhat operation do we need to perform? We're retrieving content, so the `operation` parameter should be set to `get`. This tells the node to fetch an existing document's details or content.\n\nTo fetch the content, the node needs to know *which* document. The prompt mentions a \"Google Docs URL.\" So, I would configure the `documentURL` parameter with the specific URL of the Google Docs document. This is where the actual link to the document would be placed by the user.\n\nThis node will also need credentials to access Google Docs. So, I would ensure that a Google Docs OAuth2 API credential is properly set up and selected for this node. This credential allows n8n to authenticate with Google and gain the necessary permissions to read the specified document. Without proper authentication, the node wouldn't be able to access the file.\n\nOkay, so now we've received the webhook and fetched the document content. The final piece of the puzzle, according to the prompt, is to \"then respond to the webhook using the document's content.\" This means we need to send the data we just retrieved back to whoever triggered the webhook. This is precisely what the `Respond to Webhook` node is for.\n\nSo, I'll connect the `main` output of the Google Docs node to the `main` input of a new `Respond to Webhook` node. This ensures that the response is only sent once the Google Docs node has successfully retrieved the content.\n\nLet's configure this `Respond to Webhook` node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`\n* **Type Version:** `1.1` (Version 1.1 is perfectly adequate for simply sending back text content, no need for more complex features that newer versions might offer here.)\n\nHow should it respond? We need to send the document's content. So, I'll set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`. This tells the webhook to send a plain text response.\n\nFor the `responseBody`, we need to dynamically insert the content that the Google Docs node outputted. Typically, when a Google Docs node `get`s a document, it puts the document's text content into a field named `content` in its output JSON. So, I'll use an expression for `responseBody`: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression accesses the `content` property from the JSON data passed from the previous node (the Google Docs node), effectively taking the retrieved document text and sending it as the webhook's response.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies certain tags: 'Onboarding', 'Files', 'Day1', and 'How To Work'. These are workflow-level metadata. So, when saving or updating the workflow, I would ensure these specific tags are added to the workflow's properties. This helps with organization, searchability, and categorization within the n8n interface.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It's a clean, linear flow from trigger to data retrieval to response." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a 'Manual Trigger' node and connects directly to a 'CircleCI' node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"vcs\": \"\", \"projectSlug\": \"\"}, \"name\": \"CircleCI\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.circleCi\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"CircleCI\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants a pretty straightforward setup: something that kicks off manually and then interacts with CircleCI. My primary goal is to build out this flow step by step, making sure it aligns with the provided JSON structure.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the request, it's explicitly stated to start with a 'Manual Trigger' node, and the JSON confirms this. So, that's where I'll begin.\n\nI'll add the **Manual Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is absolutely perfect for the job because the user wants to initiate the workflow themselves, simply by clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button within n8n. It's the most basic and direct way to get a workflow running on demand. I don't need to worry about external events or schedules; it's purely for manual execution. For configuration, this node is quite simple; it doesn't really have any specific parameters to set beyond its default behavior, as seen in the JSON's empty `parameters` object. It just acts as a switch. If there were a newer version of this node, say `typeVersion: 2`, it might introduce some minor options, perhaps for a custom display name or a pre-run check, but for a basic trigger, version 1 is entirely sufficient and does exactly what's needed.\n\nNow that I have my trigger, what's next? The user prompt also clearly specifies that it should connect directly to a 'CircleCI' node. This tells me exactly what the next action node needs to be. So, after the manual trigger fires, it should pass control to the CircleCI integration.\n\nSo, I'll add the **CircleCI** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.circleCi`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. Why this node? Well, it's the direct way to interact with the CircleCI API from within n8n. Whether I want to trigger a build, get build status, or manage projects, this node is designed specifically for that purpose. It streamlines the connection and interaction with CircleCI, so I don't have to deal with raw HTTP requests. If I were thinking about alternatives, I *could* potentially use an HTTP Request node to interact with the CircleCI API directly, but that would involve manually constructing URLs, headers, and body payloads, which is far more complex and error-prone than using a dedicated integration node. The `circleCi` node abstracts all that away, making it much easier to use.\n\nNow, for connecting these two nodes. The JSON shows `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"CircleCI\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This is a straightforward connection. The output of the 'Manual Trigger' node (which n8n internally often labels based on its name, here \"On clicking 'execute'\") will connect to the `main` input of the 'CircleCI' node. This means that when the 'Manual Trigger' is executed, it will simply pass on its execution flow to the 'CircleCI' node, effectively telling it \"go ahead and run.\" There's no complex data mapping needed here; it's just a simple forward of the execution signal.\n\nNext, I need to configure the CircleCI node. Looking at the JSON's `parameters` for the CircleCI node, I see `{\"vcs\": \"\", \"projectSlug\": \"\"}`. These are crucial.\nThe `vcs` parameter would specify the Version Control System that CircleCI uses for the project, such as \"github\" or \"bitbucket\". This tells the CircleCI API where to find the repository.\nThe `projectSlug` parameter is the unique identifier for the specific project within CircleCI that this node should interact with. It typically follows a format like `organization\/repository_name`. Both of these values would need to be precisely configured for the CircleCI node to know *which* project it should be working with. Without these, the node wouldn't know what to do.\n\nFinally, there's the `credentials` object: `{\"circleCiApi\": \"\"}`. This is where the authentication details for CircleCI would be stored. Typically, this would be an API token generated from CircleCI. n8n handles these credentials securely, storing them separately from the workflow definition itself. This `circleCiApi` reference means that I would need to set up a credential in n8n's credentials manager that holds the necessary API token. When the workflow runs, the 'CircleCI' node would then use these stored credentials to authenticate its requests to the CircleCI API. This keeps sensitive information out of the workflow JSON and allows for easier management and reuse across multiple workflows.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the entire workflow as per the JSON. It's a simple, direct trigger-and-action sequence. The 'Manual Trigger' starts it, passing control directly to the 'CircleCI' node, which then uses its configured parameters and credentials to perform whatever action is set up (though the JSON doesn't specify an operation, it typically defaults to something like triggering a build or getting project details if nothing else is chosen). The `typeVersion: 1` for the CircleCI node means it's using the initial capabilities provided by that node, which is usually sufficient for common operations like triggering builds or checking statuses. A later version might add more specific operations or improved error handling, but for a basic connection, it's perfectly fine." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a 'When chat message received' trigger. It should then sequentially use two 'Set' nodes: the first to output `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}` and the second to output `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"When chat message received\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [320, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_1\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_2\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [580, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_3\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_4\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, -380]}], \"connections\": {\"When chat message received\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Node 1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is clear: we need something that kicks off when a chat message comes in, and then does a couple of specific data manipulations.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the user's requirement, \"starts with a 'When chat message received' trigger,\" that's pretty straightforward. So, my initial thought is, naturally, to find a node that handles incoming chat messages.\n\nBased on the provided blueprint, the node chosen for this is of type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1.1`. This seems like the perfect fit because its name explicitly states \"When chat message received,\" directly addressing the prompt. It's a specialized trigger for chat interactions, likely part of an n8n integration with a chat platform or a language model interface. For its configuration, it probably has some options, which are currently empty `{}` in the blueprint, meaning it's likely set to a default mode or doesn't require specific input for this basic setup to receive any chat message. The `webhookId` is just an internal identifier for how n8n exposes this trigger, so I don't need to worry about setting that; n8n handles it automatically when the workflow is activated. This will be our initial entry point for any incoming chat message.\n\nNow, what's next? The prompt states, \"It should then sequentially use two 'Set' nodes.\" \"Sequentially\" is key here, meaning one after the other. The first 'Set' node needs to output `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`.\n\nSo, immediately following our chat trigger, I'll add a 'Set' node. Looking at the blueprint, this node is named \"Node 1\" and its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.4`. The 'Set' node is incredibly useful for creating or modifying data within a workflow, and it's perfect for injecting specific, predefined JSON objects, as required here.\n\nTo configure \"Node 1,\" I'd make sure its 'Mode' parameter is set to \"raw\" which allows us to directly input a JSON string. Then, in the `jsonOutput` parameter, I'd paste the exact JSON structure specified: `{\\n \"this_my_field_1\": \"value\",\\n \"this_my_field_2\": 1\\n}\\n`. This ensures that when this node executes, it will output a single item containing this exact JSON object. The connection from the \"When chat message received\" trigger to \"Node 1\" would be a simple `main` connection, passing the execution flow, and potentially any data from the chat message (though the 'Set' node will overwrite or add to it with its own defined output, depending on its internal 'Keep only set' or 'Merge' options, which aren't explicitly specified but default to merging).\n\nOkay, one 'Set' node down. The prompt then says, \"and the second to output `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`.\" This means another 'Set' node, and it needs to come *after* the first one.\n\nSo, I'll add a second 'Set' node, which the blueprint calls \"Node 2.\" Again, it's of `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.4`, which is consistent and makes sense for the task. It's the same type as the previous one because we're performing a similar data output task.\n\nFor \"Node 2\"'s configuration, just like the first one, the 'Mode' should be \"raw\" and the `jsonOutput` parameter will contain the specified JSON: `{\\n \"this_my_field_3\": \"value\",\\n \"this_my_field_4\": 1\\n}\\n`. This node will process the data it receives from \"Node 1\" and then output this new JSON. Since it's a 'Set' node, it's likely adding or merging this new data with whatever came from \"Node 1\". If \"Node 1\" output `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`, then \"Node 2\" will take that input and, with its default behavior, probably merge its own output, resulting in a single item with all four fields: `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1, \"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`.\n\nThe connection for this second 'Set' node (\"Node 2\") will obviously come directly from \"Node 1\" using a `main` connection. This ensures the sequential execution as requested: trigger fires, then \"Node 1\" sets its data, and then \"Node 2\" sets its data.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. We have the trigger, and the two sequential 'Set' nodes, each outputting the required JSON structure. The flow is clear and adheres to the prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an active n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFileIteration Methods\" that triggers via a webhook on the path \"Oboarding\/PromptEngineer\/IterationMethods\".

The prompt clearly states we need a workflow that triggers via a webhook and then retrieves content from a Google Doc to send back.\n\nFirst things first, any workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the requirements, it's explicitly stated to \"trigger via a webhook\". So, the very first node I'll need is a **Webhook** node. This makes perfect sense as it's designed to listen for incoming HTTP requests and initiate the workflow execution.\n\nI'll choose the `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` type for this, and the JSON shows it's `typeVersion: 2`. This node will effectively be the \"doorway\" into our workflow.\n\nNow, for its configuration. The prompt mentions a specific path: \"Oboarding\/PromptEngineer\/IterationMethods\". So, I'll set the `path` parameter to that exact string. This ensures the webhook only responds to requests sent to that particular endpoint.\nAlso, an important setting for a webhook that needs to send data back *after* performing some actions is its `responseMode`. If it were set to \"onReceived\", it would immediately respond, which isn't what we want here since we need to fetch data first. The JSON correctly sets it to \"responseNode\", which means we'll use a separate node later in the workflow to send the final response back to the client that triggered this webhook. This is crucial for workflows where data processing needs to happen before responding.\n\nWith the trigger set up, what's next? The core action is to \"retrieve content from the Google Doc\". To interact with Google Docs, we'll naturally need a **Google Docs** node. This node is specifically designed for such operations.\n\nI'll connect the `Webhook` node's main output to the `Google Docs` node's main input. This ensures that once the webhook receives a trigger, the workflow proceeds directly to the Google Docs operation.\n\nFor the `Google Docs` node, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and the JSON shows `typeVersion: 2`.\nThe most important parameter here is the `operation`. Since we need to \"retrieve content\", the `get` operation is the correct choice. It's designed to pull the content of a specified document.\nThen, we need to tell it *which* document to get the content from. This is where the `documentURL` parameter comes in. I'd configure this with the specific URL provided in the prompt, making sure the node knows exactly where to look for the file.\nOf course, to access Google Docs, authentication is required, so the node would also need appropriate `credentials` configured, like an OAuth2 API credential in this case.\n\nSo, at this point, the workflow can receive a request, and then it can fetch the content from the Google Doc. What's the final step? The prompt says to \"respond to the webhook with that content\". This clearly indicates we need a node that can send a response back to the original request that came into our `Webhook` node.\n\nThe perfect node for this is the **Respond to Webhook** node. This node works hand-in-hand with the initial `Webhook` node that had its `responseMode` set to \"responseNode\".\n\nI'll connect the `Google Docs` node's main output to the `Respond to Webhook` node's main input. This ensures that only after the Google Doc content has been successfully retrieved does the workflow attempt to send that content back.\n\nLooking at the `Respond to Webhook` node configuration, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, with `typeVersion: 1.1`.\nThe `respondWith` parameter should be set to \"text\" because we're expecting the content of a document, which is essentially plain text.\nFinally, the `responseBody` is where we put the actual content we want to send back. The `Google Docs` node, when performing a 'get' operation, typically outputs the document's content under a field like `content`. So, using an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` is the correct way to dynamically pull that content from the data passed from the `Google Docs` node and include it directly in the webhook response.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the functional flow. Beyond the nodes themselves, the workflow needs a name, which is \"GetOnboardingFileIteration Methods\" as specified. It also needs to be marked `active: true` so it's ready to receive triggers, and the tags \"Day 2\", \"PromptEngineer\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding\" would be applied to the workflow for organizational purposes, as outlined in the prompt. This overall structure fulfills all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an N8N workflow that starts with a manual trigger, connects to a Switch node, and then connects the third output branch (index 2) of the Switch node to a Set node named \"Edit Fields\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [440, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"rules\": {\"values\": [{\"conditions\": {\"options\": {\"caseSensitive\": true, \"leftValue\": \"\", \"typeValidation\": \"strict\"}, \"conditions\": [{\"leftValue\": \"\", \"rightValue\": \"\", \"operator\": {\"type\": \"string\", \"operation\": \"equals\"}}], \"combinator\": \"and\"}}, {}, {}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.switch\", \"typeVersion\": 3, \"position\": [660, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.3, \"position\": [840, 480]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Switch\": {\"main\": [null, null, [{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. When I'm building an n8n workflow, I usually start by thinking about what kicks off the process. The prompt specifically mentions a manual trigger, and looking at the provided JSON, I see a node for exactly that.\n\nSo, the very first node I'd place is the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. Its name, \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", is quite descriptive and tells me its purpose: it's designed to start the workflow either by manually clicking \"Execute workflow\" in the UI or via the \"Test workflow\" button. This is perfect for initial testing or for workflows that aren't event-driven but need to be run on demand. This particular one is `typeVersion: 1`, which is a common and stable version for this basic trigger. It doesn't have any parameters to configure, as its function is purely to initiate the workflow run.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, where does the data go? The prompt indicates the next step involves a Switch node. So, naturally, I'd connect the output of my `manualTrigger` node to a `n8n-nodes-base.switch` node. The JSON confirms this connection: the \"main\" output of \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" connects to the \"main\" input of the \"Switch\" node. This `switch` node is `typeVersion: 3`, which is quite up-to-date and typically offers good flexibility for routing.\n\nNow, for the Switch node itself, its purpose is to route incoming data based on certain conditions. When I look at its parameters, I see it has `rules` defined. In this specific JSON, the rules are largely empty: `{\"rules\": {\"values\": [{\"conditions\": {\"options\": {\"caseSensitive\": true, \"leftValue\": \"\", \"typeValidation\": \"strict\"}, \"conditions\": [{\"leftValue\": \"\", \"rightValue\": \"\", \"operator\": {\"type\": \"string\", \"operation\": \"equals\"}}], \"combinator\": \"and\"}}, {}, {}]}`. This means it's set up with three potential output branches, but the actual conditions for the first branch are generic (an empty string equals an empty string, which would always be true if the data existed, but there's no actual field specified). The second and third rule sets are completely blank. This suggests that while it's a Switch node, in its current configuration, it's not performing any complex conditional routing based on *data content* for the second and third outputs. It simply has those outputs available. If I were building this from scratch without the JSON, I'd pause here and think, \"Are these empty rules intentional? If so, which branch actually gets data? Typically, if the first rule is met, it exits there. If not, it goes to the next, and so on, with the last output often being a 'fallback' or 'else' branch.\"\n\nThe prompt specifically states that the *third* output branch (index 2) of the Switch node needs to connect to the next node. This is crucial. Even though the rules are empty, the Switch node in n8n, by default, outputs data from the first matching condition's branch. If no explicit condition is met, data might fall through, or one of the later branches might be used as a default depending on how the node is configured or how its rules are evaluated. Given the instruction, the important part is ensuring that the connection originates from the third output. The JSON confirms this: `{\"main\": [null, null, [{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. The `null, null` indicates that the first two output branches of the Switch node are not connected, while the third one (at index 2 in the array) is.\n\nFinally, that third output branch connects to a `n8n-nodes-base.set` node. This node is named \"Edit Fields,\" which gives me a strong hint about its purpose. A `set` node, `typeVersion: 3.3` in this case, is incredibly useful for manipulating data by adding, changing, or removing fields from items passing through it. Looking at its parameters, `{\"options\": {}}` indicates that no specific operations are configured yet. It's a placeholder, ready for someone to define which fields should be added, updated, or removed from the incoming data. This is a common pattern: use a Switch node to route items, and then use a Set node to prepare or transform the data specifically for that particular branch of the workflow. For instance, if this branch was for \"successful items,\" the Set node might add a \"status: processed\" field, or if it was for \"invalid items,\" it might add an \"error: invalid data\" field. In this workflow, it's simply set up to receive the data from that third Switch output, waiting for its field manipulation logic to be defined." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

I'll name it \"On clicking 'execute'\" as that clearly indicates its purpose. The `Manual Trigger` node is perfect for this because it allows me to execute the workflow whenever I explicitly click the 'Execute Workflow' button in the n8n UI. It doesn't need any complex configuration; it simply provides a starting point for the workflow's execution flow. No parameters are needed here, as its function is just to kick things off.\n\nNext, the prompt says it \"then makes an HTTP request to `https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php` to fetch a random cocktail.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can interact with external web services.

So, I'll input that into the 'URL' parameter of the node. Since it's a simple GET request to fetch data, no other specific 'options' are immediately necessary beyond the default. I'll also need to connect this node. It should execute right after the manual trigger, so I'll draw a connection from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's 'main' output to the \"HTTP Request\" node's 'main' input. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the HTTP request is the very next action performed. This HTTP request is expected to return JSON data containing information about a random cocktail, including its instructions.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies: \"The next step uses the LingvaNex node to translate the `strInstructions` from the previous HTTP request's output to Italian (`it_IT`).\" This explicitly tells me the next node to use is a **LingvaNex** node. I'll add a `n8n-nodes-base.lingvaNex` node, `typeVersion` 1, and name it \"LingvaNex.\" This node is ideal because it directly integrates with the LingvaNex API for translation services.\n\nNow, how to configure this LingvaNex node?\n1. **Connection:** It needs to receive data from the \"HTTP Request\" node, so I'll connect the 'main' output of \"HTTP Request\" to the 'main' input of \"LingvaNex.\" This ensures the translation happens only after we've successfully fetched the cocktail data.\n2. **Text to Translate:** The crucial part is getting the `strInstructions` field from the HTTP Request's output. I know that the HTTP Request node typically outputs the response body as JSON. Based on the common structure of TheCocktailDB API, the data usually comes wrapped in a `drinks` array, and each drink object within that array would have a `strInstructions` property. So, to access this, I'd use an expression. The expression would look something like `={{$node[\"HTTP Request\"].json[\"drinks\"][0][\"strInstructions\"]}}`. This expression specifically tells the LingvaNex node to look at the JSON output of the node named \"HTTP Request,\" access the `drinks` array (assuming it's the first item at index `0`), and then pull out the value of the `strInstructions` key. This is how the data flow from the HTTP Request node is properly consumed by the LingvaNex node.\n3. **Translate To:** The prompt clearly states to translate to Italian, which is represented by the language code `it_IT`. I'll set the 'Translate To' parameter to `it_IT`.\n4. **Credentials:** For the LingvaNex node to work, it requires authentication. This is handled by a credential. The JSON indicates `lingvaNexApi` as the credential type. I would configure this by selecting the appropriate LingvaNex API credential that has been previously set up in n8n. This credential would contain the necessary API key or token to authenticate with the LingvaNex service, allowing the translation to proceed. No other 'options' are specified for this node, so I'll leave them at their defaults.\n\nAnd that pretty much completes the workflow. It starts manually, fetches data from an API, and then uses a third-party service to process a specific piece of that data. The sequential connections ensure the steps execute in the correct order, and the expressions manage the data transfer between nodes." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger. It should then connect to a Mocean node configured to send an SMS, with empty 'to', 'from', and 'message' parameters, and utilizing the 'mocean' API credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [590, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"to\": \"\", \"from\": \"\", \"message\": \"\"}, \"name\": \"Mocean\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.mocean\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [790, 260]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Mocean\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow designed. The prompt is clear: a manual trigger, then a Mocean SMS send with specific empty parameters.\n\nSo, first things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick it off. Looking at the requirements, it explicitly states it should start with a manual trigger. That's straightforward. The `manualTrigger` node is perfect for this. It's designed to initiate a workflow directly from the n8n interface, typically by clicking a \"Execute Workflow\" button or similar. So, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the standard, current version for this node, and it doesn't really have any configurable parameters itself, it just... triggers. I'll give it a clear name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's obvious what it does in the interface. This will be the absolute first node in our canvas.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered manually, what's next? The prompt states it needs to connect to a Mocean node to send an SMS. So, naturally, the very next step after our trigger will be the `Mocean` node. I'll connect the main output of the `manualTrigger` node directly to the input of this new `Mocean` node. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, it immediately passes control to the Mocean operation.\n\nNow, let's configure this `Mocean` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.mocean`, also at `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically built to interact with the Mocean API for sending SMS messages. That's exactly what's required.\n\nThe prompt specifies some crucial parameters for the Mocean node: the 'to', 'from', and 'message' parameters should all be empty. This is interesting, as usually you'd fill these with actual recipient numbers, sender IDs, and message content. But following the requirement, I'll set:\n* `to`: `\"\"` (an empty string)\n* `from`: `\"\"` (an empty string)\n* `message`: `\"\"` (an empty string)\n\nThis setup means that when the node executes, it will attempt to send an SMS with no recipient, no sender ID, and no content. This might lead to an API error from Mocean, but it strictly adheres to the prompt's configuration request.\n\nFinally, the prompt also mentions utilizing the 'mocean' API credentials. This means the `Mocean` node will need a credential setup. While I don't provide actual values for sensitive data, I understand that in a real-world scenario, this `credentials` field would link to a pre-configured Mocean API credential resource within n8n, which would contain the necessary API key and secret. For the purpose of this design, I just note that `credentials` will point to `moceanApi: \"mocean\"`, signifying that a credential named \"mocean\" (or similar, depending on how it's saved in n8n's credential store) is used.\n\nSo, to recap the flow: manual trigger fires, execution immediately passes to the Mocean node, which then attempts to send an SMS using the specified, empty 'to', 'from', and 'message' parameters, all authenticated via the designated Mocean API credentials. It's a very direct, two-node workflow. No complex logic, branching, or data manipulation is needed between them. It's literally just \"start\" then \"send an empty SMS\"." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a manually triggered Plan and Execute AI Agent.

The request is pretty clear: a manually triggered Plan and Execute AI Agent that uses a specific OpenAI model, has a calculator tool, and computes a sum, returning just the number.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt says \"manually triggered,\" which immediately tells me I'll need a specific type of node for that.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding the **When clicking \"Test workflow\"** node. This is a `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. It's perfect because it lets me kick off the workflow simply by pressing the \"Test workflow\" button in the n8n UI, which matches the manual trigger requirement. It's the simplest and most direct way to get things going for an on-demand process like this.\n\nNext up, the core of this workflow is an AI Agent. The prompt specifically asks for a \"Plan and Execute AI Agent.\" This points directly to the `AI Agent` node from the Langchain integration.\n\nSo, I'd bring in the **AI Agent3** node. Its `type` is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.agent` and its `typeVersion` is `1.4`. This is the orchestrator, the brain that will decide how to solve the problem. Once I have it on the canvas, I'll connect the `When clicking \"Test workflow\"` node's `main` output to the `AI Agent3` node's `main` input. This way, when the manual trigger fires, it feeds into and activates the AI Agent.\n\nNow, let's configure this `AI Agent3` node. The prompt is very specific: \"The agent should use `gpt-4-turbo-preview` (temperature 0), be equipped with a Calculator tool, and be prompted to compute '30 + (10002200 \/ 100)', returning only the numerical result.\"\n\nIn the agent's parameters, I need to set the `agent` type. The prompt calls for a \"Plan and Execute AI Agent,\" so I'll select `planAndExecuteAgent` here. This particular agent type is good because it breaks down complex tasks into smaller, manageable steps, which can be very effective for multi-tool operations like calculations.\n\nThen, for the actual task, the prompt. I'll set `promptType` to `define` and then carefully type in the exact prompt text: \"What is the result of 30 + (10002200 \/ 100)? Only respond with a number.\" This ensures the agent knows precisely what to compute and how to format its output.\n\nOkay, the agent needs a language model to \"think.\" The prompt specifies `gpt-4-turbo-preview` with a `temperature` of `0`. This means I'll need an OpenAI chat model node.\n\nSo, I'd add the **OpenAI Chat Model3** node. Its `type` is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatOpenAi` and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is specifically designed to connect to OpenAI's chat models. Inside its parameters, I'd set the `model` to `gpt-4-turbo-preview`. Crucially, under `options`, I'd set the `temperature` to `0`. A temperature of 0 makes the model's responses as deterministic and factual as possible, which is exactly what we want for a precise numerical calculation. For credentials, this is where an OpenAI API key would be selected or configured to allow n8n to connect to the service.\n\nOnce that's configured, I need to connect it to the `AI Agent3` node. I'll drag a connection from the `OpenAI Chat Model3` node's `ai_languageModel` output to the `AI Agent3` node's `ai_languageModel` input. This essentially gives the agent its 'voice' and 'reasoning' capabilities.\n\nFinally, the agent needs a tool to perform the actual calculation. The prompt specifically mentions a \"Calculator tool.\"\n\nSo, I'll add the **Calculator3** node. This is a `toolCalculator` with `typeVersion: 1`, also from the Langchain integration. This node provides a straightforward way for the AI agent to perform mathematical operations. It doesn't require any specific configuration within the node itself; its purpose is simply to offer the calculator functionality to the agent.\n\nAnd just like the language model, this tool needs to be made available to the agent. So, I'll connect the `Calculator3` node's `ai_tool` output to the `AI Agent3` node's `ai_tool` input. Now the `AI Agent` is fully equipped: it can be triggered, it has a brain (the OpenAI model), and it has a tool (the calculator) to execute its plan to solve the arithmetic problem. This setup perfectly aligns with the \"Plan and Execute\" paradigm, allowing the agent to determine it needs the calculator for the math and then use it." } { "prompt": "Set up a workflow starting with a POST webhook.

The main goal here is to react to an incoming POST webhook and then use some of the data from that webhook to create something on Netlify.\n\nFirst things first, how do we trigger this whole process? The prompt explicitly states it needs to start with a POST webhook. So, the very first node we'll need to pull onto our canvas is going to be a **Webhook** node. This is a fundamental starting point for many workflows that react to external events.\n\nSo, I'll drag out an `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node. The `typeVersion` for this particular node is `1`, which is pretty standard for the webhook functionality we need.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Webhook node? It needs to be a POST webhook. So, looking at its parameters, I'd set the `httpMethod` to `POST`. The `path` parameter would automatically get populated or I'd define a unique path here, like a specific `webhookId` or custom path that external systems will send requests to. This path is essential for n8n to know which workflow to trigger when a request comes in. There aren't any special `options` needed for this basic setup, so I'd leave those as default. This node is now ready to receive data.\n\nAlright, once the webhook receives data, what's next? The prompt says we need to connect it to a Netlify node to perform a 'create' operation. So, naturally, the next step is to add a **Netlify** node.\n\nI'll bring in an `n8n-nodes-base.netlify` node. Again, the `typeVersion` for this specific node is `1`. This node is perfect because it's designed to interact directly with the Netlify API, allowing us to manage sites, deployments, and in this case, create resources.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The Netlify operation should only happen *after* the webhook has successfully received data. So, I'd draw a 'main' connection from the Webhook node's output to the Netlify node's input. This ensures a sequential flow where the data from the webhook is passed directly to the Netlify node for processing.\n\nLet's configure the Netlify node. First, it needs to know *which* Netlify site to interact with. The `siteId` parameter is where I'd specify the unique identifier for the particular Netlify site we're targeting. This ensures our operation happens on the correct site.\n\nNext, the prompt specifies \"perform a 'create' operation\". So, for the `operation` parameter, I'd select `create`. This tells the Netlify node exactly what action we intend to perform on the specified site.\n\nThis is where it gets interesting: \"using the webhook's `body.data.title` as the Netlify item's title.\" This means we need to dynamically extract a piece of information from the incoming webhook's data and use it for a field in our Netlify operation. Looking at the Netlify node's parameters, there's usually an `additionalFields` section where we can add custom fields for the `create` operation. Within that, I'd add a `title` field.\n\nTo get the value for this `title` field, I'll use an expression. The webhook data will be available in the `$json` variable. Specifically, the prompt states `body.data.title`. So, the expression would be `={{$json[\"body\"][\"data\"][\"title\"]}}`. This tells n8n to look into the incoming item, find the `body` property, then inside that find `data`, and finally extract the `title`. This is crucial for making the workflow dynamic and data-driven based on the incoming webhook payload.\n\nFinally, for the Netlify node to actually interact with the Netlify API, it needs authentication. The `credentials` parameter is where a Netlify API credential would be configured. This credential securely stores the necessary API keys or tokens, allowing n8n to authenticate and make requests on behalf of a Netlify account.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The webhook listens, captures the data, and then passes it along to the Netlify node which uses a specific part of that data to create an item on a designated Netlify site." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Test workflow 1' that starts with a manual trigger connected to a Code node containing JavaScript to add a 'myNewField' to items.

The user wants something pretty specific, so I'll need to make sure I cover all the requirements.\n\nFirst off, the workflow needs a name: \"Test workflow 1\". That's a good starting point, I'll set that right away in the workflow's main properties.\n\nLooking at the user's request, it says the workflow should \"start with a manual trigger\". This is straightforward. My first node is definitely going to be a trigger, and specifically a \"Manual Trigger\" node. I'd drag that onto the canvas. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it allows me to manually initiate the workflow execution, which is exactly what \"starts with a manual trigger\" implies. It doesn't need any special parameters, so I'll just leave its configuration as default. I'll place it somewhere easy to see, like `[220, 260]` on the grid. I'll name it \"On clicking 'execute'\" as seen in the JSON, which is a good descriptive name for a manual trigger.\n\nNext, the prompt states it should be \"connected to a Code node containing JavaScript to add a 'myNewField' to items.\" Okay, so the output of my Manual Trigger needs to feed directly into a Code node. I'll pull out a Code node, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.code`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. I'll place it to the right of the Manual Trigger, maybe around `[400, 260]`, to maintain a clean flow.\n\nNow, for the critical part of the Code node: the JavaScript. The goal is to \"add a 'myNewField' to items.\" This means I need to process the data coming *into* the Code node. The standard way to access input data in an n8n Code node is through `$input.all()`. This gives me an array of all the items passed to the node.\n\nSo, within the `jsCode` parameter of the Code node, I'll write a loop:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nThis loop iterates through each `item` that the Code node receives. For each `item`, it accesses its `json` property (which holds the actual data payload) and adds a new property named `myNewField` to it, setting its value to `1`. Finally, it's crucial to `return $input.all()` because the Code node needs to output the modified items so they can be passed to subsequent nodes if there were any. If I didn't return anything, the data flow would stop here. In this specific workflow, there are no subsequent nodes, but it's good practice to return the processed data.\n\nNow, about the connections. The Manual Trigger needs to connect to the Code node. So, the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node will connect to the `main` input of the \"Code\" node. The Code node's output, as the JSON shows, isn't connected to anything further, indicated by `{\"main\": [[]]}`. This means the workflow ends after the Code node has processed its task.\n\nFinally, the prompt has two more requirements for the workflow itself, not the nodes. It says the workflow should be \"inactive\" and include \"tags 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'\". So, in the overall workflow settings, I'll set the `active` property to `false`. Then, I'll add the two specified tags, \"some-tag-1\" and \"some-tag-2\", to the workflow's `tags` array. These tags are just for organization and filtering within n8n. The other properties like `id`, `hash`, and `meta.instanceId` are generated by n8n when the workflow is saved or imported, so I don't actively set those during design, but I know they'll be there.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers all the requirements for building this \"Test workflow 1\". It's a simple, two-node workflow designed to demonstrate adding a field to incoming data items upon manual execution, and it respects the inactivity and tagging requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"NDV search bugs (introduced by schema view?)\" that starts with a manual trigger.

The user wants something specific, so I'll lay it out step by step, just as if I were building it in n8n.\n\nFirst off, the request specifies the workflow name: \"NDV search bugs (introduced by schema view?)\". So, I'd start by creating a new workflow and immediately setting that name. This helps keep things organized from the get-go.\n\nNow, for the actual logic. The prompt states the workflow \"starts with a manual trigger.\" That's pretty straightforward. I'll drag and drop a trigger node onto the canvas. Looking at the JSON, it confirms this is a `manualTrigger` node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect for when you want to initiate a workflow by manually clicking a button in the n8n interface, like during testing or for an on-demand process. There aren't usually any complex configurations for this node; its parameters are typically empty, as seen here. It simply provides a starting point for execution.\n\nNext, the prompt says to \"Connect the trigger to a 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node configured to 'getAllPeople'\". Okay, so after the workflow starts, I need to fetch some data. The `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node sounds like a custom or example node, probably for demonstration purposes within an n8n training environment. I'd search for that specific node type. The JSON confirms its type as `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` and its `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed to interact with a simulated customer database.\n\nOnce I've placed it, I need to configure it. The prompt is clear: it needs to be configured to \"getAllPeople\". So, I'd go into the node's parameters and look for an 'operation' or 'method' field. The JSON shows `{\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}`. This tells the node exactly what action to perform on the datastore \u2013 in this case, retrieve all available customer records. This is crucial for getting the initial dataset we need to work with. I would then draw a connection from the output of the `When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019` (manual trigger) node to the input of this `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node. This is a standard 'main' connection, meaning the data flow continues directly from the trigger to the data retrieval step.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"then connect its output to an 'Edit Fields' node.\" So, after getting the customer data, the next step is to process it with an 'Edit Fields' node. This node is incredibly versatile for transforming data. I'd add it to the canvas. The JSON identifies it as `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.4`. This is a common utility node used for setting, renaming, or removing fields from items as they pass through the workflow.\n\nNow, for its configuration. The JSON shows its parameters as `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": []}, \"includeOtherFields\": true, \"options\": {}}`. This is interesting. The `assignments` array is empty, which means no new fields are being added or existing ones modified in this specific configuration. However, `includeOtherFields: true` means all fields from the incoming data will be passed through to the output, effectively making this node act as a passthrough for now. It's possible this node is included as a placeholder for future data manipulation, or simply as a final step in the requested structure. Even if it's not performing any active transformation right now, it's a very common component for data preparation, like sanitizing data or enriching it before sending it to a final destination. The `typeVersion: 3.4` indicates it's a relatively recent version of the set node, and newer versions often include performance improvements or new capabilities for field manipulation, though its core function remains the same.\n\nThe last step is to connect the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node's output to the `Edit Fields` node's input. Again, this would be a 'main' connection, ensuring the customer data retrieved in the previous step is fed directly into the 'Edit Fields' node for any potential processing, even if it's just passing it through for now.

Its internal ID is `55635c7b-92ee-4d2d-a0c0-baff9ab071da`, and I'd typically name it something intuitive like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" to make its purpose obvious to anyone looking at the canvas.\n\nNext, the prompt says we need to \"retrieve all people from the 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node.\" This immediately tells me what the second node in our sequence needs to be. n8n provides specific nodes for interacting with its training datastores, and this one is pretty clearly named.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This is the dedicated node to interact with the specified customer datastore. It's purpose-built for retrieving this specific type of training data.\n* **Configuration:** The critical part here is the `operation`. The prompt asks for \"all people,\" and the JSON shows `{\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}`. This is perfect; it tells the node exactly what to do \u2013 fetch every single person record available in that datastore. The node is named \"Customer Datastore (n8n training),\" which matches its function. Its ID is `4737af43-e49b-4c92-b76f-32605c047114`.\n* **Connection:** This node needs to execute *after* the manual trigger. So, I'd connect the \"main\" output of \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" to the \"main\" input of this \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the very next step is to retrieve the customer data. The data that flows out of this node will be an item (or multiple items, in this case, one for each person) containing all the fields like ID, name, email, notes, country, and created date, as seen in the `pinData` section.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that the workflow \"then connects to an 'Edit Fields' node.\" In n8n, the generic node for manipulating fields on items is the `Set` node. It allows you to add new fields, rename existing ones, or even remove them. The prompt implies a general-purpose manipulation step.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `3.4`\n* **Reasoning:** The `Set` node, often custom-named \"Edit Fields\" or \"Map Data,\" is the standard way to transform data items within n8n workflows. It's flexible enough to handle various data manipulation needs.\n* **Configuration:** Looking at the `parameters` for this node, I see `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": []}, \"includeOtherFields\": true, \"options\": {}}`. This means that, as currently configured, it's set to *not* perform any specific field additions or modifications (`assignments` is an empty array). However, `includeOtherFields: true` is important because it means all the fields coming from the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node (like `id`, `name`, `email`, etc.) will simply pass through this node unchanged. This is a common setup if you're bringing data in and *then* decide what transformations you want to apply later, or if this node is simply a placeholder for future field editing logic. Its ID is `8cc9b374-1856-4f3f-9315-08e6e27840d8`, and it's aptly named \"Edit Fields.\"\n* **Connection:** The data from the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" needs to flow into this \"Edit Fields\" node. So, I'd connect the \"main\" output of \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" to the \"main\" input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This ensures that all the retrieved customer data items are passed along for potential field manipulation, even if no specific changes are configured yet." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON containing a single \"Webhook\" node positioned at [360, 220] and configured with the path \"FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ\" and a specific `webhookId`. Include detailed `pinData` for this webhook, simulating a `test` execution with typical browser `headers` (e.g., `user-agent`, `cookie`) and a `webhookUrl` derived from the node's path.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [360, 220]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start by thinking about the overall goal here. The prompt asks for a very specific n8n workflow: it needs to contain just a single \"Webhook\" node, positioned precisely, and configured with a particular path. On top of that, it requires detailed `pinData` to simulate a test execution, including typical browser headers and a derived webhook URL.\n\nSo, the first and most obvious step is to add the core component, which is the \"Webhook\" node. This node type, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 2`, is the fundamental way n8n can listen for incoming HTTP requests. It's perfect for initiating a workflow based on an external event, which seems to be the purpose here.\n\nOnce we've decided on the \"Webhook\" node, the next consideration is its placement on the canvas. The prompt specifies `position: [360, 220]`. So, we'd simply drag and drop the node, or set its coordinates, to that precise location to keep the workflow tidy and organized according to the user's layout preference.\n\nNow, for the node's configuration. The `parameters` object within the \"Webhook\" node is where we define how it behaves. The prompt explicitly states the `path` should be `\"FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ\"`. This is crucial because it determines the specific URL endpoint where this webhook will listen for requests. It makes the URL unique and easily identifiable. The `options` object is currently empty, which means we're not setting any advanced options like authentication, response mode, or specific HTTP methods for this particular webhook. For a basic setup, default options are often sufficient.\n\nBeyond the configurable parameters, the \"Webhook\" node will also be assigned unique identifiers by the n8n system itself. We see `id` and `webhookId` in the JSON. These are essential for n8n to internally track and manage this specific webhook instance, but they're not something we'd typically configure manually; they're generated automatically.\n\nWith the node itself set up, the more interesting part is how we simulate its behavior for testing. This is where `pinData` comes in. `pinData` is incredibly useful for providing mock data that a node would typically output, allowing us to test subsequent nodes in the workflow without actually triggering the webhook externally.\n\nFor the \"Webhook\" node's `pinData`, we're simulating a `test` execution, as indicated by `executionMode: \"test\"`. This tells n8n that this data represents a scenario where the webhook was triggered in test mode, which often results in a different base URL for the webhook (like `\/webhook-test\/` instead of `\/webhook\/`).\n\nThe `webhookUrl` is then constructed based on this. Since it's a test execution, it correctly shows `http:\/\/localhost:5678\/webhook-test\/FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`. This URL is derived directly from the `path` we configured earlier, combined with the n8n instance's base URL and the \"test\" mode prefix.\n\nThe `headers` object within the `pinData` is designed to simulate a typical browser request. We've included common headers like `connection: \"keep-alive\"`, `user-agent` (simulating a Chrome browser on a Mac, which is a very common browser signature), `accept: \"*\/*\"`, and `accept-encoding: \"gzip, deflate\"`. These are standard headers that a browser would send, providing context about the client making the request. We also see `cookie` data, which would typically contain session or tracking information, and `host`, indicating where the request was sent. These detailed headers make the simulated input very realistic, helping to ensure that any downstream nodes expecting such data will function correctly during testing.\n\nWe also have empty `params`, `query`, and `body` objects. This indicates that for this simulated test, the webhook call did not include any URL parameters (like `\/path\/:paramName`), query string parameters (like `?key=value`), or a request body (for POST\/PUT requests). This suggests a simple GET request simulation, which is a common starting point for webhook tests.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the entire structure. The workflow is simple, just one node, but the `pinData` is quite rich, providing a solid foundation for testing any subsequent nodes that would process the incoming webhook data." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow where two schedule triggers, \"Trigger A\" and \"Trigger B\", both connect to a \"Set\" node named \"Edit Fields\". Inside \"Edit Fields\", set a property `prevNode` to an expression that captures the name of the preceding node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6a8c3d85-26f8-4f28-ace9-55a196a23d37\", \"name\": \"prevNode\", \"value\": \"={{ $prevNode.name }}\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [200, -100]}, {\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Trigger A\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [0, -100]}, {\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Trigger B\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [0, 100]}], \"connections\": {\"Trigger A\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Trigger B\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this workflow from scratch, thinking through each piece as we go.\n\nThe prompt asks for a workflow with two schedule triggers that both connect to a \"Set\" node. The \"Set\" node needs to capture the name of the preceding node.\n\nFirst things first, a workflow needs a starting point. Since the requirement specifies \"schedule triggers,\" that's exactly where we should begin. We need two of them.\n\nLet's add the first one. I'll pick a **Schedule Trigger** node. This is perfect because it allows the workflow to be activated automatically at predefined intervals, which aligns with the \"schedule trigger\" requirement. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`, and based on the JSON, the `typeVersion` is `1.2`. I'll name this one \"Trigger A\", as specified. Its position in the workflow editor, according to the JSON, will be at `[0, -100]`. For its configuration, the JSON shows an empty `rule` object with an empty `interval` array `[{}]`. This means it's set up with default, unconfigured interval settings, which would typically be filled in to specify, for example, running every hour or every day. For our current purpose, just having the node present with its default rule structure is enough.\n\nNext, the prompt states \"two schedule triggers.\" So, I'll add another **Schedule Trigger** node. Again, it will be `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` with `typeVersion` `1.2`. I'll name this second one \"Trigger B\". I'll place it slightly below \"Trigger A\" to give them some visual separation but still keep them at the beginning of the workflow. The JSON indicates its position at `[0, 100]`. Similar to \"Trigger A\", its `rule` parameter also shows the default empty `interval` configuration `[{}]`. This setup ensures both can independently kick off workflow executions.\n\nNow that we have our two starting points, the prompt says \"both connect to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields'\". So, the next logical step is to add that \"Set\" node. A **Set** node (`n8n-nodes-base.set`, `typeVersion: 3.4`) is designed specifically for adding, modifying, or removing properties on items as they pass through the workflow. This sounds exactly like what we need, as we're asked to \"set a property.\" I'll name it \"Edit Fields\" as requested. I'll place it to the right of our two trigger nodes, as it will be receiving data from them. The JSON puts it at `[200, -100]`.\n\nNow, let's configure this \"Edit Fields\" node. The core requirement here is to \"set a property `prevNode` to an expression that captures the name of the preceding node.\" Inside the \"Set\" node's parameters, under `assignments`, we need to add a new property.\nI'll set the `name` of this property to `prevNode`.\nFor its `value`, we need an expression. n8n has a very handy way to access data from previous nodes. The expression `{{ $prevNode.name }}` is precisely what's needed here. The `$prevNode` object is a special variable that n8n provides, which contains information about the node immediately upstream in the execution path. By accessing `.name` on `$prevNode`, we retrieve the display name of that preceding node. This is a powerful feature for dynamic workflows. The `type` for this value will be `string` since we're capturing a node's name, which is text.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these nodes. The prompt specifies that \"Trigger A\" and \"Trigger B\" both connect to \"Edit Fields\".\nSo, I'll draw a connection from \"Trigger A\" to \"Edit Fields\". This will be a standard `main` connection, and it will connect to the first input of \"Edit Fields\" (hence `index: 0`).\nThen, I'll do the same for \"Trigger B\". I'll draw another `main` connection from \"Trigger B\" to \"Edit Fields\", also connecting to the `index: 0` input of \"Edit Fields\". This means that regardless of whether \"Trigger A\" or \"Trigger B\" activates the workflow, the execution path will always proceed to \"Edit Fields\", and the `$prevNode.name` expression will correctly resolve to \"Trigger A\" or \"Trigger B\" respectively, depending on which one initiated the specific execution.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow as per the requirements and the provided JSON. We have the two schedule triggers, their connection to the \"Set\" node, and the \"Set\" node correctly configured to dynamically capture the name of whichever trigger initiated the run." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON with a single Airtable node positioned at [380, 180]. Configure its 'application' and 'table' parameters to be URL-based, empty, use regex for extraction, and have `__rl` set to true.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"application\": {\"__rl\": true, \"mode\": \"url\", \"value\": \"\", \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"}, \"table\": {\"__rl\": true, \"mode\": \"url\", \"value\": \"\", \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"}}, \"name\": \"Airtable\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.airtable\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [380, 180]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is pretty clear about what's needed: a single Airtable node, configured in a very specific way.\n\nFirst things first, I need an Airtable node. That's the core of this workflow, and the `n8n-nodes-base.airtable` type is exactly what we're looking for to interact with Airtable. It's purpose-built for that. I see the JSON specifies `typeVersion: 1`. That's a good starting point; it means we're using a stable, well-defined version of the node. Sometimes, different versions can have slightly different parameter names or functionalities, but sticking to what's provided is key here.\n\nNow, where should it go on the canvas? The prompt specifies `[380, 180]`. I'll place it right there. It's a single node, so central placement makes sense, easily visible.\n\nWith the node in place, the next step is to configure its parameters, and this is where the specifics come in. The prompt highlights two key parameters: `application` (which corresponds to the Base ID in Airtable's terminology) and `table`.\n\nLet's start with the `application` parameter. The prompt says it should be \"URL-based, empty, use regex for extraction, and have `__rl` set to true.\"\n\nLooking at the JSON for `application`:\n* `\"mode\": \"url\"`: This immediately tells me that the Base ID isn't going to be typed in directly. Instead, the node expects a URL from which it can extract the ID. This is really useful if the Base ID might change, or if it's coming in dynamically from a previous node.\n* `\"value\": \"\"`: Because the mode is \"url\" and we're using regex, this field is left empty. The actual ID will be extracted, not explicitly provided here. This aligns perfectly with the requirement.\n* `\"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`: Ah, this is the extraction part. This regular expression is designed to match a typical Airtable URL and specifically capture the Base ID. The `([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})` part is the capturing group that will pull out the actual Base ID from the URL. This makes the node very flexible; it just needs a full Airtable URL, and it figures out the Base ID on its own.\n* `\"__rl\": true`: This is important. `__rl` stands for \"resource lookup\" or \"runtime lookup.\" Setting this to `true` means that n8n will dynamically resolve this parameter's value at runtime, usually by looking it up from an incoming data field or another defined source. This is crucial for making the workflow dynamic and reusable without hardcoding specific Airtable IDs. It truly fits the \"URL-based, empty, use regex for extraction, and have `__rl` set to true\" requirement.\n\nNext, let's configure the `table` parameter. The requirements for this are identical to `application`.\n\nLooking at the JSON for `table`:\n* `\"mode\": \"url\"`: Just like the application, the Table ID will be extracted from a URL, not entered directly. This maintains consistency and flexibility.\n* `\"value\": \"\"`: Again, empty, as the value will be extracted via regex.\n* `\"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`: This regex is a bit more specific. It first matches the base URL and the Base ID (`[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}`) and then has a second capturing group `([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})` to extract the Table ID. This is a very robust way to get both pieces of information from a single Airtable URL that includes both the Base and Table identifiers.\n* `\"__rl\": true`: This again ensures that the Table ID is also dynamically resolved at runtime, making the node highly adaptable to different Airtable tables without manual reconfiguration for each new table.\n\nFinally, I notice that the `connections` object in the JSON is empty. This makes perfect sense for a workflow that currently consists of only a single node. There are no other nodes for it to connect to, input from, or output to.\n\nSo, to summarize my design thought process: identify the core node type, position it, and then meticulously configure each specified parameter, ensuring each setting (`mode: \"url\"`, `value: \"\"`, `__regex`, and `__rl: true`) aligns with the prompt's explicit requirements and the JSON's definition. This setup means the workflow is incredibly flexible, capable of interacting with different Airtable bases and tables simply by providing the correct URL as input, without needing to hardcode IDs." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers manually, then uses the Google Calendar node to add an event.

It's the most straightforward way to initiate a workflow directly from the n8n UI. When someone clicks \"Execute Workflow,\" this node fires, and it's perfect for a one-off or on-demand action like adding an event. It doesn't need to listen for external events or data, it just needs a human to tell it to go.\n\nI'd place it on the canvas, perhaps somewhere on the left, ready to connect to the next logical step. Looking at the JSON, its name is \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is a descriptive default. It doesn't require any specific parameters to configure for its basic function, so its `parameters` block is empty, which makes sense.\n\n**Step 2: Performing the Action - Adding the Calendar Event**\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next step is to perform the actual task: adding an event to Google Calendar. The prompt explicitly says to \"uses the Google Calendar node to add an event.\"\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.googleCalendar`\n* **TypeVersion:** `1`\n\nWhy this node? This is the dedicated integration for Google Calendar within n8n. It provides all the necessary functionalities to interact with Google Calendar, including creating events, retrieving events, and more. It's purpose-built for this kind of task.\n\nNow, how does it connect? The `manualTrigger` node simply needs to pass control to the `googleCalendar` node. It doesn't really pass any specific data that the Google Calendar node needs for *this* particular operation (as all event details are static here). So, a simple \"main\" connection is all that's required. When the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node finishes its (minimal) job, it will pass an item along its main output, triggering the \"Google Calendar\" node.\n\nNext, I need to configure this Google Calendar node based on the prompt's requirements:\n\n1. **Calendar:** \"The event should be added to the calendar 'shaligramshraddha@gmail.com'.\"\n * Within the `parameters` of the Google Calendar node, there should be a field for `calendar`. I would input the exact email address provided: `\"shaligramshraddha@gmail.com\"`. This tells the node precisely which calendar among the user's connected Google calendars to target.\n\n2. **Dates:** \"from June 25, 2020, to June 27, 2020.\"\n * To define the event's duration, I'll look for `start` and `end` fields in the node's parameters.\n * For `start`, I'd input `\"2020-06-25T07:00:00.000Z\"`. The prompt gives the date, and adding `T07:00:00.000Z` sets it to 7 AM UTC, which is a common default or specific choice for an all-day event or the start of a multi-day event in this format.\n * For `end`, I'd input `\"2020-06-27T07:00:00.000Z\"`. This indicates the event ends on June 27th at 7 AM UTC. This setup accurately reflects the desired date range.\n * The `additionalFields: {}` simply means no other specific event properties like a description, location, or attendees are being set, which aligns with the simplicity of the prompt.\n\n3. **Credentials:** To actually interact with a user's Google Calendar, this node *must* be authenticated.\n * The JSON shows `credentials: {\"googleCalendarOAuth2Api\": \"new one\"}`. This indicates that an OAuth 2.0 credential configuration named \"new one\" (or whatever the user called it) has been set up. I would need to ensure that a valid Google Calendar OAuth2 API credential is linked to this node. This credential handles the secure connection to Google on behalf of the user, granting the workflow permission to add events to their calendar.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow starts with a manual trigger, passes control directly to the Google Calendar node, which then uses the configured calendar ID, start date, and end date, along with the user's credentials, to create the event. The connections simply pass the execution flow from the trigger to the action node." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then reads all data from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"filters\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\"}, \"name\": \"Microsoft Excel\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.microsoftExcel\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Microsoft Excel\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down how I'd put together this workflow, thinking through each step.\n\nFirst off, the user prompt is clear: \"Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then reads all data from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.\" This gives me two main functional requirements.\n\nSo, where to start? A workflow always needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly states \"manual trigger.\" This makes my first node selection incredibly straightforward.\n\n1. **Node 1: The Trigger**\n * I'll add a `Manual Trigger` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and I see it's `typeVersion: 1`. This is the standard, simplest way to kick off a workflow on demand, perfect for what's requested.\n * For its configuration, a `Manual Trigger` node typically doesn't need any special parameters. It just waits for you to click \"Execute Workflow\" or \"Test Workflow\" in the n8n UI. So, its `parameters` will just be an empty object `{}`. That fits perfectly with the provided JSON. I'll place it at `[250, 300]` on the canvas for good visual flow.\n\nNow that the workflow can be initiated, the next step is to actually \"read all data from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.\" This tells me I need an integration with Microsoft Excel.\n\n2. **Node 2: The Excel Reader**\n * For interacting with Microsoft Excel, n8n has a dedicated node: the `Microsoft Excel` node. This is the obvious choice here. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.microsoftExcel`, and again, `typeVersion: 1` is what I'm seeing and what I'd use.\n * I'll place this node right after the `Manual Trigger` on the canvas, perhaps at `[450, 300]`, to visually represent the sequential flow.\n * Next, I need to configure this Excel node. The key part of the requirement is \"reads *all* data.\" When I look at the operations available for the `Microsoft Excel` node, I'd expect options like \"get,\" \"getAll,\" \"create,\" \"update,\" \"delete,\" etc. The \"getAll\" operation is precisely what I need to retrieve every row or all available data from a selected spreadsheet. So, I'll set the `operation` parameter to `\"getAll\"`.\n * The JSON also shows `filters: {}`. This confirms my choice of \"getAll\" because if I were trying to fetch specific data, say, a particular row or data matching certain criteria, I'd define those conditions within the `filters` object. An empty `filters` object, combined with the `getAll` operation, means \"fetch everything without any specific filtering.\"\n * Finally, to connect to Microsoft Excel, this node will require authentication. The JSON indicates `credentials: {\"microsoftExcelOAuth2Api\": \"ms-oauth-creds\"}`. This means I'd need to have pre-configured an OAuth2 credential in n8n that allows it to securely access Microsoft Excel on behalf of the user. I'd simply link that existing credential here to enable the connection. I wouldn't include any sensitive details like tokens or specific IDs in the workflow itself, just the reference to the pre-configured credential.\n\n3. **Connecting the Nodes**\n * The `Manual Trigger` node needs to tell the `Microsoft Excel` node to start its operation. This is a straightforward sequence. The output of the `Manual Trigger` (which just signals that the workflow has started) will feed into the input of the `Microsoft Excel` node.\n * This will be a `main` connection. So, the `connections` object will specify that the node named \"On clicking 'execute'\" (my `Manual Trigger`) has a `main` output that goes to the `Microsoft Excel` node, also via its `main` input. This ensures that as soon as I manually trigger the workflow, the `Microsoft Excel` node immediately executes its \"getAll\" operation.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow is designed to start manually and then fetch all data from an Excel spreadsheet. It directly addresses all parts of the user's prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that generates a simple JSON object, converts it into a binary data item, and then saves it to a file named `test.json`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"test.json\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [800, 350]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"items[0].binary = {\\n data: {\\n data: new Buffer(JSON.stringify(items[0].json, null, 2)).toString('base64')\\n }\\n};\\nreturn items;\"}, \"name\": \"Make Binary\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.function\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 350]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"items[0].json = {\\n \\\"text\\\": \\\"asdf\\\",\\n \\\"number\\\": 1\\n};\\nreturn items;\"}, \"name\": \"Create Example Data\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.function\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [390, 350]}], \"connections\": {\"Make Binary\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Create Example Data\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Make Binary\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start building this workflow step by step, thinking through each part as we go.\n\nThe first thing we need to do, according to the user's request, is to \"generate a simple JSON object.\" For generating data directly within n8n, especially custom data, a Function node is often the most flexible choice. It allows us to write JavaScript code to create any structure we need.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a **Function** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.function`, and I'll use `typeVersion: 1` as per the blueprint. I'll call this node something descriptive like \"Create Example Data\" so it's clear what its purpose is.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Function node to generate the JSON? Inside its parameters, specifically the `functionCode`, we need to define the JSON object. The workflow JSON shows `items[0].json = {\"text\": \"asdf\", \"number\": 1}; return items;`. This is perfect. We're attaching a new property called `json` to the first item in the incoming data (even if there are no items yet, n8n will create a default one for the first node if needed). This `json` property will hold our simple JSON object with a string and a number. The `return items;` is crucial to pass the modified data to the next node.\n\nNext, the request states we need to \"convert it into a binary data item.\" Our JSON object is currently living as a property on an n8n item (`items[0].json`). To convert it into a *binary data item* that n8n can then save as a file, we need to manipulate it again. A **Function** node is again a very suitable choice for this kind of data transformation because it offers the power of JavaScript.\n\nSo, I'll add another **Function** node, with `type: n8n-nodes-base.function` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'll connect it directly to our \"Create Example Data\" node, flowing the data from `main` to `main`. Let's call this new node \"Make Binary.\"\n\nInside this \"Make Binary\" node, the `functionCode` is where the magic happens for the conversion. Looking at the provided solution, it's `items[0].binary = { data: { data: new Buffer(JSON.stringify(items[0].json, null, 2)).toString('base64') } }; return items;`. Let's break that down.\nFirst, `JSON.stringify(items[0].json, null, 2)`: this takes our JSON object that we created in the previous node and converts it into a JSON string. The `null, 2` part is a nice touch, it pretty-prints the JSON with 2-space indentation, which makes the output file more readable.\nThen, `new Buffer(...)`: This takes the JSON string and converts it into a Node.js Buffer object. Buffers are used to represent binary data.\nFinally, `.toString('base64')`: The `Buffer` object is then converted into a Base64 encoded string. n8n expects binary data in a specific structure when it's passed between nodes for file operations: it needs to be inside an object under a `binary` property, and within that, nested under a `data` property, and the actual Base64 encoded content is under another `data` property. So, `items[0].binary = { data: { data: ... } }` is the standard n8n format for attaching binary data to an item. This structure ensures that subsequent nodes, like file writing nodes, correctly recognize and process the binary content. We then, of course, `return items;` to pass this newly binary-attached item along.\n\nFinally, the user wants to \"save it to a file named `test.json`.\" For saving data to a file, especially binary data (which our previous step just created), n8n has a dedicated node: the **Write Binary File** node. This is precisely what we need.\n\nI'll add the **Write Binary File** node with `type: n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'll connect the \"Make Binary\" node's `main` output to this new \"Write Binary File\" node's `main` input.\n\nFor the configuration of the \"Write Binary File\" node, it's quite straightforward. It has a `fileName` parameter, and the user specified `test.json`. So, I'll set the `fileName` to `test.json`. There are other options like `fileFormat` or `destination` (which could be local or cloud storage, depending on how the node is configured or what integrations are active), but for a simple local file write, just the filename is sufficient. The node will automatically pick up the binary data that we attached to `items[0].binary` in the previous step and write it to the specified file.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It starts with data generation, transforms it into the specific binary format n8n expects, and then saves it to a file." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object for a new, inactive workflow named \"My workflow 2\", including specific IDs and current timestamps. Ensure it has empty arrays for `nodes` and `tags`, empty objects for `connections` and `pinData`, and set `settings.executionOrder` to 'v1', `meta.templateCredsSetupCompleted` to `true`, `triggerCount` to `0`, and `staticData` to `null`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow 2\", \"nodes\": [], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start conceptualizing this new workflow. The request is to create a brand-new, inactive workflow named \"My workflow 2.\" This tells me it will be a foundational definition, likely without any actual operational logic within it just yet.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a unique identifier. Looking at the provided structure, I see an `id` and a `versionId`. These are crucial for the system to manage and track the workflow. So, I'll assign the given `id` as \"6gQ7Djq2R2asp6Bu\" and the `versionId` as \"80589414-fc32-4cd8-a62a-e1c5b61ed6a3\". These IDs will essentially be its fingerprint in the system.\n\nNext, the name. The prompt is very clear: \"My workflow 2\". This will be the human-readable label for the workflow. Along with the `name`, there's also a `safeName`. Typically, this is a version of the name that's safe for file systems or URLs, often lowercased or hyphenated. In this case, \"My workflow 2\" is directly used for `safeName`, which indicates it's already considered safe enough for internal system use.\n\nThe prompt also states that the workflow should be `inactive`. This is important. If I set `active: true` by mistake, the workflow could potentially start running if it had a trigger, which we don't want for an initial, empty setup. So, I'll ensure `active` is set to `false`.\n\nFor timestamps, `createdAt` and `updatedAt` are essential. Since this is a new workflow being defined, these timestamps should reflect the moment of its creation. The provided JSON uses \"2025-04-28T06:29:03.694Z\" for both, implying it's just been created and hasn't undergone any updates yet. I'll use those exact values.\n\nNow, let's think about the actual content of the workflow. The prompt specifies empty arrays for `nodes` and `tags`, and empty objects for `connections` and `pinData`. This confirms my initial thought: this is a barebones definition.\n\n* **Nodes**: The `nodes` array is where all the processing steps, the \"brains\" of the workflow, would reside. Since the prompt states an empty array `[]`, there are no nodes to consider. I'm not adding any \"Trigger\" type nodes or \"Function\" type nodes or anything like that. It's just an empty container, awaiting future design. If I were to add a node, I'd first pick its `type` (e.g., `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`) and its `typeVersion` (e.g., `1`), and then configure its properties. But for now, it's just `[]`.\n\n* **Connections**: The `connections` object describes how those `nodes` would be linked together, dictating the flow of data. With no `nodes`, there can be no `connections`. So, an empty object `{}` here is perfectly logical.\n\n* **Tags**: `tags` are used for categorization, making it easier to organize and find workflows in a larger system. The prompt requires an empty array `[]`, so no tags are assigned right now. This is common for a newly created workflow.\n\n* **Pin Data**: `pinData` is for specific UI-related information, like what's currently \"pinned\" or highlighted in the workflow editor. An empty object `{}` means no specific UI elements are pinned.\n\nNext, let's look at the specific settings and metadata required:\n\n* **Settings**: The `settings` object holds global configurations for how the workflow operates. The prompt explicitly asks for `settings.executionOrder` to be 'v1'. This setting likely dictates the internal engine version or the general order in which nodes are processed within the workflow. Setting it to 'v1' is a direct instruction.\n\n* **Static Data**: `staticData` is for data that might persist across executions but isn't part of the dynamic input or output of nodes. The prompt specifies `staticData: null`. This means there's no persistent, static data needed for this workflow at this stage.\n\n* **Meta**: The `meta` object is for additional, often non-functional, metadata about the workflow. Here, `meta.templateCredsSetupCompleted` is set to `true`. This flag often indicates whether required credentials for a workflow (especially if it originated from a template) have been successfully configured by the user. Setting it to `true` fulfills the prompt's requirement, implying that if there were any template-related credentials, they are considered set up.\n\n* **Trigger Count**: Finally, `triggerCount`. This is a counter for how many times the workflow has been executed. For a brand new, inactive workflow, it makes perfect sense to start this at `0`.\n\nSo, putting it all together, I've constructed a basic, unpopulated workflow definition that perfectly matches all the constraints and requirements given in the prompt. It's ready to be populated with nodes and connections later, but its core identity and initial state are fully defined." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers when a Netlify deploy fails for any site. It should then send a detailed message to the 'general' Slack channel, including the site name, error message, and a direct link to the failed deploy on Netlify.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"event\": \"deployFailed\", \"siteId\": \"ab52947e-a696-4498-a5a1-fae7fbe30c84\"}, \"name\": \"Netlify Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.netlifyTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"=\\ud83d\\udea8 Deploy Failed \\ud83d\\udea8\\nDeploy for the site {{$json[\\\"name\\\"]}} failed.\\nError Message: {{$json[\\\"error_message\\\"]}}\\nYou can find more information here: https:\/\/app.netlify.com\/sites\/{{$json[\\\"name\\\"]}}\/deploys\/{{$json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\", \"channel\": \"general\", \"attachments\": [], \"otherOptions\": {}}, \"name\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.slack\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Netlify Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. My goal is to catch Netlify deploy failures and blast out a clear message to Slack.\n\nFirst things first, I need something that *listens* for that Netlify event. Since the prompt is about reacting to a Netlify deploy failure, the most logical starting point, and indeed the only way to kick off this kind of workflow, is a **Trigger** node specifically designed for Netlify.\n\nSo, I'll start by adding a **Netlify Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.netlifyTrigger`, and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it sets up a webhook that Netlify can call directly when certain events occur. It eliminates the need for polling or complex API interactions just to detect a state change.\n\nNow, how to configure this trigger? The user prompt states \"when a Netlify deploy fails\". This maps directly to the `event` parameter within the Netlify Trigger node. So, I'll set the `event` to `deployFailed`. This ensures the workflow only activates when a deploy actually fails, not on success or other events.\n\nNext, I see a `siteId` parameter set to a specific ID: `ab52947e-a696-4498-a5a1-fae7fbe30c84`. This is interesting because the user prompt says \"for any site\". If I were building purely from the prompt, I might initially look for an \"all sites\" option or leave this parameter blank if that's how the node's UI for \"any site\" worked. However, given this JSON, it implies this particular workflow is configured to listen *only* for failures from this *specific* Netlify site. So, for *this* workflow, it's configured to be site-specific rather than global. The `webhookId` itself is an internal identifier that n8n generates when the workflow is activated to manage the unique webhook URL Netlify will hit.\n\nLastly, for the Netlify Trigger, it needs credentials to authenticate with Netlify so it can properly set up and receive data from the webhook. This is handled by a `Netlify account` credential, which would contain the necessary API key or access token.\n\nOnce the Netlify Trigger fires, it's going to output a bunch of data about the failed deploy \u2013 the site name, the error message, the deploy ID, and so on. This data is exactly what I need for the next step.\n\nThe next step is to send a message to Slack. For that, I'll need a **Slack** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.slack`, and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is the go-to for any Slack interaction, making it straightforward to post messages.\n\nI'll connect the `Netlify Trigger`'s main output to the `Slack` node's main input. This means all the data that the Netlify trigger receives will be passed directly to the Slack node, ready for use.\n\nNow, let's configure the Slack message. The prompt specifically asks for a detailed message including the site name, error message, and a direct link to the failed deploy.\n\nFirst, the channel: The prompt says \"to the 'general' Slack channel.\" So, the `channel` parameter for the Slack node will be set to `general`. Simple enough.\n\nThen comes the message `text`. This is where I'll use expressions to pull in the dynamic data from the Netlify webhook payload.\nI'll construct a descriptive message:\n\"Fatal error Deploy Failed\" (with some emojis for visual impact: `\\ud83d\\udea8`)\n\"Deploy for the site {{$json[\"name\"]}} failed.\" \u2013 Here, `{{$json[\"name\"]}}` will grab the site's name directly from the data provided by the Netlify Trigger node.\n\"Error Message: {{$json[\"error_message\"]}}\" \u2013 Similarly, `{{$json[\"error_message\"]}}` will insert the specific error message Netlify provides.\n\"You can find more information here: https:\/\/app.netlify.com\/sites\/{{$json[\"name\"]}}\/deploys\/{{$json[\"id\"]}}\" \u2013 This is a clever one. It constructs the direct link to the failed deploy. It uses the `name` of the site again, and also `{{$json[\"id\"]}}` which refers to the unique deploy ID, both of which are expected to be present in the data received from the Netlify webhook.\n\nThe `attachments` and `otherOptions` parameters are empty lists or objects, indicating no additional complex Slack features like file attachments or advanced message formatting are being used beyond the main `text` field. This keeps the message straightforward.\n\nFinally, just like the Netlify Trigger, the Slack node needs credentials to connect to Slack and post messages. This is specified by `slackApi` credentials, which would hold the necessary Slack bot token or OAuth configuration.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow is designed to listen for a specific Netlify deploy failure, extract key information, and then format and send that information as a detailed message to the 'general' Slack channel." } { "prompt": "Generate an N8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger named \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\". Connect this to a DebugHelper node, named \"DebugHelper\", which is configured to generate 100 items of random data using a seed of 0.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [780, 500]}, {\"parameters\": {\"category\": \"randomData\", \"randomDataSeed\": \"0\", \"randomDataCount\": 100}, \"name\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1000, 500]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants something that kicks off manually and then generates some test data.\n\nThe first thing I always think about when starting a new workflow is how it's going to be initiated. The prompt explicitly says, \"starts with a manual trigger named 'When clicking 'Test workflow'\". This is straightforward. I'll need a trigger node that allows me to manually run the workflow. Looking at the available nodes in n8n, the \"Manual Trigger\" node is the perfect fit for this. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is 1. This node typically doesn't require any specific configuration parameters, as its purpose is simply to start the workflow when a user clicks a button. So, I'll place that down first, and I'll make sure its name is set exactly as requested: \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\". This is crucial for clarity, especially if multiple manual triggers might exist in a complex workflow.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions connecting this trigger to a \"DebugHelper node, named 'DebugHelper', which is configured to generate 100 items of random data using a seed of 0.\" This tells me exactly what the next step in the flow should be and what type of node to use. The `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper` node, with `typeVersion` 1, is specifically designed for testing, debugging, and, very conveniently, generating dummy data. It's a great choice here because it can simulate incoming data without needing to connect to an external API or database, which is perfect for development and testing.\n\nNow, I need to connect these two nodes. The manual trigger needs to pass its single execution item, which signals the start of the workflow, to the DebugHelper. So, I'll draw a connection from the \"main\" output of the \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\" node to the \"main\" input of the \"DebugHelper\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, it immediately initiates the DebugHelper.\n\nFinally, let's configure the \"DebugHelper\" node. The prompt specifies two key things: \"generate 100 items of random data using a seed of 0\". So, I'll go into the parameters for this node. The DebugHelper has a \"Category\" setting. To generate random data, I'll need to select \"randomData\" from the category options. Once \"randomData\" is selected, new fields appear. I'll then set the `randomDataCount` parameter to 100, as requested, to ensure it generates exactly that many items. And, critically, the prompt asks for a `randomDataSeed` of 0. This is important because using a specific seed ensures that if I run this workflow multiple times with the same seed, the \"random\" data generated will actually be the same each time, making tests repeatable and predictable. This is incredibly useful for debugging. So, I'll input '0' into the `randomDataSeed` parameter. And of course, I'll ensure the node's name is set to \"DebugHelper\" to match the prompt.\n\nThat seems to cover everything. The manual trigger initiates, passes control to the DebugHelper, which then generates the specified random data for subsequent nodes to process, if there were any. For this workflow, it's a perfect self-contained test data generator." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Get Weather\" that, when triggered, uses an \"Edit Fields\" node to set a field called \"response\" with the value \"Weather is sunny\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get Weather\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [560, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"Weather is sunny\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, 340]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants a simple workflow named \"Get Weather\" that, when triggered, sets a specific field with a hardcoded weather value. Sounds like a straightforward two-node process.\n\nFirst things first, I need to establish the entry point for this workflow. Since the prompt says \"when triggered,\" the most natural starting point for a workflow that doesn't rely on external events (like a webhook or a schedule) is an `Execute Workflow Trigger` node. This allows for manual execution directly within the n8n interface or via an API call from another workflow. So, I'll place an `Execute Workflow Trigger` node. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it simply starts the workflow chain. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters in this scenario, as its default behavior of triggering is exactly what's needed.\n\nNow that we have the workflow's trigger set up, the next step, according to the prompt, is to use an \"Edit Fields\" node to set a field called \"response\" with the value \"Weather is sunny.\" For this, the `Set` node is the ideal choice in n8n. It's incredibly versatile for manipulating the data that flows through a workflow, allowing you to add, remove, or modify fields. In the JSON, I see this node is named \"Edit Fields\" and its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion` `3.4`. This `Set` node will come directly after our trigger node.\n\nThe `Execute Workflow Trigger` node will output a single item, typically an empty JSON object, which then needs to flow into our \"Edit Fields\" node. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the `Execute Workflow Trigger` to the `main` input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This ensures that when the workflow runs, the control and any initial data (even if minimal) are passed along.\n\nNow, let's configure the \"Edit Fields\" node. The prompt specifies setting a field named \"response\" with the value \"Weather is sunny.\" Within the `Set` node's parameters, there's an `assignments` array. I'll add an assignment entry here. I need to make sure the `name` property for this assignment is set to \"response.\" The `value` property will be \"Weather is sunny.\" And, importantly, since \"Weather is sunny\" is plain text, the `type` property for this assignment should be `string`. The JSON confirms this exact configuration: `{\"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"Weather is sunny\", \"type\": \"string\"}`. This will effectively create a new field named \"response\" on the item(s) passing through this node, populating it with the specified string. The `options` parameter for the `Set` node is empty in the JSON, which means we don't need any special options like 'Keep Only Set' or 'Forward Incoming Data'. We just want to add this field to the existing data.\n\nSo, to recap the flow: the `Execute Workflow Trigger` starts, passes an empty item (or whatever its default output is) to the `Edit Fields` (`Set`) node. The `Edit Fields` node then takes that incoming item and adds a new field called \"response\" with the static value \"Weather is sunny\" to it. That resulting item is then passed out of the `Edit Fields` node, completing the workflow's stated purpose. This seems to perfectly fulfill the user's requirements with a clean and simple structure." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"Telegram Weather Workflow\" that triggers on a Telegram message, fetches the current weather for Berlin, Germany from OpenWeatherMap, and then sends a Telegram message back to the user with the weather description, temperature, and \"feels like\" temperature.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Telegram Weather Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"updates\": [\"message\"]}, \"name\": \"Telegram Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegramTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [270, 220]}, {\"parameters\": {\"cityName\": \"berlin,de\"}, \"name\": \"OpenWeatherMap\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [480, 220]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"=Right now, we have {{$node[\\\"OpenWeatherMap\\\"].json[\\\"weather\\\"][0][\\\"description\\\"]}}.

When I approach building a workflow like this, I always start by thinking about the trigger \u2013 what kicks off the whole process?\n\nThe user prompt clearly states \"triggers on a Telegram message.\" So, naturally, the very first node I need is going to be something that listens for those Telegram messages. Looking at the available nodes, the `n8n-nodes-base.telegramTrigger` node is the perfect fit. It's designed specifically for this purpose. I'll add that one first. I'd label it something descriptive like \"Telegram Trigger\" so it's clear what it does at a glance.\n\nNow, how should this \"Telegram Trigger\" node be configured? The JSON tells me its `typeVersion` is 1. The key parameter here is `updates`, which is set to `[\"message\"]`. This means the trigger will specifically activate when it receives a new *message* in Telegram, which is exactly what we want for a user initiating a weather request. Of course, this node will also require a Telegram API credential to connect to the Telegram bot API. I'd make sure that's properly configured with the necessary token so n8n can communicate with Telegram.\n\nOnce a message is received, what's next? The prompt says \"fetches the current weather for Berlin, Germany from OpenWeatherMap.\" This tells me I'll need a node that can interact with the OpenWeatherMap API. Browsing through the n8n nodes, the `n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap` node is clearly the go-to choice. It's purpose-built for querying weather data. I'll connect this node directly after the \"Telegram Trigger\" node, because the weather fetch should happen immediately after the trigger fires. So, the output from \"Telegram Trigger\" will flow into \"OpenWeatherMap.\"\n\nFor the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node, its `typeVersion` is also 1. The crucial configuration here is the `cityName` parameter, which is explicitly set to `\"berlin,de\"`. This ensures we're getting the weather for the correct location as specified in the prompt. If the prompt had asked for a dynamic city based on the user's input, I would have used an expression here to pull the city name from the incoming Telegram message, but for this workflow, it's fixed. This node, like the Telegram trigger, will also need its own credential \u2013 an OpenWeatherMap API key \u2013 to authenticate with their service.\n\nAfter fetching the weather data, the final step is to \"send a Telegram message back to the user with the weather description, temperature, and 'feels like' temperature.\" This means I'll need another Telegram node, but this time not a trigger, but an action node that *sends* messages. The `n8n-nodes-base.telegram` node is what I need for sending messages. I'll connect the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node's output to this \"Telegram\" node. This ensures that the weather data fetched by OpenWeatherMap is available for use when constructing the outgoing message.\n\nNow, let's configure this final \"Telegram\" node. It's `typeVersion` 1. There are two main parameters here that are absolutely vital. First, the `chatId`. We need to send the message back to the user who initiated the request. The `telegramTrigger` node captures the `chatId` of the incoming message. So, for `chatId`, I'll use an expression: `={{$node[\"Telegram Trigger\"].json[\"message\"][\"chat\"][\"id\"]}}`. This dynamic expression ensures the message goes back to the correct Telegram chat.\n\nSecond, the `text` of the message. This is where we combine static text with dynamic weather information retrieved from the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node. The prompt asks for \"weather description, temperature, and 'feels like' temperature.\" The JSON uses a great expression for this:\n`=Right now, we have {{$node[\"OpenWeatherMap\"].json[\"weather\"][0][\"description\"]}}. The temperature is {{$node[\"OpenWeatherMap\"].json[\"main\"][\"temp\"]}}\\u00b0C but it really feels like {{$node[\"OpenWeatherMap\"].json[\"main\"][\"feels_like\"]}}\\u00b0C \\ud83d\\ude42`\n\nThis expression directly references the output of the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node. It specifically pulls:\n- `weather[0][\"description\"]`: This is typically where the text description (like \"clear sky\" or \"few clouds\") is located within the `weather` array.\n- `main[\"temp\"]`: The current temperature.\n- `main[\"feels_like\"]`: The \"feels like\" temperature.\nIt's important to know the structure of the data coming out of the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node to correctly reference these paths. The `\\u00b0C` is for the degree Celsius symbol, and `\\ud83d\\ude42` is a smiley emoji to make the message a bit friendlier. This node will also use the same Telegram API credential as the trigger node.\n\nAnd that completes the flow. It starts with a Telegram message, fetches specific weather data, and then replies with a formatted message containing that data back to the original sender. The connections ensure a linear flow: Trigger -> Fetch Weather -> Send Response." } { "prompt": "Generate a sub-workflow named 'sub-crud_actions' that is triggered by another workflow, converts the incoming data to a JSON file, and then saves it to `\/tmp\/n8n-crud_output.json`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"sub-crud_actions\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [340, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"write\", \"fileName\": \"\/tmp\/n8n-crud_output.json\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Read\/Write Files from Disk\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.readWriteFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [760, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"toJson\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Convert to File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.convertToFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [560, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Convert to File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Convert to File\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Read\/Write Files from Disk\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start designing this workflow step by step, imagining I'm building it from scratch based on the requirements.\n\nThe first thing that jumps out from the prompt is that this needs to be a \"sub-workflow\" that is \"triggered by another workflow.\" This immediately tells me what my starting point needs to be. For a workflow to be callable or triggered by another n8n workflow, the best node to use is the `Execute Workflow Trigger` node. It's designed specifically for this purpose, acting as an entry point for data coming from another execution.\n\nSo, I'd add the `Execute Workflow Trigger` node first. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it simply waits to be invoked by another workflow's `Execute Workflow` node, allowing data to be passed into it. Its parameters are empty, which is exactly what I'd expect; it doesn't need any specific configuration other than existing to receive data. I'd place it roughly at the beginning of my workflow layout, say, at coordinates `[340, 300]` to give myself space for subsequent nodes.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow needs to \"convert the incoming data to a JSON file.\" So, once the `Execute Workflow Trigger` receives the data, the very next step is to transform that data into a file format, specifically JSON. This sounds like a job for a conversion node. I'd look for something that takes generic data and can output it as a file. The `Convert to File` node comes to mind. Checking the JSON, indeed, there's a `Convert to File` node with `type` `n8n-nodes-base.convertToFile` and `typeVersion` `1.1`. This seems like the right tool for the job.\n\nI'd connect the `Execute Workflow Trigger`'s main output to the `Convert to File`'s main input. The data received by the trigger will now flow directly into this conversion node. For its configuration, the prompt specifically mentions \"to a JSON file,\" so I'd make sure the `operation` parameter is set to `\"toJson\"`. This tells the node exactly how to format the incoming data. The `options` are empty, which means no special conversion options are needed, just a straightforward JSON output. I'd position this node to the right of the trigger, maybe at `[560, 300]`, keeping a logical flow.\n\nFinally, the prompt states, \"and then saves it to `\/tmp\/n8n-crud_output.json`.\" So, after the data has been converted into a JSON file format by the previous node, the last step is to write that file to the specified location on disk. For this, I'd need a node that handles file system operations. The `Read\/Write Files from Disk` node is the standard choice for this. The JSON confirms this, showing a node with `type` `n8n-nodes-base.readWriteFile` and `typeVersion` `1`.\n\nI'd connect the main output of the `Convert to File` node to the main input of this `Read\/Write Files from Disk` node. The file content generated by the `Convert to File` node will now be passed along to be saved. Looking at its parameters, I'd set the `operation` to `\"write\"` because I want to save a file, not read one. Crucially, the `fileName` parameter needs to be set to the exact path specified in the prompt: `\/tmp\/n8n-crud_output.json`. This ensures the file is saved in the correct location and with the correct name. The `options` are empty, indicating no special write options are needed. I'd place this node to the right of the `Convert to File` node, perhaps at `[760, 300]`, completing the linear flow of the workflow.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the requirements. It starts with receiving data, converts it into a JSON file format, and then writes that file to disk." } { "prompt": "Design a workflow that manually starts, then retrieves 'Rechnung.jpg' from the 'textract-demodata' AWS S3 bucket, and processes it using AWS Textract, with both AWS nodes sharing the 'AWS account' credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"AWS Textract\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.awsTextract\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileKey\": \"Rechnung.jpg\", \"bucketName\": \"textract-demodata\"}, \"name\": \"AWS S3\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.awsS3\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"AWS S3\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AWS Textract\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AWS S3\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's plan this workflow step by step, imagining I'm building it from scratch based on the user's request.\n\nFirst, I need to look at the core requirements: \"manually starts,\" \"retrieves 'Rechnung.jpg' from 'textract-demodata' AWS S3 bucket,\" and \"processes it using AWS Textract,\" with shared credentials.\n\nOkay, so the very first thing I need is a way to kick off this workflow. The prompt says \"manually starts.\" This immediately tells me I need a trigger node that can be initiated by a user click. The `manualTrigger` node is perfect for this. So, I'll start by adding an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node with `typeVersion: 1`. Its parameters are usually empty as its sole purpose is to start the flow when executed. I'll name it something clear, like \"On clicking 'execute'\".\n\nNext, the prompt says \"retrieves 'Rechnung.jpg' from the 'textract-demodata' AWS S3 bucket.\" This clearly indicates an interaction with AWS S3. So, the next node in the sequence should be an AWS S3 node. I'll pick `n8n-nodes-base.awsS3` and make sure it's `typeVersion: 1`. I'll connect it directly to the output of my \"On clicking 'execute'\" node, because as soon as the workflow starts, the first action is to get that file.\n\nNow, how do I configure this AWS S3 node? The prompt gives me the specifics:\n* It needs to retrieve a file, so the operation for this node would implicitly be \"Get\".\n* The `bucketName` parameter must be set to \"textract-demodata\".\n* The `fileKey` parameter must be set to \"Rechnung.jpg\" to specify the exact file within that bucket.\n* Crucially, the prompt states that \"both AWS nodes sharing the 'AWS account' credentials.\" So, I'll need to configure this S3 node to use the specified AWS credentials. I see in the JSON it's linked to a credential with `id: \"12\"` and `name: \"AWS account\"`. This ensures it has the necessary permissions to access S3.\n\nFinally, the prompt says, \"processes it using AWS Textract.\" So, after the S3 node successfully retrieves the image file, that file needs to be sent to Textract. This means the next node will be an AWS Textract node. I'll use `n8n-nodes-base.awsTextract` with `typeVersion: 1`. I'll connect the output of the `AWS S3` node directly to the input of this `AWS Textract` node. This way, the image data retrieved by S3 will be automatically passed along for processing.\n\nFor the AWS Textract node, its `parameters` are empty, meaning it will likely use a default operation, or intelligently adapt based on the incoming data format (which will be an image in this case). The critical part is that it receives the binary data of the image from the S3 node.\n\nAnd just like with the S3 node, the prompt specifies \"both AWS nodes sharing the 'AWS account' credentials.\" So, this `AWS Textract` node also needs to be configured with the same shared AWS credentials identified as `id: \"12\"` and `name: \"AWS account\"`. This grants it the authorization to communicate with the AWS Textract service.\n\nSo, to recap the flow: manual trigger starts it, then the S3 node fetches the image file using its configured bucket and file key, passing that image data to the Textract node, which then processes it. Both AWS nodes correctly use the same AWS account credentials for authentication. This seems to fulfill all the requirements of the prompt very well." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Test workflow 2\" that starts with a manual trigger.

The request is quite specific: \"Create an n8n workflow named \"Test workflow 2\" that starts with a manual trigger. This trigger should connect to a code node which adds a new property `myNewField` with a value of `1` to the JSON of each incoming item, and include the tags \"other-tag-1\" and \"other-tag-2\".\"\n\nFirst, I'd think about the overall structure. It needs a name, \"Test workflow 2\", and some tags, \"other-tag-1\" and \"other-tag-2\". These are typically set at the workflow level, not tied to any specific node, so I'll keep that in mind for the workflow's metadata.\n\nNow, let's break down the execution flow. The prompt says it \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This is the first and most crucial piece. For n8n, a manual trigger is represented by the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. It's perfect for when someone needs to explicitly kick off a workflow, perhaps for testing or for a task that isn't event-driven. I'd place this node down first. Looking at the JSON, its `id` is \"624e0991-5dac-468b-b872-a9d35cb2c7d1\", its `name` is \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is the default name, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. Its `parameters` are empty, which is expected for this trigger as it doesn't usually require any specific configuration.\n\nNext, the prompt says, \"This trigger should connect to a code node which adds a new property `myNewField` with a value of `1` to the JSON of each incoming item.\" This clearly points to the need for a `Code` node. The `n8n-nodes-base.code` node type is incredibly flexible because it allows you to write custom JavaScript to manipulate data, perform calculations, or even call external APIs if needed. In this case, we're just transforming the incoming data.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `manualTrigger` node's main output to the `Code` node's main input. The `connections` object in the JSON confirms this: \"On clicking 'execute'\"'s `main` output connects to \"Code\"'s `main` input at index `0`. This means any data emitted by the trigger (which for a manual trigger without any pre-set data usually means an empty item or a single empty item) will flow into the `Code` node.\n\nNow, let's configure the `Code` node itself. Its `id` is \"48823b3a-ec82-4a05-84b8-24ac2747e648\", `name` is \"Code\", and `typeVersion` is `1`. The core of this node is its `jsCode` parameter. The requirement is to \"add a new property `myNewField` with a value of `1` to the JSON of each incoming item.\"\n\nThe provided code snippet does exactly that:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nI'd reason through this code:\n* `for (const item of $input.all())`: This is a standard n8n pattern for processing all incoming items. `$input.all()` gives you an array of all items passed to the node. Iterating over them ensures that if the manual trigger were to, for example, somehow receive multiple items (though unlikely by default), or if this workflow were part of a larger one processing many items, each one would be handled.\n* `item.json.myNewField = 1;`: This is the crucial line. For each `item` in the input, it accesses its `json` property (which holds the actual data payload) and then adds a new key-value pair: `myNewField` with a value of `1`. This directly fulfills the requirement.\n* `return $input.all();`: After modifying the items, it's essential to return them. If you don't return anything, the workflow would effectively stop here. By returning `$input.all()`, the modified items are passed on to any subsequent nodes in the workflow.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the functional requirements of the workflow. The workflow name and tags (\"Test workflow 2\", \"other-tag-1\", \"other-tag-2\") would be configured in the workflow's settings or metadata, as seen at the top level of the JSON. The `active: false` simply means it's not currently active or listening for triggers, which is a default state for a newly created workflow before it's explicitly activated." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named 'Test workflow 1' with tags 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'.

The request is pretty clear: we need to create an inactive workflow called 'Test workflow 1', add a couple of tags to it, and then set up a simple two-node flow. It needs to begin with a manual trigger and then connect to a Code node that modifies the incoming data.\n\nFirst off, when I'm setting up a new workflow, I always start with the basic metadata. The prompt specifies the name as 'Test workflow 1', so that's the first thing I'd set. And it's critical that this workflow starts as *inactive*. This means when it's imported or created, it won't be running automatically, which is a good practice for new workflows until they're fully tested. So, I'll ensure the `active` property is set to `false`.\n\nNext, the prompt asks for specific tags: 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'. Tags are super useful for organization, especially as your n8n instance grows, making it easier to find and manage workflows. I'll make sure these are included in the `tags` array for the workflow.\n\nNow, let's get into the actual flow of the workflow. The user wants it to start with a manual trigger. This is straightforward. The most common and direct way to achieve this is by using the **Manual Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and typically, `typeVersion` is `1` for basic trigger nodes like this. I'd place it as the very first node in the workflow, usually on the left side of the canvas. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to start the workflow execution when someone clicks \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n UI, or when it's triggered via its test URL during development. It doesn't require any specific parameters to function, so its `parameters` object will just be empty. I'd probably give it a default name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" to clearly indicate its role.\n\nOnce the manual trigger fires, it will pass an empty item, or perhaps a single empty item, to the next node. The prompt then specifies that this trigger should connect to a Code node. The purpose of this **Code** node is to manipulate the data \u2013 specifically, to add a `myNewField` property with a value of `1` to the JSON of each input item.\n\nThe **Code** node is incredibly versatile for custom data manipulation using JavaScript. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.code`, and `typeVersion` is typically `1`. This node is ideal for what the user wants to do because it allows direct access to the incoming data (`$input`) and gives us the flexibility to transform it programmatically.\n\nFor the connection, the output of the Manual Trigger node needs to feed directly into the input of the Code node. This is a standard 'main' connection. The data flow will be from the `main` output of the `On clicking 'execute'` node to the `main` input of the `Code` node.\n\nNow, let's configure the Code node itself. The core of this node is its `jsCode` parameter. We need to write a small JavaScript snippet that iterates over all the input items and adds the desired property. The n8n Code node provides a global variable `$input` which contains all the incoming items. We can access them using `$input.all()`. So, the code would loop through `for (const item of $input.all())`. Inside the loop, for each `item`, we want to modify its `json` property. So, `item.json.myNewField = 1;` will correctly add the `myNewField` with a value of `1`. Finally, for the Code node to pass the modified data along, we need to return the processed items, so `return $input.all();` is the correct way to send the modified items to any subsequent nodes.\n\nAfter the Code node has done its work, the workflow requirements don't specify any further actions. So, the Code node's output will simply be an open connection, meaning the workflow effectively ends there for this particular task. This is a common pattern for workflows that perform data transformation as their final step. I wouldn't connect the Code node to anything else in this scenario, as the prompt doesn't specify it." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow starting with a manual trigger named \"When clicking \"Test workflow\"\", which connects to a 'Switch' node.

The first thing I always consider when building a workflow is how it's going to be triggered. The user prompt explicitly states it should start with a manual trigger named \"When clicking \"Test workflow\"\".\n\nSo, right off the bat, the very first node I'll place on the canvas will be a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it allows someone to manually initiate the workflow with a click, which aligns exactly with the requirement for \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\". It doesn't require any specific configuration other than its name, which is already set to \"When clicking \"Test workflow\"\" in the provided structure. This is foundational for any workflow that isn't running on a schedule or reacting to an external event; it's our starting point for testing and ad-hoc runs.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the prompt tells us it \"connects to a 'Switch' node\". So, my next logical step is to bring in a **Switch** node. I'll connect the main output of my \"When clicking \"Test workflow\"\" trigger to the main input of this new Switch node. Looking at the JSON, this node has the type `n8n-nodes-base.switch` and its `typeVersion` is `3`. A Switch node is incredibly useful for creating conditional logic in a workflow, allowing different paths to be taken based on specific criteria or input data. It's like a branching point in our workflow.\n\nThe user prompt specifies that the Switch node should \"have three branches, with only the third branch leading to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields'.\" This is where the configuration of the Switch node becomes important, particularly its outputs. The `parameters.rules.values` array in the JSON shows three empty or partially defined rule objects, which naturally creates three output branches for the node. However, the most critical part is the `connections` property for the Switch node. It shows `{\"main\": [null, null, [{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This tells me definitively that:\n* The first output branch (index `0`) of the Switch node is `null`, meaning it's not connected to anything.\n* The second output branch (index `1`) is also `null`, meaning it's likewise not connected.\n* But the third output branch (index `2`) *is* connected. It leads to a node named \"Edit Fields\".\n\nSo, I've got my three branches configured, even if the actual conditions for those branches aren't fully defined yet in the `parameters` (they just show empty conditions for now). The key here is the *connections*, which dictate the path.\n\nFinally, the third branch of the Switch node needs to lead to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields'. So, the last node I'll add to this workflow is a **Set** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is `3.3`. I'll draw a connection from the third output of the \"Switch\" node to the main input of this \"Edit Fields\" node. A Set node is commonly used to add, remove, or modify fields on incoming data. In this case, the `parameters.options` property is empty, indicating that it's just a placeholder for now, ready to be configured to manipulate data later. It doesn't have any specific fields or values being set at this moment, but its purpose is clearly to \"edit fields\" as per its name. It's a very flexible node for data transformation.\n\nSo, to recap, we have a clear linear flow from a manual trigger, which then hits a conditional switch. Out of the three possible paths from that switch, only the third one is active and leads to a node designed to modify data. The other two paths are left unconnected, as per the requirement. This seems to fulfill all the prompt's specifications for the workflow structure." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFileVocabulary' that starts with a webhook, reads the content from the Google Doc at `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1kizIBcUwfvWyyrIGqXLbuiMvdWLarCFXHcVpCRgx-Bs\/edit`, and responds to the initial webhook with the extracted text content.

The main goal here is to create an n8n workflow that gets triggered by a webhook, reads content from a specified Google Doc, and then sends that content back as a response to the original webhook. We also need to make sure it's named correctly and has the right tags.\n\nFirst things first, the overall workflow needs a name: \"GetOnboardingFileVocabulary\". And for organizational purposes, it will also need a few tags: \"Day0\", \"PromptEngineer\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding\". I'll keep these in mind for the workflow's global settings.\n\nNow, let's think about the sequence of operations.\n\nThe prompt states the workflow \"starts with a webhook\". So, the very first node we'll need is something that can listen for incoming HTTP requests. For this, the `Webhook` node is the perfect choice. Looking at the provided JSON, it's an `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is the standard way to kick off a workflow based on an external trigger.\n\nFor the `Webhook` node's parameters, we'll need to define a unique `path` that callers can use to hit this specific endpoint. More importantly, the `responseMode` parameter needs to be set to `\"responseNode\"`. This is a critical decision because it means this initial `Webhook` node won't immediately send a response. Instead, it will wait for a later node in the workflow to explicitly send a response back to the caller. This allows us to perform operations like reading the Google Doc *before* we construct and send the final response.\n\nOnce the webhook receives a request, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"read the content from the Google Doc\". To achieve this, we'll need a node that can interact with Google Docs. The `Google Docs` node is precisely what we need here. The JSON confirms it's an `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` node, `typeVersion: 2`.\n\nI'll connect the `Google Docs` node directly from the output of our `Webhook` node. This ensures that as soon as the webhook triggers, the workflow proceeds to fetch the document. Inside the `Google Docs` node, the `operation` parameter should be set to `\"get\"`, because we want to retrieve or read content from an existing document. We would then configure the `documentURL` parameter with the specific URL of the Google Doc we want to access. This node will also require appropriate authentication to access Google Drive and Docs. The JSON indicates that `googleDocsOAuth2Api` credentials are used, which is a common and secure way to handle Google service integrations. Once this node executes, it should output the content of the document, typically in a field like `content`.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that the workflow needs to \"respond to the initial webhook with the extracted text content\". Since we configured the initial `Webhook` node to wait for a response node, we now need to add that dedicated response node. The `Respond to Webhook` node is designed for this exact purpose. The JSON shows `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion: 1.1`.\n\nThis `Respond to Webhook` node should be connected from the `Google Docs` node. The data from the Google Docs node, specifically the extracted text content, will be passed to this response node. For its configuration, the `respondWith` parameter will be set to `\"text\"`, indicating that we want to send a plain text response. And for the `responseBody`, this is where we'll use an n8n expression to dynamically insert the content we just read. The expression `={{ $json.content }}` is perfect for this; it tells the node to take the value from the `content` field of the incoming JSON data (which is coming from the `Google Docs` node) and use it as the response body. This will effectively send the Google Doc's content back to the caller of the initial webhook.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow logic: trigger, fetch, respond. The workflow's execution order would be `v1`, as indicated in the settings, which means a standard sequential flow through the connected nodes." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow starting with a \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" manual trigger.

When I'm thinking about building a new n8n workflow, the first thing I always consider is how it's going to be triggered. Every workflow needs a starting point.\n\nLooking at the prompt, it clearly states \"starting with a 'When clicking \"Test workflow\"' manual trigger.\" So, that's my very first step. I'd drag in a trigger node, and specifically, I'd choose the `Manual Trigger` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and in this case, the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it allows me to manually initiate the workflow, which is super useful for testing, debugging, or for workflows that aren't meant to run on a schedule or react to external events. It essentially just sends an empty item to the next node when I click \"Test workflow\" in the n8n editor, which is exactly what's requested.\n\nOnce I have that trigger in place, I need to figure out what comes next. The prompt says \"Connect this to a Switch node.\" So, my immediate thought is to add a `Switch` node right after my `Manual Trigger`. I'd drag in a `Switch` node, which has the type `n8n-nodes-base.switch` and here, the `typeVersion` is `3`. The `Switch` node is incredibly powerful for routing data down different paths based on certain conditions. It's essentially an `if\/else if\/else` statement for my workflow.\n\nNow, I need to connect these two. I'd take the primary output of the `Manual Trigger` node and connect it to the primary input of the `Switch` node. This ensures that when the workflow is triggered, the execution flow, along with any data (even if it's just an empty item from the manual trigger), moves directly into the `Switch` node.\n\nNext up, I need to configure the `Switch` node. The prompt specifies connecting \"the Switch node's third output to a Set node.\" This tells me a few things about the `Switch` node's configuration. It means I'll need at least three outputs configured. Looking at the `parameters` in the JSON for the `Switch` node, I see `rules` with `values` containing three empty rule objects. This confirms that it's set up with three potential branches. The current configuration shows an empty condition for the first rule (`\"conditions\": {\"options\": {\"caseSensitive\": true, \"leftValue\": \"\", \"typeValidation\": \"strict\"}, \"conditions\": [{\"leftValue\": \"\", \"rightValue\": \"\", \"operator\": {\"type\": \"string\", \"operation\": \"equals\"}}], \"combinator\": \"and\"}`). The other two are just empty objects, meaning they probably don't have any specific conditions defined, acting more like default or fallback branches. For this workflow, it seems the focus is on utilizing the third output regardless of specific switch conditions being met. If I were building this from scratch and needed the switch to *do* something, I'd define conditions here based on incoming data \u2013 perhaps checking a specific field's value to decide which path to take. But for this specific instruction, the fact that there are three outputs is what's important.\n\nFinally, the prompt instructs me to \"connect the Switch node's third output to a Set node named 'Edit Fields'.\" So, after the `Switch` node, I'd add a `Set` node. The `Set` node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is `3.3`. A `Set` node is super useful for adding, modifying, or removing fields from incoming items. It's often used to prepare data for a subsequent node or to ensure data consistency. I'd also make sure to name it \"Edit Fields\" as specified, which helps a lot with workflow readability.\n\nThe crucial connection here is from the `Switch` node's third output \u2013 that means `index: 2` since they are 0-indexed \u2013 to the `Edit Fields` `Set` node. So, I'd draw a connection from the `Switch` node's third output (the one furthest to the right or bottom if it's vertical) and link it to the primary input of the \"Edit Fields\" node.\n\nThe `Set` node's parameters show `{\"options\": {}}`. This means it's currently an empty `Set` node \u2013 it's not actually setting any values yet. If I were truly designing this for a real use case, this `Set` node would be where I'd add key-value pairs to transform or augment the data. For example, I might add a field called `status` with a value of `processed` or modify an existing `name` field to be uppercase. But for now, as per the JSON, it's just a placeholder, ready to have fields defined.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the entire workflow as described and represented in the JSON. It's a simple, sequential flow: trigger, conditional routing (even if conditions are not explicitly defined here), and then a data manipulation step." } { "prompt": "Here are a couple of options:\n\n**Option 1 (More descriptive):**\n\"Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a Webhook node. Configure it to listen for POST requests at the path `interia-call`.\"\n\n**Option 2 (More concise):**\n\"Create an n8n workflow JSON with a single Webhook node configured to accept POST requests on the path 'interia-call'.\"", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"httpMethod\": \"POST\", \"path\": \"interia-call\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Right, so, when I approach building a workflow like this from scratch, I first think about what needs to trigger it. The user prompt explicitly states \"starts with a Webhook node\" and also mentions it needs to \"listen for POST requests at the path `interia-call`.\" This immediately tells me my initial and perhaps only component for this particular workflow.\n\nSo, the very first thing I'd do is add a **Webhook node**. This is the standard way to expose an HTTP endpoint in n8n, allowing external services or applications to send data to our workflow and kick it off. It's exactly what's needed when you want an event-driven start.\n\nLooking at the JSON, the node type is clearly defined as `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`. This indicates it's one of n8n's core, built-in nodes designed specifically for receiving HTTP requests. Its `typeVersion` is 2. I'd generally prefer to use the latest stable `typeVersion` available, as it usually incorporates bug fixes, performance improvements, or new features. Version 2 here seems appropriate and stable.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Webhook? The prompt has very specific requirements.\nFirst, it needs to listen for `POST` requests. So, within the Webhook node's parameters, I'd set the `httpMethod` property to `POST`. This ensures that only requests using the POST method will be processed by this webhook; any other method (like GET or PUT) hitting this path would not trigger the workflow. This is crucial for controlling what kind of interactions this workflow responds to.\n\nNext, the `path` is specified as `interia-call`. This is incredibly important because it forms the unique part of the URL that external systems will send requests to. For instance, if my n8n instance is at `https:\/\/my.n8n.instance\/`, then this specific workflow's webhook will be accessible at `https:\/\/my.n8n.instance\/webhook\/interia-call`. Setting this parameter makes the endpoint addressable and distinct from any other webhooks I might have. So, I'd input `interia-call` into the `path` field.\n\nThe `options` parameter is currently empty, which means no advanced settings like response mode (e.g., immediate response, or wait for workflow completion) or authentication are configured. For a simple listening webhook, this is perfectly fine. If I were designing a more complex scenario, I might consider adding authentication like header-based credentials or a query parameter, or perhaps setting the response mode to \"Respond to Webhook\" if the workflow needs to send back data immediately. But for just triggering, the default options usually suffice.\n\nThe node also gets an automatic `name` of \"Webhook,\" which is perfectly descriptive for its function. Its `position` at `[0,0]` just means it's visually placed at the very start of the workflow canvas, which makes sense as it's the trigger. The `id` and `webhookId` are system-generated identifiers that n8n uses internally, so I wouldn't manually set those.\n\nAt this stage, the workflow is complete as per the provided JSON and user prompt. It's a single node workflow. Its sole purpose is to act as an entry point, waiting for an incoming POST request at the specified path. Any data sent in the body of that POST request would then be available as input to any subsequent nodes, but in this case, there are none. So, it simply receives the request and then effectively concludes. There are no connections to make since it's a standalone trigger." } { "prompt": "Here are a few options:\n\n**Option 1 (Concise):**\n\"Create an n8n workflow that uses a manual trigger to create a Zendesk ticket.\"\n\n**Option 2 (Slightly more descriptive):**\n\"Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and creates a new ticket in Zendesk.\"", "json": "{\"name\": \"Create a ticket in Zendesk\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"description\": \"\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Zendesk\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.zendesk\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Zendesk\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. My goal here is straightforward: create a Zendesk ticket. But critically, it needs to be initiated manually.\n\nSo, when I think about how an n8n workflow starts, especially when it's not reacting to an external event like a webhook or a scheduled time, the most obvious choice for a manual kick-off is a trigger node designed specifically for that purpose. I'll need a node that allows a user to just click a button and get things going.\n\nThat brings me directly to the `Manual Trigger` node. This seems perfect for the \"manual trigger\" requirement in the prompt. I'd add this one first because it's the absolute entry point of the workflow. Looking at the JSON, it's identified as `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This version simply provides a basic trigger mechanism; there aren't typically many parameters to configure on it beyond its basic operation, which aligns with the empty `parameters: {}` in the JSON. Its purpose is purely to initiate the workflow run when someone clicks \"Execute Workflow\" or \"Run Workflow\" in the n8n interface.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, what's the next step? The prompt clearly states \"create a Zendesk ticket.\" This immediately tells me I need to interact with the Zendesk API. For that, n8n has a dedicated integration node. I'll search for and add the `Zendesk` node.\n\nNow, how do I connect these two? The `Manual Trigger` doesn't output specific data in this basic setup; it just signals that the workflow should proceed. So, a direct connection from the `Manual Trigger`'s main output to the `Zendesk` node's main input is the standard way to pass the execution flow. This establishes the sequence: trigger, then act on Zendesk. The JSON confirms this connection: `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Zendesk\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This is a very typical flow for simple, linear workflows.\n\nLet's look at the `Zendesk` node itself. It's `type: n8n-nodes-base.zendesk`, and also `typeVersion: 1`. For this node to create a ticket, it needs a few things. First, it needs to know *how* to connect to Zendesk. That's where the credentials come in. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"zendeskApi\": \"\"}`. Here, I'd expect to select a pre-configured Zendesk API credential set, which would contain the necessary authentication details like an API key or username\/password for accessing the Zendesk instance. I would not populate that field directly with values in a workflow design, but ensure the user knows to configure their own secure credentials there.\n\nThen, for the actual ticket creation, I'd look at its parameters. The JSON has `parameters: {\"description\": \"\", \"additionalFields\": {}}`. The `description` field is crucial; this is where the main content of the Zendesk ticket would go. In a real scenario, this would likely be populated dynamically, perhaps from user input gathered by an earlier node, or even just a static message like \"Ticket created via n8n workflow.\" For this initial design, it's left empty, implying it would be filled in during the workflow's actual use or expanded upon. Similarly, `additionalFields` is an object that would allow me to set other properties of the Zendesk ticket, like subject, requester, priority, or custom fields. Again, these are currently empty, but they're placeholders for where I'd enrich the ticket details if needed. For a simple \"create ticket,\" the description is the most fundamental part.\n\nSo, to summarize my thought process for this simple but effective workflow: start with the trigger type requested, connect it to the action node, and ensure the action node has the basic configuration points for credentials and primary data, even if they're initially empty placeholders. This covers the manual initiation and the specific Zendesk action perfectly." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers via a webhook at `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/ConnectingToExternalAPIs`. It should then fetch the content from the Google Docs URL `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1TWjm94G8yRAaUcx7PAjmzsMrRned7yelMBz2COQNJ1s\/view` and respond to the initial webhook with that retrieved content as plain text.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFile Connecting to External APIs\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/ConnectingToExternalAPIs\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1TWjm94G8yRAaUcx7PAjmzsMrRned7yelMBz2COQNJ1s\/view\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow designed from the ground up, thinking through each piece as we go.\n\nThe core requirement here is to trigger a workflow via a webhook, fetch content from a Google Docs URL, and then send that content back as a plain text response to the initial webhook.\n\nSo, first things first, we need a way to kick off this whole process when an external system calls us. The most straightforward and indeed, the only specified way to do that, is with a webhook. So, I'll definitely start by adding a **Webhook** node. This is a `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, and the JSON shows it's using `typeVersion: 2`. This version usually brings improvements in how webhooks are handled, possibly in error reporting or more robust request parsing.\n\nOnce I've got the Webhook node in place, I need to configure it. The prompt specifies a very particular path: `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/ConnectingToExternalAPIs`. So, I'd set the 'Path' parameter in the Webhook node to precisely that string. This makes sure our workflow only triggers when a request hits that specific endpoint on our n8n instance.\n\nAnother crucial setting for this Webhook node, given the requirement to \"respond to the initial webhook,\" is the 'Response Mode'. I'd set this to 'Respond with Webhook Node'. This means the webhook won't send an immediate default response; instead, it'll wait for a subsequent 'Respond to Webhook' node later in the workflow to formulate and send the actual response. This is essential for sending back the content we're going to retrieve.\n\nNow that we have our trigger set up, the next logical step is to get the content from the Google Docs URL. We need a node that can interact with Google Docs. The obvious choice here is the **Google Docs** node. Looking at the JSON, it's a `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` node, with `typeVersion: 2`. This version likely offers updated API interactions and perhaps new features or better error handling compared to older versions.\n\nI'll connect the 'main' output of the 'Webhook' node to the 'main' input of this new 'Google Docs' node. This ensures that once the webhook is received, the workflow proceeds to fetch the document.\n\nFor the Google Docs node, the 'Operation' needs to be set. Since we want to retrieve content, 'Get' is the appropriate operation. Then, we need to tell it *which* document to get. The prompt provides a specific Google Docs URL. So, I would configure the 'Document URL' parameter with that URL. Of course, to make this node work, it'll need appropriate credentials to access Google Docs, likely an OAuth2 API credential. This credential would be linked to the node to allow it to authenticate with Google's services.\n\nAfter the Google Docs node successfully fetches the document, we'll have the content. The final step is to send this content back as a response to the original webhook. For this, we need a **Respond to Webhook** node. The JSON indicates this is a `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` node, `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node is specifically designed to work in conjunction with a Webhook trigger node that has its 'Response Mode' set to 'Respond with Webhook Node', which is exactly what we did.\n\nI'll connect the 'main' output of the 'Google Docs' node to the 'main' input of the 'Respond to Webhook' node. This ensures that the response is only sent *after* the Google Docs content has been successfully retrieved.\n\nIn the 'Respond to Webhook' node, we need to specify what kind of response we're sending and what content to include. The requirement is to send the retrieved content as \"plain text.\" So, for the 'Respond With' parameter, I'd select 'Text'.\n\nFor the 'Response Body', we need to dynamically insert the content fetched by the Google Docs node. When the Google Docs node successfully retrieves a document, it typically outputs the document's content in a field, often named `content`. So, I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` to pull that specific piece of data from the output of the previous Google Docs node and include it directly as the body of our plain text response. This ensures that only the textual content of the document is sent back, fulfilling the plain text requirement.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps up the design. The flow is straightforward: trigger, fetch, respond. Each node serves a very specific purpose in fulfilling the overall requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"My workflow 5\" containing a single Webhook node.

That's a good starting point; I'll make sure the overall workflow definition includes that name.\n\nThe core of this request is very specific: it needs to contain a *single Webhook node*. This immediately tells me what kind of node I'll need to add as the entry point, and likely the only node in this particular workflow.\n\nSo, I'll begin by adding a **Webhook node**. This is an `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node. I'll make sure to use `typeVersion: 2` as specified in the reference, which is generally a good practice to ensure I'm using the most up-to-date features and stable behavior of the node. A Webhook node is absolutely ideal here because its primary purpose is to act as an incoming endpoint, waiting for external systems to send requests to it. It's the perfect trigger for a workflow that needs to react to web requests.\n\nNow, let's configure this Webhook node.\nThe prompt says it needs to \"accept GET, POST, and DELETE methods\".\n* By default, a Webhook node might only listen for POST requests, or sometimes GET. To accommodate multiple methods, I'll need to enable an option within the Webhook's parameters that allows for \"multiple methods\". Once that's enabled, I can then explicitly select GET, POST, and DELETE from the available HTTP method options. This will be set in the `httpMethod` parameter of the node. This is crucial for ensuring the webhook responds to various types of requests rather than just one.\n\nNext, it needs to be configured \"at path `c61ad977-adf1-49eb-9eb0-d32d79be9376`\".\n* For the Webhook node, there's a dedicated \"Path\" parameter. I'll simply enter `c61ad977-adf1-49eb-9eb0-d32d79be9376` directly into that field. This defines the specific URL endpoint where the webhook will be accessible. It's also typical for the `webhookId` of the node to match this path for easier identification and management within n8n.\n\nFinally, the request specifies that it should be \"authenticated by JWT using the \"JWT Auth account\" credential.\"\n* Within the Webhook node's configuration, there's an \"Authentication\" option. I'll need to select \"JWT Auth\" from the dropdown.\n* Once \"JWT Auth\" is selected, it will then prompt me to choose a credential. The request explicitly names \"JWT Auth account\". This means a JWT credential with that name must already be pre-configured in the n8n instance. I'll link the webhook to that specific credential. This security measure ensures that only requests with a valid JWT token, signed by the configured JWT secret, will be processed by this webhook. It's a very important step for securing the endpoint.\n\nSince the prompt only asks for a *single* Webhook node, there will be no connections from this node to any other nodes. It acts purely as an incoming endpoint. The workflow will simply trigger, process the authentication, and if successful, the execution would typically end there, unless further nodes were added to process the incoming data (which isn't requested here). The `connections: {}` in the workflow JSON confirms that no connections are needed for this specific setup." } { "prompt": "Create an N8N workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

It literally does what it says on the tin: it provides a way to kick off the workflow with a click, which aligns perfectly with the requirement. I'll add that one first. Its `typeVersion` is 1, which is the standard for this node and indicates its current iteration in functionality. I don't really need to configure anything specific for the manual trigger itself; its purpose is simply to initiate the flow when I click \"Test workflow\" or manually execute it.\n\nNext, the prompt states, \"Connect it to a DebugHelper node configured to generate 100 items of random data, with the seed set to 0.\" So, after the manual trigger fires, I need something to generate data. The `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper` node sounds like a good candidate here. While its primary name implies debugging, it has a hidden gem: it can generate test data, which is exactly what's needed. Its `typeVersion` is also 1, just like the `manualTrigger`, indicating its stable current version.\n\nNow, how do I configure this `DebugHelper` node to meet the specific requirements? The prompt specifies \"generate 100 items of random data, with the seed set to 0.\" Looking at the parameters for the `DebugHelper` node, I see options for generating data.\n\nThe `category` parameter is crucial here. I need to select `randomData` for it. This tells the `DebugHelper` node that its job isn't just to inspect data, but to create random data from scratch.\n\nThen, there's the `randomDataCount` parameter. The prompt explicitly asks for \"100 items of random data,\" so I'll set this parameter to `100`. This will ensure that the node outputs exactly 100 distinct items into the workflow.\n\nAnd finally, the prompt specifies \"with the seed set to 0.\" This is important for reproducibility. If I want the \"random\" data to be the same every time the workflow runs with these settings, I need to provide a seed. The `randomDataSeed` parameter is exactly what I'm looking for, and I'll set its value to `0` as requested.\n\nNow, for the connection. The `manualTrigger` needs to flow into the `DebugHelper`. The standard way to connect nodes sequentially in n8n is to connect the \"main\" output of the preceding node to the \"main\" input of the subsequent node. So, I'll draw a connection from the \"main\" output of the \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" (my manual trigger) node to the \"main\" input of the \"DebugHelper\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, it passes control to the `DebugHelper`, telling it to execute its configured task of generating the 100 random data items. The `manualTrigger` typically just outputs a single empty item to initiate the next node, which is perfect here since the `DebugHelper` doesn't need any input to *generate* data, only a trigger to start generating." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a manual trigger that connects to an OpenThesaurus node, configured to search for 'Hallo'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [550, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"Hallo\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"OpenThesaurus\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.openThesaurus\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [750, 260]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"OpenThesaurus\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's build this n8n workflow from the ground up, thinking through each piece as we go.\n\nThe prompt specifies a few key things: it needs to start with a manual trigger, and then connect to an OpenThesaurus node to search for \"Hallo\".\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick it off.

Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the current stable version for this basic trigger.\n * I don't need any specific `parameters` for a manual trigger; it just fires when clicked. The `parameters` object in the JSON is empty, `{}`, which is exactly right.\n * I'll give it a clear `name` like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's obvious what it does in the interface.\n * Its `position` on the canvas is `[550, 260]`, which is just an arbitrary starting point on the visual canvas.\n\nNow that I have the workflow's entry point, I need to figure out what happens next. The prompt states it needs to \"connects to an OpenThesaurus node, configured to search for 'Hallo'.\"\n\n2. **Adding the OpenThesaurus Node:**\n * My next step is to find a node that can interact with the OpenThesaurus service. I'd search through the available nodes for \"thesaurus\" or \"OpenThesaurus.\"\n * The JSON shows a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.openThesaurus`. This is precisely the node I need.\n * So, I'll add this `openThesaurus` node. Again, its `typeVersion` is `1`, indicating the standard version.\n * Next, I need to connect it to the `manualTrigger` node. Since the `openThesaurus` node should run *after* the trigger, I'll draw a connection from the `manualTrigger`'s output to the `openThesaurus` node's input. The `connections` section in the JSON confirms this: `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"OpenThesaurus\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the `main` output of the trigger connects to the `main` input of the `OpenThesaurus` node. This is the typical way to chain operations sequentially.\n * Now for the configuration of this `openThesaurus` node. The prompt specifically asks it to be \"configured to search for 'Hallo'.\"\n * Looking at the `parameters` for the `openThesaurus` node in the JSON, I see `{\"text\": \"Hallo\", \"options\": {}}`.\n * This is perfect! The `text` parameter is where I'd input the word I want to search for, and setting it to `\"Hallo\"` directly addresses the requirement.\n * The `options` object is empty, indicating no advanced settings or filters are needed for this particular search, which is fine for a straightforward lookup.\n * I'll give this node a descriptive `name` like \"OpenThesaurus\" to easily identify its function.\n * Its `position` is `[750, 260]`, which places it to the right of the trigger node, maintaining a clean visual flow from left to right.\n\nAnd that's it! I've got the trigger, the connection, and the configured OpenThesaurus node. The workflow now matches all the requirements of the prompt and the provided JSON structure." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow to receive updates when a sale is made in Gumroad.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Receive updates when a sale is made in Gumroad\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"sale\"}, \"name\": \"Gumroad Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gumroadTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1310, 700]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this n8n workflow from the ground up, thinking through each step based on the goal: \"Create an n8n workflow to receive updates when a sale is made in Gumroad.\"\n\nMy primary goal here is to set up a listener. I need something that waits for an event to happen in Gumroad and then triggers the workflow.\n\nFirst, I'll consider what kind of node I need to initiate this workflow. Since it's about receiving updates *from* Gumroad, it immediately tells me I'm dealing with a webhook or an API poll. Ideally, n8n would have a dedicated trigger for Gumroad.\n\nLooking at the workflow JSON, I see there is indeed a dedicated Gumroad node. That's excellent! It means I don't have to deal with generic webhooks and manual parsing, which is always a plus for simplicity and reliability.\n\nSo, the very first node I'll add to my canvas will be a **Gumroad Trigger** node.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.gumroadTrigger`\n* **Type Version**: `1`\n\nWhy this specific node? Because it's purpose-built for Gumroad. Instead of me having to manually configure a webhook URL in Gumroad's settings and then trying to interpret the incoming data, this node handles the handshake and event listening automatically. It registers a webhook with Gumroad behind the scenes and waits for events to come in. The `typeVersion: 1` tells me I'm working with a specific iteration of this node, which is important for understanding its capabilities and expected parameters.\n\nNow, how do I configure this \"Gumroad Trigger\" node to specifically listen for sales?\n\nI'll open the node's settings. I'm looking for an option to specify *what kind* of event from Gumroad I'm interested in. The user prompt explicitly states \"when a sale is made.\"\n\nReviewing the JSON, under `parameters`, I see `{\"resource\": \"sale\"}`. This is exactly what I need!\n\n* Within the Gumroad Trigger node's configuration, I would set the **Resource** option to `Sale`. This tells the node to only trigger the workflow when Gumroad sends an update about a new sale. Gumroad can send updates for various events like refunds, new products, etc., but by specifying `sale`, I'm narrowing it down to precisely what the user requested.\n\nNext, for this node to communicate with Gumroad, it needs authentication. It can't just randomly receive updates; Gumroad needs to know it's sending data to a trusted source. This typically involves an API key or similar credentials.\n\n* In the JSON, under `credentials`, it shows `{\"gumroadApi\": \"gumroad\"}`. This indicates that a Gumroad API credential needs to be linked to this node. I would have previously set up a \"Gumroad API\" credential in n8n, which would contain the necessary authentication details (e.g., an API key obtained from my Gumroad account). This credential ensures that n8n can securely register the webhook with Gumroad and receive authorized data.\n\nFinally, the `webhookId` property (\"d72f9547-0530-4733-9e8b-3e3b1beec2eb\") is something n8n automatically generates and manages when the workflow is activated. It's the unique identifier for the specific webhook registration that this node maintains with Gumroad. I wouldn't need to configure this manually; it's handled internally by the platform.\n\nOnce configured this way, the Gumroad Trigger node is all set. Its purpose is solely to listen for and receive the sale events. The workflow would then sit idle, waiting for a sale to occur on Gumroad. When a sale happens, Gumroad would send data to the webhook URL provided by this n8n node, and the workflow would then execute.\n\nSince the prompt is only about *receiving* the updates, and the JSON only contains this single trigger node, there are no subsequent nodes to connect or configure. If the goal were, for instance, to send an email or update a spreadsheet after receiving the sale notification, I would then connect this Gumroad Trigger node to an \"Email\" node or a \"Google Sheets\" node, passing the sale data captured by the trigger into the next step. But for just receiving, this single node does the job of capturing the event." } { "prompt": "Generate a workflow with a manual trigger connected to a GraphQL node.

The goal is pretty clear: a manual kick-off leading straight into a GraphQL query to fetch some SpaceX launch data.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. The prompt specifically calls for a \"manual trigger.\" So, that's where I'll begin.\n\n1. **Node: 'On clicking 'execute''**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n * **Type Version:** `1`\n * **Reasoning:** This is the most straightforward way to initiate a workflow on demand. When someone clicks \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n interface, this node fires, sending a single item (or more, if configured for multiple runs, but for a simple trigger, one is fine) down the line. It's perfect for development and testing, or for any workflow that needs an explicit human start. I don't need any special configurations for it; the default parameters are exactly what's required here to simply trigger the flow.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt states it should be \"connected to a GraphQL node\" and specifies the API endpoint and the exact query. This makes the choice for the next node quite obvious.\n\n2. **Node: 'GraphQL'**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.graphql`\n * **Type Version:** `1`\n * **Reasoning:** This node is purpose-built for interacting with GraphQL APIs. It handles constructing the request, sending it to the endpoint, and receiving the response, which is precisely what we need to do with the SpaceX API.\n\nNow, let's talk about the **connection** between these two nodes.\n* The 'On clicking 'execute'' node will output a single item once triggered. This output needs to feed directly into the 'GraphQL' node so that the GraphQL query is executed immediately after the manual trigger fires. So, it will be a `main` connection from the trigger's output to the GraphQL node's input. The trigger simply signals the GraphQL node to perform its operation.\n\nFinally, we need to configure the 'GraphQL' node itself based on the detailed requirements.\n\n* **`endpoint` Parameter:** The prompt explicitly gives us `https:\/\/api.spacex.land\/graphql\/`. This is the URL that the GraphQL node will send its queries to. I'll paste that directly into the endpoint field.\n* **`query` Parameter:** This is the heart of the request. The prompt provides a very detailed query string. I need to make sure I copy this *exactly* into the `query` field within the GraphQL node's parameters.\n ```graphql\n {\n launchesPast(limit: 5) {\n mission_name\n launch_date_local\n launch_site {\n site_name_long\n }\n links {\n article_link\n video_link\n }\n rocket {\n rocket_name\n first_stage {\n cores {\n flight\n core {\n reuse_count\n status\n }\n }\n }\n second_stage {\n payloads {\n payload_type\n payload_mass_kg\n payload_mass_lbs\n }\n }\n }\n ships {\n name\n home_port\n image\n }\n }\n }\n ```\n This query is designed to fetch the last 5 past launches (`limit: 5`), including detailed information about the mission name, launch date, site, various links, rocket specifics (its name, first stage cores with their flight details, reuse count, status, and second stage payloads with their types and masses), and even information about the ships involved in the launch. It's a comprehensive data retrieval.\n* **`requestFormat` Parameter:** The JSON specifies `\"requestFormat\": \"json\"`. This is the standard way GraphQL requests are often formatted when sent over HTTP, typically as a JSON payload containing the query string. This is a sensible default and works well for most GraphQL APIs.\n* **`responseFormat` Parameter:** The JSON sets this to `\"responseFormat\": \"string\"`. This means the raw response body from the GraphQL API will be treated as a plain string. While GraphQL APIs typically return JSON, and n8n often handles JSON parsing automatically if the response header indicates `application\/json`, explicitly setting `string` means we'll get the raw text. If further processing of the data (like accessing specific fields) were needed downstream, I might consider setting this to `json` for automatic parsing, but adhering to the given specification, `string` it is. It implies the output might be used as a raw payload or passed to another node that expects a string.\n* **`headerParametersUi` Parameter:** The JSON shows `{\"parameter\": []}`, meaning no custom HTTP headers are being sent. For a public API like the SpaceX one, this is usually fine as no authentication tokens or specific content types beyond the default are typically required in the headers.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. We have a solid starting point with the manual trigger, a clear action with the GraphQL node configured precisely to the specifications, and the connection ensures a smooth flow of execution." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow named 'Get Weather' that, when triggered, sets a 'response' variable to the string 'Weather is sunny'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get Weather\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [560, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"Weather is sunny\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, 340]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this n8n workflow. The request is quite clear: we need a workflow named 'Get Weather' that, when triggered, simply outputs the string 'Weather is sunny' as a variable called 'response'.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the request, it says \"when triggered,\" which is a very general term. For a simple workflow that just needs to run and do something, without listening for a specific external event like an HTTP request or a schedule, a general trigger node is perfect.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding the **Execute Workflow Trigger** node. This node is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` and here we see `typeVersion: 1`. This is a very common trigger, essentially a manual start, or a way for one workflow to trigger another. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters for this basic use case, which is why its `parameters` object is empty in the JSON. It just kicks things off. I'd place it somewhere on the left of my canvas, ready to initiate the flow.\n\nNow that we have our workflow triggered, the core task is to \"set a 'response' variable to the string 'Weather is sunny'.\" For this, we need a node that can manipulate the data flowing through the workflow, specifically adding or modifying fields (which become variables accessible in later nodes or in the final output). The `Set` node is absolutely ideal for this. It's designed precisely for adding or changing data fields within the workflow items.\n\nSo, the next node I'd add would be the **Edit Fields** node, which internally is the `Set` node, indicated by `type: n8n-nodes-base.set`. The JSON specifies `typeVersion: 3.4` for this one.\n\nNow, how do we configure this `Set` node? The prompt states \"sets a 'response' variable to the string 'Weather is sunny'.\" This translates directly to the `Set` node's \"Assignments\" parameters. I'd go into the node's settings and add a new assignment. I'd name the field `response`, and then for its value, I would input the string `Weather is sunny`. It's important to make sure the type is set to `string`, which it is in the JSON's `type: \"string\"` within the assignment. The `id` property here, like `6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338`, is just an internal identifier for that specific assignment within the node's configuration. The `options` for the `Set` node are empty, meaning we don't need any special handling like keeping only specific fields or ignoring empty fields; we just want to add this one.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The flow of data in n8n typically goes from the trigger node to the subsequent processing nodes. So, I would draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node to the `main` input of the \"Edit Fields\" (Set) node. The JSON's `connections` block explicitly states this: `\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This ensures that once the trigger fires, the execution path immediately proceeds to the `Set` node, which will then perform its action of creating the 'response' variable with the specified weather string. The data item (an empty one or one containing simple trigger info) will pass from the trigger to the Set node, and the Set node will then add the 'response' field to that item." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow consisting of a POST Webhook node connected to a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 460]}, {\"parameters\": {\"httpMethod\": \"POST\", \"path\": \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 460]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed from the ground up. The prompt specifies a POST Webhook connected to a Set node, which is a pretty standard starting point for many n8n workflows \u2013 getting data in and then processing it.\n\nSo, the very first thing we need is an entry point for our workflow. Since the goal is to receive data via an HTTP request, a Webhook node is the perfect fit. Looking at the provided JSON, I can see its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the fundamental building block for any workflow that needs to be triggered by an external system or an incoming web request. It's designed to listen for and capture these requests.\n\nNow, we need to configure this Webhook node. The prompt specifically asked for a *POST* Webhook, and indeed, checking the JSON's `parameters` for the Webhook node, I see `httpMethod` is set to `\"POST\"`. This means our workflow will only activate when it receives an HTTP POST request at its unique URL. The `path` parameter is also there, like `\"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\"`. This is n8n's way of generating a unique and unguessable URL path for the webhook, so when the workflow is active, its full URL would be something like `http:\/\/your-n8n-instance.com\/webhook\/23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201`. There aren't any special `options` configured for this Webhook, so it's a basic setup just waiting for that POST request.\n\nOnce the Webhook receives data, we need to pass it along for further processing. The prompt states it should be \"connected to a Set node.\" So, the next logical step is to add that Set node. I'll drag it onto the canvas and then connect the Webhook's output to the Set node's input. The `connections` in the JSON confirm this: `\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This means the primary output of the Webhook will feed directly into the primary input of the Set node.\n\nLooking at the JSON for the Set node, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion` is `1`. The Set node is incredibly versatile. It allows us to add, remove, or modify data fields within the items flowing through the workflow. In this specific configuration, though, I see that its `parameters.options` are empty. This is interesting. It means that, as configured here, the Set node isn't actually *setting* any new values or performing any specific data manipulation. It's essentially acting as a pass-through node. It will receive all the data that came into the Webhook \u2013 headers, query parameters, and the request body (which, if I look at the `pinData` for the Webhook, shows an example body like `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`), and then it will simply output that same data. While it could be configured to transform data, in this case, it's just a placeholder or a no-op that fulfills the requirement of being connected. It might be there as a starting point for future data operations, or simply to demonstrate the basic connection flow.\n\nAnd that's it. We have our Webhook node acting as the listener, configured for POST requests, and it's directly piping all incoming data into a Set node, which, for now, is just passing that data along.

Looking at the JSON, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node is perfect for this. It's designed to start a workflow when you click a button in the UI, which aligns perfectly with a \"manual trigger\". I'd give it a clear name like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" to indicate its purpose. It's of `typeVersion: 1`, which is standard for this node. This node doesn't have any special parameters to configure beyond its name and general options.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions an \"Edit Fields\" node pre-populated with sample customer data. This sounds like a `Set` node in n8n, which is commonly used to create, modify, or pass data items within a workflow. The JSON confirms this, showing a `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.2`. I'll call it \"Edit Fields\". The crucial part here is the `pinData`. This is a really powerful feature for testing and development because it allows you to inject static, pre-defined data into a node *before* the workflow even runs, bypassing any upstream nodes for that specific test run. In this case, the `pinData` for \"Edit Fields\" contains five separate JSON objects, each representing a customer with fields like `id`, `name`, `email`, `notes`, `country`, and `created`. This means that when the workflow runs and hits this \"Edit Fields\" node, it will effectively start with these five data items, as if they came from the trigger or a previous node. I'd connect the `manualTrigger`'s main output to the \"Edit Fields\" main input, so the flow goes from initiating to processing these initial data items.\n\nFollowing that, the prompt asks for a \"Code node named 'Break pairedItem chain'\". This is an interesting requirement. A `n8n-nodes-base.code` node (`typeVersion: 2`) is the go-to for custom JavaScript logic. I'd name it \"Break pairedItem chain\". The `pairedItem` concept in n8n is about maintaining the relationship between input items and output items when a node processes them one by one. Sometimes, though, you want to break this chain, meaning that the output items should no longer be \"linked\" back to their original inputs. This can be useful if subsequent nodes need to process items completely independently, or if you're creating new items from scratch and don't want any lingering paired relationship. The code provided in the JSON, `return [\\n {\\n \\\"field\\\": \\\"the same\\\"\\n }\\n];`, is a very simple way to achieve this. For each input item it receives, it outputs a *new* single item `{\"field\": \"the same\"}`. This effectively discards the original input data (unless explicitly included in the new output object) and, more importantly, creates new items that have no paired relationship to the previous items. This completely resets the `pairedItem` context for any subsequent nodes. I'd connect the \"Edit Fields\" main output to this Code node's main input.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies an \"Error\" Set node that extracts the 'name' using an n8n expression from the 'Edit Fields' output. This implies another `n8n-nodes-base.set` node (`typeVersion: 3.2`), which I'd call \"Error\". The goal is to extract the `name` field from the *original* \"Edit Fields\" node's output, even after the Code node has seemingly \"broken\" the chain. This is where n8n's expression syntax really shines. The expression `={{ $('Edit Fields').item.json.name }}` is used here. Let's break that down. The `$` signifies that we're referencing another node's data. `'Edit Fields'` tells n8n to look at the data that came *out of* the \"Edit Fields\" node. Even though the \"Break pairedItem chain\" node created new items, n8n still retains the context of the *original* items from the \"Edit Fields\" node, thanks to the internal `pairedItem` referencing that allows nodes to access data from their ancestors. So, `.item` refers to the specific item from the \"Edit Fields\" node that was originally processed and led to the current item being processed by the \"Error\" node. Then, `.json.name` gets the `name` property from the JSON data of that specific original item. This is incredibly useful for logging or error reporting, where you want to know details about the original data item that caused a problem or that you're reporting on. I'd connect the main output of the \"Break pairedItem chain\" node to the main input of this \"Error\" Set node. This completes the flow as described." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers via a webhook POST request, fetches a random cocktail from TheCocktailDB API, and then posts the cocktail's name, instructions, serving glass, and an image to a Mattermost channel ID provided in the webhook body.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"webhook\", \"options\": {}, \"httpMethod\": \"POST\"}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [340, 200]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [570, 200]}, {\"parameters\": {\"message\": \"=Why not try {{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strDrink\\\"]}}?\\n{{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strInstructions\\\"]}} Serve in {{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strGlass\\\"]}}.\", \"channelId\": \"={{$node[\\\"Webhook\\\"].json[\\\"body\\\"][\\\"channel_id\\\"]}}\", \"attachments\": [{\"image_url\": \"={{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"drinks\\\"][0][\\\"strDrinkThumb\\\"]}}\"}], \"otherOptions\": {}}, \"name\": \"Mattermost\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.mattermost\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [770, 200]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Mattermost\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed.

For the 'Path', I'll just give it a simple, recognizable name like \"webhook\" so that the full URL for triggering it will be easy to remember. I don't see any other special 'Options' needed for this basic trigger.\n\nOkay, the workflow can now be triggered. What's next? After the trigger, the user wants to \"fetch a random cocktail from TheCocktailDB API.\" For fetching data from an external API, the go-to node is an **HTTP Request** node.\n\nI'll add an **HTTP Request** node right after the Webhook node, connecting the 'main' output of the Webhook to the 'main' input of the HTTP Request. This ensures that once the webhook is hit, the very next step is to make this API call. The type for this node is `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`, and its `typeVersion` is also `1`.\n\nConfiguring this one should be straightforward. I know the API endpoint for getting a random cocktail. I'll set the 'URL' parameter to `https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php`. I don't anticipate needing any special 'Options' like headers or authentication for this particular public API, so I'll leave those as they are. This node will execute, call the API, and return the cocktail data.\n\nNow that I have the cocktail data, the final step is to \"post the cocktail's name, instructions, serving glass, and an image to a Mattermost channel ID provided in the webhook body.\" This definitely calls for a **Mattermost** node.\n\nI'll drag in a **Mattermost** node and connect it to the 'main' output of the HTTP Request node. This way, the Mattermost message is only sent after the cocktail data has been successfully retrieved. The node type is `n8n-nodes-base.mattermost`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n\nNow for the configuration of the Mattermost node, this is where I'll pull data from the previous nodes.\n\nFirst, the 'Message' parameter. The prompt asks for the cocktail's name, instructions, and serving glass. I'll construct a message string using expressions to dynamically insert these values from the data returned by the HTTP Request node. It will look something like: `=Why not try {{$node[\"HTTP Request\"].json[\"drinks\"][0][\"strDrink\"]}}?\\n{{$node[\"HTTP Request\"].json[\"drinks\"][0][\"strInstructions\"]}} Serve in {{$node[\"HTTP Request\"].json[\"drinks\"][0][\"strGlass\"]}}.` This expression accesses the `json` output of the \"HTTP Request\" node, then navigates into the `drinks` array (taking the first item `[0]`) to get the `strDrink`, `strInstructions`, and `strGlass` fields. I'm building a friendly little message here.\n\nNext, the 'Channel ID'. This is important because the prompt says it's \"provided in the webhook body.\" So, I need to get this value from the *initial* Webhook node. I'll use an expression again for the 'Channel ID' parameter: `={{$node[\"Webhook\"].json[\"body\"][\"channel_id\"]}}`. This tells the Mattermost node to look into the `json` output of the \"Webhook\" node, then specifically into its `body` to find the `channel_id` field. This ensures the message goes to the correct, dynamically specified channel.\n\nFinally, the image. The prompt requires posting \"an image.\" The CocktailDB API usually provides an image URL. I'll use the 'Attachments' parameter and set up an 'Image URL'. For its value, I'll again use an expression to pull it from the HTTP Request node's output: `={{$node[\"HTTP Request\"].json[\"drinks\"][0][\"strDrinkThumb\"]}}`. This will display the cocktail's image directly in the Mattermost channel.\n\nI'll also need to ensure that Mattermost API credentials are configured, but I don't need to specify their actual values here. The `credentials` property in the JSON shows that a credential named \"Mattermost\" of type `mattermostApi` would be linked here. This is necessary for n8n to authenticate with the Mattermost instance.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers all the requirements. The workflow starts with a webhook, fetches the data, and then posts it with the required details and dynamic channel ID. The connections are straightforward sequential execution." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that manually triggers reading all data from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"filters\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\"}, \"name\": \"Microsoft Excel\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.microsoftExcel\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Microsoft Excel\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow. The user wants to create a workflow that manually triggers, and then reads all data from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. This is a pretty common request, so I have a good idea of the general structure.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The user specifically mentioned \"manually triggers.\" Looking at the JSON, the very first node, positioned at `[250, 300]`, is named \"On clicking 'execute'\". Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is perfect for the \"manually triggers\" requirement. The `manualTrigger` node is designed precisely for scenarios where a workflow needs to be started by a user clicking a button in the n8n interface. It doesn't need any specific parameters, as its purpose is simply to kick off the workflow on demand, so `parameters: {}` makes complete sense here. I don't anticipate any issues with `typeVersion 1` for a simple manual trigger; it's a very stable and fundamental node.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next step in the user's request is to \"read all data from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.\" This immediately tells me I'll need a node that can interact with Microsoft Excel. Checking the JSON again, the next node, positioned at `[450, 300]`, is named \"Microsoft Excel.\" Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.microsoftExcel`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is exactly the node we need. It's the dedicated n8n node for interacting with Excel online.\n\nLet's think about how this \"Microsoft Excel\" node needs to be configured. The request is to \"read *all* data.\" When I look at the `parameters` for this node in the JSON, I see `{\"filters\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\"}`. The `operation: \"getAll\"` setting is exactly what we need to fulfill the requirement of reading all data. This means the node will attempt to retrieve all available rows and columns from the specified sheet or workbook, rather than, say, just a single row or specific range. The `filters: {}` being empty indicates that no specific criteria are being applied to narrow down the data being read, which aligns perfectly with the \"read all data\" instruction. If we wanted to read only specific rows, we'd add conditions here, but for \"all,\" empty filters are correct.\n\nOne crucial aspect of interacting with any external service like Microsoft Excel is authentication. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"microsoftExcelOAuth2Api\": \"ms-oauth-creds\"}`. This tells me that this node requires a pre-configured credential of the `microsoftExcelOAuth2Api` type. This is typically where you'd set up an OAuth 2.0 connection to your Microsoft account, granting n8n permission to access your Excel files. The specific value \"ms-oauth-creds\" would be the name of that credential configuration. Without this, the node wouldn't be able to connect to Excel, regardless of the operation chosen. It's good that it's specified, even if generically.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The `manualTrigger` starts the workflow, and then it needs to tell the \"Microsoft Excel\" node to perform its operation. Looking at the `connections` section in the JSON, it shows `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Microsoft Excel\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This confirms that the \"main\" output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (our manual trigger) node is connected to the \"main\" input of the \"Microsoft Excel\" node. This is the standard flow: when the trigger runs, it passes control (and potentially an empty item, though the Excel node doesn't strictly need input data to *start* its operation) to the Excel node, causing it to execute its configured operation, which is to get all data. This sequential connection perfectly reflects the desired workflow: manually trigger, then read Excel data. No other connections are needed for this specific requirement. It's a straightforward, linear flow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a POST Webhook node and connects it to a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 460]}, {\"parameters\": {\"httpMethod\": \"POST\", \"path\": \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 460]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this n8n workflow designed from the ground up.\n\nMy goal here is to create a workflow that can receive data via an HTTP POST request and then process it. The prompt specifically asks for a \"POST Webhook node\" as the starting point, connected to a \"Set node.\" I've got the n8n workflow JSON right here to guide me, which is great because it gives me the exact blueprint.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way for this workflow to be triggered by an external event. Based on the requirement, an incoming HTTP request is the trigger. So, the very first node I'll need to add is a Webhook node. This is perfect for listening for incoming web calls.\n\nSo, I'm starting with a **Webhook** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is fundamentally designed to act as an entry point for external systems to send data into our workflow. It essentially creates a unique URL that other applications can send data to.\n\nLooking at its configuration, I see a few key parameters:\n* `httpMethod` is set to `\"POST\"`. This is crucial because the prompt specifically asked for a *POST* Webhook. This means the node will only respond to incoming HTTP POST requests, which are typically used when you want to send data to the server, rather than just requesting it (like a GET request).\n* `path` is configured with a unique identifier. This makes sure that the specific URL for this webhook is distinct and won't clash with other webhooks in the system. I don't need to know the specific ID, just that it creates a unique endpoint.\n* `options` is empty, which implies no special setup like authentication or response mode is being used for this particular webhook. It's a straightforward listener.\n\nOnce the Webhook node receives an incoming request, it will capture the data (like headers, query parameters, and the request body) and make it available as output items for the next node in the workflow. The `pinData` section in the JSON gives me a good example of what kind of data to expect \u2013 a JSON body with keys like \"here\" and \"dragons.\"\n\nNow, according to the prompt and the JSON structure, the next node to connect is a Set node. This seems like a common and very useful step. After receiving data from a Webhook, you often want to clean it up, add new fields, or modify existing ones before further processing.\n\nSo, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the Webhook node to my next node, which is a **Set** node. The Set node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is also `1`.\n\nThe Set node is incredibly versatile. Its primary purpose is to manipulate the data that passes through it. You can use it to:\n* Add new fields to the incoming data items.\n* Modify the values of existing fields.\n* Remove fields that are no longer needed.\n* Even set a fixed value for a field, which can be useful for debugging or placeholder data.\n\nIn this specific JSON, the Set node's `parameters` show only an empty `options` object. This means that, in its current configuration, this Set node isn't actually modifying or setting any values. It's essentially acting as a pass-through. This could be intentional \u2013 perhaps it's a placeholder for future logic, or maybe the workflow designer simply wants to ensure the data is explicitly flowing to a known node, even if no transformation is immediately necessary. If I were designing it, and needed to, say, add a timestamp or a status field, this is exactly where I'd configure those `values` to be set or modified. But for now, it's just passing the webhook's output straight through.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the provided JSON: a Webhook receiving POST requests, and then passing that data directly to a Set node." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a Manual Trigger node, configured with example data including `aaString`, `aaNumber`, `aaArray`, `aaObject`, and `aaAny` fields.

This sounds like a common pattern for creating modular workflows, where one workflow kicks off another, possibly passing some initial data.\n\nFirst things first, an entry point is needed. The prompt specifically asks for a \"Manual Trigger\" node. This is perfect for development and testing, as I can just click a button in the editor to start the workflow and see what happens.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is 1. This is a very standard and stable version of the trigger node. I'd give it a descriptive name, like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" which is what the JSON uses, so it's clear what its purpose is.\n\nNow, the prompt specifies that this trigger node needs to be configured with example data. This is crucial for simulating real-world inputs when I test the workflow. I'd go into the node's settings, typically in the \"Example Data\" section, and add the fields requested:\n* `aaString`: I'd put in a string value, perhaps \"A String\", and then maybe \"Another String\" for a second item to ensure multiple items are handled.\n* `aaNumber`: A simple number like 1, and then 2 for the second item.\n* `aaArray`: An array of mixed types, perhaps `[1, true, \"3\"]`, and then an empty array `[]` for the second item to test edge cases.\n* `aaObject`: A simple object, say `{\"aKey\": -1}`, and then `{\"aDifferentKey\": -1}` for the second item.\n* `aaAny`: This is interesting, it can be anything. I'd start with an empty object `{}` for the first item and an empty array `[]` for the second to show its flexibility.\nThe `pinData` in the JSON clearly shows these values configured for two items, which is excellent for testing purposes. It ensures that any downstream nodes can handle different data types and multiple items.\n\nNext up, the prompt says to connect this trigger node to an \"Execute Workflow\" node. This node is super useful when you want to create sub-workflows or reusable components. Instead of duplicating logic, you can encapsulate it in a separate workflow and call it from others.\n\nSo, I'd then add an **Execute Workflow** node. The JSON indicates its type is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow` and its `typeVersion` is 1.2. This is a fairly recent version and offers good functionality for this purpose. I'd name it \"Execute Workflow\", as per the JSON.\n\nNow, for configuring the 'Execute Workflow' node. Its primary job is to call another workflow.\n* The `workflowId` parameter is where I'd typically specify *which* workflow ID to execute. In the provided JSON, this field is empty, which means it's not yet configured to call a specific child workflow. In a real scenario, after creating the child workflow, I'd paste its ID here.\n* Then there's `workflowInputs`. This is where data from the current workflow (like the data from our Manual Trigger) can be passed *into* the workflow being executed. The `mappingMode` is `defineBelow`, which means I'd explicitly map fields if I wanted to pass specific values. Currently, the `value` is an empty object, meaning no specific inputs are being passed to the executed workflow from *this* node's configuration. It would receive all incoming data by default if no explicit mapping is done, or I could define exactly which fields from the trigger node should go into the executed workflow's input. For now, it's set up to allow for future mapping.\n* The `options` parameter is also empty, indicating no special execution options like waiting for the child workflow to complete or executing it asynchronously are currently set.\n\nFinally, the connection. This is straightforward. The `connections` section in the JSON shows that the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" (our Manual Trigger) has a `main` output connection that goes to the `main` input of the \"Execute Workflow\" node. This establishes a direct data flow: when the manual trigger is activated, its example data will flow directly into the 'Execute Workflow' node. This is the standard way to chain nodes together in n8n. The data from the trigger, including all the `aaString`, `aaNumber`, `aaArray`, `aaObject`, and `aaAny` fields, will become the input for the 'Execute Workflow' node." } { "prompt": "Here are a couple of options:\n\n**Option 1 (Two Sentences):**\n\"Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

The primary goal here is to send an email, and we need a way to kick that off.\n\nSo, the very first thing we need is a starting point, a way to initiate the entire process. Looking at what's provided, the `manualTrigger` node is the perfect candidate for this. It's a `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node with `typeVersion` 1. This means it's designed to be executed manually within the n8n interface, which is exactly what we want for a simple, on-demand email sending workflow. There are no special parameters to configure for this node; it simply acts as a \"start\" button. It's a very common and straightforward way to begin many workflows, especially during development or for tasks that aren't driven by external events.\n\nOnce that manual trigger is activated, we need to perform our main action: sending an email. Given the information, the `Mailgun` node is the obvious choice for this. It's an `n8n-nodes-base.mailgun` node, also with `typeVersion` 1. If we were considering other options, we might think about a generic 'Email' node or perhaps a node for a different email service like SendGrid or Gmail, but since Mailgun is specified, we're sticking with that.\n\nNow, how do we connect the trigger to the Mailgun node? We simply draw a connection from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node (which is our manual trigger) to the \"Mailgun\" node. This will be a standard 'main' connection. This type of connection means that when the manual trigger fires, it will pass control directly to the Mailgun node, telling it to execute. There's no complex data transformation needed at this stage; it's just a simple flow of execution.\n\nNext, we need to configure the Mailgun node so it knows what email to send and how to send it. Looking at its parameters, we've got several important fields.\nFirst, we need to specify the `fromEmail` and `toEmail`. These are crucial for any email. The `fromEmail` would be configured with a designated sender email address, one that's authorized to send emails through the Mailgun service. Similarly, the `toEmail` field would contain the specific recipient email address for this message.\nThen, there's the `subject` field, where we'd input the subject line of the email. And the `text` field is for the body of the email, containing the actual message content. These are all pretty standard for an email sending operation.\n\nFinally, and very importantly for the Mailgun node, are the `credentials`. This node requires `mailgunApi` credentials to authenticate with the Mailgun service. These would be pre-configured API credentials within n8n, allowing the workflow to securely access and use the Mailgun service to send the email. Without these credentials, the node wouldn't be able to connect to Mailgun's API and send anything. This approach keeps sensitive information like API keys out of the workflow definition itself and in n8n's secure credential storage.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The manual trigger starts the process, and then the Mailgun node takes over, using its configured parameters and secure credentials to dispatch the email. It's a straightforward two-node workflow, perfect for a simple email notification." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named \"AMQP\" that starts, sets a \"message\" field to \"AMQPMessage\" followed by the current timestamp (keeping only this field), and then sends it to an \"AMQPQueue\" via an AMQP Sender node, configured for reconnection with a limit of 5 and using AMQP credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"AMQP\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Start\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.start\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"sink\": \"AMQPQueue\", \"headerParametersJson\": \"{}\", \"options\": {\"reconnect\": true, \"reconnectLimit\": 5}}, \"name\": \"AMQP Sender\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.amqp\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"keepOnlySet\": true, \"values\": {\"string\": [{\"name\": \"message\", \"value\": \"=AMQPMessage{{Date.now()}}\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Start\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"AMQP Sender\": {\"main\": [[]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AMQP Sender\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow designed and built from the ground up. The request is to create an inactive workflow named \"AMQP\" that starts, prepares a message, and then sends it via AMQP.\n\nFirst off, I need to make sure the overall workflow itself is configured correctly. The prompt explicitly states it should be named \"AMQP\" and be \"inactive\". So, when I save this, I'll set its name to \"AMQP\" and ensure the \"active\" flag is set to `false`. This means it won't run automatically until someone manually activates it.\n\nNow, let's think about the actual flow of data and operations. Every workflow needs a starting point.\nThe most common and straightforward way to initiate a workflow, especially one that isn't triggered by an external event, is to use a **Start node**.\n\nSo, I'll begin by adding a **Start node**.\nIts `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.start` and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\nThis node is essential because it acts as the initial execution point. For this particular workflow, it doesn't require any special configuration parameters; it simply serves to kick off the sequence of operations. It's usually positioned at the beginning of the visual layout.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow needs to \"set a 'message' field to 'AMQPMessage' followed by the current timestamp (keeping only this field)\". This sounds like a job for a node that can manipulate data, specifically setting or transforming fields. The **Set node** is perfect for this. It allows me to define new fields, modify existing ones, and control what data is passed to the next node.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Set node** right after the Start node.\nIts `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\nI'll connect the `main` output of the Start node to the `main` input of this Set node. This ensures that any initial data (though none from the Start node in this case) flows into the Set node for processing.\n\nNow, for configuring this Set node:\nThe request specifies setting a field named \"message\". So, under its parameters, I'll add a new string value.\nThe `name` for this value will be \"message\".\nThe `value` for this field needs to combine \"AMQPMessage\" with the current timestamp. This means I'll need to use an expression. I can write `=AMQPMessage{{Date.now()}}`. `Date.now()` is a standard JavaScript function that returns the current timestamp in milliseconds since the Unix epoch, which is exactly what's needed here. The `{{...}}` syntax denotes an expression in n8n.\nCrucially, the prompt also states \"keeping only this field\". This means I need to enable the `keepOnlySet` option within the Set node's parameters. By setting `keepOnlySet` to `true`, the node will discard any incoming data and only pass on the newly created \"message\" field. This ensures a clean data structure for the subsequent AMQP sending step.\n\nFinally, the core action is to \"send it to an 'AMQPQueue' via an AMQP Sender node, configured for reconnection with a limit of 5 and using AMQP credentials.\"\nThis clearly points to an **AMQP Sender node**.\n\nI'll add an **AMQP Sender node** next, connecting the `main` output of the Set node to its `main` input. This way, the \"message\" field that we just created will be directly available to the AMQP Sender node.\nIts `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.amqp` and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n\nLet's configure this AMQP Sender node according to the requirements:\n1. **Target Queue:** The message needs to be sent to \"AMQPQueue\". So, in the node's parameters, the `sink` field will be set to `\"AMQPQueue\"`. This tells the node where to publish the message.\n2. **Reconnection:** The request specifies \"reconnection with a limit of 5\". Under the `options` within the node's parameters, I'll set `reconnect` to `true` and `reconnectLimit` to `5`. This ensures robustness, allowing the node to attempt reconnecting if the connection drops, up to five times.\n3. **Credentials:** The node needs to use \"AMQP credentials\". In the credentials section of the node, I would select the pre-configured AMQP credentials. In this specific JSON, it refers to `{\"amqp\": {\"id\": \"80\", \"name\": \"AMQP creds\"}}`, meaning a set of AMQP credentials named \"AMQP creds\" would be linked. This is crucial for authentication and authorization with the AMQP broker.\n\nAt this point, the workflow would start, create the specific message, and then send it out. There are no further connections specified, so the AMQP Sender node would be the final step in this particular execution path. The data flow is `Start` -> `Set` -> `AMQP Sender`, each passing its main output to the next node's main input.

This is perfectly logical for a brand-new, disabled workflow \u2013 it hasn't had a chance to run or be triggered yet, so its count is reset.\n\nNow, let's consider the actual \"content\" of the workflow, which for a disabled configuration, will be mostly empty placeholders.\nThe `nodes` array is where all the individual steps of the workflow would be defined. Since this is a disabled, empty configuration, `nodes` will be an empty array (`[]`). There are no specific node types (like `Webhook`, `HTTP Request`, or `Set`) or `typeVersion` to specify here because no nodes have been added yet. This is the starting point for any new workflow before you drag and drop your first node onto the canvas.\n\nFollowing that, the `connections` object details how data flows between those nodes. With an empty `nodes` array, there can be no connections, so `connections` will also be an empty object (`{}`).\n\nThe prompt also asks for `staticData`, `meta`, and `pinData` to be initialized to their default empty or null states.\n`staticData` will be `null`. This field is typically used for persistent, workflow-level data that might need to be remembered across executions, but for a new workflow, there's nothing to store yet.\n`meta` will also be `null`. This is for general metadata about the workflow, perhaps for internal system use or descriptive purposes, but again, nothing for a new empty workflow.\n`pinData` will be an empty object (`{}`). This usually holds information related to the UI layout of the nodes on the canvas. Since there are no nodes, there's no layout information to store.\n\nFinally, `tags` are also requested to be empty. `tags` will be an empty array (`[]`). Tags help categorize and find workflows, and a new workflow starts without any assigned tags.\n\nOne crucial detail is the `settings` object. The prompt specifies `settings: {executionOrder: 'v1'}`. This is a configuration for the workflow's execution engine itself. `executionOrder: 'v1'` specifies how the nodes within the workflow will be processed. It's a global setting for this particular workflow, indicating it should use a specific version of the execution logic. This is distinct from node-specific settings and applies to the overall workflow behavior.\n\nSo, in summary, the thought process maps directly to constructing this JSON: establish the workflow's identity and state (ID, name, version, active status, timestamps, trigger count), and then populate all the structural content fields (nodes, connections, staticData, meta, pinData, tags) with their initial, empty, or null values, as it's a new, disabled configuration. The `executionOrder` setting is a key operational detail that's set at the workflow level right from the start." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that is triggered manually.

The user's request is pretty clear: a manually triggered workflow with two consecutive Gmail 'get' operations.\n\nSo, the very first thing we need is a way to kick off the workflow. Looking at the requirements, it needs to be triggered manually. When I'm thinking about how to build this in n8n, the most straightforward node for that is the Manual Trigger.\n\nLet's find that in the provided JSON. Ah, here it is:\n`{\"parameters\": {}, \"id\": \"449ab540-d97-480d-b131-05e9989a69cd\", \"name\": \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 460]}`\n\nThis `manualTrigger` node is perfect. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is specifically designed for scenarios where a workflow needs to be started by a user clicking a button, typically \"Test workflow\" in the n8n UI, or when an activated workflow is manually executed. It doesn't require any specific parameters itself, as its job is simply to initiate the workflow run and pass an empty item (or a default item, depending on version) to the next node. Its name \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" makes its purpose very explicit. This sets up our starting point nicely.\n\nNext up, the user wants two consecutive Gmail nodes, each performing a 'get' operation. So, the output of our manual trigger needs to feed into the first Gmail node.\n\nLet's look for the first Gmail node connected to our trigger.\nThe `connections` section shows:\n`\"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`\nThis confirms the manual trigger connects to a node named \"Gmail\". Looking at the node list, that would be:\n`{\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\"}, \"id\": \"3a791321-6f0c-4f92-91e5-20e1be0d4964\", \"name\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 2.1, \"position\": [680, 460]}`\n\nThis is our first Gmail node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.gmail` and it's `typeVersion 2.1`. The Gmail node is the go-to for any email-related operations using Google's Gmail API. This is exactly what the user asked for.\nNow, about its configuration: the `parameters` object contains `{\"operation\": \"get\"}`. This is crucial because it tells the Gmail node specifically *what* to do. A 'get' operation typically means retrieving emails, or details about emails, from a Gmail account. This aligns perfectly with the prompt's requirement for a 'get' operation. Of course, when configuring this node in a real scenario, you'd also need to select or set up credentials to connect to a specific Gmail account, but those details aren't part of the operational parameters and are handled separately by n8n's credential system. For this explanation, it's enough to know the operation is set to 'get'.\n\nAfter this first Gmail node completes its operation, its output (which would typically be a list of email data, depending on other unspecified parameters like query, limit, etc.) needs to be passed to the second Gmail node.\n\nChecking the `connections` again:\n`\"Gmail\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`\nThis shows that the first \"Gmail\" node connects to a node referred to as \"Gmail1\". In n8n, if you add multiple nodes of the same type without explicitly renaming them, they often get sequential names like \"Gmail\" then \"Gmail1\". Looking at the JSON for \"Gmail1\" (or rather, the node that corresponds to that internal reference, which is identified by its ID):\n`{\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\"}, \"id\": \"5b084875-bd5e-4731-9591-18d2c8996945\", \"name\": \"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 2.1, \"position\": [900, 460]}`\n\nThis is indeed our second Gmail node. It's also an `n8n-nodes-base.gmail` node with `typeVersion 2.1`. The `name` field is empty here, but its ID and position in the connection chain confirm its role. Just like the first one, its `parameters` are configured with `{\"operation\": \"get\"}`. This means it will also perform a 'get' operation, effectively retrieving email data again. It's consecutive as requested, meaning the second 'get' operation happens *after* the first one has finished and potentially processed its output. The data from the first Gmail node will flow into this second one, which could be used, for example, to filter or further process the emails, or simply to perform another independent 'get' operation, perhaps on a different set of criteria or a different account if configured. The prompt doesn't specify *how* the second get should use the data from the first, just that it should be consecutive and also a 'get' operation.\n\nAnd that completes the specified workflow. We have the manual trigger, feeding into the first Gmail 'get' operation, which then feeds into a second, consecutive Gmail 'get' operation." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that starts with a 'When chat message received' trigger. Connect it to a Set node configured to output `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`, followed by another Set node outputting `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"When chat message received\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [320, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_1\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_2\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [580, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_3\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_4\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, -380]}], \"connections\": {\"When chat message received\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Node 1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this workflow from scratch, as if I'm sitting down and figuring out how to build it based on the requirements.\n\nThe first thing the user prompt mentions is that the workflow needs to start with a \"'When chat message received' trigger.\" This immediately tells me my initial node. I'll look for a trigger that listens for incoming chat messages.\n\nSo, I'd add a node of type **@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger** (specifically, `typeVersion: 1.1`). This node is perfect because its very purpose is to initiate a workflow when a chat message comes in. It's designed to be the entry point for chat-based interactions. When I add it, it would automatically generate a unique webhook ID, which is how external chat platforms would communicate with it. I wouldn't need to configure much here unless there were specific options like filtering messages or setting up credentials for a particular chat service, but for a basic \"when received\" trigger, the default options are usually fine, as seen by the empty `parameters.options` in the JSON. This serves as the starting point, waiting for an external event.\n\nNext, the prompt says, \"Connect it to a Set node configured to output `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`.\"\n\nOkay, so after the chat message is received, I need to create some specific data. The Set node is the go-to for this kind of operation. It allows you to define a fixed set of data, modify incoming data, or combine data. Since the requirement is to *output* a specific JSON structure, a Set node is ideal.\n\nI'd add a node of type **n8n-nodes-base.set** (with `typeVersion: 3.4`). I'll call it something like \"Node 1\" for now, although in a real scenario, I might name it \"Initial Data Set\" or something more descriptive.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Set node to output that exact JSON? Looking at the JSON, it uses the `mode: \"raw\"` parameter. This is exactly what I'd choose. The \"raw\" mode allows me to paste a JSON string directly into the `jsonOutput` field, ensuring the node outputs precisely what I want, without needing to build it field by field using expressions. So, I would paste `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}` into the `jsonOutput` parameter. This means that every time this Set node runs, it will create an item with exactly this JSON structure.\n\nAnd for the connection: the workflow should start with the chat message trigger, and then immediately go to this Set node. So, I'd connect the \"main\" output of the \"When chat message received\" node to the \"main\" input of this first Set node (\"Node 1\"). This ensures a linear flow \u2013 once a chat message comes in, the workflow proceeds directly to generating this initial data.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies, \"followed by another Set node outputting `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`.\"\n\nThis is straightforward \u2013 it's the exact same logic as the previous step, but for a different set of data. I need another Set node.\n\nSo, I'd add a second node of type **n8n-nodes-base.set** (again, `typeVersion: 3.4`). I'll call it \"Node 2.\"\n\nJust like the first Set node, I'll configure its `mode` parameter to \"raw,\" and then paste `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}` into its `jsonOutput` parameter. This will ensure that this node outputs the second specified JSON structure.\n\nFor the connection, this second Set node needs to run *after* the first one. So, I'll connect the \"main\" output of the first Set node (\"Node 1\") to the \"main\" input of this second Set node (\"Node 2\"). This creates a clean, sequential flow: chat message received -> create initial data -> create additional data. The data from the first Set node would typically be passed along to the second, though in this \"raw\" mode setup, the second Set node essentially overwrites or provides new data, rather than modifying the previous. If the intention was to *add* fields to the existing data, I might consider a different approach for the second Set node, perhaps using \"add\" mode and expressions, but based on the explicit \"outputting\" of new JSON, two separate Set nodes with \"raw\" mode is the most direct interpretation. And that completes the workflow as described." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a single Webhook node configured with the path 'FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ'.

The prompt is quite specific: a single Webhook node, a particular path, and then `pinData` to simulate a test call with specific header and empty body\/param\/query conditions.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need is a way for my workflow to receive external HTTP requests. That immediately brings the **Webhook** node to mind. It's the quintessential starting point for any workflow that needs to be triggered by an incoming web call. I'll use the `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` type, and the JSON specifies `typeVersion: 2`, which is a common and stable version for this node, providing all the necessary functionalities for setting up a listener.\n\nNow, configuring this Webhook node. The prompt is very clear about the path: `FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`. So, within the Webhook node's parameters, I'll set the `path` property to exactly that string. This means that when the workflow is active, it will be listening for requests coming into `http:\/\/your-n8n-instance.com\/webhook\/FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ` (or `\/webhook-test\/` for test runs). Looking at the JSON, there are no special `options` configured, so I'll leave that part empty, meaning it will use default settings like listening for all HTTP methods (GET, POST, etc.) and not requiring a response. The node also has an internal `id` and a `webhookId`, which are unique identifiers n8n assigns, and its `name` is simply \"Webhook,\" which is the default and perfectly descriptive for this node. Its `position` coordinates are also set, which just dictates where it appears on the canvas.\n\nNext, and this is a crucial part of the request, is simulating the webhook call using `pinData`. This `pinData` property is like a stored test input that n8n can use to run the workflow without actually having to send a real request to the webhook URL. It's incredibly useful for development and debugging.\n\nThe `pinData` for my \"Webhook\" node is an array, and in this case, it contains a single object, representing one simulated incoming request.\nInside this object, I need to capture the details of the simulated call:\n* First, the `headers`. The prompt asks for \"typical browser headers.\" So, I'll include things like `connection: \"keep-alive\"`, `user-agent` (with a typical browser string, e.g., for Chrome on Mac), `accept: \"*\/*\"`, a `cookie` header (simulating a browser session cookie, though the exact value is not important, just its presence), `host` (e.g., `localhost:5678` for a local n8n instance), and `accept-encoding: \"gzip, deflate\"`. These are all very common headers sent by web browsers.\n* Then, the `params`. The prompt explicitly states \"empty parameters.\" So, I'll set `params: {}`. This means the webhook URL didn't have any route parameters like `\/items\/{itemId}`.\n* Similarly, `query`. The prompt says \"empty query.\" So, `query: {}`. This indicates there were no URL query parameters like `?name=value&id=123`.\n* And finally, `body`. The prompt clearly states \"empty body.\" So, `body: {}`. This implies that no data was sent in the request's body (like JSON or form data).\n* The `webhookUrl` is also provided in the `pinData`. This reflects the full URL that the simulated call would have targeted, including the `webhook-test` prefix because it's a test execution via `pinData`.\n* Lastly, `executionMode: \"test\"` confirms that this `pinData` is intended for simulating a test run of the workflow, rather than capturing a real production execution.\n\nSince the request is for a \"single Webhook node,\" there are no `connections` needed between nodes. The `connections` object in the JSON remains empty, which is exactly what I'd expect for a workflow with just one starting node that isn't connected to anything else downstream.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The workflow is designed to receive a webhook, and the `pinData` is set up to let me test it immediately with the exact conditions specified in the prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'Sindney-AI | Router' (tagged 'sindney-ai') that starts with a POST webhook at `\/sindney-ai-router`.

The prompt clearly states it needs to start with a POST webhook at a specific path.\n\nSo, naturally, the very first node I'd place on the canvas would be a **Webhook node** (`n8n-nodes-base.webhook`). Looking at the JSON, it's using `typeVersion: 2`. This node is perfect for receiving external HTTP requests, which is exactly what a router workflow needs to do.\n\nNow, for configuring this Webhook node. The prompt specifies a POST request, so I'd make sure its `httpMethod` parameter is set to `POST`. And the path is given as `\/sindney-ai-router`, so the `path` parameter would be set to `sindney-ai-router`. I wouldn't worry about any authentication or options for this particular webhook since the prompt doesn't mention it; I'd just stick to the basic setup.\n\nAfter the webhook receives the incoming JSON body, the core requirement is to route this body via *parallel* POST requests to two different HTTP endpoints. This immediately tells me that the output of my Webhook node needs to branch out to two separate nodes.\n\nFor sending HTTP requests, the obvious choice is an **HTTP Request node** (`n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`). I see in the JSON that both instances of this node are using `typeVersion: 4.2`. I'd drag out two of these nodes onto the canvas and connect them both directly from the main output of the Webhook node. This parallel connection is crucial for the routing aspect, allowing both requests to be initiated simultaneously, rather than sequentially.\n\nLet's configure the first HTTP Request node. The prompt names it 'Sindnei-AI Dev' and provides its URL: `https:\/\/n8n-main.codai.dev.br\/webhook-test\/sindney-ai-cxa`. So, I'd set the node's `name` property to 'Sindnei-AI Dev' and its `url` parameter to that specific development URL. Since it needs to send the *incoming JSON body* from the webhook, I'd set the `method` to `POST`. Then, I'd enable `sendBody` and specify the `specifyBody` type as `json`. The actual `jsonBody` parameter would use an expression to pass the entire input JSON from the webhook, which is typically `={{ $json }}`. This ensures whatever the webhook received is faithfully forwarded. A critical requirement for both routing nodes is to \"continue on error.\" This means if one of the target endpoints is down or returns an error, the workflow shouldn't stop for that branch. It should just keep going, allowing the other branch to potentially succeed. So, I'd configure the `onError` parameter for this 'Sindnei-AI Dev' node to `continueRegularOutput`. This is a really important setting for a router like this, as you don't want a single failed endpoint to halt the entire process.\n\nNow for the second HTTP Request node, named 'Sindnei-AI Prod'. This would be very similar to the 'Dev' one. Its `name` would be 'Sindnei-AI Prod', and its `url` parameter would be set to the production URL: `https:\/\/n8n-main.codai.dev.br\/webhook\/sindney-ai-cxa`. Just like the first one, it needs to be a `POST` request, `sendBody` enabled, `specifyBody` as `json`, and its `jsonBody` also set to `={{ $json }}` to forward the original payload. And, just as importantly, its `onError` parameter would also be set to `continueRegularOutput` to ensure resilience and parallel processing even if one environment fails. I also notice in the JSON for this 'Prod' node, there's an `alwaysOutputData: true` setting. While it might not be strictly necessary for this router's function if nothing follows these nodes, it's a good practice if you want to ensure the node always produces an output item, even if the upstream item fails, or if there's no data coming in from the previous node. For a simple router that just fires and forgets, it's not the primary concern, but good to have if you later plan to add error logging or success\/failure indicators.\n\nFinally, I'd ensure the overall workflow settings match. The prompt says it should be \"inactive,\" so I'd make sure the workflow's `active` flag is set to `false`. And it needs to be \"tagged 'sindney-ai'\", so I'd add `sindney-ai` to the workflow's tags. That really wraps up the entire design for this specific router workflow. It's concise, resilient, and serves its purpose of parallel routing." } { "prompt": "Please generate an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFilePresentationbuilding\" that is triggered by a webhook, retrieves the content from a specified Google Doc, and then responds to the initial webhook with the full text content of that document.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFilePresentationbuilding\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"36a54e60-92fe-427b-8e79-cf9578a622a6\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1XH3IISQIrjUciGKE-78_ww2W4bBPyuVH99zm7f_R0HA\/view\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start designing this workflow based on the user's request. The goal is pretty clear: get a webhook, fetch a Google Doc's content, and then send that content back via the same webhook.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states it should be \"triggered by a webhook.\" So, my very first step will be to add a **Webhook** node. This is the standard way to initiate an n8n workflow externally. I'll use `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` as its type, and the `typeVersion` is set to `2`. This `Webhook` node is going to sit right at the beginning of the workflow, at position `[0, 0]`, making it the entry point. When configuring it, I'll set its `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This is crucial because it tells the Webhook node *not* to respond immediately, but to wait for a subsequent `Respond to Webhook` node later in the workflow to send the actual response. This is exactly what we need, as we'll be retrieving data first before responding. A specific `path` would be configured here, which acts as the unique endpoint for this webhook.\n\nAlright, so we've got the trigger. Now, what's next? The prompt says we need to \"retrieve the content from a specified Google Doc.\" This immediately tells me I'm going to need a node that can interact with Google Docs. The obvious choice here is the **Google Docs** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and `typeVersion` is `2`. I'll connect this node directly from the \"Webhook\" node's `main` output to its `main` input. The `Google Docs` node will be positioned at `[220, 0]`, keeping a nice linear flow.\n\nWhen configuring this `Google Docs` node, the primary `operation` it needs to perform is `get`. We're not creating, updating, or deleting; we're *getting* the content of an existing document. A `documentURL` parameter would be set to point to the specific Google Doc we want to retrieve. This is where the workflow knows *which* document to fetch. Of course, to access Google Docs, this node will require credentials, so a `googleDocsOAuth2Api` credential would be set up and associated with this node. Without proper authentication, it won't be able to access the document. The output of this `Google Docs` node, when the `get` operation is successful, will contain the document's content, typically in a field like `content`.\n\nNow that we've retrieved the document's content, the final step, according to the prompt, is to \"respond to the initial webhook with the full text content of that document.\" This is where the `Respond to Webhook` node comes in. It's designed specifically for this purpose: to send a response back to the webhook that initially triggered the workflow. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, and `typeVersion` is `1.1`. I'll connect the `main` output of the \"Google Docs\" node to the `main` input of this \"Respond to Webhook\" node, positioning it at `[440, 0]`.\n\nFor the \"Respond to Webhook\" node's configuration, I need to specify how it should respond and with what data. The prompt asks for \"full text content,\" so I'll set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`. And for the `responseBody`, I'll use an expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This is how we take the `content` field that came out of the \"Google Docs\" node (which contains the full text of the document) and use it as the body of the webhook response. The `Google Docs` node's output structure would have a field named `content` containing the extracted text, which this expression then directly accesses. This completes the loop, sending the document's text back to the original caller of the webhook." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, uses the uProc node to take a full-page screenshot of `https:\/\/n8n.io`, and then sends that screenshot as a photo via the Telegram node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"file\": \"={{$node[\\\"uProc\\\"].json[\\\"message\\\"][\\\"result\\\"]}}\", \"chatId\": \"\", \"operation\": \"sendPhoto\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegram\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/n8n.io\", \"tool\": \"getUrlScreenshot\", \"group\": \"image\", \"width\": \"1024\", \"fullpage\": \"yes\", \"additionalOptions\": {}}, \"name\": \"uProc\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.uproc\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"uProc\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"uProc\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down how I'd approach building this n8n workflow, thinking step by step, just like I'm putting it together from scratch.\n\nFirst off, looking at the user's request, the very first thing that jumps out is \"manually triggers.\" This immediately tells me what kind of node I need to start with. I'm going to reach for a trigger node that allows me to initiate the workflow with a click.\n\nSo, the first node I'd place on my canvas would be the **Manual Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to start a workflow on demand, exactly matching the \"manually triggers\" requirement. It doesn't need any specific parameters, it just sits there, waiting for me to hit 'execute'. I'd probably name it something straightforward like \"On clicking 'execute'\" as it clearly indicates its function.\n\nNext, the prompt states \"uses the uProc node to take a full-page screenshot of `https:\/\/n8n.io`.\" This gives me my next critical component: the uProc node. It's an action node that needs to be triggered by something, so it makes perfect sense for it to connect directly after my manual trigger. The `On clicking 'execute'` node will simply pass its \"start\" signal to the uProc node.\n\nSo, I'd drag out a **uProc** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.uproc`, and `typeVersion` is `1`. Now, how do I configure this node to meet the requirements?\n* The prompt explicitly says \"screenshot of `https:\/\/n8n.io`\". So, for the `url` parameter, I would set it to `https:\/\/n8n.io`. Simple and direct.\n* It also says \"take a full-page screenshot.\" The uProc node offers different \"tools\" and \"groups.\" For taking a screenshot, the `tool` parameter `getUrlScreenshot` is the obvious choice. This tool generally falls under the `image` `group`, so I'd set that accordingly.\n* \"Full-page\" is a specific option. Looking at the parameters, I see a `fullpage` option, which I would set to `yes`. This ensures the entire scrollable content of the page is captured, not just what's visible in the viewport.\n* The JSON also specifies a `width` of `1024`. This is a common resolution for screenshots, providing a good balance between detail and file size. I'd set this to `1024`.\n* Finally, for credentials, the uProc node would require some `uprocApi` credentials to authenticate with the uProc service. These would be configured separately, typically an API key or similar. I wouldn't specify the actual key, just that it needs to be provided.\n\nNow that I have the screenshot, what's the last step? The prompt says \"and then sends that screenshot as a photo via the Telegram node.\" This means my next and final node will be a Telegram node, and it needs to receive the screenshot data from the uProc node.\n\nSo, I'd connect the **uProc** node's `main` output to the input of a new **Telegram** node. This establishes the data flow: the uProc node will execute, generate the screenshot, and then pass that result to the Telegram node.\n\nThe Telegram node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.telegram`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. Let's configure it:\n* The request is to send it \"as a photo.\" So, I'd set the `operation` parameter to `sendPhoto`.\n* This is where the data flow becomes critical. The Telegram node needs the actual file content or URL of the screenshot. The uProc node, when using `getUrlScreenshot`, typically outputs the resulting image's URL or base64 data within its JSON output. The JSON provided gives me a hint: `file: ={{$node[\"uProc\"].json[\"message\"][\"result\"]}}`. This tells me that the uProc node places the relevant file data (likely the URL to the screenshot it generated) inside its `json` output, specifically at `message.result`. So, I'd use this expression to dynamically fetch the screenshot file path from the previous uProc node's output. This is how the screenshot generated by uProc gets handed over to Telegram.\n* The `chatId` parameter is essential for Telegram, as it specifies *who* receives the photo. This would be configured with a specific recipient's chat ID. It's sensitive information, so I'd just state that the chat ID needs to be provided here.\n* And finally, just like uProc, the Telegram node requires `telegramApi` credentials to authenticate with the Telegram bot API. These would be set up beforehand, likely a bot token.\n\nAnd with that, the workflow is complete. It starts manually, takes a full-page screenshot using uProc, and then sends that screenshot via Telegram, with each node passing the necessary information along. The connections ensure a linear execution from trigger to the final action." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with a POST Webhook on path `23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201` that connects to a Set node.

The request is quite specific: a POST Webhook, a particular path, and then connecting that to a Set node, with some test data for the Webhook.\n\nSo, the very first thing that comes to mind is how this workflow is going to *start*. It needs to be triggered by an external event, and the prompt clearly states \"a POST Webhook.\" This immediately tells me I need a Webhook node as my entry point. It's the standard way to expose an HTTP endpoint in n8n and receive incoming requests. I'll pick the `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, with `typeVersion: 1`, as that's the current stable version for webhooks.\n\nNow, how should this Webhook node be configured? The prompt specifies it should be a `POST` method, so I'll set its `httpMethod` parameter to `\"POST\"`. And it provides a very specific path: `23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201`. So, I'll put that into the `path` parameter. I also notice in the JSON that `webhookId` is set to the same value as the path. This is often how n8n manages unique webhook identifiers, especially when the path itself is a UUID, which this looks like. For the `options`, it looks like there are no special ones needed right now, so I'll leave that empty.\n\nThe prompt also mentions test data: a JSON body `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`. When I'm thinking about testing, especially with a Webhook, it's crucial to simulate the exact input the workflow expects. The `pinData` in the provided JSON shows exactly that: a `body` with `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`. This means that when I run a test, the Webhook node will receive this specific JSON payload, along with typical headers like `content-type: application\/json`, and it will be processed as if a real external request came in. This is super helpful for quickly verifying the initial data flow.\n\nAlright, so the Webhook is set up to receive the trigger. What's next? The prompt says it \"connects to a Set node.\" This is straightforward. After the Webhook successfully receives data, I need to pass that data along to the next step. A Set node is a good general-purpose node. I'd typically use a Set node (`n8n-nodes-base.set`, `typeVersion: 1`) if I wanted to add, modify, or remove data fields as the data flows through the workflow. In this specific case, looking at the JSON, the Set node's `parameters` for `options` are just an empty object `{}`. This means it's not actually adding or modifying any data fields at this point. It's essentially acting as a pass-through, receiving the data from the Webhook. This could be useful if I plan to add data manipulation later, or if I simply want a placeholder node to ensure the data is successfully flowing from the Webhook to *something*. It acts as a point where I could inspect the incoming data in a live execution.\n\nFinally, the connection. The Webhook needs to flow its output directly into the Set node. In n8n, this is represented by the `connections` object. I see `Webhook` is connected to `Set` on its `main` output to the `main` input of the Set node, which is the default and most common way to link nodes to pass the primary data. So, the data received by the Webhook (including that test body) will be passed directly to the Set node for further processing, even if that processing is currently just a passthrough.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it. The Webhook listens, the Set node receives and effectively passes through the data. Simple, direct, and meets all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers when a new worker is created in Onfleet and sends a Slack message \"A new driver has signed up!\" to the `#new-driver-signup` channel.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerOn\": \"workerCreated\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Onfleet Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.onfleetTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"A new driver has signed up!\", \"channel\": \"#new-driver-signup\", \"attachments\": [], \"otherOptions\": {}}, \"name\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.slack\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Onfleet Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's break down how I'd approach building this n8n workflow, thinking step by step, just like I'm sitting down to design it from scratch.\n\nFirst, I look at the user's prompt: \"Generate an n8n workflow that triggers when a new worker is created in Onfleet and sends a Slack message 'A new driver has signed up!' to the `#new-driver-signup` channel.\"\n\nRight away, I identify two main components:\n1. **A trigger event**: Something happens in Onfleet (new worker created).\n2. **An action**: Send a message to Slack.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need in any workflow is a trigger. How do I know when a new worker is created in Onfleet? I'll need a node that can listen for events from Onfleet.\n\nLooking at the provided JSON, I see the first node is named \"Onfleet Trigger\" and its type is `n8n-nodes-base.onfleetTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This looks perfect! This specific node is designed to integrate with Onfleet and, importantly, listen for events. It's exactly what I need to start the workflow. I wouldn't really consider other trigger types here because the prompt explicitly mentions Onfleet. If there wasn't a dedicated Onfleet node, I might think about a generic Webhook node, but since there is one, it's the most straightforward and reliable option.\n\nNow, how do I configure this \"Onfleet Trigger\" node?\nThe `parameters` are key here. I see `triggerOn: \"workerCreated\"`. This is absolutely crucial. It tells the Onfleet Trigger node *exactly* what kind of event it should be listening for. The user prompt says \"when a new worker is created,\" so this parameter perfectly aligns with that requirement. `additionalFields` is empty, which just means there are no other specific filtering or data requirements for this trigger.\nFor `credentials`, it shows `onfleetApi`. This tells me that this node needs to authenticate with Onfleet. So, I would know to set up an Onfleet API key in n8n's credentials section to allow the workflow to receive these events securely. I wouldn't put the actual API key in the workflow itself, but rather reference a saved credential. The `webhookId` is something n8n would manage internally once the webhook is registered with Onfleet; I don't need to manually set that during design.\n\nSo, now I have my trigger in place. What's the next step? The prompt says \"sends a Slack message 'A new driver has signed up!' to the `#new-driver-signup` channel.\"\n\nThis clearly points to a Slack node. I'd look for an integration that can send messages to Slack.\nIn the JSON, the second node is named \"Slack\" and its type is `n8n-nodes-base.slack` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is precisely the node I'd pick for this task. It's the dedicated node for interacting with Slack, making it simple to send messages. There isn't really a simpler way to send a Slack message in n8n than using the dedicated Slack node.\n\nHow do I configure this \"Slack\" node?\nUnder `parameters`, I see `text: \"A new driver has signed up!\"`. This matches the exact message the user wants to send. Then, `channel: \"#new-driver-signup\"`. Again, this directly corresponds to the target channel specified in the prompt. `attachments` and `otherOptions` are empty, meaning we're just sending a plain text message without any fancy formatting or additional components, which is exactly what the prompt asks for.\nFor `credentials`, it lists `slackApi`. Just like with Onfleet, this indicates that I'd need to have Slack API credentials (like an OAuth token or bot token) configured in n8n for this node to successfully post messages to the specified Slack channel.\n\nFinally, how do these two nodes connect?\nThe `connections` section in the JSON shows `{\"Onfleet Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means that the `main` output of the \"Onfleet Trigger\" node connects directly to the `main` input of the \"Slack\" node. This makes perfect sense. Once the Onfleet trigger fires (meaning a new worker is created), the workflow should immediately proceed to send the Slack message. There's no intermediate logic, data transformation, or filtering needed between these two steps, so a direct connection is the most efficient and logical path. The data from the Onfleet trigger, while not directly used in the content of *this particular* Slack message, still flows through to initiate the Slack action." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, followed by a 'Set' node, and then a 'Set1' node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"ff739753-9d6e-46a7-94d3-25bd03dd4973\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow put together. The request is pretty clear: we need an inactive workflow that kicks off manually, then goes through a couple of 'Set' operations.\n\nFirst things first, I'd give this workflow a descriptive name. Looking at the JSON, it's got a unique ID as its name for now, `ff739753-9d6e-46a7-94d3-25bd03dd4973`, which is fine for internal use but I'd usually pick something more human-readable like \"Manual Data Flow Example\" or \"Initial Set Workflow.\" More importantly, the prompt specifically asks for an *inactive* workflow. So, I'll make sure the `active` property is set to `false` right from the start, as indicated in the provided JSON. This means it won't execute until someone explicitly activates it.\n\nNow, onto the actual nodes. Every workflow needs a trigger, and this one is straightforward: a manual start.\n\nSo, the first node I'll add will be the **Manual Trigger** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThis `manualTrigger` node (named \"On clicking 'execute'\" in the JSON) is perfect because the user wants to initiate the workflow by clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n UI. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters for this basic setup, as seen by the empty `parameters` object `{}`. It simply acts as the entry point, providing an initial empty item to start the flow. I'd typically place it on the left side of my canvas, ready for the flow to move right. The `pinData` shows `{\"start\": true}`, which confirms its role as the starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"followed by a 'Set' node.\" So, after our manual trigger, we'll need a node that can manipulate or create data. The 'Set' node is the go-to for this.\n\nI'll connect the output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the input of this new 'Set' node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThis node is named \"Set\" in the JSON. Its primary purpose is to add, modify, or remove data fields in the incoming items. In this particular JSON, its `parameters` object also shows `{\"options\": {}}` which means it's not actually adding or modifying any specific data fields right now. It's just acting as a passthrough, perhaps as a placeholder for future data manipulation or just to demonstrate the flow structure. For instance, if I wanted to add a field like `myField` with a value `Hello World`, I'd configure that within its parameters. But for now, it's an empty Set operation. This `typeVersion: 1` indicates a stable, standard version of the node. If there were a `typeVersion: 2` available, it might introduce new features or change how certain data types are handled, but for a basic set, `v1` is usually sufficient. I'd position it to the right of the trigger node, keeping the workflow visual flow clear. The `connections` entry confirms this: `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies \"and then a 'Set1' node.\" This means we'll add another 'Set' node, linked directly from the first one.\n\nSo, I'll connect the output of the \"Set\" node to the input of this new 'Set1' node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThis node is named \"Set1\" in the JSON. Just like the previous 'Set' node, it's also a `set` node of `typeVersion: 1`. It also has empty parameters `{\"options\": {}}`, meaning it's not performing any actual data transformations at this moment. It serves the same purpose as the previous 'Set' node \u2013 capable of adding or modifying data \u2013 and just demonstrates a sequential step in the workflow. Its position is further to the right, completing the linear flow. The `connections` clearly define this link: `\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This completes the requested sequence: Manual Trigger -> Set -> Set1.\n\nAt this point, the workflow matches all the requirements: it's inactive, starts with a manual trigger, and is followed by two 'Set' nodes in sequence. The `hash`, `id`, `meta`, and `tags` are internal n8n system properties that get generated automatically to manage the workflow, so I wouldn't explicitly configure them, but they're important for n8n to keep track of the workflow internally." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that manually triggers, shortens the URL 'https:\/\/medium.com\/n8n-io\/sending-sms-the-low-code-way-with-airtable-twilio-programmable-sms-and-n8n-90dbde74223e?source=---------4-----------------------' with the title 'Sending SMS the Low-Code Way with Airtable, Twilio Programmable SMS, and n8n' using Yourls, and then retrieves statistics for the newly generated short URL.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [370, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/medium.com\/n8n-io\/sending-sms-the-low-code-way-with-airtable-twilio-programmable-sms-and-n8n-90dbde74223e?source=---------4-----------------------\", \"additionalFields\": {\"title\": \"Sending SMS the Low-Code Way with Airtable, Twilio Programmable SMS, and n8n\"}}, \"name\": \"Yourls\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.yourls\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [570, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"shortUrl\": \"={{$node[\\\"Yourls\\\"].json[\\\"shorturl\\\"]}}\", \"operation\": \"stats\"}, \"name\": \"Yourls1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.yourls\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [770, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Yourls\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Yourls1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Yourls\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow from scratch based on the user's request and the provided JSON.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, something to kick it off. The user prompt specifies \"manually triggers.\" So, my mind immediately goes to a trigger node that I can initiate with a click.\n\nFor that, I'd choose the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. Its typeVersion is `1`. This node is perfect because it literally creates a button in the n8n editor that, when clicked, starts the workflow. It's simple, direct, and exactly what's needed for a manual execution. There are no specific parameters to configure for this node; it just serves as the initial spark.\n\nAlright, so the workflow is triggered. What's the very next thing we need to do according to the prompt? It's to \"shorten the URL... using Yourls.\" This clearly indicates we need a Yourls node.\n\nI'd add an `n8n-nodes-base.yourls` node, with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is designed specifically to interact with a Yourls instance, which is precisely what the user wants for shortening URLs.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Yourls node?\nThe primary operation here is to shorten a URL, so I'd leave the `operation` parameter as its default, which is typically \"Shorten URL.\"\nFor the `url` parameter, the prompt provides the exact long URL: 'https:\/\/medium.com\/n8n-io\/sending-sms-the-low-code-way-with-airtable-twilio-programmable-sms-and-n8n-90dbde74223e?source=---------4-----------------------'. I would input that directly into the URL field.\nThe prompt also mentions a `title`: 'Sending SMS the Low-Code Way with Airtable, Twilio Programmable SMS, and n8n'. This isn't a main parameter but is usually an \"additional field\" or option when shortening. So, I'd look for an \"additionalFields\" section or similar, and within that, I'd set the `title` parameter to the provided string. This ensures the short URL gets a descriptive title in Yourls.\nCrucially, for this Yourls node to function, it needs to connect to a Yourls service. This would involve providing credentials. In n8n, this is handled via a `credentials` field, where a pre-configured API key or access token for the Yourls instance would be selected. I wouldn't input actual sensitive values here, just link to the configured Yourls API credential.\n\nNow that the URL is shortened, what's the next step? The prompt states: \"and then retrieves statistics for the newly generated short URL.\" This means we need another interaction with Yourls, but this time to get stats, not to shorten.\n\nSo, I'd add another `n8n-nodes-base.yourls` node, again `typeVersion: 1`. This is the same node type as before because we're interacting with the same service, but with a different purpose.\n\nHow do I configure this second Yourls node?\nIts `operation` parameter would be set to \"Stats\" (or \"Retrieve Statistics,\" depending on the exact wording in the node interface).\nThe most important part is telling it *which* short URL to get statistics for. Since the previous Yourls node just generated this short URL, I need to dynamically pass that information. I'd use an expression to reference the output of the *first* Yourls node. Specifically, the short URL generated by the previous node would be available in its output JSON. So, for the `shortUrl` parameter, I'd set it up like `={{$node[\"Yourls\"].json[\"shorturl\"]}}`. This expression tells n8n to look at the data output by the node named \"Yourls\" (the first one) and specifically extract the value of the `shorturl` key from its JSON output. This is a very common pattern in n8n for chaining operations.\nJust like the previous Yourls node, this one also needs credentials to connect to the Yourls service. It would reference the same Yourls API credential as the first Yourls node, ensuring it can communicate with the correct Yourls instance.\n\nFinally, let's connect these nodes.\nThe `On clicking 'execute'` node would connect its main output to the input of the first `Yourls` node. This means when the workflow is manually triggered, the execution flow goes directly to the URL shortening step.\nThen, the first `Yourls` node (the one that shortens the URL) would connect its main output to the input of the second `Yourls` node (the one that retrieves statistics). This ensures that once the URL is successfully shortened, the workflow automatically proceeds to get its statistics, and crucially, the output from the first node (which includes the new short URL) is available for the second node to use.\n\nAnd that's it. This setup precisely follows the user's request: manual trigger, shorten URL with title using Yourls, and then retrieve stats for that newly created short URL." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with a 'Manual Trigger' node named 'When clicking Execute workflow' at [0,0] that connects to an 'Execute Workflow' node at [500,240].

The prompt specifically asks for a 'Manual Trigger'. This is perfect because it allows us to start the workflow with a simple click in the n8n UI, and it also lets us define specific data to be passed into the workflow right from the start.\n\nI'd place this 'Manual Trigger' node first, naturally, at the beginning of our workflow. The prompt specifies its position at `[0,0]`, which is the standard starting point. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is indeed `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. Its name is set to \"When clicking \u2018Execute workflow\u2019\", which is clear and descriptive, directly matching the prompt.\n\nNow, for the really interesting part of this 'Manual Trigger' node: the `pinData`. This `pinData` field is how we pre-configure the data that this trigger node will output when it runs. It's incredibly useful for testing or for workflows where you always want a specific set of initial inputs without having to manually type them in every time.\n\nFrom the JSON, I see `pinData` is an array containing two objects. This means that when the workflow is executed manually, it will essentially run twice, once for each object, pushing each set of data down the workflow.\n\nLet's break down the data for the first item in `pinData`:\n* `aaString`: This is a simple string, \"A String\". Straightforward text data.\n* `aaNumber`: This is a number, `1`. Good for numerical operations.\n* `aaArray`: This is an array `[1, true, \"3\"]`. It demonstrates that arrays can hold mixed data types, which is very flexible.\n* `aaObject`: This is an object `{\"aKey\": -1}`. Perfect for structured data with key-value pairs.\n* `aaAny`: This is an empty object `{}`. The `aaAny` type is quite broad, allowing for any JSON-compatible structure. An empty object is a valid example.\n\nThe second item in `pinData` shows similar fields but with different values, again demonstrating how multiple distinct data sets can be provided:\n* `aaString`: \"Another String\"\n* `aaNumber`: `2`\n* `aaArray`: An empty array `[]`. This is also a valid array value.\n* `aaObject`: `{\"aDifferentKey\": -1}`. A different key this time, just to show variety.\n* `aaAny`: An empty array `[]`. Again, showing `aaAny` can hold different types of data, in this case, an empty array.\n\nThis `pinData` setup is crucial for meeting the prompt's requirements for the manual trigger. It ensures that specific, pre-defined inputs are available to subsequent nodes.\n\nNext, the prompt asks us to connect this trigger to an 'Execute Workflow' node. This node is used when you want to call another n8n workflow as a sub-workflow, kind of like calling a function. It helps in modularizing complex processes.\n\nI'd place this 'Execute Workflow' node downstream from our 'Manual Trigger'. The prompt specifies its position at `[500,240]`, so I'll position it there. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow` and its `typeVersion` is `1.2`. The name is simply \"Execute Workflow\", as requested.\n\nLooking at its parameters, for `workflowId`, the JSON shows it's an empty object `{}`. This means that if we were to actually use this in a real scenario to call a specific sub-workflow, we would need to either manually select an existing workflow here, or potentially provide its ID dynamically through an expression if it were determined at runtime. For this setup, it's left generic.\n\nFor `workflowInputs`, the JSON sets `mappingMode` to \"defineBelow\". This indicates that any data passed *into* the sub-workflow being called would be explicitly defined within the `value` field. However, in this specific JSON, the `value` field under `workflowInputs` is an empty object `{}`. This means this specific 'Execute Workflow' node isn't configured to *map* specific fields *from its input* to specific fields *for the sub-workflow's input*. It would simply receive the items from the previous node. The important part here is that whatever the 'Manual Trigger' node outputs via its `pinData` will become the input for this 'Execute Workflow' node.\n\nFinally, we need to establish the connection between these two nodes. The 'Manual Trigger' node needs to pass its output (which is our `pinData`) to the 'Execute Workflow' node.\n\nThe `connections` object in the JSON shows \"When clicking \u2018Execute workflow\u2019\" connects via its `main` output to the \"Execute Workflow\" node, also via its `main` input. This is the standard way data flows between nodes in n8n. So, each of those two items defined in the `pinData` of the manual trigger will be processed, one by one, and passed as an item to the 'Execute Workflow' node. That node will then receive those items as its input, and if it were configured to call a specific sub-workflow, it would pass those items on to that sub-workflow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger. Connect this to a DebugHelper node configured to generate 100 items of random data with a seed of 0.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [780, 500]}, {\"parameters\": {\"category\": \"randomData\", \"randomDataSeed\": \"0\", \"randomDataCount\": 100}, \"name\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1000, 500]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow built. The user prompt is pretty clear about the starting point and the immediate next step, so that's where I'll focus my design.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a trigger, right? The prompt explicitly states \"starts with a manual trigger.\" That's easy enough. Looking at the JSON, I see a node defined with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect for what's requested. I'll drop that node onto the canvas. I like to name my nodes clearly, and this one is already pre-named \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" in the JSON, which is quite descriptive for a manual trigger. Its parameters are empty (`{}`), which is exactly what I'd expect for a basic manual trigger \u2013 it just waits for a click to start the workflow, no specific configuration needed beyond that. It's the simplest way to initiate a test run or a workflow that's manually controlled. I don't anticipate any different behavior with a different version of this node for such a basic function; it's quite fundamental.\n\nAlright, with our trigger in place, the prompt then tells us to \"Connect this to a DebugHelper node configured to generate 100 items of random data with a seed of 0.\" This sounds like a straightforward connection. I'll need to find the `debugHelper` node. In the JSON, I see a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is exactly what we need. The DebugHelper node is super versatile; it's great for inspecting data, pausing workflows, and, as in this case, generating mock data for testing.\n\nNow, for the configuration of this DebugHelper node. The prompt is very specific here: \"generate 100 items of random data with a seed of 0.\"\n* I'll need to look at its `parameters` in the JSON. I see `category: \"randomData\"`. This tells the DebugHelper node that its purpose in this instance isn't to simply pass through or inspect data, but to *create* random data. This aligns perfectly with the requirement.\n* Next, `randomDataCount: 100`. This directly matches the \"100 items\" requirement from the prompt. So, the node will output exactly 100 distinct items.\n* And finally, `randomDataSeed: \"0\"`. This is crucial for reproducibility. By setting a seed, like `0` here, we ensure that every time this workflow runs with these settings, the \"random\" data generated will be exactly the same. This is incredibly useful for debugging and testing, as it allows us to consistently work with the same dataset. Without a seed, the data would change every run, making it harder to pinpoint issues.\n\nNow, for the connection between these two nodes. The `connections` section of the JSON clarifies this: `\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This means the primary output of the \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" (our manual trigger) should connect directly to the primary input of the \"DebugHelper\" node. This is standard; the trigger fires, sends a single, empty item (or a very basic one) down the line, and the DebugHelper node then receives that signal and proceeds to generate its 100 items of random data. The data flow here is just a signal to \"start,\" rather than passing specific data *from* the trigger. The DebugHelper node acts largely independently once it receives the activation signal.\n\nSo, to summarize the flow: a user clicks the \"Test workflow\" button, which activates the manual trigger. This trigger then sends its signal to the DebugHelper node. Upon receiving this signal, the DebugHelper node, configured for \"randomData\" generation, proceeds to output 100 items of consistent, seeded random data. This workflow seems complete and perfectly aligns with all the requirements of the prompt. No complex data mapping needed between these two; it's a simple, direct activation." } { "prompt": "Create an AI onboarding workflow that uses a webhook to retrieve a document from a specific Google Docs URL and responds to the webhook with its text content.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFile Setting Up Webhooks in AI Workflows\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"441e348f-8ec2-4823-8285-d4d8a3131f23\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1yoMCqP5TwQ7TD_OK20gcYETDRoTiTVzY4m5-Nh6RR5g\/view\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's break down this n8n workflow, thinking through it as if we're designing it step-by-step from scratch to meet the user's requirements. The prompt asks for an AI onboarding workflow that uses a webhook to retrieve a document from a specific Google Docs URL and then responds to that webhook with the document's text content.\n\n### First Node: The Entry Point\n\nThe very first thing we need for an \"AI onboarding workflow that uses a webhook\" is, naturally, a way to receive that initial trigger. So, the obvious choice for our starting point is a **Webhook** node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **Type Version:** `2`\n\nWhy this node? It's the standard entry point for any n8n workflow that needs to be triggered by an external HTTP request. It sets up an endpoint that other services or our AI system can call.\n\nNow, how do we configure it?\nWe'll need to define a `path` for the webhook, which essentially becomes a part of its unique URL. This allows us to have multiple webhooks active without conflicts. For instance, it might be something like `onboarding-document-request`.\n\nCrucially, the prompt says the workflow \"responds to the webhook with its text content.\" This means the `Webhook` node itself shouldn't send an immediate default response. Instead, it needs to wait for another node later in the workflow to formulate and send the response. This is handled by setting the `responseMode` parameter to `\"responseNode\"`. This tells the Webhook node, \"Hey, don't worry about responding right now; another node will take care of it.\" If we were to set it to \"lastNode\" or \"onReceived,\" the webhook would respond prematurely, which wouldn't work for our use case. The `options` here are empty, meaning we're sticking with the default behavior for headers, authentication, etc., which is fine for a basic setup.\n\n### Second Node: Retrieving the Document\n\nOnce our workflow is triggered by the webhook, the next logical step, according to the prompt, is to \"retrieve a document from a specific Google Docs URL.\" This immediately tells me we need a node that can interact with Google Docs.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`\n* **Type Version:** `2`\n\nThis is the perfect node for the job as it's purpose-built for integrating with Google Docs. It's connected directly from the `Webhook` node, meaning as soon as the webhook receives a call, it passes execution on to this Google Docs node.\n\nFor its configuration:\nThe `operation` parameter needs to be set to what we want to do with the document. Since we need to \"retrieve\" it, the `get` operation is the correct choice. Other operations like 'create', 'update', or 'delete' wouldn't fit the requirement.\n\nThen, we'd specify the `documentURL`. This is where the specific Google Docs link, like the one mentioned in the prompt (though we won't put the actual value here), would be entered. This URL tells the node exactly which document to fetch.\n\nFinally, for any Google service integration, we'll need `credentials`. A Google Docs OAuth2 API credential would be provided here. This securely handles the authentication and authorization required for n8n to access the user's Google Drive and specific Google Docs file. Without this, the node wouldn't have permission to retrieve the document.\n\n### Third Node: Responding to the Webhook\n\nAfter the `Google Docs` node successfully retrieves the document, the last part of the prompt is to \"respond to the webhook with its text content.\" This means we need a specific node designed to send that final response back to the initial webhook caller.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`\n* **Type Version:** `1.1`\n\nThis node is the designated partner for the `Webhook` node when its `responseMode` is set to \"responseNode.\" It's directly connected from the `Google Docs` node, so it receives the output of that node. The Google Docs node, when performing a 'get' operation, typically outputs the document's content, often in a field like `content`.\n\nLet's configure it:\nThe `respondWith` parameter needs to be set to `text`, as the prompt specifically asks for the \"text content.\" We could choose JSON, binary data, or HTML, but `text` is what's required here.\n\nThe crucial part is the `responseBody`. This is where we tell the node *what* text to send back. The `Google Docs` node's output will contain the document's content. We use an n8n expression here: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression dynamically retrieves the value of the `content` field from the JSON output of the previous node (the `Google Docs` node) and inserts it directly as the body of our webhook response. This ensures that the exact text from the Google Doc is returned.\n\nThe `options` are empty, indicating no special headers or status codes are being set beyond the defaults, which is perfectly fine for simply returning text content.\n\nAnd with that, the workflow is complete! The incoming webhook triggers the document retrieval, and the retrieved content is then sent back as a response, fulfilling all aspects of the user's request." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that starts with a \"When chat message received\" trigger. Connect this to a Set node named \"Node 1\" that outputs `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`, and then connect \"Node 1\" to another Set node named \"Node 2\" that outputs `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"When chat message received\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [320, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_1\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_2\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [580, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_3\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_4\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, -380]}], \"connections\": {\"When chat message received\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Node 1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this workflow based on the user's request and the provided n8n workflow JSON.\n\nFirst, I need to identify the very beginning of our workflow, the trigger point. The user explicitly stated, \"starts with a \"When chat message received\" trigger.\" Looking at the JSON, I can see a node named \"When chat message received\".\n\n* **Node Type**: `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger`\n* **Type Version**: `1.1`\n\nThis looks like the perfect trigger for our workflow. It's designed to activate when a chat message comes in, which directly matches the user's requirement. I'd place this as the first node in the workflow canvas. Its parameters show `options: {}`, meaning it's configured with its default settings, which is fine for a basic chat trigger. No specific chat platform or advanced options are specified, so the default is sufficient to just get it started and listening.\n\nNext, the user wants this trigger connected to a Set node named \"Node 1\".\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version**: `3.4`\n\nA Set node is an excellent choice here. The request is very specific: \"outputs `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`\". A Set node allows us to define custom data to be passed down the workflow, either by adding to existing data or, as in this case, creating a new, fixed JSON object.\n\nSo, I'd drag a Set node onto the canvas and connect its `main` output from the \"When chat message received\" node to its `main` input. Then, I'd configure \"Node 1\". The JSON shows `mode: \"raw\"` and `jsonOutput` set to `{\\n \"this_my_field_1\": \"value\",\\n \"this_my_field_2\": 1\\n}`. This is exactly what we need. By setting the mode to \"raw\" and providing the JSON directly, the node will output precisely that object, fulfilling the requirement perfectly. The `typeVersion` `3.4` is standard for a Set node and handles this functionality well.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"then connect \"Node 1\" to another Set node named \"Node 2\" that outputs `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`.\"\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version**: `3.4`\n\nAnother Set node! This makes sense. The user wants a second, distinct set of data to be generated and passed along, and a Set node is ideal for this. It's very similar to \"Node 1\" in its purpose but with different data.\n\nI'd add a new Set node to the canvas, name it \"Node 2\", and connect the `main` output of \"Node 1\" to the `main` input of \"Node 2\". For its configuration, just like \"Node 1\", the JSON indicates `mode: \"raw\"` and `jsonOutput` is set to `{\\n \"this_my_field_3\": \"value\",\\n \"this_my_field_4\": 1\\n}`. This directly creates the specified output. Again, `typeVersion` `3.4` is perfectly suitable for this.\n\nSo, the flow is straightforward: a chat message comes in, which triggers \"Node 1\" to create its specific data. Then, that data (or rather, the execution flow, as \"Node 2\" overwrites the output with its own raw JSON) passes to \"Node 2\", which creates *its* specific data. The workflow seems complete according to the user's prompt. The connections are all `main` to `main`, ensuring the sequence of operations. It's a very simple, linear workflow for setting specific data points." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow starting with a Manual Trigger node connected to an n8n node.

The prompt is pretty clear about what we need: a manual trigger, and then an n8n node to manage credentials. This sounds like a straightforward two-node workflow, which is a great starting point for many automation tasks.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a way to kick it off, right? The user prompt explicitly asks for a \"Manual Trigger node.\" This is perfect for testing or for workflows that you want to initiate manually from the n8n interface.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a `Manual Trigger` node. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is ideal because, as its name suggests, it allows the workflow to be executed simply by clicking a \"Test workflow\" button, or by receiving a manual signal, making it incredibly convenient for development and on-demand execution. There aren't really any specific parameters to configure for this node; its purpose is purely to initiate the workflow, so the `parameters` block is empty, which makes sense.\n\nOnce the `Manual Trigger` node is in place, the prompt tells us it needs to be \"connected to an n8n node.\" This implies that the output of our trigger will feed directly into the n8n node, passing the initial signal to start processing.\n\nNow, for the core logic: the `n8n` node. This node is fascinating because it allows an n8n workflow to interact with *another* n8n instance, or even the same n8n instance, via its API. This is powerful for tasks like managing workflows, credentials, executions, or users programmatically. Based on the JSON, the node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.n8n` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is exactly what we need to perform operations *within* n8n itself.\n\nThe prompt specified configuring this `n8n` node to \"manage credentials.\" This tells me what operation the node should perform. In the `parameters` of the `n8n` node, I see `resource: \"credential\"`. This confirms that the node is indeed set up to interact with the credential management part of n8n's API.\n\nThen, within that `credential` resource, the prompt further specifies details for managing a credential: `name: \"123\"` and `credentialTypeName: \"123\"`. These parameters define which specific credential we're looking to manage or interact with. It's likely an operation like creating, updating, or retrieving details about a credential with these particular identifiers. The exact action (like `create`, `update`, `get`) isn't explicitly shown in the provided JSON for the `n8n` node's `parameters`, but these `resource` and specific credential fields clearly set the context for such an operation. For instance, if we were creating a credential, these would be the values we'd assign to the new credential. If we were retrieving, these would be filter criteria.\n\nFinally, a crucial part of interacting with any API, especially n8n's own API, is authentication. The prompt states the n8n node should \"use the 'n8n account' (ID 10) API credential.\" Looking at the JSON for the `n8n` node, there's a `credentials` block, and within it, `n8nApi` is configured. This `n8nApi` property points to a specific credential, identified by its ID and name, in this case, a credential that allows the node to authenticate with the n8n API. This is where an actual API key or token would be securely stored and linked to this node, enabling it to make authorized requests. It's great that n8n handles this separation, so the sensitive authentication details aren't directly in the workflow parameters but managed as a separate, reusable credential object.\n\nNow, connecting these two nodes. The `connections` block shows that the `main` output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" (the Manual Trigger) is connected to the `main` input of the \"n8n\" node. This is the standard flow: the trigger fires, and its output (usually an empty item, or a single item with a timestamp) is passed along to the n8n node, initiating its operation. It's a simple, direct connection, exactly what's needed for this linear workflow.\n\nSo, to summarize, the workflow kicks off manually, and then the n8n node immediately takes over, performing an action related to credential management, using a pre-configured API credential for authorization. Seems like a solid plan for what the user requested." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow named \"Daily Text Affirmations\" that triggers daily at 9 AM, fetches an affirmation from `https:\/\/affirmations.dev`, and sends it to Telegram as a message prefixed with \"Hey Daniel, here's your daily affirmation...\" using a Telegram API credential.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Daily Text Affirmations\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 9}]}}, \"name\": \"Cron\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cron\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [350, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/affirmations.dev\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [760, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"=Hey Daniel, here's your daily affirmation...\\n\\n{{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"affirmation\\\"]}}\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegram\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1140, 380]}], \"connections\": {\"Cron\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start thinking through how to build this \"Daily Text Affirmations\" workflow, piece by piece.\n\nFirst, I look at the overall goal: \"Create an N8n workflow named 'Daily Text Affirmations' that triggers daily at 9 AM, fetches an affirmation from `https:\/\/affirmations.dev`, and sends it to Telegram as a message prefixed with 'Hey Daniel, here's your daily affirmation...' using a Telegram API credential.\"\n\nRight, so the very first thing we need is a way to kick this off *daily at 9 AM*. For scheduled tasks in n8n, the go-to node is definitely a trigger node that handles time-based events.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a **Cron** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.cron`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Why suitable:** The Cron node is designed specifically for triggering workflows at regular intervals, whether it's hourly, daily, weekly, or at a very specific time. It's perfect for our \"daily at 9 AM\" requirement.\n* **Configuration:** Looking at the JSON, its `parameters` show `{\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 9}]}}`. This is exactly how you'd configure it. You'd set it to run daily, and then specify the hour as 9. We don't need to worry about minutes or seconds for this prompt, just the hour. This ensures the workflow starts precisely when Daniel expects his affirmation.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered by the Cron node, the next logical step is to get the actual affirmation. The prompt states it needs to \"fetch an affirmation from `https:\/\/affirmations.dev`\". To interact with external web services and fetch data from a URL, the standard n8n node is the HTTP Request node.\n\nSo, I'd connect the Cron node's output to an **HTTP Request** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Why suitable:** This node is essential for making web requests. We need to hit that `https:\/\/affirmations.dev` endpoint to retrieve the affirmation. It's versatile enough to handle various types of web interactions, but for a simple GET request, it's straightforward.\n* **Configuration:** The `parameters` for this node show `{\"url\": \"https:\/\/affirmations.dev\", \"options\": {}}`. This is exactly what we need. We just paste the URL of the affirmation API. Since it's a simple GET request to fetch data, we typically don't need many additional `options` unless there's authentication or specific headers required by the API, which isn't mentioned here, so leaving `options` empty is fine. When this node executes, it will fetch the affirmation, and the response from the API (which we can assume is JSON, given how it's used later) will be available for subsequent nodes.\n\nNow that we have the affirmation, thanks to the HTTP Request node, the final step is to \"send it to Telegram as a message prefixed with 'Hey Daniel, here's your daily affirmation...'\". This clearly indicates we need a Telegram node.\n\nSo, I'd connect the HTTP Request node's output to a **Telegram** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.telegram`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Why suitable:** The Telegram node is specifically designed for sending messages, files, and interacting with the Telegram Bot API. It's the perfect choice for sending a daily affirmation message to Daniel.\n* **Configuration:**\n * **Text Field:** This is the most crucial part for the message content. The `parameters` show `{\"text\": \"=Hey Daniel, here's your daily affirmation...\\n\\n{{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"affirmation\\\"]}}\", \"additionalFields\": {}}`. This uses an expression, indicated by the leading `=`.\n * The first part, `\"Hey Daniel, here's your daily affirmation...\\n\\n\"`, is the static prefix requested by the user, followed by two newline characters (`\\n\\n`) to ensure the affirmation itself appears on a new line and is clearly separated.\n * The second part, `{{$node[\\\"HTTP Request\\\"].json[\\\"affirmation\\\"]}}`, is where the magic happens. This is an n8n expression that dynamically pulls data from the previous \"HTTP Request\" node. It specifically looks into the `json` output of that node and extracts the value associated with the key `affirmation`. This implies that the `https:\/\/affirmations.dev` API returns a JSON object with a key named `affirmation`, holding the actual text. This is a powerful way to pass specific pieces of data between nodes.\n * **Credentials:** The `credentials` part shows `{\"telegramApi\": \"Telegram Token\"}`. This means that a pre-configured Telegram API credential, which holds the necessary authentication token for the Telegram bot, would be selected here. This allows the n8n workflow to securely connect to the Telegram API without exposing the sensitive token directly in the workflow's node configuration. We'd have set this up once in n8n's credentials section.\n\nAnd that completes the flow.

The goal is pretty straightforward: kick things off manually, then manipulate some data fields across two steps.\n\nSo, first things first, every workflow needs a starting point. The request specifically mentions a \"manual trigger\". This is perfect because it means we want to initiate the workflow ourselves, typically by clicking a button in the n8n UI, for testing or specific one-off executions.\n\nLooking at the JSON, the first node confirms this: it's a `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node, with `typeVersion` 1. That's exactly what we need. I'll place this node as the very beginning of our flow. Its name is automatically set to \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", which is descriptive enough for a trigger. There are no special parameters to configure for a basic manual trigger, so we can just leave its parameters empty, as shown in the JSON. This node will essentially just create an empty item to pass along, allowing the workflow to start.\n\nNext, the prompt says to connect this trigger to a \"Set\" node named \"Edit Fields1\". A \"Set\" node is incredibly useful in n8n for exactly what its name implies: setting or modifying data fields within the workflow's item. This is crucial for creating new data, or updating existing data, that subsequent nodes will use.\n\nSo, after our manual trigger, I'll drag out a `n8n-nodes-base.set` node. According to the JSON, its `typeVersion` is 3.4. It's important to use the correct version, as subtle behaviors or available options can sometimes change between versions, although for a simple \"Set\" node like this, it's usually quite stable. I'll connect the \"main\" output of our manual trigger directly to the \"main\" input of this new \"Set\" node.\n\nNow for the configuration of \"Edit Fields1\". The prompt states it \"creates a field `message` with the value 'hello there'\". Inside the \"Set\" node, under its parameters, we'll find an \"Assignments\" section. Here, we can add new fields or modify existing ones. I'll add an assignment, name the field `message`, and set its value to the string \"hello there\". The JSON confirms this: `name: \"message\"`, `value: \"hello there\"`, and `type: \"string\"`. This ensures that when an item passes through this node, it will emerge with a new `message` field containing \"hello there\".\n\nFinally, the request says to connect \"Edit Fields1\" to *another* \"Set\" node, named \"Repro1\". This indicates a sequential flow where the output of the first \"Set\" node becomes the input for the second. This is a common pattern in n8n for step-by-step data transformation.\n\nSo, I'll add another `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, again with `typeVersion` 3.4. I'll name this one \"Repro1\" as requested. The connection will go from the \"main\" output of \"Edit Fields1\" to the \"main\" input of \"Repro1\".\n\nThe core task for \"Repro1\" is to \"set a field `test` to the value of the `message` field from the previous step.\" This is where n8n's expression capabilities come in handy. Inside the \"Repro1\" node's parameters, under \"Assignments\", I'll add another field. This time, the field's `name` will be `test`. For its `value`, instead of a static string, I need to reference the `message` field that was created by the \"Edit Fields1\" node. The standard way to access data from the incoming item is using expressions. The JSON confirms the use of `={{ $json.message }}`. This expression specifically tells n8n to look at the incoming JSON data (`$json`) and extract the value of the `message` property from it. This ensures that the `test` field in \"Repro1\" will dynamically inherit whatever value was set for `message` in the preceding node, which in this case will be \"hello there\". And just like the previous field, its `type` will be `string`.\n\nAnd that should complete the workflow. It's a simple, linear flow designed to demonstrate data manipulation across distinct nodes, specifically using the \"Set\" node to inject and reference data." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow where an Error Trigger node sends a Slack message. The Slack message should dynamically include the name of the failed workflow and its execution URL, pulled from the Error Trigger's output.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"=\\ud83d\\udc1e What?!\\n*This execution{{$node[\\\"Error Trigger\\\"].json[\\\"workflow\\\"][\\\"name\\\"]}} went wrong*\\\\nWhy don't you go take a look {{$node[\\\"Error Trigger\\\"].json[\\\"execution\\\"][\\\"url\\\"]}}\", \"channel\": \"\", \"attachments\": [], \"otherOptions\": {}}, \"name\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.slack\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Error Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.errorTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Error Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow. The core requirement here is to catch errors from other workflows and then send a notification to Slack, specifically including details about the failed workflow itself.\n\nSo, first things first, we need a way to *listen* for errors. n8n has a dedicated node for exactly this purpose: the Error Trigger. This seems like the most logical starting point for our workflow. It's an event-based trigger, meaning it will activate whenever another workflow configured to send errors to it encounters a problem.\n\nI'll add the \"Error Trigger\" node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.errorTrigger`, and in this case, its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it's specifically designed to capture errors. Looking at its parameters in the JSON, it doesn't seem to require any specific configuration; it's quite simple in that regard. It just sits there, listening. I see `executeOnce` is `false`, which is good because we want it to trigger every time an error happens, not just once. And `alwaysOutputData` is `true`, which is important because we'll rely on its output later.\n\nNow that we have our trigger set up to catch errors, what's the next step? The prompt says we need to send a Slack message. So, naturally, the next node in our workflow should be a Slack node. This is what will actually perform the action of sending the message.\n\nI'll add the \"Slack\" node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.slack`, and its `typeVersion` is also `1`.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The Error Trigger node will, upon detecting an error, output data about that error. This output data needs to be passed to our Slack node so it can use that information to construct the message. So, we'll draw a connection from the \"Error Trigger\" node's `main` output to the \"Slack\" node's `main` input. This ensures the data flow is correct: error happens, Error Trigger catches it, and sends the details to Slack.\n\nLet's move on to configuring the \"Slack\" node, as this is where the dynamic content comes in.\n\nFirst, the Slack node will need credentials to connect to our Slack workspace. I see a `credentials` field, specifically for `slackApi`. This is where you would link or create an API credential that allows n8n to post messages to Slack. It's left empty in the JSON, so I'll just note that this would need to be configured with the appropriate Slack API token or OAuth details.\n\nNext, we need to specify where the message goes. There's a `channel` parameter. This would be configured with the name of the Slack channel where we want these error notifications to appear, like \"#workflow-errors\" or a specific team channel. Again, it's empty in the JSON, indicating it's a configuration point for the user.\n\nFinally, and most importantly for this specific request, is the `text` parameter. This is where we build the actual message content, and it needs to be dynamic. The prompt requires the message to include the name of the failed workflow and its execution URL, both pulled from the Error Trigger's output.\n\nThe `text` field in the JSON shows a templated string:\n`=\"\ud83d\udc1b What?!\\n*This execution{{$node[\\\"Error Trigger\\\"].json[\\\"workflow\\\"][\\\"name\\\"]}} went wrong*\\nWhy don't you go take a look {{$node[\\\"Error Trigger\\\"].json[\\\"execution\\\"][\\\"url\\\"]}}\"`\n\nLet's break that down.\nThe message starts with some static text and an emoji: `\ud83d\udc1b What?!`.\nThen, a newline character `\\n` to move to the next line.\nFollowing that is bold text: `*This execution... went wrong*`. Inside this bold text is where the magic happens. We're using an n8n expression: `{{$node[\\\"Error Trigger\\\"].json[\\\"workflow\\\"][\\\"name\\\"]}}`.\nThis expression tells n8n to:\n1. Go to the node named \"Error Trigger\" (`$node[\\\"Error Trigger\\\"]`).\n2. Access its output data (`.json`).\n3. From that data, navigate into the `workflow` object.\n4. And finally, extract the `name` property from the `workflow` object.\nThis is exactly how we pull the name of the workflow that failed from the Error Trigger's output. The Error Trigger node is designed to provide this kind of context about the originating error.\n\nAfter the bold text, there's another newline `\\n`.\nThen more static text: `Why don't you go take a look `.\nAnd here's the second dynamic part: `{{$node[\\\"Error Trigger\\\"].json[\\\"execution\\\"][\\\"url\\\"]}}`.\nThis expression is very similar to the previous one:\n1. Again, it targets the \"Error Trigger\" node.\n2. Accesses its output data (`.json`).\n3. This time, it navigates into the `execution` object.\n4. And extracts the `url` property from the `execution` object.\nThis dynamically injects the direct URL to the failed execution in n8n, making it incredibly convenient for someone receiving the alert to click and investigate immediately.\n\nSo, by embedding these expressions, the Slack message will be automatically populated with the relevant details about the error, making it much more actionable. The `attachments` and `otherOptions` parameters are empty, meaning we're just sending a plain text message for now, which perfectly fits the requirement.\n\nThis setup seems complete for the user's request: Error Trigger catches the error, passes its detailed output to the Slack node, and the Slack node uses that output to construct and send a rich, informative message including the workflow name and execution URL." } { "prompt": "Generate an Airtable node at position [380, 180] configured to accept Airtable application and table URLs, with their values currently unset.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"application\": {\"__rl\": true, \"mode\": \"url\", \"value\": \"\", \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"}, \"table\": {\"__rl\": true, \"mode\": \"url\", \"value\": \"\", \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"}}, \"name\": \"Airtable\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.airtable\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [380, 180]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The request is quite specific: we need an Airtable node, placed at a particular spot, and configured to accept Airtable application and table URLs, but with those values currently empty.\n\nMy first thought is always to identify the core operation. Here, it's interacting with Airtable, so an \"Airtable\" node is clearly the way to go. I'd search for that in the n8n node list.\n\nUpon finding it, the JSON confirms we're using the `n8n-nodes-base.airtable` type. This is the standard, built-in node for Airtable operations in n8n, so it's perfectly suitable for our purpose. The `typeVersion: 1` indicates we're using a stable, likely the initial or current main version of this node. If there were newer versions, I might consider if they offer new features or breaking changes, but for now, version 1 is what's specified and it works.\n\nNext, let's place it. The prompt explicitly states \"at position [380, 180]\". This is straightforward; I'll just set the `position` property for the node to `[380, 180]`. This ensures the workflow has a clean layout from the start, making it easy to visually organize as more nodes are added later.\n\nFor naming, the JSON shows `name: \"Airtable\"`. This is a perfectly descriptive and clear name for a standalone Airtable node. It's simple and tells anyone looking at the workflow exactly what this node is intended for.\n\nNow for the crucial part: configuration. The prompt requires it to accept Airtable application and table URLs, but currently unset.\n\nLooking at the node's `parameters`, I see an `application` property. This is where we'll handle the Airtable application (or base) URL.\n* It's configured with `mode: \"url\"`. This is important because it tells n8n's UI to present an input field specifically designed for a URL, potentially offering better user experience or validation helpers.\n* The `value: \"\"` is precisely what the prompt asked for \u2013 the value is currently unset. This means the node is ready, but a user needs to input their specific Airtable base URL before it can function.\n* There are also `__rl: true` and `__regex: \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. The `__rl` property is likely an internal flag for how n8n handles certain input types, perhaps related to dropdowns or restricted input. More importantly, the `__regex` is a brilliant addition. It ensures that whatever URL a user tries to enter for the Airtable application *must* conform to the expected format of an Airtable base URL (e.g., `https:\/\/airtable.com\/appXXXXXXXXX`). This is fantastic for input validation, preventing users from entering malformed or incorrect URLs.\n\nSimilarly, for the \"table URL,\" there's a `table` property within `parameters`.\n* Again, it has `mode: \"url\"` for the same reasons as the application URL, making the input field URL-specific.\n* And `value: \"\"` confirms that the table URL is also currently unset, awaiting user input.\n* It also includes `__rl: true` and a `__regex: \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. Notice this regex is more specific than the application one. It expects a URL that includes both the base ID and a table ID (e.g., `https:\/\/airtable.com\/appXXXXXXXXX\/tblYYYYYYYYY`). This strong regex validation ensures that the provided table URL is syntactically correct for an Airtable table.\n\nFinally, the `connections` object is empty, as expected. This node is being created as a standalone entity; there are no other nodes in this workflow yet that it needs to connect to, either as an input or an output. It's just a perfectly configured, blank slate Airtable node, ready for further workflow development or data input." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a manual trigger node, which then connects to an n8n node.

I'll need a `manualTrigger` node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nWhy this one? Well, it's perfect for testing or for workflows that you want to initiate yourself, without waiting for an external event. It acts as a simple start button. For its basic function, it doesn't really need any specific parameters, so I'll just leave its configuration empty for now. It simply emits an item when activated, signaling the workflow to begin.\n\nNext, the prompt says it \"then connects to an n8n node\". This tells me exactly what the next piece of the puzzle is. The `n8n` node is specifically designed for interacting with the n8n API itself, which is exactly what I need if I'm going to manage credentials *within* n8n.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.n8n`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nSo, I'll place this `n8n` node right after the `manualTrigger`. The connection between them will be a standard `main` connection \u2013 the output of the trigger will feed directly into the input of the n8n node, passing the execution flow along.\n\nNow, let's configure this `n8n` node. The prompt specifies its purpose: \"operate on the 'credential' resource\". This is a key parameter for the n8n node. I need to tell it what kind of n8n resource it should be working with.\n\n* **Parameter:** `resource` should be set to `\"credential\"`. This ensures the node knows we're dealing with credential management operations.\n\nThen, it gets more specific: \"specifically credential '123' of type '123'\". This means I need to narrow down which specific credential I'm targeting. The n8n node has parameters for this.\n\n* **Parameter:** `name` will be set to `\"123\"`. This targets a credential by its assigned name.\n* **Parameter:** `credentialTypeName` will also be set to `\"123\"`. This is crucial because you could have multiple credentials with the same display name but be of different underlying types (e.g., an \"API Key\" credential vs. an \"OAuth2\" credential). Specifying the type ensures I'm targeting the correct one.\n\nFinally, the n8n node itself needs to authenticate to the n8n API to perform these operations. The prompt tells me it needs to be \"using the 'n8n account' API credential\". This refers to the credential *this specific n8n node* will use to connect to its own n8n instance.\n\n* **Credential Type:** This will be an `n8nApi` type credential.\n* **Credential Selection:** I'll need to ensure that a pre-configured API credential, named something like \"n8n account\" (or whatever the user has named their n8n API key credential), is selected for this node. This credential contains the necessary information (like an API key) to allow the node to make authenticated calls to the n8n instance it's running on. I wouldn't put any actual secret values here; I'd just point it to the appropriate credential configuration.\n\nThat feels complete. The manual trigger starts it, and the n8n node, configured to interact with a specific credential using a designated n8n API credential, performs the requested action.

The user wants a pretty specific structure: start with a manual trigger, connect that to a Switch node with no rules defined, and then have the Switch node's third output connect to a Set node named \"Edit Fields.\" I've got the JSON definition right here to guide me, so I'll follow that precisely.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The request explicitly states \"starts with a manual trigger.\"\nSo, my first thought is, \"How do I get this workflow to kick off manually?\" In n8n, that immediately points me to the **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, I can see it's defined as `\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect because it allows me to execute the workflow by simply clicking \"Test workflow\" within the editor, which is exactly what its name, \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", suggests. Its `parameters` are empty, which is totally expected for a basic trigger \u2013 it just fires the workflow. I'll place it at `[440, 380]` as per the JSON, a nice central starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt says this manual trigger needs to be \"connected to a Switch node with no defined rules.\" So, the immediate next step is to add a **Switch** node. I'll connect the `Manual Trigger`'s main output to the `Switch` node's main input.\nLooking at the JSON for the Switch node, I see its `name` is \"Switch\", and its `type` is `\"n8n-nodes-base.switch\"`, `typeVersion: 3`. This node is ideal for routing data down different paths based on conditions. Even though the prompt specifies \"no defined rules,\" the Switch node is still the correct choice for a potential branching point. If requirements change later, rules could easily be added here.\nNow, about those \"no defined rules\" \u2013 checking the `parameters` of the Switch node in the JSON, I see `rules` are defined with `values`, but these `values` contain empty condition objects. Specifically, it has `{\"conditions\": {...}, \"conditions\": [{...}]}, {}, {}]`. This structure implies that there are indeed three outputs available (the default for a Switch node without explicit removal of outputs), but no actual logic to direct items down specific paths. Essentially, any data reaching this Switch node would likely fall through to the default or all outputs if no explicit rules are met, or it's just set up for future rule definition. For now, it simply acts as a passthrough with multiple potential exits. I'll place this node at `[660, 380]`, just to the right of the trigger.\n\nFinally, the prompt states, \"The Switch node's third output should then connect to a Set node named \"Edit Fields\".\"\nSo, from the `Switch` node, I need a connection. And it's not just any connection; it's specifically from its *third* output. This is a crucial detail.\nFollowing the connection in the JSON for the `Switch` node, under `connections.Switch.main`, I see `[null, null, [{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]`. This confirms my understanding: the first two outputs (`index: 0` and `index: 1`) are `null`, meaning nothing is connected to them, but the third output (`index: 2`) is indeed connected to the \"Edit Fields\" node. This is exactly what was requested.\nNow, for that \"Edit Fields\" node. The request specifies a **Set** node. Looking at the JSON, it's `\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` with `typeVersion: 3.3`. A Set node is perfect for this purpose because it allows you to add new fields to the incoming data, or to modify existing ones. It's often used to prepare data for a subsequent node or to refine data structures. Its name, \"Edit Fields,\" clearly indicates its intended purpose.\nRight now, its `parameters` for `options` are empty, which means no fields are currently being set or modified. This is fine; it's a placeholder ready for configuration once we know what data manipulation is needed. I'll position it at `[840, 480]`, slightly offset to the bottom right, which visually separates it as a specific path after the switch.\nSo, the data flow will be: manual trigger fires, passes data to the Switch node (which doesn't perform any specific routing logic because of empty rules), and then the data exits via its third output and flows directly into the \"Edit Fields\" Set node. This workflow looks solid and aligns perfectly with all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Manual wait set\" that begins with a Manual trigger node, connects to a Wait node configured to pause for 2 seconds, and then proceeds to a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Manual wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [900, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Manual\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1120, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Manual\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The request is pretty clear: a workflow named \"Manual wait set\" that starts with a manual trigger, pauses for a bit, and then finishes with a Set node.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick this workflow off. The prompt specifically asks for a \"Manual trigger node.\" So, my very first thought is to bring in that node. This `Manual Trigger` node, of `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`, is perfect because it allows someone to manually initiate the workflow, which is exactly what \"Manual trigger\" implies. I'd typically place this at the far left or top of my workflow canvas as it's the starting point. Looking at the JSON, it's just a standard manual trigger, no special parameters are needed for it, which makes sense \u2013 it simply signals the start.\n\nNext, the prompt says it \"connects to a Wait node configured to pause for 2 seconds.\" This is where the workflow needs to introduce a delay. For this, the `Wait` node is the obvious choice. It's designed exactly for this purpose: to pause the execution of the workflow for a specified duration. So, I'll add a `Wait` node, which is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.wait` and `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how do I configure this `Wait` node to pause for 2 seconds? I'd look at its parameters. The JSON shows `{\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}`. This is exactly what I need. I'd set the `amount` field to `2` and select \"seconds\" from the `unit` dropdown. This ensures the workflow will literally just sit there, doing nothing, for two full seconds before moving on. Without this, the workflow would execute instantly, which wouldn't meet the requirement.\n\nTo ensure the flow progresses correctly, I'll connect the `Manual` node's main output to the `Wait` node's main input. This establishes the sequence: trigger, then wait.\n\nFinally, the prompt states the workflow \"then proceeds to a Set node.\" So, after the waiting period, the workflow needs to move to its final processing step, which is specified as a `Set` node. The `Set` node, `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 1`, is incredibly versatile. It's used for adding, modifying, or removing data from the incoming items. While the prompt doesn't specify *what* data to set, merely requiring its presence means I'll just add it as the last step in the sequence. Looking at the JSON, its `parameters` show `{\"options\": {}}`, meaning no specific values or expressions are being used to modify the data. In this particular case, it'll essentially act as a passthrough, but it fulfills the requirement of being the final node in the chain.\n\nTo complete the flow, I'll connect the `Wait` node's main output to the `Set` node's main input. This creates a clear, linear path: start manually, wait for 2 seconds, then process with the Set node.

So, I'll start by setting up the basic workflow properties. The `name` will be \"Notify Telegram\", and critically, I'll ensure the `active` flag is set to `false`. This means it won't run automatically until someone explicitly activates it.\n\nNow, for the core logic. The prompt clearly states it should be \"triggered manually\". This immediately tells me I need a manual trigger. I'll look for the `manualTrigger` node.\n\nSo, my first node will be of `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. This is perfect for scenarios where you want to initiate a workflow by simply clicking a button within the n8n UI, like for testing or one-off tasks. Looking at the JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is a standard, straightforward trigger. It doesn't really have any specific parameters to configure, as its job is just to start the workflow when manually invoked. I'll give it a clear name, something like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" which aligns with the JSON's `name` property. I'll place it at the starting point of the canvas, say, at position `[0, 0]`.\n\nNext, the workflow needs to \"send the text '\u0422\u0435\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0435 \u0441\u043e\u043e\u0431\u0449\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0435 \u043e\u0442 n8n' to Telegram chat ID 489359810\". This screams \"Telegram node\" at me. So, after my manual trigger, the logical next step is a Telegram node.\n\nI'll add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.telegram`. This node is specifically designed for interacting with the Telegram Bot API, allowing me to send messages, files, and more. Its `typeVersion` is `1.2` in this case, which is a recent version that should handle standard messaging tasks just fine.\n\nNow, how does it connect? The `manualTrigger` node, once activated, should pass its execution directly to the `Telegram` node. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node to the `main` input of the \"Telegram\" node. This ensures a linear flow: trigger, then send message. I'll place this node to the right of the trigger, perhaps at `[220, 0]` to keep things neatly aligned.\n\nConfiguring the Telegram node is crucial. I need to look at its `parameters`.\nFirst, the `chatId`. The prompt specifies `489359810`. So, I'll set the `chatId` parameter to this exact value. This tells the node *where* to send the message.\nSecond, the `text` of the message. The prompt states \"\u0422\u0435\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0435 \u0441\u043e\u043e\u0431\u0449\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0435 \u043e\u0442 n8n\". I'll input this exact string into the `text` parameter. It's important to make sure the Unicode characters are correctly handled; the JSON shows them as `\\u0422\\u0435\\u0441\\u0442\\u043e\\u0432\\u043e\\u0435 \\u0441\\u043e\\u043e\\u0431\\u0449\\u0435\\u043d\\u0438\\u0435 \\u043e\\u0442 n8n ` which is the correct encoding for the Cyrillic text.\nThere are also `additionalFields`, but for this simple message, they are empty, meaning no special formatting like Markdown or HTML, or other options are needed. It's a plain text message.\n\nFinally, for the Telegram node to work, it needs to authenticate with the Telegram API. This means it requires a credential. The JSON indicates a `credentials` property pointing to `telegramApi`. This means a pre-configured Telegram API credential, which would contain a bot token, would be selected here. I would ensure that the correct credential, named \"Telegram account\" as per the JSON, is linked, so the workflow has permission to send messages via a specific Telegram bot. This credential is vital for the node to function correctly, allowing it to authenticate and send the message on behalf of the bot." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile Automating Data Workflows\" that is triggered by a webhook at `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/AutomatingDataWorkflows`.

The goal here is to create a workflow that acts as an endpoint, fetches a Google Doc, and then serves that doc's content back as plain text.\n\nSo, where do we start? The prompt clearly states it's \"triggered by a webhook.\" This immediately tells me the very first node in our workflow has to be a Webhook node. That's the entry point for anything external interacting with this workflow.\n\nI'd drag out a **Webhook** node. For its type, it'll be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the type version is `2`. This is typically a stable and feature-rich version for webhooks.\n\nNow, how do we configure this webhook? The prompt specifies a precise path: `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/AutomatingDataWorkflows`. So, in the Webhook node's parameters, I'd set the `Path` field to exactly that string. This makes sure our workflow responds only to requests hitting that specific URL endpoint. Another crucial setting for this webhook is the `Response Mode`. Since the workflow needs to *do something* (fetch a Google Doc) *before* responding to the initial request, I can't have the webhook respond immediately. I'd set `Response Mode` to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node to hold open the connection and wait for a later \"Respond to Webhook\" node to send back the final answer. This is essential for our requirement to send the Google Doc content.\n\nAlright, the webhook is set up to trigger and wait. What's next? The core requirement after triggering is to \"retrieve the content from the Google Doc.\" This points directly to needing a node that can interact with Google Docs.\n\nSo, I'd connect a **Google Docs** node directly after the Webhook node. The connection would be a standard `main` connection, flowing from the Webhook's output to the Google Docs node's input. For this node, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and the type version is `2`.\n\nNow, for configuring the Google Docs node. We need to *get* content from a document, so the `Operation` field must be set to `Get`. Then, there's the `Document URL` field. The prompt provides the exact URL for the Google Doc: `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1p8-fa8JVsWlDHRNBmxuwaRItNc2UzFuD9-TUOrc_tc0\/view`. I would configure this field with the provided document URL. This tells the node exactly which document to fetch. Of course, to interact with Google Docs, this node also requires proper authentication. I'd ensure that valid Google Docs credentials, like an OAuth2 account, are configured and associated with this node. The JSON indicates that a `googleDocsOAuth2Api` credential is used, which is the correct approach for securely accessing Google services.\n\nSo, we've got the trigger, and we're fetching the document. The final piece is to \"respond to the initial webhook with that document's content as plain text.\" This is where that `responseNode` setting on the Webhook comes into play. We need a node specifically designed to send a response back to the waiting webhook.\n\nI'd connect a **Respond to Webhook** node after the Google Docs node, again using a `main` connection from the Google Docs output to its input. This node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and the type version is `1.1`.\n\nLet's configure this response node. The prompt specifies \"plain text.\" So, I'd set the `Respond With` option to `Text`. Now, for the actual content of the response. The Google Docs node, when it successfully retrieves a document, will output its content, often in a field like `content`. To pass that content back, I'd use an expression in the `Response Body` field. Based on typical Google Docs node output, `={{ $json.content }}` is the correct way to reference the plain text content extracted by the Google Docs node from the previous step. This expression tells the node to dynamically pull the `content` property from the data it received from the Google Docs node and send it as the plain text response. This completes the loop, sending the desired data back to the original requestor." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a manual trigger, which then connects to an n8n node configured to manage a credential named '123' of type '123', using the 'n8n account' API credential.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"credential\", \"name\": \"123\", \"credentialTypeName\": \"123\"}, \"name\": \"n8n\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8n\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [540, 240]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [300, 240]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"n8n\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down how I'd approach building this n8n workflow, thinking through each piece as I go. The goal, as stated, is to create a workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then uses an n8n node to manage a specific credential.\n\nFirst off, the prompt clearly states \"starting with a manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me what my initial node needs to be. I'd reach for the `manualTrigger` node because it's the most straightforward way to start a workflow ad-hoc, either for testing or for a single, manual execution. So, I'd drag and drop a `manualTrigger` node onto the canvas. Looking at the JSON, it confirms this choice, showing it as `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This version is standard and perfectly suitable for what we need here; typically, for base nodes like this, `typeVersion` updates usually bring minor improvements or bug fixes rather than drastic behavioral changes for simple triggering. Its primary purpose is just to kick off the workflow when someone clicks \"Test workflow\" or manually executes it. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters itself, beyond its display name, which in this case is \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\".\n\nNext, the prompt says this trigger \"then connects to an n8n node configured to manage a credential.\" This tells me two critical things: what the next node is and what its purpose is. The \"n8n node\" part is key. n8n has a dedicated `n8n` node that allows you to interact with the n8n instance's API itself. This is precisely what's needed for managing internal resources like credentials. So, I'd add an `n8n` node (`n8n-nodes-base.n8n`, `typeVersion: 1`) to the canvas.\n\nNow, how does it connect? The prompt says \"which then connects,\" implying a direct flow. So, I'd draw a connection from the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" `manualTrigger` node's output to the input of the `n8n` node. This means that when the manual trigger is activated, it will simply pass an empty item, or a basic item, to the `n8n` node, signaling it to execute. The `manualTrigger` doesn't usually send specific data payloads that the `n8n` node consumes in this context; it just initiates the flow.\n\nNow, let's configure this `n8n` node. The prompt is quite specific: \"configured to manage a credential named '123' of type '123', using the 'n8n account' API credential.\"\n* **Resource:** The prompt states \"manage a credential,\" so within the `n8n` node's parameters, I'd set the `resource` option to `credential`. This tells the node we want to work with n8n credentials.\n* **Name:** It specifies \"credential named '123'\". So, I'd input '123' into the `name` field for the credential. This will target the specific credential by its name.\n* **Credential Type Name:** The prompt also mentions \"of type '123'\". So, I'd fill '123' into the `credentialTypeName` field. This ensures we're targeting a credential of a particular internal type.\n* **Credentials:** Finally, and crucially, the `n8n` node needs to authenticate with the n8n API. The prompt says \"using the 'n8n account' API credential.\" This implies that an API credential, pre-configured within the n8n instance, needs to be selected here. This credential typically contains an API key that grants the workflow permission to perform actions on the n8n instance's API. I would select the appropriate n8n API credential from the dropdown list, which in the background is linked to an ID, in this case, representing the \"n8n account\" credential. This credential ensures the workflow has the necessary permissions to manage other credentials.\n\nAnd that's it. The flow is set: trigger manually, then make an API call to n8n itself to interact with a specific credential." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that queries a PostgreSQL database for product names and EANs, converts the results into a spreadsheet, and then saves it as \"spreadsheet.xls\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"query\": \"SELECT name, ean FROM product\", \"operation\": \"executeQuery\"}, \"name\": \"Run Query\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.postgres\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 450]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"toFile\"}, \"name\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 450]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"spreadsheet.xls\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [750, 450]}], \"connections\": {\"Run Query\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Spreadsheet File\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start designing this n8n workflow from scratch, thinking through each piece as we go. The goal is clear: get product names and EANs from a PostgreSQL database, turn that data into a spreadsheet, and then save it as \"spreadsheet.xls\".\n\nMy first thought process immediately goes to where the data is coming from. The prompt specifies a PostgreSQL database. So, naturally, the very first node I'll need is something that can connect to and query a PostgreSQL database.\n\nLooking at the available nodes, the **Postgres** node seems like the perfect fit.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.postgres`.\n* And for this particular version of the node, `typeVersion: 1` is what we'll use.\n\nSo, I'll drag and drop that node onto my canvas. I'll name it \"Run Query\" because that's precisely its job.\nNow, how do I configure this \"Run Query\" node? I need to tell it what to do.\n* Under its parameters, the `operation` clearly needs to be `executeQuery`. This allows me to write a custom SQL query to fetch exactly what I need.\n* The prompt states \"queries a PostgreSQL database for product names and EANs\". So, my SQL `query` will be `SELECT name, ean FROM product`. This assumes there's a table named 'product' with 'name' and 'ean' columns, which is a common scenario.\n* For the `credentials`, this is where I'd link it to an existing PostgreSQL database connection setup in n8n. I'd select the appropriate credential entry here; for example, it's generically named \"postgres\" in the provided JSON, which would correspond to a previously configured set of database connection details (host, port, user, password, database name, etc.). I wouldn't put any actual sensitive information in the workflow itself, but rather rely on a credential management system.\n\nOnce this \"Run Query\" node executes, it will output a JSON array, where each item in the array represents a row from the database, and the properties of each item will be the columns (`name` and `ean`). This is good.\n\nNext, what do I do with this data? The prompt says \"converts the results into a spreadsheet\". This means I need a node that can take structured data (like the JSON output from the database query) and transform it into a binary spreadsheet file format.\n\nScanning through n8n's nodes, the **Spreadsheet File** node jumps out.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile`.\n* And its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n\nThis seems ideal. I'll connect the main output of my \"Run Query\" node to the main input of this new \"Spreadsheet File\" node. The connection would look like: `Run Query`'s `main` output to `Spreadsheet File`'s `main` input. This will pass the query results directly to the spreadsheet node.\nFor its configuration:\n* The `operation` parameter should be set to `toFile`. This specific operation is designed to take input data and convert it into a binary spreadsheet file. It's exactly what's needed for the transformation part. I don't need to specify the file type yet, as the next node will handle the final output. The Spreadsheet File node is smart enough to create a standard Excel-compatible format by default when used this way.\n\nSo now I have the data, and I've converted it into a binary spreadsheet format. The final step is to \"save it as 'spreadsheet.xls'\". This requires writing the generated binary data to a file on the n8n host system (or a specified location, depending on the n8n setup).\n\nFor this, I'll need a node that can take binary data and write it to a file. The **Write Binary File** node is exactly what I'm looking for.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile`.\n* And its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n\nI'll connect the main output of the \"Spreadsheet File\" node to the main input of this \"Write Binary File\" node. This ensures that the generated spreadsheet data is what gets saved. The connection would be: `Spreadsheet File`'s `main` output to `Write Binary File`'s `main` input.\nAnd for its configuration:\n* The most crucial parameter here is `fileName`. The prompt specifically says \"spreadsheet.xls\", so I'll put `spreadsheet.xls` right there. This tells the node exactly what to name the file it's saving.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow!

Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and looking at the provided structure, `typeVersion: 2` is what we'll use. This node is essential because it serves as the entry point for external systems to trigger our workflow via an HTTP request. I'd place it right at the beginning, typically at `[0, 0]` in the visual editor, as it's the start. For its configuration, I'd define a unique `path` for the webhook URL \u2013 something that ensures it's easily callable. Crucially, the prompt implies we need to return the document content, so I'd set its `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node to wait for a subsequent \"Respond to Webhook\" node to actually send the HTTP response, giving us control over what's sent back. If I didn't set this, the webhook might respond immediately with a generic success, which isn't what we want here.\n\nNext, after the webhook is triggered, the core task is to \"read content from the Google Doc.\" For that, we need a node that can interact with Google Docs. n8n has a dedicated **Google Docs** node, which is perfect for this. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and we'll stick with `typeVersion: 2`. I'd connect the \"main\" output of the \"Webhook\" node to the \"main\" input of this \"Google Docs\" node. This ensures that once the webhook fires, the workflow proceeds to fetch the document. In terms of configuration for this Google Docs node, the `operation` needs to be set to \"get\" since we're specifically trying to retrieve document content, not create or update anything. The prompt specifies a Google Doc URL, so I would input that exact document URL into the `documentURL` parameter. Of course, to make this work, an appropriate Google Docs credential would need to be linked so n8n has the necessary permissions to access the specified document.\n\nFinally, after successfully retrieving the document content from the Google Docs node, we need to send that content back as the response to the initial webhook request. For this, we use the **Respond to Webhook** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node is specifically designed to handle the HTTP response for a Webhook node that has its `responseMode` set to `responseNode`. I'd connect the \"main\" output of the \"Google Docs\" node to the \"main\" input of the \"Respond to Webhook\" node. This ensures that the document content retrieved by the Google Docs node is passed along. The prompt asks for \"the document's plain text,\" so for the \"Respond to Webhook\" node, I'd set `respondWith` to \"text.\" Then, for the `responseBody`, I'd use an expression. The Google Docs node typically outputs the document's content in a field like `content` in its JSON output. So, I would use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` to dynamically grab that plain text content and send it as the HTTP response.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the core logic. The workflow's `name` would be set to \"GetOnboardingFileContentgeneration\" as specified, and `active` would be set to `true`. Finally, for organization and searchability, the requested `tags` \u2013 \"Onboarding\", \"Files\", \"Day3\", and \"PromptEngineer\" \u2013 would be added to the workflow's metadata." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that manually triggers a Shopify node to retrieve all records, using 'shopify_creds'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [230, 310]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\"}, \"name\": \"Shopify\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.shopify\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [430, 310]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Shopify\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow from scratch based on the user's request and the provided JSON.

It's much easier than using a generic HTTP Request node and building the API calls myself.\n* **Position**: This node needs to execute *after* the manual trigger, so I'd place it to the right of the `manualTrigger` node. The position `[430, 310]` provided in the JSON is a logical next step, horizontally aligned with the trigger.\n\nNow, let's configure this Shopify node. The prompt is quite specific: \"retrieve all records.\"\n* **Operation**: Within the Shopify node's parameters, I'd look for an operation that matches \"retrieve all records.\" The JSON specifies `operation: \"getAll\"`, which is exactly what I'd select. This operation is designed to fetch multiple items or records from a Shopify resource.\n* **Options**: The JSON shows `options: {}`. When using `getAll`, the Shopify node often allows specifying *which type* of records (e.g., products, orders, customers). If \"all records\" means *all types*, that would typically require multiple Shopify nodes or more advanced looping. However, given the single `getAll` operation without further specifics in the prompt, it implies fetching all records of the *default* type for the `getAll` operation, which is commonly products or orders depending on the node's internal default. For this simple case, leaving `options` empty is perfectly valid and usually results in retrieving a common, large dataset like all products. If the user later clarifies they need *all* orders, for example, I would then specify `resource: \"orders\"` in the options.\n* **Credentials**: This is a critical part. The prompt states \"using 'shopify_creds'.\" This directly maps to the `credentials` property of the node. I need to make sure the node knows which Shopify account to connect to. So, under the credentials section, I would select or specify the `shopifyApi` credential that is named \"shopify_creds.\" This credential would have been pre-configured in n8n with the necessary Shopify API key, secret, and store URL. This ensures the workflow can securely authenticate with the user's Shopify store without embedding sensitive information directly in the workflow itself.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The `manualTrigger` needs to flow into the `Shopify` node.\n* **Connection**: The `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (the manual trigger) node needs to connect to the `main` input of the \"Shopify\" node. This creates a sequential flow: when the trigger fires, it activates the Shopify node.\n* **Data Flow**: In this specific case, the `manualTrigger` simply signals the start. It might pass a single, empty item or a default item (e.g., `[{\"json\":{}}]`). The `Shopify` node, upon receiving this, doesn't necessarily *use* the input data but rather performs its configured `getAll` operation. It then outputs the data it retrieves from Shopify as a collection of items, ready for any subsequent nodes in the workflow (though there are none in this specific workflow's JSON).\n\nAnd that's it. This setup perfectly matches the user's request: a manual trigger initiating a Shopify node to retrieve all records using specific credentials. Simple and effective." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFileTreeofThought' that triggers via a webhook at path `e62faf53-2e85-419d-b3ff-4417e2bacac3`.

The goal is pretty clear: we need to trigger something, grab a Google Doc's content, and then send that content back.\n\nFirst off, when I hear \"triggers via a webhook,\" my mind immediately goes to the `Webhook` node. That's the fundamental starting point for anything that needs to respond to an external HTTP request. So, I'd pull in a `Webhook` node. Looking at the JSON, it's `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is standard, and `typeVersion 2` is what I'd expect for modern workflows.\n\nNow, how should this webhook behave? The prompt says it needs to \"respond to the webhook with the document's content.\" This tells me the webhook shouldn't just send an immediate success response; it needs to wait for subsequent actions to complete and then send the result. So, in the `Webhook` node's parameters, I'd set `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This means another node later in the workflow will handle sending the actual response. The specific `path` given, like `e62faf53-2e85-419d-b3ff-4417e2bacac3`, would be configured here, making it accessible at that unique URL.\n\nOkay, so we've got the trigger. What's next? We need to \"retrieve content from the Google Doc.\" That's a very specific action involving a specific service. Naturally, I'd look for a `Google Docs` node. The JSON confirms this choice, using `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion: 2`. This node is perfectly suited for interacting with Google Docs.\n\nThis `Google Docs` node needs to follow the `Webhook` node in the flow, so I'd connect the `Webhook`'s main output to the `Google Docs` node's input. The data from the webhook (which might just be the trigger event itself) would flow into the Google Docs node, signaling it to execute.\n\nFor the `Google Docs` node's configuration, the primary task is to \"retrieve content,\" which translates directly to the `operation` parameter being set to `get`. We'd then need to specify *which* document to get. The prompt gives us a `documentURL`, so that value would be precisely configured in the `documentURL` parameter. Crucially, to access a private Google Doc, we need authentication. The prompt mentions using a \"Google Docs account\" credential. This means I'd select an existing credential, or create one if necessary, and assign it to the `googleDocsOAuth2Api` credential field for this node. Without it, the node wouldn't have permission to read the document.\n\nFinally, we've triggered, and we've retrieved the document content. The last step is to \"respond to the webhook with the document's content.\" This is where the `Respond to Webhook` node comes in. Since we set the `Webhook` node's `responseMode` to `responseNode`, this dedicated response node is exactly what we need. The JSON shows `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion: 1.1`, which is the correct node for this purpose.\n\nThe `Respond to Webhook` node needs to get the content from the `Google Docs` node. So, I'd connect the `Google Docs` node's main output to the `Respond to Webhook` node's input. The `Google Docs` node, after successfully retrieving content, typically outputs an object with a `content` field.\n\nIn the `Respond to Webhook` node's parameters, I'd set `respondWith` to `text` because we're just sending back the document's content. Then, for the `responseBody`, I'd use an expression to pull the content from the previous node's output. The JSON correctly shows `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression dynamically takes the value of the `content` property from the data that the `Google Docs` node passed along, and sends it as the body of the webhook response.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps up the logical flow for this specific request. We've got the trigger, the data retrieval, and the response, all connected and configured as required. The name of the workflow, \"GetOnboardingFileTreeofThought,\" and the tags like \"Onboarding,\" \"Files,\" \"PromptEngineer,\" and \"Day4\" would be set in the workflow's overall settings, but they don't affect the node-level design." } { "prompt": "Here are a couple of options:\n\n\"Create a workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then retrieves all posts from Hacker News.\"\n\n\"Design a workflow to manually trigger fetching all Hacker News posts.\"", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"all\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Hacker News\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.hackerNews\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Hacker News\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so the task at hand is to build a workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then goes off to fetch all the posts from Hacker News. This sounds like a pretty straightforward two-step process. Let's break it down based on the provided JSON.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way for the user to kick off this workflow themselves. Looking at the prompt, it explicitly asks for a \"manual trigger.\" So, the very first node I'd reach for would be a trigger that allows for exactly that.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThis `manualTrigger` node is ideal because its sole purpose is to start a workflow when a user clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n interface. It's the most direct way to fulfill the \"manual trigger\" requirement. For its parameters, there's actually nothing specific to configure for a basic manual trigger \u2013 it just needs to be there to act as the starting point. So, the `parameters` object will be empty, `{}`. This ensures it's a simple start signal.\n\nOnce the workflow is manually triggered, the next logical step, as per the prompt, is to \"retrieve all posts from Hacker News\" or \"fetch all Hacker News posts.\" This immediately tells me I need an integration with Hacker News. n8n has a dedicated node for that, which simplifies things immensely.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.hackerNews`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThis `hackerNews` node is perfect because it's built specifically to interact with Hacker News. Now, how do I configure it to get *all* posts? Looking at its parameters, I'd expect an option to specify what \"resource\" I want to retrieve. And indeed, the JSON shows `resource: \"all\"`. This is exactly what I need. It tells the node to fetch all available stories or items from Hacker News, rather than just top stories, new stories, or specific items. The `additionalFields` are empty, `{}` which means I'm not looking for anything more specific like a particular search query or a limited number of items; I just want everything it can give me under the \"all\" category. This keeps the retrieval broad, matching the prompt's \"all posts\" requirement.\n\nNow, for the connections. How does the `manualTrigger` initiate the `hackerNews` node? The `connections` object in the JSON shows the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (which is our `manualTrigger` node) has a `main` output that connects to the `Hacker News` node's `main` input. This is the standard flow of execution in n8n. When the `manualTrigger` is activated, it simply passes an empty item or a signal down its main output, which tells the connected `Hacker News` node to execute its operation. There's no complex data transfer needed between these two; it's purely a sequence of operations: trigger then fetch. It's a clean, direct connection to get the job done.\n\nAnd that's it. A manual trigger kicks things off, and then the Hacker News node does the heavy lifting of pulling all the posts. Simple and effective.Okay, so, planning this workflow from scratch, the very first thing I need to address is how it gets started. The user prompt clearly states \"starts with a manual trigger.\" That's my immediate cue for the initial node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThis `manualTrigger` node is absolutely perfect for this. It literally puts a button in the n8n UI that a user can click to initiate the workflow. It's the simplest and most direct way to get a user-initiated start. For its configuration, the `parameters` are just an empty object `{}`. That makes sense because a basic manual trigger doesn't need any specific setup beyond just existing to be clickable. It just sends an activation signal downstream.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered manually, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"retrieve all posts from Hacker News\" or \"fetching all Hacker News posts.\" This tells me I need a node that can interact with the Hacker News platform. Luckily, n8n has a dedicated one.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.hackerNews`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThis `hackerNews` node is precisely what's needed here. It's built to fetch data directly from Hacker News. Now, how do I get \"all posts\"? Looking at the `parameters` for this node, I see `{\"resource\": \"all\"}`. This is the key configuration. It tells the Hacker News node to query for the 'all' resource, meaning it should attempt to retrieve the broadest set of posts available from the platform, rather than just the top stories or new stories. The `additionalFields` are also an empty object `{}`, which means I'm not applying any further filters, sort orders, or other specific criteria \u2013 just a straightforward request for everything under the \"all\" category. This perfectly matches the requirement to retrieve *all* posts.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The `manualTrigger` needs to flow into the `hackerNews` node. The connections in the JSON show that the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node (our `manualTrigger`) goes into the `main` input of the \"Hacker News\" node. This is standard practice in n8n. When the `manualTrigger` is activated, it simply sends a signal, an item, to the `hackerNews` node, effectively telling it, \"Okay, it's your turn, go fetch the data!\" There's no complex data transformation needed at this stage; it's a direct execution flow. It's a simple, two-node setup that directly translates the user's request into an executable workflow." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, then uses a Set node to define an `xml` property with a given XML string, keeping only that property.

The goal is pretty clear: manual trigger, define an XML string, and then parse it with specific XML node settings.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. Looking at the prompt, it explicitly says \"starts with a manual trigger.\" That makes the choice obvious. I'll drag over a **Manual Trigger** node. This is a `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and it's `typeVersion: 1`. It's great because it allows me to execute the workflow whenever I need to, simply by clicking the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n UI. For this simple start, there are no special parameters needed, so I'll leave its configuration as default. I'll place it at a good starting position, say around `[250, 300]` on the canvas.\n\nNext, the prompt states we need to \"use a Set node to define an `xml` property with a given XML string, keeping only that property.\" This is a perfect job for a **Set** node. I'll add one and connect it directly from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's output. This `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` node, `typeVersion: 1`, will receive the empty item from the trigger.\n\nNow, how to configure it? I need to define a new property. I'll go into its parameters and add a new value. It's a string, so I'll pick \"String\" as the type. The prompt specifies the property name as `xml`, so I'll set the \"Name\" field to `xml`. Then, I'll paste the provided XML string into the \"Value\" field. This is the core data we'll be working with. The XML string itself is quite specific: `<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?> <ORDERS05> <IDOC BEGIN=\"1\"> <EDI_DC40 SEGMENT=\"1\"> <TABNAM>EDI_DC40<\/TABNAM> <\/EDI_DC40> <\/IDOC> <\/ORDERS05>`.\n\nThere's another crucial part of the prompt for this node: \"keeping only that property.\" This means I need to enable the \"Keep Only Set\" option in the Set node's parameters. This is important because it ensures that only the `xml` property we just defined is passed down to the next node, cleaning up the data stream and preventing any unintended properties from cluttering the subsequent processing. I'll place this node around `[510, 300]`, making a nice flow from the trigger.\n\nFinally, the prompt instructs: \"add an XML node to convert this data, configured to use `$` for attributes, disable attribute merging, and explicitly include the root.\" This is clearly a job for the **XML** node. I'll add this node to the canvas, and of course, connect its input from the output of the \"Set\" node. This `type: n8n-nodes-base.xml` node, `typeVersion: 1`, will take the `xml` property we just created and parse it.\n\nNow for the specific configurations on this XML node. The prompt gives very explicit instructions:\n1. **\"configured to use `$` for attributes\"**: In the XML node's \"Options\" section, there's a parameter for \"Attribute Key.\" I'll set that to `$`. This means when the XML is parsed into a JSON object, attribute names (like `BEGIN` or `SEGMENT`) will be prefixed with a dollar sign.\n2. **\"disable attribute merging\"**: Still in the \"Options\" section, I'll find the \"Merge Attributes\" parameter and make sure it's set to `false`. This prevents attributes from being merged directly into the parent element's properties, keeping them distinct, typically under their own prefixed key as defined by \"Attribute Key.\"\n3. **\"explicitly include the root\"**: There's an \"Explicit Root\" option. I'll set this to `true`. This ensures that the top-level element of the XML (in this case, `ORDERS05`) is also included as a property in the resulting JSON object, rather than having its children be the top-level properties.\n\nOne more thing for the XML node: I need to tell it *which* property contains the XML string to process. Since we named our property `xml` in the previous Set node, I'll set the \"Data Property Name\" field in the XML node's parameters to `xml`. This ensures it looks for the correct incoming data. I'll position this node around `[740, 300]` to complete the layout.\n\nThat seems to cover all the requirements from the prompt.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to send an SMS via Vonage, starting with a simple trigger, and ensure the workflow itself is inactive to begin with.\n\nFirst things first, I always set up the basic workflow properties. The request specifies the name as **'Vonage:SMS:send'**. So, I'll make sure the workflow's `name` property is set to that. And importantly, it needs to be an **inactive** workflow initially, so I'll set `active` to `false`. That's critical for not having it run immediately upon import or creation.\n\nNow, onto the actual structure of the workflow, starting with the nodes. The prompt mentions it \"starts with a **Start** node.\" That's easy; every n8n workflow needs an entry point.\n\nSo, my first node will be the **Start** node.\n* Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.start`.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1`. This `typeVersion` indicates a specific iteration of the node's capabilities and parameters. For a basic Start node, `typeVersion 1` is usually what you'd expect and it serves its purpose perfectly as a generic workflow trigger. I wouldn't expect a different version to drastically change its fundamental 'start' behavior for this simple case.\n* I'll give it a `name` like \"Start\" (or \"Start Workflow\" if I wanted to be more descriptive, but \"Start\" is standard).\n* For `parameters`, the Start node typically doesn't need any special configuration unless you're setting up a manual trigger or a webhook start, neither of which is implied here. So, an empty `parameters` object is fine.\n* I'll place it somewhere sensible on the canvas, say `position: [250, 300]`.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"then sends an **SMS via Vonage**\". This immediately tells me I need a **Vonage** node. This is the core action of the workflow.\n\n* The `type` for this node will be `n8n-nodes-base.vonage`.\n* Its `typeVersion` is also `1`. Again, for standard SMS sending, `typeVersion 1` of the Vonage node should have all the necessary functionalities. If there were more advanced features like voice calls or more complex messaging options, a higher version might be introduced in the future, but for SMS, this is what we need.\n* I'll name this node \"Vonage\" for simplicity, although \"Send SMS\" or \"Vonage SMS\" could also work.\n* Now, I need to connect the **Start** node to this **Vonage** node. This is crucial for the flow of execution. The `Start` node will trigger the `Vonage` node. So, in the `connections` object, I'll define a `main` connection from \"Start\" to \"Vonage\".\n\nWith the nodes in place and connected, it's time to configure the **Vonage** node's `parameters` according to the prompt's specifications.\n\n* The prompt states: \"The Vonage node should send the SMS from and to the number **'21624827732'**\".\n * So, the `from` parameter will be set to `'21624827732'`.\n * And the `to` parameter will also be set to `'21624827732'`. This implies sending a message to oneself, or perhaps testing.\n* Next, \"with the message content set to **'Message' followed by the current timestamp**\". This requires a dynamic value, which means using an expression.\n * The way to do this in n8n is to prefix the value with an equals sign `=`. Then, I'll concatenate the static string \"Message\" with a timestamp. A common way to get the current timestamp is `Date.now()`. So, the expression for `message` will be `\"=Message{{Date.now()}}\"`. The double curly braces `{{ }}` are for embedding JavaScript expressions within a string in n8n. This will result in something like \"Message1678886400000\".\n* The `additionalFields` parameter will remain an empty object, as no extra fields are specified.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"using **'Vonage API creds'**\". This tells me which credential resource needs to be linked to this node.\n* Under the `credentials` property for the Vonage node, I'll specify that it uses a `vonageApi` credential. The specific credential resource will have an `id` and `name` referencing an existing credential in the n8n instance. In this case, it will be the one named \"Vonage API creds\", which will have its own system-generated ID. I don't need to know the actual API key or secret; I just need to link to the pre-configured credential.\n\nI'll place the Vonage node at `position: [450, 300]`, just to the right of the Start node to keep the workflow visually clean.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps up the design. We have the Start node triggering the Vonage node, with all the necessary parameters configured for sending the SMS, and the appropriate credential linked.

This `path` is crucial because it defines the unique URL segment for the form. When the form is published, this path will be part of the full URL that users will access to submit data.\n* Next, `formTitle: \"test\"`. This is straightforward; it sets the visible title of the form that users will see in their web browser.\n* Then, `formFields`: This is where we define the input fields of our form. The JSON shows `{\"values\": [{\"fieldLabel\": \"test\"}]}`. This means our form will contain a single input field, and its label will be \"test\". So, when someone views the form, they'll see a field clearly marked \"test\" where they can enter information.\n* The `options` object is empty, indicating no advanced form-specific options like custom CSS or redirect URLs are configured at this point.\n* The `webhookId` is also present, and it matches the `path` which makes sense for how this node operates under the hood.\n* The `id` and `position` are internal identifiers and layout coordinates, which n8n handles automatically during creation and arrangement.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the prompt states it \"then connects to a 'Switch' node.\" A Switch node is fundamentally about routing data or workflow execution paths based on conditions. It's like a decision point.\n\nSo, the next node I'll add is a **Switch** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.switch`, also `typeVersion: 2`. Again, sticking with the current version is good.\n* I'll name it \"Switch\" as per the JSON.\n* Looking at its `parameters`, it's an empty object `{}`. This is interesting. It means that while the Switch node is present and connected, no specific conditions (like \"if a value equals X, go this way, else go that way\") are currently configured within *this* node's properties. It's essentially a placeholder for future logic, or perhaps it's intended to simply pass data through without immediate branching, though that's less common for a Switch node. Its primary purpose would be to define criteria for routing, but here, that configuration is missing.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The `connections` object in the JSON shows `{\"n8n Form Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`.\n* This indicates that the \"n8n Form Trigger\" node's `main` output connects to the \"Switch\" node's `main` input. This means any data that the form trigger receives\u2014like the input from the \"test\" field\u2014will be directly passed as input to the Switch node.\n\nOne other detail from the JSON is `pinData`. It has `{\"n8n Form Trigger\": [{\"json\": {\"name\": \"First item\", \"code\": 1}}, {\"json\": {\"name\": \"Second item\", \"code\": 2}}]}`. This isn't part of the active workflow execution logic but rather \"pinned data.\" This data is usually manually added to a node's output to facilitate testing the downstream nodes without having to actually run the trigger. It's incredibly useful for development and debugging, allowing you to simulate input without, for example, submitting the form every time.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the entire workflow as described in the JSON and the user prompt. It's a simple, two-node workflow: a form to collect data, and a Switch node ready to process or route that data, even if its specific logic isn't defined yet. The workflow is inactive, as requested, ready to be activated when needed." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow to send the Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) daily at 8 PM to a Telegram channel, including the image and its title as the caption for chat ID -485365454.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Send the Astronomy Picture of the day daily to a Telegram channel\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 20}]}}, \"name\": \"Cron\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cron\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"download\": false, \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"NASA\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.nasa\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"file\": \"={{$node[\\\"NASA\\\"].json[\\\"url\\\"]}}\", \"chatId\": \"-485365454\", \"operation\": \"sendPhoto\", \"additionalFields\": {\"caption\": \"={{$node[\\\"NASA\\\"].json[\\\"title\\\"]}}\"}}, \"name\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegram\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [850, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Cron\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"NASA\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"NASA\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so the goal here is to set up an n8n workflow that automatically sends the Astronomy Picture of the Day, including its image and title, to a specific Telegram channel every day at 8 PM. This is a pretty common automation task, blending scheduling with API interaction and messaging.\n\nFirst, I need to think about how to initiate this workflow. The prompt says \"daily at 8 PM,\" which immediately tells me I need a time-based trigger. Looking at n8n's available nodes, the \"Cron\" node is perfect for this. It's designed specifically for scheduling workflows at set intervals or times. So, I'll start by adding a **Cron** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.cron`, typeVersion: `1`).\n\nOnce I've got the Cron node on the canvas, I need to configure it. The requirement is \"daily at 8 PM.\" The Cron node has a `triggerTimes` parameter, and within that, I can specify the hour. So, I'll set the `hour` to `20` (for 8 PM in 24-hour format). This ensures that the workflow will execute exactly when needed, once a day. I wouldn't need to touch anything else for this particular scheduling requirement.\n\nNext, after the workflow is triggered, I need to actually get the \"Astronomy Picture of the Day.\" n8n often has specific nodes for popular APIs, and for NASA's APOD, I'd expect to find one, or I'd use an HTTP Request node if not. Checking the provided JSON, it looks like there's a dedicated **NASA** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.nasa`, typeVersion: `1`), which is super convenient! This saves me from having to manually construct HTTP requests to the NASA API.\n\nI'll drag that NASA node onto the canvas and connect it directly from the Cron node's \"main\" output. This means that every time the Cron node triggers at 8 PM, it will pass control to the NASA node to fetch the APOD.\n\nNow, configuring the NASA node. The prompt just asks for the \"Astronomy Picture of the Day,\" which is the default operation for the NASA node. I don't need to specify a date or anything complex. There's a `download` parameter; I'll set that to `false` because I don't necessarily need to download the file to the n8n server, I just need the URL to pass it along to Telegram. The API key for NASA would be configured in its own credentials section, which I won't detail here, but it would be referenced by the node, like `NASA` in this case. The main thing this node will output is the data from the APOD API, including the `url` of the image and its `title`.\n\nFinally, once I have the APOD data (the image URL and title), I need to send it to a Telegram channel. This clearly calls for a **Telegram** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.telegram`, typeVersion: `1`).\n\nI'll connect the output of the NASA node to the input of the Telegram node. This ensures that the data fetched by the NASA node is available for the Telegram node to use.\n\nConfiguring the Telegram node:\nThe user prompt specifies \"including the image and its title as the caption.\" This means I need to use an operation that supports sending photos. The `sendPhoto` operation is the right choice here.\n\nFor the `file` parameter, I won't be uploading a local file. Instead, the image is available via a URL from the NASA API. I can reference the data that came from the previous node using an expression. Since the NASA node outputs the URL, I'll set the `file` parameter to an expression like `={{$node[\"NASA\"].json[\"url\"]}}`. This tells Telegram to fetch the image directly from that URL.\n\nNext, the message needs to go to a specific `chat ID`. The prompt provides `-485365454`, so I'll input that value directly into the `chatId` field. This is how Telegram knows which channel or chat to send the message to.\n\nLastly, for the caption, the prompt says \"its title as the caption.\" The NASA node provides the title in its output. So, similar to the file URL, I'll use an expression for the `caption` field: `={{$node[\"NASA\"].json[\"title\"]}}`. This will dynamically pull the title of the APOD and use it as the caption for the image in the Telegram message.\n\nJust like with the NASA node, the Telegram node would also require credentials, which would be an API token for a Telegram bot, referenced here as `Telegram n8n bot`.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow flows from the Cron trigger, which pulls the latest APOD data, and then sends that data as a photo with a caption to the specified Telegram channel. The connections ensure the data flows correctly from one step to the next, making the necessary information available down the line." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFileTreeofThought\" that triggers via a webhook, fetches content from the Google Doc URL `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/17wGTu3cp28q3d3SmjXwQ4m-rB2Sdq7JjrUYu1KLMEU8\/view` using a Google Docs credential, and then responds to the webhook with the fetched content.

On top of that, it needs a specific name and some tags.\n\nSo, first things first, how does this workflow even *start*? The prompt mentions \"triggers via a webhook.\" This immediately tells me our very first node has to be a `Webhook` node. It's the standard entry point for external requests into an n8n workflow. Looking at the JSON, indeed, we have a `Webhook` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and it's `typeVersion 2`. That's a good choice, as it's the current stable version for webhooks.\n\nNow, how should this webhook be configured? I see its `responseMode` is set to `responseNode`. This is important. It means this `Webhook` node itself won't directly generate the response; instead, it will wait for a later node in the workflow to explicitly send a response back. This is exactly what we want, because we need to fetch data *first* before responding. If it were set to `lastNode`, it would just respond with the output of the final node, which might not be formatted how we want, or it might respond too soon. The `path` parameter is just a unique identifier for this specific webhook endpoint, nothing we need to concern ourselves with for the logic.\n\nOnce the webhook triggers, what's next? The core task is to \"fetch content from the Google Doc URL.\" This clearly points to using the `Google Docs` node. It's purpose-built for interacting with Google Docs. Checking the JSON, there's a `Google Docs` node, type `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion 2`. Perfect.\n\nFor the `Google Docs` node's configuration, the most critical parameter here is the `operation`. We're fetching content, so \"get\" is the logical choice. The `documentURL` would be configured with the specific URL provided in the prompt. I need to make sure *not* to include the actual URL here, but just note that this is where it goes. It also requires `credentials`. Since it's interacting with a Google service, it would need a Google Docs OAuth2 credential configured and selected, allowing it to authenticate and access the document. The data flow here is straightforward: the `Webhook` node just passes its execution to the `Google Docs` node, which then goes off and retrieves the document content. The output of this `Google Docs` node will be the content of the document, typically in a structured JSON format, often with a key like `content` or `body`.\n\nFinally, after fetching the content, the prompt states \"responds to the webhook with the fetched content.\" This is where the `Respond to Webhook` node comes in. It's explicitly designed to send a response back to the initiating `Webhook` node when its `responseMode` is set to `responseNode`. The JSON confirms this, with a `Respond to Webhook` node, type `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion 1.1`.\n\nHow do we configure this response? We want to send the *content* fetched from the Google Doc. So, the `respondWith` parameter should be set to `text`, as we're likely sending back the raw text content of the document. Then, for the `responseBody`, this is where we link it to the output of the previous node. The Google Docs node will output the document content, typically as a field named `content`. So, an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` would be used here. This tells the `Respond to Webhook` node to take the value of the `content` property from the incoming JSON data (which comes from the Google Docs node) and use that as the body of the webhook response.\n\nThe connections are just a simple linear flow:\n1. The `Webhook` node connects its `main` output to the `Google Docs` node's `main` input. This means once the webhook is triggered, the execution moves directly to fetching the document.\n2. Then, the `Google Docs` node connects its `main` output to the `Respond to Webhook` node's `main` input. This ensures that after the document content is retrieved, it's passed along to the node responsible for sending the response.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it! The workflow name \"GetOnboardingFileTreeofThought\" is applied at the workflow level, and the specified tags (\"Day4\", \"PromptEngineer\", \"Files\", \"Onboarding\") would also be associated with the overall workflow definition. The sequence of nodes and their configurations perfectly matches the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object for a new voice agent named \"AGENTE DE VOZ - VENDEDOR SOLUCI\u00d3N\".

The key is to get all the metadata exactly right, including specific IDs, a name, and even future timestamps. The provided JSON is essentially the target output, so my thought process needs to explain *how I'd arrive at that specific structure*.\n\nMy first thought when approaching a new workflow is always: what's the purpose? Here, it's for a \"new voice agent named AGENTE DE VOZ - VENDEDOR SOLUCI\u00d3N.\" This immediately tells me what the `name` field of the workflow's top-level JSON object should be. It needs to be `AGENTE DE VOZ - VENDEDOR SOLUCI\u00d3N`. This is critical for human identification within the n8n interface.\n\nNext, the prompt is very specific about the unique identifiers. It gives an `id` and a `versionId`.\nThe `id` field is the unique identifier for this specific workflow instance. It ensures that this workflow can be referenced distinctly within the n8n system. So, I'd make sure to set this to `CcRwXOu8gMRB1LGY` as requested. This is vital for system consistency.\nSimilarly, the `versionId` is provided as `6b6a82c9-d454-4c59-a13f-5e489510f9e9`. This helps track specific versions of the workflow's definition over time. I'll ensure this is precisely matched.\n\nNow, for the timestamps: `createdAt` and `updatedAt`. The prompt explicitly asks for \"future timestamps\" and provides the exact value `2025-04-04T20:11:53.532Z` for both. This is interesting because typically these would reflect the actual time of creation or last modification. Setting them to a future date is a specific requirement, perhaps for a scheduled rollout or a versioning strategy. So, I'll populate both `createdAt` and `updatedAt` with `2025-04-04T20:11:53.532Z`.\n\nThen I look at the `nodes` array. This is where the actual logic of the workflow would reside. However, the prompt is about generating a *new* agent's JSON object, and the provided example JSON has an empty `nodes` array. This tells me that for this particular request, we're defining the *shell* of the workflow, not its operational steps yet. It's like preparing a project file before you've added any code. So, the `nodes` array will remain empty. This means there's no need to consider specific node types (like `Webhook`, `HTTP Request`, `Set`, etc.) or their `typeVersion` at this stage, as no processing nodes are being defined.\n\nBecause the `nodes` array is empty, it naturally follows that the `connections` object will also be empty. There are no nodes to connect, so no connections can exist between them.\n\nLooking at other top-level properties:\n* `active`: The provided JSON sets this to `false`. This makes perfect sense for a newly defined, empty workflow. I wouldn't want it to run without any logic configured. Once nodes are added and tested, this flag would be set to `true` to enable execution.\n* `meta`: This is `null` in the example. It's a field for additional, non-essential metadata. For a basic definition, `null` is the appropriate default.\n* `pinData`: This is an empty object. This typically contains positional data for nodes on the canvas. Since there are no nodes, there's no layout information, so an empty object is correct.\n* `settings`: It contains `\"executionOrder\": \"v1\"`. This is a standard n8n setting, defining the execution model. `v1` is the current default and generally what you'd use unless there's a specific legacy or advanced execution requirement. I'll stick with `v1`.\n* `staticData`: This is `null`. It's for data that persists between workflow executions but isn't part of the core node data. For a new, empty workflow, `null` is fine.\n* `tags`: This is an empty array. If this voice agent were part of a larger categorization system, I might add tags like `[\"voice\", \"sales\"]` to help organize workflows. But for a fresh definition, an empty array is appropriate.\n* `triggerCount`: It's `0`. This indicates that the workflow hasn't been triggered yet, which is expected for a new definition.\n\nSo, the overall design process boils down to precisely populating these top-level metadata fields according to the strict requirements, understanding that the workflow's functional `nodes` will be added later. It's about defining the workflow's identity rather than its immediate operational logic." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Search DB' that starts with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node, followed by a 'Set' node that assigns the string '10 results found' to a field named 'response'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Search DB\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [640, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"10 results found\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [860, 380]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start designing this n8n workflow from scratch. The user wants a workflow named \"Search DB,\" and it has a very specific structure outlined.\n\nFirst, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a way to get triggered. The prompt explicitly states it should \"start with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node.\" Looking at the provided JSON, I see exactly that: a node with the `name` \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" and the `type` `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`. Its `typeVersion` is 1. This is an excellent choice for a workflow that's expected to be called by another workflow or an external system via an API. It's not based on a schedule, a webhook, or a file watcher; it just waits to be explicitly told to run. For its parameters, the JSON shows an empty `parameters` object, which is typical for this node when it's simply acting as a placeholder to be triggered. So, I'd place this node down first, understanding it's the entry point for our \"Search DB\" operation.\n\nNext, the prompt says this trigger should be \"followed by a 'Set' node that assigns the string '10 results found' to a field named 'response'.\" I need a node that can manipulate data items and add new fields to them. In n8n, the \"Set\" node is precisely designed for this.\n\nLooking at the JSON, I find a node named \"Edit Fields.\" While the prompt said \"Set\" node, the JSON clarifies its `type` as `n8n-nodes-base.set`. This confirms it *is* the \"Set\" node; sometimes n8n nodes have a slightly different display name than their internal type, or they might be user-renamed. The `typeVersion` for this Set node is 3.4, indicating it's a modern version, likely with good features for data manipulation.\n\nNow, I need to configure this \"Edit Fields\" (Set) node to meet the requirement. The prompt specifies assigning the string \"10 results found\" to a field named \"response.\" The JSON for the \"Edit Fields\" node shows its `parameters` contain an `assignments` array. Inside this array, there's a single assignment: `{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"10 results found\", \"type\": \"string\"}`. This perfectly matches the requirement. I'd configure the Set node to add a new property, name it \"response,\" and set its value to the static string \"10 results found,\" ensuring the type is explicitly set to \"string.\" This will ensure that any data item passing through this node will have this new field and value attached to it.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" needs to pass its output (or signal that it has been triggered) to the \"Edit Fields\" node. The `connections` object in the JSON shows `{\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This tells me that the \"main\" output of the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node should connect to the \"main\" input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This ensures a direct flow: when the trigger activates, it sends an item (even if it's an empty one from the trigger itself) to the Set node, which then adds the desired 'response' field and its value, making that data available for any subsequent nodes (though in this specific workflow, there are none, implying this might be the final output).\n\nThe workflow's `active` status is `false`, which is typical when building and before deploying. The `executionOrder` is `v1`, a standard setting.

The prompt clearly states \"Start with a manual trigger.\" This is perfect for testing and running the workflow on demand, which seems to be the intent here given the \"test data\" instruction. So, I'll definitely need a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, I see `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. That's the one. I'd place it at the very beginning of the workflow, logically, like at `[0, 0]` on the canvas.\n\nNow, how do I get that test data into it? The prompt specifies `[{\"a\": 1}, {\"a\": 2}]`. For a Manual Trigger, this test data is typically configured directly within the node's settings, often as \"Test Data\" or \"Input Data\" when you're setting it up in the UI. In the JSON, this is reflected in the `pinData` section, where it associates the data `[{\"a\": 1}, {\"a\": 2}]` with the `When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019` node. This means when someone triggers the workflow, these two items will be the initial input for the next node in the chain.\n\nNext, the prompt says, \"Connect this to an If node that checks if `$json.a` equals 3.\" So, the data coming out of our Manual Trigger needs to go directly into an **If** node. The JSON confirms this connection: `When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019`'s `main` output connects to the `If` node's `main` input. This makes sense; the `If` node needs to receive the `[{\"a\": 1}, {\"a\": 2}]` items to evaluate them.\n\nNow, let's configure this **If** node. It's `n8n-nodes-base.if` with `typeVersion: 2.2`. The core requirement is to check if `$json.a` equals 3. This means we need to set up a condition. The `leftValue` of our condition needs to reference the incoming data's `a` property. So, I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.a }}`. This is a common n8n pattern to access properties from the current item's JSON data. For the `rightValue`, it's simply `3`. As for the comparison, since `a` is a number and `3` is a number, we should use a numeric comparison. So the `operator` should be `type: \"number\", operation: \"equals\"`. This ensures that we're comparing the numerical values directly, not as strings, which is important for accurate comparisons. The JSON shows `caseSensitive: true` and `typeValidation: \"strict\"`, which are good defaults for robust checks, though for a simple number comparison, they don't have a huge impact.\n\nFinally, the prompt states, \"route both its true and false branches to a DebugHelper node.\" This is straightforward. The **If** node has two distinct output branches: one for when the condition is true and one for when it's false. Both of these need to lead to a **DebugHelper** node. I'll add a **DebugHelper** node (`n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper`, `typeVersion: 1`). The purpose of a DebugHelper is, well, for debugging! It allows you to inspect the data flowing through your workflow at that point. It's incredibly useful during development.\n\nThe JSON correctly shows that the `If` node's `main` output is connected twice to the `DebugHelper` node. This effectively means both the true and false paths will feed into the *same* DebugHelper node. This is a common pattern when you want to see all outcomes of a branch, regardless of whether the condition was met or not, at a single inspection point. The `DebugHelper` node's parameters show `category: \"randomData\"` and `alwaysOutputData: true`. While the `randomData` category doesn't seem directly relevant to this specific use case (it's often used when the DebugHelper generates data), `alwaysOutputData: true` is a standard setting for debug nodes, ensuring they always process and output the data, making them reliable for inspection.\n\nSo, to summarize the flow: Data `[{\"a\": 1}, {\"a\": 2}]` starts at the Manual Trigger. It moves to the If node. For the first item `{\"a\": 1}`, the condition `$json.a` equals `3` will be false. For the second item `{\"a\": 2}`, the condition `$json.a` equals `3` will also be false. Both of these items, after being evaluated by the If node, will then pass through the false branch (though conceptually, both true and false paths are directed to the same node in this setup) and arrive at the DebugHelper node for me to inspect them. Perfect for seeing what data came through each path during testing." } { "prompt": "Generate JSON for an inactive n8n sub-workflow named \"My Sub-Workflow 1\" that is triggered by another workflow, connecting to a \"Replace me with your logic\" placeholder node, and includes \"Misapr-bro\/n8n_template\/backup\" as its repository path.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My Sub-Workflow 1\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When Executed by Another Workflow\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [260, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Replace me with your logic\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.noOp\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [520, 340]}], \"connections\": {\"When Executed by Another Workflow\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Replace me with your logic\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start thinking through how we'd build this n8n sub-workflow, \"My Sub-Workflow 1,\" from the ground up, keeping in mind it needs to be inactive and callable by another workflow, with a specific repository path.\n\nFirst things first, I need to establish the basic characteristics of the workflow itself. The prompt specifies it should be named \"My Sub-Workflow 1\" and, critically, it needs to be \"inactive.\" So, right away, when I'm setting up this new workflow, I'd make sure its `name` property is set to \"My Sub-Workflow 1\" and its `active` status is `false`. This ensures it won't run accidentally or automatically until it's explicitly activated.\n\nThen there's the repository path: \"Misapr-bro\/n8n_template\/backup.\" This tells me about its version control integration. I'd set the `repo_owner` to \"Misapr-bro\", the `repo_name` to \"n8n_template\", and the `repo_path` to \"backup\/\". These details are important for how the workflow is managed within a version control system. Other metadata like `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, `id`, `versionId`, and `settings` like `executionOrder` would be generated or set to their default values as the workflow is created within n8n; `v1` for execution order is a common default.\n\nNow, onto the actual logic within the workflow. The prompt says it's \"triggered by another workflow.\" This immediately brings to mind a specific type of trigger node. The perfect fit for this is the **Execute Workflow Trigger** node. I'd add this as the very first node in the workflow, as it's the entry point. Its `type` would be `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`. Looking at the provided JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1.1`. This is a stable version, and using it ensures compatibility with typical n8n setups. I'd give it a clear, descriptive `name` like \"When Executed by Another Workflow,\" which makes its purpose obvious at a glance. For this particular trigger, there usually aren't any specific `parameters` to configure; it simply listens for an execution call from another workflow. I'd place it visually on the canvas, perhaps at `[260, 340]`, which is a good starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt states it needs to be \"connecting to a 'Replace me with your logic' placeholder node.\" This implies that after our workflow is triggered, it should immediately hand off control to a node that's essentially a placeholder for future development. For this, the best choice is a **No Operation** node. This node, with `type` `n8n-nodes-base.noOp`, does exactly what its name suggests: nothing. It simply passes data through without modification or performing any actions, making it perfect as a temporary stand-in. Its `typeVersion` would be default, likely `1` or `1.1` in modern n8n versions, and in this case, `1` would be assumed. I'd name it exactly as requested: \"Replace me with your logic.\" Like the trigger, it doesn't require any specific `parameters`. I'd position it to the right of the trigger, maybe at `[520, 340]`, so there's a clear visual flow.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The output of our \"When Executed by Another Workflow\" trigger needs to feed into our \"Replace me with your logic\" placeholder. I'd draw a connection from the \"main\" output of the trigger node to the \"main\" input of the \"No Operation\" node. This connection ensures that as soon as the sub-workflow is executed by another workflow, control immediately passes to our designated placeholder. The connection in the JSON would look like `\"When Executed by Another Workflow\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Replace me with your logic\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`, which means the primary output of the trigger connects to the primary input of the placeholder node. This simple connection establishes the basic flow: trigger, then wait for real logic.\n\nThat covers all the requirements. The workflow is inactive, has the correct name and repository path, is triggered by another workflow, and includes the specified placeholder, ready for future development." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, tweets \"Hello from n8n!\", and then uses an IF node to check if the current run index equals 4. If true, route back to the Twitter node; otherwise, route to a NoOp node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"conditions\": {\"number\": [{\"value1\": \"={{$runIndex}}\", \"value2\": 4}]}}, \"name\": \"IF\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.if\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 150]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"NoOp\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.noOp\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [750, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"Hello from n8n!\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Twitter\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.twitter\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [440, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"IF\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Twitter\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}], [{\"node\": \"NoOp\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Twitter\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"IF\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Twitter\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start sketching this workflow out. The first thing that jumps out from the prompt is that it needs to \"manually trigger.\" So, the absolute starting point, the entry point for our workflow, has to be something that allows a user to initiate it with a click.\n\nFor that, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node is perfect. It's designed exactly for this purpose. I'd place it right at the beginning of my workflow canvas. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the standard for this node, indicating it's a stable and well-defined version. There are no specific parameters to configure for it beyond its basic existence; it simply waits for an execution command. So, I'll just drop it on the canvas and that's our starting pistol.\n\nNext, the prompt says, \"tweets 'Hello from n8n!'\". This immediately tells me I need a node that can interact with Twitter. The `n8n-nodes-base.twitter` node is the obvious choice here. I'd connect its single output to the input of this new Twitter node. So, the moment the `manualTrigger` fires, it should pass control to the Twitter node.\n\nFor configuring the Twitter node, the prompt specifies the exact text: `\"Hello from n8n!\"`. I'll set the `text` parameter to this exact string. This ensures every time this node runs, it posts that specific message. The `additionalFields` are empty, so no special options like media attachments or specific tweet IDs are needed for this simple task. Of course, this node needs to authenticate with Twitter. Looking at the JSON, it uses `twitterOAuth1Api` credentials, which would be a predefined credential set configured within n8n. I wouldn't specify the actual sensitive tokens here, but just note that a valid set of Twitter API credentials would need to be in place for this node to actually function and tweet. Its `typeVersion` is also `1`, meaning it's using the standard Twitter node functionality.\n\nAfter tweeting, the prompt states we need to \"use an IF node to check if the current run index equals 4.\" This is a crucial branching point. So, the logical next step is to take the output from the `Twitter` node and feed it into an `n8n-nodes-base.if` node. I'd draw a connection from the `Twitter` node's output to the `IF` node's input.\n\nNow, for the `IF` node's configuration: The condition is key here. It needs to check the \"current run index.\" n8n conveniently provides an expression for this: `{{$runIndex}}`. This variable automatically holds the current execution count for the workflow. So, I'll set up a condition of type `number` (since `$runIndex` is a number). The `value1` will be set to `={{$runIndex}}`, and the operation will be `equals`, with `value2` set to `4`. This precisely matches the requirement \"if the current run index equals 4.\" The `typeVersion` is `1` for this `IF` node as well.\n\nThis `IF` node is designed to have two outputs: one for \"true\" and one for \"false\". The prompt specifies what happens in both cases.\n\nIf the condition is \"true\" (i.e., `$runIndex` *does* equal 4), the prompt says to \"route back to the Twitter node.\" This is interesting; it creates a loop! So, from the \"true\" output of the `IF` node, I'd draw a connection back to the input of the `Twitter` node. This means if it's the 4th run (or any subsequent 4th run in a continuous execution if manually triggered repeatedly), it will tweet again. This is a deliberate loop, ensuring the tweet happens multiple times under that specific condition.\n\nOn the \"otherwise\" side, if the condition is \"false\" (meaning `$runIndex` is *not* 4), the prompt says to \"route to a NoOp node.\" This indicates the end of that particular path of execution for that run, or at least a point where no further action is taken. So, from the \"false\" output of the `IF` node, I'd connect it to an `n8n-nodes-base.noOp` node. This node literally does \"no operation.\" It's essentially a placeholder or a graceful way to terminate a branch of the workflow without error, indicating that for this specific execution path, the work is done. It doesn't have any parameters to configure, just its presence signals the end of this particular logic flow. Its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n\nSo, to recap the flow:\n1. Manually trigger.\n2. Tweet \"Hello from n8n!\".\n3. Check if it's the 4th run.\n4. If it is the 4th run, loop back and tweet again.\n5. If it's *not* the 4th run, just do nothing and effectively end that execution path.\n\nThis covers all the requirements and correctly reflects the connections and configurations described in the JSON. Seems like a solid design for the given prompt." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that, when invoked via a webhook, fetches the text content from the Google Doc at `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1DCysJeNCkNVxDINeuEoOlEeoyHsuvpajMnajrkM3E8Y\/view` and returns it as the webhook's response.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFileAI agent definition\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"a793374f-13f1-4bb2-b7d6-f709893abd7d\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1DCysJeNCkNVxDINeuEoOlEeoyHsuvpajMnajrkM3E8Y\/view\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The goal is clear: trigger it with a webhook, pull text from a Google Doc, and then send that text back as the webhook's response.\n\nFirst things first, how does this workflow even start? The prompt explicitly says \"when invoked via a webhook.\" So, the very first node has to be a trigger that listens for incoming HTTP requests. That means I'm going to start with a **Webhook** node. Looking at the JSON, it confirms this choice: it's of `type: n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion: 2`. This node is perfect because it gives us a unique URL to send requests to, which will kick off the whole process. I'd configure its `path` parameter to define the endpoint for this webhook, making it specific to this workflow's purpose. The `responseMode` parameter is also set to `responseNode`, which is crucial here because we want to send a custom response *after* processing, not immediately. If it were set to `lastNode`, the webhook would just respond with whatever the very last node in the workflow outputs, which might not be what we want if we need more control over the response format, as we do here by specifying text content.\n\nOnce the webhook triggers, the next step in our logical flow is to actually \"fetch the text content from the Google Doc.\" To interact with Google Docs, n8n provides a dedicated node. So, I'll add a **Google Docs** node next. The JSON shows `type: n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is the right tool for the job. It handles the complexities of integrating with Google's API for us.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Google Docs node? The prompt gives us a specific Google Doc URL. So, the `documentURL` parameter within the `parameters` of this node will be where that URL is provided. The `operation` parameter needs to be set to \"get\" because we're trying to retrieve content *from* the document. If we wanted to create or update, we'd choose a different operation, but \"get\" is exactly what's required here to pull the text. And, of course, for any Google service, authentication is necessary. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"googleDocsOAuth2Api\": ...}` which means it will use a pre-configured Google OAuth2 account to authorize access to the document. This is standard practice for secure API interactions. This node connects directly from the `Webhook` node, passing the execution flow to it after the webhook is triggered.\n\nFinally, after successfully fetching the text content from the Google Doc, the last requirement is to \"return it as the webhook's response.\" The data from the Google Docs node, specifically the `content` field that holds the document's text, needs to be sent back. For this, I'll use a **Respond to Webhook** node. The JSON confirms this: `type: n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node is specifically designed to send a custom response back to the original caller of the webhook, which is exactly what we need.\n\nFor configuring the `Respond to Webhook` node, the `respondWith` parameter is set to `text`. This ensures that the response body is treated as plain text, which is suitable for returning the raw content of the Google Doc. The `responseBody` parameter is where the magic happens for transferring data. It uses an expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This means it's taking the `content` property from the JSON output of the *previous* node (which is our Google Docs node) and directly using that as the body of the webhook response. This effectively pipes the fetched document content right back to the caller. This node connects directly from the `Google Docs` node, ensuring that the response is only sent *after* the document content has been successfully retrieved.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow starts with the webhook trigger, gets the document content, and then responds with that content. Simple and effective." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'planes' that starts manually.

This immediately tells me a few things about the overall workflow settings and the initial trigger. I'll make sure the workflow's name is set to \"planes\" and its active status is set to `false`.\n\nNow, onto the actual structure of the workflow itself. The very first thing a workflow needs is a way to kick it off, a trigger. Since the prompt specifies \"starts manually\", the most straightforward and appropriate node for this is a manual trigger.\n\nSo, for the first node, I'm going to add a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the provided JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it allows the workflow to be initiated by a user clicking a \"Test workflow\" button, which aligns perfectly with the \"starts manually\" requirement. It doesn't need much configuration beyond just being present as the starting point. It essentially provides a single item to kick off the flow.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow \"should make an HTTP request to `http:\/\/dwhservernew.servers.dg.intranet\/bot\/pedidosDePlanes.csv`\". This clearly indicates the need for an HTTP request node.\n\nSo, I'll connect an **HTTP Request** node directly after the Manual Trigger. Based on the JSON, this node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` and `typeVersion` is `4.2`. This is the standard node for fetching data from web endpoints. The Manual Trigger will simply pass its execution, and the HTTP Request node will then perform the web call. For its configuration, the crucial part is setting the `URL` parameter. While I won't specify the exact URL here, it would be configured to point to the provided document URL. I also see `alwaysOutputData` is set to `true` in the JSON, which is a good practice for HTTP requests that are expected to return data that needs to be processed by subsequent nodes; it ensures the node always outputs something, even if the request itself doesn't return a typical JSON structure, which is important for binary data like a CSV.\n\nAfter making the HTTP request, the prompt states \"then extract data from the downloaded file\". This implies that the HTTP request will download a file (a `.csv` file in this case, as indicated by the URL), and we need to parse its content.\n\nTherefore, the next logical step is to add an **Extract from File** node, connected from the HTTP Request node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.extractFromFile` and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is specifically designed to take file data (which the HTTP Request node would output, especially with `alwaysOutputData` enabled) and parse it into a structured format, like JSON objects, based on the file type. Since we're dealing with a CSV, this node would intelligently detect that and convert each row into a separate item or a collection of items, making it easy to process. It generally requires minimal configuration if the file type is standard, as it can often auto-detect it.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"and finally loop over the extracted items for processing.\" This means we'll have a collection of data items after the file extraction, and we need to process them individually or in batches.\n\nFor this, I'll add a **Loop Over Items** node, connected after the Extract from File node. The JSON shows this node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.splitInBatches` and `typeVersion` is `3`. While its name in the JSON is \"Loop Over Items\" and its type is `splitInBatches`, this node is commonly used to iterate over a list of items, either one by one or in smaller defined groups. The \"Loop Over Items\" name perfectly reflects its functional purpose here. The `splitInBatches` node is ideal because it takes a potentially large number of input items and allows them to be processed one by one or in configurable batches. This is crucial for handling operations that need to occur for each individual record from the CSV. The node has two outputs: one for the items in the current batch (which would lead to the \"processing\" part, though that's not detailed in the prompt, so this marks the end of the specified workflow's scope), and another output to loop back to itself if further batches need to be processed, ensuring all items are covered. For this specific workflow, there are no additional parameters configured, meaning it would likely process items one by one by default unless a batch size is specified. The main goal here is to enable iteration over the parsed data." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that, when manually executed, creates a Pipedrive deal with an empty title and no additional fields.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Create an deal in Pipedrive\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"title\": \"\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Pipedrive\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.pipedrive\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Pipedrive\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's design this n8n workflow from scratch, thinking through each piece as we go.\n\nThe prompt specifies two key things: \"when manually executed\" and \"creates a Pipedrive deal with an empty title and no additional fields.\"\n\nSo, the very first thing I need to think about is how this workflow gets started. \"Manually executed\" immediately tells me I need a trigger node that a user can simply click to run. n8n has a perfect node for this: the `Manual Trigger`.\n\nI'll add the `Manual Trigger` node first. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is ideal because its sole purpose is to initiate a workflow on demand. It doesn't require any external events, webhooks, or schedules. It simply provides the \"start\" button. For configuration, a manual trigger usually doesn't need any specific parameters to be set; it just fires an execution. So, its `parameters` will be an empty object `{}`. I'll give it a descriptive name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's clear what it does.\n\nNext, the core of the request is to \"create a Pipedrive deal.\" This clearly indicates I'll need a node that can interact with Pipedrive. n8n provides a dedicated `Pipedrive` node for this.\n\nI'll add the `Pipedrive` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.pipedrive`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is designed to handle various operations within Pipedrive, so it's the right choice for creating a deal.\n\nNow, how does the `Pipedrive` node connect to the `Manual Trigger`? The `Manual Trigger` needs to pass its execution to the `Pipedrive` node so that the deal creation happens *after* the workflow is manually triggered. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` to the `main` input of the `Pipedrive` node. This means when the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node fires, it will pass control to the `Pipedrive` node.\n\nWith the `Pipedrive` node in place, I need to configure it to actually create the deal. Within the Pipedrive node's settings, I'd typically choose the \"Resource\" as \"Deal\" and the \"Operation\" as \"Create\". The JSON confirms this implicitly by showing parameters relevant to deal creation.\n\nThe prompt has specific requirements for the deal's data: \"with an empty title and no additional fields.\"\n\nFor the \"empty title,\" the `Pipedrive` node will have a `title` parameter. I'll set this parameter to an empty string: `\"title\": \"\"`. This directly fulfills that part of the requirement.\n\nFor \"no additional fields,\" the `Pipedrive` node often provides an `additionalFields` parameter or a similar section where you can add extra data, like custom fields or other standard fields not directly exposed at the top level. To ensure \"no additional fields\" are sent, I need to explicitly set this `additionalFields` parameter to an empty object: `\"additionalFields\": {}`. This prevents any default or pre-filled values from being sent along with the deal creation request. If I left this out, the node might send some default values, which is not what's intended.\n\nFinally, for the `Pipedrive` node to work, it needs to authenticate with Pipedrive. There's a `credentials` section for this. The JSON shows `\"credentials\": {\"pipedriveApi\": \"\"}`. This means that a Pipedrive API credential will need to be configured or selected here. I wouldn't put any actual API key value directly in the workflow itself, but an n8n user would select their pre-saved Pipedrive API key or create a new one in the n8n credentials manager and associate it with this node. The empty string is a placeholder indicating that a credential setup is required.\n\nSo, to summarize the `Pipedrive` node's configuration:\n- `name`: \"Pipedrive\" (a clear, descriptive name).\n- `type`: `n8n-nodes-base.pipedrive`.\n- `typeVersion`: `1`.\n- `parameters`:\n - `title`: `\"\"` (to create a deal with an empty title).\n - `additionalFields`: `{}` (to ensure no other fields are set).\n- `credentials`:\n - `pipedriveApi`: `\"\"` (awaiting the actual API key configuration by the user).\n\nThis structure directly addresses all parts of the user's prompt. The manual trigger starts it, and the Pipedrive node performs the exact creation with the specified empty title and no other data." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow that generates example JSON data, converts it into a binary format, and then saves it to a file named `test.json`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"test.json\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [800, 350]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"items[0].binary = {\\n data: {\\n data: new Buffer(JSON.stringify(items[0].json, null, 2)).toString('base64')\\n }\\n};\\nreturn items;\"}, \"name\": \"Make Binary\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.function\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 350]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"items[0].json = {\\n \\\"text\\\": \\\"asdf\\\",\\n \\\"number\\\": 1\\n};\\nreturn items;\"}, \"name\": \"Create Example Data\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.function\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [390, 350]}], \"connections\": {\"Make Binary\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Create Example Data\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Make Binary\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this n8n workflow from scratch based on the user's request. The goal is pretty clear: generate some example JSON, turn it into a binary format, and then save it as a file named `test.json`.\n\nMy first thought is, how do I generate the initial data? We need to create some simple JSON. For generating arbitrary data like this, a `Function` node is usually my go-to choice. It lets me write some JavaScript to create exactly what I need and output it as part of the n8n item.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a `Function` node. Its full type name would be `n8n-nodes-base.function`, and I'll use `typeVersion: 1` as that's the standard and stable version for this core node. I'll call this node \"Create Example Data\".\n\nInside this \"Create Example Data\" node, I'll need to write some JavaScript code in its `functionCode` parameter. The user prompt doesn't specify *what* the JSON should be, just that it's example data. So, I'll create a simple JSON object and attach it to the `json` property of the first item, like this:\n```javascript\nitems[0].json = {\n \"text\": \"asdf\",\n \"number\": 1\n};\nreturn items;\n```\nThis ensures the generated JSON is available for the next step.\n\nNext, the user wants to \"convert it into a binary format.\" This is a crucial step because n8n has a specific way it handles binary data internally. It expects binary data to be stored in an item's `binary` property, structured as an object with a `data` property, which itself has a `data` property containing the base64 encoded string of the binary content. Since we're starting with JSON, we'll need to stringify it, then encode it to base64.\n\nTo achieve this specific conversion, another `Function` node seems most appropriate. It gives me the flexibility to take the JSON data from the previous node, transform it, and put it into the `binary` property in the exact format n8n expects. I'll add another `Function` node, let's call it \"Make Binary\". Its type will also be `n8n-nodes-base.function` with `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how do I connect these two? The \"Create Example Data\" node produces an item with a `json` property. I need to pass that to the \"Make Binary\" node. A simple main connection from \"Create Example Data\" to \"Make Binary\" will do the trick, passing the item (including its `json` property) along.\n\nInside the \"Make Binary\" node, I'll write the JavaScript for its `functionCode`. I'll access the `json` property from the incoming item, stringify it (important, as the binary file will contain the *text* of the JSON), and then encode that string to base64. Finally, I'll assign it to the `binary` property in the required n8n format:\n```javascript\nitems[0].binary = {\n data: {\n data: new Buffer(JSON.stringify(items[0].json, null, 2)).toString('base64')\n }\n};\nreturn items;\n```\nI'm using `JSON.stringify(items[0].json, null, 2)` to make sure the JSON is nicely formatted with an indent of 2 spaces, which makes the output file more readable.\n\nFinally, the last part of the request is to \"save it to a file named `test.json`.\" For this, n8n has a dedicated node: `Write Binary File`. This is perfect because the previous \"Make Binary\" node has prepared the data in the exact binary format that this node expects.\n\nSo, I'll add a `Write Binary File` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile`, and I'll use `typeVersion: 1`. I'll connect the \"Make Binary\" node's main output to the input of this \"Write Binary File\" node. The \"Make Binary\" node has correctly placed the binary data into the `binary` property of the item, which the `Write Binary File` node will automatically pick up and write.\n\nFor the configuration of the \"Write Binary File\" node, the only parameter I really need to set is `fileName`. The user explicitly asked for the file to be named `test.json`, so I'll set that value directly in the node's parameters: `fileName: \"test.json\"`.\n\nAnd that's it. The flow is complete: Generate JSON, convert it to the internal n8n binary format, and then write that binary data to a specified file. Each node serves a very specific purpose and handles its part of the data transformation or action efficiently. The `typeVersion` of 1 for these base nodes indicates stable and generally expected behavior, so no specific adjustments based on version differences are immediately necessary for this simple use case." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Test workflow 2' that starts with an 'On clicking execute' manual trigger, connected to a Code node which adds `myNewField: 1` to each input item's JSON.

The prompt specifies the name as \"Test workflow 2,\" so that's the very first thing I'd set when creating it. That name will be reflected in the top-level `name` field of the workflow JSON.\n\nNow, for the core logic of the workflow. The prompt says it \"starts with an 'On clicking execute' manual trigger.\" This is straightforward. I need a node that allows the workflow to be run manually, perhaps for testing or for specific, ad-hoc executions.\n\nSo, I'd pull in the **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and currently, it's at `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to start a workflow when someone explicitly clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n editor. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters for its basic function, which is why its `parameters` object is empty in the JSON. I'd position it somewhere convenient on the canvas, like at `[360, 260]`, just a nice starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt states this manual trigger should be \"connected to a Code node which adds `myNewField: 1` to each input item's JSON.\" This tells me the very next step after the manual trigger is to process some data, and that processing involves custom logic \u2013 specifically, modifying the JSON of items.\n\nFor custom logic and data manipulation with JavaScript, the **Code** node is definitely the best choice. It allows for direct access to input items and gives full control over how they are transformed before being passed on. So, I'd add a **Code** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.code`, and it's also at `typeVersion: 1`. I'd place it to the right of the manual trigger, perhaps at `[580, 260]`, to maintain a clear flow.\n\nNow, I need to configure this Code node. The critical part here is the `jsCode` parameter. The goal is to add `myNewField: 1` to *each* input item.\nTo achieve this, I'd write the following JavaScript inside the Code node:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nLet me break down that code.\n* `$input.all()` is a global variable available within the Code node that gives me an array of all the data items currently flowing into this node from the previous one. Even if the manual trigger doesn't pass any specific data by default, it still initializes an \"empty\" item, which this code will then modify.\n* The `for (const item of $input.all())` loop iterates over each of these data items.\n* `item.json` refers to the actual JSON data part of each item. This is where I want to add the new field.\n* `item.json.myNewField = 1;` directly assigns the value `1` to a new property named `myNewField` within the `json` object of the current item.\n* Finally, `return $input.all();` is crucial. The Code node expects a return value, and returning the (now modified) `$input.all()` ensures that the transformed data is passed on to any subsequent nodes in the workflow.\n\nWith the nodes in place, I need to connect them. The prompt says the Code node is \"connected to\" the manual trigger. This means the output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node needs to feed into the input of the \"Code\" node. Looking at the `connections` object in the JSON, it shows that the `main` output of \"On clicking 'execute'\" connects to the `main` input of the \"Code\" node. This is the standard, primary connection type for data flow in n8n, so I'd draw that line on the canvas.\n\nLastly, the prompt mentions \"Include the tags 'other-tag-1' and 'other-tag-2'.\" This is a workflow-level setting, not specific to any node. I'd go into the workflow settings and simply add these two tags. This helps with organization and searching for workflows later. The JSON reflects this in the `tags` array.\n\nAnd that would be it for constructing this workflow based on the requirements. The `active: false` status is just the default when a new workflow is created and not yet activated, and the `pinData`, `settings`, `hash`, `id`, and `meta` fields are internal n8n properties that don't require user configuration for this specific request." } { "prompt": "Design an n8n workflow named 'Test workflow 1' that starts with a manual trigger.

So, right away, when I create a new workflow canvas, the very first thing I'd do is go into the workflow settings and set its name to \"Test workflow 1\". This helps keep things organized from the start.\n\nNow, for the actual workflow logic. The prompt specifies that the workflow \"starts with a manual trigger\". This is straightforward. I'll need a node that allows me to kick off the workflow whenever I choose, typically by clicking an 'Execute Workflow' button in the n8n UI.\n\nSo, the first node I'd add to the canvas would be a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the provided JSON, this corresponds to the node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect for scenarios where the workflow isn't reacting to an external event (like a webhook call or a scheduled time) but rather needs to be explicitly initiated by a user. It doesn't have many parameters to configure itself, usually just its name. The JSON shows its `name` is \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is a perfectly clear default name for it. So, I'd just drag it onto the canvas and leave its default settings.\n\nNext, the prompt says it should \"pass data to a Code node that adds a 'myNewField' property with value 1 to each JSON item\". This tells me I need a node capable of custom JavaScript execution to manipulate the data.\n\nMy immediate thought for custom data transformation is the **Code** node. It's incredibly flexible for this sort of task. So, I'd drag a Code node onto the canvas. Looking at the JSON, this is the node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.code\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This `typeVersion` is the standard and widely used one, so I'm not anticipating any behavioral differences there.\n\nNow, how do I connect these two? The manual trigger needs to send its (potentially empty, or one empty item) data to the Code node for processing. So, I'd draw a connection from the 'main' output of the 'Manual Trigger' node to the 'main' input of the 'Code' node. The JSON confirms this connection: `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This ensures that when the workflow is executed manually, the flow of control (and any default data from the trigger) moves into my Code node.\n\nOnce the Code node is placed and connected, I need to configure its parameters, specifically the `jsCode`. The prompt requires adding a 'myNewField' property with a value of 1 to *each* JSON item. The Code node in the JSON has this code:\n\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\n\nThis is exactly what's needed. The `$input.all()` function retrieves all incoming data items. The `for...of` loop iterates through each `item`. For each `item`, it accesses its `json` property, which represents the actual data payload, and then adds or updates a property named `myNewField` setting its value to `1`. Finally, `return $input.all();` ensures that all the modified items are passed on as output from the Code node. This is a common and robust pattern for processing items in a Code node.\n\nFinally, the prompt mentions tagging the workflow with 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'. These are workflow-level settings, not specific to a node. After setting up the nodes and their connections, I'd go back into the workflow settings (where I initially named the workflow) and find the tagging section. I'd then add \"some-tag-1\" and \"some-tag-2\" as new tags for this workflow. This helps with categorization and searchability later on, especially if you have many workflows. The JSON confirms these tags are present in the `tags` array at the top level.\n\nAnd that's it. The manual trigger starts it, the code node modifies the data as required, and the workflow itself is properly named and tagged. The Code node in this specific case doesn't have an outgoing connection configured in the JSON (indicated by `{\"Code\": {\"main\": [[]]}}`), meaning its output would be the final result of the workflow execution if run manually." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

My goal is to create a flow that starts manually and then interacts with a Cockpit instance to access a specific collection. I'll be referencing the provided JSON structure to ensure I build exactly what's intended.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The user prompt explicitly states \"starts with a manual trigger.\" Looking at the JSON, I see a node defined as `\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"`. This is perfect. It's named \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is a clear description of its function. The `typeVersion` is `1`. This `manualTrigger` node is ideal because it allows a user to initiate the workflow simply by clicking the \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n UI, which perfectly aligns with the requirement for a manual start. There are no special parameters needed for this node; its purpose is solely to begin the execution flow.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt states: \"Connect it to a Cockpit node configured to access the 'samplecollection' and use the 'cockpit api' credentials.\" This tells me the very next step after the manual trigger needs to be a Cockpit interaction.\n\nSo, I'll add a `Cockpit` node. Looking at the JSON, it confirms this with `\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cockpit\"`. This node type, `n8n-nodes-base.cockpit`, is specifically designed to interact with the Cockpit CMS API, allowing us to perform operations like fetching or creating content. The `typeVersion` for this node is also `1`.\n\nNow, let's configure this `Cockpit` node. The prompt has two key pieces of information for configuration:\n1. It needs to access the `'samplecollection'`.\n2. It needs to use the `'cockpit api' credentials`.\n\nChecking the JSON for the `Cockpit` node, under `parameters`, I see `\"collection\": \"samplecollection\"`. This directly translates to configuring the node to target the collection named 'samplecollection' within the Cockpit instance. This is exactly what we need to specify which dataset or content type we're working with.\n\nThen, for credentials, the JSON has `\"credentials\": {\"cockpitApi\": \"cockpit api\"}`. This tells me that the workflow is set up to use a pre-configured credential entry within n8n, which is named \"cockpit api.\" This credential would typically store the necessary authentication details, such as an API key or a bearer token, to securely connect to the Cockpit API without exposing those sensitive values directly in the workflow's definition. We simply refer to the named credential set.\n\nFor the `options` parameter, the JSON shows an empty object: `\"options\": {}`. This implies that for this specific operation, no additional advanced options or specific actions (like \"get\", \"create\", \"update\", etc.) are explicitly defined at this high level. In many Cockpit operations, you'd select a specific action, but here, it seems to be set up for a default or general interaction with the collection based on the context. If we were, for example, to fetch items, we might see an \"Operation\" parameter here set to \"Get All\". However, sticking to the JSON, it's left blank, which means it will likely use the default action if one is implied by merely specifying the collection, or would wait for further configuration if this were just a base node. For now, it just establishes the connection to the collection.\n\nFinally, how do these two nodes connect? The JSON defines the connections: `\"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Cockpit\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This is a standard main connection. It means that when the \"On clicking 'execute'\" manual trigger node is activated, its output (which is essentially just a signal to proceed) is fed directly into the input of the \"Cockpit\" node. There's no complex data transformation or routing here; it's a simple, linear flow. The manual trigger starts the process, and then the Cockpit node is executed.\n\nSo, to summarize, the design is a straightforward two-step process: initiate manually, then interact with a specific Cockpit collection using designated credentials.

Since the prompt specifies Postgres, the most logical starting point for querying data is a **Postgres node**.\n\nSo, I'd add a node and search for \"Postgres\". I'd pick the one with `type: n8n-nodes-base.postgres`. Looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This version handles database interactions.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Postgres node?\n* First, I need to tell it what to do. The goal is to query data, so the `operation` parameter should be set to `executeQuery`. This allows me to write a custom SQL query.\n* Next, for the `query` itself, the prompt explicitly states \"query `name` and `ean` from a Postgres `product` table\". So, the SQL query is straightforward: `SELECT name, ean FROM product`. I'd input that exactly.\n* Finally, this node needs to connect to the actual database. This is where credentials come in. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"postgres\": \"postgres\"}`. This means a Postgres credential, likely named \"postgres\", would be selected and configured separately to hold the database connection details (host, port, user, password, database name). I'd make sure that was set up and linked here. I'd give this node a descriptive name, like \"Run Query\", which is what the JSON calls it. Its position is `[450, 450]`, just for visual layout.\n\nOkay, so now I have the data coming out of the Postgres database. The Postgres node will output this data as a collection of JSON objects, where each object represents a row from the `product` table, with `name` and `ean` fields.\n\nThe next step in the user's request is to \"export this data as an Excel file\". The JSON data isn't directly an Excel file. I need to transform it. I'd start looking for a node that can handle spreadsheet formats.\n\nAha! There's a **Spreadsheet File node**. This sounds exactly like what I need for converting structured data into a spreadsheet format. So, I'd add this node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n\nNow, how does this node fit in? It needs to receive the data from my \"Run Query\" node. So, I'd connect the \"main\" output of the \"Run Query\" node to the \"main\" input of this \"Spreadsheet File\" node.\n\nFor its configuration:\n* The `operation` parameter. I'm taking data and preparing it *for* a file, so `toFile` seems like the most fitting option. This operation is designed to take incoming JSON data and convert it into a binary format that can then be saved as a spreadsheet (like XLSX or XLS).\n\nThis node, \"Spreadsheet File\" (positioned at `[600, 450]`), will now take the JSON data from the Postgres query and output it as binary data formatted for an Excel file.\n\nFinally, I have the binary Excel data, but it's still just data *within* the workflow. The user wants it exported as a file named `spreadsheet.xls`. This means I need a node that can take binary data and write it to a physical file.\n\nThe logical choice here is a **Write Binary File node**. I'd add this node, which has `type: n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile` and `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nHow does this connect? It needs the binary data from the \"Spreadsheet File\" node. So, I'd connect the \"main\" output of the \"Spreadsheet File\" node to the \"main\" input of this \"Write Binary File\" node.\n\nFor its configuration:\n* The most crucial parameter here is `fileName`. The prompt explicitly states the file should be named `spreadsheet.xls`. So, I'd set this parameter to exactly `spreadsheet.xls`. This node (positioned at `[750, 450]`) will then take the Excel-formatted binary data and save it to the specified file name, typically in the n8n workflow's execution directory or a configured output path.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow.

I need an initial point of execution that I can just click to kick off the whole process.\n\nSo, the very first node I'd reach for is the **Manual Trigger** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and looking at the provided structure, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is absolutely perfect for a \"manually triggers\" requirement because it provides that simple \"Execute Workflow\" button right in the n8n UI. There are no specific parameters needed for a basic manual trigger; it just serves as the starting point. I'd give it a descriptive name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's clear what it does.\n\nNext up, the prompt says: \"reads the binary file `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json`\". This immediately tells me I need a node that can interact with the file system and read data from a specific path. And since it's \"binary file\", I'll specifically look for a node that handles binary content.\n\nThe **Read Binary File** node comes to mind.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile`, also `typeVersion: 1`. This is exactly what I need for reading a file directly from the specified path. I'll connect this node directly from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node, using a standard main connection. This ensures that once the workflow is manually triggered, the very next action is to read this file.\n* Now, for configuring it: The prompt specifies the `filePath` as `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json`. So, I'll input that exact path into the `File Path` parameter of this node.\n* Crucially, the prompt also says \"into a property named 'config'\". This is important because the data from the file needs to be stored under a specific key within the item that the node outputs. So, in the `Data Property Name` parameter, I'll enter `config`. This ensures that when the file is read, its content (as binary data) will be accessible in subsequent nodes under the `config` property.\n\nFinally, the prompt states: \"and then converts that 'config' binary data to a UTF-8 string.\" So, after reading the file as binary, I need a way to transform that binary blob into a readable string format, specifically UTF-8.\n\nLooking at the provided JSON, it uses a **Move Binary Data** node for this.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData`, and it's also `typeVersion: 1`. While its common use might be to move binary data between properties or convert it for storage, it also has the capability to encode binary data into a string format. The name \"Convert to JSON\" in the provided JSON might be a little confusing if you just read it in isolation, but looking at its parameters, it clearly targets encoding.\n* I'll connect this node from the \"Read Config File\" node, again using a main connection. This ensures the output of the file reading (which contains the binary 'config' property) is passed directly to this conversion node.\n* For its parameters: The prompt says \"that 'config' binary data,\" so I need to tell this node which binary property to operate on. I'll set the `Source Key` parameter to `config`, matching the property name where the `readBinaryFile` node stored the data.\n* Then, for the conversion itself, it specifies \"to a UTF-8 string.\" This node has an `Options` parameter, and within that, there's an `encoding` option. I'll set `encoding` to `utf8`. This tells the node to take the binary data from the `config` property and convert it into a string using UTF-8 encoding. The output of this node will then be a standard string, ready for further processing, perhaps parsing as JSON or simply logging.

Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is pretty standard for a basic trigger like this; I wouldn't expect major behavioral changes between versions for such a simple node, but it's good to note it. It doesn't need any special parameters configured since its job is just to start the workflow when manually executed.\n\nSo, I'd place that `manualTrigger` node first, maybe calling it \"On clicking 'execute'\" as it's quite descriptive. Its position would be a starting point in our visual canvas, say `[500, 310]`.\n\nNext, the prompt clearly states \"then connects to a Google Tasks node\". This immediately tells me what my second node needs to be. I'll need a node that can interface with Google Tasks. n8n has a dedicated node for that, which is excellent.\n\nI'll pick the `n8n-nodes-base.googleTasks` node. This node type is specifically designed to interact with the Google Tasks API, allowing operations like creating, updating, retrieving, or deleting tasks and task lists. Its `typeVersion` is also `1`, indicating a stable initial version.\n\nNow, how does this `Google Tasks` node connect to the `manualTrigger`? Simple. The `manualTrigger` typically has a single output, `main`. I'll connect that `main` output to the `main` input of the `Google Tasks` node. This means that once the manual trigger runs, it will pass an empty item (or just signal execution) to the Google Tasks node, causing it to activate.\n\nThe next step is configuring the `Google Tasks` node, as per the prompt. It needs to \"interact with the task ID 'MDY3OTAyNjUyMDk5NDY5OTczMzM6MDow'\". So, within the node's parameters, there should be a field for specifying the task. Looking at the JSON, it's `task` and its value is set to that specific ID: `\"MDY3OTAyNjUyMDk5NDY5ODIzMzM6MDow\"`. This is crucial for targeting the exact task that the user wants to interact with.\n\nIt also mentions \"using the 'shraddha' credential\". For any node that connects to an external service like Google Tasks, you need to provide credentials to authenticate with that service. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"googleTasksOAuth2Api\": \"shraddha\"}`. This indicates that an OAuth2 API credential, previously set up in n8n, named 'shraddha' (or whatever the generic internal ID for that credential might be, since I'm just looking at the setup) would be linked here. This credential holds the necessary authorization tokens to access the user's Google Tasks. I'd typically just select it from a dropdown in the n8n UI.\n\nFinally, I see `additionalFields: {}`. This tells me that for this particular interaction, no other specific fields beyond the task ID are being explicitly set or modified. It's a very targeted interaction, perhaps just fetching or triggering a default action on that task.\n\nSo, to summarize the flow, I've got the `manualTrigger` at `[500, 310]`, connecting its main output to the `Google Tasks` node at `[920, 310]`. The `Google Tasks` node is configured with the specified task ID and the appropriate authentication credential. That seems to cover all aspects of the user's prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFile Performance Optimization' that is triggered by a webhook at 'onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/PerformanceOptimization'.

The goal is clear: receive a webhook, fetch a Google Doc, and send its content back as plain text. This sounds like a fairly straightforward chain of events.\n\nFirst things first, I need to name this workflow. The prompt specifies \"GetOnboardingFile Performance Optimization\". I'll also note down the tags that need to be associated with the entire workflow: 'Day 2', 'AI Onboarding', 'Files', 'Onboarding'. These are general workflow properties, not specific to any node, but important for discoverability and organization.\n\nNow, let's think about the actual workflow logic, step by step.\n\nThe very first thing that needs to happen is the workflow being triggered. The prompt explicitly says it's \"triggered by a webhook\". So, the foundational node for this workflow has to be a Webhook node.\n\n1. **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n * **TypeVersion:** `2`\n * **Why this node:** This is the natural starting point for any workflow that needs to be initiated by an external HTTP request. It sets up an endpoint that external systems can call to kick off this process.\n * **Configuration:**\n * I need to set the `path` for this webhook, which the prompt specifies as `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/PerformanceOptimization`. This is the exact URL segment that will make this webhook callable.\n * For `responseMode`, since we need to fetch content first and then respond, I'll set it to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node *not* to immediately send a default response, but instead to wait for a subsequent \"Respond to Webhook\" node to handle the reply. This is crucial for controlling what gets sent back.\n * No other specific `options` are needed for the trigger itself based on the prompt.\n * **Connections:** As the first node, it won't have any incoming connections. Its primary output will then connect to whatever node needs to perform the next action in the sequence.\n\nNext, after the webhook triggers, what's the core task? It's to \"retrieve content from the specified Google Docs URL\". This immediately tells me I'll need a Google Docs node.\n\n2. **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`\n * **TypeVersion:** `2`\n * **Why this node:** This node is purpose-built for interacting with Google Docs. It allows operations like creating, updating, or, in our case, retrieving documents.\n * **Configuration:**\n * The `operation` needs to be set to `get`, as we are retrieving content.\n * For the `documentURL`, a specific Google Docs URL would be configured here. This is where the workflow knows *which* document to fetch.\n * This node will definitely require `credentials` to authenticate with Google Docs. I'd link it to an existing Google Docs OAuth2 account credential that has permission to access the document. Without proper authentication, it wouldn't be able to retrieve the file.\n * **Connections:** The input for this node will come directly from the Webhook node. So, the `main` output of the Webhook will connect to the `main` input of this Google Docs node. This means when the webhook fires, the Google Docs node immediately proceeds to fetch the document. The output of this Google Docs node will be the content of the retrieved document, typically as a `content` property in the JSON data.\n\nFinally, once we have the content from Google Docs, we need to \"respond to the webhook with that content as plain text\". This means we need a specific node to send the response back to the caller of the initial webhook.\n\n3. **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`\n * **TypeVersion:** `1.1`\n * **Why this node:** This node is designed to fulfill the `responseNode` setting we configured in the initial Webhook node. It takes the data from previous nodes and constructs the final HTTP response.\n * **Configuration:**\n * The prompt specifies \"respond with that content as plain text\", so I'll set `respondWith` to `text`. This ensures the HTTP response's Content-Type header is `text\/plain`.\n * For the `responseBody`, I need to use the actual content retrieved from the Google Docs node. The Google Docs node typically outputs the document's text content in a field named `content`. So, I'll use an expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression dynamically inserts the `content` value from the incoming data (which originated from the Google Docs node) into the response body.\n * No other `options` are specified or needed for a basic plain text response.\n * **Connections:** This node needs to receive the document content from the Google Docs node. Therefore, the `main` output of the Google Docs node will connect to the `main` input of this Respond to Webhook node. This ensures that the response is only sent *after* the document has been successfully retrieved.\n\nThis sequential flow \u2014 Webhook triggers, Google Docs fetches, Respond to Webhook sends the content back \u2014 seems to perfectly address all the requirements outlined in the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named 'My workflow 8' that manually triggers.

The request is pretty clear: we need an inactive workflow named 'My workflow 8' that kicks off manually, fetches some customer data, and then adds some specific properties using dot notation.\n\nFirst things first, the workflow itself. It needs to be named 'My workflow 8', and crucially, it must be inactive initially. That's just a setting on the workflow level, so I'll make sure the `active` flag is set to `false` in the overall workflow definition.\n\nNow, let's think about the very first step, how this workflow is going to start. The prompt says \"manually triggers\". This immediately tells me I need a trigger node that responds to a manual execution. The best fit for this is the `Manual Trigger` node.\n\nSo, I'll add a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'll probably call it \"When clicking \u2018Execute workflow\u2019\" to be descriptive of its purpose. It doesn't require any specific parameters, it just sits there waiting for someone to click the \"Execute workflow\" button in the n8n UI. Simple and effective for starting on demand.\n\nOkay, once the workflow is manually triggered, what's next? The prompt states, \"It should then use the 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node to get up to 10 people.\" This points directly to a specific integration node.\n\nSo, the next step would be to add the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is designed specifically for interacting with that training datastore, which is great because it means less setup work for me.\n\nFor its configuration, the prompt specifies \"get up to 10 people\". This translates to setting the `operation` parameter to `getAllPeople`. And to limit it to 10, I'll need to set the `limit` parameter to `10`. This ensures we don't accidentally fetch a massive amount of data if the datastore is large, sticking exactly to the requirement.\n\nNow, how do we connect these two? The `Manual Trigger` node doesn't really pass any meaningful data downstream, it just initiates the workflow. So, I'll connect its main output to the main input of the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node. This means as soon as the manual trigger fires, the Customer Datastore node will start executing and fetch the data.\n\nAfter fetching the people data, the prompt specifies, \"followed by a 'Set' node to add `objectValue.prop1` (number 123) and `objectValue.prop2` (string 'someText') using dot notation.\" This is clearly a data manipulation step, and the `Set` node is perfect for this. It allows me to add, remove, or modify fields on incoming items.\n\nSo, I'll add a `Set` node. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and `typeVersion` will be `1`. I'll just call it \"Set\" for simplicity.\n\nThe key configuration for this `Set` node is how it adds the new properties. The prompt explicitly says \"using dot notation\" and specifies the paths: `objectValue.prop1` and `objectValue.prop2`.\n\nTo achieve this, first, I need to make sure the `dotNotation` option within the `options` parameter is set to `true`. This is crucial; without it, the node would try to create a top-level field literally named \"objectValue.prop1\" instead of nested objects.\n\nThen, for the actual values:\n- For `objectValue.prop1`, it's a number `123`. So, I'll add an entry under the `values.number` array. The `name` will be `objectValue.prop1` and the `value` will be `123`.\n- For `objectValue.prop2`, it's a string `'someText'`. I'll add an entry under the `values.string` array. The `name` will be `objectValue.prop2` and the `value` will be `someText`.\n\nFinally, the connection. The `Set` node needs to receive the data from the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node to apply these new properties to each item. So, I'll connect the main output of the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node to the main input of the `Set` node. This way, each person record fetched will flow into the Set node, and the new properties will be added to each of those records.\n\nThat should cover all the requirements for this workflow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, uses the Clearbit node to look up a person by their email address.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Look up a person using their email in Clearbit\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"email\": \"\", \"resource\": \"person\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Clearbit\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.clearbit\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Clearbit\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so the goal here is pretty clear: we need to create an n8n workflow that starts when someone manually triggers it, and then it uses Clearbit to find information about a person based on their email address.\n\nLet's think about how to build this from the ground up.\n\nFirst, any workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt specifically says \"when manually triggered.\" So, the very first node we'll need is something that allows for a manual start. Looking at the n8n nodes, the `Manual Trigger` node is perfect for this. It's designed exactly for scenarios where a user clicks a button in the n8n interface to kick off the workflow. So, I'll add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and it's `typeVersion: 1`. Its name, \"On clicking 'execute'\", is very descriptive of its function. For this node, there aren't really any complex parameters needed; it just acts as the \"start\" button.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step is to actually *do* something. The prompt states we need to \"use the Clearbit node to look up a person by their email address.\" This immediately tells me the next node must be the `Clearbit` node. This is a dedicated integration node for the Clearbit API, which simplifies interacting with their service. So, the next node I'll connect will be of `type: n8n-nodes-base.clearbit` and its `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how do we configure this `Clearbit` node? The core requirement is to \"look up a person by their email address.\"\nLooking at the Clearbit node's parameters, I see a few important ones:\n* `resource`: Clearbit can look up both people and companies. Since the prompt specifies \"person,\" I'll set this parameter to `\"person\"`. This ensures the node calls the correct Clearbit API endpoint for person data.\n* `email`: This is the crucial input. The workflow needs to know *which* email address to look up. In the provided JSON, this field is empty (`\"email\": \"\"`). This indicates that when the workflow is actually used, a specific email address would need to be provided here. Perhaps it would come from a previous node, or maybe it's just a placeholder where the user would manually enter an email before executing the workflow. For now, it's just set to be ready for an email.\n* `additionalFields`: This object is empty (`\"additionalFields\": {}`), which means we're not asking for any extra specific data beyond what's returned by default for a person lookup. This keeps the initial query simple.\n* `credentials`: The Clearbit node will, of course, need API credentials to connect to the Clearbit service. The JSON shows `{\"clearbitApi\": \"\"}`. This means a Clearbit API key would be configured here in n8n's credentials manager and then selected for this node. I don't need to specify what that key is, just that it's a necessary part of the setup for the node to function correctly.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The `Manual Trigger` node needs to tell the `Clearbit` node to run. In n8n, this is done via connections. We'll connect the \"main\" output of the `Manual Trigger` node to the \"main\" input of the `Clearbit` node. The `connections` section in the JSON reflects this: `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Clearbit\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This ensures that when the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node fires, it passes control directly to the \"Clearbit\" node, allowing it to execute its lookup operation.\n\nSo, the flow is quite straightforward: trigger starts, then Clearbit performs the lookup. That seems to cover all the requirements for this simple workflow." } { "prompt": "Here are a couple of options:\n\n* \"Create a workflow that starts with a manual trigger node.

Looking at the requirements, it's pretty clear it needs to start with a manual trigger. That's the most straightforward way to initiate a workflow when someone wants to run it on demand. So, the very first node I'll put down is a `manualTrigger` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because, as its name suggests, it simply waits for a user to click a button, making it a great starting point for workflows that aren't driven by external events or schedules. For this particular node, there aren't any special parameters to configure; it simply serves as the \"start\" button for the workflow.\n\nNow, what's supposed to happen after we manually trigger it? The goal is to generate 100 items of random data using a seed of 0. When I think about generating dummy data or testing data within n8n, the `DebugHelper` node immediately comes to mind. It's incredibly versatile for debugging and, crucially, for creating test data. So, the next logical step is to add a `DebugHelper` node. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper` with `typeVersion` `1`.\n\nOnce I've got the `DebugHelper` node on the canvas, I need to connect it to my `manualTrigger`. The `manualTrigger` will pass control \u2013 essentially, a signal that the workflow has started \u2013 to the `DebugHelper`. I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the `manualTrigger` to the `main` input of the `DebugHelper`. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, the `DebugHelper` node gets executed.\n\nNow for the `DebugHelper` node's configuration. This is where the core logic for generating the random data comes in. I need to set its parameters to match the requirements.\n* First, I need to tell it what kind of helper function I want it to perform. For generating random data, the `category` parameter needs to be set to `randomData`. This tells the `DebugHelper` node that its job is to create synthetic data.\n* Next, the prompt specifies that it needs to generate \"100 items.\" So, I'll set the `randomDataCount` parameter to `100`. This directly controls how many items the node will output.\n* Finally, and importantly, it specifies \"using a seed of 0.\" The `randomDataSeed` parameter is exactly what I need for this. Setting it to `0` ensures that every time this workflow runs with this configuration, the generated \"random\" data will be the same, which is incredibly useful for reproducible testing.\n\nAnd that's it. The `manualTrigger` starts the process, and the `DebugHelper` node, configured to produce 100 items of consistent random data using the specified seed, handles the data generation. It's a clean, simple flow that directly addresses the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that responds to a webhook at `\/onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/CreateGoogleSheetTemplateForLeadGeneration`.

The goal is pretty clear: we need to set up an endpoint that, when hit, fetches content from a specific Google Doc and then sends that content right back as the response.\n\nSo, the very first thing we need is something to *listen* for an incoming request. That immediately brings to mind a Webhook node. It's the perfect starting point for any workflow that needs to be triggered by an external call.\n\nI'll add a **Webhook** node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 2`. This node will act as our listener. For its configuration, the prompt specified a very particular path: `\/onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/CreateGoogleSheetTemplateForLeadGeneration`. So, I'll set its `path` parameter to exactly that. This ensures that only requests to this precise URL will trigger our workflow. I also see that `responseMode` is set to `responseNode`, which means we'll handle the actual sending of the response in a later node, giving us more control, which is exactly what we want since we need to fetch data first.\n\nOnce the webhook triggers, the next logical step is to get the content from the Google Doc. For this, we'll need an integration with Google Docs. n8n has a dedicated node for that, which is fantastic.\n\nI'll connect the output of the Webhook node to a new **Google Docs** node. This would be `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion: 2`. This node is designed specifically for interacting with Google Docs, making it the most suitable choice here. I need to make sure its `operation` parameter is set to `get`, because we're looking to *retrieve* content, not create or update anything. And, of course, a `documentURL` parameter will be configured with the specific URL of the Google Doc we need to access. This is where the workflow will know which document to pull data from. Naturally, for this node to work, it will require appropriate Google Docs credentials to be set up, allowing it to authenticate and access the document. If I were building this live, I'd pause here to ensure those credentials were correctly configured for the Google Docs account.\n\nNow we have the data from the Google Doc. The final step is to send this data back as the response to the initial webhook call. This means we need a node specifically for responding to webhooks.\n\nSo, I'll connect the output of the Google Docs node to a **Respond to Webhook** node. This is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion: 1.1`. Its purpose is explicitly to send a response back to the webhook that triggered the workflow. For its configuration, the prompt asks for the *text content* of the document. So, I'll set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`. And critically, for the `responseBody`, I'll use an expression. The Google Docs node, when configured with the 'get' operation, typically outputs the document's content under a property, often named something like `content`. So, I'd set the `responseBody` to an expression that accesses that data, for example, `={{ $json.content }}`. This ensures that whatever text was retrieved by the Google Docs node is directly sent back as the body of the webhook's response. And that really wraps up the entire flow, from receiving the request to sending back the requested content." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow where a 'Manual Trigger' node, named 'When clicking \"Test workflow\"', connects to a 'DebugHelper' node.

I'd drag out a `Manual Trigger` node, which in n8n is identified as `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. The `typeVersion` for this node would typically be `1` for the most common version. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to allow a user to manually start the workflow, which aligns perfectly with \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\". I wouldn't need to configure any special parameters for it; a basic manual trigger works right out of the box, so its `parameters` object would remain empty, just `{}`.

I'd place it to the right of my `Manual Trigger` node, perhaps at `[1000, 500]`, to maintain a logical flow from left to right.\n\nNow, for the configuration of this `DebugHelper` node. The prompt is very specific: \"generate 100 items of 'randomData' with a seed of 0.\"\nLooking at the `DebugHelper` node's capabilities, I know it has a `category` parameter that allows me to select what kind of data it should generate. For generating random data, the `category` would be set to `'randomData'`.\nThen, to control the *amount* of data, there's typically a parameter like `randomDataCount`. The prompt specifies \"100 items,\" so I'd set `randomDataCount` to `100`.\nFinally, to ensure the 'random' data is reproducible (which is crucial for testing and debugging, hence the 'DebugHelper' name), there's usually a `randomDataSeed` parameter. The prompt specifies \"a seed of 0,\" so I would set `randomDataSeed` to `'0'`. It's important to use the string '0' as specified in the JSON, rather than a numeric 0, as some n8n parameters expect string representations even for numbers. So, the `parameters` for this node would be `{\"category\": \"randomData\", \"randomDataSeed\": \"0\", \"randomDataCount\": 100}`.\n\nThe last piece of the puzzle is connecting these two nodes. The prompt says the `Manual Trigger` \"connects to\" the `DebugHelper`. This means the output of the trigger node should feed into the input of the debug helper node. In n8n, the primary output of a trigger node (like `Manual Trigger`) is usually named `main`, and the primary input of a processing node (like `DebugHelper`) is also typically `main`. So, I'd draw a connection from the `main` output of \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" to the `main` input of \"DebugHelper.\" This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, it sends a single item (or an empty item, depending on the trigger) to the `DebugHelper`, signaling it to execute its configured logic \u2013 in this case, generating the random data. The connection would look like `{\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This sets up a straightforward, linear flow: trigger, then generate data. Seems like a complete and correct interpretation of the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow for Gotify that first sends a message with dynamic content and title using the current date, then retrieves all messages (limited to one), and finally deletes the message that was just sent.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Gotify:Message:create getAll delete\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Start\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.start\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"message\": \"=Message content {{Date.now()}}\", \"additionalFields\": {\"title\": \"=Title{{Date.now()}}\"}}, \"name\": \"Gotify\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gotify\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAll\", \"limit\": 1}, \"name\": \"Gotify1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gotify\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"delete\", \"messageId\": \"={{$node[\\\"Gotify\\\"].json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\"}, \"name\": \"Gotify2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gotify\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [800, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Gotify\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gotify1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Gotify1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gotify2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Start\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gotify\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants a sequence of actions with Gotify: first send a message, then retrieve messages (specifically limited to one), and finally delete the message that was just sent. This implies a clear linear flow where the output of one step informs the next.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point. So, I'll begin by adding a **Start** node. This is a fundamental node, `n8n-nodes-base.start` with `typeVersion: 1`. It doesn't do much on its own other than kicking off the workflow, which is exactly what we need. It's the entry point, the trigger, if you will.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"first sends a message with dynamic content and title\". This immediately tells me I need a Gotify node configured to send messages. So, I'll connect a **Gotify** node (`n8n-nodes-base.gotify`, `typeVersion: 1`) directly after the Start node. For this node, the operation will be \"Send Message\" (which is the default or implied operation when you just provide a message). The user wants dynamic content and title using the current date. This means I'll need to use expressions. For the `message` field, I'll set it to `=Message content {{Date.now()}}`. And for the title, within the `additionalFields` section, I'll set `title` to `=Title{{Date.now()}}`. This `Date.now()` function will give us a unique timestamp, making the content and title dynamic as requested. Of course, this Gotify node will need credentials configured to connect to a Gotify instance; those would be provided in a separate credential setup.\n\nOkay, so we've sent the message. The next step in the prompt is to \"then retrieves all messages (limited to one)\". This means another Gotify node, connected directly from the first one. Let's call this one \"Gotify1\" to distinguish it. This will also be an `n8n-nodes-base.gotify` node, `typeVersion: 1`. For this operation, I'll set `operation` to \"getAll\". The prompt specifically mentions \"limited to one\", so I'll set the `limit` parameter to `1`. This is important because we just want to confirm something was sent or get a recent message, not flood our workflow with all historical messages. This node will also use the same Gotify API credentials. The connection will be a standard 'main' connection from the output of our first Gotify node to the input of this Gotify1 node.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"and finally deletes the message that was just sent\". This is the trickiest part because we need to delete *that specific message*. The key here is that the first Gotify node, which sent the message, will output the `id` of the message it just created. We need to capture that `id` and pass it to the delete operation. So, I'll add a third Gotify node, let's call it \"Gotify2\", connected from \"Gotify1\". Again, `n8n-nodes-base.gotify`, `typeVersion: 1`. For this one, the `operation` will be \"delete\". Now, for the `messageId` parameter, this is where the dynamic data comes in. I'll use an expression to reference the output of the *first* Gotify node. It will look something like `={{$node[\"Gotify\"].json[\"id\"]}}`. This expression tells n8n: \"Go to the node named 'Gotify' (our first one), get its JSON output, and from that output, take the value of the 'id' field.\" This ensures we are deleting the exact message we just created in the first step, fulfilling the user's requirement. And, of course, this node will also utilize the same Gotify API credentials. The connection from Gotify1 to Gotify2 will be a 'main' connection, passing the output of the \"get all\" operation to the \"delete\" operation, even though the delete operation specifically uses data from the *first* node. The linear flow ensures the first message has been sent and its ID is available when this final step executes." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a trigger and then sets a field named `response` to the value \"Weather is sunny\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get Weather\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [560, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"Weather is sunny\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, 340]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow from the ground up, just as the request describes.\n\nThe user wants a workflow that \"starts with a trigger and then sets a field named `response` to the value 'Weather is sunny'\". This gives us two clear steps: a starting point and a data manipulation step.\n\nFirst, every n8n workflow needs a way to be initiated. The prompt specifically mentions \"starts with a trigger.\" n8n offers many different trigger nodes, like webhooks, schedules, or even manual execution. Looking at the provided JSON, the chosen trigger node is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` with `typeVersion` 1. This is a very versatile trigger. It can be manually activated within the editor, called via an API, or even triggered by another workflow. For a general \"starts with a trigger\" requirement, this is an excellent choice as it doesn't tie us to a specific external event and allows for easy testing. So, my first step is to drag and drop an \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node onto the canvas. I'll name it \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" as per the JSON. Its `parameters` are empty, meaning it's configured with its default settings, which is perfectly fine for simply initiating the workflow without any specific input data or conditions needed at the start.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next part of the requirement is to \"set a field named `response` to the value 'Weather is sunny'.\" This clearly indicates a need to modify or create data within the workflow's item. For this purpose, n8n has a dedicated node, typically named \"Set\" or \"Edit Fields\" in the UI. Checking the JSON, the second node is indeed named \"Edit Fields\" and its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion` 3.4. This \"Set\" node is precisely what we need because it allows us to define new fields or overwrite existing ones with static values, expressions, or data from previous nodes.\n\nSo, I'll connect the output of my \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node to the input of this new \"Edit Fields\" node. The standard `main` output of the trigger node should connect to the `main` input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This ensures that any data (even if it's just an empty item generated by the trigger) flows correctly into the node responsible for manipulating the fields.\n\nNow, let's configure the \"Edit Fields\" node. The prompt dictates the exact field name and value. Within the \"Edit Fields\" node's parameters, there's an `assignments` array. This is where we define the fields we want to set. I'll add a new assignment.\n* For the `name` of the field, I'll input `response`, exactly as requested.\n* For the `value`, I'll enter `\"Weather is sunny\"`, again, precisely what the user asked for.\n* The `type` for this value should be `string`, as it's a piece of text. The JSON confirms this with `\"type\": \"string\"`.\n\nThe `options` parameter for this node is empty, which means we're not using advanced options like keeping only specified fields or merging data in a complex way. For this simple task of just adding a new field, the default behavior of simply adding the field to the incoming item is ideal.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow now starts, creates an item, and then modifies that item to include the `response` field with the specified weather value. It's a complete, simple workflow that fulfills all the prompt's requirements." } { "prompt": "Create a manually triggered n8n workflow that uses a Postgres node to execute `SELECT * from sometable;` with 'postgres-creds'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"query\": \"SELECT * from sometable;\", \"operation\": \"executeQuery\"}, \"name\": \"Postgres\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.postgres\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Postgres\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start building this n8n workflow from the ground up, keeping the user's request in mind: a manually triggered workflow that queries a Postgres database.\n\nFirst things first, the user wants a \"manually triggered\" workflow. This immediately tells me what my starting point needs to be. I need a node that allows someone to explicitly click a button to initiate the workflow. Looking at the available nodes, the most fitting one for this purpose is a trigger node specifically designed for manual execution.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding the `On clicking 'execute'` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and based on the provided JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because, as its name suggests, it waits for a user to manually trigger it within the n8n interface. For a simple manual trigger, there aren't typically many parameters to configure, and indeed, the JSON shows an empty `parameters` object, which is exactly what I'd expect here. It's essentially just a \"start\" button for the workflow.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next logical step, according to the user's prompt, is to \"use a Postgres node to execute `SELECT * from sometable;`\". This clearly indicates the next node I need to add. I'll need a node that can connect to a PostgreSQL database and execute SQL queries.\n\nSo, I'd then add the `Postgres` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.postgres`, and again, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed for interacting with PostgreSQL databases, so it's the perfect choice.\n\nNow, let's think about configuring this `Postgres` node. The prompt specifies two key things: \"execute `SELECT * from sometable;`\" and \"with 'postgres-creds'\".\n\nFor the query part, within the Postgres node's parameters, I'd need to select the correct operation. Since we're executing a custom SQL query, the `operation` should be set to `executeQuery`. This operation allows me to provide any valid SQL statement. Then, for the `query` itself, I'd directly input `SELECT * from sometable;`, exactly as provided in the user's request. This tells the Postgres node precisely what data to retrieve from the specified table.\n\nThe other crucial piece of information for the Postgres node is how to connect to the database. The prompt specifies \"with 'postgres-creds'\". This means I'll need to link the node to a pre-configured set of credentials. In n8n, these credentials\u2014which would typically contain sensitive information like the database host, port, database name, username, and password\u2014are stored securely and referenced by a name. So, in the `credentials` field of the Postgres node, I'd specify `postgres-creds` for the `postgres` credential type. This ensures that when the workflow runs, the Postgres node knows exactly how to authenticate and connect to the correct database instance.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The manual trigger needs to flow directly into the Postgres node so that when the workflow is manually started, the Postgres query is executed. So, I'd connect the `main` output of the `On clicking 'execute'` node to the `main` input of the `Postgres` node. This creates a direct sequence: trigger the workflow, then immediately run the database query. The data flow here is straightforward; the manual trigger doesn't pass any specific data payload to the Postgres node; it simply signals it to execute. The Postgres node will then perform its configured operation, independent of any input data from the trigger, and output the results of the query." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, followed by a 'Set' node, which then connects to another 'Set' node named 'Set1'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"ff739753-9d6e-46a7-94d3-25bd03dd4973\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning out this n8n workflow from scratch, thinking about each piece as we go.\n\nThe first thing I notice from the prompt is that the workflow needs to be \"inactive.\" That's a crucial top-level setting for the entire workflow. So, when I create this, I'll make sure its `active` flag is set to `false`. This means it won't automatically run on a schedule or react to external events until it's manually activated.\n\nNow, for the actual sequence of operations, the prompt says it \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me the very first node I need to add. I'll choose the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. This node type, with a `typeVersion` of `1`, is perfect because it allows the workflow to be executed directly from the n8n user interface, which is exactly what a \"manual trigger\" implies. It's a simple start node that initiates the workflow when someone clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button. For its parameters, a basic manual trigger node typically doesn't need much configuration, and looking at the provided JSON, its `parameters` object is indeed empty, which makes sense; it just provides a single, empty item to start the flow. I'll give it the name \"On clicking 'execute'\", as specified in the JSON, which is a very clear default name for this type of trigger.\n\nNext up, the prompt states that the manual trigger is \"followed by a 'Set' node.\" So, my immediate thought is to connect the output of my `manualTrigger` node to a `Set` node. I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, with a `typeVersion` of `1`. The `Set` node is incredibly versatile; it allows you to add, remove, or modify data fields on items as they pass through the workflow. In this specific case, looking at the JSON, its `parameters` for `options` are empty. This means this particular `Set` node isn't actually modifying any data; it's effectively a pass-through at this stage. It might be there as a placeholder for future data manipulation, or simply to create a specific sequence. I'll name this node \"Set\" as per the prompt. To connect it, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of my \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the `main` input of this new \"Set\" node. This ensures the data (even if just a single empty item from the trigger) flows sequentially to this `Set` node.\n\nFinally, the prompt says this first 'Set' node \"then connects to another 'Set' node named 'Set1'.\" This means I'll need a third node, another `Set` node. So, I'll add another `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, also with `typeVersion` `1`. This node's purpose would typically be the same as the previous `Set` node \u2013 manipulating data. And just like the previous one, the JSON shows its `parameters` for `options` are empty, so it's also acting as a pass-through. I'll make sure to name this specific instance \"Set1\", exactly as requested. To complete the flow, I'll connect the `main` output of my first \"Set\" node to the `main` input of this new \"Set1\" node. This establishes the final sequential link in the workflow.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow now has its manual trigger, which feeds into a 'Set' node, which then feeds into a 'Set1' node, all connected sequentially with `main` connections, and the entire workflow is set to be inactive from the start. The horizontal positioning suggested by the JSON coordinates also makes intuitive sense for a linear flow like this." } { "prompt": "Create an Onfleet task whenever a specific file in Google Drive is updated, polling for changes every minute. The workflow should require a Google Drive file ID for the trigger.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Create an Onfleet task when a file in Google Drive is updated\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"pollTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"mode\": \"everyMinute\"}]}, \"triggerOn\": \"specificFile\", \"fileToWatch\": \"<some_id>\"}, \"name\": \"Google Drive Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDriveTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"create\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Onfleet\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.onfleet\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Google Drive Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Onfleet\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break this down as if I'm building it from scratch, thinking through each step.\n\nOkay, so the goal here is pretty clear: whenever a specific file in Google Drive gets updated, we need to automatically create a task in Onfleet. And it's important that we're polling Google Drive for these changes every minute, specifically looking at a single file identified by its ID.\n\nMy first thought is always, \"How does this workflow start? What's the trigger?\" The prompt explicitly says \"whenever a specific file in Google Drive is updated.\" That immediately tells me I need a Google Drive trigger. So, I'd go ahead and add a **Google Drive Trigger** node.\n\nLooking at the JSON, I see it uses `type: n8n-nodes-base.googleDriveTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is exactly what I'd expect. This node is purpose-built to listen for events from Google Drive. The `typeVersion` just tells me which particular iteration of the node's internal logic and parameters I'm working with. Different versions can sometimes have slightly different configurations or capabilities, but for now, this version seems to fit the bill.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Google Drive Trigger node to meet the requirements?\nThe prompt states \"polling for changes every minute.\" So, I'd look for a polling setting. In the `parameters` of the `Google Drive Trigger` node, I see `pollTimes: {item: [{mode: \"everyMinute\"}]}`. This is perfect. It configures the workflow to wake up every 60 seconds and check Google Drive for any updates to the file we're watching. This ensures we react quickly to changes without overwhelming the system.\n\nNext, it says \"a specific file\" and \"require a Google Drive file ID for the trigger.\" This is crucial. I don't want to trigger on *any* Google Drive change, just updates to one particular file. So, I'd configure the trigger to watch a specific file rather than, say, an entire folder or all new files. The JSON shows `triggerOn: \"specificFile\"`. This is exactly the setting I'd choose. And then, for *which* specific file, it has `fileToWatch: \"<some_id>\"`. Here, in a live workflow, I would replace `<some_id>` with the actual Google Drive file ID that needs to be monitored. This makes the trigger highly targeted.\n\nSo, the Google Drive Trigger is all set up. What happens *after* a file update is detected? The prompt says \"Create an Onfleet task.\" This means the next step in our workflow needs to interact with Onfleet.\n\nI'd then add an **Onfleet** node. The JSON confirms this, showing `type: n8n-nodes-base.onfleet` and `typeVersion: 1`. Again, `typeVersion: 1` just indicates the node's specific version. This node provides the necessary actions to work with the Onfleet API, such as creating tasks, managing drivers, etc.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? When the Google Drive Trigger fires, its output (which includes details about the updated file) needs to be passed to the Onfleet node so that the Onfleet task can be created. Looking at the `connections` in the JSON, it shows `Google Drive Trigger`'s `main` output going to the `Onfleet` node's `main` input. This is the standard way to chain nodes together in n8n, ensuring that the data from the trigger flows seamlessly to the next action node.\n\nFinally, I need to configure the Onfleet node. The user prompt simply says \"Create an Onfleet task.\" In the `parameters` for the `Onfleet` node, I see `operation: \"create\"`. This is precisely the operation we need to perform: creating a new task. There's also `additionalFields: {}`. This indicates that for this particular workflow, we aren't specifying any extra fields for the Onfleet task, like a specific driver, destination, or time window, beyond what might be default or inferred from other n8n expressions. If the prompt had asked for more specific task details, I would have explored populating these `additionalFields` or other dedicated Onfleet task parameters within the node. But for \"Create an Onfleet task,\" this configuration is sufficient.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The Google Drive Trigger monitors the specified file every minute, and when it detects an update, it triggers the Onfleet node to create a new task. It's a clean, two-node workflow that directly addresses all parts of the prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object for an inactive \"Fin Calls Reports\" configuration, setting `createdAt` and `updatedAt` to `2025-03-06T09:37:12.268Z`, `id` to `u3Y8NPVdzogwNo5s`, and `versionId` to `12ebf7f5-1254-486f-b5f1-b25795bf0ef4`.

The prompt specifies a name: \"Fin Calls Reports\". So, the very first property I'd set is the workflow's `name` to \"Fin Calls Reports\". This is how it will appear in the n8n interface, making it easily identifiable.\n\nNext, I see that the workflow needs to be `active: false`. This is a crucial initial state. It means that even once I save it, this workflow won't automatically run or be triggered. It's like having a draft workflow that's not yet deployed for execution. This is a deliberate choice, perhaps because it's still under development or awaiting approval.\n\nThe prompt provides specific timestamps for `createdAt` and `updatedAt`: `2025-03-06T09:37:12.268Z`. While n8n usually populates these automatically upon creation and modification, if I were creating this programmatically or importing it, I'd ensure these specific values are set. They represent when this particular configuration of the workflow was initially established and last modified.\n\nSimilarly, an `id` and `versionId` are provided. The `id` (`u3Y8NPVdzogwNo5s`) is the workflow's unique identifier within the n8n system, crucial for referencing it. The `versionId` (`12ebf7f5-1254-486f-b5f1-b25795bf0ef4`) is also a unique identifier, likely used for tracking specific revisions or deployments of the workflow's definition. These are also typically system-generated, but for this exercise, I'll ensure they're exactly as specified.\n\nNow, let's think about the structure within the workflow. The prompt emphasizes that \"all other array\/object fields are empty or null.\" Looking at the provided JSON, this specifically points to `nodes` and `connections`.\n\nThe `nodes` array is empty. This is extremely important. It tells me that this workflow, despite having a name and configuration, doesn't actually *do* anything yet. There are no automation steps defined, no triggers, no data processing, no outputs. It's essentially an empty canvas. So, I wouldn't add any specific node types like an 'HTTP Request' (node type: `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`, typeVersion: `3`) or a 'Set' node (node type: `n8n-nodes-base.set`, typeVersion: `2`). Since there are no nodes, I also don't need to consider different `typeVersion`s for any specific node because no nodes exist! This is purely a metadata definition.\n\nFollowing from `nodes` being empty, the `connections` object is also empty. If there are no nodes, there's nothing to connect! This makes perfect logical sense.\n\nMoving on to the `settings` object. The prompt explicitly states `settings.executionOrder` should be `v1`. This is a workflow-level setting that dictates how nodes within the workflow would execute if there were any. `v1` typically signifies the standard sequential execution from a trigger node through subsequent nodes. This is the default and most common execution model. If it were a more advanced or parallel setup, we might see a different version, but `v1` is standard.\n\nThen there's `triggerCount: 0`. This aligns perfectly with the `active: false` status. An inactive workflow that hasn't been triggered manually or by an external event would naturally have a trigger count of zero. It simply means it hasn't run yet.\n\nFinally, other fields like `staticData`, `meta`, `pinData`, and `tags` are either `null` or empty arrays\/objects.\n* `staticData: null`: This field is often used to store persistent data that needs to survive across workflow executions, like a counter or a last-processed ID. `null` means no such persistent data is being stored.\n* `meta: null`: This is a general-purpose field for attaching additional metadata to the workflow. `null` means no custom metadata has been added.\n* `pinData: {}`: This is typically related to UI positioning or visual elements within the n8n editor. An empty object means no specific pinning data is applied.\n* `tags: []`: This is an array for categorizing workflows with tags for easier organization. An empty array means no tags have been assigned yet.\n\nSo, in essence, I'm setting up a foundational workflow object: giving it a name, defining its unique identifiers, setting its creation\/update timestamps, and making sure it's inactive and has no actual automation logic defined within it yet. It's a complete, valid n8n workflow definition, but it's a blank slate ready for nodes and connections to be added later." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow starting with a Schedule Trigger node named 'A' connected to a Set node named 'B' that includes one empty string assignment.

This is my logical first step. A Schedule Trigger is essential for any workflow that needs to run automatically at specific times or intervals, which is a common requirement.\n\n* **Node Type:** I'll go for `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`. This is the dedicated node for initiating workflows based on a schedule.\n* **Type Version:** The JSON specifies `typeVersion: 1.2`. This is a stable and standard version for the Schedule Trigger. Different versions might have minor UI changes or additional scheduling options, but for a basic trigger, 1.2 works perfectly.\n* **Positioning:** I'd place it at `[0, 0]` on the canvas. This is usually my starting point for any workflow, providing a clean origin.\n* **Name:** The prompt asks for it to be named 'A', so I'll set its `name` property to \"A\".\n* **Configuration:** For the `parameters`, the JSON shows an empty `rule.interval` object: `{}`. This means it's set up to trigger, likely using n8n's default interval (which can vary, but typically hourly or once at activation if not explicitly configured). Since the prompt didn't specify a particular schedule, this generic setup is sufficient to fulfill the requirement of simply having a Schedule Trigger in place. It will fire and initiate the workflow.\n\n**Connecting to the First Set Node: Node 'B'**\n\nNext, the prompt says \"connected to a Set node named 'B' that includes one empty string assignment.\" So, the flow from 'A' needs to go directly into 'B'.\n\n* **Connection:** I'll connect the `main` output of Node 'A' to the `main` input of Node 'B'. This is the standard way to pass the execution flow and any data generated by the Schedule Trigger (though typically minimal for this node) to the next processing step.\n\n* **Node Type:** For assigning data, the `n8n-nodes-base.set` node is ideal. It's specifically designed to define or modify data items that flow through the workflow.\n* **Type Version:** The JSON indicates `typeVersion: 3.4`. This is a common and robust version for the Set node, supporting various ways to assign values.\n* **Positioning:** To maintain the horizontal layout, I need to place 'B' to the right of 'A'. A position like `[220, 0]` works well. The `220` provides enough visual spacing from `[0, 0]` while keeping it aligned on the same horizontal plane (Y-axis `0`).\n* **Name:** As requested, its `name` will be \"B\".\n* **Configuration:** The critical part here is the \"empty string assignment\". Looking at the JSON, under `parameters.assignments.assignments`, there's an entry with `name: \"\"` and `value: \"\"`, and `type: \"string\"`. This is interesting because it's creating a property with an empty name. Typically, one might assign an empty string to a *named* property, like `name: \"myString\", value: \"\"`. However, the JSON explicitly shows an empty `name`. This means the Set node will add a new property to the incoming data, where the property's name itself is an empty string, and its value is also an empty string. This directly satisfies the \"one empty string assignment\" based on the provided JSON structure. The `id` is just a unique identifier for that specific assignment within the node.\n\n**Connecting to the Second Set Node: Node 'C'**\n\nFinally, the prompt asks to \"connect 'B' to a generic Set node named 'C'\". This continues the linear flow.\n\n* **Connection:** Similar to the previous step, I'll connect the `main` output of Node 'B' to the `main` input of Node 'C'. This ensures that the data, now including the new (empty-named, empty-valued) property from Node 'B', is passed along to the next stage of the workflow.\n\n* **Node Type:** Again, a `n8n-nodes-base.set` node is used. Even though it's \"generic\" and not actively modifying data in this configuration, a Set node is a versatile choice for passing data through or as a placeholder for potential future data manipulation.\n* **Type Version:** It's `typeVersion: 3.4`, consistent with Node 'B'.\n* **Positioning:** To keep everything horizontal, I'd place Node 'C' to the right of Node 'B'. A position like `[440, 0]` achieves this perfectly, maintaining the visual spacing and horizontal alignment.\n* **Name:** Its `name` will be \"C\".\n* **Configuration:** The term \"generic\" in the prompt implies it won't have specific assignments. The JSON confirms this, as its `parameters` only contain `options: {}` and no `assignments` array. This means Node 'C' will simply receive the data from Node 'B' and pass it through without any further modifications. It acts as a final step or a point where more logic could be added later if needed." } { "prompt": "Create an N8N workflow starting with a 'Manual Trigger' node named 'When clicking \"Test workflow\"', which connects to a 'Switch' node with 3 output branches.

Looking at the provided JSON, that's exactly where we begin.\n\nFirst things first, we need a way to kick off our workflow. For that, the most straightforward and direct approach, especially for testing or when a user explicitly wants to start something, is a Manual Trigger. So, I'd bring in a **Manual Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and this specific one is `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it literally provides a \"Test workflow\" button in the n8n interface, which aligns perfectly with the desired name and the idea of a manual start. I'll name it \"When clicking \"Test workflow\"\", just as requested. This node doesn't really need any complex parameters; its purpose is simply to initiate the workflow and pass along an empty item, ready for the next node to process.\n\nNow, once our workflow is triggered, the prompt says this initial node needs to connect to a 'Switch' node that will have three output branches. So, the very next logical step is to add that **Switch** node. I'll connect the main output of our \"When clicking \"Test workflow\"\" node to the input of this new Switch node. Looking at the JSON, this Switch node has `type: n8n-nodes-base.switch` and `typeVersion: 3`. The Switch node is the ideal choice here because its primary function is to route workflow execution based on conditions. It takes incoming data and, depending on the rules we define, sends that data out through different output branches. This is exactly what's implied by \"3 output branches.\"\n\nFor the configuration of this Switch node, the JSON shows its `parameters` include `rules`. It defines `values` with three entries, which directly corresponds to our three desired output branches. Even though the first rule has some placeholder conditions like `leftValue: \"\"` and `rightValue: \"\"`, the crucial part is that there are three distinct slots, essentially defining three potential paths for our data to take. The `options` for the switch itself are currently empty, meaning we're not applying any global settings like stopping on first match or anything complex, which is fine for now; the branching itself is the key requirement.\n\nThe prompt specifically mentions that \"The third output of the 'Switch' should then connect to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields'\". This is very specific, so I need to make sure I get that connection right. After the Switch node, I'll add the **Set** node. This node has `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.3`. A Set node is commonly used when you want to explicitly add, modify, or remove fields from the data item flowing through the workflow. It's a clean way to manipulate the data payload. I'll name this node \"Edit Fields\" as requested.\n\nFinally, for the connections, I need to ensure the third output of our \"Switch\" node feeds into the input of this \"Edit Fields\" node. The JSON's `connections` section confirms this: `Switch: {\"main\": [null, null, [{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This `null, null` indicates that the first two output branches of the Switch node are not currently connected to anything in this specific workflow definition, but the third branch (`index: 0` for the connection array, corresponding to the third rule in the `rules` array) indeed connects to \"Edit Fields\". The Set node itself doesn't have any specific fields defined in its `parameters` (`options: {}`), which means it's ready to be configured later to add or modify whatever data we need at that point. But the structure and connection are now complete as per the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and connects to a Hunter node to perform an email verification for 'user@example.com', requiring Hunter API credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"email\": \"user@example.com\", \"operation\": \"emailVerifier\"}, \"name\": \"Hunter\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.hunter\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Hunter\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow from scratch, just as if I were sitting down to build it in n8n.\n\nThe user's request is quite clear: a manual trigger, then a Hunter node for email verification. This gives me a good roadmap.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The request specifically asks for a \"manual trigger\". This is perfect for when I want to initiate the workflow myself, perhaps for testing, or if it's a utility workflow I'll run on demand. Looking at the provided JSON, I see a node defined as `\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"`. This is exactly the node I'd pick. It's listed as `typeVersion: 1`, which is standard for most basic n8n nodes. For a manual trigger, there typically aren't any special parameters to set; its purpose is simply to kick off the execution when I click the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n interface. So, I'd just drag this node onto the canvas as my starting point.\n\nNext, after the workflow is manually triggered, the core action needs to happen: email verification using Hunter. So, the very next node will naturally be a Hunter node. Checking the JSON, it's defined as `\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.hunter\"`, also with `typeVersion: 1`. This confirms I'm using the dedicated integration for the Hunter.io service, which is exactly what I need for this task.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Hunter node? The prompt clearly states \"perform an email verification\". When I look at the node's parameters in the JSON, I see `\"operation\": \"emailVerifier\"`. This is the crucial setting. Within the Hunter node's configuration panel, I would select 'Email Verifier' from the list of available operations. This tells the node exactly what kind of task to perform with the Hunter.io API.\n\nAnd what email should it verify? The prompt specifies `'user@example.com'`. Looking at the parameters again, there's an `\"email\": \"user@example.com\"` field. So, I'd directly input the specific email address I want to verify into the 'Email' field of the Hunter node. This hardcodes the email for this particular workflow, which is fine for a fixed verification task like this. If I wanted to verify emails coming from a previous node, I'd use an expression here, but for a direct, single email verification, entering it directly is simple and effective.\n\nFinally, the Hunter node needs to authenticate with the Hunter.io API. The prompt mentions \"requiring Hunter API credentials\". The JSON reflects this with `\"credentials\": {\"hunterApi\": \"hunter api creds\"}`. This means that before I can successfully run this Hunter node, I'll need to have set up an API credential in n8n for Hunter.io. I would typically name it something clear, like \"My Hunter API Key\", and then in the Hunter node's credential setting, I would simply select that pre-configured credential. The node uses that credential behind the scenes to authenticate with Hunter.io. I'd ensure the actual API key is stored securely within n8n's credential manager, not directly in the node's parameters.\n\nOnce both nodes are configured, I need to connect them. The `manualTrigger` node needs to flow into the `Hunter` node. In n8n, this is usually a straightforward 'main' connection. The JSON's `\"connections\"` block confirms this: the `On clicking 'execute'` node (which is the manual trigger) has its `main` output connected to the `Hunter` node's `main` input. This creates a simple, linear flow: when the manual trigger is activated, it simply passes execution control to the Hunter node, which then performs its configured email verification. The manual trigger doesn't pass any data that the Hunter node would typically consume; it's purely about initiating the sequence of operations. The Hunter node uses its own configured parameters and credentials to do its work." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Node versions' containing a 'Manual Trigger' node, a 'Function' node, and three 'Set' nodes: 'Edit Fields (old)' with typeVersion 2, 'Edit Fields (latest)' with typeVersion 3.4, and 'Edit Fields (no typeVersion)' without a specified typeVersion.

The first thing I'd do is give the workflow a name, as specified in the prompt: \"Node versions\". This helps keep things organized in the n8n interface.\n\nNow, let's consider the nodes we need to add. The prompt lists a few, and the provided JSON gives us the exact details, including their `typeVersion` and positions.\n\nI'll begin by adding the `Manual Trigger` node. This node, with the name \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", is typically where a workflow starts if you want to run it manually, perhaps for testing or on-demand execution. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and looking at the JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is generally the base version for this trigger, and for a simple manual trigger, changes in `typeVersion` usually don't affect its core behavior much, as it just initiates the workflow. I'd place it roughly at position [460, 460] on the canvas, which is a fairly central starting point.\n\nNext, I'll add a `Function` node. This node, simply named \"Function\", is quite versatile. It allows you to execute custom JavaScript code within your workflow. You might use it to transform data, implement custom logic, or even make external API calls using custom code if the existing nodes don't quite fit your needs. The JSON specifies its type as `n8n-nodes-base.function` and its `typeVersion` as `1`. Similar to the Manual Trigger, version `1` is the standard for this node. While newer versions might offer additional helper functions or slightly different input\/output structures, the fundamental capability of running custom code remains the same. I'd place it at [960, 460].\n\nNow for the `Set` nodes, which are particularly interesting for this workflow because of their differing `typeVersion` configurations.\n\nI'll add the `Set` node named \"Edit Fields (old)\". The `Set` node is incredibly useful for manipulating data as it flows through the workflow \u2013 you can add new fields, modify existing ones, or even remove fields. This particular `Set` node has a specific `typeVersion` of `2`. This is quite important. If the `Set` node's internal structure or how it handles certain data types changed between version `2` and later versions, explicitly setting `typeVersion` to `2` ensures that this node behaves exactly as it would have in that older version of n8n. This is a powerful feature for maintaining backward compatibility. I'd position this one at [800, 460].\n\nThen, I'll add the `Set` node named \"Edit Fields (no typeVersion)\". Again, it's an `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, serving the same purpose of data manipulation. What's notable here is that the JSON does *not* specify a `typeVersion` for it. When a `typeVersion` isn't explicitly set in the workflow JSON, n8n defaults to using the *latest* available `typeVersion` for that node type on the n8n instance where the workflow is running. This is typically how new nodes are added directly in the editor, automatically inheriting the most current behavior. This provides a great contrast to the previous \"old\" version example. Its position is [1120, 460].\n\nFinally, I'll add the last `Set` node, named \"Edit Fields (latest)\". This is also an `n8n-nodes-base.set` node. What makes this one stand out is that its `typeVersion` is explicitly set to `3.4`. This is a very precise version number. It means we are intentionally pinning this node to the behavior and configuration options introduced or solidified in version `3.4` of the `Set` node. Even if n8n releases a `Set` node `typeVersion 4` or `5` in the future, this node will continue to operate under its `3.4` schema, preventing unexpected changes. This explicit pinning is crucial for workflows that need absolute consistency across n8n updates. Its position is [640, 460].\n\nOne crucial aspect of this workflow, as specified in the prompt and confirmed by the empty `connections` object in the JSON, is that all these nodes remain unconnected. There are no wires connecting the `Manual Trigger` to the `Function` or any of the `Set` nodes. This means they are essentially standalone examples, demonstrating different `typeVersion` configurations without any data flowing between them. If they were meant to pass data, I'd be drawing lines from, say, the trigger to the function, and then potentially from the function to one of the set nodes, but for this specific demonstration, unconnected is exactly what's required." } { "prompt": "Create an N8N workflow starting with a **Manual Trigger** node.

The prompt is quite clear: we need a manual trigger and then a debug helper to generate some specific random data.\n\nSo, the very first thing I always consider when building an n8n workflow is how it's going to start. What initiates the whole process? In this case, the prompt explicitly states \"starting with a **Manual Trigger** node.\" That makes my choice easy. I'll definitely add a **Manual Trigger** node first. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to allow a user to manually initiate the workflow, which aligns perfectly with the requirement. There aren't any specific parameters to configure for the Manual Trigger itself; it just sits there waiting for someone to click \"Test workflow\" or execute it. Its default settings, as seen by the empty `parameters` object, are exactly what's needed. It's a simple, straightforward start.\n\nNow that we have our starting point, what's next? The prompt states \"Connect it to a **DebugHelper** node.\" So, the next logical step is to add that **DebugHelper** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper` and the `typeVersion` is also `1`. The DebugHelper node is incredibly useful for testing and inspecting data within a workflow without actually sending it anywhere external. It can generate data, inspect data, or even pause the workflow, making it ideal for the testing scenario described.\n\nNow, let's think about how these two nodes connect. The **Manual Trigger** node, once activated, simply passes an empty item or a single execution item to the next node in the sequence. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the **Manual Trigger** node to the `main` input of the newly added **DebugHelper** node. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, the execution flow seamlessly moves to the DebugHelper node.\n\nFinally, I need to configure the **DebugHelper** node according to the prompt's specifications. The prompt says \"configured to generate **100 random data items** with a **seed of 0**.\" Looking at the JSON, I can see how this is done within the `parameters` of the `DebugHelper` node.\n\nFirst, I need to tell the DebugHelper what kind of operation it should perform. The prompt specifies generating random data, so I'd look for a setting that controls that. The `category` parameter is set to `\"randomData\"`. This is the exact setting I'd use to switch the DebugHelper into its data generation mode. This tells the node, \"Hey, don't just pass through data or inspect it; create some new random data.\"\n\nNext, the prompt requires \"100 random data items.\" For this, there's a parameter called `randomDataCount`, and it's set to `100`. This directly controls how many distinct data items the DebugHelper node will output. It's a very clear mapping from requirement to configuration.\n\nAnd lastly, the prompt specifies \"with a **seed of 0**.\" This is crucial for reproducibility. If you generate random data without a seed, every time you run the workflow, you'll get completely different random values. By setting a `randomDataSeed` to `0`, as specified in the JSON, it ensures that the \"random\" data generated will be the same set of \"random\" data every single time the workflow runs with that seed. This is incredibly helpful for debugging and testing where you want consistent input.\n\nSo, to summarize the DebugHelper's configuration: I've chosen the `randomData` category, specified `100` items, and set the `seed` to `0`. This precisely fulfills all the requirements for the DebugHelper node.\n\nAnd that's it. We have the Manual Trigger starting the workflow, connected directly to the DebugHelper, which is configured to generate the specific random data needed for testing. The workflow is complete as per the instructions." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that is triggered manually and uses the Bitly node to shorten the URL `https:\/\/calendar.usc.edu\/event\/curricular_practical_training_cpt_information_session_8120?utm_campaign=widget&utm_medium=widget&utm_source=USC+Event+Calendar#.Xv0UlpNKhQK`, using the 'test' credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [490, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"longUrl\": \"https:\/\/calendar.usc.edu\/event\/curricular_practical_training_cpt_information_session_8120?utm_campaign=widget&utm_medium=widget&utm_source=USC+Event+Calendar#.Xv0UlpNKhQK\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Bitly\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.bitly\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [830, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Bitly\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants to shorten a specific URL using Bitly, triggered manually, and pointing to some specific credentials. This sounds like a straightforward two-node workflow.\n\nFirst things first, we need a way to kick off the workflow. The prompt explicitly says it should be \"triggered manually.\" So, the most direct and obvious choice for the very first node in our workflow would be a manual trigger. I'd drag out an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. Its `typeVersion` is 1, which is standard for current basic nodes. I'd give it a clear name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so anyone looking at the workflow immediately understands its purpose. It doesn't need any special parameters; its job is simply to generate an item when the workflow is manually run. This will be the starting point, the initial impulse that sets everything else in motion.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next step is the core action: shortening the URL using Bitly. This means we'll need a Bitly node. I'll pull out an `n8n-nodes-base.bitly` node. Again, `typeVersion` 1 is appropriate here. I'll connect its main output from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the main input of this new \"Bitly\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, it passes an empty item (or whatever default item it generates) to the Bitly node, telling it to proceed.\n\nNow, let's configure the Bitly node itself. The primary goal is to shorten a URL. So, within the Bitly node's parameters, I'd look for an \"Operation\" setting and ensure it's set to \"Shorten URL\". That's the core functionality we're after.\n\nNext, we need to tell it *which* URL to shorten. The prompt provides the exact URL: `https:\/\/calendar.usc.edu\/event\/curricular_practical_training_cpt_information_session_8120?utm_campaign=widget&utm_medium=widget&utm_source=USC+Event+Calendar#.Xv0UlpNKhQK`. So, I would take that entire string and paste it directly into the `longUrl` field within the node's parameters. This is crucial; without it, the node wouldn't know what to shorten.\n\nThe prompt also specifies \"using the 'test' credentials.\" This is an important security and configuration aspect. Within the Bitly node's settings, there's a `credentials` section. Here, I would select or specify the credential named \"test\" for the `bitlyApi` field. This tells n8n which pre-configured Bitly API key or access token to use when making the request to the Bitly service. It ensures the operation is authenticated correctly without embedding sensitive information directly into the workflow itself.\n\nFinally, looking at the `additionalFields` parameter, the prompt doesn't ask for any specific customizations like a custom domain, a specific group GUID, or a title for the shortened link. So, I would leave this section empty. The default shortening behavior is all that's required here.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow starts manually, passes control to the Bitly node, which then uses the provided URL and specified credentials to perform the shortening operation. The output of the Bitly node would then contain the newly shortened URL, which could then be used by subsequent nodes if the workflow were more complex, but for this request, this completes the core functionality." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then uses a Set node to add an XML document of library books to a field named 'body'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [420, 220]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fields\": {\"values\": [{\"name\": \"body\", \"stringValue\": \"<?xml version=\\\"1.0\\\" encoding=\\\"UTF-8\\\"?> <library> <book> <title>Introduction to XML<\/title> <author>John Doe<\/author> <publication_year>2020<\/publication_year> <isbn>1234567890<\/isbn> <\/book> <book> <title>Data Science Basics<\/title> <author>Jane Smith<\/author> <publication_year>2019<\/publication_year> <isbn>0987654321<\/isbn> <\/book> <book> <title>Programming in Python<\/title> <author>Bob Johnson<\/author> <publication_year>2021<\/publication_year> <isbn>5432109876<\/isbn> <\/book> <\/library>\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.2, \"position\": [640, 220]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is clear: we need a manual trigger, and then a Set node to inject some XML data.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. Since the requirement specifically states a \"manual trigger,\" the obvious choice is the **Manual Trigger** node. This is perfect because it allows the user to initiate the workflow themselves, which is exactly what \"manual trigger\" implies. Looking at the JSON, it's `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is really straightforward; it doesn't typically require much configuration beyond its existence. It simply acts as the entry gate, creating an initial item to flow into the workflow when activated, usually by clicking the \"Test workflow\" button in the n8n editor or a similar manual execution.\n\nNow that we have our workflow starting, the next step is to get that XML document into a field named 'body'. For adding or modifying data within an item as it passes through the workflow, a **Set** node is the go-to. It's incredibly versatile for defining new fields, overwriting existing ones, or just setting specific values. This perfectly fits the requirement of adding data to a field. The JSON confirms this with the `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, and its `typeVersion` is `3.2`.\n\nLet's think about how to configure this Set node. The goal is to add an XML document to a field named 'body'. So, within the Set node's parameters, I'll need to define a new field. I'd go to the 'Fields' section and add a new value. I'd set the 'Name' of this field to `body`, exactly as requested. For the 'Value', since we're dealing with an XML document, it's going to be a string. I'll make sure the 'Value Type' is set to 'String'. Then, I'd paste the entire XML content directly into the 'String Value' field.\n\nThe XML itself needs to be carefully entered to ensure it's well-formed. It starts with the XML declaration `<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>`, followed by a root element, which in this case is `<library>`. Inside, we'll have multiple `<book>` elements, each containing details like `<title>`, `<author>`, `<publication_year>`, and `<isbn>`. This structure will be exactly what the Set node holds for the `body` field.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The output of the **Manual Trigger** needs to flow directly into the input of the **Set** node. So, from the 'main' output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node, I'll draw a connection to the 'main' input of the \"Edit Fields\" (Set) node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the initial item created by the trigger immediately gets processed by the Set node, where the 'body' field with the XML content is added to it. The connection in the JSON confirms this: `{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}` from the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node.\n\nThat's it. The manual trigger starts things, and the Set node precisely adds the required XML to the specified field. Simple and effective for this task." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow featuring two schedule triggers, 'Trigger A' and 'Trigger B', both connecting to a single 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields'.

The request is pretty clear: two schedule triggers, 'Trigger A' and 'Trigger B', both feeding into a single 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields'. The 'Set' node needs to capture the name of the trigger that fired it. This sounds like a straightforward design, but let's break it down piece by piece.\n\nFirst off, a workflow needs a starting point, and here we're told explicitly that it should be initiated by a schedule. So, my immediate thought is that I'll need two schedule trigger nodes.\n\nI'll start with the first one, let's call it 'Trigger A'. I'd drag and drop a **Schedule Trigger** node onto the canvas. Looking at the JSON, this node has the `type`: `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` and `typeVersion`: `1.2`. This is the standard node for initiating workflows based on a recurring time interval, so it's exactly what we need. I'd then rename it to \"Trigger A\" as specified in the prompt. For its parameters, the JSON shows an empty `rule.interval` array `[{}]`. In a real-world scenario, I'd configure this with a specific interval, like once every hour, or every day at a certain time, depending on when \"Trigger A\" is supposed to run. But for this exercise, leaving it at its default or an empty configuration is fine, it just means it's set up to trigger *somehow* on a schedule.\n\nNext, I need a second trigger, \"Trigger B\", which will also be a schedule-based one. So, I'll add another **Schedule Trigger** node, identical in type and version (`n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`, `typeVersion`: `1.2`). I'd place it slightly below \"Trigger A\" just for visual organization, as the JSON indicates positions `[0, -100]` and `[0, 100]` for the two triggers, placing them vertically apart. I'll name this one \"Trigger B\". Again, its schedule `rule.interval` would be configured for a real use case, but for now, it's just a placeholder.\n\nNow that I have my two entry points, the prompt says both should connect to a *single* 'Set' node. This 'Set' node is where we'll manipulate the data flowing through the workflow. The **Set** node is perfect for this, as its primary purpose is to add new fields to items or modify existing ones.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Set** node to the canvas. The JSON shows its `type`: `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion`: `3.4`. This is a very common and versatile node. I'll name it \"Edit Fields\" as requested.\n\nThe crucial part of this 'Set' node is its configuration. The prompt states it should dynamically set a field `prevNode` to the name of the preceding trigger using the expression `={{ $prevNode.name }}`. So, inside the 'Set' node's parameters, I'd go to the \"Add Field\" section. I'd specify the field `name` as `prevNode`. For the `value`, this is where the dynamic expression comes in. I'd toggle it to an expression field and input `={{ $prevNode.name }}`. This is a brilliant n8n feature! `$prevNode` is a global variable that holds information about the node that directly preceded the current node in the execution path. By accessing `.name`, we're simply retrieving the name of that previous node. This is exactly what's needed to know whether \"Trigger A\" or \"Trigger B\" initiated the workflow execution for that particular item. The `type` for this value would naturally be `string` since node names are text.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these nodes. The prompt says *both* triggers connect to the 'Edit Fields' node. So, I'll draw a connection from the \"main\" output of \"Trigger A\" to the \"main\" input of \"Edit Fields\". Then, I'll do the same for \"Trigger B\", connecting its \"main\" output to the \"main\" input of \"Edit Fields\". This setup ensures that regardless of which trigger fires, the data (or the initial item created by the trigger) flows into the \"Edit Fields\" node, allowing the `$prevNode.name` expression to correctly identify the initiating trigger. The positions specified in the JSON, like `[200, -100]` for \"Edit Fields\" relative to the triggers at `[0, -100]` and `[0, 100]`, indicate it's placed to the right, which makes perfect sense visually for a flow from left to right.\n\nThat completes the workflow as described. It's a clean, functional design for the stated purpose." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow named \"Test workflow 1\" that starts with a manual trigger.

Connect this to a Code node which adds a `myNewField` property with a value of `1` to each item's JSON, and apply the tags 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'.\"\n\nFirst things first, I need to set up the basic workflow properties. The name is specified as \"Test workflow 1\", so I'll make sure that's set at the top level of the workflow definition. The prompt also mentions applying tags: 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'. These are workflow-level tags, so I'll add them to the `tags` array in the main workflow JSON structure. This ensures the workflow is categorized and discoverable by those tags.\n\nNow, let's start building the workflow's functional parts, node by node.\n\nThe prompt explicitly states it \"starts with a manual trigger\". This is straightforward.\nI'll add an **n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger** node. Its `typeVersion` is `1`.\nWhy this node? It's the simplest way to initiate a workflow on demand, perfect for testing or for processes that need to be started by a user click rather than an automated schedule or external event. For this particular prompt, it's the exact requirement. There aren't really any specific parameters to configure for a basic manual trigger; it just provides a starting point when executed.\n\nNext, the prompt says to \"Connect this to a Code node which adds a `myNewField` property with a value of `1` to each item's JSON\".\nSo, from the 'On clicking 'execute'' manual trigger node, I'll draw a connection to a new node.\nThe type of node needed here is clearly a **n8n-nodes-base.code** node. Its `typeVersion` is `1`.\nWhy a Code node? This is the perfect choice when you need to perform custom JavaScript logic on your data. The requirement to add a specific property (`myNewField`) with a fixed value (`1`) to *each item's JSON* is a classic use case for the flexibility of a Code node. While sometimes you might use a Set node for adding properties, for more complex or conditional manipulations across multiple items, the Code node offers full programmatic control.\n\nNow, let's configure the `jsCode` parameter within this Code node. The prompt specifies adding `myNewField` with a value of `1` to each item.\nLooking at the provided code, it does exactly that:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nThis script iterates through all items that come into the node using `$input.all()`. For each `item`, it accesses its `json` property and directly assigns `myNewField` with the value `1`. Finally, `return $input.all();` ensures that all the modified items are passed out of the Code node, ready for any subsequent nodes in the workflow. This is a very common pattern for modifying data in a Code node and is exactly what's needed here.\n\nAs for connections, the `manualTrigger` node's 'main' output should connect to the `Code` node's 'main' input. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, any initial (empty, in this case) items from the trigger are passed to the Code node to be processed and have the new field added. The Code node itself, in this workflow, doesn't connect to anything further, indicating it's the end of the processing chain defined in the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow starting with a \"When chat message received\" trigger.

I'm thinking about what the user wants: \"Create an N8n workflow starting with a 'When chat message received' trigger.

The prompt clearly states it should start with \"When chat message received.\" Looking at the JSON, yes, that's exactly what we have as the initial node.\n\nSo, I'd start by dragging in the `When chat message received` node. Its type is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1.1`. This is perfect because it means the workflow will kick off whenever a chat message is received, which is exactly the user's starting condition. For its configuration, the JSON shows `{\"options\": {}}`, which indicates we're just using the default settings for this trigger; there aren't any specific customizations needed for it at this point, like filtering messages or anything complex. It's a clean, simple starting point.\n\nNow, what's next? The prompt says to connect the trigger to a \"Set\" node named \"Node 1.\" A \"Set\" node is incredibly useful when you want to define or hardcode specific data that your workflow will then use. It's like injecting a predefined piece of information into the workflow's item stream.\n\nSo, I'd grab a `Set` node, drag it onto the canvas, and name it \"Node 1.\" Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is `3.4`. That's a standard `Set` node, which is exactly what we need.\n\nFor configuring \"Node 1,\" the prompt specifies that it should output `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`. To achieve this, I'd set its \"Mode\" parameter to \"Raw\" and then paste that JSON object directly into the \"JSON Output\" field. This ensures the node precisely outputs the data structure and values requested. So, the `parameters` block for \"Node 1\" in the JSON shows `{\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_1\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_2\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}`, which perfectly matches this setup.\n\nNext, I need to connect the `When chat message received` node to \"Node 1.\" This is straightforward: I'd just drag a connection from the main output of the trigger node to the main input of \"Node 1.\" This ensures that when a chat message is received, the workflow proceeds to \"Node 1\" and the data defined within it becomes available for subsequent steps.\n\nFinally, the prompt states to connect \"Node 1\" to \"another 'Set' node named 'Node 2' that outputs `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`.\" This is a very similar step to the previous one, just with different data.\n\nSo, I'd add another `Set` node, name it \"Node 2,\" and again, looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion` `3.4`. Just like \"Node 1,\" it's a standard `Set` node.\n\nFor its configuration, similar to \"Node 1,\" I'd set its \"Mode\" parameter to \"Raw\" and input the specified JSON: `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}` into the \"JSON Output\" field. The JSON confirms this configuration: `{\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_3\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_4\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}`. This second `Set` node will then add its own set of predefined fields to the workflow's data stream, combining it with or potentially overwriting data from previous nodes depending on how it's handled, but in this case, it just defines new fields.\n\nAnd finally, I'd connect \"Node 1\" to \"Node 2.\" This creates a sequential flow: trigger fires, \"Node 1\" defines its data, and then that data (along with any incoming data from the trigger, if it were passed through) moves to \"Node 2,\" where \"Node 2\" adds its own defined data. It's a simple, linear flow of defining data at specific points in the workflow." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that starts manually, then makes an HTTP request to download an image file from `https:\/\/picsum.photos\/200\/300`.

My goal is to set up an n8n workflow that starts manually, grabs an image from a URL, and then pulls out some information from that image.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick off this whole process. The prompt explicitly says the workflow \"starts manually.\" Looking at the available nodes in n8n, the `Manual Trigger` node is the perfect fit for this. It's designed for exactly this purpose: allowing me to execute the workflow whenever I choose, typically by clicking a button in the n8n interface. So, I'll start by adding the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. Its `typeVersion` is 1, which is the current standard. It doesn't require any special parameters for this basic use case, so I'll leave its parameters empty. I'll place this as the very first node, as it's the entry point of our workflow.\n\nNext, the prompt requires me to \"make an HTTP request to download an image file from `https:\/\/picsum.photos\/200\/300`.\" For any task involving fetching data from the web, the `HTTP Request` node is the one to go for. It's versatile enough to handle various types of web interactions. So, I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` node. Its `typeVersion` is 1.\n\nNow, how do I configure this `HTTP Request` node? The prompt gives me the exact URL: `https:\/\/picsum.photos\/200\/300`. So, I'll set the `url` parameter to `https:\/\/picsum.photos\/200\/300`. This tells the node where to send its request. The crucial part here is \"download an image file.\" By default, an HTTP request node might expect text or JSON. To ensure it handles a binary file correctly, I need to explicitly tell it to treat the response as a file. Looking at the parameters, I see a `responseFormat` option. I'll set this to \"file.\" This is critical because it ensures n8n correctly receives the binary data of the image and stores it internally as a file, ready to be passed to subsequent nodes that can work with files. I'll connect the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's \"main\" output to the \"HTTP Request\" node's \"main\" input. This establishes the sequence: trigger the workflow, then make the HTTP request.\n\nFinally, the prompt states: \"Afterwards, use the Edit Image node to extract information from the downloaded image.\" This immediately tells me I need the `Edit Image` node. This node is designed for various image manipulation tasks, and, as the prompt suggests, it can also extract metadata. So, I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.editImage` node. Its `typeVersion` is 1.\n\nFor the `Edit Image` node, I need to specify what operation it should perform. The prompt asks to \"extract information.\" When I look at the available `operation` options for the `Edit Image` node, \"information\" is a perfect match. This operation tells the node to analyze the input image and output its metadata, such as width, height, format, and color depth, without actually altering the image itself. It's exactly what's needed for \"extracting information.\"\n\nTo make sure the `Edit Image` node receives the image we just downloaded, I need to connect the \"HTTP Request\" node's \"main\" output to the \"Edit Image\" node's \"main\" input. This connection passes the downloaded image file, which the `HTTP Request` node made available, to the `Edit Image` node for processing. This completes the flow: start, download, then analyze." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Set\" that uses a Set node to add a \"name\" property with the value \"test\", followed by a Function node to verify the Set node's output.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Start\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.start\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"string\": [{\"name\": \"name\", \"value\": \"test\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [430, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"testData = JSON.stringify({\\n name: \\\"test\\\"\\n});\\n\\nif(JSON.stringify($node['Set'].json)!==testData){\\n throw new Error('Error in Set node');\\n}\\nreturn items;\"}, \"name\": \"Function\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.function\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Function\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Start\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed.

I'll need three nodes in total for this, connecting them sequentially.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. So, I'll begin by adding a **Start** node.\n- **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.start`\n- **Type Version**: 1\n- **Reasoning**: This is the fundamental entry point for any n8n workflow. It doesn't require any specific configuration for this scenario, as its sole purpose here is to trigger the execution of the subsequent nodes. It effectively provides an initial, empty data item to begin processing. This is typically the first node I'd reach for when building a new workflow that isn't triggered by an external event.\n\nNext, the prompt specifically asks to \"add a 'name' property with the value 'test'\" using a Set node. This is straightforward. I'll connect this node directly to the Start node.\n- **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n- **Type Version**: 1\n- **Connection**: It will connect from the `Start` node's `main` output to this `Set` node's `main` input. This means the default empty item generated by the Start node will now flow into this Set node, ready to be modified.\n- **Reasoning**: The Set node is designed precisely for manipulating data items, whether it's adding new properties, modifying existing ones, or even removing them. It's perfect for fulfilling the core requirement of the prompt.\n- **Parameters**:\n - Under the `Values` section, I need to specify that I'm adding a string value.\n - I'll set the `Name` field to \"name\". This will be the key of the new property on the data item.\n - And for the `Value`, I'll enter \"test\". This will be the value assigned to the \"name\" property.\n - I'll leave the `Options` as default since no complex merging or overwriting is required here.\n- **Expected Output**: After this node executes, the incoming empty item will be transformed into an item containing `{\"name\": \"test\"}`.\n\nFinally, the prompt requires a verification step using a Function node. This is where I'll put some custom JavaScript to ensure the Set node did its job correctly.\n- **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.function`\n- **Type Version**: 1\n- **Connection**: This node will connect from the `Set` node's `main` output to its `main` input. So, the item `{\"name\": \"test\"}` that was created by the Set node will now be passed into this Function node for inspection.\n- **Reasoning**: A Function node is ideal for custom logic, transformations, and, in this case, verification, as it allows executing arbitrary JavaScript code against the incoming data. There isn't a dedicated \"assert\" or \"verify JSON\" node, so writing a small script is the most flexible and direct approach.\n- **Parameters**:\n - `functionCode`: This is where the magic happens.\n - First, I'll define what the *expected* data should look like, stringified for easy comparison. So, `testData = JSON.stringify({ name: \"test\" });`. This sets up our target.\n - Then, the core verification logic: `if(JSON.stringify($node['Set'].json)!==testData){ throw new Error('Error in Set node'); }`. This line is crucial. `JSON.stringify($node['Set'].json)` accesses the *output* of the previous 'Set' node (identified by its name 'Set') and stringifies it. This allows for a direct string comparison with our `testData`. If they don't match, it means the Set node didn't produce the expected output, and I'll throw an error to halt the workflow and indicate failure.\n - Lastly, `return items;`. It's good practice for a Function node to return the `items` it received if the verification passes, allowing the workflow to continue or just making the verified data available at the end of the execution.\n - `notes`: I'll add a brief note like \"Verify the result of set node\" to make the purpose of this node immediately clear when looking at the workflow canvas.\n\nThis sequence of Start -> Set -> Function directly addresses all parts of the user prompt and provides a robust way to create and verify the data modification." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow that manually triggers an HTTP request to get a random cocktail from TheCocktailDB API.

For any workflow that you want to kick off directly from the n8n interface, the `Manual Trigger` node is the perfect choice. It's simple, straightforward, and serves as our entry point. So, I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node, keeping its `typeVersion` at `1`. It doesn't require any specific configuration; its job is simply to start the flow when someone clicks the 'Execute Workflow' button.\n\nOnce our workflow is triggered, the next logical step, according to the prompt, is to \"get a random cocktail from TheCocktailDB API.\" When you need to interact with an external service via its API, the `HTTP Request` node is the workhorse in n8n. It's designed specifically for making web requests. So, I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` node with `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how do we configure this `HTTP Request` node? We need to tell it where to get the data from. The prompt specifies \"TheCocktailDB API\" and \"random cocktail.\" Knowing TheCocktailDB's API, the endpoint for a random drink is `https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php`. So, I'll set this as the `url` parameter. For a simple GET request like this, we typically don't need any special `options`, so we can leave those as default. This `HTTP Request` node will need to run directly after our manual trigger, so I'll connect the `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` node to the `main` input of the `HTTP Request` node. This ensures that as soon as the workflow starts, it goes out and fetches that random cocktail.\n\nWith the cocktail data fetched, the next part of the user's request is to \"translate the cocktail's instructions (`strInstructions`) into Italian\" using LingvaNex. This clearly indicates that we'll need a dedicated LingvaNex node. n8n has a node specifically for this service, which simplifies the integration. So, I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.lingvaNex` node, with `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow for the configuration of the `LingvaNex` node.\nThe most important part is specifying *what* text to translate. The prompt mentions translating `strInstructions`. This data will be coming from the output of our previous `HTTP Request` node. The response from TheCocktailDB is typically a JSON object. We'll need to use an expression to pull out the specific `strInstructions` field. The common structure for the cocktail data is an array called `drinks`, which contains individual drink objects. So, to access the instructions for the first (and usually only) drink returned, we'd use an expression like `={{$node[\"HTTP Request\"].json[\"drinks\"][0][\"strInstructions\"]}}`. This expression correctly navigates through the JSON output from the `HTTP Request` node to pinpoint the `strInstructions` value.\n\nNext, we need to tell LingvaNex *into what language* to translate. The prompt clearly states \"into Italian.\" So, in the `translateTo` parameter, I'll set the value to `it_IT`, which is the standard language code for Italian in many translation services.\n\nFinally, the `LingvaNex` node requires authentication. It has a `credentials` field where a LingvaNex API key would be provided. This allows the node to securely connect to the LingvaNex service.\n\nAnd how does this `LingvaNex` node fit into the flow? It needs the data from the `HTTP Request` node to perform its translation. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the `HTTP Request` node to the `main` input of the `LingvaNex` node. This ensures the instructions are available for translation immediately after they're fetched.\n\nThat completes the workflow as per the requirements. We've got a manual trigger, an HTTP request to get the data, and then a translation step using the specific LingvaNex service. Each node builds on the previous one, passing the necessary information along." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a \"When chat message received\" trigger, then connects to a \"Set\" node named \"Node 1\" which outputs raw JSON, followed by another \"Set\" node named \"Node 2\" also outputting raw JSON.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"When chat message received\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [320, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_1\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_2\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [580, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_3\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_4\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, -380]}], \"connections\": {\"When chat message received\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Node 1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. My goal is to create an n8n workflow that starts with a chat message trigger, then processes data through a couple of `Set` nodes, both configured to output raw JSON.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states it should begin with a \"When chat message received\" trigger. Looking at the JSON, I see a node with the name \"When chat message received\" and its type is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1.1`. This is precisely what I need. This node is perfect because it's designed to listen for incoming chat messages, which aligns perfectly with the requirement. It's the entry point; nothing happens in the workflow until a chat message is received. I don't need to configure much here beyond its basic existence and allowing it to set up its webhook, which seems to be handled automatically given the `webhookId` in the JSON. The `options` parameter is an empty object, indicating no specific configurations are required for its initial setup.\n\nNow that I have my trigger, what's next? The prompt specifies connecting to a \"Set\" node named \"Node 1\" which outputs raw JSON. So, my immediate thought is to add a `Set` node directly after the chat trigger. Why a `Set` node? Because `Set` nodes are incredibly versatile for manipulating data, adding new fields, or, in this case, outputting a very specific structure. They act like a placeholder or a transformation step where you can define exactly what data you want to pass along.\n\nSo, I'll add a `Set` node. I'll name it \"Node 1\" as per the instructions. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.4`. This is a standard and robust version of the `Set` node. Now, for its configuration: the prompt says it should output raw JSON. This is crucial. In a `Set` node, you have different modes for how it processes and outputs data. The JSON shows `mode: \"raw\"`. This is exactly what I need. It means the node won't try to interpret or merge data in a standard way; instead, it will simply output whatever JSON string I provide directly.\n\nAnd what JSON should it output? The `jsonOutput` parameter in the JSON shows:\n```json\n\"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_1\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_2\\\": 1\\n}\\n\"\n```\nThis is a simple JSON object with two fields, `this_my_field_1` and `this_my_field_2`. So, I'd paste that exact string into the `JSON` field when the `Mode` is set to \"Raw\". This ensures the node's output is exactly as specified. The `options` parameter is again an empty object, suggesting no other special behaviors are needed for this node.\n\nWith \"Node 1\" configured, I need to connect it to the \"When chat message received\" trigger. This connection is straightforward: the \"main\" output of the trigger node should connect to the \"main\" input of \"Node 1\". This ensures that once a chat message is received, the workflow immediately proceeds to execute \"Node 1\".\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"followed by another 'Set' node named 'Node 2' also outputting raw JSON.\" This indicates a sequential flow, so \"Node 2\" will come directly after \"Node 1\".\n\nI'll add another `Set` node. Again, it's a `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.4`, just like \"Node 1\". I'll name it \"Node 2\". And just like \"Node 1,\" it needs to output raw JSON, so I'll set its `mode` parameter to `\"raw\"`. This ensures consistency with the requirements.\n\nFor the `jsonOutput` of \"Node 2\", the JSON provides:\n```json\n\"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_3\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_4\\\": 1\\n}\\n\"\n```\nThis is another simple JSON object, distinct from the first. I'll input this string into the raw JSON field for \"Node 2\". This setup means that whatever data \"Node 1\" produces will then be completely replaced by this new raw JSON output from \"Node 2\". It's not modifying the previous data; it's defining its own new set of data for subsequent nodes. The `options` here are also an empty object, no special options are set.\n\nTo complete the flow, I need to connect \"Node 1\" to \"Node 2\". This will be a standard \"main\" connection, where the output of \"Node 1\" flows into the input of \"Node 2\". This ensures the sequence: trigger -> \"Node 1\" -> \"Node 2\". This is a very linear workflow, which is simple and effective for demonstrating the data flow. The raw JSON output from each `Set` node will overwrite the previous item, providing a fresh JSON object for the next step." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that uses a manual trigger to create a new task in Todoist, leaving the task content ready to be specified.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Create a new task in Todoist\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [550, 250]}, {\"parameters\": {\"content\": \"\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Todoist\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.todoist\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [750, 250]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Todoist\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this n8n workflow from the ground up, based on the requirements and the provided JSON structure. The goal is straightforward: a manual trigger kicks off a process to create a new Todoist task, with the content left blank for later specification.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger that tells it when to run. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger.\" So, the very first node I'd reach for is going to be a trigger node. Looking at the n8n node types, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node is the perfect fit.\n\nI'd place this node down and likely name it something descriptive like \"On clicking 'execute'\" \u2013 this makes it clear what this node does from the workflow's visual layout. As for its configuration, a `manualTrigger` node typically doesn't require any specific parameters to be set; it just waits for a user to press the \"Execute Workflow\" button. So, its `parameters` property will remain an empty object `{}`. The `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the standard and doesn't suggest any complex version-specific behavior I'd need to worry about for this basic trigger. This sets up the initial entry point for our workflow.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step is to perform the actual action: creating a task in Todoist. This tells me I'm going to need a node that can interact with the Todoist API. So, I'd look for an integration node. The `n8n-nodes-base.todoist` node is the obvious choice here. I'd drag and drop that onto the canvas next.\n\nNow, for configuring the `Todoist` node. The core requirement is to \"create a new task\" and \"leaving the task content ready to be specified.\" This means the `Todoist` node needs to be set up in a way that it's poised to create a task, but the actual task description is intentionally left blank in the workflow definition itself.\n\nWithin the `Todoist` node's parameters, there will typically be an operation field, which I'd set to \"Create Task\" or similar. Then, there's the `content` field, which corresponds to the task's text. To fulfill the \"ready to be specified\" part of the prompt, I would explicitly set this `content` parameter to an empty string: `\"\"`. This ensures that when the workflow runs, it tries to create a task, but the user either has to manually input the content before execution (if executing directly) or, more likely in a real-world scenario, the content would come from data passed from a previous node (though not in this simple example). This aligns perfectly with the design goal.\n\nFor `options`, it's an empty object `{}`, which means we're not specifying any additional details for the task like due dates, projects, or labels. This keeps the workflow simple and focused on the core requirement of just creating a task.\n\nA critical part of any integration node like Todoist is authentication. The `credentials` property for `todoistApi` is set to an empty string `\"\"`. This indicates that a user running this workflow would need to provide their Todoist API key or set up an OAuth connection in n8n for this node to be able to communicate with their Todoist account. I wouldn't fill in any sensitive information here, but it's important to recognize that this is where the necessary API credentials would be configured by the user. The `typeVersion` is `1`, which again, is standard and not a concern for basic functionality.\n\nFinally, how do these two nodes connect? We need a clear flow from the trigger to the action. The `connections` block in the JSON shows this directly. The \"On clicking 'execute'\" node (our `manualTrigger`) has a `main` output that connects to the `Todoist` node's `main` input. This is a standard sequential flow. It means that once the manual trigger is activated, it simply passes an empty item (or a default item depending on n8n's internal handling) along its `main` output, which then causes the `Todoist` node to execute. There's no complex data transformation or routing happening; it's a straightforward execution path. This perfectly completes the simple, linear workflow requested." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Receive updates for specified tasks in Flow' that triggers on updates to 'task' resources using a 'Flow Trigger' node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Receive updates for specified tasks in Flow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"taskIds\": \"\", \"resource\": \"task\"}, \"name\": \"Flow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.flowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 250]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this n8n workflow from the ground up, keeping the user's prompt and the provided JSON structure in mind.\n\nThe goal here is pretty clear from the user prompt: \"Create an n8n workflow named 'Receive updates for specified tasks in Flow' that triggers on updates to 'task' resources using a 'Flow Trigger' node.\" This tells me immediately what the primary purpose of this workflow is: to react to changes in task data within a \"Flow\" system (which n8n's Flow Trigger node typically integrates with).\n\nFirst things first, I need to name this workflow. Based on the prompt, it will be named \"Receive updates for specified tasks in Flow\". This descriptive name helps anyone understand its purpose at a glance when browsing workflows.\n\nNow, to the actual construction of the workflow. Since the primary requirement is to \"trigger on updates,\" I know I need a trigger node right away. The prompt is very specific about using a \"Flow Trigger\" node. This makes my choice straightforward.\n\nSo, I'd bring in a \"Flow Trigger\" node. Its full type is `n8n-nodes-base.flowTrigger`, and looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This `typeVersion` is important because it dictates the available parameters and behavior of the node; future versions might introduce new features or change how existing ones work, but for now, we're sticking to version 1.\n\nOnce I have the Flow Trigger node on the canvas, I need to configure it. Looking at the `parameters` in the provided JSON, I see two key settings: `resource` and `taskIds`.\n\nThe `resource` parameter is set to \"task\". This is critical. It tells the Flow Trigger node exactly what kind of events it should be listening for. By setting it to \"task\", I'm instructing n8n to listen for any updates, creations, or deletions related to \"task\" resources in the integrated Flow system. If this were set to something else, like \"project\" or \"user\", the workflow would trigger on changes to those respective resources instead. But for our current goal of tracking task updates, \"task\" is the correct choice.\n\nNext, there's the `taskIds` parameter. In the provided JSON, this is an empty string (`\"\"`). This is an interesting detail. If specific `taskIds` were provided here (e.g., a comma-separated list of IDs), the workflow would only trigger when *those particular tasks* were updated. However, since it's empty, it means the trigger is configured to listen for updates on *any* task resource that it has access to. This makes the workflow more general-purpose, fulfilling the \"Receive updates for specified tasks\" by *allowing* specification if desired, but by default, it acts broadly. This broad approach is often a good starting point, as you can always add filters later in the workflow if you only want to process certain tasks, or come back and populate this field if the requirement becomes more narrow.\n\nFinally, the `credentials` section shows `{\"flowApi\": \"\"}`. This tells me that this Flow Trigger node requires authentication to connect to the Flow API and receive event notifications. I would need to either select an existing \"Flow API\" credential or create a new one. This credential would contain the necessary API keys or tokens to securely communicate with the Flow system. Without valid credentials, the node wouldn't be able to listen for any events.\n\nAt this point, the workflow essentially consists of a single node configured to listen for task updates. There are no connections to other nodes because it's purely a trigger, the starting point. The JSON also indicates `active: false`, meaning after building it, I would need to manually activate the workflow for it to start listening for events.\n\nAnd that's it for this initial setup. This single node serves as the entry point, ready to receive events as soon as it's activated." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and connects directly to a Microsoft SQL node for executing a query.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"query\": \"\", \"operation\": \"executeQuery\"}, \"name\": \"Microsoft SQL\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.microsoftSql\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Microsoft SQL\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants something pretty specific: a manual trigger followed immediately by a Microsoft SQL query execution. This sounds like a common pattern for ad-hoc database interactions or testing, which is great.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick off this workflow. Since the requirement is a \"manual trigger,\" that's the obvious starting point. I'd reach for the `manualTrigger` node.\n\nSo, I'm starting with a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and it's `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to allow a user to initiate the workflow execution from the n8n UI, simply by clicking a button. It's super straightforward and doesn't require any complex configuration, which is exactly what we need for a manual start. Looking at the JSON, its name is set to \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is a really clear and user-friendly name for its function. There are no specific parameters to configure for this node; it just triggers and sends a single item downstream.\n\nNow, what comes next? The prompt says it \"connects directly to a Microsoft SQL node for executing a query.\" So, after our manual trigger, the workflow needs to interact with a SQL database. For that, the `Microsoft SQL` node is the right choice.\n\nSo, the next node I'd add is of type `n8n-nodes-base.microsoftSql` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is specifically designed to interact with Microsoft SQL Server databases, allowing for various operations like executing queries, inserting, updating, or deleting data. In this scenario, it's explicitly for \"executing a query.\"\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The `manualTrigger` needs to pass its execution flow to the `Microsoft SQL` node. The standard connection is from the `manualTrigger`'s `main` output to the `Microsoft SQL` node's `main` input. This ensures that once the manual trigger is activated, the workflow proceeds directly to the SQL operation. It's a simple, direct, one-way flow, just as required.\n\nLet's look at the configuration for the `Microsoft SQL` node. The JSON shows a couple of important parameters.\nFirst, `operation` is set to `\"executeQuery\"`. This is crucial because it tells the Microsoft SQL node exactly what kind of action to perform. It's not trying to insert data or update a table; it's specifically configured to run a raw SQL query. This perfectly matches the \"executing a query\" part of the user's prompt.\n\nSecond, there's a `query` parameter, which is currently an empty string: `\"\"`. This is where the actual SQL command would be entered by the user. For instance, they might type `SELECT * FROM Customers;` or `EXEC SomeStoredProcedure;`. For the initial setup of the workflow, leaving it empty is perfectly normal, as the specific query is something the end-user will define based on their database needs.\n\nFinally, there are the `credentials`. The JSON has `credentials: {\"microsoftSql\": \"\"}`. This is where the connection details to the actual SQL server would be linked. This isn't something we'd put directly in the workflow JSON for security reasons. Instead, a user would create a `Microsoft SQL` credential in n8n's credential store, providing details like the host, port, database name, username, and password, and then select that credential here. The empty string just indicates that a credential needs to be chosen or configured. It's a placeholder for sensitive connection information.\n\nAnd that's it. This setup perfectly aligns with the requirements: a manual start, direct connection, and the ability to run a custom SQL query. It's clean, efficient, and uses the appropriate nodes for each step." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a Postmark Trigger node that fires when an email is bounced or opened, and includes the event content in the trigger data.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Receive updates when an email is bounced or opened\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"events\": [\"bounce\", \"open\"], \"includeContent\": true}, \"name\": \"Postmark Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.postmarkTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [690, 260]}], \"connections\": {\"Postmark Trigger\": {\"main\": [[]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's break this down. The goal here is to create an n8n workflow that listens for specific events from Postmark \u2013 specifically when an email bounces or is opened \u2013 and then captures all the details of that event.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need to figure out is how n8n is going to *know* when an email event happens in Postmark. This immediately screams \"trigger node\" to me. I need something that can initiate the workflow when the specified event occurs.\n\nLooking at the prompt and the provided JSON, it's pretty clear that a dedicated Postmark trigger node is the way to go. This is ideal because it's designed specifically for integrating with Postmark's webhook system.\n\nLet's start by adding that Postmark Trigger node.\nIts `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.postmarkTrigger`, which confirms it's the specialized trigger node for Postmark.\nIt's `typeVersion` is `1`. This means I'm using version 1 of this particular node. If there were other versions, they might offer different functionalities or parameter options, but for now, this version seems to be exactly what's needed.\n\nNow, how do I configure this \"Postmark Trigger\" node to meet the requirements?\n\nThe user prompt specified \"fires when an email is bounced or opened\". So, I need to tell the Postmark Trigger node *which* events it should listen for.\nLooking at the `parameters` within the node's configuration, I see an `events` array. This is perfect! I'd set it to `[\"bounce\", \"open\"]`. This ensures that the workflow will only activate when Postmark sends a webhook for either a 'bounce' event or an 'open' event. If it were a 'click' event, for example, this workflow wouldn't fire. This is a precise match for the requirement.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"includes the event content in the trigger data.\" This is also directly addressed in the parameters. There's a `includeContent` parameter set to `true`. This is exactly what I want. When Postmark sends the event, setting this to `true` means n8n will capture all the data Postmark sends along with that event \u2013 things like the recipient's email, the timestamp, details about the bounce (e.g., the reason), or details about the open (e.g., IP address, user agent). Without this, the trigger might just tell me *that* an event happened, but not *what* the event entailed. So, `includeContent: true` is essential for getting the full picture.\n\nThe node also has `credentials` configured as `{\"postmarkApi\": \"postmark\"}`. This is crucial for the node to function. It means I would have previously set up a Postmark API credential in n8n (named \"postmark\" in this case). This credential, typically an API key, allows n8n to authenticate with Postmark. It's likely used by the trigger node to register the webhook URL with Postmark, or to validate the incoming webhook request, ensuring it's genuinely from my Postmark account. It's an underlying requirement for n8n to communicate effectively with Postmark.\n\nI also see a `webhookId` which is `1422ac7a-62ba-4f7c-8e22-4e8ecb4950ce`. This ID is something n8n generates internally when the workflow is activated. It's part of the unique URL that n8n provides, and which I would then configure in Postmark as the webhook endpoint for my bounce and open events. Postmark sends its event data to this specific URL, and that's how n8n receives it and triggers the workflow.\n\nFinally, the `active: false` setting simply means the workflow isn't currently running or listening for events. Once I'm done designing it and confident in the configuration, I'd activate it. Once active, it would expose that webhook URL, and Postmark could then start sending data to it.\n\nThe connections array `{\"Postmark Trigger\": {\"main\": [[]]}}` shows that this is a single-node workflow. The `Postmark Trigger` node is the beginning and the end for this specific workflow definition. It's just set up to receive the data. What happens *after* the data is received (e.g., sending it to a database, notifying a Slack channel, etc.) would involve adding more nodes connected downstream from this \"Postmark Trigger\" node. But for the prompt's request, which is just about triggering and including content, this single node handles it perfectly as the entry point." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that starts with a Schedule Trigger node named 'A'. Connect 'A' to a Set node named 'B' which is configured with an empty assignment, and then connect 'B' to another Set node named 'C'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"A\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"3d8f0810-84f0-41ce-a81b-0e7f04fd88cb\", \"name\": \"\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"B\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"C\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"A\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"B\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"B\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"C\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow built. I'm going to start from scratch, thinking about what each piece does and why it fits here.\n\nSo, the prompt says the workflow \"starts with a Schedule Trigger node named 'A'\". That's my obvious first step. I need a trigger to kick everything off. Looking at the JSON, the first node, identified by its name \"A\", is indeed a `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` node with `typeVersion` 1.2. This is perfect because a Schedule Trigger is designed to initiate a workflow at regular intervals, or perhaps just once if configured that way. In this specific configuration, I see `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This means it's set up to trigger on a schedule, but the exact interval isn't specified in the JSON snippet, which would mean it either defaults or needs further user input in the UI to define *when* it triggers (e.g., every hour, daily, etc.). For now, it's the fundamental starting point, waiting for its appointed time to fire. I'll place it right at the beginning of my canvas.\n\nNext, the prompt states that I need to \"Connect 'A' to a Set node named 'B' which is configured with an empty assignment\". Okay, so after \"A\" triggers, I need some sort of node to process or manipulate data, and a Set node is a great choice for that. A `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, with `typeVersion` 3.4 as indicated in the JSON, allows me to explicitly set or modify data fields. I'll drag one onto the canvas and name it \"B\".\n\nNow for the connection: I'll connect the main output of node \"A\" to the main input of node \"B\". This ensures that whenever \"A\" successfully triggers and produces output (which for a Schedule Trigger is usually just an empty item or a timestamp), that output is passed directly to \"B\" to be processed.\n\nRegarding the configuration of node \"B\", the prompt specifically mentions an \"empty assignment\". Looking at the JSON for node \"B\", I see under its `parameters`: `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"3d8f0810-84f0-41ce-a81b-0e7f04fd88cb\", \"name\": \"\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}`. This confirms that configuration. What this means in practice is that node \"B\" will add a new field to the incoming data (or create a new item if none exists), but this new field will have an empty name and an empty string value. It's essentially adding a placeholder or an empty container to the data structure that might be filled later or serves a very specific, perhaps debug, purpose. It's an unusual setup, but I'll configure it exactly as specified.\n\nFinally, the prompt says to \"then connect 'B' to another Set node named 'C'\". Alright, another Set node. So, after node \"B\" has done its job of adding that empty assignment, the data (which now includes that empty field) needs to flow into the next stage. I'll add another `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, also `typeVersion` 3.4, and name it \"C\".\n\nThe connection is straightforward: I'll link the main output of node \"B\" to the main input of node \"C\". This ensures the modified data from \"B\" is passed along.\n\nFor the configuration of node \"C\", the JSON shows `{\"options\": {}}` under its parameters. This means node \"C\" doesn't have any specific assignments configured. Unlike \"B\" which adds an empty field, \"C\" will simply receive the data from \"B\" and pass it through without making any explicit changes to the data itself. It acts more like a pass-through or a placeholder for future logic. It's common to have a Set node without assignments if you intend to add logic later, or if it's just meant to represent a stage in the workflow where data might be conceptually 'set' but not actually modified in this step.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow as per the instructions and the provided JSON. I've got the trigger, the first data manipulation step, and then a final pass-through step, all linked sequentially." } { "prompt": "Generate a workflow that adds a datapoint to the Beeminder goal named 'testing' whenever a new activity is created in Strava, using the Strava activity's name as the comment for the Beeminder datapoint.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Add a datapoint to Beeminder when new activity is added to Strava\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"event\": \"create\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Strava Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.stravaTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [470, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"goalName\": \"testing\", \"additionalFields\": {\"comment\": \"={{$json[\\\"object_data\\\"][\\\"name\\\"]}}\"}}, \"name\": \"Beeminder\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.beeminder\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [670, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Strava Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Beeminder\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's think this through. The goal here is pretty clear: we want to automate the process of adding a datapoint to Beeminder every time a new activity is logged in Strava. And crucially, that datapoint needs to include the Strava activity's name as a comment.\n\nFirst things first, how do we *start* this workflow? We need something to listen for new Strava activities. Strava has a good API, and usually, for real-time updates like this, webhooks are the way to go. This means we'll need a trigger node that can receive these webhook events from Strava.\n\nSo, my initial thought for the very first node would be a Strava-specific trigger.\n\n**Node 1: Strava Trigger**\n* **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.stravaTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nWhy this specific node? Well, it's purpose-built for Strava events. It handles the whole webhook setup with Strava, making it super easy to listen for exactly what we need. If we didn't have this, we'd probably be looking at a generic Webhook node and then needing to figure out how to parse Strava's specific payload and maybe even handle authentication ourselves, which is much more complex. This `stravaTrigger` node simplifies all of that.\n\nNow, let's configure it.\n* **Event:** The user prompt says \"whenever a new activity is created\". Looking at the JSON, I see `\"event\": \"create\"`. This perfectly matches our requirement. So, this node will specifically fire when a *new* activity is created in Strava.\n* **Options:** The JSON shows an empty `options` object, meaning we're fine with the default settings for the trigger.\n* **Credentials:** There's a `stravaOAuth2Api` credential referenced. This is where the workflow would be connected to a user's Strava account, allowing n8n to receive those activity updates. We'd have configured an OAuth 2.0 connection there.\n\nSo, at this point, we have a listener. Whenever a new activity pops up in Strava, this node will get the data about that activity. I'll keep in mind that the data coming out of this node will contain all the details of the new Strava activity, including its name, which we'll need for the Beeminder comment.\n\nNext, once we *have* that Strava activity data, what do we need to do with it? We need to send it to Beeminder to add a datapoint. This implies we'll need a node that can interact with the Beeminder API.\n\n**Node 2: Beeminder**\n* **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.beeminder`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nWhy this node? Just like the Strava trigger, this is a dedicated node for Beeminder. It handles the API calls to Beeminder, making it straightforward to add datapoints. If we didn't have this, we'd be trying to use an HTTP Request node, constructing the API call ourselves, dealing with authentication headers, and parsing responses, which is a lot more work and error-prone. This `beeminder` node abstracts all that complexity away.\n\nNow, for the configuration of the Beeminder node:\n* **Connection:** This node needs to run *after* the Strava activity is detected. So, a direct connection from the \"Strava Trigger\" node's main output to the \"Beeminder\" node's main input is exactly what we need. This ensures that the data from the Strava activity is passed directly to the Beeminder node for processing.\n\n* **Goal Name:** The prompt explicitly states \"to the Beeminder goal named 'testing'\". The JSON confirms this with `\"goalName\": \"testing\"`. This tells the Beeminder node which specific goal to interact with.\n\n* **Additional Fields - Comment:** This is where we link the Strava activity name to the Beeminder datapoint. The prompt says \"using the Strava activity's name as the comment for the Beeminder datapoint.\" The JSON shows: `\"comment\": \"={{$json[\\\"object_data\\\"][\\\"name\\\"]}}\"`.\n * This is an expression. The `={{...}}` syntax indicates that we're using an expression to dynamically pull data from the previous node's output.\n * `$json` refers to the entire JSON data payload that comes from the *previous* node (which is our Strava Trigger node).\n * `[\"object_data\"]` and then `[\"name\"]` tells us exactly where within that Strava payload the activity's name is located. So, it's taking the `name` field from the `object_data` object within the incoming Strava data. This perfectly fulfills the requirement of using the Strava activity's name as the comment.\n\n* **Credentials:** Similar to Strava, there's a `beeminderApi` credential referenced. This would be where the user's Beeminder API token or similar authentication details are configured, allowing n8n to write to their Beeminder account.\n\nSo, in summary, the Strava Trigger waits for a new activity. Once it detects one, it extracts the details, including the activity's name. It then passes this information to the Beeminder node, which uses the extracted activity name as the comment for a new datapoint on the 'testing' goal. It's a clean, two-step process that directly addresses the user's requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow named \"Manual wait set\" that starts with a \"Manual\" trigger. Connect the trigger to a \"Wait\" node configured to pause for 2 seconds, and then connect the \"Wait\" node to a \"Set\" node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Manual wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [900, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Manual\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1120, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Manual\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt asks for a specific name and a sequence of three nodes: Manual Trigger, Wait, and Set. Looking at the JSON, it seems to align perfectly with that.\n\nFirst things first, I need to name this workflow. The prompt clearly states it should be named \"Manual wait set\". That's a good descriptive name, telling me at a glance what the core function is.\n\nNow, let's think about the actual nodes and their arrangement.\n\nEvery n8n workflow needs a starting point, a trigger that kicks things off. The prompt specifically asks for a \"Manual\" trigger. This is great because it means I can easily test the workflow by just clicking a button, or run it whenever needed without relying on external events or schedules. So, the first node I'll add is the **Manual Trigger** node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This is the ideal choice for a workflow that needs to be initiated on demand, exactly as the name \"Manual trigger\" suggests. It's simple, straightforward, and perfect for testing the subsequent steps. I don't see any specific parameters to configure for a basic Manual Trigger; its purpose is purely to start the execution.\n\nNext up, the prompt says to connect this trigger to a \"Wait\" node and specifies a pause of 2 seconds. This is a very common requirement, perhaps to simulate a delay in an external system's response, or to pace outgoing requests, or just to build in a small buffer before the next operation. So, after the Manual Trigger, I'll connect a **Wait** node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.wait`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** The \"Wait\" node is specifically designed to pause the execution of a workflow for a specified duration. This perfectly matches the requirement to \"pause for 2 seconds.\" There's no other node that does this quite as simply and effectively.\n* **Configuration:** Looking at the JSON, I can see the crucial parameters for the wait:\n * `\"amount\": 2`\n * `\"unit\": \"seconds\"`\n This configuration directly translates to pausing the workflow for precisely two seconds, which is exactly what the prompt asks for. The connection will simply be a main output from the \"Manual\" node feeding into the main input of the \"Wait\" node. Data will just flow through, waiting for the specified time before proceeding.\n\nFinally, the prompt instructs me to connect the \"Wait\" node to a \"Set\" node. The \"Set\" node is incredibly versatile in n8n; it's used for adding new fields to the data, modifying existing ones, or even removing them. In this specific case, the prompt doesn't specify *what* to set, just that a \"Set\" node should be the final step. It often acts as a placeholder for future data manipulation or simply as a concluding node for a sequence where you might want to finalize the data structure.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** The \"Set\" node is the appropriate choice for any operation involving modifying or creating data fields on the items passing through the workflow. Even if no specific fields are being set right now, having it as the final step makes sense if the intention is to prepare data for a later stage or just to mark the end of this particular sequence of operations. It's a common practice to end a small segment of a workflow with a \"Set\" node, even if it's not actively transforming data initially.\n* **Configuration:** The JSON shows `parameters: {\"options\": {}}`. This means that, as of now, no specific fields or values are being set. It's a \"no-op\" Set node, but it's ready to be configured to add or modify data whenever needed. The connection will be a simple main output from the \"Wait\" node into the main input of the \"Set\" node, passing whatever data existed after the wait period.\n\nSo, the flow is straightforward: Manual -> Wait -> Set. It's a simple, linear sequence fulfilling all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow: When an Emelia campaign (ID `6054d068b374b64365740101`) receives a 'replied' event, send a Mattermost message to channel `qx9yo1i9z3bg5qcy5a1oxnh69c` with the text '{{contact.firstName}} from {{contact.company}} has replied back to your campaign.'

The user wants something to happen \"When an Emelia campaign... receives a 'replied' event\". This immediately tells me my workflow needs to *start* with an Emelia trigger. It's the very first node because it's the event that kicks everything off.\n\nSo, I'd bring in an **Emelia Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.emeliaTrigger` and it's currently at `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed to listen for events from the Emelia platform, which is exactly what's required here.\n\nNow, I need to configure this Emelia Trigger. The prompt specifies two things:\n1. It should listen for a \"'replied' event\". So, in the node's parameters, I'd set the `events` property to include `\"replied\"`. This ensures the workflow only fires when a contact replies, not for other Emelia events like emails being sent or opened.\n2. It needs to be for a specific campaign, identified by `ID 6054d068b374b64365740101`. This means I'd also configure the `campaignId` parameter to `6054d068b374b64365740101`. This is crucial to filter events and only react to replies for *this specific campaign*.\n\nFinally, for this trigger node to function, it needs to authenticate with Emelia. I'd ensure the `credentials` are set up, referencing an existing Emelia API credential, which in the JSON is simply named `\"Emelia API Credentials\"`. This credential provides the necessary authentication for n8n to receive webhooks from Emelia. The `webhookId` is something n8n automatically generates and manages once the workflow is active; I don't manually configure that.\n\nOnce the Emelia Trigger node is set up to capture the \"replied\" event for the correct campaign, I need to figure out what happens *next*. The prompt says, \"send a Mattermost message\". This clearly points to the next node: a Mattermost action node.\n\nSo, the logical next step is to add a **Mattermost** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.mattermost` and it's also at `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect for interacting with the Mattermost API to send messages.\n\nNow for the connection: The Emelia Trigger will output data containing details about the reply event, including information about the contact who replied (their first name, company, etc.). The Mattermost node will need to *receive* this data to construct its message. Therefore, the \"main\" output of the `Emelia Trigger` node should connect directly to the \"main\" input of the `Mattermost` node. This ensures the data flows sequentially from the trigger to the action.\n\nWith the Mattermost node in place and connected, I need to configure it according to the prompt:\n1. \"send a Mattermost message to channel `qx9yo1i9z3bg5qcy5a1oxnh69c`\". So, in the Mattermost node's parameters, I'd set the `channelId` to `qx9yo1i9z3bg5qcy5a1oxnh69c`. This ensures the message goes to the correct Mattermost channel.\n2. The message text itself: \"'{{contact.firstName}} from {{contact.company}} has replied back to your campaign.'\" This is dynamic, meaning I need to pull data from the previous Emelia Trigger node's output.\n * In the `message` parameter of the Mattermost node, I'd use an expression. The `={{...}}` syntax in n8n allows for this.\n * The Emelia Trigger's output typically includes a `contact` object, and within that, fields like `firstName` and `company`. So, the expression would look like `={{$json[\\\"contact\\\"][\\\"firstName\\\"]}} from {{$json[\\\"contact\\\"][\\\"company\\\"]}} has replied back to your campaign.`. This tells the node to grab the `firstName` from the `contact` object in the incoming JSON data, then the `company` from the same `contact` object, and embed them into the message string. This is crucial for personalization.\n * The `attachments` and `otherOptions` parameters are left empty because the prompt doesn't specify any complex attachments or additional Mattermost options. Keeping it simple is often best unless more is required.\n\nFinally, just like the Emelia Trigger, the Mattermost node needs credentials to send messages. I'd link it to the appropriate Mattermost API credential, which the JSON calls `\"Mattermost Credentials\"`. This credential handles the authentication with Mattermost to allow the message to be sent successfully.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. The Emelia Trigger listens, captures the specific event, passes the relevant contact data to the Mattermost node, which then constructs and sends the personalized message to the correct channel." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Node versions' that starts with a manual trigger (typeVersion 1).

The goal is to create a workflow named \"Node versions\" that features a manual trigger and several specific nodes with varying `typeVersion`s.\n\nFirst things first, I'll set up the basic workflow structure. The prompt clearly states the workflow should be named \"Node versions\", so that's the initial configuration I'll apply to the workflow itself.\n\nNow, let's think about the nodes. The prompt mentions it \"starts with a manual trigger\", which makes perfect sense. A workflow always needs a starting point, and for testing or manual execution, a manual trigger is ideal.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, this node has the `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and importantly, its `typeVersion` is `1`. This type is suitable because it allows the workflow to be initiated simply by clicking a \"Test workflow\" button in the n8n editor, which is exactly what a manual trigger is for. The `typeVersion: 1` indicates a specific iteration of how that node's functionality or interface is structured. If I were to pick a newer version, its options or behavior might be slightly different, but for this specific design, version 1 is what's specified. I'll place it on the canvas, perhaps somewhere central to act as the logical start.\n\nNext, the prompt says to \"Include a Function node\" with a specific `typeVersion`. A Function node (`type: \"n8n-nodes-base.function\"`) is incredibly versatile. It allows me to write custom JavaScript code to manipulate data, perform calculations, or even call external services if needed. For this workflow, it seems like it's included perhaps to demonstrate its `typeVersion` as much as its functionality. The JSON confirms its `typeVersion: 1`. This means it uses the original API and structure for the Function node. Newer versions might offer more modern JavaScript features, different ways to access item data, or updated error handling. I'll add this node to the canvas as well.\n\nThe prompt then lists three different Set nodes, each with a distinct approach to `typeVersion`. This is quite interesting, as it highlights how n8n tracks and handles node versions. A Set node (`type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"`) is fundamental for modifying data flowing through a workflow. It's excellent for adding new fields, changing existing values, or even removing fields from the incoming data.\n\nLet's take them one by one.\n\nFirst, there's one named \"Edit Fields (latest)\" with `typeVersion 3.4`. So, I'd add a **Set** node. I'll name it \"Edit Fields (latest)\" as specified. Its `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` is correct, and I'll make sure its `typeVersion` is explicitly set to `3.4`. This `typeVersion` implies it's using a very recent iteration of the Set node's capabilities, potentially benefiting from performance improvements, new field configuration options, or updated expressions compared to older versions.\n\nThen, there's one named \"Edit Fields (old)\" with `typeVersion 2`. So, I'll add another **Set** node. I'll name this one \"Edit Fields (old)\". Its `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` is standard, but its `typeVersion` is `2`. This indicates an older, but still functional, version of the Set node. It might have a different UI, or certain advanced options available in 3.4 might be missing or implemented differently. It's good to include it to show the difference.\n\nFinally, there's one named \"Edit Fields (no typeVersion)\" with no specified `typeVersion`. This is a common scenario in n8n workflows. When a node is created and no `typeVersion` is explicitly saved, or if it's an older node from a time before `typeVersion`s were consistently tracked, it might simply omit the `typeVersion` field. In such cases, n8n typically uses a default or the latest compatible version internally when the workflow runs or is loaded. So, I'll add the last **Set** node, name it \"Edit Fields (no typeVersion)\", and ensure that, as per the JSON, it doesn't have a `typeVersion` property explicitly defined in its configuration.\n\nNow, regarding connections: I notice that the `connections` object in the provided JSON is empty (`{}`). This means that while all these nodes are present on the workflow canvas, they are not actually connected to each other in a flow. The prompt says \"starts with a manual trigger\" and then \"Include\" the other nodes. So, I've added them all to the canvas as individual, unconnected entities, ready for a user to potentially connect them later for specific testing or data flow purposes.

I see two Webhook nodes are needed. I'll add the first one, which the JSON shows is named \"Webhook\". This will be a `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, and its `typeVersion` is 2. Webhooks are perfect for this because they allow the workflow to be activated by an incoming HTTP request, making them flexible entry points. It's positioned at `[680, 180]`. Its `webhookId` is automatically generated, providing a unique endpoint for triggering this specific workflow.\n\nThen, I'll add the second Webhook node.

Having two separate Webhooks suggests that there might be two distinct external sources or events that can kick off the same subsequent process. They both have their own `webhookId` for unique triggering. This setup means either Webhook can independently initiate the flow.\n\nNow, the user prompt states that \"Both Webhooks should connect to a 'Hacker News' node.\" This means we need to fetch some information from Hacker News after one of our webhooks is triggered. So, the next logical step is to add the \"Hacker News\" node. I'd drag in a `n8n-nodes-base.hackerNews` node, which has `typeVersion` 1. It's positioned at `[920, 260]`.\n\nOnce the Hacker News node is in place, I need to configure it. The prompt specifically mentions it should be \"configured to retrieve article ID '123'\". Looking at the JSON, indeed, the `parameters` for this node include `{\"articleId\": \"123\"}`. This tells me that no matter which Webhook triggers the workflow, the Hacker News node will always attempt to retrieve the details for that specific article ID. This is quite straightforward; I just enter \"123\" into the Article ID field. There are no other complex configurations specified, like searching or getting top stories, just a direct article lookup.\n\nWith the Hacker News node configured, the next crucial step is to connect the two Webhook nodes to it. So, I'll draw a connection from the \"Webhook\" node's main output to the \"Hacker News\" node's main input. This ensures that when the \"Webhook\" is triggered, its execution path flows into the Hacker News node. Similarly, I'll connect the \"Webhook1\" node's main output to the \"Hacker News\" node's main input. This setup creates a merge point: both Webhooks funnel into the single Hacker News node, meaning that regardless of which Webhook receives a call, the workflow will proceed to fetch the specified Hacker News article. This is an efficient way to reuse the subsequent logic.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that the \"Hacker News\" node \"then connects to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields'\". So, I'll add a `n8n-nodes-base.set` node. This node is named \"Edit Fields\" and has `typeVersion` 3.3. It's placed at `[1140, 260]`. The Set node is incredibly versatile and commonly used to manipulate or add data to the incoming items. While the specific fields it's setting or editing aren't detailed in the prompt or the provided JSON parameters (beyond its name), its purpose is typically to refine or augment the data retrieved by the preceding node. For example, it might add a timestamp, rename a field, or filter certain data points before passing it on.\n\nTo complete the workflow, I'll connect the main output of the \"Hacker News\" node to the main input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This ensures that once the Hacker News article data is retrieved, it's immediately passed along to the \"Edit Fields\" node for any necessary processing or transformation. The flow is now complete: trigger from either Webhook, fetch Hacker News article 123, then potentially modify or enhance that data using the Set node." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow JSON named 'My workflow'.

The request is for an inactive n8n workflow named \"My workflow\" that needs to include a 'Start' node and a 'Webhook' node, with the Webhook specifically configured for a certain path and webhook ID.\n\nFirst off, when I'm building any n8n workflow, I always start by thinking about its fundamental properties. The prompt states the workflow should be named \"My workflow\" and be \"inactive\". So, at the top level of the workflow definition, I'd set `name` to \"My workflow\" and `active` to `false`. This ensures it won't trigger automatically until someone explicitly activates it, which is a good default for a new, in-progress workflow. The `id` is typically an internal identifier that n8n assigns, so I'd just let the system handle that. Things like `createdAt` and `updatedAt` are also metadata that the system manages, so I don't really think about them during the initial design phase.\n\nNow, onto the actual nodes. Every n8n workflow needs an entry point, or at least a starting point from which execution can begin. The prompt explicitly mentions needing a 'Start' node and a 'Webhook' node.\n\nLet's begin with the 'Start' node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.start`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This is the most basic and common way to begin any n8n workflow. It's often the default node when you create a new workflow in the UI. While it doesn't do much on its own, it serves as a clear visual and logical starting point for many workflows. It's especially useful for workflows that are triggered manually or by a schedule, or simply as a placeholder. For this particular workflow, even though a Webhook will be the primary trigger, having a 'Start' node is often part of the default template or a good practice to indicate the beginning of a potential flow.\n* **Configuration:** A 'Start' node typically has no specific parameters that need configuration. Its job is simply to exist as the initial node. I'd place it somewhere logical on the canvas, perhaps at `[240, 300]` like the example, keeping it a bit to the left to indicate an origin. The `id` will be a unique identifier automatically generated for this specific instance of the node within the workflow.\n\nNext, the prompt specifically calls for a 'Webhook' node configured with a path and webhook ID. This tells me the workflow's primary trigger will be an external HTTP request.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** The 'Webhook' node is the perfect choice for making a workflow callable from an external system or service. When an HTTP request is made to the webhook URL, it triggers the workflow. This is ideal for integrating with other applications, APIs, or custom scripts that need to send data to n8n to initiate a process.\n* **Configuration:** This node definitely needs some configuration to make it work as a specific endpoint.\n * **`parameters.path`**: The prompt specifies a path (which looks like a UUID in the example, but I'll just refer to it generally as a \"specific path\"). This path forms part of the full URL that external systems will call. It's essential for making the webhook unique and identifiable.\n * **`webhookId`**: This is another crucial identifier for the webhook, often matching the path or being another internal reference. It uniquely identifies this webhook instance within n8n.\n * **`parameters.options`**: This object usually contains additional settings for the webhook, such as authentication methods, response modes, or allowed HTTP methods. In this case, it's empty, implying default options are used, which is fine for a basic setup.\n* **Placement:** I'd place this node visually next to the 'Start' node, maybe a bit to the right, say `[460, 300]`. This suggests it's another entry point, or perhaps the primary one.\n\nNow, regarding connections. Looking at the provided JSON, the `connections` object is empty (`{}`). This means there isn't a direct visual or logical connection drawn from the 'Start' node to the 'Webhook' node, or from the 'Webhook' node to any subsequent node. This setup could imply a few things:\n1. The 'Start' node is simply present as a default, but the 'Webhook' node is the *actual* trigger for this workflow. When the webhook URL is hit, the workflow will start executing from that 'Webhook' node.\n2. The workflow is currently very simple, essentially just defining two independent potential entry points or components without any internal flow.\nGiven the prompt explicitly asks for a 'Webhook' node *configured for path and webhookId*, it's highly likely that the 'Webhook' node is intended as the primary trigger here, and the 'Start' node is just there as part of the default workflow structure.\n\nSo, in summary, the workflow defines its name and inactive status. It sets up a 'Start' node as a general workflow beginning, and crucially, configures a 'Webhook' node as an external trigger point with a specific path and identifier, ready to receive incoming requests. Since there are no `connections` specified, data won't flow from the Start node to the Webhook node, or from the Webhook node to any subsequent nodes, meaning it's a very barebones setup primarily designed to expose a webhook endpoint." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Manual wait set\" that begins with a Manual trigger. It should then wait for 2 seconds before connecting to a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Manual wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [900, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Manual\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1120, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Manual\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning out this n8n workflow, \"Manual wait set,\" based on the requirements and the provided JSON structure.\n\nFirst, I need to think about the overall goal: we need a workflow that starts manually, pauses for a bit, and then does something simple.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need in any workflow is a trigger. The prompt clearly states it \"begins with a Manual trigger.\" This tells me exactly which node to pick. I'll go for the **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` specified in the JSON is `1`. This is perfect because a manual trigger allows someone to simply click a button in the n8n UI to start the workflow whenever they want, which is precisely what \"begins with a Manual trigger\" implies. There aren't many parameters to configure for a basic manual trigger, so its default settings are usually sufficient here.\n\nAfter the workflow starts, the prompt says it \"should then wait for 2 seconds.\" This immediately points me to a specific utility node: a \"wait\" node. I'll look for the **Wait** node. Based on the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.wait`, and it's also `typeVersion: 1`. This node is ideal for pausing workflow execution for a specified duration. Now, how do I configure it to wait for exactly 2 seconds? I'll check its parameters. The JSON shows `amount: 2` and `unit: \"seconds\"`. This is exactly what's needed. So, I'll set the wait duration to 2 seconds. This ensures that any subsequent nodes only execute after this delay has passed. If I were using a different version of the wait node, perhaps the parameters for setting the time might be structured slightly differently, but the core functionality of pausing would remain.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The workflow needs to flow from the trigger to the wait. So, I'd draw a connection from the output of the \"Manual\" node to the input of the \"Wait\" node. The JSON's `connections` object confirms this: `Manual` connects to `Wait` via their `main` outputs and inputs. This means that when the \"Manual\" trigger is activated, it passes its execution flow (and any initial item, though for a manual trigger, it's usually just an empty item to start with) directly into the \"Wait\" node.\n\nFinally, the prompt states the workflow should \"connect to a Set node.\" This is typically used for adding or modifying data within the workflow. Even if it's just a placeholder for now, or if it's meant to process data later, it's a good concluding step for this simple example. So, I'll add a **Set** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion: 1`. The JSON shows its `parameters` block contains an empty `options` object, meaning it's not configured to add or change any specific data fields right now, but it's there to receive the workflow execution. It acts as a simple endpoint for the workflow in this scenario.\n\nThe last piece is connecting the \"Wait\" node to the \"Set\" node. Once the 2-second delay is over, the execution needs to continue to the \"Set\" node. So, I'll connect the output of the \"Wait\" node to the input of the \"Set\" node. Again, the `connections` in the JSON confirms this: `Wait` connects to `Set` via their `main` inputs\/outputs. This ensures a smooth flow, where the workflow waits, and then immediately proceeds to the \"Set\" node once the wait period expires, passing along any data items that were flowing through." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n Bitbucket Trigger node. It should activate on 'repository push' events for the 'test' repository, using 'bitbucket_creds' credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"events\": [\"repo:push\"], \"resource\": \"repository\", \"repository\": \"test\"}, \"name\": \"Bitbucket Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.bitbucketTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [880, 390]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow set up. My main goal here is to create a trigger that springs into action whenever there's a specific event happening in Bitbucket.\n\nFirst, I need to figure out what kind of node will *start* this workflow. The prompt clearly states it needs to activate on \"repository push\" events from Bitbucket. So, my mind immediately goes to a dedicated trigger node for Bitbucket. n8n has a `Bitbucket Trigger` node, which is perfect for this. It handles all the underlying webhook registration with Bitbucket, making it much simpler than trying to set up a generic webhook and then manually configure Bitbucket.\n\nSo, I'd bring in the `Bitbucket Trigger` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.bitbucketTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This `typeVersion` just tells me which internal variant of the node's configuration I'm working with. If there were other versions, they might expose different parameters or behave slightly differently, but version 1 is what we're working with, and it looks like it has all the necessary options. I'd name it something clear like \"Bitbucket Trigger\" so it's easy to identify later.\n\nNow, let's dive into configuring this trigger node. The prompt is quite specific about the conditions.\n\nI'll start by looking at the `parameters` block.\nThe prompt mentions \"repository push events\". Inside the node's settings, there's typically an \"Events\" field. The JSON shows `events: [\"repo:push\"]`. This maps directly to that. I'd select \"Repository Push\" from the available event types. This is fundamental because it ensures our workflow only wakes up when a code push happens, ignoring other Bitbucket activities like pull requests being opened or comments being added.\n\nNext, still within the parameters, I see `resource: \"repository\"`. This tells the Bitbucket Trigger that we're interested in events related to a specific repository, not, for example, a project or a workspace broadly. This makes perfect sense given the next parameter.\n\nFollowing that, there's `repository: \"test\"`. The prompt explicitly says \"for the 'test' repository\". So, in the node's configuration, I'd input \"test\" into the \"Repository\" field. This is crucial for filtering; if this were left blank, the trigger might fire for push events on *any* repository that the configured credentials have access to, which isn't what's requested here. We want to be specific about the \"test\" repository.\n\nFinally, the node needs to authenticate with Bitbucket to actually register the webhook and receive events. The prompt specifies \"using 'bitbucket_creds' credentials\". In the JSON, this is reflected under `credentials.bitbucketApi: \"bitbucket_creds\"`. So, within the node's settings, I'd select the pre-configured Bitbucket API credentials named \"bitbucket_creds\". These credentials would have been set up previously in n8n and would contain the necessary authentication information, like an OAuth application key and secret, or perhaps an App password, that allows n8n to communicate securely with Bitbucket. Without valid credentials, n8n wouldn't be able to establish the connection or listen for events.\n\nThe `webhookId` property, `97ca8044-5835-4547-801d-c27dd7f10c2d`, is something n8n generates internally when the workflow is activated. It's the unique identifier for the webhook created on the Bitbucket side that points back to this specific n8n workflow. I don't need to manually configure this; it's handled automatically.\n\nLooking at the `connections` block, it's empty. This is exactly what I'd expect for a workflow that's just a single trigger node. Trigger nodes are the starting point, so they don't have any incoming connections from other nodes. If there were subsequent steps in the workflow, say, processing the push event, then this `connections` object would describe how those nodes link up to the output of this trigger. But for now, we're just setting up the initiation point.\n\nAnd that's it! This single `Bitbucket Trigger` node, configured with the specified event, repository, and credentials, perfectly fulfills the requirements of the prompt. I don't need any other nodes or connections because the request is solely about defining the trigger itself." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named \"Demo workflow\" that begins with a Chat Trigger.

The goal is to create an inactive \"Demo workflow\" that starts with a chat trigger, feeds into an LLM chain, and uses an Ollama model.\n\nOkay, so the very first thing I need to establish is how this workflow will be initiated. The prompt explicitly states it should \"begin with a Chat Trigger.\" This tells me I'll need a specific node to handle incoming chat messages.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding the **Chat Trigger** node. Looking at the provided JSON, its `type` is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is 1. This node type is perfect because it's specifically designed to listen for and process conversational inputs, which is exactly what a chat-based workflow needs as its entry point. For its initial setup, the `parameters` are empty, meaning I'd just drop it onto the canvas, and it would default to its standard behavior, ready to receive messages. It would automatically generate a unique `webhookId` behind the scenes, which is how external chat platforms would communicate with it. Its position `[660, 340]` just indicates where it sits visually on the canvas.\n\nNext, the prompt says this trigger should \"flow into a Basic LLM Chain.\" This immediately tells me what the next step in the workflow should be. After receiving a chat message, I want to process it using an AI model, and n8n's Langchain integration provides a dedicated node for this.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `Chat Trigger` to a **Basic LLM Chain** node. Its `type` is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chainLlm` and its `typeVersion` is 1.3. This node is essentially a wrapper for common LLM operations; it takes input, passes it to a connected language model, and then outputs the model's response. It's a fundamental building block for any AI-powered workflow. For its configuration, like the Chat Trigger, its `parameters` are also empty here, meaning it will use its default settings, simply orchestrating the language model it's connected to. Visually, it's placed right after the trigger at `[880, 340]`.\n\nNow, the `Basic LLM Chain` can't do anything on its own; it needs a language model to perform its magic. The prompt specifically states that the chain should be \"powered by an Ollama Chat Model configured to use 'llama3.2:latest'.\" This tells me exactly which AI model node to bring in and how to set it up.\n\nSo, the next node I'd add would be the **Ollama Chat Model**. Its `type` is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatOllama` and its `typeVersion` is 1. This is the ideal choice because it's built to interface directly with an Ollama instance, allowing us to leverage locally hosted or accessible models. The crucial configuration here is within its `parameters`: the `model` field is set to `\"llama3.2:latest\"`. This is exactly what the prompt asked for, ensuring that our AI chain uses that specific version of the Llama model. The `options` are empty, meaning default settings for things like temperature or max tokens. It also has `credentials` linked, specifically `ollamaApi`, which points to a credential named \"Local Ollama service.\" This credential would contain the necessary details to connect to the actual Ollama server, like its API endpoint. It's positioned at `[900, 560]`, a bit below the main flow, which is common for service nodes that provide functionality to other nodes.\n\nFinally, I need to make the connections between these nodes. The `Chat Trigger` needs to send its output, the user's message, into the `Basic LLM Chain`. So, I'd connect the `main` output of the `Chat Trigger` to the `main` input of the `Basic LLM Chain`. This ensures that whatever text comes in via chat is passed directly to the chain for processing.\n\nThen, and this is critical, the `Basic LLM Chain` needs to know *which* language model to use. This is where the `Ollama Chat Model` comes in. I'd connect the `Ollama Chat Model`'s output, specifically its `ai_languageModel` output type, to the `ai_languageModel` input of the `Basic LLM Chain`. This connection tells the chain, \"Hey, when you need an AI model, use this Ollama model I'm providing here.\" It's not a standard data flow; it's more like providing a service or an instance of a class.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it.

Starting the Workflow: The Trigger Node**\n\nThe very first thing the prompt specifies is \"begins with a manual trigger node.\" This immediately tells me I need a way to kick off the workflow on demand, perhaps when I'm testing it or simply want to run it myself.\n\n* **Node Type:** I'd search for a \"Manual Trigger\" node. This is specifically designed for exactly this purpose \u2013 to initiate a workflow execution when someone clicks a button (like \"Test workflow\" in the n8n UI).\n* **Why this node?** It's the simplest and most direct way to get a workflow started without relying on external events like webhooks or schedules.\n* **Configuration:** Looking at the JSON, this node is of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. Version 1 is a standard and robust version for this node. It generally doesn't require any specific configuration parameters, as its purpose is purely to provide a manual start button.

The First Gmail Operation**\n\nNext, the prompt says \"executes two chained Gmail 'get' operations.\" So, after my manual trigger, I need to perform a Gmail operation.\n\n* **Node Type:** I'll need a \"Gmail\" node. This node is specifically designed to interact with the Google Gmail API.\n* **Why this node?** It provides pre-built functionality for common Gmail actions, including \"get\" operations, which is what's required.\n* **Connecting it:** I'll connect the output of my \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" (manual trigger) node to the input of this new Gmail node. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, the workflow proceeds to this Gmail operation.\n* **Configuration:**\n * The JSON shows `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\"` and `typeVersion: 2.1`. This indicates I'm using version 2.1 of the Gmail node, which is likely a stable and feature-rich version.\n * Crucially, the prompt specifies a \"'get' operation.\" So, I would set the `operation` parameter of this node to `\"get\"`. This tells the node to retrieve data from Gmail.\n * This node would also require authentication credentials (like an OAuth 2.0 API key or a service account) to connect to a specific Gmail account. I would configure those credentials in the node's settings, allowing it to access the necessary mailbox, but of course, I wouldn't specify any actual sensitive values here.\n * I'd give it a descriptive name, \"Gmail\", as seen in the JSON. This is a good default for the first instance.\n\n**3. The Second Chained Gmail Operation**\n\nThe prompt explicitly states \"two chained Gmail 'get' operations.\" This means after the first Gmail operation completes, another one should immediately follow.\n\n* **Node Type:** I'll need *another* \"Gmail\" node.\n* **Why this node?** Same reason as before \u2013 to interact with the Gmail API and perform a 'get' operation.\n* **Connecting it:** To make it \"chained,\" I'll connect the output of my *first* \"Gmail\" node to the input of this *second* \"Gmail\" node. This ensures sequential execution: the second Gmail node will only run after the first one has successfully finished its task.\n* **Configuration:**\n * Again, the JSON shows `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\"` and `typeVersion: 2.1`, keeping consistency with the first Gmail node.\n * Its `operation` parameter also needs to be set to `\"get\"` to fulfill the prompt's requirement.\n * Like the first, this node would also need to be configured with the appropriate Gmail credentials.\n * The JSON shows an empty string for the `name` property for this node. In the n8n UI, if I add a second node of the same type and the first is named \"Gmail\", n8n would typically auto-assign a name like \"Gmail1\" to this subsequent node. An empty name in the JSON suggests this kind of auto-assignment by the system.\n\n**Workflow Flow Summary:**\n\nSo, to summarize the connections: The \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node starts. Its output then triggers the first \"Gmail\" node, which performs a 'get' operation. Once that first \"Gmail\" node finishes, its output triggers the second \"Gmail\" node, which also performs a 'get' operation.

The JSON confirms this choice with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.cron\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'd drag out a Cron node as my starting point. To make it trigger daily at 9 AM, I'd go into its parameters. The JSON shows `triggerTimes: {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 9}]}`. This means I'd simply set the \"Hour\" field to `9`. Since no minute or specific day of the week is mentioned, it will automatically default to running at 9 AM every day, which matches the requirement perfectly.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next logical step, according to the prompt, is to \"fetch the current weather for Berlin using OpenWeatherMap\". This immediately suggests using a dedicated integration for OpenWeatherMap. Fortunately, n8n has one. I'd look for an \"OpenWeatherMap\" node, and indeed, the JSON includes one with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is ideal because it handles the API calls and data parsing for me, rather than having to use a generic HTTP Request node.\n\nI'd connect the \"Cron\" node's main output to the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node's input. The Cron node essentially just sends a signal to the OpenWeatherMap node to execute. For the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node's configuration, the prompt specifies \"for Berlin\". The JSON confirms this parameter with `parameters: {\"cityName\": \"berlin\"}`. So, I would simply enter \"berlin\" into the \"City Name\" field in the node's settings. Crucially, to make this node work, it needs to authenticate with the OpenWeatherMap service. The JSON indicates `credentials: {\"openWeatherMapApi\": \"owm\"}`. This means I would need to have an OpenWeatherMap API key configured in n8n's credentials and select it here. Without that, the node wouldn't be able to retrieve any weather data.\n\nFinally, the prompt says, \"and then sends a Spontit notification titled 'Today's Weather Update' containing the temperature from the weather data.\" This clearly points to a notification service. The JSON provides a \"Spontit\" node, with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.spontit\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. Spontit is a great choice for sending push notifications, fitting the requirement directly.\n\nI'd connect the main output of the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node to the input of the \"Spontit\" node. The \"OpenWeatherMap\" node will output a JSON object containing all the weather details, which the \"Spontit\" node will then use to construct the notification.\n\nFor the \"Spontit\" node's configuration, two main things are needed: the title and the content. The prompt asks for a title \"Today's Weather Update\". The JSON reflects this under `additionalFields: {\"pushTitle\": \"Today's Weather Update\"}`. I'd typically find a \"Push Title\" or similar field in the Spontit node's parameters and enter \"Today's Weather Update\" there.\n\nFor the notification content, it needs to contain the temperature. This means I need to extract the temperature from the data provided by the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node. The JSON shows the `content` parameter using an expression: `content\": \"=Hey! The temperature outside is {{$node[\\\"OpenWeatherMap\\\"].json[\\\"main\\\"][\\\"temp\\\"]}}\\u00b0C.\"`. This is how I'd dynamically pull the temperature. I'd switch the \"Content\" field in the Spontit node to expression mode. Then, I would construct the message: I'd start with some static text like \"Hey! The temperature outside is \", then use the expression `{{$node[\"OpenWeatherMap\"].json[\"main\"][\"temp\"]}}` to specifically access the temperature value (which would be located under the `main` object and `temp` key in the OpenWeatherMap node's output JSON), and finally, I'd add \"\u00b0C.\" for context. Just like the OpenWeatherMap node, the Spontit node also requires credentials. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"spontitApi\": \"spontit\"}`. I would need to set up a Spontit API key credential in n8n and select it for this node to enable it to send the push notification. This completes the entire workflow, fulfilling all the requirements step by step." } { "prompt": "Design an n8n workflow that retrieves a single email from Gmail containing a JSON file attachment, then converts the data within that JSON file into a CSV spreadsheet named 'users_spreadsheet.csv'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"limit\": 1, \"operation\": \"getAll\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [620, 140]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {\"fileName\": \"users_spreadsheet.csv\"}, \"operation\": \"toFile\", \"fileFormat\": \"csv\"}, \"name\": \"write spreadsheet file\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [980, 140]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"move binary data \", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [800, 140]}, {\"parameters\": {\"width\": 320, \"height\": 80, \"content\": \"## JSON file > Sheets\"}, \"name\": \"Note6\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.stickyNote\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [200, 160]}], \"connections\": {\"Gmail\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"move binary data \", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"move binary data \": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"write spreadsheet file\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this n8n workflow. The goal is clear: grab a specific email from Gmail that has a JSON file attached, then take the data *from* that JSON file and convert it into a CSV file named 'users_spreadsheet.csv'.\n\nFirst things first, how do we get the email? We need a way to connect to Gmail and fetch messages. The most straightforward node for that is obviously the Gmail node.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a **Gmail** node (`n8n-nodes-base.gmail`, `typeVersion: 1`). This is our entry point to the email system.\nLooking at the requirements, we need to retrieve a \"single email\". So, in the Gmail node's parameters, I'd set the `operation` to `getAll` to make sure we're looking for emails, and then crucially, I'd set the `limit` to `1`. This ensures we only process one email, just as requested. We wouldn't want to accidentally grab and process multiple emails if only one is relevant. It also has a note \"Get email with JSON file\" associated with it, which is good for documenting its purpose right in the flow. Of course, for this to work, it needs to be authenticated, so `gmailOAuth2` credentials would be configured there. That's essential for it to connect to any Gmail account.\n\nNow, once we get the email, it's going to contain the email body and, importantly for us, attachments. The specific requirement is to process a *JSON file attachment*. The Gmail node will output this attachment as binary data.\n\nThe next node in the workflow is a **move binary data** node (`n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData`, `typeVersion: 1`). This node is connected directly from the Gmail node's `main` output. Why `move binary data` here? Well, the Gmail node outputs a lot of information \u2013 email content, sender, subject, and also any attachments as binary data. This `move binary data` node acts as a kind of selector or passthrough for binary data. It's often used when you want to ensure a specific piece of binary data (like our JSON file attachment) is the primary binary output passed along the workflow. In this case, since the `parameters.options` is empty, it seems to be just forwarding the main binary output from the Gmail node (which would be the attachment we're interested in) to the next step. It's a way to explicitly hand off the binary file content.\n\nNow we have the binary JSON file. The ultimate goal is to convert the *data within* that JSON file into a CSV spreadsheet. This implies that we need to take the structured data that the JSON represents (like an array of user objects) and transform it into rows and columns in a CSV.\n\nThe next node in the workflow is the **write spreadsheet file** node (`n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile`, `typeVersion: 1`). This is where the conversion magic is supposed to happen. It's connected directly from the `move binary data` node's `main` output. This node is perfect for creating spreadsheet files.\nLooking at its configuration, the `operation` is set to `toFile`, which is exactly what we want \u2013 creating a new file. The `fileFormat` is set to `csv`, again, matching our requirement precisely. And the `fileName` is specified as `users_spreadsheet.csv`, which is the exact name requested in the prompt.\n\nHere's a small thought that comes to mind: for the `spreadsheetFile` node to correctly convert the *data within* a JSON file to CSV, it usually expects the JSON data to be *parsed* into a structured format (like an array of objects) *before* it gets to this node. The `move binary data` node just passes the raw binary file. So, implicitly, this setup assumes that the `spreadsheetFile` node is capable of taking a binary JSON file as input, parsing it internally, and then converting its contents into CSV. While some nodes have such capabilities, typically, I'd expect an explicit \"JSON\" node or \"Read Binary File\" node followed by a \"JSON to Table\" type of conversion before feeding it into a `spreadsheetFile` node for a clean conversion of *data*. However, following the provided JSON, the workflow implies that the `spreadsheetFile` node, given a binary JSON input and told to output CSV, handles the parsing and conversion itself. So, it's designed to read the JSON data from the binary input stream and lay it out into a CSV format.\n\nFinally, there's a **Note6** node (`n8n-nodes-base.stickyNote`, `typeVersion: 1`). This is simply a visual aid within the workflow, with content \"## JSON file > Sheets\". It helps anyone looking at the workflow quickly understand the purpose of this particular section, which is about transforming JSON data into a spreadsheet format. It's not an active processing node, just documentation.\n\nSo, in summary, the workflow starts by getting the email and its JSON attachment, then ensures that binary attachment data is correctly forwarded, and finally, attempts to convert that binary JSON data directly into a CSV file with the specified name." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Search DB\". When triggered, it should set a field named \"response\" with the static value \"10 results found\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Search DB\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [640, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"10 results found\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [860, 380]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is pretty clear: we need a workflow named \"Search DB\" that, when triggered, sets a specific field called \"response\" to a static string value: \"10 results found\". Simple enough, a good starting point for understanding basic n8n operations.\n\nFirst off, every workflow needs a starting point, something to kick it off. Since the requirement is \"When triggered,\" we'll need a trigger node. Looking at the JSON, I see an `Execute Workflow Trigger` node. This is a very common choice for simple workflows that might be run manually during development or called from another workflow. It provides an immediate starting item without requiring an external event like a webhook or a schedule.\n\nSo, the first node I'd lay down on the canvas is the `Execute Workflow Trigger` node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is 1. This node is perfect because it just starts the workflow and passes a single, empty item down the line, which is exactly what we need as a starting point for our subsequent operations. No specific parameters are needed for this node, as its default behavior of triggering is exactly what we want. It just acts as the entry point. Its position is set at `[640, 380]`, which is pretty central, a good place to start visually.\n\nNow that we have our workflow triggered, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"set a field named 'response' with the static value '10 results found'\". For this kind of data manipulation \u2013 specifically, adding or modifying fields on an item \u2013 the `Set` node is the go-to. In the JSON, I see a node named \"Edit Fields\" which has the type `n8n-nodes-base.set`. This confirms my choice; the `Set` node (often aliased as \"Edit Fields\" or similar in UI) is precisely what's needed here.\n\nSo, the next logical step is to connect the `Execute Workflow Trigger`'s output to the input of this `Set` node. The `connections` object in the JSON clearly shows `\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`, which means the main output of the trigger node feeds directly into the main input of the `Edit Fields` node. This ensures that whatever item (in this case, the single, empty item generated by the trigger) is passed along to the `Set` node for modification.\n\nNow, let's configure this `Edit Fields` node. The goal is to set a field named \"response\" to \"10 results found\".\n* This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is 3.4. For setting a static value like this, any `typeVersion` of the `Set` node that supports basic assignments would likely work. Version 3.4 is fairly recent and robust for these kinds of operations.\n* Looking at its `parameters`, I see `assignments`, which is exactly where we define what fields to set.\n* Inside `assignments`, there's an array with one entry. This entry defines our field:\n * `name`: \"response\" - This matches the exact field name specified in the user prompt.\n * `value`: \"10 results found\" - This is the static string value we need to assign, again matching the prompt perfectly.\n * `type`: \"string\" - This is correctly identified as a string type, which is appropriate for the value \"10 results found\".\n* The `options` are empty, meaning no special settings like \"Keep Only Set\" or \"Merge Data\" are applied, which is fine for this simple scenario where we're just adding a new field.\nThe node is positioned at `[860, 380]`, placed logically to the right of the trigger node, showing a nice left-to-right flow.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it! The workflow starts with the `Execute Workflow Trigger`, passes an item to the `Edit Fields` node, which then adds the \"response\" field with the specified static value to that item. The workflow fulfills all the requirements laid out in the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow using Bubble nodes to first create a 'Doc' named 'Bubble', then update that same record to 'Bubble node', and finally retrieve its details.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"typeName\": \"Doc\", \"operation\": \"create\", \"properties\": {\"property\": [{\"key\": \"Name\", \"value\": \"Bubble\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Bubble\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.bubble\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 280]}, {\"parameters\": {\"objectId\": \"={{$json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\", \"typeName\": \"={{$node[\\\"Bubble\\\"].parameter[\\\"typeName\\\"]}}\", \"operation\": \"update\", \"properties\": {\"property\": [{\"key\": \"Name\", \"value\": \"Bubble node\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Bubble1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.bubble\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 280]}, {\"parameters\": {\"objectId\": \"={{$node[\\\"Bubble\\\"].json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\", \"typeName\": \"={{$node[\\\"Bubble\\\"].parameter[\\\"typeName\\\"]}}\"}, \"name\": \"Bubble2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.bubble\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [850, 280]}], \"connections\": {\"Bubble\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Bubble1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Bubble1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Bubble2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow built. The request is pretty clear: we need to interact with Bubble to create a new \"Doc\" record, then immediately update that same record, and finally, retrieve its details to confirm everything worked. This sounds like a perfect use case for a sequence of Bubble nodes.\n\nFirst things first, we need to *create* the record. Looking at the requirements, we're creating a \"Doc\" named \"Bubble\". The `Bubble` node type is obviously what we need here, as it's designed specifically for interacting with Bubble's Data API. So, I'll start by dragging out a `Bubble` node.\n\nThis will be our initial node, and I'll call it simply \"Bubble\" to reflect its primary role in creating the initial record. For its configuration, since we're creating a record, the `operation` parameter must be set to `create`. The `typeName` parameter, which specifies the type of data we're interacting with in Bubble, needs to be \"Doc\" as per the prompt. And for the initial data, we need to set a `property`. The prompt says \"named 'Bubble'\", so I'll add a property with the `key` \"Name\" and the `value` \"Bubble\". This will ensure our new record has the correct initial name. Of course, this node, like all Bubble nodes in this workflow, will need to be configured with the appropriate Bubble API credentials to connect to our Bubble application. The `typeVersion` for this node is `1`, which is standard and indicates it's using a particular version of the node's internal logic.\n\nNext, after creating the record, the prompt asks us to *update* that same record. This means we need another `Bubble` node. I'll connect this new node directly from the first \"Bubble\" node's main output. This ensures that the update operation only runs *after* the creation operation has successfully completed and provided us with the necessary information about the newly created record. I'll name this second node \"Bubble1\".\n\nFor \"Bubble1\", the `operation` will clearly be `update`. Now, here's the crucial part: how do we tell this node *which* record to update? We need the ID of the record that was just created by the previous \"Bubble\" node. n8n's expression syntax is perfect for this. I'll set the `objectId` parameter to an expression that references the output of the previous node. Specifically, it will be `={{$json[\"id\"]}}`. This expression tells n8n to look at the data output by the preceding node (which would be the \"Bubble\" node), find the `id` field within that data, and use it as the `objectId` for this update operation. This is really efficient because it dynamically passes the ID without any manual intervention. I also need to make sure the `typeName` is consistent, so I'll set it dynamically as well, referencing the type name from the first node: `={{$node[\"Bubble\"].parameter[\"typeName\"]}}`. This makes the workflow more robust if we ever decide to change the type name in the first node. Finally, for the update itself, the prompt states we need to change its name to \"Bubble node\". So, I'll add another `property` with `key` \"Name\" and `value` \"Bubble node\". Again, this node requires the same Bubble API credentials, and its `typeVersion` is also `1`.\n\nAnd for the final step, we need to *retrieve* the details of that same record to verify the update. This, again, calls for another `Bubble` node. I'll connect this node, named \"Bubble2\", from the \"Bubble1\" node's main output. This chaining ensures that the retrieval only happens after the record has been created *and* updated.\n\nFor \"Bubble2\", the `operation` isn't explicitly set in the JSON, but when you provide an `objectId` and a `typeName` without specifying other operations like `create` or `update`, the `Bubble` node defaults to a `get` operation, which is exactly what we need to retrieve details. So, the `operation` parameter can be left at its default. Similar to the update node, we need to specify *which* record to retrieve. Again, we'll use an expression for the `objectId`, but this time, it's actually referencing the `id` from the *initial* \"Bubble\" node's output: `={{$node[\"Bubble\"].json[\"id\"]}}`. It's important to use the ID from the creation step because that's the canonical ID of the record throughout its lifecycle. The `typeName` will also be referenced from the first \"Bubble\" node's parameter: `={{$node[\"Bubble\"].parameter[\"typeName\"]}}`. This ensures we're looking up the correct type of record. Once more, Bubble API credentials are required here, and the `typeVersion` is `1`.\n\nThis sequence of nodes\u2014create, then update, then retrieve\u2014covers all aspects of the user's request, ensuring that the data flows correctly from one step to the next by using dynamic expressions to pass the record's ID and type name. This makes the workflow robust and ensures we're always operating on the correct, updated record." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named \"My workflow\".

When I approach building a new workflow, the very first thing I consider is \"how does this thing start?\" What's the trigger?\n\nLooking at the user prompt, it clearly states, \"It should start with a manual trigger.\" This makes my initial node choice very straightforward. I'm going to reach for the `Manual Trigger` node.\n\nSo, my first step is to place a `Manual Trigger` node on the canvas.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nWhy this node? It's the perfect fit for workflows that need to be initiated on demand, like for testing or when you want to explicitly kick off a process yourself. It doesn't require any incoming data or external events to start. For its configuration, the JSON shows `parameters: {}`, which is typical for a manual trigger; there aren't many settings to adjust here beyond its basic \"start\" function. Its default name, \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", is intuitive and aligns with its purpose. I'm using `typeVersion 1` as it's the standard and stable version for this node, and for a simple trigger, I don't expect behavioral changes with other versions.\n\nNow that I have my starting point, I need to figure out what happens next. The prompt specifies, \"and connect to a Baserow node configured to create data.\" This gives me my second node and its primary action.\n\nI'll drag out a `Baserow` node and connect it directly from the `Manual Trigger` node. This means that as soon as I manually activate the workflow, the `Baserow` node will receive an item and begin its operation.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.baserow`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nWhy the `Baserow` node? Well, because the goal is to interact with Baserow, it's the dedicated integration node for that service. It abstracts away the complexity of the Baserow API, providing a clean interface for common operations.\n\nNow, let's think about its configuration. The prompt is quite specific: \"configured to create data.\" This directly translates to setting the `operation` parameter within the `Baserow` node.\n* **Parameters:** `{\"operation\": \"create\"}`. This is crucial. It tells the node exactly what action to perform on the Baserow database \u2013 in this case, adding new records. Without this, the node wouldn't know if it should read, update, or delete data.\n\nThe node's name is simply \"Baserow\", which is a perfectly descriptive default. For `typeVersion 1`, I'd expect the \"create\" operation to be fully supported, so no concerns there.\n\nNext, every node that interacts with an external service usually requires authentication. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"baserowApi\": {\"id\": \"Wo3MKVFqK5AViedz\", \"name\": \"Baserow account\"}}`. This indicates that a Baserow API credential, which would hold the actual API key and potentially the base URL for the Baserow instance, needs to be linked to this node. When designing, I'd make a mental note that this credential must exist and be properly configured in the n8n instance for the workflow to successfully interact with Baserow. I wouldn't specify any sensitive details here, just note that an API key would be provided in that associated credential.\n\nFinally, I need to ensure the connection between the two nodes is correctly defined.\nThe `connections` object in the JSON clearly states: `\"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Baserow\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This confirms that the primary output (`main` connection type) of the `Manual Trigger` node (\"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\") flows directly into the primary input (`main` connection type, `index 0`) of the `Baserow` node. This creates a simple, linear flow as requested.\n\nOne last check on the overall workflow properties:\n* The `name` is \"My workflow\", matching the prompt.\n* Crucially, `active: false`. The prompt explicitly asks for an \"inactive\" workflow. Setting this property to `false` ensures that the workflow won't run automatically until it's manually activated in the n8n UI, which is exactly what's required.\n* The `settings` for `executionOrder: v1` are standard and don't require any special design consideration for this simple flow.\n\nSo, to recap: Start with a manual trigger, connect it directly to a Baserow node, and configure that Baserow node to create data. Make sure it's inactive by default. This covers all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a POST Webhook node (path `23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201`) and connects it directly to a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 460]}, {\"parameters\": {\"httpMethod\": \"POST\", \"path\": \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 460]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed and built. The request is quite specific: a workflow starting with a POST Webhook and leading straight into a Set node. This sounds like a straightforward setup, often used as a starting point for more complex processes where an external system needs to trigger something in n8n.\n\nFirst things first, to receive external data, we'll definitely need a Webhook node. The prompt is clear on that. So, I'll go ahead and add that as our initial trigger.\n\nThis would be a `Webhook` node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 1`. It's the perfect choice for starting a workflow based on an incoming HTTP request.\n\nNow, for configuring this Webhook node, the prompt specified a few crucial details. It needs to be a `POST` method, so I'll set the `httpMethod` parameter to \"POST\". This means it will only respond to HTTP POST requests. The `path` is also explicitly given as `23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201`. This unique path is essential for creating the specific endpoint URL that external systems will call. I also see a `webhookId` parameter in the JSON, which mirrors this path. It acts as the internal identifier for this specific webhook configuration within n8n. Beyond that, the JSON doesn't show any special `options` configured for the webhook, so it seems like a basic setup, which is fine for its purpose as an entry point. Its position on the canvas is noted as `[460, 460]`, which is just for layout.\n\nNext, the prompt states that this Webhook node should connect directly to a Set node. A `Set` node is incredibly versatile. It's ideal for manipulating data, whether that's adding new fields, modifying existing ones, or even removing data from the incoming items. In this particular setup, the JSON shows its `options` parameter as empty, which means it's not actually performing any data transformations in its current configuration. It's essentially acting as a pass-through node, which can be useful for simply receiving data and preparing for future steps, or perhaps it's a placeholder for data manipulation that will be added later.\n\nSo, I'll add a `Set` node. This will be `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 1`. Its position is `[720, 460]`, which places it to the right of the Webhook node, making for a clear visual flow.\n\nNow, for the crucial part: connecting these two nodes. The prompt explicitly says \"connects it directly.\" Looking at the `connections` object in the JSON, it confirms this. The `Webhook` node's `main` output should lead to the `Set` node's `main` input. This is the standard way data flows in n8n \u2013 the `main` output of one node passes its processed items to the `main` input of the next. So, when the Webhook receives data, it will immediately forward that data as items to the Set node. The `index: 0` simply refers to the first (and usually only) input slot of the Set node.\n\nFinally, I see some `pinData` associated with the Webhook node in the provided JSON. This isn't part of the workflow *design* or *configuration* itself, but rather example data that the node received during a test execution. It includes generic `headers` (like `host`, `content-length`, `content-type`), `params`, `query` parameters, and a `body`. The `body` here is shown as `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`, which is just example JSON data that the webhook received. It also indicates the `webhookUrl` (which would point to the n8n instance and the configured path, e.g., `http:\/\/localhost:5678\/webhook-test\/23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201`) and `executionMode: \"test\"`. This `pinData` is incredibly useful for debugging and understanding what kind of input the webhook expects and receives, but it doesn't dictate the node's setup, just illustrates its typical input.\n\nSo, to summarize, the design is a Webhook node configured to listen for POST requests at a specific path, directly feeding any incoming data into a Set node, which currently acts as a pass-through. Simple, clean, and perfectly aligns with the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"NDV search bugs (introduced by schema view?)\" that starts with a manual trigger, connects to a \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node set to \"getAllPeople\", and finally links to an \"Edit Fields\" (Set) node.

The prompt asks for a workflow named \"NDV search bugs (introduced by schema view?)\". That's a pretty specific name, so I'll make sure to use it.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, something to kick it off. The prompt explicitly says it \"starts with a manual trigger\". That's straightforward. So, I'll add a **Manual Trigger** node. This node type, `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, version `1`, is perfect because it allows the workflow to be run manually, which is exactly what we need for testing or on-demand execution. I'll place it at the beginning of our workflow canvas. I don't need to configure anything specific on it; its default behavior of triggering when clicked is sufficient.\n\nNext, the prompt states it connects to a \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node set to \"getAllPeople\". This sounds like a custom or training-specific node designed to interact with a simulated customer database. I'll need to add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`. Looking at the JSON, it uses `typeVersion: 1`. This specific node type seems to be designed for training purposes, simulating a customer data source.\n\nNow, how should I configure this \"Customer Datastore\" node? The prompt specifically says it should be set to \"getAllPeople\". So, I'll look for an operation parameter. Indeed, the JSON shows `{\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}`. This tells the node to retrieve all available customer records from this simulated datastore. This makes sense for a \"search bugs\" scenario, as you'd typically want to fetch a collection of data to inspect.\n\nThe prompt also specifies that this \"Customer Datastore\" node should \"output five sample customer records, each with fields for ID, name, email, notes, country, and created date.\" While the node itself, when configured with \"getAllPeople,\" is responsible for generating this output, I see in the `pinData` section of the JSON that it actually *defines* the sample output for this node. This is very useful for development and testing, ensuring predictable data. So, when this \"Customer Datastore\" node runs, it will produce five separate items. Each item will have the specified fields: `id`, `name`, `email`, `notes`, `country`, and `created`. For example, one record is for \"Jay Gatsby\" with an ID, email, notes, country \"US\", and a created date. Another is \"Jos\\u00e9 Arcadio Buend\\u00eda\" from \"CO\", and so on. This directly fulfills the output requirement.\n\nFinally, the prompt says the workflow \"finally links to an 'Edit Fields' (Set) node.\" This is a common node used for manipulating data that passes through the workflow. The node type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is `3.4`.\n\nWhen configuring a Set node, its primary purpose is to add, remove, or modify fields on incoming items. The prompt doesn't specify any particular field manipulations, just that it should link to it. Looking at the JSON for the \"Edit Fields\" node's parameters, I see `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": []}, \"includeOtherFields\": true, \"options\": {}}`.\nThe `assignments` array is empty, meaning no new fields are being added, and no existing fields are being modified or removed.\nHowever, `includeOtherFields` is set to `true`. This is an important detail. It means that while the Set node isn't *changing* any data explicitly, it will *pass through* all the incoming fields from the previous \"Customer Datastore\" node. If `includeOtherFields` were `false`, and `assignments` were empty, the node would output no data at all, effectively stopping the flow of information. But since it's `true`, it simply acts as a passthrough, which is often used as a final viewing stage or a placeholder for future transformations. For a \"search bugs\" workflow, passing all data through to inspect it makes perfect sense.\n\nNow, let's connect these nodes.\nThe \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" (Manual Trigger) node needs to send its output to the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the trigger to the `main` input of the Customer Datastore node.\nThen, the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node, which outputs the five customer records, needs to send its data to the \"Edit Fields\" node. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the Customer Datastore node to the `main` input of the \"Edit Fields\" node.\n\nThe `connections` section in the JSON confirms this:\n- `\"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`\n- `\"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`\n\nThis structure creates a linear workflow: trigger -> fetch data -> (pass through) view data. It's a very common pattern for data retrieval and initial inspection. The Set node at the end acts like a final collection point where one could inspect the data in the editor's output pane." } { "prompt": "Generate an N8n workflow: A manual trigger connected to an AWS Lambda node.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need a workflow that starts when someone manually triggers it, and then it should invoke an AWS Lambda function.\n\nSo, first things first, every workflow needs a starting point. How do we want this workflow to begin? The prompt specifies \"A manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me what my first node should be.\n\nI'll add a **Manual Trigger** node. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it allows the user to click an \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n interface to start the process. It doesn't require any incoming data or external events; it's purely user-initiated, which aligns perfectly with the requirement. For this node, there typically aren't any specific parameters to configure beyond its basic existence, which the JSON confirms by showing an empty `parameters` object. Its position on the canvas, `[250, 300]`, is just for visual layout.\n\nAlright, so we have our trigger. What's the next step? The prompt says it should be \"connected to an AWS Lambda node\" and \"call `arn:aws:lambda:ap-south-1:100558637562:function:hello-world-sample` using `amudhan-aws` credentials.\" This gives us the exact type of the next node and how it needs to be configured.\n\nSo, from the output of our `On clicking 'execute'` (the Manual Trigger node), we need to connect it to an **AWS Lambda** node. This node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.awsLambda` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the dedicated n8n node for interacting with AWS Lambda services, which is exactly what we need to invoke a function. The connection between these two nodes, as specified in the `connections` object, is a `main` connection. This means that when the Manual Trigger executes, it will simply pass control (and potentially any default data from the trigger) to the AWS Lambda node to execute next.\n\nNow, let's configure this AWS Lambda node. The most crucial parameter here is `function`. The prompt explicitly provides the full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the function to be invoked: `arn:aws:lambda:ap-south-1:100558637562:function:hello-world-sample`. So, I'll set the `function` parameter to this specific ARN. This tells the n8n node exactly which Lambda function it needs to call in AWS.\n\nNext up, security and authentication. To call an AWS Lambda function, n8n needs appropriate AWS credentials. The prompt states it should use `amudhan-aws` credentials. So, under the `credentials` property for this AWS Lambda node, I'll specify that it should use the pre-configured AWS credential entry named `amudhan-aws`. This credential entry would contain the necessary access keys or IAM role information that allows n8n to authenticate with AWS and perform the `lambda:InvokeFunction` action. It's vital that these credentials have the correct permissions for the specified Lambda function.\n\nAnd that's it. We have our manual trigger initiating the workflow, and then it seamlessly hands off to the AWS Lambda node, which is correctly configured with the target function's ARN and the necessary AWS credentials to make the call. The workflow is sequential and straightforward, perfectly fulfilling the user's requirements. Its position `[450, 300]` on the canvas simply places it to the right of the trigger." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a POST Webhook configured to receive a JSON body (e.g., `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`).

The prompt is pretty clear: we need a workflow that starts with a Webhook, specifically a POST Webhook, and then connects to a Set node. This sounds like a common pattern for receiving external data and then preparing it for further processing.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need is a node that can *receive* external HTTP requests. Looking at the requirements, a \"Webhook\" node is the obvious choice. It's purpose-built for this kind of task.\n\nI'll start by adding a **Webhook node**.\n* Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and I'll use `typeVersion: 1`. This is the standard Webhook node that's been around for a while, and it's perfectly capable of handling what we need.\n* Now, for configuring this Webhook node, the prompt specifies it should be a \"POST Webhook.\" So, I need to make sure its `httpMethod` parameter is set to \"POST\". This ensures it will only trigger when it receives an HTTP POST request, which is exactly what we want for receiving a JSON body.\n* Next, there's the `path`. The JSON shows a specific ID here, like a long string of characters. This is crucial because it forms part of the unique URL for this webhook. n8n typically generates a unique path for each webhook node, or you can specify a custom one. This path, combined with your n8n instance's base URL, creates the full endpoint where the JSON body will be sent.\n* The `options` for this node are currently empty. This means we're not setting any specific response options, authentication, or other advanced configurations at this point, which is fine for a basic setup.\n* I'd place this node on the left side of my canvas, as it's the entry point of the workflow. The JSON places it at coordinates `[460, 460]`.\n\nOnce the Webhook node is in place and configured to receive POST requests, the prompt then states: \"Connect this Webhook node to a Set node.\" This tells me what the next step in the data flow should be.\n\nI'll add a **Set node** next.\n* Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and again, `typeVersion: 1`. The Set node is incredibly versatile. It allows you to add, modify, or remove fields from the data that passes through it. Even if we're not explicitly modifying anything right now, it's a good intermediate step, perhaps as a placeholder for future data transformations or just to clearly delineate a stage where data processing might begin.\n* Looking at its parameters, the `options` object is empty. This means, as configured, this Set node isn't actually setting any new values or transforming the data in any specific way yet. It will simply receive the data from the Webhook node and pass it along as is. This is a very common starting point before deciding on specific data manipulation.\n* I'll position it to the right of the Webhook node to visually represent the flow of data. The JSON shows `[720, 460]`.\n\nFinally, I need to establish the connection between these two nodes. The prompt explicitly says to \"Connect this Webhook node to a Set node.\"\n* In n8n, you typically connect the *output* of one node to the *input* of the next. For the Webhook node, its primary output is the data it receives. For the Set node, its primary input is where it expects data to operate on.\n* The `connections` object in the JSON confirms this: the `main` output of the `Webhook` node is connected to the `main` input of the `Set` node. This means whatever JSON body the Webhook receives (like the example `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}` from the `pinData`), it will hand that directly over to the Set node for further processing. This is a straightforward, direct data flow." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that executes a command outputting `{\\\"value1\\\": true, \\\"value2\\\": 1}`.

The core requirements are to execute a command that outputs a specific JSON string, then parse that output using a Function node, and finally, use an IF node to check a value from the *original* command output.\n\nFirst, I need a way to actually run the command. Looking at the n8n nodes, the most suitable one for this is clearly the **Execute Command** node. This is a fundamental node for interacting with the system's shell.\n\nSo, I'll place the **Execute Command** node first. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.executeCommand`, and the JSON specifies `typeVersion: 1`. I need to configure it to output that exact JSON string: `{\"value1\": true, \"value2\": 1}`. The simplest way to do that is using the `echo` command.\n\nFor its `command` parameter, I'll set it to `echo \"{ \\\"value1\\\": true, \\\"value2\\\": 1 }\"`. I'm careful with the double quotes inside the JSON string itself, escaping them with backslashes so they are correctly interpreted by the shell. This node will execute, and its `stdout` will contain the desired JSON string. This is going to be my starting point, the raw data that subsequent nodes will work with.\n\nNow, the prompt says to \"parse the command's `stdout` using a Function node.\" This suggests a separate path for data transformation. A Function node is perfect for this because it allows me to write custom JavaScript code to manipulate the incoming data.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Function** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.functionItem`, and it's also `typeVersion: 1`. This node should receive the output from the \"Execute Command\" node. I'll connect the `main` output of \"Execute Command\" to the `main` input of this new Function node.\n\nInside this Function node, I need to parse the JSON string that comes from the \"Execute Command\" node's `stdout`. The input data to a Function node is typically available as an `item` object. The `stdout` from the previous node will be on `item.stdout`. So, I'll set its `functionCode` parameter to: `item = JSON.parse(item.stdout); return item;`. This line of code will take the `stdout` string, parse it into a JavaScript object, and then return that object. This means the output of *this* Function node will be a proper JSON object, making `value1` and `value2` directly accessible as properties. This is a clean way to transform the string output into structured data for downstream nodes that might need it.\n\nNext, the prompt also says, \"use an IF node to check if `value1` from the raw command output is true.\" This is an important distinction: it says \"raw command output,\" which means I should derive this check directly from the \"Execute Command\" node, not necessarily relying on the *parsed* output from my Function node. This implies a parallel branch.\n\nSo, I'll add an **IF** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.if`, and its `typeVersion` is also `1`. I need to connect this node's `main` input from the *same* `main` output of the \"Execute Command\" node as the Function node. This creates the parallel execution path I just thought about. This way, both the Function node and the IF node get the original data directly from the command execution.\n\nNow, configuring the IF node is crucial. I need to check if `value1` is `true`. Since it explicitly mentions \"from the raw command output,\" I'll reference the `stdout` from the \"Execute Command\" node directly within the IF node's condition expression.\n\nFor the `conditions` parameter of the IF node, I'll set up a boolean condition. I'll need to parse the `stdout` string *within* the expression itself to access `value1`. So, the `value1` field in the condition will be `={{JSON.parse($node[\"Execute Command\"].data[\"stdout\"]).value1}}`. This expression directly accesses the `stdout` from the node named \"Execute Command\", parses it, and then retrieves the `value1` property. I'll then set the `value2` of the condition to `true` to check if `value1` is indeed true.\n\nThis setup ensures that:\n1. The command runs and outputs the string.\n2. One path (to the Function node) takes that string and properly parses it into a usable JSON object for any subsequent nodes that need structured data.\n3. A separate, parallel path (to the IF node) takes the same raw string output and performs a specific check by parsing the string *on the fly* within its condition.\n\nThis seems to cover all requirements and follows the structure and node types provided in the JSON. The connections are logical, passing the raw command output to both subsequent processing steps." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Manual wait set'. It should begin with a Manual Trigger, flow into a Wait node set for 2 seconds, and then connect to a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Manual wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [900, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Manual\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1120, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Manual\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this workflow step by step, just as if I were building it in the n8n editor.\n\nFirst, the user prompt specifies the workflow name: \"Manual wait set.\" So, the first thing I'd do is set the overall workflow name to \"Manual wait set.\" This helps keep things organized.\n\nNow, let's think about the structure. The prompt clearly states how it should begin and what follows: \"It should begin with a Manual Trigger, flow into a Wait node set for 2 seconds, and then connect to a Set node.\" This gives me the exact sequence of nodes I need.\n\nSo, the very first node required is the trigger. Since it needs to be manually initiated, the `Manual Trigger` node is the perfect choice. I'll search for and add an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node to the canvas. Looking at the JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the standard version, indicating it's a stable and well-understood node type. It doesn't require any specific parameters; it just acts as the start button. I'll name it \"Manual\" as per the JSON.\n\nNext, the prompt says it should \"flow into a Wait node set for 2 seconds.\" This immediately tells me that after the manual trigger, I need a node that can introduce a delay. The `Wait` node is precisely designed for this purpose. I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.wait` node. Again, the `typeVersion` is `1`. Now, for the crucial part: configuring this `Wait` node. The prompt is very specific: \"set for 2 seconds.\" Looking at the JSON's parameters for the \"Wait\" node, I see `{\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}`. This confirms how I need to configure it: I'd set the 'Amount' field to `2` and select 'seconds' from the 'Unit' dropdown. This ensures the workflow pauses for the desired duration before moving on.\n\nFinally, the prompt states it should \"then connect to a Set node.\" So, as the last step in this sequence, I need to add a `Set` node. The `Set` node, `n8n-nodes-base.set` of `typeVersion: 1`, is a versatile node often used to manipulate or add data to the workflow items. In this case, the prompt just asks for its presence, and the JSON shows its parameters as `{\"options\": {}}`, meaning it's an empty Set node without any specific fields being added or modified at this point. It's simply serving as the final destination for the workflow's data stream after the wait. I'll name it \"Set.\"\n\nNow that I have all the nodes in place, I need to connect them in the specified order. The prompt clearly lays out the flow:\n1. From the \"Manual Trigger\" (my \"Manual\" node) to the \"Wait\" node. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"Manual\" node to the `main` input of the \"Wait\" node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, execution proceeds directly to the wait period.\n2. From the \"Wait\" node to the \"Set\" node. I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"Wait\" node to the `main` input of the \"Set\" node. This means that once the 2-second wait is over, the workflow will continue its execution and pass the data (or lack thereof, since the trigger doesn't send much) to the \"Set\" node.\n\nThat completes the specified sequence and configuration for the nodes and their connections. The workflow is now set up as requested, ready to be activated and tested. The `active: false` in the JSON means it's initially saved in an inactive state, which is typical for a newly created workflow before it's deployed. Other settings like `saveExecutionProgress` and `saveManualExecutions` are usually default good practices to ensure debugging information is available." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a Manual Trigger node.

The user prompt gives us a clear starting point and a specific task for the main action node. I'm going to walk through how I'd put this together, piece by piece.\n\nFirst off, the prompt explicitly states, \"Create an n8n workflow that starts with a Manual Trigger node.\" This is super straightforward. The very first thing I need is a way to kick off the workflow.\n\nSo, I'd go ahead and add a **Manual Trigger** node. This is a fundamental node for testing workflows or for scenarios where you want to manually initiate a process. Its full type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and I'd use `typeVersion 1`, which is the standard and most stable version for this simple trigger. It doesn't require any special configuration parameters; it simply outputs a single item when manually activated. I'll place it at a good starting position on the canvas, perhaps around `[300, 240]` \u2013 a bit to the left, ready for the flow to move right.\n\nNext, the prompt tells us to \"Connect it to an n8n node configured to manage a credential...\" This immediately tells me what my next node will be and how it should be linked. The `Manual Trigger` will just pass its default output (which is usually an empty item) to the next node, which is perfectly fine because the `n8n` node doesn't need specific data from the trigger to perform its operation.\n\nSo, I'll add an **n8n** node. The `n8n` node, or `n8n-nodes-base.n8n` with `typeVersion 1`, is specifically designed for interacting with the n8n instance itself. This is exactly what's needed when you want to manage things like workflows, users, or in this case, credentials directly within n8n. I'll place this node to the right of the `Manual Trigger`, say at `[540, 240]`, maintaining a clear left-to-right flow.\n\nNow, for configuring this `n8n` node, the prompt is quite specific: \"configured to manage a credential named '123' of type '123', using an 'n8n account' credential.\"\n\nLet's break down the configuration parameters for the `n8n` node:\n* **Resource:** The phrase \"manage a credential\" directly points to the `resource` option within the `n8n` node. I'd set this to \"credential\". This tells the node that its operation will be focused on n8n's credential management system.\n* **Credential Name:** The prompt specifies \"named '123'\". This corresponds to the `name` parameter for the credential itself. So, I'll input `123` into the `name` field for the credential I want to manage.\n* **Credential Type Name:** It also says \"of type '123'\". This refers to the `credentialTypeName` parameter. So, I'll enter `123` here. Together, the resource set to \"credential\", the specific `name` of \"123\", and the `credentialTypeName` of \"123\" precisely define which credential the node will interact with.\n\nFinally, the `n8n` node needs to authenticate itself to the n8n instance to perform these operations. The prompt says, \"using an 'n8n account' credential.\"\n* In the `credentials` section of the `n8n` node, I would select an `n8nApi` type credential. The workflow needs to use an existing credential that grants it permission to interact with the n8n API. The prompt's reference to \"'n8n account'\" indicates the name of a pre-configured `n8nApi` credential that should be selected. This credential would contain the necessary authentication details (like an API key or an OAuth token) to access the n8n instance.\n\nWith both nodes configured, the final step is to connect them. I'd drag a connection from the `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` node to the `main` input of the `n8n` node. This establishes the sequential flow: when the manual trigger is activated, it passes control to the `n8n` node, which then executes its operation to manage the specified credential." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"Build a Workflow That Creates a Daily To-Do List in Notion (day2)\".

We've got a clear goal here: we want to automatically create a specific page in Notion, and we want it to happen on a schedule.\n\nFirst things first, how are we going to kick this off? The prompt mentions \"scheduled to trigger\". This immediately tells me we need a trigger node that can handle time-based events. The perfect fit for this is a \"Schedule Trigger\" node.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a **Schedule Trigger** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is 1.2.\n* This node is ideal because its sole purpose is to start a workflow at a predefined time or interval. We need something to initiate the process, and this is exactly what it does.\n* Looking at the JSON, the `parameters` for this node show `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This indicates that the node is set up to *be* a schedule trigger, but the specific interval rules aren't fully defined in this snippet. If I were setting it up for a \"daily\" trigger as the prompt suggests, I'd go into these parameters and configure it for something like \"Every Day\" at a specific time, say 9 AM. But as it stands in the JSON, the `interval` array is empty, meaning it's not yet configured for a specific recurring schedule, just that it's meant to be a scheduled trigger. It's sitting there, ready to be told *when* to trigger.\n\nOnce our workflow is triggered, what's the very next thing we need to do? We need to create a Notion database page. This means the next logical step is to interact with Notion. So, I'll need a Notion node.\n\nI'd then add a **Notion** node, and it will be directly connected to the \"Schedule Trigger\" node. The \"Schedule Trigger\" will pass its output (essentially just triggering the flow) directly into the \"Notion\" node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.notion`, and its `typeVersion` is 2.2.\n* This node is the go-to for anything related to interacting with Notion, whether it's creating pages, querying databases, updating content, or anything else. Since our goal is to create a page, this is the right choice.\n* Now, let's configure this Notion node based on the prompt and the provided JSON.\n * Under `parameters`, the `resource` is set to `\"databasePage\"`. This is exactly what we need, as we're creating a new page within a database, not just a standalone page or performing another Notion operation.\n * Next, for `databaseId`, the JSON correctly specifies `{\"__rl\": true, \"value\": \"1b74f25b-01d3-8007-bb3a-d2fd4a1d8c92\", \"mode\": \"list\", \"cachedResultName\": \"Tasks Tracker\", \"cachedResultUrl\": \"https:\/\/www.notion.so\/1b74f25b01d38007bb3ad2fd4a1d8c92\"}`. This is crucial: it tells the Notion node *which* database to create the page in. The `value` is the specific ID for the \"Tasks Tracker\" database, which is exactly what the prompt requested. The `cachedResultName` \"Tasks Tracker\" helps with user readability in the UI.\n * The `title` of the new page is set to `\"This Is The 1st Task\"`. This directly matches the requirement from the prompt. So, the page will be named correctly.\n * Now, for the `propertiesUi`. This is where we'd typically configure any specific Notion properties for the new page, like status, multi-select tags, dates, etc. The JSON shows `{\"propertyValues\": [{}]}`. This is an empty configuration for page properties. The prompt mentioned including tags 'kunal' and 'Completed'. If I were to implement those *on the Notion page*, I would need to add specific entries within `propertyValues` to map to multi-select or select properties in the Notion database, specifying the tag names. However, based *only* on the provided JSON for this node, no Notion page properties are being set. It's important to note that the workflow *itself* has `tags` 'kunal' and 'Completed' in its metadata, which are n8n workflow tags, not properties that would be applied to the Notion page.\n * Finally, the `credentials` are specified as `{\"notionApi\": {\"id\": \"q85fOZ0mTsX0PQGh\", \"name\": \"Notion account\"}}`. This is where the secure connection to Notion is established. An actual API key or token would be securely linked via this credential.\n\nSo, to summarize the flow: The schedule trigger sits dormant until its (currently undefined) schedule is met, at which point it activates, and then the Notion node creates a new page titled \"This Is The 1st Task\" in the specified \"Tasks Tracker\" database. No Notion specific properties (like tags or status) are configured on the page itself by this particular Notion node setup in the JSON." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Busca ou Insere Cliente\" that starts with a webhook at `\/add-customer-bd` expecting `id_user` and `data_conversao` in its body.

When I'm building something like this, I always start by thinking about what triggers the workflow and what information it needs to receive.\n\nThe user prompt specifies that the workflow needs to \"start with a webhook at `\/add-customer-bd` expecting `id_user` and `data_conversao` in its body.\" This immediately tells me that the very first node in our workflow has to be a Webhook node. It's the only way to expose an HTTP endpoint to trigger the workflow from an external system.\n\nSo, the first node I'd place is a **Webhook** node.\n- Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, which is the standard n8n node for receiving incoming HTTP requests.\n- The `typeVersion` is `2`. While there might be other versions, this one is perfectly suitable for the task. Different versions might introduce new features or slight changes in how parameters are handled, but for a basic webhook, version 2 works well.\n- For its configuration, the prompt is very clear about the path: `\/add-customer-bd`. So, I'd set the `path` parameter to `add-customer-bd`.\n- The `responseMode` is set to `lastNode`. This is a common and flexible choice, meaning whatever the final node in the workflow outputs will be sent back as the HTTP response. It's usually a good default unless a specific custom response is required earlier.\n- I'd also name this node something descriptive, like `fluxo_chamado` (which translates to \"call flow\" or \"incoming flow\"), to indicate its role as the entry point for the workflow. I'd mentally note that it's expecting `id_user` and `data_conversao` in the request body, which n8n's webhook node handles automatically when the content type is JSON.\n\nNext, the prompt says, \"Connect this to a MySQL node that executes the `busca_cliente` stored procedure, passing the `id_user` and `data_conversao` received from the webhook.\" This tells me the immediate next step after receiving the webhook data is to interact with a MySQL database.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `fluxo_chamado` (Webhook) node's `main` output to the input of a new **MySQL** node.\n- The node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.mySql`. This is the dedicated node for interacting with MySQL databases, making it the perfect choice for this task.\n- The `typeVersion` is `2.4`. Again, specific version differences might exist, but version 2.4 is robust enough for typical database operations.\n- For its configuration, the primary goal is to execute a stored procedure. So, the `operation` parameter needs to be set to `executeQuery`. This operation allows us to run custom SQL queries, which is exactly what's needed for calling a stored procedure.\n- The `query` parameter is where the core logic goes. The prompt requires executing `busca_cliente` and passing the `id_user` and `data_conversao` from the webhook. So, I'd construct the SQL statement: `CALL busca_cliente(?, ?);` and then use n8n's expression syntax to pull the data from the previous node. It would look like `CALL busca_cliente('{{ $node[\"fluxo_chamado\"].json[\"body\"][\"id_user\"] }}', '{{ $node[\"fluxo_chamado\"].json[\"body\"][\"data_conversao\"] }}');`. This ensures that the values dynamically received by the webhook are correctly passed as arguments to the stored procedure.\n- Naturally, a MySQL node requires credentials. I wouldn't specify actual values here, but I'd know that a `mySql` credential record would need to be configured with the database host, port, username, password, and database name to allow n8n to connect to the MySQL instance.\n- I'd give this node a clear name like `executa_procedure` to reflect its function.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies, \"and then connect to a Limit node.\" This implies that after the MySQL operation, the workflow should proceed to a Limit node.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `executa_procedure` (MySQL) node's `main` output to the input of a new **Limit** node.\n- Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.limit`. This node is generally used to control the number of items that pass through a particular branch of the workflow. For instance, if the MySQL query returned many rows, a Limit node could restrict it to only the first `X` rows.\n- The `typeVersion` is `1`.\n- Looking at its parameters, they are empty in the JSON. This usually means the node is using its default behavior, or it might be serving as a simple pass-through without applying any specific item limit in this particular setup. It could also be a placeholder for future functionality where a limit might be required, or simply a way to explicitly end this specific branch of the workflow before the webhook responds.\n- I'd name it simply `Limit`, as it's a common practice for such nodes.\n\nAnd that completes the construction of the workflow based on the prompt. The data flows logically from the incoming webhook, through the database operation, and then to a final limit node before the webhook would send its response." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow named 'My workflow' that triggers manually, then retrieves up to 10 people from an 'n8n training Customer Datastore'.

The request is pretty clear: start manually, grab some customer data, and then augment it with a couple of new properties.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly says it \"triggers manually,\" so that's where I'll begin.\n\nI'll add a **Manual Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is ideal because it allows the workflow to be executed directly by a user, typically when they click a 'Test workflow' button in the n8n UI, matching the manual trigger requirement perfectly. For its name, \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" is descriptive and fits the JSON. This node doesn't require any specific configuration parameters, so its `parameters` object will remain empty. It just provides a kick-off signal.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next step in the sequence is to \"retrieve up to 10 people from an 'n8n training Customer Datastore'\". This immediately tells me I need a node that can interact with that specific customer datastore. Looking at the available nodes and thinking about data sources, I'd search for something related to \"Customer Datastore\" and \"n8n training\".\n\nI'll add the **Customer Datastore (n8n training)** node. This node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is specifically designed for interacting with that particular dataset, making it the perfect choice here.\nNext, I need to connect the trigger to this data retrieval node. The output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node will connect to the input of the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the very next action is to retrieve the customer data.\nFor its configuration, the prompt states \"retrieves people.\" So, I need to select the appropriate operation. The JSON specifies `\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"`, which is exactly what I'd choose to fetch multiple people records.\nThen, there's the detail about \"up to 10 people.\" This means I need to limit the number of records returned. I'd look for a `limit` parameter, and indeed, the JSON has `\"limit\": 10`. This ensures we don't accidentally pull down an excessively large dataset if the datastore contains many records, adhering to the requirement.\n\nFinally, after retrieving the customer data, the prompt requires me to \"add `objectValue.prop1` as 123 (number) and `objectValue.prop2` as 'someText' (string) using dot notation.\" This sounds like a job for a **Set** node, which is commonly used to add, remove, or modify data fields in the incoming items.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Set** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is fantastic for manipulating the data that flows through the workflow, allowing me to inject new properties as requested.\nThe connection for this node is straightforward: it needs to operate on the data retrieved from the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node. So, the output of the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node will connect to the input of the \"Set\" node. This ensures that each person record retrieved will then pass through the Set node to have the new properties added.\nNow, for the configuration of the Set node:\nFirst, to add `objectValue.prop1` as a number 123. I'd navigate to the `values` section and specifically the `number` type. Here, I'll add an entry with `name: \"objectValue.prop1\"` and `value: 123`.\nSecond, to add `objectValue.prop2` as a string 'someText'. I'd go to the `string` type within the `values` section. Here, I'll add an entry with `name: \"objectValue.prop2\"` and `value: \"someText\"`.\nThe crucial part here is \"using dot notation\". Without this enabled, the Set node would create flat keys named \"objectValue.prop1\" and \"objectValue.prop2\". To achieve a nested structure where `prop1` and `prop2` are properties *within* an `objectValue` object, I need to enable the `dotNotation` option. The JSON confirms this with `\"options\": {\"dotNotation\": true}`. This setting ensures that the Set node correctly interprets the dot in the key names and creates nested JSON objects, which is excellent for organizing data.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the requirements and the provided JSON structure.

This immediately tells me what my starting and perhaps my main action nodes will be.\n\nFirst, I need a way to initiate the workflow. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger\". Looking at the n8n nodes, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node is the perfect fit for this. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is standard for this kind of basic trigger. I'll drag that onto my canvas.\n\nNow, for configuring this \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node \u2013 that's its default name, which is perfectly descriptive. The `parameters` for this node are an empty object, `{}`, meaning there are no specific configuration settings needed *within* the node's properties panel itself for its basic operation. It just serves as a starting point.\n\nHowever, the user also specified very detailed test data for this manual trigger. This data isn't configured within the `parameters` of the node directly but rather in its \"pin data\" \u2013 the actual input items it will output when \"Test workflow\" is clicked. This is a really convenient feature of manual triggers for setting up mock data.\n\nSo, I'll go into the test data setup for this trigger. The first test item needs to have:\n* `aaString: \"A String\"`\n* `aaNumber: 1`\n* `aaArray: [1, true, \"3\"]` (an array with mixed types, which n8n handles gracefully)\n* `aaObject: {\"aKey\": -1}` (a simple object)\n* `aaAny: {}` (an empty object, signifying some generic, flexible data type)\n\nThen, a second test item is required. I'll add another item to the trigger's test data with:\n* `aaString: \"Another String\"`\n* `aaNumber: 2`\n* `aaArray: []` (an empty array this time)\n* `aaObject: {\"aDifferentKey\": -1}` (a different key in the object, showcasing flexibility)\n* `aaAny: []` (an empty array for the 'any' field in this case)\n\nThis \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node will now output these two distinct items, one after the other, whenever the workflow is tested.\n\nNext, the user wants this manual trigger to be connected to an \"Execute Workflow\" node. This sounds like I need a node that can call another workflow, possibly a sub-workflow or a completely separate workflow, from within this one. The `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow` node is precisely what I'm looking for. Its `typeVersion` is `1.2`, which implies it has some updated features or stability improvements over an earlier version, but its core function remains the same: executing another workflow. I'll add this node to the canvas.\n\nNow, I need to connect the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node to this new \"Execute Workflow\" node. A standard `main` connection from the output of the manual trigger to the input of the \"Execute Workflow\" node is appropriate. This means that each of the two items generated by the manual trigger will be passed as input to the \"Execute Workflow\" node.\n\nLet's configure the \"Execute Workflow\" node, named \"Execute Workflow\" as per the JSON.\nLooking at its `parameters`:\n* `workflowId`: The JSON shows `{}`, an empty object. This means that the ID of the specific workflow this node is supposed to execute has not been set in this particular JSON snippet. In a real scenario, this is where I would typically provide the unique ID of the target workflow I want to run. It could be selected from a dropdown if the workflow already exists, or specified dynamically.\n* `workflowInputs`: This is where I control what data gets passed to the workflow being executed. The JSON shows `{\"mappingMode\": \"defineBelow\", \"value\": {}, \"matchingColumns\": [], \"schema\": [], \"attemptToConvertTypes\": false, \"convertFieldsToString\": true}`. The `mappingMode` being \"defineBelow\" suggests I *could* manually map fields, but since `value` is an empty object `{}`, it indicates that no specific remapping is being done here. In practice, this often means that the incoming items from the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node will be passed directly as the inputs to the executed workflow. The `attemptToConvertTypes: false` and `convertFieldsToString: true` are default options that control how data types are handled, but for this basic pass-through, they usually don't need adjustment unless I run into specific type issues in the target workflow.\n* `options`: This is also an empty object `{}`, implying no special execution options (like wait for completion, or propagate output) are configured beyond the defaults.\n\nSo, for each of the two test items originating from the manual trigger, the \"Execute Workflow\" node will attempt to execute the (currently unspecified) target workflow, passing that item's data as its input. This is a very clean way to pass context from a parent workflow to a child workflow.\n\nAnd that completes the setup. The workflow starts manually, generates two test data items, and then for each of those items, it triggers another, separate workflow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow featuring two Webhook nodes, both connecting to a Hacker News node configured to retrieve `articleId` '123', which then outputs to a Set node named \"Edit Fields\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.3, \"position\": [1140, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"30ff316d-405f-4288-a0ac-e713546c9d4e\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [680, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"articleId\": \"123\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Hacker News\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.hackerNews\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [920, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"4a3398e4-1388-4e10-9d21-add90b804955\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [680, 180]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Hacker News\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Hacker News\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Hacker News\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow based on the requirements and the provided JSON.\n\nMy primary goal here is to create a workflow that gets triggered externally, fetches specific data from Hacker News, and then prepares that data for potential further manipulation.\n\nFirst off, the prompt clearly states that the workflow should feature *two* Webhook nodes. This immediately tells me my entry points. I usually like to start by setting up the triggers that will kick off the workflow.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding the first Webhook node. Looking at the JSON, I see one named \"Webhook\" (ID `1c2c2d06-45c9-4712-9fa0-c655bef8d0e5`).\nThis is an `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, with `typeVersion: 2`. This is the perfect choice for an external trigger, as it allows the workflow to be activated by an incoming HTTP request. I'd configure its `path` parameter, which essentially defines the unique URL endpoint where this webhook will listen for requests.\n\nNext, since the requirement is for *two* webhook nodes, I'd add a second one. From the JSON, I can see \"Webhook1\" (ID `4760aafb-5d56-4633-99d3-7a97c576a216`).\nAgain, it's an `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` of `typeVersion: 2`. Just like the first one, it will be configured with its own distinct `path` parameter, allowing it to be triggered independently by a separate HTTP request. Having two separate webhooks provides flexibility if different external systems need to trigger the same core logic without interfering with each other's endpoints.\n\nNow that I have my triggers set up, I need to look at what they connect to. The prompt states \"both connecting to a Hacker News node configured to retrieve `articleId` '123'\". So, the next logical step is to add that Hacker News node.\n\nI'd bring in the Hacker News node (ID `8c811eca-8978-44d9-b8f7-ef2c7725784c`). Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.hackerNews`, and it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed to interact with the Hacker News API, making it ideal for fetching information like articles, users, or comments.\nFor its configuration, the prompt is very specific: it needs to retrieve `articleId` '123'. So, I'd go into its parameters and set the `articleId` field to \"123\". This ensures that whenever this node is activated, it will fetch the details for that particular Hacker News article.\n\nNow for the connections. Both of my Webhook nodes, \"Webhook\" and \"Webhook1,\" need to flow into this Hacker News node. So, I'd draw a connection from the output of \"Webhook\" to the input of \"Hacker News,\" and similarly, a connection from the output of \"Webhook1\" to the input of \"Hacker News.\" This design means that *either* webhook, when triggered, will cause the Hacker News node to execute and fetch article '123'. This is efficient as it centralizes the core data fetching logic.\n\nFinally, the prompt says the Hacker News node \"then outputs to a Set node named \"Edit Fields\"\". So, this will be the last node in this particular workflow sequence.\n\nI'd add a Set node (ID `f4467143-fdb9-46fa-8020-6417cc5eea7d`). Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, `typeVersion: 3.3`. A Set node is incredibly useful for manipulating data as it flows through the workflow. It allows you to add, remove, or modify fields on the incoming JSON data. In this case, it's named \"Edit Fields,\" which suggests its purpose is to prepare or transform the data retrieved from Hacker News. Even if it's currently configured with empty options, its presence indicates a stage where data might be refined or restructured before being passed on to subsequent, unstated parts of the workflow.\n\nThe connection here is straightforward: the output of the \"Hacker News\" node connects to the input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This ensures that the article data retrieved from Hacker News is passed directly to the Set node for any necessary processing or field adjustments." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers when a Jira issue is updated, sending a message to the 'test-boat' Slack channel. The message should include details like the project key, board name, and the user who made the update.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Jira and Slack Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"events\": [\"jira:issue_updated\"], \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Jira Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.jiraTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [380, 280]}, {\"parameters\": {\"authentication\": \"oAuth2\", \"select\": \"channel\", \"channelId\": {\"__rl\": true, \"value\": \"C07FP1HCTK3\", \"mode\": \"list\", \"cachedResultName\": \"test-boat\"}, \"text\": \"=Issue updated in\\n {{ $json.issue.fields.project.key }} board in {{ $json.issue.fields.customfield_10020[0].name }}. assigned to {{ $json.user.displayName }} \", \"otherOptions\": {}}, \"name\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.slack\", \"typeVersion\": 2.2, \"position\": [600, 280]}], \"connections\": {\"Jira Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this workflow. The request is quite clear: we need to react to updates in Jira and then push a message with specific details into a Slack channel.\n\nSo, the very first thing that comes to mind is how to kick off this whole process. We need something that listens for events from Jira. For that, the most appropriate node would be a **Jira Trigger** node.\n\nI'd pull in the `n8n-nodes-base.jiraTrigger` node, specifically `typeVersion: 1.1`, as our starting point. This node is perfect because it's designed to set up a webhook in Jira that will automatically notify our n8n workflow whenever a relevant event occurs. Looking at the prompt, it needs to trigger \"when a Jira issue is updated\". So, in the configuration for this Jira Trigger node, I'd make sure that the `events` parameter is set to listen for `jira:issue_updated`. This is crucial; it ensures the workflow only runs when an issue actually changes, not for creation or deletion or other events. Of course, this node would also need to be configured with valid Jira credentials so it can properly authenticate and register the webhook with the Jira instance. The `webhookId` you see in the JSON is something n8n automatically generates and manages once the workflow is activated, linking the Jira webhook to this specific trigger.\n\nOnce the Jira Trigger node fires and receives data about an updated issue, we need to do something with that information. The next step, according to the prompt, is to send a message to Slack. So, naturally, the next node to add would be a **Slack** node.\n\nI'd connect the `main` output of our Jira Trigger node to the `main` input of this new Slack node. This ensures that the data payload from the Jira update (which contains all the issue details, user information, etc.) is passed directly to the Slack node, making it available for us to use in our message. The Slack node I'd choose is `n8n-nodes-base.slack`, specifically `typeVersion: 2.2`. This is the go-to node for sending messages, interacting with channels, and other Slack operations.\n\nNow, for configuring this Slack node. First, it needs to authenticate with Slack. The JSON indicates `authentication: \"oAuth2\"`, which is a common and secure method. This would require an existing Slack OAuth2 credential to be set up within n8n.\n\nNext, we need to tell it where to send the message. The prompt specifically asks for the 'test-boat' Slack channel. So, I'd set the `select` parameter to `channel`, indicating we're sending to a channel, not a user or conversation. Then, for the `channelId`, I'd select the 'test-boat' channel from the available options. The JSON shows `C07FP1HCTK3` with a `cachedResultName` of \"test-boat\", which means 'test-boat' was chosen from a list, and its internal ID was stored.\n\nFinally, the core of the Slack node: the message content itself. The prompt requires details like the project key, board name, and the user who made the update. This is where we'll use expressions to dynamically pull data from the Jira payload that the Jira Trigger node received.\n\nFor the `text` parameter of the Slack message, I'd start crafting the message. We can begin with a static phrase like \"Issue updated in\". Then, to get the project key, I'd reference the incoming JSON data using an expression like `{{ $json.issue.fields.project.key }}`. Jira webhooks typically structure their data this way, making the project key easily accessible.\n\nNext, for the \"board name,\" the JSON points to `{{ $json.issue.fields.customfield_10020[0].name }}`. This is interesting. It indicates that the board name isn't a standard field but likely stored in a custom field, identified by `customfield_10020`. The `[0]` suggests it might be an array, and we're just taking the name from the first item. This is a good example of how sometimes you need to inspect the actual webhook payload from an application like Jira to find the exact path to the data you need. So, I'd include this expression, ensuring it extracts the board name from that specific custom field. I'd also put a newline character (`\\n`) in the message to format it nicely, perhaps to put the project and board info on one line and the user on the next.\n\nAnd lastly, for \"the user who made the update,\" the JSON shows `{{ $json.user.displayName }}`. This is usually provided in Jira webhook payloads, representing the user account that performed the action that triggered the event. So, this expression will pull their display name directly into the message.\n\nWe're not configuring any `otherOptions` on the Slack node, which means we're sticking to a basic text message without things like attachments or complex block kits, which is perfectly fine for this requirement.\n\nAnd that would be it. The workflow would be complete: trigger on Jira update, extract relevant details, and send a nicely formatted message to the specified Slack channel." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'Mailgun' containing a 'Start' node connected to a 'Mailgun' node.

The request is to create an inactive n8n workflow named 'Mailgun' that sends an email using the Mailgun service.\n\nFirst, I'll set up the overall workflow properties. The workflow needs to be named 'Mailgun', as specified, and it must be inactive. So, I'll set `name` to \"Mailgun\" and `active` to `false`. This ensures it won't run until manually activated, which is a good default for a new workflow under construction.\n\nNow, let's think about the nodes needed. To send an email, I'll definitely need a node that interacts with Mailgun. And every workflow needs a starting point.\n\nI'll begin by adding the `Start` node. This is the foundational node for any workflow, acting as the entry point. It's of `type: n8n-nodes-base.start` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'll place it at a convenient position, say `[250, 300]`, to give ample space for the next node. For a basic workflow like this, the `Start` node itself doesn't require any specific parameters to be configured. It simply initiates the workflow execution.\n\nNext, the core requirement is to send an email via Mailgun. So, the logical choice is a `Mailgun` node. This node is specifically designed for interacting with the Mailgun API to perform actions like sending emails. I'll use `type: n8n-nodes-base.mailgun` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'll want to place it to the right of the `Start` node, perhaps at `[470, 300]`, so the flow is clear from left to right.\n\nNow, let's configure this `Mailgun` node.\nThe prompt specifies sending an email *from* 'nodeqa@n8n.io' *to* 'node8qa@gmail.com'. So, within the `parameters` of the `Mailgun` node, I'll set `fromEmail` to the sender's address and `toEmail` to the recipient's address. These are straightforward string values.\n\nFor the `subject`, the request specifies including `Date.now()`. This means the subject needs to be dynamic. I'll use an expression for this. The JSON shows `\"=Mailgun{{Date.now()}}\"`. This means the subject will start with the static string \"Mailgun\" and then dynamically append the current timestamp, which is generated by the `Date.now()` JavaScript function. Using an expression (indicated by the leading `=`) allows for this kind of dynamic content generation within node fields.\n\nSimilarly, for the email `text`, it should use `(new Date).toUTCString()`. This again requires an expression. The JSON shows `\"=Test text {{(new Date).toUTCString()}}\"`. So, the email body will start with the static string \"Test text\" and then dynamically include the current date and time in UTC format, generated by the `(new Date).toUTCString()` JavaScript function. This makes the email content informative about when it was sent.\n\nFinally, for the `Mailgun` node to actually send emails, it needs authentication. This is handled by `credentials`. The workflow JSON indicates that Mailgun API credentials are required and are linked here. This is where I would specify that the node will utilize a pre-configured set of credentials for authenticating with the Mailgun API. Without these, the node wouldn't be able to connect to Mailgun.\n\nWith the nodes defined and configured, I need to establish the connection between them. The `Start` node should pass execution to the `Mailgun` node. So, in the `connections` object, I'll define that the `main` output of the `Start` node (`Start: {\"main\": ...}`) connects to the input of the `Mailgun` node. This ensures that once the workflow starts, it proceeds directly to the `Mailgun` node to send the email. This is represented by `[[{\"node\": \"Mailgun\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]`.\n\nThat pretty much covers all the requirements for this workflow. The connections are in place, the nodes are configured with their specific parameters and dynamic content, and the overall workflow is set to be inactive, as requested." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, retrieves all people from the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node, and then uses a \"Set\" node to count the number of received items, outputting only this \"itemCount\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Execute Workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 400]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}, \"name\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 400]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"itemCount\", \"value\": \"={{ $input.all().length }}\"}]}, \"options\": {}, \"keepOnlySet\": true}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1260, 400]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Execute Workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow based on the user's request and the provided JSON.\n\nThe first thing I need to think about is how this workflow should start. The user explicitly said it needs to \"manually trigger.\" Looking at n8n's available nodes, the most straightforward way to achieve a manual trigger is by using the \"Manual Trigger\" node. So, I'd grab an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node, which in the JSON is `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it literally creates a button in the n8n UI that, when clicked, starts the workflow execution. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters for its basic operation, as seen in the JSON where `parameters` is an empty object `{}`. It simply acts as the initial spark for the workflow. I'd place it at the beginning of my workflow flow.\n\nNext, the prompt states that the workflow needs to \"retrieve all people from the 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node.\" This points directly to a specific data source. In n8n, custom or training data sources often have their own dedicated nodes. Based on the name provided, it's pretty clear I'm looking for a \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node. So, I'd add an `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` node. This node's `typeVersion` is `1`. For its configuration, the crucial part is the `operation`. The request is to \"retrieve all people,\" which maps perfectly to the `getAllPeople` operation. This is explicitly set in the JSON under `parameters`: `{\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}`. This node will connect directly from the output of my \"Manual Trigger\" node, specifically from the `main` output of the trigger to the `main` input of this customer datastore node. This way, once the workflow is manually triggered, it immediately proceeds to fetch the customer data.\n\nFinally, the user wants to \"use a 'Set' node to count the number of received items, outputting only this 'itemCount'.\" This tells me I need a node that can perform a calculation and then control the output data. The `Set` node (`n8n-nodes-base.set`, `typeVersion: 1`) is ideal for this. It allows me to create new fields or modify existing ones based on expressions. I'll connect this `Set` node to the `main` output of the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node, as it needs to process the items received from there.\n\nNow, for the configuration of the `Set` node. The goal is to count the items. In n8n expressions, `$input.all().length` is a common and very effective way to get the total number of items passed into a node. So, I'll add a new value to be set. The user specified \"itemCount\" as the name, and it should be a number. So, under `values`, I'd create a `number` type entry with `name: \"itemCount\"` and for its `value`, I'd use the expression `={{ $input.all().length }}`. The double curly braces `{{...}}` indicate an expression.\n\nOne last critical detail for the `Set` node: the user said \"outputting *only* this 'itemCount'.\" This means I don't want any of the original customer data to pass through, just my newly calculated count. The `Set` node has an option called `keepOnlySet` which does exactly this. Setting `keepOnlySet: true` in the parameters will ensure that only the fields defined within the `Set` node itself (in this case, `itemCount`) are passed to the next node in the workflow, filtering out all other incoming data. This perfectly matches the requirement. The `options` parameter is left empty, as no other specific options are needed for this particular calculation. And `executeOnce: true` is also present, which means the node will execute its logic only once across all items, which is appropriate when calculating a single count based on the *total* number of input items." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow with a manual trigger that connects to a disabled Code node named 'Error' containing `error`, which then connects to an active Code node that adds `myNewField: 1` to the JSON of each input item.

So, the very first node we'll need is something that allows the workflow to be initiated by a user. Looking at the n8n node types, the `manualTrigger` node is the obvious choice for this. It's simple, straightforward, and fulfills the requirement perfectly. I'd add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'll name it something descriptive like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's clear what it does when someone looks at the workflow. There are no specific parameters to configure for a basic manual trigger; it just acts as the entry point.\n\nNext, the prompt says this manual trigger \"connects to a disabled Code node named 'Error' containing `error`\". This immediately tells me two things: I need a Code node, and it needs to be explicitly disabled. So, from our \"On clicking 'execute'\" node, the next step in the flow will be a `n8n-nodes-base.code` node. I'll set its `typeVersion` to `1`. The prompt is quite specific about its name: \"Error\", so that's what I'll call it. The most crucial part for this node, besides its name, is that it needs to be `disabled: true`. This means even if data flows into it, its code won't execute, and it won't block the workflow with an error. The prompt also mentions it \"containing `error`\". This implies some kind of intentionally malformed or problematic code within it. So, in its `jsCode` parameter, after the standard loop to process items, I'd intentionally put `error` on a line, ensuring that if it *were* enabled, it would indeed throw an error. This fulfills the requirement for it to \"contain `error`\". This node serves as a placeholder for a potential error condition or a part of the workflow that's currently under development or intentionally bypassed.\n\nFollowing the chain, the prompt then states that this disabled \"Error\" node \"connects to an active Code node that adds `myNewField: 1` to the JSON of each input item.\" So, even though the \"Error\" node is disabled, the connection from it will still lead to the next node. This implies that the data flow bypasses the disabled node and goes directly to the next one in the connection sequence. The next node will again be a `n8n-nodes-base.code` node, `typeVersion: 1`, because it needs to perform a data transformation on each item. I'll just name it \"Code\" since the prompt doesn't give a specific name for this one. Since the prompt specifies it's \"active,\" I won't set the `disabled` property on it, making it active by default. The core functionality of this node is to add `myNewField: 1` to each input item. Inside its `jsCode` parameter, I'd implement a loop that iterates over `$input.all()` items and for each `item.json`, it sets `myNewField = 1`. This is a common pattern for manipulating JSON data within a Code node in n8n.\n\nFinally, the prompt adds an overarching requirement: \"Additionally, apply the tags 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2' to the workflow.\" Tags are applied at the workflow level, not to individual nodes. So, outside of the `nodes` array and `connections` object, at the root level of the workflow JSON, I would include a `tags` array. Inside this array, I'd add two tag objects, one for `name: \"some-tag-1\"` and another for `name: \"some-tag-2\"`. These tags help categorize and organize workflows, making them easier to find and manage in a larger n8n instance. They often come with automatically generated `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, and `id` properties, which I wouldn't explicitly define but would expect the system to add." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, then sets a key `my_key` with the value `my_value`.

The request is pretty clear: start manually, set some data, and then push it into MongoDB.\n\nSo, the very first thing that comes to mind is how this workflow is going to get triggered. The prompt explicitly says \"starts with a manual trigger.\" Given that, the most straightforward choice, and really the only one that fits this description in n8n, is the Manual Trigger node. I'd definitely grab an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. Its purpose is literally just to start a workflow when you click \"execute\" in the editor or via an API call specifically for manual execution. It's super simple, it doesn't require any specific parameters to configure, as you can see its `parameters` block is empty. This is ideal for a quick test or a workflow that's only meant to be run on demand. I'll make sure it's the very first node in the sequence. It's typeVersion 1, which is the standard, widely compatible version for this node, and there's no real need to consider a different version as its core functionality is quite stable.\n\nAfter the workflow is triggered, the next step is to \"set a key `my_key` with the value `my_value`.\" This tells me I need a node that can introduce or manipulate data within the workflow. The `Set` node is perfect for this. It allows you to define specific fields and their values, effectively creating or modifying the JSON data that flows through the workflow. So, I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.set` node right after the Manual Trigger.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Set node? I need to make sure it creates an item with `my_key` and `my_value`. Looking at the parameters, I'd go into the 'Values' section and specifically add a 'String' type value. I'd name this field `my_key` and set its value to `my_value`. The `options` parameter for this node is empty, meaning I'm not doing anything fancy like keeping only set fields or ignoring empty ones, just a straightforward data assignment. This node will take the empty input from the Manual Trigger and output a single item containing `{ \"my_key\": \"my_value\" }`. This is exactly what we need to prepare the data for the final step. Again, typeVersion 1 is the current standard for this node, and its functionality for setting static values is robust.\n\nFinally, the prompt says, \"insert this data into the `n8n-collection` MongoDB collection using MongoDB credentials.\" This immediately points me to the `MongoDB` node. It's the dedicated node for interacting with MongoDB databases. I'll connect the output of the Set node directly to the input of this `n8n-nodes-base.mongoDb` node.\n\nWhen configuring the MongoDB node, the first thing is the operation. Since we need to \"insert this data,\" the `operation` parameter must be set to `insert`. Then, I need to specify *which* collection to insert into. The prompt states `n8n-collection`, so I'll set the `collection` parameter to `n8n-collection`.\n\nNow, about the data itself. The Set node is outputting an item with `my_key`. The MongoDB node needs to know what fields from the incoming item it should use for the insert operation. In this case, we want to insert the `my_key` and its associated value. So, I'd configure the `fields` parameter to `my_key`. This tells the MongoDB node to take the `my_key` field from the incoming data and include it in the document it inserts into the collection.\n\nCrucially, this node requires credentials to connect to the MongoDB database. I won't specify actual credentials here, but I'd ensure that a `mongoDb` credential, let's call it `mongodb_credentials` as per the JSON, is properly configured in n8n. This credential would contain all the necessary connection details like the database URI, authentication, etc. Without it, the node wouldn't be able to connect to the database. The `typeVersion` for this node is 1, which means it's using a stable and well-understood interface for MongoDB operations.\n\nSo, to recap the flow: the Manual Trigger starts, passing an empty item to the Set node. The Set node takes that item, adds `my_key` with `my_value` to it, and passes that new item to the MongoDB node. The MongoDB node then uses its configured credentials to connect to the database, takes the `my_key` field from the incoming item, and inserts it as a new document into the `n8n-collection` collection. It's a straightforward, linear flow, accomplishing all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate a short URL for a specified long URL using Yourls, and then retrieve the statistics for that newly created short URL.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Create a short URL and get the statistics of the URL\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [370, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/medium.com\/n8n-io\/sending-sms-the-low-code-way-with-airtable-twilio-programmable-sms-and-n8n-90dbde74223e?source=---------4-----------------------\", \"additionalFields\": {\"title\": \"Sending SMS the Low-Code Way with Airtable, Twilio Programmable SMS, and n8n\"}}, \"name\": \"Yourls\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.yourls\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [570, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"shortUrl\": \"={{$node[\\\"Yourls\\\"].json[\\\"shorturl\\\"]}}\", \"operation\": \"stats\"}, \"name\": \"Yourls1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.yourls\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [770, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Yourls\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Yourls1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Yourls\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this workflow to achieve the user's goal of first generating a short URL with Yourls and then immediately retrieving its statistics.\n\nEvery workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick it off. Looking at the prompt, it's not specified how it should be triggered automatically, so for development and testing, a manual trigger is ideal. That's why I'd first pull in an \"On clicking 'execute'\" node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and `typeVersion: 1` is standard for it. This simply gives us a button to start the execution flow whenever we want to test or run it manually. It's usually the very first node in a simple, one-off workflow like this.\n\nNow, the core task is to interact with Yourls. The user wants to \"Generate a short URL.\" This immediately tells me I need a Yourls node. I'll search for the Yourls node and drag it onto the canvas. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.yourls`, and this particular workflow uses `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nThis Yourls node will be responsible for the \"shorten\" operation. When I configure it, I need to provide the long URL that I want to shorten. So, I'd locate the `url` parameter and input the specific long URL there. The workflow JSON shows `https:\/\/medium.com\/n8n-io\/sending-sms-the-low-code-way-with-airtable-twilio-programmable-sms-and-n8n-90dbde74223e?source=---------4-----------------------` as an example. It's also good practice to include a title for the shortened URL, which helps with organization within Yourls, so I'd use the `additionalFields` option to set a `title`, like \"Sending SMS the Low-Code Way with Airtable, Twilio Programmable SMS, and n8n\". Of course, for this node to work, it needs to authenticate with my Yourls instance, so I'd make sure the `credentials` field is set up to point to my Yourls API key, generically referred to as \"Yourls\".\n\nNext, according to the prompt, after creating the short URL, I need to \"retrieve the statistics for that newly created short URL.\" This means I'll need *another* Yourls node, because getting statistics is a distinct operation from shortening a URL. So, I'd add a second Yourls node. This one will also be of type `n8n-nodes-base.yourls` and `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how do I connect these? The \"On clicking 'execute'\" node should connect its \"main\" output to the \"main\" input of the first Yourls node, as it initiates the entire process. Then, the first Yourls node (which shortens the URL) needs to pass its output to the second Yourls node (which gets the statistics). So, I'll connect the \"main\" output of the first Yourls node (named \"Yourls\" in the JSON) to the \"main\" input of the second Yourls node (named \"Yourls1\").\n\nConfiguring this second Yourls node is key. Its `operation` should be set to \"stats.\" The most crucial part is telling it *which* short URL to get statistics for. Since the previous Yourls node just created this short URL, its output will contain the newly generated short URL. I can dynamically pull this value. I'd configure the `shortUrl` parameter in this \"Yourls1\" node to use an expression: `={{$node[\"Yourls\"].json[\"shorturl\"]}}`. This expression tells n8n to look at the data output by the node named \"Yourls\" (the first Yourls node), access its JSON output, and then extract the value of the `shorturl` property. This ensures that the statistics are retrieved for the exact URL that was just shortened. Similar to the first Yourls node, this one also requires the Yourls API credentials, so I'd make sure the `credentials` field is set to \"Yourls\" as well.\n\nAnd that completes the flow. We start it manually, shorten a specific long URL, and then immediately fetch and display its statistics using the URL generated in the previous step." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow named 'Get Weather'. It should start with a manual trigger, then use a Set node named 'Edit Fields' to add a field called 'response' with the string value 'Weather is sunny'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get Weather\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [560, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"Weather is sunny\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, 340]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this workflow from the ground up, just as if I were building it in n8n.\n\nThe user prompt is pretty clear: I need a workflow named \"Get Weather\" that starts with a manual trigger, and then uses a `Set` node to add specific data.\n\nFirst things first, I need to name the workflow. The prompt specifies \"Get Weather,\" so that's what I'll call it. This helps keep things organized, especially when you have many workflows.\n\nNow, let's think about the starting point. The prompt says it should \"start with a manual trigger.\" In n8n, the most straightforward way to initiate a workflow manually is using the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node.\n\nSo, I'll add the `Execute Workflow Trigger` node. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it literally just sits there, waiting for someone to hit the \"Execute Workflow\" button or a similar manual trigger within the n8n UI. It doesn't require any complex configuration, as its purpose is simply to kick off the workflow. The `parameters` for this node are empty, which is exactly what I'd expect for a basic manual trigger \u2013 it just needs to exist to be clickable. I'll place it as the first node in my workflow, naturally, at the beginning of the visual flow.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"then use a Set node named 'Edit Fields' to add a field called 'response' with the string value 'Weather is sunny'.\" This tells me exactly what the next step should be and what type of node to use.\n\nA `Set` node is exactly what I need for this. Its primary function is to add, remove, or modify data fields within the workflow's items. It's incredibly versatile for shaping your data as it flows through.\n\nSo, I'll drag a `Set` node onto the canvas. According to the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is `3.4`. I'll name this node \"Edit Fields\" as requested. Now, for the configuration. Inside the `Set` node's parameters, there's an `assignments` array. This is where I define the new fields or modifications.\n\nI need to add a new field called `response`. So, within the `assignments`, I'll specify:\n* The `name` of the field will be \"response\".\n* The `value` of this field should be \"Weather is sunny\".\n* And importantly, I need to specify the `type` of this value, which is a `string`. This ensures n8n correctly interprets \"Weather is sunny\" as text.\n\nThis configuration precisely matches the JSON's `parameters.assignments` for the \"Edit Fields\" node. It's straightforward: the node will receive whatever (likely empty) data the trigger sends, and then it will augment that data by adding a new field named \"response\" containing the specified string.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The workflow needs to flow from the trigger to the `Set` node. The JSON's `connections` section shows that the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" has a `main` output that connects to the `main` input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This is a standard sequential connection. When the manual trigger is executed, it will pass control (and any initial, in this case, empty data) directly to the \"Edit Fields\" node, allowing it to perform its operation of adding the \"response\" field. The `Set` node will then output an item containing that \"response\" field, ready for any subsequent nodes in the workflow, though in this simple example, it's the final step." } { "prompt": "Generate an N8n workflow named \"My workflow\" that starts with a Schedule Trigger, connects to a \"Set\" node, then to a \"Set1\" node, with both \"Set\" nodes configured to set an empty string to a variable named \"other\", and ensure the workflow is initially inactive.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Schedule Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"2b0f25a2-9483-4579-9f6d-91b7ac2fcb71\", \"name\": \"other\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.3, \"position\": [920, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"2b0f25a2-9483-4579-9f6d-91b7ac2fcb71\", \"name\": \"other\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.3, \"position\": [1120, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Schedule Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's design this workflow step by step. The request is quite specific: a workflow named \"My workflow,\" starting with a Schedule Trigger, flowing into a \"Set\" node, then a \"Set1\" node, with both \"Set\" nodes populating an empty string to a variable called \"other,\" and importantly, the workflow should be inactive initially.\n\nFirst, I'll establish the overall workflow. The name is straightforward: \"My workflow\". I'll make sure to set the `active` status to `false` right from the beginning, as per the requirement for it to be initially inactive. This is a crucial setting that determines whether the workflow will run automatically or not.\n\nNow, let's think about the first node. The prompt clearly states it needs to start with a Schedule Trigger.\nSo, the very first node I'll add is a **Schedule Trigger** node.\n* Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`.\n* Why this node type? Because it's explicitly requested as the starting point and its purpose is to initiate a workflow based on a predefined schedule or a manual trigger. It's the standard way to kick off time-based or manually initiated workflows in n8n.\n* For its configuration, the JSON shows `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This indicates a Schedule Trigger is present, but no specific recurring interval (like daily, hourly, etc.) is defined. It's a very basic setup for the trigger itself, likely implying it might be triggered manually or has a default \"run once\" type of setting if activated. I'll give it the name \"Schedule Trigger\" as provided. Its position seems to be around `[720, 300]` on the canvas.\n\nNext, the prompt says it connects to a \"Set\" node. The purpose of this \"Set\" node is to configure a variable.\nSo, the second node in the flow will be a **Set** node.\n* Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and the `typeVersion` is `3.3`.\n* Why this node type? The `Set` node is ideal for manipulating data flowing through a workflow. In this case, it's used to add or modify data fields (variables) to the incoming items. The request specifies setting a variable, which is precisely what this node does best.\n* This \"Set\" node needs to connect directly from the \"Schedule Trigger\" node. I'll establish a `main` connection from the \"Schedule Trigger\" to this \"Set\" node, ensuring that any data (or lack thereof, as a schedule trigger typically just passes a single empty item) from the trigger flows into it.\n* Now, for its configuration: The prompt states it needs to \"set an empty string to a variable named 'other'\". Looking at the JSON, the `parameters` for this node confirm this: `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"...\", \"name\": \"other\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}}`. This is exactly what's needed. We're telling the node to create or update a field named `other` and assign an empty string (`\"\"`) to it, specifying its type as `string`. This is a straightforward data manipulation. The node will be named \"Set\" as requested, and its position is `[920, 300]`.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies \"then to a 'Set1' node, with both 'Set' nodes configured to set an empty string to a variable named 'other'\".\nSo, the third and final processing node will be another **Set** node, but named \"Set1\".\n* Its type will also be `n8n-nodes-base.set`, with `typeVersion` `3.3`.\n* Why another `Set` node? Because the requirement is to perform the same data manipulation (setting the 'other' variable) again, potentially to ensure it's set or to demonstrate a multi-step data transformation. It could be that this is a placeholder for a more complex operation later, or simply an explicit step.\n* This \"Set1\" node will connect from the first \"Set\" node. Again, a `main` connection from \"Set\" to \"Set1\" will ensure the flow continues sequentially.\n* The configuration for this \"Set1\" node is identical to the previous \"Set\" node as per the prompt: `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"...\", \"name\": \"other\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}}`. So, it will also set the `other` variable to an empty string. This ensures consistency or provides a point where the value could theoretically be re-evaluated or changed, although in this specific case, it's setting the same value again. The node is named \"Set1\" and positioned at `[1120, 300]`.\n\nThis completes the required nodes and their connections. The overall workflow `active` status is `false`, fulfilling that initial requirement. The `pinData` section in the JSON simply shows some example input data that might have been processed by the trigger, but it's not part of the design or configuration of the nodes themselves. The other fields like `id`, `versionId`, `meta`, and `tags` are standard workflow metadata." } { "prompt": "Here are a couple of options for a prompt:\n\n1. \"Create an n8n workflow that uses an Error Trigger node to send a Mailgun email notification.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to set up a system that automatically sends out an email notification via Mailgun whenever an error pops up in another workflow. The email needs to be informative, including the name of the workflow that failed, the error message itself, and the all-important stack trace for debugging.\n\nSo, first things first, how do we even *catch* an error in n8n? We can't just randomly check. We need a specific trigger that activates when an error occurs. Looking at the available nodes, the \"Error Trigger\" node seems like the absolute perfect fit for this. It's designed exactly for this purpose \u2013 to kick off a workflow when an error happens elsewhere in the system.\n\nSo, I'm going to start by adding an \"Error Trigger\" node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.errorTrigger` and it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is going to be the entry point for our error handling workflow. It doesn't need any special configuration parameters; it simply listens for error events. It's a foundational piece for any robust error-handling strategy in n8n.\n\nNow that we have our error caught, what's the next step? The requirement is to send a Mailgun email notification. So, naturally, the next node in our workflow should be a Mailgun node. This is the node that will handle the actual sending of the email.\n\nI'll add the \"Mailgun\" node right after the \"Error Trigger.\" Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.mailgun`, and it's also `typeVersion: 1`. These versions typically indicate the schema or capabilities of the node, and for these common nodes, version 1 is usually the stable and expected one for basic operations.\n\nThe connection between these two nodes is pretty straightforward. The \"Error Trigger\" node, when it activates, will output data about the error it caught. This data needs to be passed directly to the \"Mailgun\" node so it can construct the email. So, I'll connect the \"main\" output of the \"Error Trigger\" to the \"main\" input of the \"Mailgun\" node. This ensures the error information flows correctly.\n\nNow for the crucial part: configuring the Mailgun node to send the right email.\nFirst, the Mailgun node will require credentials. This is where you would link up your Mailgun API keys or similar authentication information. It's a standard security measure for external services like Mailgun.\n\nNext, we need to define the email's recipient and sender. The Mailgun node has fields for `toEmail` and `fromEmail`. These would typically be populated with the email addresses where you want the notifications sent *from* and *to*. For this workflow, they are left empty, indicating they would need to be manually configured by the user setting up the workflow.\n\nThen, let's tackle the subject line. The requirement is that the subject should dynamically include the workflow name. The \"Error Trigger\" node provides a lot of useful data about the error, including information about the workflow where the error occurred. Specifically, it exposes the workflow's name under `workflow.name`. So, for the `subject` parameter of the Mailgun node, I'll use an expression: `=Workflow Error: {{$node[\"Error Trigger\"].data[\"workflow\"][\"name\"]}}`. This dynamic expression ensures that every error email clearly states which workflow encountered an issue, making it instantly identifiable.\n\nFinally, the email body. This is where we need to include the actual error message and the stack trace. Again, the \"Error Trigger\" node is incredibly helpful here. It provides the error message under `execution.error.message` and the stack trace under `execution.error.stack`. To make the body readable, I'll format it a bit. For the `text` parameter of the Mailgun node, I'll set up another expression: `=Error: {{$node[\"Error Trigger\"].data[\"execution\"][\"error\"][\"message\"]}}\\n\\nStack Trace:\\n{{$node[\"Error Trigger\"].data[\"execution\"][\"error\"][\"stack\"]}}`. The `\\n` characters are important here; they'll insert newlines, making the error message and the stack trace appear on separate lines, improving readability within the email.\n\nAnd that's it. The \"Error Trigger\" catches the error, pipes all the relevant details to the \"Mailgun\" node, and the \"Mailgun\" node, using expressions, pulls out the specific pieces of information needed\u2014workflow name for the subject, and error message and stack trace for the body\u2014and sends the email. It's a self-contained, robust error notification system." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, uses a DebugHelper, then filters incoming data to ensure the 'email' field contains a period.

The prompt is pretty clear about the sequence of operations: a manual start, a debug step, filtering, and then a Telegram message. I'll build this out step by step.\n\nFirst things first, the workflow needs a starting point, something to kick it off. The prompt explicitly says it \"starts with a manual trigger.\" So, the most logical first node is a manual trigger. I'd choose the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. It's perfect for initiating a workflow on demand, typically for testing or if you want to run it only when you explicitly press a button. The `typeVersion` is 1, which is the standard for this. No special parameters needed here, it just sits there waiting for the 'Test workflow' button to be clicked. It provides a simple, initial data item, or you can even provide custom data if you want to simulate specific input.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions using a `DebugHelper`. This is a really handy node, especially during development or when you're trying to understand what data is flowing through your workflow. After the manual trigger, I'd connect its 'main' output to a `DebugHelper` node. So, the data from our manual trigger will go straight into it. The `DebugHelper` node type is `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper`, and again, `typeVersion` 1 is appropriate here. The `DebugHelper` node has a `category` parameter set to \"randomData\" in this case. This is useful because it will automatically generate some sample data for us, which is excellent for testing our filter later without having to manually input data. If I were building this without the specific instruction for \"randomData,\" I might initially leave it as default or use \"data from input\" if I expected the previous node to provide actual data, but since the prompt mentions *using* a DebugHelper and the JSON specifies randomData, it's clear we're adding some simulated data here. This is good because it ensures we have an 'email' field for our filter to work with.\n\nNow, the core logic: \"filters incoming data to ensure the 'email' field contains a period.\" This screams for a `Filter` node. So, I'll take the output from the `DebugHelper` and connect it to a `Filter` node. The node type is `n8n-nodes-base.filter`, and the `typeVersion` is 2. This version of the filter node typically offers more robust and flexible condition settings, which is great. For configuration, I need to set up a condition. The prompt specifies \"the 'email' field contains a period.\" So, I'd add a new condition. The 'leftValue' will be an expression pointing to the email field, which is `={{ $json.email }}`. This tells the filter to look at the 'email' property within the current JSON data item. The 'operator' should be \"contains\" because we want to check if it *contains* a specific character or string. And the 'rightValue' for that operator will simply be \".\". This means, \"Does the email field contain a period?\" The `caseSensitive` option is set to `true`, which makes sense for an email; a period is a period regardless of case. The `combinator` is \"and\", which is the default and fine as we only have one condition here. This filter node will output data only if the condition is met, effectively filtering out any items where the email field doesn't have a period. This is crucial for ensuring valid-looking email addresses before proceeding.\n\nFinally, \"If the condition is met, send a message via Telegram.\" So, if data passes through our `Filter` node's main output, it should go straight to a `Telegram` node. The node type is `n8n-nodes-base.telegram`, with `typeVersion` 1.1. This node is designed specifically for interacting with the Telegram API. To configure it, I'd need to set up the `chatId` where the message will be sent. For example, a chat ID like \"123123\" is provided in the JSON; in a real-world scenario, this would be the specific chat or channel ID. Then, there's the `text` field for the message itself. Here, it's set to \"1123123\". In a real workflow, this would likely be a more informative message, perhaps using expressions to include data from the filtered item, like the email address itself (`={{ $json.email }}`). There are `additionalFields` options, but for this basic setup, they are not populated, implying a simple text message. This node is the final step, sending out a notification only when an email address successfully passes our validation check. And that completes the workflow chain." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, followed by a 'Set' node, and then another 'Set' node named 'Set1'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"ff739753-9d6e-46a7-94d3-25bd03dd4973\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow designed and built, step by step. The goal here is pretty straightforward: a manual start, then two 'Set' nodes in sequence.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, something to kick it off. The prompt specifically asks for a manual trigger, which makes perfect sense for a workflow you want to run on demand. So, my initial thought immediately goes to the \"Manual Trigger\" node. Looking at the provided JSON, that aligns perfectly; the first node listed is indeed `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is ideal because it does exactly what its name implies: it allows you to start the workflow simply by clicking the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n editor or via a webhook if configured (though for a manual trigger, it's typically the button). It doesn't require any incoming data or external events; it just needs a human to initiate it. Its parameters, as shown in the JSON, are empty (`parameters: {}`), which is typical for a basic manual trigger \u2013 it just fires off an empty item to start the flow. I'll place this node first in the canvas, perhaps around `[600, 580]` as indicated by the JSON's `position`.\n\nNow that we have our starting point, the next requirement is \"followed by a 'Set' node.\" The 'Set' node is incredibly versatile in n8n; it's used to add, rename, or remove data fields on items as they pass through the workflow. It's like a data transformation utility. Given the prompt just says \"a 'Set' node\" without specifying what data to set, a basic, empty 'Set' node is what's needed. Looking at the JSON, the very next node is `name: \"Set\"`, `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"`, and `typeVersion: 1`. This is exactly what we need.\n\nTo connect it, the output of our \"On clicking 'execute'\" manual trigger needs to feed directly into the input of this new \"Set\" node. In n8n, the 'main' output typically connects to the 'main' input of the next node to pass along the data item(s). The JSON confirms this connection: `\"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. So, the manual trigger's single output connects to the first input of the \"Set\" node. As for its configuration, the JSON shows `parameters: {\"options\": {}}`. This means it's a 'Set' node without any specific fields being added or manipulated, which is fine if we're just structuring the flow as requested. If we needed to add, say, a timestamp or a default status, we'd configure those fields within its parameters. I'll position it just after the manual trigger, probably around `[820, 580]`, keeping a neat left-to-right flow.\n\nFinally, the prompt asks for \"another 'Set' node named 'Set1'.\" This is similar to the previous step. We need another instance of the `Set` node. The JSON's third node confirms this: `name: \"Set1\"`, `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"`, again `typeVersion: 1`. It's good to stick with `typeVersion: 1` here for consistency and because it's the version specified. Using a different version, if available, might introduce different functionalities or parameter structures, so it's best to keep to the specified version unless there's a compelling reason to upgrade or downgrade.\n\nThis \"Set1\" node needs to come *after* our first \"Set\" node. So, the output of the first \"Set\" node will connect to the input of \"Set1.\" Again, the 'main' output of the first 'Set' node will go to the 'main' input of \"Set1.\" The JSON's `connections` object verifies this too: `\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This ensures the data item, which was initiated by the manual trigger and then potentially passed through the first (empty) 'Set' node, now moves to this second 'Set' node. Just like the previous one, its parameters are empty (`parameters: {\"options\": {}}`), meaning it's configured without any specific data operations, serving primarily as a placeholder or a step in the sequence. I'll place this node further along, at `[1040, 580]`, maintaining that linear progression.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. We've got a manual start, a sequential connection to a 'Set' node, and then another sequential connection to a second 'Set' node named 'Set1'. The connections are all simple `main` to `main`, passing the workflow item along.

I'll build this out, thinking aloud as I go, based on the provided JSON structure.\n\nFirst things first, the user wants the workflow to start with a manual trigger. So, that's the very first node I'll need to add. I'm looking for a node that lets me initiate the workflow with a simple click, which is perfect for testing or for scenarios where an event-based trigger isn't needed.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThis `manualTrigger` node is ideal because its purpose is exactly what the name suggests: it allows the workflow to be executed manually. It doesn't listen for external events or schedules; you just press a button in the n8n interface, and it starts. Its type version is 1, which is standard for this kind of basic trigger. I'll name it something descriptive, like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" as per the JSON, so it's clear what it does. There aren't many parameters to configure for this node, as its primary function is just to kick off the execution flow. It will output a single item, which is essentially a signal to start the subsequent operations.\n\nNow that I have my starting point, the prompt specifies \"followed by two sequential Gmail 'get' operations.\" This means the manual trigger needs to lead into a Gmail node, and then that first Gmail node needs to lead into a second one.\n\nSo, the next step is to add the first Gmail node. This node will be responsible for performing a 'get' operation with Gmail.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.gmail`\n* **Type Version:** `2.1`\n\nI'll connect this new Gmail node directly from the output of my `manualTrigger` node. The connection will be a 'main' connection, meaning the data (or rather, the execution flow) from the trigger will pass directly to this Gmail node. As for configuration, the prompt specifies a 'get' operation. So, I'll set the `operation` parameter to `get`. This means this node will be used to retrieve emails or email information from a Gmail account. I'd also need to ensure that the necessary Gmail credentials are set up and selected for this node, but I won't go into specific sensitive values. It just needs to know which Gmail account to interact with. For its name, the JSON calls it \"Gmail\", which is straightforward.\n\nNow for the second Gmail operation. The prompt explicitly says \"two sequential Gmail 'get' operations,\" so this second one needs to run *after* the first one.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.gmail`\n* **Type Version:** `2.1`\n\nI'll take the main output of the first \"Gmail\" node and connect it as the input to this new, second Gmail node. This ensures the sequential execution: the second Gmail operation won't start until the first one has completed its task. Just like the previous Gmail node, its `operation` parameter will also be set to `get`. This will allow it to perform another retrieval from Gmail. This could be useful if, for example, the first 'get' operation retrieves a list of message IDs, and the second 'get' operation then uses those IDs to fetch the full content of specific messages, or if it's querying a different set of emails entirely. It's crucial that this node also has the correct credentials configured, just like the first one. The JSON indicates this node has an empty name, which is common in n8n; it would likely appear as \"Gmail1\" in the UI by default. The type version is also `2.1`, consistent with the previous Gmail node.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow as per the requirements: a manual trigger followed by two sequential Gmail 'get' operations. The connections ensure the correct flow of execution. The `manualTrigger` starts it, the first `Gmail` node performs its 'get' operation, and once that's done, it passes control to the second `Gmail` node to perform its 'get' operation." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named \"Webhook wait set\" that starts with a Webhook node, waits for 2 seconds using a Wait node, and then proceeds to a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Webhook wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [940, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed.\n\nFirst things first, the user wants an inactive workflow named \"Webhook wait set\". So, right off the bat, I know the overall workflow configuration needs to reflect `active: false` and `name: \"Webhook wait set\"`. That's important for the initial setup.\n\nNow, let's think about the sequence of operations. The prompt says it \"starts with a Webhook node, waits for 2 seconds using a Wait node, and then proceeds to a Set node.\" This gives me the exact order and types of nodes I need.\n\nMy starting point is always the trigger. The prompt specifies a \"Webhook node.\" This makes perfect sense because it's a workflow that's meant to be initiated externally, perhaps by another system sending data or a user clicking a link. So, I'll add a Webhook node first.\n\nLooking at the JSON, I see `{\"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, ...}`. This confirms my choice. It's a standard `Webhook` node, `typeVersion 1`. I wouldn't expect a different version to change its core behavior as a trigger, but it's good to note the specific version being used.\nFor its configuration, it needs a unique path to listen on. The JSON shows `path: \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\"`. This would be its unique identifier, making it reachable from outside. The `options` parameter is empty, indicating no special handling like response modes are set, which is fine for a simple trigger. I'll place this node at `[500, 580]` on my canvas, which seems like a good starting point visually.\n\nNext up, the prompt clearly states \"waits for 2 seconds using a Wait node.\" This is a straightforward requirement. After the webhook receives data, I need to pause the execution for a set duration. A `Wait` node is precisely designed for this.\n\nChecking the JSON, I find `{\"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, ...}`. Yep, that's the one. It's `typeVersion 1`, which is the standard.\nFor its configuration, the prompt specifies \"2 seconds.\" So, I'd configure the `amount` parameter to `2` and the `unit` parameter to `\"seconds\"`. This directly translates to `{\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}` in the JSON parameters. Perfect.\nNow, how does it connect? Logically, the Webhook triggers the Wait. So, there needs to be a connection from the \"Webhook\" node's `main` output to the \"Wait\" node's `main` input. The JSON confirms this with `connections: {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. I'll position this node to the right of the Webhook, at `[720, 580]`, keeping the flow linear.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"and then proceeds to a Set node.\" After the wait, the workflow should do something with the data, or at least pass it along in a structured way. A `Set` node is a very common and versatile node in n8n. It allows you to add new fields, modify existing ones, or just pass data through. Even if no specific data manipulation is described, it's a good generic placeholder for further processing or for explicitly defining output.\n\nFrom the JSON: `{\"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, ...}`. This is exactly what I'd expect. It's `typeVersion 1`, which is the current common version.\nThe `parameters` for this Set node show `{\"options\": {}}`. This means it's set up as a default Set node without any specific fields being added or modified *yet*. It's ready to be configured later if needed, but for now, it simply marks the end of the specified sequence.\nThe connection from the `Wait` node to the `Set` node makes logical sense. After waiting, the flow should proceed to the next step. So, I need a connection from the \"Wait\" node's `main` output to the \"Set\" node's `main` input. The JSON shows `connections: {\"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This is correct. I'll place this node further right, at `[940, 580]`, maintaining the horizontal flow.\n\nSo, to recap, I've got a Webhook triggering, then a 2-second wait, and finally a Set node. The connections are sequential, and the workflow is marked as `inactive: false` as per the initial requirement. The other workflow properties like `pinData`, `settings`, `versionId`, `id`, `meta`, and `tags` are just standard metadata for the workflow itself, not directly impacting the logical flow specified by the user prompt, and they are either empty or generic identifiers." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts manually, then fetches up to 10 people from the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node.

The user prompt asks for a workflow that starts manually, fetches some customer data, and then adds new properties to it using a Set node.\n\nFirst things first, we need a way to kick off the workflow. Looking at the requirements, it needs to start manually. The perfect fit for this is a manual trigger. So, I'd start by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is really straightforward; it doesn't need any special configurations. It just sits there, waiting for someone to click \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n interface. It's the essential starting point for any workflow that isn't event-driven or scheduled.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step, according to the prompt, is to fetch up to 10 people from the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node. This tells me I need a node that interacts with that specific training datastore. So, I'd connect the **Manual Trigger** node to a **Customer Datastore (n8n training)** node. This node has a `type` of `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` and `typeVersion` of `1`. For its configuration, the prompt specifies fetching \"people\" and \"up to 10\". So, within its parameters, I'd set the `operation` to `getAllPeople`. And crucially, I need to limit the number of results to 10, so I'd set the `limit` parameter to `10`. This ensures we don't accidentally pull an excessive amount of data if the datastore contains many entries, which is good practice for performance. The data from the manual trigger is just a single empty item, which is then passed to this Customer Datastore node, effectively telling it to run its operation and fetch the data.\n\nAfter we've fetched the customer data, the prompt specifies using a Set node to add new properties. This sounds like a data transformation step. We want to take the data items coming out of the Customer Datastore node and enrich them with new information. The **Set** node is ideal for this kind of task. So, I'd connect the **Customer Datastore (n8n training)** node's main output to the input of a **Set** node. This **Set** node has a `type` of `n8n-nodes-base.set` and a `typeVersion` of `1`.\n\nNow, for the Set node's configuration. The prompt says we need to add a number `123` to `objectValue.prop1` and a string `someText` to `objectValue.prop2`, specifically using dot notation. This is important. In the Set node's parameters, under `values`, I'd need to add two entries. For the first one, I'd choose `number` as the type, set its `name` to `objectValue.prop1`, and its `value` to `123`. For the second, I'd choose `string` as the type, set its `name` to `objectValue.prop2`, and its `value` to `someText`. To ensure that `objectValue.prop1` and `objectValue.prop2` are treated as nested properties, I *must* enable the `dotNotation` option within the Set node's `options` parameters. If I didn't enable `dotNotation`, the Set node would just create new top-level properties named \"objectValue.prop1\" and \"objectValue.prop2\", which isn't what we want. We want to create an `objectValue` object that then contains `prop1` and `prop2`. So, enabling `dotNotation` is key here. Each item (person) that comes from the Customer Datastore will then have these new properties added to it, ready for whatever the next step in the workflow might be." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow where a manual trigger directly executes workflow ID '1' using an 'Execute Workflow' node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [220, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"workflowId\": \"1\"}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [410, 340]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Execute Workflow\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is pretty clear: we need a manual trigger to kick off another workflow by its ID.\n\nFirst off, I need a way to actually *start* this workflow on demand. The user specifically asked for a \"manual trigger\". Looking through the available trigger nodes in n8n, the most straightforward and direct option for this is the `Manual Trigger` node. It literally puts a button in the UI that, when clicked, fires off the workflow. So, that's my starting point.\n\nI'd drag an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node onto the canvas. I'll name it something descriptive like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's clear what it does at a glance. For this particular node type, `typeVersion` 1 is standard, and there aren't any specific parameters to configure for its basic operation, so its `parameters` object will just be empty. It simply outputs a single item when manually triggered, ready to pass control to the next node.\n\nNext, the prompt states that this trigger should \"directly execute workflow ID '1'\". This immediately tells me what the very next node needs to be. n8n has a dedicated node for exactly this purpose: the `Execute Workflow` node. This is perfect because it allows one workflow to call and run another, which is precisely what's needed here.\n\nSo, I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow` node right after my manual trigger. I'll give it the name \"Execute Workflow\" as per the JSON, which is pretty standard. Its `typeVersion` is also 1.\n\nNow, the crucial part for the `Execute Workflow` node is configuration. It needs to know *which* workflow to execute. The prompt is explicit: \"workflow ID '1'\". So, within the parameters for this \"Execute Workflow\" node, I'd set the `workflowId` property to `\"1\"`. This is absolutely essential; without this parameter, the node wouldn't know what to run. Any other parameters, like whether to wait for the sub-workflow to finish or how to pass data, aren't specified, so I'll leave those at their defaults or simply omit them as the JSON implies. The main goal is just to trigger that specific workflow by its ID.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The whole point of the `Manual Trigger` is to initiate the process that leads to executing the other workflow. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of my \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the `main` input of the \"Execute Workflow\" node. This ensures that when someone clicks the trigger button, the workflow immediately proceeds to execute workflow ID '1'. The connection simply passes the execution flow, indicating that the `Execute Workflow` node should now activate.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to create a webhook endpoint, fetch content from a specific Google Doc, and then send that content back as a plain text response through the same webhook.\n\nSo, where do we start? The very first thing we need is an entry point for our workflow \u2013 something that kicks it off when an external system calls it. Given the requirement for a webhook at a specific path, the most logical choice, and indeed the only choice for this type of trigger, is the **Webhook** node.\n\nI'd drag out a **Webhook** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and it's currently at `typeVersion 2`. Version 2 is stable and widely used, so I'm confident with that. Now, how do we configure it? The user prompt specifies the path: `\/final-ai-project-presentation-structure`. So, I'd set the `path` parameter to `\"final-ai-project-presentation-structure\"`. This makes sure that when a request comes to that specific URL on our n8n instance, this workflow gets triggered.\n\nNext, for the `responseMode`, it's important to set this correctly. Since we're going to fetch content and *then* respond, we can't just send an immediate success response. We need to hold the webhook open until we have the Google Doc content. So, I'll set `responseMode` to `\"responseNode\"`. This means we'll use a dedicated \"Respond to Webhook\" node later to send the actual reply. This is crucial for workflows where the response depends on actions taken *after* the initial trigger.\n\nOkay, so the webhook is set up and ready to receive requests. What's the very next step after receiving a request? The prompt states we need to \"get the content from the Google Doc\". This immediately tells me I need an integration with Google Docs. n8n has a specific node for that: the **Google Docs** node.\n\nI'll connect the `main` output of my Webhook node to the `main` input of this new **Google Docs** node. The type for this is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and it's at `typeVersion 2`. Version 2 generally offers good features and stability for Google Docs interactions.\n\nNow, configuring the **Google Docs** node. The operation we need is straightforward: `\"get\"`. We're not creating, updating, or deleting; we're just retrieving content. So, I'll select the `operation` as `\"get\"`. Then, it asks for the `documentURL`. The prompt provides this specific URL: `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/14U1NSZnBeyIDZX5fU8wXXC7nkX3nGyWNPNiQLYBc6DI\/edit`. This field would be configured with that URL. Of course, to make this work, the node will need credentials. It uses a `googleDocsOAuth2Api` credential, which would have been pre-configured with the necessary Google account access to read from Google Docs.\n\nSo, at this point, the workflow can receive a webhook call, and then it will fetch the content of the specified Google Doc. The `Google Docs` node will output the content of the document, typically in a field like `content` or `text`.\n\nFinally, we need to send that content back to the original caller of the webhook. Since we set the `responseMode` of the initial Webhook node to `\"responseNode\"`, we need a dedicated node to handle the response. That's exactly what the **Respond to Webhook** node is for.\n\nI'll connect the `main` output of the **Google Docs** node to the `main` input of this new **Respond to Webhook** node. This node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and its `typeVersion` is `1.1`. This version is perfectly suitable for simple text responses.\n\nNow, for the configuration of the **Respond to Webhook** node. The prompt specifies \"respond to the webhook with that document's content as plain text.\" This means two things:\n1. The `respondWith` parameter should be set to `\"text\"`. This tells n8n to send the response body as plain text, setting the appropriate `Content-Type` header.\n2. The `responseBody` needs to be the content we got from the **Google Docs** node. This is where an expression comes in handy. Looking at the JSON, it uses `={{ $json.content }}`. This is a common pattern in n8n where the previous node's output data is available in the `$json` variable. Assuming the `Google Docs` node puts the document content into a property named `content` on its output item, this expression will correctly retrieve and use it as the response body.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow now has its trigger, its action, and its response mechanism all in place, connected sequentially. It's a simple, linear flow that directly addresses all requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON named 'GetOnboardingFileMultimodalPrompting' that's tagged with 'Onboarding', 'PromptEngineer', 'Files', 'Day 2'.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to create an n8n workflow that starts when a specific URL is hit, then goes and fetches some content from a Google Doc, and finally sends that content back as a response. This sounds like a straightforward sequence of operations.\n\nFirst things first, for any workflow that needs to be triggered by an external event, especially an HTTP request, we absolutely need a webhook. So, the very first node I'd reach for would be the **Webhook** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and looking at the provided structure, it's using `typeVersion: 2`. This is perfect as it allows us to define a custom path and handle the response later in the workflow. I'd configure its path, which in this case would be something like `Onboarding\/PromptEngineering\/MultimodalPrompting`. This makes the webhook's endpoint clean and descriptive. Also, it's crucial to set its `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node not to immediately send a response, but to wait for a subsequent `Respond to Webhook` node to handle the output, which is exactly what we need for this workflow.\n\nOnce the webhook is triggered, the next logical step is to get the content from the Google Doc. So, the data flow needs to go from the Webhook node to a node capable of interacting with Google Docs. Naturally, the **Google Docs** node comes to mind. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and it's using `typeVersion: 2`. This node is specifically designed for this kind of integration. I'd connect the main output of the Webhook node to the input of this Google Docs node.\n\nNow, for configuring the Google Docs node, the primary operation we need to perform is to `get` the content of a document. So, I'd set the `operation` parameter to `get`. Then, it needs to know *which* document to retrieve. This is where a document URL would be configured. It's a direct input for the Google Docs node, so I'd paste the specific document URL there. Of course, to make this node work, it would also require proper authentication, likely through an OAuth2 credential, which would be linked up separately to grant n8n access to the Google account.\n\nAfter the Google Docs node successfully retrieves the content, we have the data we need. The final step is to send this content back to whoever triggered the initial webhook. This is where the `Respond to Webhook` node comes into play. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and it's using `typeVersion: 1.1`. I'd connect the main output of the Google Docs node to the input of this `Respond to Webhook` node.\n\nFor the `Respond to Webhook` node's configuration, we need to specify how we want to send the data. Since we're retrieving document content, sending it as `text` seems most appropriate. So, I'd set `respondWith` to `text`. The critical part here is passing the actual document content. The Google Docs node typically outputs the document's content in a field, often named `content`. So, I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` in the `responseBody` parameter. This dynamically pulls the `content` field from the data that the Google Docs node passed down, ensuring the retrieved document text is what's sent back to the client.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps it up for the core logic. The workflow starts with the `Webhook` listening, then `Google Docs` fetches the data, and finally, `Respond to Webhook` sends it all back. Simple, sequential, and achieves the desired outcome. For good measure, the workflow would also be named something descriptive like \"GetOnboardingFileMultimodalPrompting\" and tagged with relevant categories such as \"Onboarding\", \"PromptEngineer\", \"Files\", and \"Day 2\" for easy discoverability and organization within the n8n environment." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that begins with a manual trigger.

This immediately tells me what my first node has to be. I'll reach for the **Manual Trigger node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, typeVersion: `1`)**. This is the perfect starting point because it allows someone to kick off the workflow on demand, simply by clicking a button in the n8n interface. It doesn't need any external events or schedules; it's purely for direct, manual initiation. At this stage, it's just a simple trigger, so its parameters are usually left as default, as there's nothing specific to configure for its basic function. Its output will be an empty item, which is fine, as we're about to add data.\n\nNow, the prompt then says this trigger should connect to a Set node, and that Set node needs to store a specific XML string into a field named 'body'. So, my next logical step is to add a **Set node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.set`, typeVersion: `3.2`)**. The Set node is excellent for adding, modifying, or removing fields from incoming items, which is exactly what we need to do here: introduce new data.\n\nI'll connect the output of my Manual Trigger node to the input of this Set node. The connection will be a standard 'main' connection, meaning the item (or items, though in this case, just one empty item) flowing out of the Manual Trigger will feed directly into the Set node for processing.\n\nFor the configuration of the Set node, the key part is defining the field and its value. The prompt is very specific: \"stores a multi-book XML library string into a field named 'body'\". So, within the Set node's parameters, I'll go to the 'Fields' section. I need to add a new field, and I'll name it `body`, exactly as requested. For the value, since it's an XML string, I'll choose the 'String' type for the field. Then, I'll paste the entire multi-book XML library string directly into the value box for that `body` field.\n\nThe XML string itself is:\n`<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?> <library> <book> <title>Introduction to XML<\/title> <author>John Doe<\/author> <publication_year>2020<\/publication_year> <isbn>1234567890<\/isbn> <\/book> <book> <title>Data Science Basics<\/title> <author>Jane Smith<\/author> <publication_year>2019<\/publication_year> <isbn>0987654321<\/isbn> <\/book> <book> <title>Programming in Python<\/title> <author>Bob Johnson<\/author> <publication_year>2021<\/publication_year> <isbn>5432109876<\/isbn> <\/book> <\/library>`\n\nSo, the Set node will receive an empty item from the trigger, and then it will transform it by adding a new field named `body` which contains this complete XML string. This ensures that any subsequent nodes in the workflow will have access to this XML data under the `body` field. This structure is quite straightforward and effective for injecting specific data at the start of a workflow.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the requirements. The workflow begins with the manual trigger, which then passes its output to the Set node, and the Set node successfully creates the `body` field with the specified XML content." } { "prompt": "Create an active n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile Error Handling and Debugging\" that triggers via a webhook at `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/ErrorHandlingAndDebugging`.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to create an active n8n workflow that gets triggered by a webhook, retrieves some content from a Google Doc, and then sends that content back as a response to the original webhook. We also need to make sure it's properly named and tagged.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the prompt, it explicitly states it needs to \"trigger via a webhook.\" So, that's definitely where we'll begin.\n\nI'll add a **Webhook node**, specifically the `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` type. The provided JSON uses `typeVersion 2`, which is a good stable version for webhooks. This node is perfect because it allows the workflow to be activated by an incoming HTTP request.\n\nNow, how should we configure this Webhook node? The prompt specifies a precise path: `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/ErrorHandlingAndDebugging`. So, I'll set the `path` parameter to that exact string. This ensures the webhook only triggers when a request comes in on that specific endpoint.\n\nAnother crucial setting for the Webhook node is how it handles the response. The prompt implies we'll be sending content back, and the JSON shows a \"Respond to Webhook\" node later. This tells me the Webhook node itself shouldn't send an immediate default response. Instead, it should wait for a subsequent node to handle it. So, I'll set the `responseMode` parameter to `responseNode`. This hands off the responsibility of responding to another node downstream, which is exactly what we need for returning the Google Doc content.\n\nAlright, so the webhook is set up. What's next? After the workflow is triggered, the core task is to \"retrieve content from the Google Docs URL.\" This immediately points me to a Google Docs specific node.\n\nI'll connect a **Google Docs node** after the Webhook node. This makes sense because the webhook receives the trigger, and then the workflow immediately proceeds to fetch the document. The JSON confirms this connection. For this node, we'll use the `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` type, and it's `typeVersion 2`. This node is ideal because it's built to interact directly with Google Docs, handling authentication and different operations like getting document content.\n\nRegarding its configuration, the primary action here is to \"retrieve content,\" so the `operation` parameter should definitely be set to `get`. This tells the node we want to pull information *from* a document. Then, we need to specify which document. The prompt mentions a specific Google Docs URL. While I won't put the exact URL here, I would configure the `documentURL` parameter with the appropriate Google Docs shareable link.\n\nFor authentication, the prompt also states \"using a Google Docs credential.\" So, I'll make sure the `credentials` parameter is configured with a valid Google Docs OAuth2 API credential. This credential would handle the necessary authentication with Google to access the document. Without proper credentials, the node wouldn't be able to fetch the content.\n\nSo far, we've got the trigger and the data retrieval. The final piece of the puzzle, according to the prompt, is to \"respond to the webhook with the document's `$json.content`.\" This means we need a node specifically designed to send a response back to the waiting webhook.\n\nI'll connect a **Respond to Webhook node** directly after the Google Docs node. This connection makes perfect sense: once the Google Docs node successfully retrieves the content, the very next step is to send that content back to the client that triggered the webhook. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, and the JSON shows `typeVersion 1.1`. This node is specifically designed to work in conjunction with a Webhook node that has its `responseMode` set to `responseNode`.\n\nNow, how do we configure this response? The prompt is very specific: \"respond to the webhook with the document's `$json.content`.\" This means we need to pass the content retrieved by the Google Docs node directly into the response body. So, for the `respondWith` parameter, `text` is a good choice, as the document content is essentially text. And for the `responseBody` parameter, I'll use an expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression dynamically pulls the `content` field from the data item output by the previous node (the Google Docs node), which is exactly what we need. The Google Docs node, when set to `get` operation, typically outputs the document's text content in a field like `content`.\n\nFinally, just a quick check on the workflow's overall settings from the prompt. It needs to be \"active,\" which is set as `active: true` in the JSON. And it needs to be tagged with \"Day 2\", \"AI Onboarding\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding.\" The JSON includes these `tags` in the workflow's metadata, ensuring it's discoverable and organized within the n8n environment.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the whole flow. The Webhook triggers, the Google Docs node fetches the content, and the Respond to Webhook node sends it back, completing the request-response cycle." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON featuring a Chat Trigger connected to a Basic LLM Chain, which is powered by an Ollama Chat Model configured to use `llama3.2:latest` with a \"Local Ollama service\" credential.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Demo workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Chat Trigger\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [660, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Basic LLM Chain\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chainLlm\", \"typeVersion\": 1.3, \"position\": [880, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"model\": \"llama3.2:latest\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Ollama Chat Model\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatOllama\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [900, 560]}], \"connections\": {\"Chat Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Basic LLM Chain\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Ollama Chat Model\": {\"ai_languageModel\": [[{\"node\": \"Basic LLM Chain\", \"type\": \"ai_languageModel\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's think about how to build this n8n workflow. The goal is to have a chat interaction that uses an LLM.\n\nFirst, I need to consider how the workflow will *start*. The prompt specifically mentions a \"Chat Trigger.\" That's my entry point. So, my very first node should be a `Chat Trigger` node. Looking at the JSON, it's `type: \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger\"` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it's designed to listen for incoming chat messages and kick off a workflow. It acts like an inbound webhook specifically for chat applications, providing the user's message as input to the rest of the flow. I don't see any special parameters configured on it, which is typical for a basic trigger \u2013 it just waits for a chat input.\n\nNext, after receiving a chat message, I need to process it with an LLM. The prompt states it should be \"connected to a Basic LLM Chain.\" This immediately tells me my next step. The `Basic LLM Chain` node is designed to handle the interaction with a language model, often taking an input, passing it to the model, and then allowing further processing of the model's output. So, I'd drag out a `Basic LLM Chain` node. Checking the JSON, it's `type: \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chainLlm\"` with `typeVersion: 1.3`. This makes sense.\n\nNow, how do I connect these two? The `Chat Trigger` provides the user's chat input. This input needs to go into the `Basic LLM Chain` so the chain knows what to ask the LLM. So, I'd draw a connection from the `main` output of the `Chat Trigger` to the `main` input of the `Basic LLM Chain`. This ensures the chat message flows directly into the chain for processing.\n\nThe `Basic LLM Chain` needs an actual language model to work with. The prompt specifies it should be \"powered by an Ollama Chat Model configured to use `llama3.2:latest` with a 'Local Ollama service' credential.\" This gives me clear instructions for the *source* of the AI power. I need an `Ollama Chat Model` node. Looking at the JSON, it's `type: \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatOllama\"` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is exactly the node type for integrating with an Ollama instance.\n\nNow, let's configure this `Ollama Chat Model` node. The prompt says `llama3.2:latest`. So, in the parameters for the Ollama node, I'd set the `model` field to `llama3.2:latest`. This tells the node precisely which specific model from my Ollama service to use. If I didn't specify this, it might default to something else, or fail if no default is configured, so being explicit here is important.\n\nAnd for the credential, the prompt states \"a 'Local Ollama service' credential.\" This means I'd select an existing credential that's set up to connect to my local Ollama instance. The JSON confirms this, showing a `credentials` block pointing to an `ollamaApi` credential, generically named \"Local Ollama service.\" This is how the node authenticates and knows *where* to find the Ollama service.\n\nFinally, I need to connect the `Ollama Chat Model` to the `Basic LLM Chain`. The `Basic LLM Chain` has a dedicated input for an AI language model. So, I'd connect the `ai_languageModel` output of the `Ollama Chat Model` node to the `ai_languageModel` input of the `Basic LLM Chain`. This is a very specific type of connection that tells the chain, \"Hey, use this specific Ollama model when you need to talk to an LLM.\" Without this connection, the chain wouldn't know which LLM to use.\n\nSo, to summarize the flow: a chat message comes into the `Chat Trigger`, passes to the `Basic LLM Chain` for orchestration, and that chain then uses the `Ollama Chat Model` (configured for `llama3.2:latest` and connected via the \"Local Ollama service\" credential) to actually generate a response. The `Ollama Chat Model` provides its LLM capabilities to the `Basic LLM Chain`. That seems like a complete and logical flow for this requirement." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with a single Airtable node that extracts the `application` and `table` IDs from an Airtable URL using regular expressions.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"application\": {\"__rl\": true, \"mode\": \"url\", \"value\": \"\", \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"}, \"table\": {\"__rl\": true, \"mode\": \"url\", \"value\": \"\", \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"}}, \"name\": \"Airtable\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.airtable\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [380, 180]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start conceptualizing this n8n workflow. The user's request is quite specific: extract application (Base) and table IDs from an Airtable URL, using regular expressions, all within a *single* Airtable node. This immediately tells me I'm going to need to leverage some of the more advanced configuration options within the Airtable node itself, rather than using separate nodes like \"Code\" or \"Set\" for the regex parsing.\n\nFirst off, since the requirement is to use an Airtable node and interact with Airtable data conceptually (even if just for extraction of IDs), the obvious choice for our single node will be the **Airtable node**. I'd search for it in the node palette and drag it onto the canvas. Looking at the JSON, its type is confirmed as `n8n-nodes-base.airtable` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is good, a standard, stable version of the node.\n\nNow, how do we get this single node to perform the extraction? Typically, an Airtable node is used to perform operations like 'Get Many', 'Create', 'Update' records. For those operations, you'd provide the Base ID (application) and Table ID\/Name directly. But here, we need to *derive* those from a URL. This points me to a feature in n8n where node parameters can be configured to dynamically extract information from a source, often using regular expressions.\n\nLet's look at the `parameters` section of the Airtable node from the JSON. We see `application` and `table` are the two key fields we need to configure.\n\nFor the `application` field (which corresponds to the Airtable Base ID), the JSON shows this configuration:\n```json\n\"application\": {\n \"__rl\": true,\n \"mode\": \"url\",\n \"value\": \"\",\n \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"\n}\n```\nThis is interesting. The `mode: \"url\"` indicates that the node expects a URL to be provided as an input source, against which the regex will be applied. The `value: \"\"` being empty means we're not hardcoding a specific URL here in the workflow; rather, a user would provide it when executing the workflow, or it would come from a previous node (though in this single-node setup, it's more likely a direct input to the node's UI).\n\nThe crucial part is the `__regex` property: `\"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`.\n* `https:\/\/airtable.com\/`: This part simply matches the literal beginning of a typical Airtable URL, ensuring we're looking at the right kind of link.\n* `([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})`: This is the *capturing group*. The parentheses `()` are what make it a capturing group.\n * `[a-zA-Z0-9]`: This matches any single alphanumeric character (uppercase letters, lowercase letters, or digits).\n * `{2,}`: This quantifier means the preceding character set must appear two or more times. Airtable Base IDs (like `app...`) are typically long strings of alphanumeric characters, so this pattern is robust enough to capture them.\nSo, this regex is designed to literally \"grab\" whatever sequence of 2 or more alphanumeric characters immediately follows `https:\/\/airtable.com\/` and assign it as the `application` ID. The `__rl: true` property likely signifies some kind of \"resolve later\" or \"regex lookup\" mechanism where the value for the `application` field is determined at runtime by this regex.\n\nNext, let's move to the `table` field. This is for the Table ID or Name. The JSON has:\n```json\n\"table\": {\n \"__rl\": true,\n \"mode\": \"url\",\n \"value\": \"\",\n \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"\n}\n```\nAgain, `mode: \"url\"` and `value: \"\"` signify that this regex will also operate on the same input URL.\n\nThe `__regex` for the table ID is `\"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`.\n* `https:\/\/airtable.com\/`: Same as before, matching the URL's start.\n* `[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}`: This part matches the Base ID that we extracted for the `application` field. Crucially, it's *not* in a capturing group here, as we don't need to capture the Base ID *again* for the table field; we just need to match past it to get to the table ID.\n* `\/`: This matches the literal forward slash that typically separates the Base ID from the Table ID in an Airtable URL.\n* `([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})`: This is the *capturing group* for the Table ID. Similar to the Base ID, it looks for 2 or more alphanumeric characters. Airtable Table IDs (like `tbl...`) also follow this alphanumeric pattern.\nSo, this regex will specifically capture the sequence of alphanumeric characters that appears *after* the Base ID and the separating slash, assigning it to the `table` field.\n\nFinally, the `connections` section is empty, which makes sense as this is designed as a standalone node based on the prompt. This setup achieves the user's goal of extracting the IDs using regex within a single Airtable node by cleverly configuring its input parameters to perform the regex parsing on an input URL. The node's primary function in this workflow isn't necessarily to *perform* an Airtable operation (as no `operation` or `resource` is specified in the JSON), but rather to use its parameter binding capabilities for the specified extraction task." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Test workflow 1' that manually triggers a Code node, which then adds a 'myNewField' property with a value of 1 to the JSON of every input item.

This Code node's job is to modify every input item by adding a specific property, 'myNewField', with a value of 1 to its JSON. Lastly, the workflow needs to have two specific tags: 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'.\n\nThe very first thing I need to think about is the name of the workflow. The prompt clearly states it should be \"Test workflow 1\". So, in the overall workflow definition, I'll make sure the `name` field is set to `Test workflow 1`.\n\nNext, I need to consider how this workflow will start. The prompt says it \"manually triggers\". This immediately tells me I'm going to need a trigger node that a user can click to initiate the workflow. Looking at the n8n nodes, the `Manual Trigger` node is perfect for this.\n\nSo, I'd add the first node:\n* Its `type` would be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`.\n* Looking at the JSON, the `typeVersion` for this node is `1`. This is good; version 1 is standard for this kind of simple trigger.\n* The `name` given in the JSON is \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is a descriptive default name for a manual trigger.\n* As it's just a trigger, its `parameters` object would be empty, as there's nothing specific to configure for a basic manual execution. It just provides a starting point.\n\nNow that we have a way to start the workflow, what's the very next step? The prompt says it \"then adds a 'myNewField' property... to the JSON of every input item\". This sounds like a data transformation task, and it's quite specific about adding a property to *every* input item's JSON. A `Code` node is the most flexible and powerful way to achieve this kind of arbitrary data manipulation in n8n. It allows me to write custom JavaScript to transform the data as needed.\n\nSo, the second node I'd add would be a `Code` node:\n* Its `type` would be `n8n-nodes-base.code`.\n* The `typeVersion` from the JSON is `1`. Again, version 1 is typical for the Code node.\n* The `name` given in the JSON is simply \"Code\", which is concise and clear for its function.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The `Code` node needs to process the input that comes *from* the `Manual Trigger`. So, I'd connect the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the `main` input of the \"Code\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, it passes its (empty, in this case, but still an item) data to the Code node for processing.\n\nThe most critical part of the `Code` node is its `jsCode` parameter. This is where the actual logic resides. The requirement is to \"add a 'myNewField' property with a value of 1 to the JSON of every input item.\"\nInside the `jsCode` property, I would write JavaScript that iterates over all the incoming items. n8n provides a convenient way to access all input items using `$input.all()`.\nSo, the code would look something like this:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nThis loop ensures that for each item received by the Code node, it accesses its `json` property and adds `myNewField` with a value of `1`. Crucially, after modifying the items, the code needs to return them so they can be passed on to any subsequent nodes in the workflow. Returning `$input.all()` after modification is the standard pattern for a Code node that transforms data in place.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies including tags: \"Include the tags 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'.\" This is not a node-specific configuration but a workflow-level metadata. I'd add a `tags` array to the root of the workflow JSON, with objects representing each tag. Each tag object would contain a `name` property for the tag itself. The `id`, `createdAt`, and `updatedAt` properties are typically added by n8n when the tags are created or assigned, so while I'd ensure the names are present, the other fields would be populated automatically upon saving the workflow.\n\nSo, the workflow structure feels complete: a manual trigger to start, a code node to perform the data transformation, and the appropriate tags assigned at the workflow level for organization. The Code node doesn't explicitly connect to anything else downstream in this specific requirement, so its output connection can be an empty array as shown in the JSON, meaning it's the last node for now.\n\nThat covers all aspects of the user's request and aligns with the provided JSON." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that starts with a Manual Trigger.

The prompt specifically asks for a \"Manual Trigger.\"\n\n**Node 1: Manual Trigger**\n* **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version**: `1`\n* **Reasoning**: This node is the perfect fit for initiating a workflow that's meant to be run on demand, perhaps for testing or for a user to kick off manually. It doesn't require any specific input; it simply starts the execution flow when activated. Looking at the JSON, its name is set to \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\", which is a very descriptive default name for a manual trigger and perfectly aligns with its purpose. No other parameters are needed for its basic function here.\n\nNext, the prompt instructs me to connect this manual trigger to a Gmail node. This will be the first action after the workflow is manually started.\n\n**Node 2: Gmail**\n* **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.gmail`\n* **Type Version**: `2.1`\n* **Reasoning**: The prompt explicitly calls for a \"Gmail node.\" The `n8n-nodes-base.gmail` node is the standard way to interact with Gmail, whether it's sending emails, retrieving them, or performing other Gmail-related operations. The prompt also specifies that this node should be named \"Gmail\" and perform a \"get\" operation. So, I would configure its name field to \"Gmail\" to match the requirement. For the operation, I'd select \"get\" from the available options. This 'get' operation is used to retrieve emails from a Gmail account. Typically, you'd configure credentials here, perhaps specifying which mailbox to get emails from (like 'INBOX'), maybe filters for unread messages, or a maximum number of results. For this specific request, the core requirement is just the \"get\" operation, indicating we want to pull data from Gmail.\n* **Connection**: This node needs to receive data from the \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\" (the Manual Trigger). So, I'd draw a connection from the 'main' output of the Manual Trigger node to the 'main' input of this newly added \"Gmail\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, it passes its (empty, in this case) execution signal to the Gmail node, prompting it to run its 'get' operation.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that the first Gmail node should connect to \"another unnamed Gmail node also set to 'get' data.\" This implies a sequential flow where the output of the first Gmail operation might inform or simply trigger the second.\n\n**Node 3: Unnamed Gmail Node (referred to as Gmail1 in connections)**\n* **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.gmail`\n* **Type Version**: `2.1`\n* **Reasoning**: Again, the requirement is for another \"Gmail node\" with a \"get\" operation. This will also be an `n8n-nodes-base.gmail` type. The key difference here is that the prompt specifies it should be \"unnamed.\" So, I would leave the node's `name` parameter empty, as seen in the JSON (`\"name\": \"\"`). Like the previous one, its operation should be set to \"get.\" This means it will also retrieve emails from Gmail. It's common in workflows to have multiple Gmail steps, perhaps to get different types of emails, or to filter\/process emails in stages. The specific configuration parameters like credentials, email filters, or quantities would be set here, similar to the first Gmail node, but again, the core is the 'get' operation.\n* **Connection**: This node needs to receive data from the *first* Gmail node (the one named \"Gmail\"). So, I'd connect the 'main' output of the \"Gmail\" node to the 'main' input of this unnamed second Gmail node. The JSON's connection section correctly references this second node as \"Gmail1\", which is n8n's typical auto-generated name for a second instance of a node type when the user hasn't explicitly named it. This ensures that once the first Gmail node finishes retrieving its data, it triggers the second Gmail node to perform its own 'get' operation.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow as per the requirements specified. It's a straightforward sequence: trigger, get emails, then get more emails." } { "prompt": "Create an N8N workflow with two \"Schedule Trigger\" nodes named \"Trigger A\" and \"Trigger B\".

The user's prompt is pretty clear: two schedule triggers, both feeding into a single \"Set\" node. The \"Set\" node also needs a specific expression. This sounds like a straightforward, yet illustrative, workflow.\n\nI'd start by thinking about the entry points for the workflow. The prompt specifically asks for two \"Schedule Trigger\" nodes. So, those are definitely the first things I'd put down on the canvas.\n\nFirst, I'll add the \"Trigger A\" node.\n* Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`, which is exactly what we need for a time-based or interval-based workflow initiation.\n* Looking at the JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1.2`. This is a common and stable version for the schedule trigger, so no concerns there; it provides the necessary functionality.\n* I'd name it \"Trigger A\" as specified in the prompt.\n* For its configuration, the JSON shows `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This means it's set up to trigger on an interval. While the specific interval (e.g., every hour, daily) isn't detailed here beyond an empty object, that's perfectly fine for setting up the node itself; the user could specify the exact timing later if they wanted to, say, trigger it every 5 minutes. The important part is that it's correctly identified as a schedule trigger.\n\nNext up, I need the second trigger, \"Trigger B\".\n* Just like the first one, it will also be an `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`. This ensures we have two distinct, independently configurable entry points for our workflow, as required.\n* Its `typeVersion` is also `1.2`, which is consistent and expected.\n* I'll give it the name \"Trigger B\", adhering to the prompt.\n* Its configuration is identical to \"Trigger A\" in the JSON: `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. Again, the specific interval can be refined later, but the node itself is correctly configured as a scheduled trigger.\n\nNow that the triggers are in place, I need to think about where their output goes. The prompt states that both triggers should connect to a \"Set\" node. A \"Set\" node is ideal for this because it allows us to define or modify data fields on the items passing through it. This is precisely what's needed to add the \"prevNode\" field.\n\nSo, I'll add the \"Set\" node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`. This is the perfect choice for manipulating data like adding new fields or updating existing ones.\n* The `typeVersion` is `3.4`. This indicates a recent and capable version of the Set node, which will definitely handle the expression we need to use.\n* I'll name it \"Edit Fields\" as per the user's instructions.\n* Now, for the crucial part: its configuration. The prompt specifically asks for a field named \"prevNode\" with a dynamic value.\n * Looking at the JSON, I see `{\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6a8c3d85-26f8-4f28-ace9-55a196c3d37\", \"name\": \"prevNode\", \"value\": \"={{ $prevNode.name }}\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}`.\n * This is exactly what's needed. I'd go into the \"Set\" node's parameters, add a new field, and name it \"prevNode\".\n * For its value, I'd input the expression `={{ $prevNode.name }}`. This is a very powerful feature in n8n. It dynamically references the name of the node that *preceded* the current node in the workflow execution path. So, if \"Trigger A\" fires, `prevNode` will be \"Trigger A\". If \"Trigger B\" fires, `prevNode` will be \"Trigger B\". This allows the workflow to know which entry point initiated the current run, which can be very useful for logging or conditional logic later on.\n * The type is set to \"string,\" which is correct, as node names are text strings.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these nodes. The prompt explicitly says to connect *both* triggers to the \"Set\" node.\n* First, I'd draw a connection from \"Trigger A\" to \"Edit Fields\". This is a `main` connection, which is the standard way to pass data items from one node to the next in the primary workflow path. The JSON confirms `main` and `index: 0` for the input, meaning it connects to the first input of the \"Set\" node.\n* Then, I'd draw a second connection from \"Trigger B\" to \"Edit Fields\". This also needs to be a `main` connection, ensuring that \"Trigger B\" can also pass its data (or simply trigger execution) to the \"Set\" node. The \"Set\" node is designed to handle multiple incoming connections, processing items from whichever input receives data. So, this connection also goes to `main` and `index: 0` as seen in the JSON.\n\nThis setup perfectly matches the requirements: two independent trigger points feeding into a central node that identifies which trigger started the flow, ready for further processing down the line." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts manually, then uses a Yourls node to shorten a specific Medium article URL (with a given title), and subsequently uses another Yourls node to fetch statistics for the generated short URL.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [370, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/medium.com\/n8n-io\/sending-sms-the-low-code-way-with-airtable-twilio-programmable-sms-and-n8n-90dbde74223e?source=---------4-----------------------\", \"additionalFields\": {\"title\": \"Sending SMS the Low-Code Way with Airtable, Twilio Programmable SMS, and n8n\"}}, \"name\": \"Yourls\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.yourls\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [570, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"shortUrl\": \"={{$node[\\\"Yourls\\\"].json[\\\"shorturl\\\"]}}\", \"operation\": \"stats\"}, \"name\": \"Yourls1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.yourls\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [770, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Yourls\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Yourls1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Yourls\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start thinking about how to build this workflow from scratch, imagining I'm piecing it together based on the requirements and then looking at the provided JSON as my guide.\n\nFirst, I need a way for this workflow to kick off. The prompt clearly states \"starts manually.\" So, my immediate thought is, \"How do I make a workflow start on demand?\" The `manualTrigger` node is perfect for this. It's designed specifically for cases where a user clicks a button to initiate the workflow.\n\nSo, I'd add an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. Its typeVersion is `1`. This node doesn't need much configuration itself; it just sits there waiting for that manual push. Its job is simply to provide a starting signal, kicking off the subsequent steps. I'd place it at the beginning of my workflow visualization.\n\nNext, the prompt asks to \"use a Yourls node to shorten a specific Medium article URL (with a given title).\" This tells me I'll definitely need a Yourls node. I'll connect it directly to my `manualTrigger` node, as it's the first actual operation to perform after the workflow starts.\n\nSo, I'd bring in an `n8n-nodes-base.yourls` node. Its typeVersion is `1`. This node is designed to interact with a Yourls instance, which is a self-hosted URL shortener. For its operation, shortening a URL is typically the default behavior, and that's exactly what I need here.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Yourls node? It needs the URL to shorten, and it also needs a title for that URL.\nLooking at the parameters, I'd configure the `url` field with the specific Medium article link provided. Then, I see `additionalFields`, and within that, there's a `title` field. This is where I'd input the given title for the article. This helps make the shortened URL more descriptive within the Yourls system. Of course, to make any connection to a Yourls instance, this node also requires credentials. I wouldn't put any actual API keys here, but I'd know that a `yourlsApi` credential would need to be set up to allow n8n to communicate with my Yourls server.\n\nAfter shortening the URL, the prompt says \"subsequently uses another Yourls node to fetch statistics for the generated short URL.\" This means I'll need *another* Yourls node, and it needs to run *after* the first one has successfully shortened the URL and provided the result.\n\nSo, I'd add a second `n8n-nodes-base.yourls` node, also with typeVersion `1`. I'll name it something like \"Yourls1\" to distinguish it. I'd connect the output of my first \"Yourls\" node to the input of this new \"Yourls1\" node. This connection is vital because the second Yourls node needs information produced by the first one.\n\nNow, for the configuration of this second Yourls node:\nIts operation clearly needs to be \"stats\" or \"Get Statistics\" because the goal is to fetch statistics.\nThe most important part here is telling it *which* short URL to get statistics for. I can't hardcode it because the short URL is generated dynamically by the *previous* Yourls node. This is where expressions come in handy. I'd use an expression to reference the output of the previous node. Specifically, I'd access the `shorturl` property from the JSON output of the node named \"Yourls\". So, the `shortUrl` parameter would be set to something like `={{$node[\"Yourls\"].json[\"shorturl\"]}}`. This ensures that whatever short URL was just created is automatically passed to this node for statistics.\n\nJust like the first Yourls node, this one also requires the `yourlsApi` credentials to authenticate and communicate with the Yourls service. It's likely the same credential set that was used for the first Yourls node.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. The `manualTrigger` starts it, the first `Yourls` node shortens the URL and outputs the shortened link, and the second `Yourls` node takes that link and fetches its statistics. The connections ensure the data flows correctly from one step to the next." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow triggered by a webhook at `onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/FillCompanyAndleadsDataInCRM`.

The core request is to trigger something with a webhook, grab content from a Google Doc, and then send that content back as the webhook's response.\n\nFirst things first, if a workflow needs to be triggered by an external HTTP request, I immediately think of the `Webhook` node. It's the standard entry point for such scenarios in n8n. So, that's what I'd put down as my very first node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` (typeVersion 2)\n* **Reasoning:** This node is specifically designed to listen for incoming HTTP requests and start the workflow execution. It's the perfect way to fulfill the \"triggered by a webhook\" requirement.\n* **Configuration Thoughts:**\n * I'd need to set the `path` parameter. The user prompt clearly specifies \"onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/FillCompanyAndleadsDataInCRM\", so I'd configure the node to listen on that exact path. This makes sure the webhook is accessible at the correct URL.\n * The prompt also implies that the workflow should return content *after* fetching the Google Doc. This means the initial webhook node shouldn't immediately send a response. So, I'd set its `responseMode` to \"responseNode\". This tells n8n that a subsequent node in the workflow will handle sending the actual HTTP response back to the caller. This setup is crucial for allowing us to perform actions like fetching the Google Doc *before* responding.\n* **Connections:** As the starting node, it won't have any incoming connections from other n8n nodes. Its primary output will then pass the incoming webhook data (though in this case, we won't be using much of it, just triggering) to the next step.\n\nNow that we have the trigger set up, the next logical step is to address the requirement to \"fetch the content of the Google Doc.\" For interacting with Google Docs, n8n provides a dedicated `Google Docs` node, which is exactly what we need.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` (typeVersion 2)\n* **Reasoning:** This node provides specific functionalities for Google Docs, like reading, writing, or updating documents. Since the goal is to \"fetch the content,\" this is the most direct and appropriate node to use.\n* **Configuration Thoughts:**\n * For the `operation`, I'd select \"get\" because we want to retrieve the content of an existing document.\n * The node would then require a `documentURL`. I would configure this field with the specific Google Doc URL provided in the prompt. This tells the node exactly which document to retrieve.\n * Of course, to access Google Docs, this node would also need proper `credentials`. I would ensure that a Google Docs OAuth2 API credential is linked here, allowing n8n to authenticate and access the user's Google Drive and documents.\n* **Connections:** This node needs to execute *after* the webhook is triggered. So, I would connect the \"main\" output of the `Webhook` node to the \"main\" input of this `Google Docs` node. This ensures that when the webhook fires, the workflow proceeds to fetch the document. The output of this `Google Docs` node will contain the document's content, which we'll need for the next step.\n\nFinally, we need to \"return it as the webhook's response.\" Since we set the initial `Webhook` node to delegate the response, we need a node specifically for sending that final response. The `Respond to Webhook` node is purpose-built for this.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` (typeVersion 1.1)\n* **Reasoning:** This node is used when an initial `Webhook` node's `responseMode` is set to \"responseNode.\" It allows you to explicitly control the HTTP response (status code, body, headers) that gets sent back to the caller. It's the final piece of the puzzle to complete the request-response cycle.\n* **Configuration Thoughts:**\n * For `respondWith`, the prompt asks to return the content, implying a text-based response. So, I'd choose \"text.\"\n * The critical part here is the `responseBody`. The `Google Docs` node, when set to \"get\" operation, typically outputs the document content in a field like `content`. So, I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` to dynamically pull the content from the previous `Google Docs` node's output and use it as the body of the HTTP response. This directly fulfills the requirement of returning the Google Doc's content.\n* **Connections:** This node needs to receive the content from the `Google Docs` node. Therefore, I would connect the \"main\" output of the `Google Docs` node to the \"main\" input of this `Respond to Webhook` node. This ensures that the fetched document content is passed along to be returned. After this node executes, the HTTP response is sent, and the workflow execution for that specific webhook call effectively concludes." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that manually triggers to create a Taiga issue named 'n8n-docs' in project ID 385605, subsequently updating its description to 'This ticket is for the documentation for the Taiga node', and then retrieving the full details of that same issue.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [430, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"subject\": \"n8n-docs\", \"projectId\": 385605, \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Taiga\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.taiga\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [630, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"issueId\": \"={{$node[\\\"Taiga\\\"].json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\", \"operation\": \"update\", \"projectId\": \"={{$node[\\\"Taiga\\\"].json[\\\"project\\\"]}}\", \"updateFields\": {\"description\": \"This ticket is for the documentation for the Taiga node\"}}, \"name\": \"Taiga1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.taiga\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [830, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"issueId\": \"={{$node[\\\"Taiga\\\"].json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\", \"operation\": \"get\"}, \"name\": \"Taiga2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.taiga\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1030, 260]}], \"connections\": {\"Taiga\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Taiga1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Taiga1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Taiga2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Taiga\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow based on the user's request. The goal is pretty clear: manual trigger, create an issue, update it, then get its details.\n\nFirst things first, the user wants this workflow to \"manually trigger.\" That immediately tells me what my starting point needs to be. I'll search for a trigger node, and the \"Manual Trigger\" node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`, is the perfect fit. It's simple, it just sits there and waits for someone to click the 'execute' button. No special configurations are needed for this one, it just serves its purpose as the entry point for the workflow execution. It's ideal for ad-hoc tasks or testing.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"create a Taiga issue named 'n8n-docs' in project ID 385605\". This is our first action step involving an external service, Taiga. So, I'll need to add a Taiga node. Looking at the available nodes, `n8n-nodes-base.taiga` is exactly what we need. For its `typeVersion: 1`, this node should have the capabilities we require. I'll connect it directly to my \"On clicking 'execute'\" node, as it's the first operation after the trigger.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Taiga node to create an issue? I'll set its operation to 'create'. Then, I need to input the details for the new issue. The prompt specifies \"named 'n8n-docs'\", so that goes into the 'subject' parameter. It also gives us \"project ID 385605\", which will be set in the 'projectId' parameter. It's crucial to link this node to the correct Taiga API credentials, which would be configured in the `taigaCloudApi` field, allowing n8n to authenticate with Taiga. At this point, this node is set up to create the issue.\n\nAfter creating the issue, the next step is \"subsequently updating its description to 'This ticket is for the documentation for the Taiga node'\". This sounds like another Taiga operation. I'll add another Taiga node, again `n8n-nodes-base.taiga`, `typeVersion: 1`. This node needs to know *which* issue to update. The key here is to pass the ID of the issue we just created in the previous Taiga node. So, I'll connect the output of my first Taiga node (the one that created the issue) to the input of this new Taiga node.\n\nFor the configuration of this second Taiga node, the operation will definitely be 'update'. To identify the issue, I'll use an expression in the 'issueId' parameter. Since the previous Taiga node would output the details of the created issue, including its ID, I can reference it like `={{$node[\"Taiga\"].json[\"id\"]}}`. This ensures we're updating the *exact* issue we just created. I also need to make sure the `projectId` matches the one where the issue was created, which I can also retrieve dynamically from the previous node: `={{$node[\"Taiga\"].json[\"project\"]}}`. Finally, the prompt states \"updating its description to 'This ticket is for the documentation for the Taiga node'\". So, under 'updateFields', I'll set the 'description' field to that specific string. Again, proper Taiga credentials would be linked.\n\nThe final part of the request is \"and then retrieving the full details of that same issue.\" This is yet another Taiga operation, so I'll add a third Taiga node, `n8n-nodes-base.taiga`, `typeVersion: 1`. This node will be connected to the output of the 'update' Taiga node, continuing the flow.\n\nFor this third Taiga node, the operation will be 'get'. Similar to the update step, I need to tell it which issue to retrieve. So, for the 'issueId' parameter, I'll use the same expression as before: `={{$node[\"Taiga\"].json[\"id\"]}}`. This ensures we're getting the details of the *original* issue created, after it's been updated. There are no other specific fields to set here, as 'get' typically retrieves all available information for that ID. And, of course, the Taiga credentials would be configured in the same way as the previous Taiga nodes.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow chain. We start with a manual trigger, create an issue, update that exact issue, and then retrieve its details, making sure to pass the necessary issue ID between the Taiga nodes to maintain context." } { "prompt": "Build an n8n workflow that begins with a manual trigger, followed by two consecutive Gmail nodes, both configured to get emails.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\"}, \"name\": \"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 2.1, \"position\": [900, 460]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 460]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\"}, \"name\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 2.1, \"position\": [680, 460]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Gmail\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning and building this n8n workflow.

This is a foundational node, excellent for developing and testing workflows, or for any workflow that needs to be run on demand. Looking at the JSON, it's identified as `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node doesn't have much in the way of parameters; its main purpose is to initiate the workflow when you click \"Execute Workflow\" or \"Test workflow\" in the n8n UI. The JSON specifies its name as \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", which is a very clear and helpful name, indicating its function.\n\nNext, the prompt says this trigger should be \"followed by two consecutive Gmail nodes.\" So, immediately after our manual trigger, we'll place the first **Gmail** node. This is an integration node, part of the `n8n-nodes-base.gmail` package, and the JSON confirms `typeVersion: 2.1`. This node is essential for interacting with the Gmail API.\n\nNow, for configuring this first Gmail node, the prompt is clear: both Gmail nodes need to be \"configured to get emails.\" So, within the parameters for this node, I'll make sure the `operation` field is set to `get`. This particular operation is designed to retrieve email messages from a specified Gmail account. To actually perform this action, the node would require a credential to be linked, which securely stores the necessary authentication details (like OAuth tokens) to connect to Gmail. However, sensitive information like actual credentials are not, and should not be, part of the workflow JSON itself, so I'll just note that a credential would be configured here. The node's name is \"Gmail\" according to the JSON, which is a sensible default.\n\nWith the first Gmail node configured, I need to establish the flow from the trigger to it. The manual trigger will initiate the process, and then control needs to pass to this first Gmail node. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node to the `main` input of the \"Gmail\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, the workflow executes the first Gmail node next.\n\nMoving on, the prompt requires \"two consecutive Gmail nodes,\" so we need a second one immediately after the first. I'll add another **Gmail** node to the canvas. Like the previous one, this is also a `n8n-nodes-base.gmail` node with `typeVersion: 2.1`. Consistency in node versions is generally a good practice unless there's a specific reason to use different ones.\n\nJust like the first one, this second Gmail node also needs to be configured to \"get emails.\" So, again, I'll set its `operation` parameter to `get`. It would also require a credential to connect to a Gmail account, potentially the same one as the first node, or a different one depending on the specific use case. The JSON for this second node shows an empty string for its name, meaning n8n would likely auto-assign it a name like \"Gmail1\" or \"Gmail2\" to differentiate it from the first \"Gmail\" node. The connections section confirms it's referred to as \"Gmail1\".\n\nFinally, to complete the \"consecutive\" requirement, I need to connect the first Gmail node to this second one. After the first Gmail node successfully retrieves its emails, we want the workflow to automatically proceed to execute the second Gmail node. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the first \"Gmail\" node to the `main` input of the second \"Gmail1\" node. This sequential connection ensures that the operations happen in the desired order, making the second Gmail node execute right after the first one completes." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'Notify Telegram' that is triggered manually and sends '\u0422\u0435\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0435 \u0441\u043e\u043e\u0431\u0449\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0435 \u043e\u0442 n8n ' to Telegram chat ID '489359810'.

The user wants an inactive workflow named 'Notify Telegram', triggered manually, to send a specific message to a Telegram chat ID. It's also part of a specific repository structure.\n\nFirst, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly states it should be \"triggered manually\". So, my immediate thought for the first node is a manual trigger. Looking at the provided JSON, I can see the first node defined is indeed of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"`, with `typeVersion: 1`. This confirms my initial thought. This `manualTrigger` node is perfect for this requirement because it allows the user to initiate the workflow execution simply by clicking a button in the n8n interface, which is exactly what \"triggered manually\" implies. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters, as its purpose is just to kick off the workflow when someone tells it to. I'll name it something descriptive like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" as suggested by the JSON; that makes it clear what its purpose is.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's the next step? The goal is to \"send '\u0422\u0435\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0435 \u0441\u043e\u043e\u0431\u0449\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0435 \u043e\u0442 n8n ' to Telegram chat ID '489359810'\". This clearly indicates we need a node that can interact with the Telegram API. I'll look at the connections from my `manualTrigger` node. The JSON shows that `When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019` connects to a node named \"Telegram\". Checking the nodes list, there's one with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.telegram\"` and `typeVersion: 1.2`. This is exactly what we need! The Telegram node is the go-to choice for sending messages, files, or interacting with Telegram in various ways.\n\nNow I need to configure this Telegram node to send the specific message to the correct chat. I'll check its `parameters`.\nThe `parameters` object for the Telegram node shows `chatId: \"489359810\"`. This matches the target chat ID provided in the user prompt, so that's correctly set.\nNext, there's `text: \"\\u0422\\u0435\\u0441\\u0442\\u043e\\u0432\\u043e\\u0435 \\u0441\\u043e\\u043e\\u0431\\u0449\\u0435\\u043d\\u0438\\u0435 \\u043e\\u0442 n8n \"`. This is the exact message required, so that's perfect. The `additionalFields` are empty, meaning no extra options like parse mode or message disable notifications are needed, which aligns with a simple text message.\n\nTo send messages via Telegram, the node will naturally need credentials to authenticate with the Telegram API. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"telegramApi\": {\"id\": \"AdKeUtbfCdhVoJMN\", \"name\": \"Telegram account\"}}`. This tells me that a Telegram API credential has been set up and linked to this node. When building this, I would ensure a valid Telegram bot token is provided in the actual credential setup, allowing the node to communicate securely with Telegram.\n\nFinally, let's consider the connections between these two nodes. The `manualTrigger` initiates the workflow, and its output should flow directly into the Telegram node to trigger the message sending. The `connections` object in the JSON confirms this: `{\"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This indicates a simple 'main' connection from the `manualTrigger` to the `Telegram` node. This means that when the manual trigger is activated, it will pass an empty or default item to the Telegram node, which will then proceed to send the configured message. There's no complex data transformation needed between these two nodes, as the Telegram node's message content is static.\n\nJust a few final checks on the overall workflow properties. The prompt specified the workflow should be \"inactive\", and the JSON confirms this with `\"active\": false`. The name is \"Notify Telegram\" as requested. And the repository information (`repo_owner`, `repo_name`, `repo_path`) is also correctly embedded in the workflow JSON, which is important for how it's managed within the `n8n_template` repository structure. So, everything seems to align perfectly with the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger. It should then create a Sentry.io release (version 0.0.1) using a node named 'Sentry.io', and finally retrieve all Sentry releases using a node named 'Sentry.io1'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [210, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"\", \"version\": \"0.0.1\", \"projects\": [\"\"], \"resource\": \"release\", \"operation\": \"create\", \"additionalFields\": {}, \"organizationSlug\": \"\"}, \"name\": \"Sentry.io\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.sentryIo\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [410, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"release\", \"operation\": \"getAll\", \"returnAll\": true, \"additionalFields\": {}, \"organizationSlug\": \"\"}, \"name\": \"Sentry.io1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.sentryIo\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [610, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Sentry.io\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Sentry.io1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Sentry.io\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow designed. The user wants a workflow that kicks off manually, creates a Sentry.io release, and then fetches all Sentry releases. Sounds like a pretty standard sequence of operations.\n\nFirst things first, how do we start this workflow? The prompt specifically says it \"starts with a manual trigger.\" That's easy enough. I'll reach for the `Manual Trigger` node. It's the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` type, and looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion 1`. This node is perfect because it allows the user to initiate the workflow execution simply by clicking a button in the n8n UI. It doesn't need any complex configuration parameters; it just, well, triggers. I'll name it something clear, like \"On clicking 'execute',\" as seen in the plan. Its main purpose is to send a single item of data down the workflow path to kick things off.\n\nNext, the prompt requires creating a Sentry.io release. For that, I'll definitely need a Sentry.io node. The prompt even tells me to name it 'Sentry.io'. This will be an `n8n-nodes-base.sentryIo` type node, `typeVersion 1`. I'll connect the `Manual Trigger` node's main output to this `Sentry.io` node's main input. This ensures that once the workflow starts, it immediately proceeds to the Sentry operation.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Sentry.io node to create a release?\nI need to tell it what `resource` it's dealing with, and in this case, it's a \"release.\"\nThen, I need to specify the `operation`, which is \"create\" since we're making a new one.\nThe prompt is very specific about the version: \"version 0.0.1\". So, I'll set the `version` parameter to \"0.0.1\".\nLooking at the JSON, there are parameters for `projects` and `organizationSlug`. It shows them as empty strings. In a real-world scenario, you'd typically specify the exact project slug (or slugs if there are multiple) where this release should be associated, and the organization slug that owns the project. These details are crucial for Sentry to know where to create the release. It also has a `url` parameter, which is empty here; often, the Sentry instance URL is handled through the credentials setup, but if it were a custom Sentry instance, you might explicitly set it here.\nFor `credentials`, it points to `sentryIoApi: \"sentry\"`. This means I'd need to have a Sentry API credential configured in n8n, which would hold the actual API key and potentially the base URL for the Sentry instance. This keeps sensitive information out of the workflow definition itself.\n\nFinally, the user wants to \"retrieve all Sentry releases.\" This means I'll need another Sentry.io node. The prompt asks to name it 'Sentry.io1'. So, I'll add another `n8n-nodes-base.sentryIo` node, also `typeVersion 1`. This node should logically come after the one that creates the release, so I'll connect the `Sentry.io` node's main output to the input of this new `Sentry.io1` node. This way, the workflow first creates the release, and *then* attempts to fetch all releases, including the one it just created (assuming it was successful).\n\nFor configuring this second Sentry.io node, 'Sentry.io1':\nAgain, the `resource` will be \"release\" because we're still dealing with releases.\nThe `operation` this time needs to be \"getAll\" to retrieve all of them, as requested.\nThe `returnAll` parameter is set to `true` in the JSON, which is exactly what we want for \"retrieve all\" \u2013 it tells the node to paginate through all available results from Sentry and return them all, rather than just the first page.\nSimilar to the previous node, it has an empty `organizationSlug` parameter. Again, in a live setup, you'd fill this in with the actual Sentry organization slug to ensure the query is scoped correctly.\nAnd just like the first Sentry node, it will use the same `sentryIoApi: \"sentry\"` credential to authenticate with the Sentry platform.\n\nThat completes the flow. A manual start, a creation action, and then a retrieval action. Seems pretty straightforward and meets all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that manually triggers a Mocean node, leaving the 'to', 'from', and 'message' parameters blank.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [590, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"to\": \"\", \"from\": \"\", \"message\": \"\"}, \"name\": \"Mocean\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.mocean\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [790, 260]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Mocean\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow. The request is quite specific: \"Generate an n8n workflow that manually triggers a Mocean node, leaving the 'to', 'from', and 'message' parameters blank.\"\n\nMy first thought is always, how does this workflow *start*? The prompt explicitly says \"manually triggers.\" This immediately tells me I need a trigger node that I can initiate directly from the n8n interface. The most straightforward way to do this is with the `Manual Trigger` node. It's designed exactly for this purpose\u2014you click a button, and the workflow runs.\n\nSo, I'll start by adding the `Manual Trigger` node.\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version**: Looking at the JSON, it's `1`, which is a common and stable version for this node. I don't anticipate any issues with this version; its core functionality is quite basic and consistent.\n* **Purpose**: This node acts as the entry point for the workflow. When the user clicks \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n UI, this node fires, initiating the subsequent steps.\n* **Configuration**: Based on the JSON, its `parameters` object is empty `{}`. This makes perfect sense for a manual trigger; it doesn't need any specific input parameters itself to function. Its job is simply to kick things off. I'll give it the name \"On clicking 'execute'\" as specified in the provided JSON, and I'll typically place it on the far left of the canvas as it's the beginning of the flow.\n\nNext, the prompt states that this manual trigger should lead to \"a Mocean node.\" This is the core action we need to perform. So, my second node will be the `Mocean` node itself.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.mocean`\n* **Type Version**: Again, the JSON specifies `1`. This indicates we're using a particular version of the Mocean integration node. I'll proceed with this version.\n* **Purpose**: This node is responsible for interacting with the Mocean API. In most cases, this would be for sending SMS messages or similar communication tasks.\n* **Connection**: This node clearly needs to run *after* the manual trigger. So, I'll draw a connection from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's primary output to this Mocean node's primary input. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, it causes the Mocean node to execute. The connection should be a standard `main` connection, which is what n8n typically uses for sequential processing.\n* **Configuration - Parameters**: Now, this is a crucial part of the request: \"leaving the 'to', 'from', and 'message' parameters blank.\" The JSON confirms this perfectly: `{\"to\": \"\", \"from\": \"\", \"message\": \"\"}`.\n * I'll set the `to` field to an empty string. This is typically where the recipient's phone number would go.\n * Similarly, the `from` field, which usually specifies the sender ID or number, will also be set to an empty string.\n * And the `message` field, which holds the actual text content, will also be left blank.\n * Configuring it this way means that when the Mocean node attempts to execute, it will make an API call without these essential pieces of information. Depending on the Mocean API, this might result in an error or a failed request, but it precisely fulfills the user's requirement to leave them blank.\n* **Configuration - Credentials**: The JSON also shows `\"credentials\": {\"moceanApi\": \"mocean\"}`. This indicates that this node requires authentication to connect to the Mocean service. In a real-world scenario, this is where the user would select their pre-configured Mocean API key or other authentication details that they've set up in their n8n instance. For this design explanation, I'll just note that credentials are required and would be linked here, but I won't infer or state any specific values beyond what's generically present in the JSON. I'll name the node \"Mocean\" as indicated in the JSON.\n\nFinally, I'll ensure the connection is correctly defined in the workflow's `connections` object. It should show that the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's `main` output connects to the \"Mocean\" node's `main` input. This completes the simple, two-node workflow as requested. It's a very straightforward sequential flow. No complex data transformations or branching are needed here, as the objective is simply to trigger the Mocean node with specific blank parameters." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a Webhook.

I'd drag out a **Webhook** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, typeVersion: `1`). This node is perfect for receiving external HTTP requests, which is exactly what we need to trigger our workflow and capture those query parameters. I'll set its path; it looks like a unique ID has been generated for `webhookId` and is also used for the `path` here, which is a common practice. For the `responseMode`, `lastNode` makes a lot of sense because we want the final processed data from the workflow to be returned as the webhook response, not just an immediate acknowledgment.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions performing an \"HMAC SHA256 crypto operation on the `crc_token` query parameter.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can handle cryptographic operations. The **Crypto** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.crypto`, typeVersion: `1`) is specifically designed for this purpose, so that's what I'll pick. I'll connect its main output from the Webhook node's main input, so the Crypto node receives the data that the Webhook just got.\n\nNow, let's configure this Crypto node. The prompt specifies \"HMAC SHA256.\" So, for the `action`, I'll set it to `hmac`. For the `type`, `SHA256` is the correct algorithm. The value we need to operate on is the `crc_token` query parameter from the incoming webhook request. I'll use an expression here to dynamically grab that value: `={{$json[\"query\"][\"crc_token\"]}}`. This expression tells n8n to look into the incoming data, find the `query` object (which holds all query parameters from the webhook), and then extract the `crc_token` from it. The prompt also specifies using \"API KEY SECRET\" as the secret, so I'll configure the `secret` field with a generic secret value (of course, in a real scenario, I'd input the actual secret key provided). Finally, the prompt states \"base64 encoding,\" so I'll set the `encoding` parameter to `base64`. This setup ensures the cryptographic operation is performed exactly as requested.\n\nAfter the crypto operation is done, the prompt requires us to \"set a `response_token` variable to the `sha256=` prefixed crypto result, ensuring only this variable is kept.\" This sounds like a job for the **Set** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.set`, typeVersion: `1`). The Set node is perfect for creating new variables or modifying existing ones, and crucially, it has the option to keep *only* the variables we define. I'll connect the Crypto node's main output to the Set node's main input.\n\nConfiguring the Set node involves adding a new value. I'll specify its name as `response_token`, as requested. For its `value`, we need to take the output from the Crypto node and prefix it with `sha256=`. The Crypto node outputs its result into a field named `data`. So, I'll use another expression here: `=sha256={{$json[\"data\"]}}`. This prepends \"sha256=\" to the base64-encoded HMAC SHA256 hash. Lastly, and this is critical for the \"ensuring only this variable is kept\" part, I need to go into the Set node's options and enable the `keepOnlySet` parameter. This will strip away all other incoming data and ensure that only our newly created `response_token` variable remains in the workflow's data, making the output clean and focused, exactly as required." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow named 'GetOnboardingFile How Does AI Work?' that triggers via a webhook.

Plus, it needs a specific name and a set of tags.\n\nThe name is pretty clear: \"GetOnboardingFile How Does AI Work?\". I'd set that right away for good organization. And the tags: 'AI Onboarding', 'Day1', 'Files', and 'Onboarding' \u2013 I'll make sure those are applied to the workflow's settings.\n\nNow, for the actual logic.\n\nThe first thing any workflow needs is a trigger. How does this workflow start? The prompt says \"triggers via a webhook.\" Perfect, that tells me exactly what node to begin with.\n\nI'd add a **Webhook** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the typeVersion is `2`. This node is designed to create a unique URL that, when accessed, will kick off this workflow. It's the entry point for external systems to interact with our workflow.\n\nWhen configuring this Webhook node, I'd definitely set the `responseMode` to `responseNode`. Why `responseNode`? Because we're not just acknowledging the webhook, we're going to perform an action (read a Google Doc) and *then* send back specific data. By choosing `responseNode`, I'm deferring the actual HTTP response until a later node explicitly sends it. If I picked `onReceived`, the webhook would respond immediately, and we wouldn't be able to send the Google Doc content. The `path` parameter for the webhook would be automatically generated, giving it a unique endpoint URL.\n\nNext up, once the webhook is received, what's the very next action? The prompt specifies: \"It should read the content from the Google Doc located at...\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can interact with Google Docs.\n\nSo, I'd add a **Google Docs** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and the typeVersion is `2`. This seems like the most straightforward choice for interacting with Google Docs.\n\nI'd connect the Webhook node's `main` output to the Google Docs node's `main` input. This ensures that when the webhook is triggered, the execution flow passes directly to the Google Docs operation.\n\nInside the Google Docs node, the `operation` needs to be set to `get`, because we want to *read* content from a document, not create or update one. For the `documentURL` parameter, I'd input the specific Google Doc URL provided in the prompt. This tells the node exactly which document to fetch. Of course, this node would require authentication, so I'd make sure a Google Docs OAuth2 API credential is properly configured and selected, allowing n8n to access the document on my behalf.\n\nNow, after the Google Docs node successfully reads the content, that content will be available in its output. The final step, according to the prompt, is to \"respond to the webhook with that document's content.\"\n\nSince I set the initial Webhook node to `responseMode: responseNode`, I need a specific node to send the response. That's where the **Respond to Webhook** node comes in. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and the typeVersion is `1.1`.\n\nI'd connect the Google Docs node's `main` output to the Respond to Webhook node's `main` input. This ensures that the document content retrieved by the Google Docs node is available for the Respond to Webhook node to use.\n\nInside the Respond to Webhook node, I need to specify what to send back. The document content is text, so I'd set `respondWith` to `text`. Then, for the `responseBody`, I'd use an expression to pull the content from the previous Google Docs node's output. I'd typically expect the document content to be in a property like `content` on the JSON output, so the expression would be `={{ $json.content }}`. This dynamic reference makes sure that whatever the Google Docs node retrieved is what gets sent back as the webhook response.\n\nAnd that completes the flow. The webhook triggers, the document is read, and its content is sent back as the response.

The goal is pretty clear: we need to create a DigitalOcean Droplet through their API. When I think about interacting with an external API, the first thing that comes to mind in n8n is almost always the \"HTTP Request\" node. It's the most flexible and powerful tool for making custom web requests.\n\nSo, the very first step would be to drag an \"HTTP Request\" node onto the canvas. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`, and it's using `typeVersion: 1`. This confirms my initial thought \u2013 it's the standard HTTP Request node.\n\nNow that we have the node, we need to configure it. The user prompt specifies creating a DigitalOcean Droplet, so I immediately think about the API endpoint. For DigitalOcean, creating a droplet typically involves a POST request to their `\/v2\/droplets` endpoint. So, the `URL` parameter within this \"HTTP Request\" node needs to be set to `https:\/\/api.digitalocean.com\/v2\/droplets`. This is where our request will be sent.\n\nNext, the prompt explicitly states \"Ensure it uses a POST request.\" This is crucial. When creating a new resource like a droplet, you almost always use the HTTP `POST` method. So, I'd go into the node's settings and change the `Request Method` parameter from its default (usually GET) to `POST`. The JSON confirms this with `requestMethod: \"POST\"`.\n\nNow, for the data we're sending. We need to tell DigitalOcean *what kind* of droplet to create. The prompt gives us specific details: name, region, size, and image. This information needs to be sent in the request body. When interacting with most modern REST APIs, this data is sent as JSON. So, before adding the actual parameters, I'd ensure the `Body Content Type` option within the HTTP Request node's `Options` is set to `JSON`. The JSON confirms this too, with `options: {\"bodyContentType\": \"json\"}`. This tells n8n to format our body parameters as a JSON object and set the appropriate `Content-Type` header for us.\n\nWith the body content type set, I can now input the specific droplet details. These will become the key-value pairs in our JSON request body.\nI'd navigate to the `Body Parameters` section within the node and start adding them one by one:\n* First, we need a `name`, and the prompt specifies `'API-creation-test'`.\n* Then, the `region`, which is `'blr1'`.\n* Next, the `size`, `'s-1vcpu-1gb'`.\n* And finally, the `image`, which is `'ubuntu-20-04-x64'`.\nThis perfectly matches the `bodyParametersUi.parameter` array in the provided JSON. These are the essential details the DigitalOcean API needs to provision our droplet.\n\nThe last critical piece of information for this request is authentication. The prompt clearly states: \"includes a Bearer token in the Authorization header.\" This is a very common way to authenticate with APIs.\nSo, I'd go into the `Header Parameters` section of the HTTP Request node. I'd add a new header. Its `Name` would be `Authorization`. And its `Value` would follow the Bearer token standard: `Bearer {your_personal_access_token}`. It's important to remember that `{your_personal_access_token}` is a placeholder. In a real-world scenario, this would be replaced with an actual API key, ideally managed securely through an n8n credential to avoid hardcoding sensitive information directly into the workflow. The JSON's `headerParametersUi.parameter` confirms this exact header configuration.\n\nAt this point, the node is fully configured to make the requested API call. Since it's a single-node workflow designed to initiate an action (creating a droplet), there are no connections to other nodes. It would typically be triggered manually, by a webhook, or on a schedule, depending on the overall workflow design. The `connections: {}` in the JSON confirms there are no links to other nodes.\n\nThat pretty much covers it. The \"HTTP Request\" node is versatile enough to handle this entire interaction with the DigitalOcean API, from specifying the URL and method to constructing the request body and handling authentication headers." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that sends a daily Telegram message at 6 AM.

The user wants a daily reminder on Telegram, specifically at 6 AM, asking about yesterday's activities with the date included.\n\nThe first thing I need to figure out is how to make this workflow *start* every day at a specific time. This immediately makes me think of a trigger node that handles schedules.\n\n### Node 1: Morning reminder (Type: n8n-nodes-base.cron, TypeVersion: 1)\n\nFor scheduling, the `Cron` node is perfect. It's designed specifically for time-based triggers. I'd add this as the very first node in the workflow because everything else depends on it being activated at the right time.\n\n* **Why this node?** It provides the precise daily scheduling capability needed.\n* **Configuration:** The user specified \"daily Telegram message at 6 AM\". So, I'll go into the `triggerTimes` parameter. Inside `item`, I'll set the `hour` to `6`. This ensures the workflow fires every day at 6 AM. I'll also set `alwaysOutputData` to `true` to ensure an item is always passed down the workflow, which is good practice for trigger nodes.\n* **Name:** A clear name like \"Morning reminder\" is fitting, as it reflects its purpose.\n* **Connection:** This node won't have an incoming connection as it's the trigger. It will output to the next step.\n\nNext, I need to address the message content. It's not just a static message; it needs to include \"yesterday's date\". This requires some dynamic calculation and formatting.\n\n### Node 2: format reminder (Type: n8n-nodes-base.functionItem, TypeVersion: 1)\n\nTo handle dynamic content like calculating yesterday's date and formatting it into a string, a `Function Item` node is the most flexible choice. It allows me to write custom JavaScript logic directly within the workflow.\n\n* **Why this node?** It provides the capability to execute custom code for date calculations and string formatting that a standard node might not offer directly in one go.\n* **Connection:** This node will receive the trigger from the \"Morning reminder\" node. The output of the `Cron` node will flow into this `Function Item` node, although the actual data from the `Cron` node isn't strictly necessary for the date calculation itself, only the *trigger* of its execution.\n* **Configuration:** Inside the `functionCode` parameter, I'll write the JavaScript logic.\n * First, I'll get today's date: `const today = new Date();`\n * Then, I'll create a new `Date` object based on today to represent yesterday: `const yesterday = new Date(today);`\n * Crucially, I need to modify this `yesterday` date by subtracting one day. I can do this using `yesterday.setDate(yesterday.getDate() - 1);`.\n * The date needs to be in a `YYYY-MM-DD` format. A common and robust way to achieve this is `yesterday.toISOString().split('T')[0]`.\n * Finally, I need to construct the full message string as requested: `\"What did you do:\"` followed by the formatted date. I'll use a template literal for easy string interpolation: ``const message = `What did you do: ${yesterday.toISOString().split('T')[0]}`;``\n * For the message to be accessible by the next node, I need to return it as part of an object: `return {message};`. This makes it available as `json.message` in subsequent nodes.\n* **Name:** \"format reminder\" clearly describes its function of preparing the reminder message.\n\nNow that the message is prepared with yesterday's date, the final step is to send it via Telegram.\n\n### Node 3: Send journal reminder (Type: n8n-nodes-base.telegram, TypeVersion: 1)\n\nThe user explicitly stated \"sends a daily Telegram message\". So, a `Telegram` node is the natural choice for the final action.\n\n* **Why this node?** It's specifically designed to interact with the Telegram API to send messages.\n* **Connection:** This node will receive the output from the \"format reminder\" node. Specifically, it will need to access the `message` property that was returned by the `Function Item` node.\n* **Configuration:**\n * **Text:** This is where the dynamically generated message goes. I'll use an expression to pull the `message` property from the \"format reminder\" node's output: `={{$node[\"format reminder\"].json[\"message\"]}}`. This ensures the message includes the correct yesterday's date.\n * **Chat ID:** The prompt specified the exact chat ID: `666884239`. I'll input this value directly into the `chatId` parameter.\n * **Credentials:** For the workflow to connect to Telegram, appropriate credentials (like a Telegram Bot Token) would need to be configured. This is a sensitive field, so I'll just note that the necessary Telegram API credentials would be selected here.\n* **Name:** \"Send journal reminder\" is a good descriptive name for this final action.\n\nThis completes the workflow. The `Cron` node triggers, the `Function Item` node prepares the dynamic message, and the `Telegram` node sends it to the specified chat ID." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger node. Connect this to a Microsoft SQL node, configured for the 'Execute Query' operation with an empty query field.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"query\": \"\", \"operation\": \"executeQuery\"}, \"name\": \"Microsoft SQL\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.microsoftSql\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Microsoft SQL\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is pretty clear about the starting point and the next step, which simplifies things.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick off this workflow manually. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger node.\" So, the most straightforward choice for that is the `Manual Trigger` node. I'd drag that onto the canvas. Looking at the provided JSON, it's named \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is a perfectly descriptive name for a node that starts the workflow when you manually click a button. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is really simple; it just acts as the entry point, so it doesn't have any specific parameters to configure beyond its presence. It's just there to provide that \"run now\" functionality.\n\nNext up, the prompt states that this manual trigger should connect to a \"Microsoft SQL node.\" So, my immediate thought is to add the `Microsoft SQL` node right after the trigger. This node is designed specifically for interacting with Microsoft SQL Server databases. The JSON confirms this choice, naming the node \"Microsoft SQL\" and its `type` as `n8n-nodes-base.microsoftSql` with `typeVersion` `1`.\n\nNow, how do I connect these two? The `Manual Trigger` node will essentially pass on a signal (or an empty item) to the next node to tell it to execute. So, I'll draw a connection from the output of my \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the input of the \"Microsoft SQL\" node. The JSON's `connections` block confirms this: the `main` output of the `manualTrigger` node connects to the `main` input of the `Microsoft SQL` node. This establishes a direct, sequential flow: once the trigger is manually activated, the SQL node will run.\n\nFinally, I need to configure the `Microsoft SQL` node according to the prompt. It says it should be \"configured for the 'Execute Query' operation with an empty query field.\"\nSo, I'd open up the settings for the \"Microsoft SQL\" node.\n* Under the `Operation` parameter, I'd select `Execute Query`. This is the core action this node needs to perform \u2013 running a SQL command. The JSON's `parameters` show `{\"operation\": \"executeQuery\"}`, which matches perfectly.\n* Then, for the `Query` field, the prompt explicitly states it should be \"empty.\" So, I'd make sure that field is completely blank. The JSON confirms this with `{\"query\": \"\"}`. This is quite specific; usually, you'd put an actual SQL statement here, like `SELECT * FROM MyTable;` or `INSERT INTO...`, but for this particular requirement, an empty string is exactly what's needed.\n* And of course, for any database interaction, credentials are vital. The JSON has `{\"credentials\": {\"microsoftSql\": \"\"}}`. In a real scenario, I'd select the pre-configured Microsoft SQL credentials that allow n8n to connect to my database. Without them, even with the correct operation and query, the node wouldn't be able to do anything. I wouldn't specify any actual credential values here, just know that a configured credential would be required for the workflow to function.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the setup for this workflow. It's a straightforward two-node setup designed for a very specific, minimal interaction with a SQL database." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFileIteration Methods\" that triggers via a webhook at `\/Oboarding\/PromptEngineer\/IterationMethods`.

The request is pretty clear: we need something that triggers, pulls a Google Doc, and then sends that content back.\n\nSo, first things first, how does this workflow get kicked off? The prompt says it \"triggers via a webhook at `\/Oboarding\/PromptEngineer\/IterationMethods`\". This immediately tells me I'm going to need a Webhook node. It's the standard way to expose an endpoint in n8n for external systems to call.\n\nLet's place that `Webhook` node (its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion` is `2`) right at the start, at position `[0, 0]`. Now, for its configuration. The `path` parameter is crucial here; it needs to be set to exactly `Oboarding\/PromptEngineer\/IterationMethods` as specified. Also, since the workflow needs to \"respond to the webhook with the retrieved document content,\" this isn't just a fire-and-forget webhook. It needs to wait for a response from a later node. So, the `responseMode` should be `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node to hold open the connection and expect another node down the line to provide the actual response.\n\nOkay, so the webhook's set up to listen. What's next? The prompt says, \"It should then use a Google Docs node to fetch content from `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1sJVUFcSfL5POnNNc9IQOk17MS9vgJ1DdYvPi2su1KHI\/edit?usp=drive_link`.\" This is straightforward. A `Google Docs` node is precisely what we need for this. It's designed to interact with Google Docs, whether it's reading, creating, or updating.\n\nSo, I'll connect the `Webhook` node's main output to a `Google Docs` node. I'll put it at position `[220, 0]`, a good distance to the right. The node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion` is `2`. Inside this node, the `operation` needs to be `get` because we're fetching content, not creating or updating. Then, the `documentURL` parameter will be configured with the specific URL provided in the prompt. Of course, interacting with Google Docs will require proper authentication, so a Google Docs OAuth2 API credential (like the one named \"Google Docs account\" here) would be needed and linked to this node. This allows n8n to securely access the document on behalf of the user.\n\nFinally, once we've fetched the content, we need to send it back to the original webhook caller. The prompt states \"finally respond to the webhook with the retrieved document content.\" This is where the `Respond to Webhook` node comes into play. It's specifically designed to close the loop on a `responseNode` mode webhook.\n\nI'll connect the `Google Docs` node's main output to the `Respond to Webhook` node, placing it at `[440, 0]`. This `Respond to Webhook` node has `type` `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion` `1.1`. For its configuration, we want to send the raw text of the document. So, the `respondWith` parameter should be set to `text`. The crucial part is getting the *actual* document content into the `responseBody`. The Google Docs node, when it performs a 'get' operation, typically outputs the document content in a field like `content`. So, an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` is perfect here. This tells the node to grab the `content` property from the data passed into it (which comes from the Google Docs node) and use that as the response body.\n\nLooking at the overall structure, the `Webhook` triggers, passes control to `Google Docs` to get the content, and then `Google Docs` passes that content to `Respond to Webhook`, which finally sends it back to the original caller. This is a very clean and direct flow. The connections simply chain the execution from one node to the next, with each node's output becoming the input for the subsequent one. The workflow's name \"GetOnboardingFileIteration Methods\" and the associated tags like 'Onboarding', 'PromptEngineer', 'Files', and 'Day 2' are also important; they help categorize and describe the workflow's purpose, making it easier to find and manage in a larger n8n instance. This whole setup perfectly aligns with the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that creates a new task in ClickUp when manually triggered.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Create a task in ClickUp\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"list\": \"\", \"name\": \"\", \"team\": \"\", \"space\": \"\", \"folder\": \"\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"ClickUp\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.clickUp\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"ClickUp\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's break down this workflow design from the ground up, as if I'm building it right now.\n\nThe user's request is quite clear: \"Create an n8n workflow that creates a new task in ClickUp when manually triggered.\" This immediately tells me two main things: I need a way to *start* the workflow manually, and I need a way to *interact with ClickUp* to create a task.\n\nSo, where do I start? Every workflow needs a trigger \u2013 something that kicks it off. Since the requirement is \"manually triggered,\" my first thought goes straight to the most straightforward option in n8n for this: the Manual Trigger node.\n\nLet's add that first.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Why this node?** It's explicitly designed for situations where you want to execute the workflow yourself, by clicking a button in the n8n interface. It doesn't listen for external events; it just fires on command. This perfectly matches the \"manually triggered\" requirement. Looking at the JSON, its `parameters` are empty, which is exactly what I'd expect for a basic manual trigger. There's no specific configuration needed for it to simply fire.\n\nNow that I have my trigger, what's the next logical step? The workflow needs to \"create a new task in ClickUp.\" This means I need a node that can talk to the ClickUp API. n8n has a dedicated integration for ClickUp.\n\nSo, I'll add the ClickUp node next. This node will receive the signal from my manual trigger.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.clickUp`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Why this node?** This is the direct tool for interacting with ClickUp. It handles the API calls necessary to perform actions like creating tasks, updating tasks, or fetching information. It's the right choice for the \"create a new task\" part of the requirement.\n\nNow, how do I connect these two? The `manualTrigger` needs to tell the `ClickUp` node to do its job. I'll draw a connection from the `manualTrigger`'s main output to the `ClickUp` node's main input. This signifies a direct flow of execution: when the manual trigger fires, it passes control (and an empty data item, in this case) to the ClickUp node, prompting it to execute. The JSON reflects this with `connections: {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"ClickUp\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This is a standard sequential flow.\n\nNext, I need to configure the `ClickUp` node to actually create a task. What information does ClickUp need to create a task?\n* First, it needs to know *where* to create the task. ClickUp tasks live within a hierarchy: Team > Space > Folder > List. The JSON shows `team`, `space`, `folder`, and `list` parameters. These are crucial for specifying the exact location. Right now, they're empty in the JSON, meaning that in a real-world scenario, I'd need to go into the n8n UI, select my ClickUp credentials (which I'll get to in a moment), and then use the dropdowns to pick the specific team, space, folder, and list where I want the task to be created.\n* Second, a task needs a name! The `name` parameter is there for this purpose. Again, it's empty in the JSON, indicating that the user would manually input the desired task title here when setting up the workflow. For example, if I wanted to create a task called \"Review Q3 Report,\" I'd type that into the 'name' field in the n8n editor.\n* The `additionalFields` parameter is an empty object `{}`. This is really useful! It means that beyond the basic name and location, I could also configure things like the task's description, assignees, due date, priority, or even custom fields if I wanted to. Since it's empty, no such extra details are being set for the task currently, but the option is there for future expansion.\n\nFinally, for the `ClickUp` node to actually communicate with my ClickUp account, it needs credentials. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"clickUpApi\": \"\"}`. This is where I would link the workflow to my ClickUp API key or OAuth credentials that I've securely stored in n8n. Without this, the node wouldn't be able to authenticate and would fail to create the task. I'd typically set this up once in n8n's credentials section and then select it here.\n\nThe `active: false` property in the main workflow JSON just means the workflow isn't currently running in production mode. It's typical for a workflow that's being designed or refined.\n\nAnd that's it! The `manualTrigger` fires, passes control to the `ClickUp` node, which then uses the configured (or, in this JSON, empty but ready-to-be-configured) parameters and credentials to create a new task in the specified ClickUp list.

The prompt is clear: we need a workflow to publish a WordPress post, including image management, all triggered manually. The title \"[UDIA] Publicar post en WordPress + Imagen\" also helps frame the overall purpose.\n\nSo, where do we start? A workflow always needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly states \"start with a manual trigger.\" That's easy enough.\n\nI'll pick the `manualTrigger` node. Looking at the JSON, it's identified as `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is absolutely perfect for our needs because it allows a human user to initiate the workflow directly from the n8n interface. It's essentially a \"start now\" button for the workflow. No complex setup is needed for this node itself; its `parameters` are empty, which is typical for a basic manual trigger. Its position `[-420, -40]` indicates its placement on the canvas, usually on the far left, which makes sense as the starting point.\n\nOkay, so we have our trigger. What's next? The prompt mentions \"publish a post via a WordPress node.\" This is the core action. So, naturally, the `manualTrigger` should connect directly to a WordPress node.\n\nI'll bring in a `Wordpress` node. The JSON confirms this as `n8n-nodes-base.wordpress` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is the dedicated n8n node for interacting with WordPress sites, perfect for publishing posts, pages, or managing other content. Its purpose here is specifically to create or update a post. For its configuration, the `parameters` show `additionalFields: {}`. This is where all the post-specific details would go: the post title, content, status (draft, pending, publish), categories, tags, and crucial for our goal, potentially the featured image ID or other image-related metadata. We wouldn't be able to infer the exact values from this general setup, but this is where the magic happens for the WordPress post itself. The `connections` section in the JSON confirms the `manualTrigger` feeds directly into this `Wordpress` node. It's positioned at `[-200, -40]`, a logical step to the right from the trigger.\n\nNow, the prompt gets interesting: \"followed by two consecutive HTTP Request nodes to handle additional tasks like image management.\" This implies that the WordPress node itself might publish the basic post, but image handling, perhaps uploading to a specific media library or setting a featured image dynamically after the post is created, requires additional API calls that the standard WordPress node might not cover in this specific scenario, or perhaps it's an external image service.\n\nSo, coming out of the `Wordpress` node, we need an `HTTP Request` node. The JSON shows one named \"HTTP Request\" (ID: `84713d1b-03a4-42a5-850b-829c922f8736`), of type `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` with `typeVersion: 4.2`. This is a general-purpose node for making any kind of HTTP call to an external API or service. It's incredibly versatile. For image management tasks that go beyond the basic WordPress node's capabilities, an HTTP Request node is exactly what you'd use. It could be for uploading an image to the WordPress REST API's media endpoint if that wasn't handled by the main WordPress node, or maybe to an external CDN, or even triggering a webhook on another service. The `parameters` for this node show `options: {}`. This is where you would configure the HTTP method (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE), the URL of the endpoint, headers for authentication (like an API key or bearer token, which we wouldn't specify here), and the request body containing the image data or a reference to it. Its position is `[20, -40]`, continuing the flow to the right.\n\nAnd, as the prompt states, there are *two* consecutive HTTP Request nodes. So, the first `HTTP Request` node must connect to another one.\n\nIndeed, the JSON shows another `HTTP Request` node, named \"HTTP Request1\" (ID: `5f717e82-b7a2-4760-be26-c4c000da50c8`), also `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` with `typeVersion: 4.2`. This is the second step in the image management process. Perhaps the first HTTP request uploads the image and receives an ID or URL, and this second HTTP request then uses that information to *associate* the image with the newly created WordPress post, or to trigger a resize service, or perform some final cleanup. Just like the first one, its `parameters` for `options` would be configured with the specific details of this subsequent API call. It's positioned at `[200, -40]`, neatly following the previous one.\n\nAnd that completes the sequence based on the connections and nodes provided in the JSON. A manual trigger, publishing to WordPress, and then two distinct HTTP calls for extended image handling or related post-publishing tasks. The `connections` object perfectly maps this linear flow: `manualTrigger` -> `Wordpress` -> `HTTP Request` -> `HTTP Request1`. Seems like a solid plan for the specified workflow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Get Weather' that starts with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' and then sets a field named 'response' to the value 'Weather is sunny'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get Weather\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [560, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"Weather is sunny\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, 340]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants to build an n8n workflow, and it sounds pretty straightforward: name it 'Get Weather', kick it off with a specific trigger, and then have it output a fixed weather message.\n\nFirst things first, I need to set up the workflow itself. The prompt clearly states it should be named 'Get Weather'. So, that's the very first configuration point for the entire workflow. That's easy enough.\n\nNow, looking at the core logic, the user explicitly states it needs to \"start with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger'\". This immediately tells me what my initial node will be. I'd drag in an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node. Its node type is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`, and the JSON shows `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect for situations where you want to start a workflow not based on an incoming webhook or schedule, but rather by another workflow or an external command telling it to run. It acts as a simple entry point, essentially just kicking things off when it receives the signal. For this particular request, where we just want to produce a specific output without complex initial data handling, it's a suitable starting point.\n\nOkay, so we have our trigger. What's next? The prompt specifies, \"then sets a field named 'response' to the value 'Weather is sunny'.\" This sounds like we need a node that can manipulate data, specifically setting new fields or modifying existing ones. My go-to node for this kind of task is the 'Set' node, often labeled as 'Edit Fields' in the UI.\n\nSo, I'd connect the 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node to a new 'Set' node. The connection would be from the 'main' output of the 'Execute Workflow Trigger' to the 'main' input of the 'Set' node. This ensures that once the trigger fires, the execution flow seamlessly moves to the next step to process data.\n\nNow, let's configure this 'Set' node. Its node type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and the JSON shows `typeVersion: 3.4`. This version implies it has certain features or improvements over older versions, but for simple field assignment, the core functionality remains the same. I'd typically rename this node to something descriptive like \"Edit Fields\" or \"Set Weather Response\" to make the workflow self-documenting, and the JSON actually names it \"Edit Fields\", which is good.\n\nInside the 'Set' node, I need to add an assignment. The goal is to set a field named 'response' with the value 'Weather is sunny'. So, I'd go into the 'Assignments' section. I'd add a new assignment.\nFor the 'Name' of the field, I'd input `response`.\nFor the 'Value', I'd type in `Weather is sunny`.\nAnd for the 'Type', since \"Weather is sunny\" is plain text, I'd select `string`. This ensures the data type is correctly represented in the output. The JSON confirms this exact configuration: `name: \"response\"`, `value: \"Weather is sunny\"`, `type: \"string\"`.\n\nThat looks like it covers all the requirements. The workflow starts with the trigger, then flows directly into the 'Set' node which creates the desired 'response' field with the specified value. The connections are straightforward, passing the execution flow from the trigger to the data manipulation node. It's a simple, linear workflow, perfectly fulfilling the user's request. No further nodes are needed as the goal is just to set a value." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object for an n8n workflow.

The request is pretty clear: it needs to start with a webhook, grab content from a specific Google Doc, and then send that content back as a plain text response. Plus, it has some specific naming and tagging requirements.\n\nFirst things first, I'll set up the core workflow definition. I'll give it the name \"GetOnboardingFile What is Prompt Engineering?\", which is specified in the prompt. It also needs to be active, so I'll set the `active` property to `true`. This ensures it's ready to receive triggers as soon as it's deployed or saved.\n\nNow, let's think about the actual flow of data and operations.\n\nThe very first requirement is that the workflow should \"start with a webhook.\" So, the absolute first node I need to place is a trigger node, and specifically, a webhook. I'll pick the `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node. Looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 2`. This node is perfect because it acts as a listener for incoming HTTP requests, which is exactly what a webhook is. It's the entry point to our workflow. I'll give it a simple name like \"Webhook\" for clarity. Inside its parameters, I'll define a unique `path` where it will listen for requests. It's also crucial to set its `responseMode` to `responseNode`, because we're planning to send a response back later in the workflow using a dedicated response node, not directly from the webhook trigger itself.\n\nNext, once the webhook is triggered, what's the immediate action? We need to \"retrieve content from the Google Doc URL.\" This clearly points to an integration with Google Docs. So, the next node in the sequence will be the `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` node. The `typeVersion` for this one is `2`. This node is designed to interact with Google Docs, allowing us to perform various operations like getting, creating, or updating documents. I'll connect its input to the output of my \"Webhook\" node.\n\nFor configuring this Google Docs node, the primary operation needed is `get`, as we're retrieving content. So, I'll set its `operation` parameter to `get`. It will also need a specific Google Doc URL to know which document to fetch; this would be configured under the `documentURL` parameter. Of course, to access Google Docs, this node will require authentication, likely an OAuth2 credential, which would be linked in the `credentials` section. This credential would handle the necessary permissions to read the document.\n\nFinally, after successfully retrieving the document's content, the requirement states, \"then respond to the webhook with the retrieved document's content as plain text.\" This calls for a dedicated response node. The `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` node is the ideal choice here, and its `typeVersion` is `1.1`. This node is specifically designed to send an HTTP response back to the original webhook caller. I'll connect its input to the output of the \"Google Docs\" node, ensuring that the Google Doc content is available to it.\n\nFor its configuration, I need to specify that the response should be plain text, so I'll set `respondWith` to `text`. And the most critical part is telling it *what* content to send back. The Google Docs node, when it successfully retrieves a document, typically outputs the document's content in a field, often named `content`. So, I'll use an expression in the `responseBody` parameter to dynamically pull this data: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression ensures that the content from the previous \"Google Docs\" node's output is directly used as the response body.\n\nLooking at the overall connections, it's a straightforward linear flow: \"Webhook\" connects to \"Google Docs\", and \"Google Docs\" connects to \"Respond to Webhook.\" The `connections` object confirms this, showing the `main` output of \"Webhook\" feeding into \"Google Docs\", and `main` output of \"Google Docs\" feeding into \"Respond to Webhook\". This is exactly what we designed.\n\nLastly, the prompt also mentioned adding specific tags: \"AI Onboarding\", \"Day3\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding\". These will be added to the workflow's `tags` property, helping with organization and searchability within the n8n instance. These are just metadata for categorizing the workflow.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the entire workflow logic and structure." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Search DB' that, when triggered, sets a 'response' field to '10 results found'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Search DB\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [640, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"10 results found\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [860, 380]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this n8n workflow from the ground up, thinking about how we'd build it to meet the user's request: \"Create an n8n workflow named 'Search DB' that, when triggered, sets a 'response' field to '10 results found'.\"\n\nFirst, I need to name this workflow. The prompt clearly states it should be named \"Search DB\". That's simple enough.\n\nNow, for the actual logic. Every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The request says \"when triggered,\" which implies it's not a scheduled event or an incoming HTTP request specifically, but rather a generic trigger.\n\nSo, the very first node I'd reach for is the `Execute Workflow Trigger` node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Reasoning:** This is the most straightforward way to create a workflow that can be initiated by an external event or another workflow within n8n. It's like a general-purpose \"start here\" button. It doesn't require complex configurations like a Webhook node would (which would need a specific URL), or a Cron node (which would need a schedule). For a simple \"when triggered\" requirement, this is perfect. Looking at the JSON, its `parameters` block is empty, which confirms it's a default, unconfigured trigger, just waiting to be activated. I wouldn't need to adjust anything specific here for this use case.\n\nNext, the core requirement is to \"set a 'response' field to '10 results found'.\" This sounds like a data manipulation task. I need a node that can take the incoming data (which, in this case, from the `Execute Workflow Trigger` node, will just be an empty or default item) and add or modify a field within it.\n\nThe ideal node for this is the `Set` node. In the JSON, it's named \"Edit Fields\", which is a common custom name for a Set node in n8n.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** 3.4\n* **Reasoning:** The `Set` node is explicitly designed for adding, modifying, or even removing fields from the data items flowing through the workflow. It's incredibly versatile for shaping data. Other nodes could *output* data, but the `Set` node *manipulates* the existing data item, which is exactly what's needed here \u2013 taking an item and adding the \"response\" field to it. Version 3.4 is a recent version, likely with minor improvements or UI tweaks, but its core functionality of setting fields remains consistent across many versions.\n\nNow, let's configure this `Set` node based on the JSON. I need to define the field to be set.\n* Under its `parameters`, there's an `assignments` array. This is where I define each field I want to set.\n* The JSON shows one assignment:\n * `name`: \"response\" - This is the name of the new field I want to create or update. This perfectly matches the prompt.\n * `value`: \"10 results found\" - This is the exact static string value I need to assign to the \"response\" field.\n * `type`: \"string\" - This specifies that the value \"10 results found\" should be treated as a text string, which is correct for this data.\n* There are also `options` but they are empty. This means I'm not using any advanced features like \"Keep Only Set\" (which would remove all other fields and only keep 'response') or \"Merge Data\". I just want to add this field to the existing data item from the trigger, which is the default behavior.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The logical flow is that after the workflow is triggered, the data should immediately go to the `Set` node to have the \"response\" field added.\n* **Connection:** The `Execute Workflow Trigger` node's main output should connect to the `Edit Fields` (Set) node's main input.\n* **How data passes:** The `Execute Workflow Trigger` will typically output one empty data item when activated. This item will then flow into the `Edit Fields` node. The `Edit Fields` node will take that item, add the \"response\" field with \"10 results found\" as its value, and then output that modified item. So, by the time the data leaves the `Edit Fields` node, it will contain the desired \"response\" field.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it. The workflow is designed to start, immediately add the required field to the data, and then finish. The `active` status is `false`, meaning it's created but not yet running, which is standard for a newly built workflow." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object for an inactive configuration named \"Ads Facebook\" with the ID \"y84JeInexdPXwgLF\" and `versionId` \"c89e9228-b561-4501-8bce-3d13b05bcccf\".

The prompt explicitly states the workflow should be named \"Ads Facebook.\" This is crucial for organization, so I'd immediately set the workflow's `name` property to \"Ads Facebook.\"\n\nNext, the prompt specifies that it's an \"inactive configuration.\" This is a fundamental state for the entire workflow. So, right at the top level, I'd ensure the `active` property is set to `false`. This means the workflow won't automatically execute or listen for triggers once saved; it's a dormant blueprint for now.\n\nThen, there are the unique identifiers and timestamps. The prompt provides a specific `id` (\"y84JeInexdPXwgLF\"), a `versionId` (\"c89e9228-b561-4501-8bce-3d13b05bcccf\"), and exact `createdAt` and `updatedAt` timestamps (\"2025-04-17T12:29:30.578Z\"). While n8n typically generates these automatically upon creation and saving, when designing or exporting a specific configuration, I'd ensure these values are precisely as requested. These fields act as unique fingerprints and a timeline for the workflow's lifecycle.\n\nThe `triggerCount` is specified as `0`. This makes perfect sense for a newly created or inactive workflow \u2013 it hasn't been successfully triggered by any event yet.\n\nNow, I'd look at the workflow's overall settings. The prompt asks for `settings` with `executionOrder: \"v1\"`. This dictates how any future nodes within the workflow would process data and execute. \"v1\" is the standard, sequential execution model, which is perfectly suitable as a default. If I were designing a more complex workflow that needed advanced concurrent processing or different data flow paradigms, I might consider other execution orders if available, but \"v1\" is the foundational choice here.\n\nMoving on to the actual components of the workflow, this is where it gets interesting. The prompt explicitly states that `connections`, `nodes`, `pinData`, and `tags` should be empty, and `meta`\/`staticData` should be `null`.\n\nSince the `nodes` array is empty, it means this workflow currently has no automation steps, no triggers, and no operations defined within it. It's literally an empty container. My thought process here is simply to ensure that no nodes are added. If this \"Ads Facebook\" workflow were intended to, say, post updates to a Facebook page, I would typically start by adding a \"Cron\" node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.cron`, typeVersion: `1`) for scheduling, or perhaps an \"HTTP Request\" node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`, typeVersion: `1`) if it's meant to be triggered by an external webhook. But for this specific requirement, the workflow is designed to be completely devoid of operational components.\n\nBecause there are no nodes, it naturally follows that `connections` would be an empty object. Connections define the flow of data between nodes, and if there are no nodes to connect, this object remains empty.\n\nSimilarly, `pinData` is an empty object. `pinData` typically stores information about nodes that are \"pinned\" to the workflow canvas for quick access. With no nodes present, there's nothing to pin.\n\nThe `tags` array is also empty. Tags are useful for categorizing and searching workflows, especially in a large collection. For a new, inactive workflow, having no tags is perfectly normal, though I might consider adding some later if it were part of a larger project like \"Social Media Integrations\" or \"Marketing Automation.\"\n\nFinally, `meta` and `staticData` are both `null`. `meta` is typically for arbitrary metadata associated with the workflow, and `staticData` for persistent, non-volatile data that nodes might need to access across executions. Since this workflow is inactive and contains no nodes, there's no need for any additional metadata or static data to be stored at this stage.\n\nSo, the design here is essentially to create a perfectly valid, but completely empty, inactive n8n workflow, adhering precisely to all the top-level properties and ensuring no operational nodes or related structures are present. It's a clean slate, ready to be built upon later if needed, but currently serving as a placeholder or template." } { "prompt": "Design a workflow named 'Social Media Post Generator' that takes a query as input to an AI Agent.

The user prompt clearly states \"takes a query as input\". This means I need a way to trigger the workflow and provide that initial piece of information.\n\nLooking at the n8n nodes available for triggers, an `Execute Workflow Trigger` seems like a perfect fit for a scenario where this workflow might be called by another workflow, an API, or even manually in a testing environment. It allows defining specific inputs.\n\nSo, the first node I'd add is the **\"When Executed by Another Workflow\"** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node is ideal because it acts as an entry point for the workflow, allowing data to be passed into it.\n* For its configuration, I'd go into its parameters and define the `workflowInputs`. I know I need a \"query\" input, so I'd add an input field named `query` there. This sets up the expectation that when this workflow runs, it'll receive a `query` variable.\n\nNow that I have the input, the prompt says this input goes \"to an AI Agent.\" This makes it clear what the next step should be. I'll need an AI Agent node to process that query.\n\nI'd connect the `main` output of the \"When Executed by Another Workflow\" node to the `main` input of my new AI Agent node. This ensures the data, including our `query`, flows from the trigger into the agent.\n\nSo, the next node I'd bring in is the **\"AI Agent\"** node.\n* Its type is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.agent` and `typeVersion: 1.9`. This specific node type is designed for leveraging AI agents, which can interpret prompts and potentially use tools (though in this case, it seems to be primarily for generation). It's the core of fulfilling the \"AI Agent\" requirement.\n* How should I configure it? The prompt mentions it should \"act as a helpful assistant generating professional social media content based on the query.\" This sounds like a perfect fit for a `systemMessage`.\n * Under its `parameters`, I'd set the `promptType` to `define`, so I can directly provide the instructions.\n * For the `text` field, I need to pass the `query` that came from the previous node. I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.query }}` to dynamically pull that input. This ensures the agent receives the user's specific request.\n * And for the `options`, specifically the `systemMessage`, I'd put \"You are a helpful assistant who creates professional social media content.\" This provides the essential context and persona for the AI, guiding its output.\n\nAn AI Agent, by itself, doesn't generate text; it needs an underlying Language Model. The prompt specifies \"powered by GPT-4o-mini.\" This tells me exactly which language model node I need to add and how to configure it.\n\nSo, I'll add an **\"OpenAI Chat Model\"** node.\n* Its type is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatOpenAi` and `typeVersion: 1.2`. This is the standard node for interacting with OpenAI's chat-based models.\n* For its `parameters`, the most critical configuration here is selecting the model. I'd set the `model` to `gpt-4o-mini`, as specifically requested.\n* Of course, this node would also require credentials, so I'd make sure an OpenAI API credential is provided here for authentication.\n\nNow, how do I link the OpenAI Chat Model to the AI Agent? The AI Agent needs to *use* this language model. There's a specific connection type for this in n8n's LangChain nodes. I'd connect the `ai_languageModel` output of the \"OpenAI Chat Model\" node to the `ai_languageModel` input of the \"AI Agent\" node. This establishes the necessary relationship, telling the agent which AI to send its requests to.\n\nFinally, I see a \"Sticky Note\" node. This isn't functional for the workflow execution itself, but it's great for organization and clarity on the canvas.\n\nSo, I'd add a **\"Sticky Note\"** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.stickyNote` and `typeVersion: 1`.\n* For its `parameters`, I'd set the `content` to \"## Social Media Post Generator\\n\". This just gives a nice, prominent title on the workflow canvas, making it easy to identify the purpose of this section or the entire workflow at a glance. It's purely for visual documentation and user experience within the n8n editor.\n\nThat pretty much completes the workflow as per the JSON and the user's prompt.

The prompt clearly states it \"starts with a manual trigger named 'When clicking \"Test workflow\"'\". So, my very first step would be to add that trigger node.\n\nI'd search for a \"manual trigger\" type, and specifically, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node, which has `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to allow a user to manually initiate the workflow, exactly as requested. I'd set its name to \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\". Looking at the JSON, there are no specific parameters needed for this node; it just sits there, waiting for a click.\n\nNext, the prompt says, \"Connect this to a 'Switch' node named 'Switch'\". This tells me exactly what comes after the trigger. So, I'd connect the `main` output of my \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" node to the `main` input of a new `Switch` node.\n\nFor this new node, I'd choose the `n8n-nodes-base.switch` type, which has `typeVersion: 3`. The Switch node is essential when you need to route workflow execution down different paths based on certain conditions. It's like a crossroads in the workflow. I'd name this node \"Switch\" as specified.\n\nNow, let's look at the Switch node's configuration in the JSON. I see `rules` are defined, specifically `values` which is an array with three items. This means the Switch node is set up to have three potential output branches.\nThe first rule (`index: 0`) has a `conditions` object, but it's largely empty or default, indicating no specific condition has been fully configured yet. It looks like it's just a placeholder for a rule that might eventually check if a `leftValue` equals a `rightValue`, but right now, it's inactive.\nThe second rule (`index: 1`) and the third rule (`index: 2`) are just empty objects `{}`, meaning no conditions are set for these branches either.\nThis tells me that while the Switch node is in place, its actual branching logic isn't yet defined. It's ready to have conditions added, but as is, it wouldn't logically direct data based on any criteria. The `options` parameter is also empty, meaning no special behavior like \"pass through\" or \"stop on first match\" is configured.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies, \"whose third output then connects to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields'.\" This is crucial. From the \"Switch\" node, I need to take the *third* output branch. In n8n's internal structure, output branches are zero-indexed, so the \"third output\" refers to `index: 2`. I would then draw a connection from this specific output of the \"Switch\" node to the input of my final node.\n\nThat final node is a `Set` node, named \"Edit Fields\". I'd select the `n8n-nodes-base.set` type, which in the JSON is `typeVersion: 3.3`. The Set node is commonly used to add, modify, or remove data fields on the items passing through it. It's perfect for preparing or cleaning up data before it moves to another system, or simply for \"editing fields\" as its name suggests.\n\nWhen I look at the parameters for the \"Edit Fields\" node in the JSON, I see `options` is empty. There are no `values` defined to actually set any fields. This implies that just like the Switch node, the \"Edit Fields\" node is correctly placed and named, but its specific action\u2014what fields it should edit and how\u2014is not yet configured. It's a blank canvas, ready for definition.\n\nSo, to summarize the flow: manual trigger initiates, passes data to a switch that's set up for three branches but has no active rules, and then specifically the third (unconditional) branch of that switch leads to a set node that is also currently unconfigured but ready to modify data. The structure is there, fulfilling the prompt's requirements, and ready for further logical configuration." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile Generate LinkedIn message templates\" that uses a webhook at `\/onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/GenerateLinkedInMessageTemplates` to retrieve the content of the Google Doc at `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1-J_D7v2BVlmSwE6XpA90kzL_VXqz-hbdAd_cpy_mRj4\/edit?tab=t.0` and respond with its text.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFile Generate LinkedIn message templates\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/GenerateLinkedInMessageTemplates\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1-J_D7v2BVlmSwE6XpA90kzL_VXqz-hbdAdPcpy_mRj4\/edit?tab=t.0\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow designed and built. The goal here is pretty clear: we need to set up a specific webhook, have it fetch the content of a Google Doc, and then send that content back as the webhook's response.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The user prompt explicitly states \"uses a webhook at `\/onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/GenerateLinkedInMessageTemplates`\". So, my very first thought is, \"Okay, I need a Webhook node.\" This is the standard way to initiate a workflow from an external HTTP request.\n\nSo, I'll add the **Webhook** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and I'll use `typeVersion 2`, which is a robust, commonly used version for webhooks.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Webhook node? The prompt gives me the exact path: `\/onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/GenerateLinkedInMessageTemplates`. So, I'll set the 'Path' parameter to `'onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/GenerateLinkedInMessageTemplates'`.\n\nAn important consideration here is how the webhook will respond. The prompt says \"retrieve the content... and respond with its text.\" This means the webhook shouldn't just send an immediate success message; it needs to wait for the document retrieval to complete and then send *that* data. This tells me I need to set the 'Response Mode' parameter of the Webhook node to `'responseNode'`. This setting ensures that the webhook will pause execution and wait for a subsequent \"Respond to Webhook\" node to send the actual response. If I didn't set this, the webhook might respond before we even get the document, which isn't what we want.\n\nOkay, the trigger is set up. What's next? The core action is to \"retrieve the content of the Google Doc.\" For that, I'll need a node that can interact with Google Docs. The obvious choice is the **Google Docs** node.\n\nI'll connect the 'main' output of my Webhook node to the 'main' input of this new Google Docs node. Data flow-wise, the webhook just triggers the workflow; it doesn't necessarily pass crucial data for the Google Docs node, but the connection signifies the sequence.\n\nNow, configuring the Google Docs node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and `typeVersion 2` is appropriate here.\nThe operation needed is to get the content of a document, so I'll set the 'Operation' parameter to `'get'`.\nThen, I need to tell it *which* document to get. The prompt gives a very specific URL: `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1-J_D7v2BVlmSwE6XpA90kz_VXqz-hbdAd_cpy_mRj4\/edit?tab=t.0`. So, I'll set the 'Document URL' parameter to that specific document URL. This is where the node knows what to fetch.\nOf course, to access Google Docs, this node will require authentication. I'd typically link it to a pre-configured Google Docs OAuth2 API credential.\n\nSo, we have the trigger, and we have the action to get the document. The final step, as stated in the prompt, is to \"respond with its text.\" This is where that `responseMode: 'responseNode'` setting on the Webhook comes into play. I need a node specifically for responding to the original webhook request.\n\nThat node is the **Respond to Webhook** node.\n\nI'll connect the 'main' output of the Google Docs node to the 'main' input of the Respond to Webhook node. This ensures that the response is only sent *after* the Google Docs node has successfully retrieved the document content.\n\nNow for the configuration of the Respond to Webhook node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, and `typeVersion 1.1` is perfectly fine for this.\nThe prompt specifies \"respond with its text,\" so the 'Respond With' parameter should be set to `'text'`. This tells n8n to send a plain text response.\nFinally, what content should be in that text response? It should be the content of the Google Doc we just retrieved. The Google Docs 'get' operation typically outputs the document's content in a field named `content`. So, I'll use an expression for the 'Response Body' parameter: `={{ $json.content }}`. This tells the node to take the value of the `content` property from the data that the previous Google Docs node passed along, which is exactly what we want.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow flows from the webhook trigger, fetches the document, and then responds with the fetched text. Seems complete for the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

Connect it to a DebugHelper node configured to generate 100 random data items using a seed of 0.\"\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly states it should \"start with a manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me what my first node must be. I'll look for a node that allows a user to initiate the workflow directly from the n8n interface.\n\nSo, I'd pick the **Manual Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and checking the provided JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to start a workflow when a user clicks the \"Test workflow\" button, or when activated manually in production. It doesn't require any special parameters; it just acts as a simple button press to kick things off. I'd place this node at a logical starting position on my canvas, perhaps towards the left, like the JSON suggests at `[780, 500]`.\n\nNow that I have my trigger, what's next? The prompt states: \"Connect it to a DebugHelper node.\" This is my next essential component. The `DebugHelper` node, with `type: n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper` and `typeVersion: 1` as per the JSON, is incredibly versatile for testing and generating data, which is exactly what's needed here. It's not typically used for production logic, but it's fantastic for development, debugging, and simulating data, which is what \"generate random data\" implies. I'd place this node to the right of my `Manual Trigger`, as it's the next step in the flow, so `[1000, 500]` looks about right.\n\nWith both nodes identified, I need to connect them. The `Manual Trigger`'s job is simply to pass control to the next node once activated. It doesn't output any specific data in this scenario; it just signals that the workflow should proceed. So, I'll connect the primary output of the `Manual Trigger` node \u2013 usually labeled `main` \u2013 to the primary input of the `DebugHelper` node, also typically labeled `main`. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, the `DebugHelper` node will execute immediately afterward.\n\nNow, for the `DebugHelper` node's configuration. The prompt has very specific requirements: \"configured to generate 100 random data items using a seed of 0.\"\n\nThis means I need to dive into the parameters of the `DebugHelper` node:\n* First, to \"generate random data items,\" I need to set the `category` parameter. The JSON shows `category: \"randomData\"`, which is exactly what I'd choose. This setting tells the DebugHelper to switch from just displaying input data to generating new, random data.\n* Next, for \"100 random data items,\" I'd look for a parameter controlling the count of items. The `randomDataCount` parameter, set to `100` in the JSON, fits this perfectly. This ensures that the node outputs exactly 100 distinct data items.\n* Finally, \"using a seed of 0.\" A seed is crucial for generating reproducible \"random\" data. If you use the same seed, you'll always get the same sequence of \"random\" numbers or data. This is super helpful for testing, ensuring that my workflow behaves consistently across runs. So, the `randomDataSeed` parameter needs to be set to `0`.\n\nAnd that's it! By setting up the `Manual Trigger` to kick things off, connecting it to the `DebugHelper`, and then carefully configuring the `DebugHelper` to generate the specified quantity of seeded random data, the workflow perfectly matches the user's requirements. The flow is simple: trigger -> generate data. It's a straightforward linear path." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Webhook wait set' that begins with a Webhook node, is followed by a Wait node configured to pause for 2 seconds, and then connects to a Set node.

The request is to create a workflow named \"Webhook wait set\" that starts with a Webhook, then waits for 2 seconds, and finally connects to a Set node. Crucially, it needs to be inactive.\n\nFirst things first, I'd start by creating a new workflow and immediately give it the specified name: \"Webhook wait set\". This helps keep things organized from the get-go. Then, right away, before I even start adding nodes, I'd switch the workflow's active status to `inactive`. The prompt specifically asks for it to be inactive, which is a good practice when you're still building or testing, preventing accidental executions.\n\nNow, onto the nodes. The prompt clearly states where we need to begin.\n\nThe workflow \"begins with a Webhook node\". So, my very first step is to drag and drop a Webhook node onto the canvas. This is the perfect choice for a workflow that needs to be triggered by an external HTTP request. It acts as an entry point, listening for incoming data. Looking at the JSON, it's of `type: n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is the standard webhook node in n8n. In terms of its configuration, the JSON shows a `path` parameter. This `path` is a unique identifier for the webhook URL. I wouldn't manually set this; n8n automatically generates a unique ID, like `23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201` in the provided JSON, to ensure the URL is unique. The `options` parameter is empty, meaning no special response modes or other advanced settings are configured for this webhook, which is perfectly fine for a simple trigger.\n\nNext, the prompt says the Webhook node \"is followed by a Wait node configured to pause for 2 seconds\". So, from the output of the Webhook node, I need to connect it to a Wait node. I'd drag a Wait node onto the canvas. The Wait node is precisely what we need when we want to introduce a deliberate delay in the workflow's execution. This can be useful for various reasons, like giving an external system time to process a previous step, or simply for rate limiting. According to the JSON, this node is `type: n8n-nodes-base.wait` and `typeVersion: 1`. Once I have it on the canvas, I need to configure it for the 2-second pause. The JSON tells me to set `amount: 2` and `unit: \"seconds\"`. So, I'd go into the node's settings and specify \"2\" for the amount and select \"seconds\" from the unit dropdown. This ensures the workflow execution will literally pause at this point for precisely two seconds before moving on.\n\nFinally, the prompt states it \"then connects to a Set node\". So, from the output of the Wait node, I'll draw a connection to a new Set node. The Set node is a versatile node often used to manipulate the data flowing through the workflow. It allows you to add new fields, modify existing ones, or even remove them. In this specific case, the JSON shows its `parameters.options` as empty, meaning it's not actually adding or changing any data fields. It's simply serving as the final node in this particular sequence as requested. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 1`. While this setup might seem like it's not doing much, it fulfills the exact requirement of the prompt. In a real scenario, after the wait, I might use this Set node to add a timestamp indicating when the wait completed, or a status message. But for this specific design, an empty Set node is sufficient.\n\nAnd that completes the structure of the workflow based on the prompt and the provided JSON. We have the entry point, the specified delay, and the final processing node, all correctly connected and set to inactive." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"Test workflow 1\" that manually triggers a Code node.

The request is pretty clear: a workflow named \"Test workflow 1\" that manually triggers a Code node to process items, adding a specific field, and it needs to be inactive with a couple of tags.\n\nOkay, so first things first, the overall workflow structure. The prompt specifies the name \"Test workflow 1\", so I'll set that right away. Also, it needs to be `inactive`, which is a key setting for the workflow itself, not individual nodes. And those tags, \"some-tag-1\" and \"some-tag-2\", those are also workflow-level settings that I'll apply once the core structure is in place.\n\nNow, let's think about the actual flow of data and operations. The prompt says \"manually triggers\". That's a very specific instruction for the starting point of our workflow.\n\nSo, the very first node I need is a trigger that allows for manual execution. Looking at the available nodes, the \"Manual Trigger\" node is perfect for this. It's designed exactly for scenarios where you want to kick off a workflow with a click, rather than on a schedule or in response to an external event.\n\nI'll add the \"Manual Trigger\" node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. For a simple trigger like this, `typeVersion 1` is quite stable and doesn't usually see significant behavioral changes across versions. It essentially just provides an empty item to start the workflow when manually executed. I'll name it \"On clicking 'execute'\" as per the provided JSON, which is a good descriptive name for a manual trigger. It doesn't require any specific parameters; it just acts as a starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt states that this manual trigger should connect to a \"Code node\". This \"Code\" node is where the main logic happens. The requirement is to \"iterate input items, adding `myNewField: 1` to each item's JSON before returning them all.\" This immediately tells me I'll need a node that allows custom JavaScript execution.\n\nThe \"Code\" node is precisely what we need here. It gives us the flexibility to write arbitrary JavaScript to manipulate data. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.code`, and again, the `typeVersion` is `1`. This type of node is very stable in its core functionality: running provided JavaScript.\n\nI'll connect the \"Manual Trigger\" node to this \"Code\" node. The \"Manual Trigger\" will output its data (an empty item in this case, by default) to the \"Code\" node's input. The connection will be from the \"main\" output of \"On clicking 'execute'\" to the \"main\" input of \"Code\".\n\nNow, let's configure the \"Code\" node itself. This is where the core logic lives. Inside the `parameters` section for this node, there's a `jsCode` field. This is where I'll put the JavaScript that performs the required data manipulation.\n\nThe prompt requires iterating over *all* input items. So, the JavaScript should use `$input.all()`. Then, for each of these items, I need to add `myNewField: 1` to its `json` property. And finally, all modified items need to be returned.\n\nSo, the code will look like this:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nThis loop ensures that no matter how many items come into the Code node (even if it's just one empty item from the manual trigger, or many from a previous node), each one gets the `myNewField: 1` added. The `return $input.all();` ensures that all the modified items are passed on as output from this Code node.\n\nLooking at the provided JSON, the `connections` section confirms what I've just described: `On clicking 'execute'` (output `main`) is connected to `Code` (input `main`, index `0`). The `Code` node's output is not connected to anything further, which is perfectly valid if it's the last step in the process or if its output is only for inspection during execution.\n\nFinally, just double-checking the workflow-level settings: the `active` flag is set to `false`, which matches the requirement that the workflow should be inactive. And the `tags` array contains two objects for \"some-tag-1\" and \"some-tag-2\". These are typically managed through the n8n UI, allowing for organization and filtering of workflows. They don't affect the workflow's execution logic but are important metadata.\n\nThat seems to cover all aspects of the request and matches the provided JSON structure. The workflow is named, manually triggered, processes items as specified using a Code node, and has the correct activity status and tags." } { "prompt": "Manually export all WordPress posts to a CSV file named 'data.csv'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\", \"returnAll\": true}, \"name\": \"Wordpress\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wordpress\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [430, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"toFile\", \"fileFormat\": \"csv\"}, \"name\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [590, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"data.csv\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [740, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Wordpress\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Spreadsheet File\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wordpress\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's think through building this workflow from scratch, step by step, based on the requirements.\n\nSo, the user wants to \"Manually export all WordPress posts to a CSV file named 'data.csv'.\"\n\nThe very first thing we need is a way to kick off this process. Since the prompt specifies \"Manually export,\" that tells me we'll need a trigger that can be activated on demand.\n\n* **Node 1: `On clicking 'execute'`**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n * **TypeVersion:** `1`\n * **Reasoning:** This is the perfect starting point for any workflow that needs to be initiated by a user. It doesn't require any complex setup; you just click \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n interface, and it sends a signal to start the rest of the nodes. It's simple, direct, and exactly what \"manually export\" implies. We don't need any special parameters here; its default behavior is exactly what we want.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next logical step is to get the actual data. The prompt clearly states \"all WordPress posts.\" So, we need a node that can communicate with a WordPress instance.\n\n* **Node 2: `Wordpress`**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.wordpress`\n * **TypeVersion:** `1`\n * **Reasoning:** This is the dedicated node for interacting with WordPress. It's designed to fetch, create, update, or delete content. Given we need \"posts,\" this is the most straightforward choice.\n * **Connection:** This node will directly connect from our `On clicking 'execute'` trigger. The trigger will just pass a single empty item, signaling the WordPress node to start its operation.\n * **Configuration:**\n * `operation: \"getAll\"`: The prompt says \"export *all* WordPress posts,\" so the `getAll` operation is exactly what we need to retrieve multiple posts.\n * `returnAll: true`: This is crucial! If we don't set this to `true`, the WordPress node might only return a limited number of posts (e.g., 10 or 100, depending on its default paging). To ensure *all* posts are fetched, we must enable this option, which will handle pagination automatically.\n * `credentials`: Naturally, WordPress API credentials would be configured here. This is how n8n securely authenticates with your specific WordPress site to access its data.\n\nAlright, so far, we trigger the workflow, and then we get all the WordPress posts. These posts will come out of the WordPress node as a series of JSON objects, one for each post. The user, however, wants a \"CSV file.\" This means we need to transform that JSON data into a CSV format.\n\n* **Node 3: `Spreadsheet File`**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile`\n * **TypeVersion:** `1`\n * **Reasoning:** This node is perfect for handling conversions between structured data (like the JSON items we're getting from WordPress) and various spreadsheet formats, including CSV. It can take input data, map it to columns, and prepare it for file export.\n * **Connection:** This node will take the output from the `Wordpress` node. Each JSON item representing a post will be processed by this node.\n * **Configuration:**\n * `operation: \"toFile\"`: We're taking data and preparing it *to be written* as a file. This operation is designed for that purpose.\n * `fileFormat: \"csv\"`: This directly matches the user's requirement. We want the output to be in Comma Separated Values format. The node will automatically infer the column headers from the keys in the JSON objects it receives from the WordPress node.\n\nFinally, we have the data in a CSV format, but it's currently just a binary representation of the CSV *data* within n8n. The user wants a \"CSV *file* named 'data.csv'.\" This implies writing that binary data to a physical file.\n\n* **Node 4: `Write Binary File`**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile`\n * **TypeVersion:** `1`\n * **Reasoning:** This is the go-to node for taking binary data (which is what the `Spreadsheet File` node outputs when configured for `toFile` operation) and saving it as a file on the n8n host machine or a connected file system.\n * **Connection:** This node will receive the binary data output from the `Spreadsheet File` node.\n * **Configuration:**\n * `fileName: \"data.csv\"`: The prompt explicitly states the file should be named \"data.csv,\" so we configure this parameter directly. This tells the node exactly what to name the file it creates.\n\nAnd that completes the thought process for building this workflow step by step, ensuring each node contributes directly to fulfilling the user's request." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that generates mock data (id, name) and then combines all items into a single array under a `data_object` key.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"return [\\n {\\n json: {\\n id: 1,\\n name: \\\"Jim\\\"\\n }\\n },\\n {\\n json: {\\n id: 2,\\n name: \\\"Stefan\\\"\\n }\\n },\\n {\\n json: {\\n id: 3,\\n name: \\\"Hans\\\"\\n }\\n }\\n];\"}, \"name\": \"Mock Data\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.function\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [802, 307]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"return [\\n {\\n json: {\\n data_object: items.map(item => item.json),\\n },\\n }\\n];\\n\"}, \"name\": \"Create an array of objects\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.function\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1052, 307]}], \"connections\": {\"Mock Data\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Create an array of objects\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get started on building this n8n workflow. The goal is pretty clear: generate some mock data with an `id` and `name`, and then take all those individual pieces of data and combine them into a single array under a `data_object` key.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to *create* the mock data. What's the best tool for that in n8n? I could use a `Set` node, but that's more for setting static values on existing items, or creating a single new item. If I want to generate *multiple* distinct items with custom content, especially if I want to define their structure directly in code, a `Function` node is usually my go-to. It gives me a JavaScript environment where I can craft exactly the output I need.\n\nSo, I'll start by adding a `Function` node. I'll call this node \"Mock Data\" because that's its primary purpose.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.function`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nInside this \"Mock Data\" node, I need to define the `functionCode`. Since I want to output multiple items, my function should return an array of n8n items. Each item needs a `json` property containing the `id` and `name`. I'll hardcode a few examples for simplicity, as per the request for mock data.\n\n```javascript\nreturn [\n {\n json: {\n id: 1,\n name: \"Jim\"\n }\n },\n {\n json: {\n id: 2,\n name: \"Stefan\"\n }\n },\n {\n json: {\n id: 3,\n name: \"Hans\"\n }\n }\n];\n```\n\nThis looks good. When this node runs, it will output three separate items, each structured correctly with an `id` and `name` under their `json` property.\n\nNow that I have these individual mock data items, the next step is to combine them all into a *single* item, specifically an array under a `data_object` key. How do I take multiple incoming items and transform them into one item with a specific structure?\n\nAgain, a `Function` node is incredibly powerful for this kind of data manipulation. It gives me access to the `items` variable, which is an array of all the incoming n8n items from the previous node. This is exactly what I need to process them all together.\n\nSo, I'll add another `Function` node, and I'll call this one \"Create an array of objects\" to reflect its purpose.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.function`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nBefore I configure its `functionCode`, I need to make sure it receives all the data from the \"Mock Data\" node. I'll draw a \"main\" connection from the \"Mock Data\" node to this new \"Create an array of objects\" node. This ensures that all three items generated by the first node are passed as input to the second.\n\nNow, for the `functionCode` in \"Create an array of objects\". I need to produce a *single* output item. This single item should have a `json` property, and within that, a `data_object` key. The value of `data_object` should be an array containing just the `id` and `name` parts from all the *original* items.\n\nI can achieve this by iterating over the `items` array that's passed into this function. Each `item` in `items` has a `json` property, which holds our `id` and `name`. I can use the `map` function to extract just that `json` part from each item.\n\n```javascript\nreturn [\n {\n json: {\n data_object: items.map(item => item.json),\n },\n }\n];\n```\n\nLet's break this down:\n* `items.map(item => item.json)`: This iterates through every `item` that came from the previous node. For each `item`, it pulls out its `json` property (e.g., `{ id: 1, name: \"Jim\" }`). The result of this `map` operation will be an array like `[{ id: 1, name: \"Jim\" }, { id: 2, name: \"Stefan\" }, { id: 3, name: \"Hans\" }]`.\n* `data_object: ...`: This assigns the array we just created to a key named `data_object`.\n* `json: { data_object: ... }`: This wraps our `data_object` into the standard `json` property of an n8n item.\n* `return [ { json: { ... } } ]`: Finally, the entire structure is wrapped in an array, because a `Function` node always returns an array of items, even if it's just one item. This ensures the output is a single n8n item, containing our desired structure.\n\nThis seems to perfectly match the requirement. The \"Mock Data\" node generates the initial items, and the \"Create an array of objects\" node consolidates them into the final desired single item structure using a `Function` node's power to access all incoming items. No other nodes seem necessary here; the `Function` node handles both the initial creation and the complex aggregation elegantly." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n Gitlab Trigger node that monitors all events on the `n8n-io\/n8n-docs` repository, positioned at [460, 480], and authenticated with `gitlab_creds`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"owner\": \"n8n-io\", \"events\": [\"*\"], \"repository\": \"n8n-docs\"}, \"name\": \"Gitlab Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gitlabTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 480]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so the goal here is pretty clear-cut: we need to set up an n8n workflow that starts whenever a specific event happens on a GitLab repository. The request explicitly asks for a `Gitlab Trigger` node. That immediately tells me where to begin.\n\nFirst things first, for a workflow that needs to react to external events, we absolutely need a trigger node. Looking at the n8n nodes library, the `Gitlab Trigger` node (specifically, `n8n-nodes-base.gitlabTrigger`) is the perfect fit. It's designed exactly for this purpose: listening for events from a GitLab instance. This will be our workflow's entry point, so it'll be the very first node we place.\n\nThe JSON tells me this node is of `typeVersion: 1`. This is important because node versions can sometimes have different parameters or behaviors, but for this common trigger, version 1 is standard and well-understood.\n\nNow, let's think about configuring this trigger. The prompt specifies where it should be positioned on the canvas: `[460, 480]`. That's straightforward; it's just a visual placement for organization within the workflow editor.\n\nNext, the core functionality: it needs to monitor events on the `n8n-io\/n8n-docs` repository. This is where the node's `parameters` come into play. We'll set the `owner` parameter to `n8n-io` to target the correct GitLab user or group, and the `repository` parameter to `n8n-docs` to specify the exact project we're interested in. This ensures the trigger only pays attention to events from that specific source.\n\nThe prompt also states \"monitors all events.\" This means we don't want to filter by push events or issue events only; we want everything. So, within the `parameters`, the `events` field should be configured with a wildcard, `[\"*\"]`. This tells the GitLab trigger to react to *any* webhook event that GitLab sends for that repository \u2013 whether it's a push, a merge request, an issue, and so on. This makes it very comprehensive.\n\nThen there's the authentication part: \"authenticated with `gitlab_creds`.\" This is handled in the `credentials` block of the node. We'll set the `gitlabApi` property to point to the `gitlab_creds` credential. This `gitlab_creds` would be a pre-configured credential in n8n that holds the necessary API token or authentication details to securely connect to GitLab and register the webhook. Without this, the trigger wouldn't be able to communicate with GitLab or receive any events.\n\nI also see a `webhookId` in the provided JSON. This is an identifier that n8n automatically generates and assigns to the webhook it creates in GitLab when this workflow is activated. It's not something I'd manually configure when designing; it's part of the node's state once it's up and running and has successfully registered itself with GitLab.\n\nFinally, since this is just a single trigger node \u2013 the start of a potential workflow \u2013 there are no `connections` to other nodes. This makes sense because it's only waiting for an external event; any subsequent actions would branch out *from* this node, but we're not designing those downstream steps right now. This workflow is essentially just the listener." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers when a new worker is created in Onfleet and sends a Slack message \"A new driver has signed up!\" to the '#new-driver-signup' channel.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerOn\": \"workerCreated\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Onfleet Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.onfleetTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"A new driver has signed up!\", \"channel\": \"#new-driver-signup\", \"attachments\": [], \"otherOptions\": {}}, \"name\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.slack\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Onfleet Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so I'm looking at this request to build an n8n workflow. The user wants a workflow that kicks off when a new worker is created in Onfleet, and then it needs to send a specific message to a Slack channel. My goal is to design this from the ground up, making sure each piece fits together logically.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to detect that \"new worker created\" event in Onfleet. Looking at the n8n nodes, an Onfleet trigger node seems like the most direct and appropriate choice. It's designed specifically for reacting to events within Onfleet.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding an **Onfleet Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.onfleetTrigger`, and for this design, I'll use `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfectly suited because the user's prompt explicitly states the trigger condition: \"when a new worker is created in Onfleet\".\n\nOnce I've placed the Onfleet Trigger node, I'll need to configure it. The most crucial parameter here is `triggerOn`. I'd set this to `workerCreated` to match the requirement precisely. This tells the node to listen specifically for the event of a new worker being added to Onfleet. There are also fields like `webhookId` and `additionalFields`, which would typically be automatically generated or left as default for a simple trigger like this, but if there were specific data I needed to pass or filter, I might look at `additionalFields`. For credentials, this node will obviously need an Onfleet API key configured to allow n8n to connect and receive webhook events from Onfleet. That would be handled through a credential setup, which is referenced here as `onfleetApi`.\n\nAlright, so the trigger is in place. Now, what happens *after* a new worker is created? The user wants a Slack message to be sent. This immediately tells me I'll need a Slack node.\n\nSo, I'd then add a **Slack** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.slack`, and again, `typeVersion: 1` is what I'm working with here. This node is the standard way to interact with Slack in n8n, whether it's sending messages, creating channels, or other operations. For this task, sending a simple message, it's the ideal choice.\n\nNow, I need to connect these two nodes. The Onfleet Trigger will output data when it fires, and that output should then directly flow into the Slack node to initiate the message sending. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the \"Onfleet Trigger\" node to the `main` input of the \"Slack\" node. This ensures that as soon as Onfleet tells n8n a new worker is created, the workflow immediately proceeds to send the Slack message. There's no intermediate data manipulation or filtering needed here, so a direct connection is perfect.\n\nNext, I'll configure the Slack node. The prompt specifies two things for the Slack message: the content and the channel.\nFor the message content, I'll set the `text` parameter to `\"A new driver has signed up!\"`. This is exactly what the user asked for.\nFor the destination channel, I'll set the `channel` parameter to `\"#new-driver-signup\"`. Again, this directly fulfills the requirement.\nThe Slack node also has parameters for `attachments` and `otherOptions`, but for this simple message, they aren't needed, so I'd leave them as their defaults or empty as indicated in the JSON. Just like the Onfleet node, this Slack node will require credentials, specifically a Slack API account, which would be set up separately and referenced here as `slackApi`. This allows n8n to authenticate and send messages to the specified Slack workspace.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it for this workflow. The Onfleet Trigger listens, and when it catches the event, it hands off to the Slack node, which sends the message. Simple and effective for the stated goal." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers whenever a new activity is created on Strava. This workflow should then update your Beeminder goal named 'testing', setting the comment to the name of the Strava activity.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"event\": \"create\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Strava Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.stravaTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [470, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"goalName\": \"testing\", \"additionalFields\": {\"comment\": \"={{$json[\\\"object_data\\\"][\\\"name\\\"]}}\"}}, \"name\": \"Beeminder\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.beeminder\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [670, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Strava Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Beeminder\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's think through building this workflow step by step, imagining I'm at the n8n editor, staring at a blank canvas.\n\nThe user prompt is pretty clear: \"Create an n8n workflow that triggers whenever a new activity is created on Strava. This workflow should then update your Beeminder goal named 'testing', setting the comment to the name of the Strava activity.\"\n\nSo, the very first thing that jumps out is the \"triggers whenever a new activity is created on Strava\" part. That immediately tells me I need a starting point, a trigger node. Looking at the available nodes, a \"Strava Trigger\" node seems like the perfect fit. It's specifically designed to listen for events from Strava.\n\nSo, I'd drag the `n8n-nodes-base.stravaTrigger` node onto the canvas. Its `typeVersion` is 1, which is good; it means I'm using a standard, well-defined version of the node.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Strava trigger? The prompt says \"whenever a new activity is created.\" So, I'd open the node's settings, and in its `parameters`, I'd look for an `event` field. I'd expect options like \"create,\" \"update,\" \"delete,\" etc., for different Strava objects. To match the requirement, I'd set the `event` to `create`. That's critical because it ensures the workflow only fires when something *new* happens, not just when an existing activity is changed.\n\nThere's also a `webhookId` parameter. I wouldn't set that myself; that's an internal identifier n8n generates to manage the webhook subscription with Strava. It's what Strava will use to send the data back to *this specific* n8n workflow.\n\nFinally, for the Strava Trigger node to actually connect to my Strava account, it needs credentials. So, I'd configure the `credentials` field, pointing it to my pre-existing Strava OAuth2 API credentials. This allows n8n to authenticate with Strava and set up the webhook.\n\nAlright, so the trigger is set up. Now, what's the next step? The prompt says: \"This workflow should then update your Beeminder goal named 'testing', setting the comment to the name of the Strava activity.\"\n\nThis clearly indicates I need to interact with Beeminder. So, I'd search for a \"Beeminder\" node, and sure enough, `n8n-nodes-base.beeminder` is available. I'd drag that onto the canvas. Its `typeVersion` is also 1.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The Beeminder node needs to act *after* the Strava Trigger fires and receives data. So, I'd draw a connection from the \"main\" output of the \"Strava Trigger\" node to the \"main\" input of the \"Beeminder\" node. This ensures that when Strava sends data to the trigger, that data payload is then passed directly as input to the Beeminder node for processing.\n\nLet's configure the Beeminder node. The prompt specifies \"update your Beeminder goal named 'testing'\". So, I'd look for a `goalName` parameter in the Beeminder node's settings, and I'd input `testing` directly into that field. This tells the Beeminder node exactly which goal to target.\n\nThe crucial part is \"setting the comment to the name of the Strava activity.\" This means I need to extract the activity name from the data provided by the Strava Trigger and use it for the `comment` field in the Beeminder update.\n\nI know that data from previous nodes is available using expressions. When the Strava Trigger fires, it'll receive a JSON payload from Strava. I'd expect this payload to contain details about the new activity. Based on common webhook structures, the activity's details are often nested under a key like `object_data` or `data`, and the name would then be accessible via `name`. So, an expression like `{{$json[\"object_data\"][\"name\"]}}` looks like the correct way to pull that specific piece of information from the incoming JSON data. I'd place this expression into the `comment` field within the `additionalFields` section of the Beeminder node. This is a common pattern: `additionalFields` is often where you'd put extra data points not covered by the main parameters of an action.\n\nFinally, just like the Strava Trigger, the Beeminder node needs to authenticate with my Beeminder account. So, I'd configure its `credentials` field, linking it to my Beeminder API credentials. This gives n8n the authorization to make changes to my Beeminder goals.\n\nAnd that's it! The Strava Trigger listens for new activity creations, passes the data, and the Beeminder node then uses that data, specifically the activity name, to update the 'testing' goal's comment. The flow seems complete and covers all requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow containing a single Webhook node, configured with the path `FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`. Include `pinData` to simulate a test execution, showing a basic incoming request with no query parameters or body.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [360, 220]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think this through from the ground up, as if I'm designing this workflow from scratch.\n\nMy primary goal here is to create a workflow that can receive an external request. The prompt specifically mentions a \"single Webhook node.\" This immediately tells me which node type I need to start with \u2013 it's the entry point for external communication.\n\nSo, the very first thing I'd do is drag and drop a **Webhook node** onto the canvas. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and its `typeVersion` is `2`. This is a foundational node in n8n, perfect for listening for incoming HTTP requests. Version 2 likely offers some updated features or internal improvements over older versions, but for a basic setup like this, its core functionality of being an HTTP endpoint remains consistent.\n\nOnce I have the Webhook node, I need to configure it. The prompt specifies a very particular path: `FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`. This is crucial because it defines the unique URL that external systems will call to trigger this workflow. So, I'd go into the Webhook node's settings and set the 'Path' field to `FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`. This makes sure our webhook responds only to requests hitting this specific endpoint.\n\nThe JSON also shows an empty `options` object for the Webhook node. For a simple incoming request, the default options (like listening for any HTTP method, or immediately responding) are usually fine. If I needed to restrict it to, say, only POST requests, or return a specific HTTP status code, I'd configure those in the 'Options' section, but for this basic scenario, the defaults are perfectly adequate, hence the empty `options`.\n\nThe other properties like `id`, `name`, `position`, and `webhookId` are internal to n8n for managing the node on the canvas and uniquely identifying its instances. The `name` is simply \"Webhook,\" which is descriptive enough for a single-node workflow. The `position` dictates where it appears visually, which is minor for functionality but helps with organization in larger workflows.\n\nNow, for the really interesting part: the `pinData`. The prompt asks to \"include `pinData` to simulate a test execution, showing a basic incoming request with no query parameters or body.\" This is incredibly useful for testing a workflow without actually needing to send a real HTTP request from an external tool. It's like telling n8n, \"Hey, imagine a request came in looking exactly like this.\"\n\nTo achieve this, I'd populate the `pinData` object specifically for my \"Webhook\" node. Inside it, I'm setting up an array, because a webhook could potentially receive multiple requests in a batch (though here it's just one simulated request).\n\nFor this single simulated request, I need to define what the incoming request *would* look like:\n* **`headers`**: I'd include common HTTP headers you'd expect from a typical client, like `connection`, `user-agent`, `accept`, `host`, and `accept-encoding`. The presence of a `cookie` header, for instance, just shows that some clients might send session or authentication information, which is common in web requests, but I'd never put any actual sensitive cookie data here myself. These headers give context to the simulated request.\n* **`params`**: The prompt explicitly says \"no query parameters or body.\" `params` typically refer to route parameters (like `\/users\/{userId}`), and since my path is fixed, this would naturally be empty.\n* **`query`**: Again, \"no query parameters\" means this should be an empty object `{}`. This simulates a URL like `http:\/\/example.com\/webhook-path` rather than `http:\/\/example.com\/webhook-path?key=value`.\n* **`body`**: And once more, \"no body\" means this must be an empty object `{}`. This means the simulated request isn't sending any JSON, form data, or raw text in its body.\n* **`webhookUrl`**: This field helps to clarify what the full URL of the triggered webhook would have been. It's a handy piece of information in the simulated data.\n* **`executionMode`**: Setting this to `test` is important. It explicitly tells n8n that this is a simulated execution for testing purposes, not a live one.\n\nSince this is a single-node workflow that's an entry point, there are no `connections` to worry about. The `connections` object in the JSON is empty, which is exactly what I'd expect. The workflow just starts and finishes with the Webhook node receiving its simulated data.\n\nAnd that's it. This setup perfectly fulfills the requirement: a single Webhook node, configured with the specified path, and `pinData` that accurately simulates a basic incoming request with no query parameters or body. It's ready to test without needing an external trigger." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that is manually triggered.

Thinking about how to build this, the very first thing I need to figure out is what's going to kick off this whole process. The prompt clearly states it needs to be \"manually triggered.\"\n\nSo, for that, my go-to is always the `manualTrigger` node. It's purpose-built for scenarios where you, the user, decide exactly when the workflow runs, typically by clicking an \"Execute\" button in the n8n interface.\n\n1. **Node: Manual Trigger**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n * **TypeVersion:** 1\n * **Reasoning:** This is the ideal starting point because it fulfills the requirement of being manually triggered. There are no external events or schedules involved here; it's all about user control.\n * **Configuration:** Looking at the JSON, this node is named \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is very descriptive. Its `parameters` are empty (`{}`), which is exactly what I'd expect. A manual trigger node doesn't need any complex setup; its function is simply to initiate the workflow when activated. I don't foresee any different behavior if a different `typeVersion` were used for such a fundamental trigger node, as its core function remains consistent.\n\nOkay, so we have our starting point. What's next? The prompt tells me the workflow needs to \"read the binary file located at `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv`.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can access the local file system and pull in file content.\n\n2. **Node: Read Binary File**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile`\n * **TypeVersion:** 1\n * **Reasoning:** To read a file from the server's local storage, the `readBinaryFile` node is precisely what's required. It's designed specifically for this purpose, handling the low-level details of file access.\n * **Connection:** This node needs to run *after* the workflow is triggered. So, I'd connect the `main` output of my \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the `main` input of this new \"Read Binary File\" node. This creates a sequential flow, ensuring the file is only read once the workflow has started.\n * **Configuration:** The most critical part here is telling it *which* file to read. The prompt specifies `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv`. So, within its `parameters`, I'd set the `filePath` property to this exact path: `{\"filePath\": \"\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv\"}`. This is how the node knows where to find the data. The node will then output the content of this file as binary data, ready for the next step. Again, `typeVersion: 1` is standard, and I'd expect consistent behavior regarding file reading.\n\nNow that we've read the file, what do we do with its content? The prompt says \"pass this file content to a Spreadsheet File node for processing.\" This is the final processing step.\n\n3. **Node: Spreadsheet File**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile`\n * **TypeVersion:** 1\n * **Reasoning:** The prompt explicitly calls for this node, and it's perfect for handling spreadsheet-like data, including CSV files (which `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv` implies). This node can parse the binary content it receives and convert it into structured JSON data that subsequent n8n nodes can easily work with.\n * **Connection:** This \"Spreadsheet File\" node needs to receive the binary output from the \"Read Binary File\" node. Therefore, I'd connect the `main` output of the \"Read Binary File\" node to the `main` input of the \"Spreadsheet File\" node. This is where the actual file data, read in the previous step, is passed along for processing.\n * **Configuration:** Its name is \"Spreadsheet File\". Looking at the JSON, its `parameters` simply contain `{\"options\": {}}`. This means no specific parsing options (like a specific sheet name, column headers, or delimiter) are explicitly configured here. The node will likely rely on its default behavior to auto-detect the file type (e.g., CSV) and parse it accordingly. If the CSV had a non-standard delimiter or specific rows to skip, I'd configure those in the `options` object, but for this workflow, the defaults are implied. As with the previous nodes, `typeVersion: 1` is the current standard, and its core functionality for parsing spreadsheets isn't expected to change drastically between minor versions.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the requirements and the provided JSON. We have a clear flow from manual trigger, to reading the specific file, to processing its content as a spreadsheet." } { "prompt": "Generate an Airtable node.

The user's request is quite specific: they want an Airtable node, and the key is how its `application` (which refers to the base) and `table` parameters are configured. They need to use URL mode and extract IDs via regex.\n\nSo, the very first thing I'll need to do is add an Airtable node to the canvas. This is the core component that allows interaction with Airtable.\n\n1. **Adding the Airtable Node:**\n * I'd select the `n8n-nodes-base.airtable` node type. This is the standard, built-in node for connecting to Airtable.\n * The `typeVersion` is specified as `1` in the JSON, which is typically the initial or a stable version for this node. It's important to keep track of the version, as later versions might introduce new features or change parameter names, but for now, `1` is what we're working with.\n * I'll give it the default name \"Airtable\" as seen in the JSON. The `position` is `[380, 180]`, which is simply where it would appear on the visual canvas.\n\n2. **Configuring the 'application' (Base) Parameter:**\n * The prompt clearly states that the `application` parameter should use \"URL mode.\" Looking at the JSON, I can see `mode: \"url\"` within the `application` object, so that's exactly how I'll set it up. This means instead of selecting a base from a dropdown (if credentials were provided), the node will expect a URL from which to derive the base ID.\n * Next, it says \"extracting their respective IDs from the URL path via regex patterns.\" This is crucial. For the `application` parameter, the JSON provides the regex: `\"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`.\n * This regex is designed to extract the Airtable base ID. It looks for the standard `https:\/\/airtable.com\/` prefix, and then the `([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})` part is the capturing group. This group captures any alphanumeric characters that are at least two characters long, which perfectly matches how Airtable base IDs are structured (e.g., 'appxxxxxxxxxxxx').\n * The `__rl: true` property indicates that this field is configured for \"URL Resolver\" mode, which means the node will take a URL, apply the provided regex, and use the captured group as the actual parameter value.\n * The `value: \"\"` indicates that no default URL is provided. This is because the node is expected to receive a URL at runtime (perhaps from a preceding node or a trigger) and then use the regex to extract the necessary ID.\n\n3. **Configuring the 'table' Parameter:**\n * Similar to the `application` parameter, the `table` parameter also needs to be in \"URL mode.\" The JSON shows `mode: \"url\"`, so I'll configure it that way.\n * For the regex pattern, the JSON has `\"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`.\n * This regex is a bit more specific. It still starts with `https:\/\/airtable.com\/`. Then, it expects a base ID (`[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}`), followed by a forward slash `\/`, and *then* the capturing group `([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})` which will extract the table ID. This pattern is essential because Airtable table IDs appear after the base ID in the URL path (e.g., `https:\/\/airtable.com\/appXXXXXXXXXXXX\/tblYYYYYYYYYY`).\n * Again, `__rl: true` confirms the URL Resolver mode for this field.\n * And `value: \"\"` indicates no pre-filled URL. The table ID will also be extracted dynamically from an incoming URL.\n\n4. **Connections:**\n * The `connections` object in the JSON is empty. This means the Airtable node stands alone in this workflow snippet. It's common for a single-node workflow, or one where the trigger might implicitly feed data to it (like a Webhook node that's not shown here, or if it's manually executed and the URL is provided in the test input). Since the prompt only asked to generate and configure *this specific node*, there's no need for any connections.\n\nThis setup perfectly matches the requirements: an Airtable node, with its base and table parameters dynamically extracted from a URL using specific regex patterns. This makes the node very flexible, as it can operate on different Airtable bases and tables simply by being given the appropriate URL." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow triggered by two separate webhooks.

The user prompt is quite clear: we need two separate webhooks to trigger the workflow, both leading into a Hacker News node to fetch a specific article, and then finally into an \"Edit Fields\" (Set) node.\n\nSo, the first thing that comes to mind is how to kick this whole process off. Since the requirement specifically states \"triggered by two separate webhooks,\" naturally, I'd begin by adding those.\n\nLooking at the JSON, I see two webhook nodes. Let's pick one to start with. I'll go with the one named \"Webhook\".\n\nThis node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and it's `typeVersion 2`. This is perfect for listening for incoming HTTP requests, which is exactly what a webhook does. It allows external services or custom scripts to send data to our workflow and initiate its execution. For its configuration, I see it has a `path` parameter set to a specific ID, which defines the unique endpoint URL where n8n will listen for requests. It also has a `webhookId`, which is essentially a unique identifier for this particular webhook instance within n8n. These are crucial for n8n to know which workflow to trigger when a request hits a specific URL. I wouldn't set any other specific options for now, as the prompt doesn't specify any unique headers or authentication methods for the initial trigger.\n\nNow, we need a second trigger. The prompt clearly states \"two separate webhooks.\" So, I'll add another webhook node. The JSON also shows another webhook, named \"Webhook1\", which is also of type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion 2`. This works exactly the same as the first one, but it will have its own distinct `path` and `webhookId` to ensure it's a completely separate trigger endpoint. This is important because it means either webhook can independently kick off the subsequent steps of the workflow.\n\nAlright, so we have our two entry points. What's next? Both webhooks, according to the prompt, \"should connect to a Hacker News node configured to retrieve article ID '123'.\"\n\nSo, the next logical step is to add that Hacker News node. I see a node in the JSON with the name \"Hacker News\", of type `n8n-nodes-base.hackerNews` and `typeVersion 1`. This node is designed specifically for interacting with the Hacker News API, which is exactly what we need.\n\nNow, how do we connect the webhooks to it? Looking at the `connections` section, it confirms my thought: both \"Webhook\" and \"Webhook1\" connect their `main` output to the `main` input of the \"Hacker News\" node. This means that whenever either of the webhooks receives a request, it will pass an execution to the Hacker News node. This is a common pattern for \"OR\" logic in n8n \u2013 if A happens OR B happens, then C executes.\n\nFor the Hacker News node's configuration, the prompt specifies \"configured to retrieve article ID '123'\". Checking the JSON for this node, I see it has `articleId` set to `\"123\"`. This is perfect. It means the node will query the Hacker News API specifically for the details of article number 123. There are no other `additionalFields` specified, so I'd leave those as default or empty, focusing solely on fetching that specific article.\n\nFinally, the prompt says the output of the Hacker News node should flow \"into an 'Edit Fields' (Set) node.\"\n\nSo, the last node in our sequence would be that \"Edit Fields\" (Set) node. In the JSON, this node is named \"Edit Fields\" and is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, with `typeVersion 3.3`. The \"Set\" node is incredibly versatile. Its primary purpose is to add, modify, or remove fields in the incoming JSON data. This is useful for standardizing data, preparing it for a subsequent node, or simply for debugging and inspecting the data flow.\n\nLooking at the connections, the `main` output of the \"Hacker News\" node correctly connects to the `main` input of this \"Edit Fields\" node. This means that whatever article data the Hacker News node retrieves will be passed directly into the \"Edit Fields\" node.\n\nFor the \"Edit Fields\" node's configuration, I see its `parameters` only contain an empty `options` object. This implies that no specific fields are being added, modified, or removed in this particular workflow. It might be acting as a placeholder, or perhaps it's there to allow for future expansion where specific data manipulation might be needed after retrieving the Hacker News article. For now, it simply receives the data and passes it through, although it technically *could* modify it if configured to do so. Since no specific fields are defined, it will effectively just act as a passthrough for the Hacker News output.\n\nAnd that completes the thought process for building this workflow as described." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, fetches a random cocktail from `thecocktaildb.com` via an HTTP request, converts the JSON response to binary data, and then saves it to a file named `cocktail.json`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [400, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"jsonToBinary\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Move Binary Data\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [550, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"cocktail.json\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [700, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Move Binary Data\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Move Binary Data\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The goal here is to manually trigger an n8n workflow that goes out, grabs a random cocktail recipe, transforms that data, and then saves it to a file. Thinking about this from scratch, I always start with how the workflow is going to kick off.\n\nThe prompt specifically says \"manually triggers,\" so that immediately tells me my first node has to be a trigger that responds to user interaction. Looking at the n8n nodes, the `manualTrigger` node (specifically, `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and `typeVersion: 1`) is perfect for this. It's designed to start a workflow simply by clicking an 'execute' button in the editor or UI. It doesn't need any complex configuration; it just sits there, waiting for that manual impulse to get things going. This will be the very first node in our workflow, positioned nicely at the beginning.\n\nNext, once the workflow is triggered, we need to actually get the data. The prompt mentions fetching a random cocktail from `thecocktaildb.com` via an HTTP request. So, the obvious choice for the next step is an `HTTP Request` node. This is a fundamental node for interacting with external web services. I'll use `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`, `typeVersion: 1`. I'd connect the `manualTrigger`'s 'main' output to the 'main' input of this `HTTP Request` node. That way, as soon as the workflow starts, it immediately tries to fetch the data.\n\nFor the `HTTP Request` node's configuration, the key parameter is the URL. The prompt gives us `https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php`. I'd simply plug that URL into the node's URL field. There aren't any special options mentioned, like headers or authentication, so I'll leave those at their defaults. This node will go out, make the request, and by default, it expects a JSON response, which is exactly what thecocktaildb.com provides. It will then output that JSON data as part of its item data.\n\nNow, this is where it gets interesting because the prompt has a very specific instruction: \"converts the JSON response to binary data.\" An `HTTP Request` node typically outputs data as JSON or a string in its main item. To convert that into a binary format *within* n8n, ready for file saving, I need a specific utility node. The `Move Binary Data` node (`n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData`, `typeVersion: 1`) is ideal for this. It has different modes for handling binary data, and critically, one of them is `jsonToBinary`.\n\nSo, I'd connect the 'main' output of the `HTTP Request` node to the 'main' input of this `Move Binary Data` node. For its parameters, I'd set the `mode` to `jsonToBinary`. What this node will do is take the JSON data it receives from the `HTTP Request` node, serialize it (essentially turning it into a string representation of the JSON), and then attach that string as binary data to the outgoing item. This is crucial because the next step needs binary data.\n\nFinally, the last part of the requirement is to \"save it to a file named `cocktail.json`.\" Since we've just converted our JSON data into binary form using the `Move Binary Data` node, the next logical step is to write that binary data to a file. For this, the `Write Binary File` node (`n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile`, `typeVersion: 1`) is exactly what we need.\n\nI'd connect the 'main' output from the `Move Binary Data` node to the 'main' input of the `Write Binary File` node. This ensures that the binary data we just prepared is passed directly to the file-writing node. For its configuration, the prompt specifies the filename: `cocktail.json`. So, I'd simply input `cocktail.json` into the `fileName` parameter of this node. This node will then take the binary data it receives and save it to a file with that name in the n8n workflow's designated file system location. This completes the entire flow, from trigger to data fetching, transformation, and saving. It feels like a very clean and direct solution to the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with a manual trigger directly connected to a newly added, unconfigured ClickUp node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"list\": \"\", \"name\": \"\", \"team\": \"\", \"space\": \"\", \"folder\": \"\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"ClickUp\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.clickUp\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"ClickUp\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow built from the ground up.\n\nMy starting point is the user prompt: \"Create an n8n workflow with a manual trigger directly connected to a newly added, unconfigured ClickUp node.\" This gives me a clear direction: I need two nodes, a trigger and an action node for ClickUp, and they need to be linked directly.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick off this workflow. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger.\" In n8n, the node that perfectly fits this description is the `manualTrigger` node. It's designed for exactly this purpose \u2013 to start a workflow when a user manually clicks a button. So, I'll drag and drop that onto my canvas. I'll go with its type: `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and based on the provided blueprint, its `typeVersion` will be 1. It makes sense to give it a descriptive name like \"On clicking 'execute'\", so it's clear what its purpose is. For this node, there aren't typically any parameters to configure; its job is simply to generate an item to start the flow when manually activated.\n\nNext, the prompt states it needs to be \"directly connected to a newly added, unconfigured ClickUp node.\" This tells me what my second node should be. I'll bring in a `clickUp` node. Its full type would be `n8n-nodes-base.clickUp`, and again, it will have a `typeVersion` (in this case, 1). I'll name it simply \"ClickUp\". The crucial part here is \"unconfigured.\" When I drop a new ClickUp node, it won't have any specific operation selected (like \"Create Task\" or \"Get Task\"), nor will it have any specific data filled in (like a list ID, task name, or status). Looking at the JSON, this is exactly how it's represented: the `parameters` block for the ClickUp node is full of empty strings for things like `list`, `name`, `team`, `space`, and `folder`, and `additionalFields` is an empty object. This confirms it's in an \"unconfigured\" state, ready for a user to specify what they want it to do within ClickUp. Also, critically, it doesn't have any actual credentials associated yet; the `credentials.clickUpApi` field is empty, which is absolutely what I'd expect for a newly added, unconfigured node. A user would need to set up their ClickUp API key or OAuth connection here to make it functional.\n\nNow for the connection. The prompt says \"directly connected.\" This means the output from my `manualTrigger` node needs to feed straight into the input of my `clickUp` node. I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of \"On clicking 'execute'\" to the `main` input of \"ClickUp.\" This simple connection ensures that whenever the manual trigger is activated, it sends a signal to the ClickUp node, prompting it to execute. Since the ClickUp node is unconfigured, it wouldn't actually *do* anything useful yet without further setup, but the workflow structure itself is complete according to the prompt's requirements. This connection pattern is very common in n8n, simply passing the flow of execution from one node to the next." } { "prompt": "Generate an Airtable node with `application` and `table` parameters.

So, the very first and only node we'll need for this workflow will be an Airtable node.\n\nI'd begin by pulling an **Airtable node**. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.airtable` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the standard node for interacting with Airtable, making it the perfect choice. There aren't really other node types that would directly achieve Airtable integration, so this is a straightforward pick. The `typeVersion: 1` indicates a stable and common version of the node; I wouldn't expect its core parameters to differ drastically in minor versions, but it's good to note the specific version being used.\n\nOnce I have the Airtable node on the canvas, I'd want to position it. The JSON gives us `position: [380, 180]`. This is purely for visual layout on the n8n canvas; it places the node centrally, which is fine for a single-node workflow.\n\nNow, let's dive into the node's parameters, as this is where the main requirements come into play. The prompt specifies `application` and `table` parameters, both accepting URLs with specific regex validations and being runtime configurable.\n\nFirst, let's configure the `application` parameter.\n* The prompt says it needs to accept URLs. In n8n, for many fields, you can switch their input `mode`. The JSON confirms this with `\"mode\": \"url\"`. This is crucial because it tells n8n to expect and treat the input as a URL, which often comes with built-in UI support for URL fields.\n* Next, it needs to be \"runtime configurable.\" This means the user should be able to provide or change this value when the workflow is executed, rather than it being fixed during design time. In n8n, this is typically achieved by setting a field to be \"run-time linked\" or \"runtime configurable.\" The JSON shows `\"__rl\": true` for the `application` field. This property handles exactly that, making the field dynamic at execution time.\n* Finally, the specific regex validation for Airtable base IDs. The JSON includes `\"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. This regex is quite precise. It ensures that any URL entered for the `application` (which represents the Airtable base) must start with `https:\/\/airtable.com\/` and then be followed by at least two alphanumeric characters. This `([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})` part is designed to match a typical Airtable base ID, ensuring the user provides a syntactically correct base URL. An empty `\"value\": \"\"` is also set, which makes sense because it's runtime configurable; we're not providing a default value at design time.\n\nNext, let's move to the `table` parameter, which has similar requirements.\n* Again, it needs to accept URLs. Just like the `application` field, we see `\"mode\": \"url\"` in the JSON. This ensures the field expects a URL as input.\n* It also needs to be \"runtime configurable.\" Consistent with the `application` field, the JSON shows `\"__rl\": true` for the `table` field as well. This guarantees that the table URL can be specified or changed when the workflow runs.\n* And finally, the specific regex validation for Airtable table IDs. The JSON has `\"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. This regex is a bit more complex than the `application` one, and for good reason. It not only expects `https:\/\/airtable.com\/` followed by a base ID (`[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}`) but *then* specifically requires another slash `\/` and *then* the table ID (`([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})`). This ensures that the provided URL is not just any Airtable URL, but specifically one structured like an Airtable table URL, which includes both the base and the table identifier within the path. This provides robust validation for the user's input. Similar to `application`, the `\"value\": \"\"` is empty, as it's meant to be provided at runtime.\n\nSince the user prompt only requested the generation of an Airtable node with these specific parameters, and the provided JSON only contains this single node with no connections (`\"connections\": {}`), my design process stops here. There are no other nodes to add or connections to make based on the requirements. This workflow is designed to be a standalone Airtable operation where the base and table are dynamically chosen at runtime." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, submits 'https:\/\/n8n.io' to Cortex for 'Abuse_Finder_3_0' analysis, and then fetches the results of that specific Cortex job.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [370, 220]}, {\"parameters\": {\"analyzer\": \"f4abc1b633b80f45af165970793fd4fd::Abuse_Finder_3_0\", \"observableType\": \"url\", \"observableValue\": \"https:\/\/n8n.io\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Cortex\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cortex\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [570, 220]}, {\"parameters\": {\"jobId\": \"={{$node[\\\"Cortex\\\"].json[\\\"_id\\\"]}}\", \"resource\": \"job\"}, \"name\": \"Cortex1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cortex\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [770, 220]}], \"connections\": {\"Cortex\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Cortex1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Cortex\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's design this workflow step by step, thinking through each decision as we go.\n\nFirst, I need to consider the user's main goal: \"Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, submits 'https:\/\/n8n.io' to Cortex for 'Abuse_Finder_3_0' analysis, and then fetches the results of that specific Cortex job.\"\n\nThe very first requirement is \"manually triggers.\" This tells me I need a starting point for the workflow that a user can simply click to initiate.\n\nSo, the first node I'd place on the canvas would be a **Manual Trigger** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its typeVersion is `1`.\n* This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to start a workflow execution when a user manually clicks the 'Execute Workflow' button in the n8n editor or a similar trigger.

I'll name it something descriptive like \"On clicking 'execute'\".\n\nNext, the prompt says \"submits 'https:\/\/n8n.io' to Cortex for 'Abuse_Finder_3_0' analysis.\" This clearly indicates an interaction with a Cortex instance.

This is the value that needs to be analyzed, so I'll set the `observableValue` parameter to `https:\/\/n8n.io`.\n * Since `https:\/\/n8n.io` is a URL, I need to tell Cortex what type of observable it is. So, I'll set the `observableType` parameter to `url`.\n * The prompt also specifies \"for 'Abuse_Finder_3_0' analysis\". This means I need to select the correct analyzer. The `analyzer` parameter would be configured with the specific ID for 'Abuse_Finder_3_0', which in the JSON is `f4abc1b633b80f45af165970793fd4fd::Abuse_Finder_3_0`. This unique identifier ensures the correct analysis module is used within Cortex.\n * Finally, to communicate with Cortex, this node will require credentials. The `credentials` field would be set to reference a pre-configured Cortex API credential, let's say \"cortex\" as per the JSON. This is where API keys or authentication tokens for Cortex would be securely stored and used. I won't specify any actual values, just that it needs to be configured.\n* This node will output the details of the job it just created in Cortex, crucially including the job ID.\n\nThe last part of the prompt is \"and then fetches the results of that specific Cortex job.\" This means I need *another* Cortex node, but this time, it's not to submit a new job, but to retrieve information about an existing one.\n\nI'll connect this second **Cortex** node, which I'll call \"Cortex1\" to differentiate it, directly from the previous \"Cortex\" node. This is important because it needs information from the *previous* Cortex job.\n* Its type is also `n8n-nodes-base.cortex`, and its typeVersion is `1`.\n* Again, this node is the correct choice because it can perform various operations on Cortex resources, including fetching job details.\n* For its configuration:\n * Since I want to fetch the *results* of a job, I'll set the `resource` parameter to `job`. This tells the node I'm interested in querying a job resource in Cortex.\n * Crucially, to fetch the results of *that specific* Cortex job (the one we just submitted), I need its ID. The previous \"Cortex\" node will output this ID. So, for the `jobId` parameter, I'll use an expression that dynamically gets the `_id` from the output of the \"Cortex\" node: `={{$node[\"Cortex\"].json[\"_id\"]}}`. This ensures that this node queries for the exact job that was created in the previous step.\n * Similar to the previous Cortex node, this one also needs to authenticate with the Cortex instance. So, the `credentials` field would again reference the same configured Cortex API credential, \"cortex\".\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the requirements. The data flow is straightforward: the trigger starts it, the first Cortex node submits the observable and outputs the job ID, and the second Cortex node uses that job ID to fetch the job's results." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow containing a single Airtable node. Configure its 'Application' and 'Table' parameters as URL input fields, designed to capture full Airtable base and table URLs respectively.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"application\": {\"__rl\": true, \"mode\": \"url\", \"value\": \"\", \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"}, \"table\": {\"__rl\": true, \"mode\": \"url\", \"value\": \"\", \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"}}, \"name\": \"Airtable\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.airtable\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [380, 180]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The request is pretty clear: a single Airtable node, configured in a very specific way for its 'Application' and 'Table' parameters.\n\nSo, the very first thing I'd do is bring in the core functionality we need. Since we're interacting with Airtable, an **Airtable** node is the obvious choice. I'd drag that onto the canvas. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.airtable`, and it's using `typeVersion: 1`. This is the standard, most current version for this base node type, which is good; it means we're using up-to-date functionality and won't hit any deprecated features. I'd go ahead and give it a name, \"Airtable\" seems perfectly suitable as per the JSON. Its `position` at `[380, 180]` is just a visual layout detail, putting it roughly in the center of a new canvas.\n\nNow, the crucial part: configuring this Airtable node. The prompt specifically asks for its 'Application' (which maps to the Airtable base) and 'Table' parameters to be URL input fields. This is not the default way n8n usually handles these, so we'll need to dig into the node's parameters.\n\nFirst, let's look at the `application` parameter. The JSON shows `mode: \"url\"`. This is exactly what we need. By setting the `mode` to \"url\", n8n presents this parameter to the user as a field where they are expected to paste or type a URL. This aligns perfectly with the requirement for a \"URL input field\" for the Airtable base.\n\nAlong with `mode: \"url\"`, I see `value: \"\"`. This empty string for `value` is also correct because it's an input field; we're not pre-filling it with a specific URL. It's meant to be provided by the user when the workflow is used. The `__rl: true` property is typically used for parameters that are resolved at runtime or are user-facing inputs, which makes sense for something like a dynamically provided Airtable base URL.\n\nThen, there's the `__regex` property for `application`: `\"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. This is really smart. The prompt mentioned capturing \"full Airtable base ... URLs\". Just providing a URL field isn't enough; we want to ensure the user provides a *valid* Airtable base URL. This regular expression acts as a validation rule. It ensures that the input URL starts with \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/\" and is followed by at least two alphanumeric characters, which is typical for an Airtable base ID. This prevents users from accidentally typing in a non-Airtable URL or an incomplete one, guiding them towards correct input.\n\nNext, we move to the `table` parameter, which also needs to be a URL input field. Similar to `application`, I'd configure its `mode` to `\"url\"`. Again, `value: \"\"` means it's an empty input field, and `__rl: true` confirms it's a runtime-resolved, user-facing parameter.\n\nThe `__regex` for the `table` parameter is slightly different and importantly, more specific: `\"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. This regex validates that the input is a full Airtable *table* URL. It correctly expects \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/\", followed by the base ID (at least two alphanumeric characters), then a slash, and finally the table ID (again, at least two alphanumeric characters). This ensures that the user provides a complete and properly formatted URL that points directly to a specific table within a specific base. This level of validation is critical for making the workflow robust and user-friendly, preventing errors due to malformed URLs.\n\nSince the prompt specifies a single Airtable node, there are no `connections` to configure. The `connections` object in the JSON is empty, which is exactly what I'd expect for a workflow that's just one isolated node meant to perform an action based on its own configuration.\n\nSo, in summary, the Airtable node's type and version are standard. The core of this design revolves around using the `mode: \"url\"` feature for the `application` and `table` parameters, coupled with precise `__regex` patterns to enforce the expected Airtable URL format. This design fulfills the user's requirement for URL input fields that capture full Airtable base and table URLs." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named \"CredentialOnlyNodes\".

The request is quite specific: a new workflow, inactive, named \"CredentialOnlyNodes,\" starting with a manual trigger, and then an HTTP Request node configured for a specific GET request with a named credential.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to initiate its execution. The prompt explicitly states \"It should start with a manual trigger node.\" This immediately points me to the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. This is the ideal choice for a workflow that needs to be run on demand, perhaps for testing, debugging, or simply when a user decides it's time to kick it off. It's simple, straightforward, and serves its purpose perfectly as an entry point. Looking at the provided JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node doesn't really have any parameters to configure; its purpose is solely to provide an execution signal. So, I'd drag that onto the canvas as my first node.\n\nNext, the prompt says this manual trigger needs to be \"connected to an HTTP Request node that performs a GET request to `https:\/\/www.virustotal.com\/api\/v3\/popular_threat_categories`.\" This is a clear indicator that we need to make an external call, which is precisely what the `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` node is designed for. It's the go-to node for interacting with APIs, fetching data from web endpoints, or sending information out. The JSON shows its `typeVersion` is `4.1`, which is a commonly used and robust version of this node. So, I'd add this node right after the manual trigger.\n\nNow, how do they connect? The `manualTrigger` node has a single output, typically named 'main'. I'd draw a connection from the 'main' output of \"When clicking \\\"Execute Workflow\\\"\" (my manual trigger node) to the 'main' input of the newly added \"HTTP Request\" node. This ensures that when the trigger fires, the HTTP Request node will receive the signal and execute. The JSON confirms this connection: `\"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Execute Workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"VirusTotal HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`.\n\nWith the nodes in place, I need to configure the \"VirusTotal HTTP Request\" node according to the requirements.\nThe first piece of configuration is the `method`. The prompt says it \"performs a GET request,\" so I'd set the 'Method' parameter to `GET`.\nThen, the `url`. It's explicitly provided: `https:\/\/www.virustotal.com\/api\/v3\/popular_threat_categories`. I'd paste that directly into the 'URL' parameter.\nThe crucial part here is the authentication. The prompt states \"using a `virusTotalApi` credential named \"VirusTotal account\".\" This tells me I'll need to select a pre-defined credential. In the node's parameters, under 'Authentication', I would choose \"Predefined Credential Type\". This then typically exposes a 'Credential Type' dropdown. Based on the JSON, the `nodeCredentialType` is `virusTotalApi`. So, I'd select `virusTotalApi` there. Furthermore, the `credentials` block in the JSON specifies a particular instance: `\"credentials\": {\"virusTotalApi\": {\"id\": \"q80wx3kiggmjWdY9\", \"name\": \"VirusTotal account\"}}`. This means the node is set up to use a specific credential instance that already exists in n8n, identified by its unique ID and named \"VirusTotal account\". This is good practice for managing API keys and secrets securely.\n\nLooking at the other parameters in the JSON for the HTTP Request node, `sendQuery`, `sendHeaders`, `sendBody`, and `options` are all set to `false` or are empty. This means no additional query parameters, custom headers, or request body content are being sent, and no special options are configured for the request, which is expected for a simple GET request that uses a credential. The `curlImport` and `httpVariantWarning` are internal properties, not something I'd manually configure as a designer.\n\nFinally, the workflow itself needs to be named and set to inactive. The prompt specifies \"named 'CredentialOnlyNodes'\". So, I'd ensure the workflow's name property is set to \"CredentialOnlyNodes\". And \"inactive\": this means the workflow should not automatically run or consume resources until explicitly activated. So, the `active` property of the workflow would be set to `false`. This workflow looks complete based on the prompt's requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a 'On clicking execute' manual trigger node.

The user prompt is pretty clear: we need a manual trigger to kick things off, and then that needs to connect to a CircleCI node where we'll configure project details and API credentials.\n\nSo, the very first thing that jumps out is the need for a trigger. The prompt specifically asks for an \"On clicking execute\" manual trigger. That's straightforward.\n\nI'd look for the `manualTrigger` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, which is exactly what we need for a manual start. For its name, \"On clicking 'execute'\" is a perfect fit, making it very clear what it does. I see the `typeVersion` is `1`, which is usually the initial or a very stable version for such a fundamental node, so I'd expect it to work reliably for its basic purpose. Parameters are empty, `{}`, which makes sense for a simple manual trigger; it doesn't need any complex setup, just the action of being clicked. So, that's our starting point, the entry gate to the workflow.\n\nNow, what's next? The prompt says, \"Connect this trigger to a CircleCI node.\" So, the next logical step is to add that CircleCI node. I'll pull in the `CircleCI` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.circleCi`, which is the dedicated integration for CircleCI, precisely what's required. The name \"CircleCI\" is also perfectly descriptive for this node. This node will be responsible for interacting with the CircleCI API.\n\nLet's think about how this `CircleCI` node needs to be configured. Looking at the JSON, I see it has `parameters` and `credentials`.\nFirst, the `parameters`. There's `\"vcs\": \"\"` and `\"projectSlug\": \"\"`. The `vcs` parameter is for specifying the Version Control System, like GitHub or Bitbucket, that your CircleCI project uses. It's currently empty, so a user building this workflow would need to select their VCS (e.g., 'github' or 'bitbucket') here. Then, `projectSlug` is crucial. This is how the CircleCI API knows *which* specific project to interact with. It's typically in the format `vcs\/organization\/repository-name`. Again, it's empty in the JSON, meaning this is a required configuration step for the user; they'd have to input their actual project slug here. This makes total sense, as you can't interact with CircleCI without knowing *what* project you're talking about. The `typeVersion` for this CircleCI node is also `1`, suggesting a core set of functionalities are available for interacting with the API.\n\nThen there are the `credentials`. The JSON shows `\"circleCiApi\": \"\"`. This is where the API authentication comes in. For the CircleCI node to talk to the CircleCI service, it needs valid credentials, likely a personal API token generated in CircleCI. This field being empty means that the user building this workflow will need to set up a new credential entry in n8n and link it here, providing their actual API key or token. This is fundamental for any API interaction node. The prompt explicitly mentioned \"API credentials,\" so this aligns perfectly.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The prompt implies a direct flow: \"Connect this trigger to a CircleCI node.\" So, the `On clicking 'execute'` trigger node should output directly to the `CircleCI` node. The `connections` section in the JSON confirms this: `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"CircleCI\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the `main` output of the `manualTrigger` node flows into the `main` input of the `CircleCI` node. When the manual trigger is executed, it sends an item (or just a signal to proceed) to the CircleCI node, which then executes its configured operation using the project slug and credentials. This establishes a simple, linear flow, just as described. It's a very straightforward and common pattern: trigger -> action." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that manually triggers and inserts data into a new row of a Coda table.

This breaks down into three main conceptual parts: triggering, preparing data, and performing the Coda action.\n\nFirst, the trigger. The request specifically mentions \"manually triggers.\" This immediately tells me that I need a node that allows a user to initiate the workflow directly from the n8n interface. Looking through the available n8n nodes, the `Manual Trigger` node is the perfect fit for this. It's simple, straightforward, and does exactly what its name suggests. So, I'll start by adding a `Manual Trigger` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and it uses `typeVersion: 1`. For this node, the `parameters` are typically empty as its sole purpose is to start the workflow when clicked. It won't have any inputs, and its output will simply be a single item to kick off the next step.\n\nNext up, the prompt says, \"Before inserting, set the values for 'Column 1', 'Column 2', and 'Column 3' to example string data.\" This means I need a way to define some data that will be passed along. A `Set` node is exactly what we need here. It's designed to create new fields or modify existing ones within the workflow's data items. So, I'll connect a `Set` node directly after the `Manual Trigger`. The `Manual Trigger` will pass an empty item to the `Set` node, which will then populate it with the desired data. This `Set` node will have the `type` `n8n-nodes-base.set` and also `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how do I configure this `Set` node? The prompt specifies \"Column 1,\" \"Column 2,\" and \"Column 3\" with \"example string data.\" So, within the `Set` node's `parameters`, specifically under `values.string`, I'll add three separate entries. Each entry will represent one of our desired columns.\n* The first entry will have its `name` set to \"Column 1\" and its `value` set to \"This is column 1 data\".\n* The second will be named \"Column 2\" with a `value` of \"This is column 2 data\".\n* And the third will be named \"Column 3\" with a `value` of \"This is column 3 data\".\nThis configuration ensures that the `Set` node will output a single item containing these three properties, ready to be used by the Coda node. The `options` parameter can remain empty, as we don't need any special handling like JSON parsing or ignoring empty values in this simple case.\n\nFinally, the last part of the prompt is to \"insert data into a new row of a Coda table.\" This clearly points to using the `Coda` node, which is purpose-built for interacting with the Coda API. So, I'll connect this `Coda` node after the `Set` node. The data item created by the `Set` node (containing \"Column 1\", \"Column 2\", and \"Column 3\") will be passed as input to this `Coda` node. The `Coda` node will have `type` `n8n-nodes-base.coda` and `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nFor configuring the `Coda` node, several key pieces are needed:\n* First, it needs to know *which* Coda document to work with. This is specified in the `docId` parameter. I would configure this with the specific ID of the target Coda document.\n* Second, it needs to know *which table* within that document to operate on. This is set in the `tableId` parameter, where I would input the ID of the specific table where the new row should be added.\n* Crucially, to interact with Coda, the node requires authentication. This is handled via `credentials.codaApi`. Here, I would link to a pre-configured Coda API credential, which securely stores the necessary API key to allow n8n to communicate with Coda on my behalf.\n* While not explicitly listed in the JSON parameters for the Coda node, an implicit or default operation for adding data to a table is expected. Given the user's request \"inserts data into a new row,\" the node would typically be configured for a 'Create row' or 'Add row' operation, where it takes the incoming data (our 'Column 1', 'Column 2', 'Column 3' values from the `Set` node) and maps them to the corresponding columns in the specified Coda table. The `options` parameter would typically be left empty unless specific Coda API options (like value format) are needed.\n\nSo, the flow is:\n1. `On clicking 'execute'` (the `Manual Trigger`) starts the workflow.\n2. It passes an item to the `Set` node.\n3. The `Set` node creates an item with \"Column 1\", \"Column 2\", and \"Column 3\" data.\n4. This item is then passed to the `Coda` node, which uses the data to insert a new row into the specified Coda document and table.\n\nThis setup fulfills all the requirements of the prompt, providing a manually triggerable workflow that prepares specific string data and inserts it into a Coda table." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Node versions' containing a manual trigger and a function node, both with `typeVersion: 1`.

The prompt specifies \"Node versions,\" so that's what I'll call it. This helps organize things and makes it clear what the workflow is about.\n\nNow, a workflow needs a starting point. The prompt explicitly asks for a manual trigger. So, I'll add a **Manual Trigger** node.\n* Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`.\n* The JSON names it \"When clicking \u2018Execute workflow\u2019,\" which is a standard and very descriptive name for this kind of trigger. I like that; it's clear what it does.\n* The prompt specifies `typeVersion: 1`. This is important. It means I'm locking this trigger to a specific version of its underlying code. This ensures consistent behavior, especially if future versions of n8n might introduce changes to this node type. For a simple trigger, version 1 is perfectly suitable.\n* Visually, I'll place it roughly at coordinates `[460, 460]` on the canvas, which is a good central starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt asks for three horizontally arranged Set nodes, each with different `typeVersion`s. I'll also need a Function node. Looking at the provided JSON, there are no explicit connections defined between *any* of the nodes (`\"connections\": {}`). This means these nodes are more about demonstrating different `typeVersion`s and their positions rather than a sequential data flow. I'll place them out on the canvas as distinct entities for now.\n\nLet's add the Set nodes based on their names and specified versions. The first Set node in the JSON's preferred order based on `position` looks like it's the 'Edit Fields (latest)' one.\n* So, I'll add a **Set** node.\n* Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.set`.\n* I'll name it \"Edit Fields (latest),\" as per the prompt.\n* The prompt specifies `typeVersion: 3.4`. This is likely the most current stable version of the Set node logic. Choosing this version means I'm opting for the latest features, bug fixes, and potentially performance improvements that n8n offers for data manipulation via the Set node.\n* For placement, the JSON puts it at `[640, 460]`. This puts it horizontally to the right of the manual trigger, which aligns with the \"horizontally arranged\" request.\n\nFollowing the horizontal arrangement, the next Set node is 'Edit Fields (old)'.\n* Again, this will be a **Set** node, type `n8n-nodes-base.set`.\n* I'll name it \"Edit Fields (old)\".\n* Crucially, its `typeVersion` is specified as `2`. This is an older version compared to 3.4. Why would I choose an older version? Perhaps for compatibility with legacy workflows, to avoid any breaking changes introduced in newer versions, or simply to illustrate how a specific older version of the Set node behaves. It's a deliberate choice to use an older iteration of the node's functionality.\n* Its position is `[800, 460]`, continuing the horizontal line.\n\nNow, let's incorporate the **Function** node requested by the prompt.\n* This will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.function`.\n* The JSON names it simply \"Function.\" This node is incredibly versatile for writing custom JavaScript logic. It can transform data, perform complex calculations, or even just log information. Since no specific function is described, it acts as a good placeholder to demonstrate a node with a specific `typeVersion`.\n* Its `typeVersion` is `1`. Similar to the manual trigger, locking it to version 1 ensures its behavior remains consistent with that specific iteration of the Function node's capabilities.\n* Its position is `[960, 460]`, further along the horizontal axis.\n\nFinally, the last Set node, 'Edit Fields (no typeVersion)'.\n* It's another **Set** node, type `n8n-nodes-base.set`.\n* I'll name it \"Edit Fields (no typeVersion)\".\n* The interesting part here is that *no* `typeVersion` is specified. When `typeVersion` is omitted, n8n typically defaults to the latest or a pre-defined compatible version of that node type available in the current n8n instance. This means its behavior *could* potentially change if I later update my n8n server to a version that ships with a new default `typeVersion` for the Set node. It's less fixed than the other nodes, which might be a choice for simplicity or to always run the \"current default.\"\n* Its position is `[1120, 460]`, completing the horizontal arrangement of the nodes.\n\nAs I review the JSON's `connections` property, it's explicitly an empty object: `{}`. This means that even though I've laid out all these nodes visually in a logical horizontal flow, there are no actual data-passing connections defined between them. The manual trigger isn't connected to anything, and none of the Set or Function nodes are connected to each other either.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to kick things off with a webhook, grab some text from a Google Doc, and then send that text right back as the webhook's response. We also need to make sure it's nicely titled and tagged for easy discovery later.\n\nFirst things first, a workflow needs a starting point, something to trigger it. The prompt explicitly says it's \"triggered by a webhook.\" So, the absolute first node we'll need to add is a **Webhook** node. This is fundamental for any workflow that needs to be initiated by an external system or event calling a specific URL.\n\nI'll choose the `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` type, and looking at the provided structure, `typeVersion: 2` seems appropriate. This version typically offers robust features for handling incoming requests.\n\nNow, how should this Webhook node behave regarding its response? The prompt also states that the workflow needs to \"respond to the webhook with the retrieved text.\" This means the Webhook node itself shouldn't send an immediate, default response. Instead, another node later in the workflow will handle the actual response. So, I'll configure its `responseMode` parameter to `responseNode`. This tells n8n, \"Hold off on responding, a downstream node will take care of it.\" We'll also need a unique path for this webhook, which n8n will automatically generate, but for conceptual purposes, just know a unique URL endpoint will be established.\n\nOnce the webhook receives a call, what's next? We need to \"fetch content from the Google Doc.\" This immediately tells me we'll need a node that can interact with Google Docs. The most suitable choice here is a **Google Docs** node.\n\nSo, I'll connect the output of my Webhook node to the input of a new Google Docs node. This creates a clear flow: webhook trigger, then Google Docs action.\n\nFor the Google Docs node, which is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion: 2`, we need to specify what it should do. We're fetching content, so the `operation` parameter should be set to `get`. This is the operation designed for retrieving document content. Crucially, it needs to know *which* document to get the content from. The prompt provides a specific Google Doc URL, so that URL would be configured in the `documentURL` parameter. Of course, to access a Google Doc, this node will also require proper authentication, so credentials for a Google Docs account would need to be linked here.\n\nAfter the Google Docs node successfully fetches the document's content, that content will be available as output data from this node. What do we do with it? The final step is to \"respond to the webhook with the retrieved text.\"\n\nSince we set the initial Webhook node's `responseMode` to `responseNode`, we need a dedicated node to send the final response back. The perfect node for this is the **Respond to Webhook** node.\n\nI'll connect the output of the Google Docs node to the input of this new Respond to Webhook node. This ensures that the data retrieved from Google Docs flows directly into the response mechanism. This node is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion: 1.1`.\n\nNow, how should the Respond to Webhook node be configured? We need to send back \"the retrieved text.\" So, I'll set its `respondWith` parameter to `text`. And for the `responseBody`, we need to pull the actual text content that the Google Docs node outputted. Typically, the Google Docs `get` operation places the document's text into a field like `content` within its output JSON. So, I would use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` in the `responseBody` parameter to dynamically retrieve that text from the previous node's output. This makes sure that whatever the Google Doc contained is what gets sent back to the original webhook caller.\n\nFinally, we also need to address the workflow's metadata. The prompt specified a title: \"GetOnboardingFile What are Automation Triggers?\". This will be set as the workflow's `name`. And for tags, it requested \"tags related to AI and onboarding.\" So I'd ensure tags like \"AI Onboarding\" and \"Onboarding\" are associated with the workflow. Looking at the provided JSON, it also has \"Day 4\" and \"Files\" tags, which are good for additional categorization but not explicitly requested. These tags help with organization and discoverability within the n8n interface.\n\nAnd that completes the thought process for designing this workflow. It's a straightforward sequence: listen, fetch, respond. Each node plays a specific, essential role in fulfilling the prompt's requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers daily at 8 PM. It should fetch the NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day and then send it as a photo to a specified Telegram chat, using the retrieved image URL and title as the caption.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 20}]}}, \"name\": \"Cron\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cron\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"download\": false, \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"NASA\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.nasa\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"file\": \"={{$node[\\\"NASA\\\"].json[\\\"url\\\"]}}\", \"chatId\": \"-485365454\", \"operation\": \"sendPhoto\", \"additionalFields\": {\"caption\": \"={{$node[\\\"NASA\\\"].json[\\\"title\\\"]}}\"}}, \"name\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegram\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [850, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Cron\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"NASA\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"NASA\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's design this workflow from the ground up, thinking about each step needed to fulfill the request.\n\nThe user wants a daily trigger, fetching the NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day, and then sending it to Telegram.\n\nThe very first thing we need is a way to kick off this workflow at the specified time. The request states \"daily at 8 PM\". This immediately tells me we need a time-based trigger. Looking at n8n's available nodes, the `Cron` node is perfect for this. It's designed specifically for scheduled executions.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a `Cron` node. Its type would be `n8n-nodes-base.cron`, and looking at the JSON, its `typeVersion` is 1. Now, how do we configure it for \"daily at 8 PM\"? I'd go into its parameters and find the `triggerTimes` option. Within that, I'd specify the hour. The request says 8 PM, which is 20 in a 24-hour format. So, I'd set the `hour` property to `20`. This ensures our workflow will start exactly when needed, every day. This `Cron` node will serve as the starting point for our entire workflow.\n\nNow that we have the trigger, what's the next logical step? The request is to \"fetch the NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day\". This means we need to interact with the NASA API. n8n often has dedicated nodes for popular services, which simplifies things immensely. I'd look for a `NASA` node. And indeed, the JSON confirms there's one available.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `Cron` node's output to this new `NASA` node. The `NASA` node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.nasa`, and its `typeVersion` is also 1. Now, for its configuration: we simply want the Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD). This node usually defaults to fetching the APOD, which is great. An important consideration here is how the image data is passed. The Telegram node will eventually need an image URL. Looking at the `NASA` node's parameters, there's a `download` option. If we set `download` to `true`, the node would download the image file itself, which might be useful if we wanted to process the image locally, but for sending to Telegram via URL, it's actually better to just get the URL directly. So, I'd make sure the `download` parameter is set to `false`, as indicated in the JSON. This way, the `NASA` node will output the URL and other metadata, which is exactly what we need for the next step. Of course, this node would require a NASA API key credential to be configured, which would be managed separately in the n8n credentials section and referenced here.\n\nWith the NASA APOD data retrieved, including its image URL and title, the final step is to \"send it as a photo to a specified Telegram chat, using the retrieved image URL and title as the caption.\" This clearly points to a `Telegram` node.\n\nI'd connect the `NASA` node's output to this new `Telegram` node. The `Telegram` node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.telegram`, and its `typeVersion` is 1. For its operation, we definitely need \"sendPhoto\". So, I'd set the `operation` parameter to `sendPhoto`.\n\nNow, the crucial part: passing the data from the `NASA` node to the `Telegram` node.\nThe `sendPhoto` operation needs a `file` parameter, which can accept a URL. This is perfect because our `NASA` node gave us the image URL. So, for the `file` parameter, I'd use an expression to reference the `url` property from the `NASA` node's output. The expression would look something like `={{$node[\"NASA\"].json[\"url\"]}}`. This tells the Telegram node to take the `url` field from the data produced by the `NASA` node and use it as the image to send.\n\nNext, we need to specify the recipient. The request says \"to a specified Telegram chat.\" This means we need to provide a `chatId`. This would be a specific identifier for the Telegram chat or user where the photo should be sent. This ID would be hardcoded or retrieved from another source, but for this workflow, it's directly provided in the JSON as a static value.\n\nFinally, the caption. The request explicitly states \"using the retrieved image URL and title as the caption.\" We've already used the URL for the photo itself, so the title is what's left for the caption. The `sendPhoto` operation usually has an `additionalFields` section where you can specify things like `caption`. So, I'd add a `caption` parameter within `additionalFields` and again use an expression to pull the `title` from the `NASA` node's output: `={{$node[\"NASA\"].json[\"title\"]}}`. This ensures the photo is accompanied by its proper title.\n\nJust like the `NASA` node, this `Telegram` node would also require a Telegram API credential, like a bot token, which would be managed in the n8n credentials system and referenced here.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow starts daily at 8 PM, fetches the NASA image details, and then sends that image with its title as a caption to the specified Telegram chat. The data flow from the `Cron` triggering `NASA`, and `NASA` providing its output to `Telegram` which uses that data for its operations, seems perfectly aligned with the user's request." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile Registrate LinkedIn Account\" that triggers from a webhook, fetches the content of the Google Doc at `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1cSIoaWnOkzWjDK8LnLdXm0ulwVrGZveDB2f8jmk9PpA\/edit?usp=drive_link`, and then responds to the webhook with the retrieved document's content.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFile Registrate LinkedIn Account\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/RegistrateLinkedInAccount\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1cSIoaWnOkzWjDK8LnLdXm0ulwVrGZveDB2f8jmk9PpA\/edit?usp=drive_link\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The request is pretty clear: we need to trigger from a webhook, fetch a Google Doc's content, and then send that content back as the webhook response. That sounds like a fairly common pattern for exposing a document's content via an API.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly says \"triggers from a webhook,\" so that's where we'll begin. Looking at the n8n nodes, the most appropriate choice is definitely the `Webhook` node. It's designed precisely for this purpose \u2013 to listen for incoming HTTP requests and initiate the workflow.\n\nSo, I'd add a `Webhook` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and I see it's using `typeVersion: 2`. This version usually has good features for handling webhook triggers. For its configuration, I'd need to set up a path. The JSON shows `path: \"onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/RegistrateLinkedInAccount\"`. This is a good, descriptive path that makes the webhook URL clean and understandable. For `responseMode`, it's set to `responseNode`. This is important because it means the webhook won't send an immediate default response; instead, it'll wait for a dedicated \"Respond to Webhook\" node later in the workflow to send the final response. This is exactly what we need, as we want to respond *after* fetching the document.\n\nAlright, with the webhook set up, the next logical step is to get the Google Doc's content. The prompt states \"fetches the content of the Google Doc\". n8n has a dedicated node for interacting with Google Docs, which is perfect. I'd drag in a `Google Docs` node. Looking at the JSON, it's of type `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion: 2`. This is the right tool for the job; it abstracts away the complexities of the Google Docs API.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Google Docs node? The operation needs to be \"get\" to retrieve a document. So, I'd set `operation: \"get\"`. Then, the crucial part is specifying *which* document to get. There's a `documentURL` parameter, and that's where the specific Google Doc link provided in the prompt would go. I can see it's configured with a placeholder for a Google Doc URL. It also needs credentials to access Google Docs, specifically `googleDocsOAuth2Api`. This is standard for Google services, ensuring proper authentication and authorization. The webhook node would connect to this Google Docs node, creating a direct flow from trigger to action.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"and then responds to the webhook with the retrieved document's content.\" We initiated the workflow with a webhook configured to wait for a specific response node, so now's the time to provide that response. The `Respond to Webhook` node is designed for exactly this. I'd add a `Respond to Webhook` node right after the Google Docs node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node allows us to send a custom response back to the original webhook caller.\n\nFor its configuration, we want to respond with the document's content. So, `respondWith` should be set to \"text\". And for the `responseBody`, this is where we link to the output of the previous Google Docs node. The Google Docs node, when it successfully fetches a document, typically outputs the document's content in a field like `content`. So, an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` would be used to dynamically pull that content and send it as the webhook's response. This expression is perfect because it takes the `content` property from the JSON output of the preceding node, which is exactly what we need.\n\nThe connection flow would be `Webhook` -> `Google Docs` -> `Respond to Webhook`, ensuring that the workflow progresses logically from triggering, to fetching, to responding. This chain of nodes directly addresses all parts of the user's request." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that starts with a manual trigger, configured to output two sample data items, each containing a string, number, array, object, and an 'any' field.

Let's break this down step by step, imagining I'm building it out.\n\nThe first thing that comes to mind, given the prompt, is obviously the trigger. It clearly states \"starts with a manual trigger.\" So, that's going to be my foundational node.\n\nI'd search for the `Manual Trigger` node, which is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. Looking at the JSON, it's there with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it allows me to initiate the workflow just by clicking a button in the n8n interface, which is super handy for testing and development, or for workflows that aren't meant to run on a schedule or react to external events.\n\nNow, the prompt also specifies that this manual trigger needs to \"output two sample data items, each containing a string, number, array, object, and an 'any' field.\" This is where the configuration of the `Manual Trigger` node becomes critical. While the `parameters` section for this node in the JSON is empty, which means no interactive settings like \"Execute once\" or \"Input Data\" fields are explicitly set in its parameters, the `pinData` section of the overall workflow JSON tells us exactly what data this trigger will produce.\n\nThe `pinData` shows an array with two items.\nThe first item has:\n* `aaString`: \"A String\" - a basic string value.\n* `aaNumber`: 1 - a simple numerical value.\n* `aaArray`: `[1, true, \"3\"]` - an array containing mixed data types, which is a good way to demonstrate its flexibility.\n* `aaObject`: `{\"aKey\": -1}` - a simple object with a key-value pair.\n* `aaAny`: `{}` - an empty object. This really highlights the \"any\" type, as it can hold anything.\n\nThe second item then has:\n* `aaString`: \"Another String\" - another string.\n* `aaNumber`: 2 - another number.\n* `aaArray`: `[]` - an empty array this time.\n* `aaObject`: `{\"aDifferentKey\": -1}` - a different object, just to show variations.\n* `aaAny`: `[]` - and here, the \"any\" field holds an empty array, further proving its versatility.\n\nSo, when this `Manual Trigger` node runs, it will directly output these two distinct data items. This satisfies the sample data requirement perfectly.\n\nNext up, the prompt says to \"Connect this trigger node to an 'Execute Workflow' node.\" Okay, so after the trigger, the data needs to go somewhere. An `Execute Workflow` node is used when you want to call another n8n workflow from within the current one. This is super useful for building modular workflows, where you might have common sub-processes that are reused across multiple main workflows.\n\nI'd add an `Execute Workflow` node. In the JSON, it's identified as `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow` with `typeVersion: 1.2`.\n\nThe connection is straightforward: the `Manual Trigger`'s `main` output should connect directly to the `Execute Workflow` node's `main` input. The `connections` section in the JSON confirms this: `{\"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Execute Workflow\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the data generated by the `Manual Trigger` (those two items we just discussed) will flow directly into the `Execute Workflow` node.\n\nNow, let's look at the configuration for the `Execute Workflow` node itself.\n* `workflowId`: The `workflowId` parameter in the JSON is an empty object `{}`, meaning that a specific workflow ID is not hardcoded here. In a real scenario, this is where you'd typically select the ID of the workflow you intend to call. It might be dynamically determined, or just left blank for the user to pick in the UI.\n* `workflowInputs`: This part is interesting. The `mappingMode` is set to `defineBelow`, but the `value` is an empty object `{}`. This means that no *explicit* mapping of the incoming data to specific inputs of the child workflow is defined. However, n8n typically passes the entire incoming item data as \"input data\" to the executed workflow, even without explicit mapping, unless you choose a different `mappingMode` like \"Pass All Fields.\"\n* `options`: We see `attemptToConvertTypes: false` and `convertFieldsToString: true`. These are general data handling options. `attemptToConvertTypes: false` means the node won't try to guess the data type if it's ambiguous, which is often safer. `convertFieldsToString: true` implies that any fields passed as input will be converted to strings before being sent to the child workflow, which can be useful for ensuring data consistency if the child workflow expects string inputs. This is a good default for robustness, especially if the child workflow isn't strictly typed or if you're passing data that might not be directly compatible without string conversion.\n\nSo, to summarize, the `Manual Trigger` sets up the initial data flow with the specified sample items, and then that data directly feeds into the `Execute Workflow` node, which is ready to invoke another workflow, although the specific workflow ID isn't pre-configured in this JSON snippet." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that uses the TheHive Trigger node to receive updates for all events occurring in TheHive.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Receive updates when an event occurs in TheHive\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"events\": [\"*\"]}, \"name\": \"TheHive Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.theHiveTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [690, 220]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get started on building this n8n workflow. The core requirement here, as I understand it, is to set up a system that can *listen* for and *receive* any and all event updates happening within TheHive platform. This immediately tells me I'm going to need a trigger node, something that initiates the workflow when a specific external event occurs.\n\nGiven that the source of the events is TheHive, the most logical first, and in this case, only node I'll need, is the **TheHive Trigger** node. This node is specifically designed to integrate with TheHive's webhook capabilities to start a workflow.\n\nSo, the first thing I'd do is drop a **TheHive Trigger** node onto the canvas. Its full type is `n8n-nodes-base.theHiveTrigger`, and the provided JSON shows `typeVersion: 1`. This `typeVersion` indicates the specific version of the node's internal logic and configuration structure. Generally, if there were a newer version, I'd consider if any breaking changes or new features were introduced that might affect the workflow, but for a simple trigger like this, `typeVersion 1` is perfectly fine and stable for the task.\n\nNow, let's configure this TheHive Trigger node. My main goal here is to ensure it captures *all* events, as specified in the prompt.\n\nLooking at the node's parameters, I see a few things:\n* **Name:** The JSON gives it the name \"TheHive Trigger\". This is a good, descriptive name, making it clear what this node does.\n* **Position:** `[690, 220]` - This is just about where it's placed on the canvas; not critical to functionality, but it's part of the node's definition.\n* **webhookId:** I see a `webhookId: \"bef3fea8-2d68-43e8-9061-6c17c1059c86\"`. This is an internal identifier that n8n generates when you add a webhook-based trigger node. It's essentially the unique ID for the webhook URL that TheHive will call to send its updates to this workflow. I wouldn't need to manually set this; n8n handles it automatically when the workflow is activated.\n* **Parameters -> events:** This is the most crucial setting for meeting the \"all events\" requirement. The JSON shows `events: [\"*\"]`. The asterisk (`*`) is a wildcard, which tells the TheHive Trigger node to listen for *any* event type that TheHive might send. If the requirement was, for example, only new alerts, I'd specify something like `[\"alert.new\"]`. But because we want *all* updates for *all* events, the `*` is precisely what we need. This ensures that whether it's a new alert, an updated case, a new observable, or any other action within TheHive, this workflow will be triggered.\n\nOnce this node is configured, TheHive Trigger will provide a unique webhook URL. This URL would then need to be configured within TheHive itself (typically in its `application.conf` or through its web interface, depending on TheHive version and setup) as a global webhook destination. That way, whenever an event happens in TheHive, it sends a payload to this n8n webhook, which in turn triggers this workflow.\n\nSince the prompt specifically asks to \"receive updates,\" and doesn't mention any subsequent actions like processing the data or sending notifications, this single **TheHive Trigger** node configured to listen for `\"*\"` events perfectly fulfills the requirement. There are no connections specified (`connections: {}`), which makes sense because this workflow's primary job is simply to *be triggered* and receive the data. If we wanted to, say, send an email when an event occurs, I'd then add another node (like an Email Send node) and connect the output of the TheHive Trigger to it, passing the event data along. But for just receiving, this is complete.\n\nThe workflow is also shown as `active: false`, meaning it's currently saved but not running. To actually receive updates, it would need to be activated.

So, I'd name it 'My workflow 8' and assign it the ID 8 right away, as requested. Crucially, the prompt also says it needs to be *inactive* from the start, so I'll make sure the `active` property is set to `false`. This prevents it from running automatically when deployed or saved, which is important for testing or if it's not ready for production.\n\nNow, for the actual workflow logic. Every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states it should start with a manual trigger. So, my first node will definitely be a manual trigger. Looking at the JSON, I see a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect. I'd typically call it something descriptive like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" as seen in the JSON. This node is straightforward; it doesn't really have any parameters to configure. Its job is simply to kick off the workflow when someone manually initiates it, which is exactly what's needed here. Using `typeVersion: 1` means we're using the standard, stable version of this trigger. I don't anticipate any significant changes in behavior with different versions for such a basic trigger.\n\nNext, after the workflow is triggered, the data needs to flow into the 'Customer Datastore' node. This is where the core data retrieval happens. So, I'll need to draw a connection from the `manualTrigger` node's main output to this 'Customer Datastore' node's main input.\nLooking at the JSON, the 'Customer Datastore' node is identified as `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\"`, with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed for interacting with a customer datastore, probably a custom or training-specific integration within n8n. The prompt specifies two key configurations for it: `getAllPeople` operation and a `limit` of 10.\nSo, in the node's parameters, I'd set `operation` to `\"getAllPeople\"`. This tells the node *what* to do \u2013 in this case, retrieve information about all people from the datastore. Then, to control the volume of data, I'd set the `limit` parameter to `10`. This ensures that even if there are thousands of records, the workflow only processes the first 10, which is good for performance or when you only need a sample. The `typeVersion: 1` here indicates a specific version of this custom node. If there were other versions, they might offer different operations or parameters, but for this task, version 1 with these settings seems perfectly adequate.\n\nFinally, after retrieving the customer data, the prompt requires adding some new properties to the data using a 'Set' node. This is a common requirement to enrich or transform data before further processing or storage. So, the output of the 'Customer Datastore' node will connect to the input of this 'Set' node.\nThe 'Set' node in the JSON is `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"`, again with `typeVersion: 1`. The 'Set' node is incredibly versatile for adding or modifying data.\nThe prompt specifies adding `objectValue.prop1` as a number (123) and `objectValue.prop2` as a string ('someText'), using dot notation. This is crucial.\nInside the `parameters` of the Set node, I'd define the `values` to be added.\nFirst, for `objectValue.prop1`, I'd specify it as a `number` type, with `name: \"objectValue.prop1\"` and `value: 123`.\nSecond, for `objectValue.prop2`, I'd specify it as a `string` type, with `name: \"objectValue.prop2\"` and `value: \"someText\"`.\nThe really important part here is the `options` object, specifically `dotNotation: true`. This setting is absolutely critical because it tells the 'Set' node to interpret the dot in `objectValue.prop1` not as part of the literal field name, but as an instruction to create a nested object structure. Without `dotNotation: true`, it would just create a flat property named \"objectValue.prop1\", which isn't what's desired. So, enabling dot notation ensures `prop1` and `prop2` end up nested inside an `objectValue` object, as intended. The `typeVersion: 1` for the Set node is standard; different versions might have minor UI changes or additional features, but the core functionality for setting values, especially with dot notation, has been stable for a while.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the entire workflow logic as described in the prompt and reflected in the JSON. The connections ensure the data flows correctly from the trigger, through data retrieval, and then into manipulation." } { "prompt": "Generate an active n8n workflow JSON named 'Test Workflow as Code'. The workflow starts with a webhook trigger at path 'test-workflow-as-code' and connects to a 'Set' node that defines 'testVariable' with the value 'test value'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Test Workflow as Code\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"test-workflow-as-code\", \"responseMode\": \"lastNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [580, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"string\": [{\"name\": \"testVariable\", \"value\": \"test value\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. My goal is to create an active n8n workflow, and the user prompt gives me a clear name for it: \"Test Workflow as Code\". So, the first thing I'd set up is the basic workflow structure. I'd give it that name, \"Test Workflow as Code\", and immediately mark it as `active: true`. This ensures it's ready to run as soon as it's saved. The `createdAt` and `updatedAt` timestamps will be managed by the system, of course, reflecting when I first create and then make any subsequent changes.\n\nNow, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly states the workflow \"starts with a webhook trigger\". This is perfect. A Webhook node (of `type: n8n-nodes-base.webhook`) is the go-to for external systems or services to initiate a workflow via an HTTP request. For this workflow, using `typeVersion: 1` is standard and provides the necessary functionality for basic webhook handling.\n\nWhen configuring this Webhook node, the most critical part is defining its path. The prompt specifies `'test-workflow-as-code'`, so I'll set the `parameters.path` to exactly that. This path will form part of the unique URL that external systems will use to trigger this specific workflow. It's also good practice to make the `webhookId` match the path for easy identification. As for the `responseMode`, setting it to `lastNode` (`parameters.responseMode: \"lastNode\"`) is generally a safe and common default for simpler workflows. It means the HTTP response from the webhook will be whatever the last node in the workflow outputs, which is often desirable for confirmation or data return.\n\nOnce the Webhook node is ready to receive requests, I need to think about what happens next. The prompt states it \"connects to a 'Set' node that defines 'testVariable' with the value 'test value'.\" So, after the Webhook, the logical next step is a 'Set' node.\n\nA 'Set' node (`type: n8n-nodes-base.set`) is incredibly useful for manipulating data within the workflow. Its primary purpose is to add, rename, or modify values in the incoming data. Here, the objective is to define a new variable. Again, `typeVersion: 1` is the current and stable version I'd use for this node type.\n\nWithin the 'Set' node's `parameters`, I'll configure it to create a new value. Specifically, it needs to be a string type, so I'll go into `parameters.values.string`. Inside that array, I'll add an object defining the variable. The `name` for this new variable will be `testVariable` as specified, and its `value` will be `test value`. This is a straightforward way to inject static data into the workflow's item stream, which can then be used by subsequent nodes.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The execution flow needs to move from the `Webhook` to the `Set` node. In the `connections` object, I'll specify that the `Webhook` node's `main` output should connect to the `Set` node. This is represented by `{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}`. This essentially means that once the Webhook node successfully receives a request and processes it, it will pass its output (which, for a Webhook, is usually the incoming request body) as input to the 'Set' node. The 'Set' node will then take that data, add `testVariable` to it, and its output will then be available for any further nodes in the workflow (though in this specific case, the `Set` node is the last one in the main flow, its output is represented by `connections.Set.main` being an empty array).\n\nLooking at the overall `settings`, `executionOrder: \"v1\"` is the standard default and ensures nodes execute in a predictable sequence based on their connections. The `staticData`, `meta`, `pinData`, and `versionId` are either system-managed or not explicitly part of the functional design requirements for this simple workflow, so I'd leave them as default or let n8n handle their generation." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that, upon manual execution, first creates a new WordPress post titled 'created from n8n'. Immediately after, it should update the content of that same post to 'This post was created using the n8n workflow'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [570, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"title\": \"created from n8n\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Wordpress\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wordpress\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [770, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"postId\": \"={{$node[\\\"Wordpress\\\"].json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\", \"operation\": \"update\", \"updateFields\": {\"content\": \"This post was created using the n8n workflow.\"}}, \"name\": \"Wordpress1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wordpress\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [970, 260]}], \"connections\": {\"Wordpress\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wordpress1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wordpress\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down how I'd approach building this n8n workflow based on the user's request and the provided JSON.\n\nFirst, I always start by looking at the core requirement: \"upon manual execution.\" That tells me immediately what my starting point, or \"trigger,\" for this workflow needs to be. I need something that I can explicitly click to kick off the process.\n\nSo, the very first node I'd reach for is the **Manual Trigger** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is 1.\n* Why this node? It's perfectly suited for scenarios where a workflow isn't triggered by an external event (like a webhook or a schedule) but rather by a user initiating it directly within the n8n interface. It just sits there, waiting for someone to click \"Execute Workflow.\" For this specific prompt, it's the ideal choice. There are no special parameters to configure for a basic manual trigger, it just does its job of starting the flow.\n\nNext, the prompt states: \"first creates a new WordPress post titled 'created from n8n'.\" This clearly indicates an interaction with WordPress, and the action is \"create.\"\n\nSo, connected directly to my \"On clicking 'execute'\" manual trigger, I'd add a **WordPress** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.wordpress`, and the `typeVersion` is 1.\n* Why this node? n8n has dedicated nodes for interacting with popular services, and WordPress is one of them. This node provides all the necessary operations like creating, updating, getting, or deleting posts, pages, and other WordPress entities.\n* Configuring this node:\n * The prompt specifies the title: \"created from n8n\". So, I'd set the `title` parameter to exactly that string.\n * The default `operation` for a WordPress node is often \"create post,\" which is exactly what I need here, so I wouldn't need to explicitly change it if that's the default, but I'd ensure it's set to 'create'.\n * For credentials, I would need to select or set up a WordPress API credential that allows n8n to connect to my WordPress site. This would involve providing the site's URL and authentication details, but those are sensitive and would be configured separately in n8n's credentials section. I'd just select the appropriate \"wordpress\" credential.\n* Data flow: This is an important consideration. When this WordPress node successfully creates a post, it will output data about that newly created post, including its unique ID. This ID is going to be crucial for the *next* step.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies: \"Immediately after, it should update the content of that same post to 'This post was created using the n8n workflow'.\" The key phrases here are \"update\" and \"that same post.\" This tells me I need another WordPress node, but this time for an update operation, and it needs to know *which* post to update.\n\nSo, flowing directly from my first \"Wordpress\" node, I'd add a second **WordPress** node.\n* Its type is also `n8n-nodes-base.wordpress`, and the `typeVersion` is 1. It's the same node type because I'm still interacting with WordPress, just performing a different operation.\n* Why another WordPress node? Because I'm performing a distinct action (update) that relies on the output of the previous action (create).\n* Configuring this node:\n * First, I need to ensure the `operation` parameter is set to \"update.\"\n * Now, how do I specify \"that same post\"? This is where the data from the previous node comes in. The first WordPress node, when it created the post, outputted its ID. So, for the `postId` parameter in this second node, I'd use an expression to pull that ID dynamically. The expression would look something like `={{$node[\"Wordpress\"].json[\"id\"]}}`. This tells n8n to look at the data output by the node named \"Wordpress\" (which was my first WordPress node), find its JSON output, and then specifically extract the `id` field. This ensures I'm targeting the exact post that was just created.\n * Then, I need to specify what to update. The prompt says \"update the content...\". So, under `updateFields`, I'd set the `content` field to the string \"This post was created using the n8n workflow.\".\n * Again, this node would use the same WordPress API credentials as the first one, allowing it to interact with the same WordPress site.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow would start manually, create the post, grab its ID, and then immediately use that ID to update the post's content. The connections are sequential: Trigger -> Create Post -> Update Post. This setup directly addresses all parts of the user's prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'My workflow 8' that starts with an 'n8n Form Trigger' node configured with the title 'test' and a single field labeled 'test', providing example output data containing two items (`name: \"First item\", code: 1` and `name: \"Second item\", code: 2`). This form trigger node then connects to a 'Switch' node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow 8\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a\", \"formTitle\": \"test\", \"formFields\": {\"values\": [{\"fieldLabel\": \"test\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"n8n Form Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [620, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.switch\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [800, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"n8n Form Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed.\n\nFirst off, looking at the overall goal, the user wants an inactive workflow named 'My workflow 8'. So, the very first thing I'd do is set up the basic workflow properties: give it the name \"My workflow 8\" and ensure that the 'active' flag is set to `false`. This way, it won't start running prematurely while I'm still building it out.\n\nNow, for the actual logic. The prompt states it needs to start with an 'n8n Form Trigger' node. This immediately tells me what my initial node needs to be. An 'n8n Form Trigger' is perfect because it's designed to expose a web form that users can fill out, and once submitted, it kicks off the workflow. It's an ideal entry point for external interaction.\n\nSo, I'll drag and drop an 'n8n Form Trigger' node onto the canvas. Looking at its configuration, it's of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 2`.\n\nNext, I need to configure this form trigger. The prompt specifies a title of 'test' and a single field labeled 'test'. So, in the node's parameters, I'd set `formTitle` to \"test\". For the `formFields`, I'll add a new field and set its `fieldLabel` to \"test\". There's also a `path` parameter here, which is essentially a unique identifier for the form's URL. n8n typically generates this automatically, like `d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a` in this case, to ensure the form has a distinct endpoint. This is crucial for accessibility.\n\nA really interesting part of this node's setup, and quite useful for design and testing, is the `pinData`. This allows me to define example output data directly within the workflow JSON for the trigger node. The prompt asks for two specific items: `{name: \"First item\", code: 1}` and `{name: \"Second item\", code: 2}`. So, I'd define this `pinData` on the 'n8n Form Trigger' node. This means when I'm testing or building out the subsequent nodes, I can easily simulate these two data items coming from the form submission without actually having to submit the form every time. It's a great way to ensure the downstream logic works as expected with the specified input.\n\nAlright, the form trigger is set up. What's next? The prompt says this form trigger node then connects to a 'Switch' node.\n\nA 'Switch' node is fundamentally used for conditional routing. It takes incoming data and, based on specified conditions, directs it to different output branches. This is incredibly useful for creating different paths in a workflow depending on the values of the data. For instance, if the form submission contained different types of requests, I might use a Switch node to route them to different handling processes.\n\nSo, I'll add a 'Switch' node to the canvas. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.switch` and `typeVersion: 2`. At this point, the parameters for the 'Switch' node itself (`parameters: {}`) are empty. This is perfectly fine during initial design. It means it's ready to be configured with rules later on, based on what specific conditions I want to evaluate from the incoming form data. For now, it's just a placeholder for future logic that will branch the workflow.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The prompt implies a direct flow, so I'll connect the 'n8n Form Trigger' node's primary output (labeled 'main') to the 'Switch' node's primary input (also labeled 'main'). This ensures that any data emitted by the form trigger \u2013 which in a real scenario would be the submitted form data, and for our design, is the `pinData` we defined \u2013 is passed directly as input to the 'Switch' node for processing. This completes the basic structure as outlined in the prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object for a workflow configuration.

I'm looking at the prompt, and it seems like we need to set up a very foundational workflow, almost like a template, with specific metadata and administrative details. There aren't any actual processing steps yet, which is interesting. It's more about defining the workflow's identity and state.\n\nFirst things first, I need to define the overall workflow container. The prompt asks for a JSON object for a workflow configuration, so I'll start with the top-level structure.\n\nI see `active` is set to `false`. This tells me that right out of the gate, this workflow shouldn't be running automatically. It's being set up, but it's not ready to be deployed or triggered just yet. That makes perfect sense for a new configuration like this; you wouldn't want it to start doing things until all the nodes and connections are in place and properly tested. So, `active: false` is a good starting point.\n\nNext, I'm looking at `triggerCount`. It's `0`. This reinforces the idea that the workflow hasn't been run at all. It's a fresh slate. If it were a workflow that had been active and triggered, this count would reflect that, but for a new setup, `0` is exactly what I'd expect.\n\nThe `name` is clearly specified as 'CRAWL dataa QUAN LEN'. This is important for human readability and identification within the workflow management system. Giving it a descriptive name like this helps locate it quickly amongst many other workflows.\n\nThen there are the unique identifiers: `id` and `versionId`. The prompt provides specific values: `id: \"f4lL0OCun8opuxQ\"` and `versionId: \"8dee12d6-4b1b-476e-8951-b6bcd12190d0\"`. These are crucial. The `id` uniquely identifies *this specific workflow* across the system. The `versionId` is equally important, allowing us to track specific iterations or snapshots of the workflow's structure. If we ever make changes and save new versions, this `versionId` would change, providing a clear audit trail. So, I'll put those in exactly as specified.\n\nThe timestamps `createdAt` and `updatedAt` are next, and they're both the exact same value: '2025-03-28T03:54:16.496Z'. This makes sense for a newly created workflow where no modifications have been made yet since its inception. The creation time and the last update time are effectively the same moment, as it's just been defined.\n\nNow, let's consider the core functionality aspects. The prompt specifies \"all other array\/object fields empty\".\nThis means `connections` will be an empty object `{}`. This is perfectly normal because, at this stage, we haven't defined any nodes that would connect to each other. No connections mean no data flow paths yet.\nSimilarly, `nodes` will be an empty array `[]`. This is the most telling part. It means this workflow, as configured, doesn't actually *do* anything yet. It's a placeholder, a container ready to have its logic built out. If this were a functional workflow, this array would be populated with various nodes like HTTP Request nodes, Spreadsheet File nodes, or even basic Set nodes. But for now, it's just an empty shell.\n`pinData` will also be an empty object `{}`. This is typically used for visual pinning of notes or specific data points on the canvas, but since there are no nodes, there's nothing to pin.\n`tags` will be an empty array `[]`. Tags are useful for categorization and searching, but for a brand new workflow that hasn't been categorized yet, an empty array is the default and expected state.\n\nThe prompt also states that `meta` and `staticData` should be `null`.\n`meta` being `null` means there's no custom metadata attached to the workflow itself. Sometimes, you might want to store additional, non-operational information here, like an owner's email or a project code, but for this basic configuration, it's not needed.\n`staticData` also being `null` means there's no predefined static data that the workflow should access globally. This field could be used to inject constant values across the workflow, but again, for this initial setup, it's absent.\n\nFinally, the `settings` object. The prompt explicitly says to set `settings` to `{'executionOrder': 'v1'}`.\nThe `settings` object is where we configure how the workflow behaves fundamentally. `executionOrder` dictates how nodes are processed, especially when there are multiple branches or complex logic. `v1` typically refers to a standard, sequential execution model, or whatever the default or primary execution strategy is for the system. It's a good default to start with, ensuring predictable flow as we eventually add nodes. If we were building a more advanced workflow, we might consider other execution orders, but `v1` is a solid, safe choice for a new, empty workflow.\n\nSo, to summarize, this workflow is configured as a non-active, never-run, empty shell, identified by specific IDs and timestamps, with a clear name and a standard execution setting. It's ready to be populated with actual logic." } { "prompt": "Generate an Airtable node at position [380, 180].

The user's request is quite specific: they want an Airtable node, positioned precisely, and with very particular configurations for its base and table inputs, including validation.\n\nMy first thought, naturally, is to grab the core node mentioned: an Airtable node. This is clearly the right tool for anything involving Airtable. I'll search for \"Airtable\" in the node list, and I'd expect to find `n8n-nodes-base.airtable`. The JSON tells me it's `typeVersion: 1`. That's good to note; sometimes newer versions might have additional features or slightly different parameter structures, but version 1 is what's specified, so I'll work with that. If I were free to choose, I might consider if a later version offers more robust URL handling, but I need to stick to the provided blueprint.\n\nNext, the prompt specifies the exact location for this node: `[380, 180]`. So, once I've added the Airtable node to the canvas, I'll drag it to that precise position. This helps keep the workflow organized and predictable, especially in larger setups.\n\nNow, for the configuration of this Airtable node. The user specifically mentions two parameters: 'application' (which typically refers to the Airtable base) and 'table'.\n\nLet's tackle the 'application' parameter first. The user wants it to \"accept URL inputs\" and have its \"initial value empty,\" plus \"include specific regular expressions for Airtable base URL validation.\"\n* To accept URL inputs, I'll need to set the `mode` for this field to `\"url\"`. This tells n8n's UI to provide a specific input type geared towards URLs, perhaps with some built-in browser features or validation hints.\n* \"Initial value empty\" is straightforward; I'll set its `value` to `\"\"`. This means when the user first opens the node's settings, this field won't have any pre-filled data.\n* For the validation, the prompt is explicit about a regular expression. I'll need to define `__regex` property for the `application` field. The provided JSON has `\"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. This regex looks for the Airtable domain and then ensures there's an alphanumeric string of at least two characters following it, which typically corresponds to the Base ID in an Airtable URL. This is crucial for guiding the user and preventing malformed inputs. I also see a `__rl: true` property. My intuition tells me `__rl` might stand for \"render link\" or \"real-time link,\" implying that the UI might treat this URL field with some special real-time interaction or visual representation, possibly related to direct linking or validation as the user types.\n\nMoving on to the 'table' parameter. This is very similar to 'application':\n* Again, it needs to \"accept URL inputs,\" so its `mode` will also be `\"url\"`.\n* Its \"initial value\" should also be \"empty,\" so `value: \"\"` it is.\n* And for validation, it also needs a specific regular expression. The JSON provides `\"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. This regex is a bit more detailed than the base one. It expects the Airtable domain, followed by the base ID (as before), and *then* another segment of at least two alphanumeric characters, which would be the Table ID. This ensures the user is providing a complete and correctly formatted URL pointing to a specific table *within* a base. It also has the `__rl: true` property, just like the 'application' field, suggesting similar UI behavior.\n\nFinally, looking at the `connections` object in the JSON, it's empty. This tells me that this Airtable node is a standalone component. It's not connected to any other nodes, either as an input or an output. For a single-node request like this, that's perfectly fine. There's no need to consider how data would flow or what subsequent nodes would process its output, because there are none. The goal was just to generate and configure this specific node.\n\nSo, the process is quite linear for this one: identify the node type, place it, and then meticulously configure its parameters as requested, paying close attention to the data types, initial values, and especially the validation regexes.

When I look at a request like this, I immediately think about the core components: how it starts (the trigger), what kind of processing needs to happen, and what the final output should look like.\n\nThe first thing the prompt mentions is \"triggers every 2 hours.\" This tells me I need an automation trigger that operates on a schedule. Looking at the n8n nodes available, the **Interval node** seems like the perfect fit for this. It's designed specifically for time-based triggers.\n\nSo, I'd start by dragging an **Interval node** onto the canvas. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.interval`, and in this case, we're using `typeVersion: 1`. Once I have it, I need to configure it to trigger every 2 hours. I'd go into its parameters and set the `Unit` to 'hours' and the `Interval` value to '2'. This precisely matches the requirement. I notice there's a note in the provided JSON that says \"It is the 4 hours interval in which this node gets executed,\" but the actual parameter `interval: 2` is what dictates the behavior, so I'll trust the parameter configuration here. This node won't receive any input; it's the starting point, the one that kicks off the whole process.\n\nNext, the prompt says, \"then uses a Function node to add `myVariable = 1` and `myVariable2 = \"this is exciting\"` to the item.\" A **Function node** is ideal for custom JavaScript logic, especially when you need to manipulate or add data to the incoming items. It's very flexible.\n\nSo, I'd connect the main output of my `2 hours Interval` node to the input of a new **Function node**. The type for this node is `n8n-nodes-base.functionItem`, and it's `typeVersion: 1`. Once connected, the Interval node will pass an empty item (or a simple item with execution data) to this Function node every two hours. Inside the Function node, I'd need to write the JavaScript code to achieve the required data manipulation. The goal is to add `myVariable` and `myVariable2` to each item. The standard way to do this in an n8n Function node is to access the `item` object and add properties to it. So, the code would look like this:\n\n```javascript\nitem.myVariable = 1;\nitem.myVariable2 = \"this is exciting\";\nreturn item;\n```\n\nThis code snippet directly implements the requirement: it takes the `item` that the node receives, adds two new properties (`myVariable` with a numerical value of 1, and `myVariable2` with a string value), and then returns the modified `item`. This ensures that the data is passed along to the next node with these new properties.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies: \"Conclude with a Set node that extracts `myVariable2` from the Function node's output, naming it `data`, and keeps only this new variable.\" This sounds like a job for the **Set node**. The Set node is perfect for reshaping data, adding new fields, or picking specific fields from the previous node's output.\n\nI would then connect the main output of the `FunctionItem` node to the input of this new **Set node**. The type of this node is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and we're using `typeVersion: 1`. In the Set node's parameters, I need to configure two main things. First, I want to extract `myVariable2` and rename it to `data`. I'd use an expression for this. I'd add a new value, specify it as a 'string' type (since `myVariable2` is a string), set its `name` to `data`, and for its `value`, I'd use an expression to reference the output of the `FunctionItem` node: `={{$node[\"FunctionItem\"].data[\"myVariable2\"]}}`. This tells the Set node to look at the data output from the node named \"FunctionItem\" and specifically pick the value of the `myVariable2` field.\n\nThe second part of the requirement for the Set node is to \"keep only this new variable.\" The Set node has a handy `Keep Only Set` parameter for exactly this purpose. I would toggle this parameter to `true`. When enabled, the Set node will discard all other fields that came from the previous node and only output the fields that were explicitly set within itself (in this case, just `data`). This ensures the workflow ends with a clean output containing only the desired variable, fulfilling the final part of the prompt.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow design based on the given requirements and the provided JSON." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named 'My workflow 8'. It should begin with an 'n8n Form Trigger' node at position [620, 580], configured with a 'test' form title, a 'test' field, and webhook ID `d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a`, and include two test items: `{\"name\": \"First item\", \"code\": 1}` and `{\"name\": \"Second item\", \"code\": 2}`. Connect this trigger to a 'Switch' node at position [800, 580].", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow 8\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a\", \"formTitle\": \"test\", \"formFields\": {\"values\": [{\"fieldLabel\": \"test\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"n8n Form Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [620, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.switch\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [800, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"n8n Form Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Switch\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow. The first thing I see is that we need to create an inactive workflow named 'My workflow 8'. So, I'll set the overall workflow's name to \"My workflow 8\" and ensure its 'active' status is set to `false`. That's important to prevent it from running until it's fully ready.\n\nNow, looking at the requirements for the nodes within this workflow, it's clear we need a trigger node to kick things off. The prompt specifically asks for an 'n8n Form Trigger' node. This is a great choice for initiating workflows based on form submissions or direct webhook calls, which seems to be the intent here given the webhook ID.\n\nSo, I'll place the 'n8n Form Trigger' node. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger`, and for its version, I'll use `2` as indicated in the provided structure. This particular type is suitable because it's designed to receive external data, essentially acting as an entry point for the workflow. If we were using an older typeVersion, some parameters or behaviors might be slightly different, but typeVersion 2 is current and robust.\n\nNext, I need to configure this trigger. The prompt specifies its position on the canvas at `[620, 580]`, so I'll make sure to place it there visually. For its internal settings, it needs a `formTitle` of \"test\" and a specific `formFields` configuration that includes a field labeled \"test\". This defines what the form or webhook payload is expected to look like. Crucially, the webhook ID, `d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a`, needs to be set. This ID makes the webhook unique and ensures that external calls hit the correct workflow. It's reflected in both the `path` parameter and the `webhookId` property of the node. This setup ensures that when someone submits the form or sends data to this specific webhook URL, the workflow will be activated (if it were active, of course).\n\nThe prompt also mentions two test items: `{\"name\": \"First item\", \"code\": 1}` and `{\"name\": \"Second item\", \"code\": 2}`. This isn't a configuration *of* the node itself, but rather example data that the trigger node would output. In a real scenario, this would be the actual data submitted through the form or webhook. This `pinData` helps simulate a successful trigger for testing purposes.\n\nAfter the trigger, the prompt states that it should connect to a 'Switch' node. A 'Switch' node is excellent for conditional routing. It allows you to inspect incoming data and direct it down different paths based on conditions you define. Even though the prompt doesn't specify any conditions yet, its inclusion suggests that future logic might depend on values from the form submission.\n\nSo, I'll add the 'Switch' node. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.switch`, and its typeVersion is `2`. Its position on the canvas is `[800, 580]`. For now, its `parameters` are empty, meaning no specific conditions are set up, but it's ready to be configured later to evaluate, for example, the `name` or `code` from the incoming form data.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The requirement is to connect the 'n8n Form Trigger' to the 'Switch' node. This means the `main` output of the 'n8n Form Trigger' will flow into the `main` input of the 'Switch' node. This ensures that any data received by the form trigger is passed directly to the switch node for processing. That completes the basic structure based on the prompt." } { "prompt": "Design an n8n workflow that starts with a Schedule Trigger node named 'A'. Connect 'A' to a Set node named 'B' that includes a blank string assignment, then connect 'B' to another Set node named 'C'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"A\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"3d8f0810-84f0-41ce-a81b-0e7f04fd88cb\", \"name\": \"\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"B\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"C\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"A\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"B\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"B\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"C\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this n8n workflow from the ground up, just as if I were in the editor building it.\n\nFirst things first, I need a starting point for the workflow. The user prompt clearly states that it \"starts with a Schedule Trigger node named 'A'\". This is a fundamental type of trigger node in n8n, used when you want a workflow to run automatically at a specific time or on a recurring interval. It's perfect for initiating a workflow without manual intervention or an external event.\n\nSo, I'd drag a **Schedule Trigger** node onto the canvas. Looking at the provided JSON, this node is defined as having a `type` of \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\" and a `typeVersion` of 1.2. The `typeVersion` is good to note; it tells me which version of the node's capabilities I'm working with, which can sometimes influence available parameters or behavior, though for a Schedule Trigger, it's fairly consistent across minor versions. I'll make sure to name this node \"A\" as requested by the prompt.\n\nNow, regarding its configuration, the JSON shows its `parameters` as `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This is the default setup for a Schedule Trigger. It means it's set to operate based on an interval, but no specific frequency (like \"every 5 minutes\" or \"once a day\") has been defined yet. For the purpose of just building the structure, this default is perfectly fine. A user would later configure the exact schedule, like setting it to run daily at a certain time or every few hours. Visually, I'd place it at the top-left, say at position [0, 0], to be the origin of my workflow.\n\nNext, the prompt states, \"Connect 'A' to a Set node named 'B' that includes a blank string assignment.\" This tells me my next step is to add a **Set** node. Set nodes are incredibly useful for manipulating data as it flows through the workflow. They allow you to add new fields, modify existing ones, or remove fields from the incoming data. In this case, we're adding a new piece of data.\n\nI'd drag a **Set** node onto the canvas. According to the JSON, its `type` is \"n8n-nodes-base.set\" and its `typeVersion` is 3.4. This is a common and robust version for the Set node. I'll name it \"B\" as required. I'd then visually connect the main output of node 'A' to the main input of node 'B'. This ensures that when 'A' triggers, the execution flow and any data it might generate (even if it's just a basic item) pass directly into 'B'. I'd place it to the right of node 'A', perhaps at position [220, 0], to maintain a clean flow.\n\nNow for the specific configuration of node 'B'. The prompt says it \"includes a blank string assignment.\" Looking at the JSON's `parameters` for node 'B', I see `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"3d8f0810-84f0-41ce-a81b-0e7f04fd88cb\", \"name\": \"\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}`. This is quite precise. It means within the Set node, I'd add an \"Assignment.\" For this assignment, the `name` of the field is an empty string, the `value` is also an empty string, and its `type` is explicitly set to \"string.\" While typically you'd assign a value to a named property (e.g., `{\"myBlankField\": \"\"}`), this configuration, with an empty string as the property name itself, directly implements \"a blank string assignment\" as per the JSON. It's perhaps a unique way to represent it, essentially introducing an unnamed, empty string value into the item.\n\nFinally, the prompt says, \"then connect 'B' to another Set node named 'C'.\" So, my last step in this workflow's structure is another **Set** node.\n\nAgain, I'd drag another **Set** node onto the canvas. The JSON confirms it's also a \"n8n-nodes-base.set\" with `typeVersion` 3.4, which is consistent. I'll name this node \"C\". I'll then connect the main output of node 'B' to the main input of node 'C', continuing the sequential flow of data. I'd position it to the right of node 'B', like at [440, 0].\n\nFor node 'C's configuration, the JSON shows its `parameters` as just `{\"options\": {}}`. This means it's an empty Set node; no specific assignments are configured within it. It acts as a passthrough for data from node 'B'. This could be a placeholder, perhaps for future data transformations, or simply to complete the specified sequence of nodes. It receives the item (which now includes the blank string assignment from 'B') and passes it along without further modification.\n\nAnd that completes the design of this n8n workflow as per the given instructions and JSON structure. It's a simple, sequential flow demonstrating trigger, data modification, and passthrough stages." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that manually starts, downloads an image from `https:\/\/n8n.io\/n8n-logo.png` as a file, then uploads it to `\/upload\/n8n_logo.png` on an FTP server, and finally lists the contents of the `\/upload\/` directory on that same FTP server.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 350]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"\/upload\/n8n_logo.png\", \"operation\": \"upload\"}, \"name\": \"FTP\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.ftp\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 350]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"\/upload\/\", \"operation\": \"list\"}, \"name\": \"FTP1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.ftp\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [850, 350]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/n8n.io\/n8n-logo.png\", \"options\": {}, \"responseFormat\": \"file\"}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 350]}], \"connections\": {\"FTP\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"FTP1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"FTP\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's design this workflow step by step, imagining I'm building it from the ground up based on the requirements.\n\nFirst, I need to consider the very beginning of the workflow: \"manually starts.\" This immediately tells me I'll need a trigger node that can be initiated by a user. The best fit for this is the **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, it's named \"On clicking 'execute',\" which is perfect. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion` is 1. This node is straightforward; it doesn't really have parameters to configure beyond its basic function. It simply starts the workflow when a user clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button or a similar manual trigger.\n\nNext, the prompt states \"downloads an image from `https:\/\/n8n.io\/n8n-logo.png` as a file.\" For downloading anything from a URL, an **HTTP Request** node is the go-to. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`, `typeVersion` 1. I'd connect the `On clicking 'execute'` node's `main` output to this `HTTP Request` node's `main` input. This ensures that once the workflow starts, the first action is to make this HTTP request.\nNow, how to configure this HTTP Request node? The crucial part is getting the image *as a file*. So, I'd set the `url` parameter to the image's URL. And critically, I need to make sure the `responseFormat` is set to `file`. This tells n8n to treat the response body not as text or JSON, but as a binary file, which is exactly what an image is. The `options` parameter would typically be left at default unless there were specific headers, authentication, or timeouts needed, but for a simple GET, defaults usually suffice.\n\nAfter downloading the image, the workflow needs to \"upload it to `\/upload\/n8n_logo.png` on an FTP server.\" This clearly calls for an **FTP** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.ftp`, `typeVersion` 1. I'd connect the `HTTP Request` node's `main` output to this FTP node's `main` input. This way, the file output from the HTTP request will be passed directly as input to the FTP node.\nFor the FTP node's configuration, the `operation` needs to be `upload`. And the `path` parameter would be set to `\/upload\/n8n_logo.png`, as specified. This tells the node where on the FTP server the uploaded file should reside and what its name should be. Importantly, this node requires credentials to connect to the FTP server. I'd set the `credentials` property to use an existing FTP credential, let's call it `ftp_creds` as indicated in the JSON. This credential would abstract away the server address, username, and password. The file data itself is passed implicitly from the previous node; the FTP node is smart enough to pick up a file from the incoming item.\n\nFinally, the prompt asks to \"list the contents of the `\/upload\/` directory on that same FTP server.\" This is another operation on an FTP server, so another **FTP** node is required. I'd name it something like \"FTP1\" to distinguish it, though the JSON just calls it \"FTP1\". It's also of type `n8n-nodes-base.ftp`, `typeVersion` 1. This node should execute *after* the upload is complete, so I'd connect the *first* FTP node's `main` output to this *second* FTP node's `main` input.\nFor its configuration, the `operation` parameter would be set to `list`. The `path` parameter would be set to `\/upload\/` to specify which directory to list. Again, it needs the same FTP credentials, `ftp_creds`, to connect to the server. This node won't receive a file as input like the previous one did; its purpose is to output a list of files.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow chain. Each node handles a specific part of the requirement, passing its output as input to the next, until the final result of the directory listing is achieved." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow named 'GetOnboardingFile Implementing Workflow Agents' that is triggered by a webhook at `\/onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/ImplementingWorkflowAgents`.

The prompt is pretty clear: we need to trigger something with a webhook, grab some content from a Google Doc, and then send that content right back to the original webhook call.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Since the prompt specifically says it's \"triggered by a webhook\", my immediate thought goes to the **Webhook node**. This is the standard way to initiate a workflow based on an incoming HTTP request. I'd definitely choose `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` for its type. For the `typeVersion`, the JSON indicates `2`, which is a common, stable version for this node.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Webhook node? The prompt specifies the exact path: `\/onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/ImplementingWorkflowAgents`. So, I'd set the `path` parameter to that string. This ensures the workflow only triggers when a request hits that specific endpoint.\n\nAnother crucial setting for the Webhook node is its `responseMode`. Since we're not just going to respond immediately but rather fetch data first and *then* respond, I need to make sure the webhook connection stays open until the final content is ready. This means `responseNode` is the correct choice here. It signals that a subsequent node in the workflow will handle the actual HTTP response, giving us the flexibility to perform operations in between.\n\nOkay, so the webhook is set up. What's next? The prompt says \"It should then retrieve the content from the Google Docs URL\". This tells me I need a node that can interact with Google Docs. The most direct tool for this is the **Google Docs node**. So, I'd bring in `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion: 2`.\n\nHow does this Google Docs node connect? It naturally follows the Webhook node. Once the webhook triggers, the workflow needs to immediately proceed to fetching the document. So, the output of the Webhook node will connect as the input to the Google Docs node.\n\nFor configuring the Google Docs node, the primary operation required is to \"get\" content, not create or update, so the `operation` parameter would be set to `get`. Then, of course, there's the `documentURL` parameter, where the specific URL of the Google Doc would be provided. To actually access a Google Doc, though, we'd also need proper authentication. This means a Google Docs OAuth2 API credential would need to be set up and linked to this node, ensuring it has the necessary permissions to read the document.\n\nSo, at this point, the workflow has received a request, and it's fetching the document content. The next logical step, and the final requirement from the prompt, is to \"respond to the original webhook with the document's content.\" This requires a dedicated node for sending a response back to the trigger. The **Respond to Webhook node** is perfect for this. Its type would be `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and the JSON shows `typeVersion: 1.1`.\n\nThis Respond to Webhook node obviously needs to come *after* the Google Docs node, as it relies on the content retrieved by the Google Docs node. So, the connection would be from the Google Docs node's output to the Respond to Webhook node's input.\n\nNow, to configure the Respond to Webhook node: The prompt implies just sending the content of the document. So, I'd set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`. This tells the node to send a plain text response. And for the actual `responseBody`, I need to make sure I'm pulling the right data from the previous node. Assuming the Google Docs node outputs the document's content into a field named `content` (which is a common pattern for content nodes), I would use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression dynamically takes the `content` field from the data passed by the previous node (the Google Docs node) and uses it as the body of the webhook response.\n\nAnd that's it. The flow seems complete: Webhook triggers, Google Docs fetches, and Respond to Webhook sends it all back. Simple, direct, and meets all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts, sets a text value of \"Hello from n8n!\", and then posts this as a status to the Mastodon instance `https:\/\/mastodon.example`.

Every n8n workflow needs something to kick it off.\nSo, I'll start by adding a **Start node**. This is a fundamental building block.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.start`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This is the most basic way to initiate a workflow. It doesn't require any specific configuration for our needs; it simply provides a starting signal. I'll position it at the far left of my canvas, say at `[455, 335]`, to visually represent the beginning.\n\nNext, the prompt states that we need to \"set a text value of 'Hello from n8n!'\". This means I need a way to define or store a piece of data within the workflow that can then be passed to subsequent nodes.\nFor this, a **Set node** is the ideal choice.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `2`\n* **Reasoning:** The `Set` node is perfect for creating custom data fields or overwriting existing ones. In this case, I want to create a new field specifically for our message.\n* **Configuration:**\n * I'll configure it to set a `string` value.\n * The `name` of this value will be \"text\", which is descriptive and common for message content.\n * The `value` itself will be \"Hello from n8n!\", exactly as specified in the prompt.\n * I'll also set `keepOnlySet` to `true`. This is a good practice because it ensures that only the data I explicitly define in this `Set` node (our \"text\" value) is passed downstream, keeping the data flow clean and predictable. Any other potential, unwanted data from previous nodes would be discarded.\n* **Connection:** This `Set` node logically follows the `Start` node. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the `Start` node to the `main` input of this `Set` node. I'll place it to the right of the Start node, around `[660, 335]`.\n\nFinally, the core action is to \"post this as a status to the Mastodon instance `https:\/\/mastodon.example`\". This clearly requires a node that can interact with the Mastodon API.\nSo, I'll add a **Mastodon node**.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-mastodon`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node is specifically designed for Mastodon interactions, allowing me to easily create posts, manage statuses, and so on.\n* **Configuration:**\n * For the `resource` option, I need to select \"status\" because we are posting a status update.\n * For the `operation`, I'll choose \"create\" as we are creating a new status.\n * The `URL` for the Mastodon instance is explicitly given as `https:\/\/mastodon.example`. I'll directly input this URL into the node's configuration.\n * For the `text` field, the prompt says to post \"this\" (referring to the text set in the previous node). Looking at the blueprint, the text \"Hello from n8n!\" is directly specified here. While I *could* have referenced the output from the `Set` node using an expression like `{{ $node[\"Set\"].json.text }}`, for a static message like this, directly setting it here also works. If the message were dynamic, passing it from the `Set` node would be more flexible. For this particular instance, hardcoding it here as \"Hello from n8n!\" fulfills the requirement.\n * I would also need to configure credentials for the Mastodon account that will post the status. The specific credential details aren't part of the JSON for security reasons, but a Mastodon OAuth2 credential would typically be selected here to authenticate with the instance.\n* **Connection:** This `Mastodon` node should receive the data from the `Set` node. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the `Set` node to the `main` input of the `Mastodon` node. I'll position it to the right of the Set node, at `[885, 335]`.\n\nAfter setting up the nodes and connections, I need to address the overall workflow settings mentioned in the prompt.\n* **Name:** The workflow should have a descriptive name. \"Mastodon Example Workflow\" seems appropriate, as indicated in the blueprint.\n* **Tags:** The prompt asks to \"Tag the workflow as 'example'\". So, I'll add a tag with the name \"example\" to the workflow's settings. A color like `#55ff55` is often assigned automatically or chosen visually for tags in the n8n UI, making them easy to identify.\n* **Initial Status:** The prompt specifically states to \"ensure it is initially inactive\". Therefore, I'll set the `active` property of the entire workflow to `false`. This means it won't run automatically until manually activated.\n* **Execution Order:** The `settings.executionOrder` is `v1`, which is the standard default for how nodes are processed.\n\nThat completes the design of the workflow." } { "prompt": "Design an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, reads a list of contacts from Airtable and sends a personalized SMS via Twilio to each one, using the 'Number' and 'Name' fields from Airtable.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Send SMS to numbers stored in Airtable with Twilio\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"table\": \"\", \"operation\": \"list\", \"application\": \"\", \"additionalOptions\": {}}, \"name\": \"Airtable\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.airtable\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"to\": \"={{$node[\\\"Airtable\\\"].json[\\\"fields\\\"][\\\"Number\\\"]}}\", \"from\": \"\", \"message\": \"=Hello, {{$node[\\\"Airtable\\\"].json[\\\"fields\\\"][\\\"Name\\\"]}}!\\nSending this SMS from n8n!\"}, \"name\": \"Twilio\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.twilio\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Twilio\": {\"main\": [[]]}, \"Airtable\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Twilio\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Airtable\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think about how to build this workflow from scratch, step by step, based on the user's request and the provided structure. The goal is to manually trigger a workflow that fetches contacts from Airtable and sends personalized SMS messages via Twilio.\n\nFirst things first, how does this workflow even start? The user specified \"when manually triggered.\" That immediately tells me I need a node that allows for a manual kick-off. Looking at the n8n nodes, the obvious choice here is the \"Manual Trigger\" node.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding the **Manual Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is 1. This node is perfect because it simply provides an entry point to the workflow that I can activate with a click from the n8n interface. It doesn't need any special configuration parameters; its purpose is purely to initiate the flow. I'd place it somewhere logical to begin the visual flow, like at `[250, 300]` on the canvas.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, what's the very next thing we need to do? The prompt states \"reads a list of contacts from Airtable.\" So, naturally, the next step involves interacting with Airtable to get that data.\n\nFor this, I'll add an **Airtable** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.airtable`, and its `typeVersion` is 1. This node is specifically designed to work with Airtable. I'll connect it directly to the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (Manual Trigger) node. This connection means that once the manual trigger fires, the Airtable node will be activated. I'd place it to the right of the trigger, perhaps at `[450, 300]`, to maintain a left-to-right flow.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Airtable node? The goal is to \"read a list of contacts.\" So, the `operation` parameter should definitely be set to `list`. This will tell the node to fetch multiple records. I'd then need to specify which `table` in Airtable to read from and which `application` (which is Airtable's term for a base) it belongs to. These would be specific values unique to the user's Airtable setup. Crucially, the node will also require `credentials`, an `airtableApi` key, which would be securely configured in n8n's credentials system, not directly in the workflow JSON. I don't need to worry about additional options for now, as the primary goal is just to list records.\n\nWith the contacts retrieved from Airtable, the final step, according to the prompt, is to \"send a personalized SMS via Twilio to each one, using the 'Number' and 'Name' fields from Airtable.\" This implies that for every contact listed by Airtable, we need to send an SMS.\n\nThis leads me to add the **Twilio** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.twilio`, and its `typeVersion` is 1. This node is perfect for sending SMS messages. I'll connect the Airtable node's `main` output to the Twilio node's `main` input. The key here is that the Airtable node, when listing records, will output one item for each record it finds. When connected this way, the Twilio node will then execute once *for each item* it receives from Airtable. This is crucial for sending a personalized message to *each* contact. I'd place it further to the right, at `[650, 300]`.\n\nNow, for the Twilio node's configuration. It needs to know who to send the SMS *to* and what the *message* should say.\nThe `to` field needs to be the contact's phone number. Since this number comes from Airtable, I'll need to use an expression to dynamically pull that data from the incoming item. The prompt specifies \"using the 'Number' field from Airtable.\" So, I'd use an expression like `={{$node[\"Airtable\"].json[\"fields\"][\"Number\"]}}`. This expression tells n8n to look at the data coming from the \"Airtable\" node, access the `json` object (which contains the actual record data), then specifically look inside the `fields` object, and retrieve the value associated with the key \"Number\".\n\nSimilarly, for the `message` field, it needs to be personalized with the contact's name. The prompt says \"using the 'Name' field from Airtable.\" So, a message like `=Hello, {{$node[\"Airtable\"].json[\"fields\"][\"Name\"]}}!\\nSending this SMS from n8n!` would work perfectly. This dynamically inserts the \"Name\" field from the Airtable record into the message.\n\nThe Twilio node will also require a `from` number, which would be a valid Twilio phone number, and `credentials` for `twilioApi`, which would be securely configured in n8n.\n\nSo, the connections are:\n- \"On clicking 'execute'\" connects to \"Airtable\".\n- \"Airtable\" connects to \"Twilio\".\n\nThis setup ensures that when I manually trigger the workflow, it fetches all contacts from Airtable, and for each contact it finds, it then proceeds to send a personalized SMS via Twilio using the extracted 'Number' and 'Name' fields. It feels like a complete and logical flow for the user's request." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive workflow that sends a Gmail email to `kunalnarware1@gmail.com` with the subject 'Welcome ; Today's Quote is-' and the body 'The only way to do great work is to love what you do.' \u2013 Steve Jobs, whenever it is manually triggered.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Create a simple workflow that sends a welcome email when triggered manually.\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [-560, -40]}, {\"parameters\": {\"sendTo\": \"kunalnarware1@gmail.com\", \"subject\": \"Welcome ; Today's Quote is-\", \"emailType\": \"text\", \"message\": \"\\\"The only way to do great work is to love what you do.\\\" \\u2013 Steve Jobs\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 2.1, \"position\": [-340, -40]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this workflow from the ground up, keeping the user's request in mind: \"Generate an inactive workflow that sends a Gmail email to `kunalnarware1@gmail.com` with the subject 'Welcome ; Today's Quote is-' and the body 'The only way to do great work is to love what you do.' \u2013 Steve Jobs, whenever it is manually triggered.\"\n\nThe first thing I need to figure out is how this workflow is going to *start*. The prompt is very clear: \"whenever it is manually triggered.\" So, I definitely need a trigger node that allows for a manual initiation.\n\nLooking at the n8n nodes, the `manualTrigger` node is the perfect fit for this. It's designed specifically for workflows that you want to kick off by simply clicking a button in the n8n interface. I'll add that one first.\n\n**Node 1: Trigger - `manualTrigger` (typeVersion: 1)**\n* **Why this node?** As I just thought, the `manualTrigger` node is chosen because the requirement is for the workflow to be \"manually triggered.\" It serves as the starting point, waiting for a user to explicitly initiate it. This is a very straightforward node, and `typeVersion: 1` indicates a stable, foundational version, which is perfectly suitable.\n* **Configuration:** This node doesn't require any specific parameters to configure. Its job is simply to output an item when activated, signaling the start of the workflow. So, the `parameters` block for this node is empty, as seen in the JSON, which makes sense. I'll place it logically at the beginning of the workflow canvas, typically on the far left.\n\nNow that I have the trigger, the next step is to perform the actual action: \"sends a Gmail email.\" This immediately tells me I'll need an email sending node, and specifically one that integrates with Gmail.\n\n**Node 2: Action - `Gmail` (typeVersion: 2.1)**\n* **Why this node?** The prompt explicitly states \"sends a Gmail email.\" The `Gmail` node in n8n is purpose-built for interacting with Gmail services, including sending emails. It's the most direct and appropriate choice for this task. The `typeVersion: 2.1` indicates it's a relatively recent version of the node, which is generally good as it might include bug fixes or minor enhancements, though for simple email sending, older versions would likely also work.\n* **Connection:** This `Gmail` node needs to execute *after* the `manualTrigger` has been activated. So, I'll connect the `manualTrigger`'s `main` output to the `Gmail` node's `main` input. This establishes the flow: trigger then send email.\n* **Configuration - `sendTo`:** The prompt specifies the recipient: \"to `kunalnarware1@gmail.com`.\" So, I need to configure the `sendTo` parameter within the `Gmail` node to this specific email address. This tells Gmail where to deliver the message.\n* **Configuration - `subject`:** The prompt also dictates the subject line: \"with the subject 'Welcome ; Today's Quote is-'\". This value will be directly entered into the `subject` parameter of the `Gmail` node.\n* **Configuration - `emailType`:** For the body content, which is just a simple quote, a plain text email is perfectly sufficient and often preferable to avoid any potential HTML rendering issues across different email clients. The JSON shows `\"emailType\": \"text\"`, which is a sensible choice for this kind of message.\n* **Configuration - `message`:** The body of the email is specified as \"'The only way to do great work is to love what you do.' \u2013 Steve Jobs\". This entire string will be placed into the `message` parameter of the `Gmail` node. This is the content the recipient will see.\n* **Configuration - `credentials`:** To allow the `Gmail` node to actually send an email on behalf of a user, it needs to authenticate with a Gmail account. The JSON shows `gmailOAuth2` credentials being used. This means an existing OAuth2 credential for a Gmail account would be selected or set up here. This credential securely stores the necessary authentication tokens without exposing sensitive details directly in the workflow's parameters.\n\nFinally, a crucial detail from the prompt is \"Generate an *inactive* workflow\". I'll ensure that the overall workflow's `active` property is set to `false`. This means that even after it's designed and saved, it won't run automatically until it's manually activated in the n8n interface.\n\nThat covers all the requirements and how each part of the JSON aligns with the design decisions. The workflow is simple: manually triggered, then sends a pre-defined email via Gmail." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named \"My workflow\" starting with a \"Schedule Trigger\" node, connected sequentially to a \"Set\" node and then a \"Set1\" node.

The prompt clearly states it needs to be named \"My workflow\" and, importantly, it should be inactive to begin with. So, my very first step would be to define those high-level workflow properties: setting `name` to \"My workflow\" and `active` to `false`. This ensures it won't run until explicitly activated later.\n\nNow, for the actual sequence of operations within the workflow. The prompt specifies it must start with a \"Schedule Trigger\" node. This makes perfect sense when you want a workflow to run automatically at predetermined times, like daily, hourly, or weekly. It's the typical entry point for any time-based automation. So, I'd bring in a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`. Looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`, which means we're using a stable, basic version of the schedule node.\n\nFor its configuration, the JSON shows `parameters.rule.interval: [{}]`. This is the simplest possible schedule configuration, essentially an empty interval definition. In n8n, this typically defaults to a daily trigger, meaning the workflow would execute once every day. I'd leave it at this default, as no specific frequency was requested beyond it being a \"Schedule Trigger.\"\n\nA crucial part of the prompt for the \"Schedule Trigger\" is the `pinData`. This is super useful for testing! It's like pre-canning specific input data that the node would normally generate. The prompt wants two example inputs: `[{\"count\": 0, \"with space\": \"!!\", \"with.dot\": \"!!\", \"with\\\"quotes\": \"!!\"}]` and `[{\"count\": 1}]`. So, I'd make sure to include this `pinData` directly within the workflow's top-level definition, specifically associated with the \"Schedule Trigger\" node. This allows for easy testing without having to wait for the actual schedule to fire. It's a great way to simulate different scenarios.\n\nNext, the prompt says the \"Schedule Trigger\" should be \"connected sequentially to a 'Set' node.\" A \"Set\" node, `type: n8n-nodes-base.set`, is incredibly useful when you need to explicitly add new fields to the data flowing through your workflow, or modify existing ones. It's like a data manipulation step. This particular node is `typeVersion: 3.3`. The connection from the \"Schedule Trigger\" would be a standard \"main\" output, feeding into the \"main\" input of this new \"Set\" node. This means whatever data the Schedule Trigger produces (or whatever `pinData` simulates) will flow directly into this Set node.\n\nRegarding the \"Set\" node's configuration, the prompt requires it to \"configure an empty string field named 'other'.\" So, within the Set node's parameters, I'd configure an assignment (`parameters.assignments.assignments`) to create a new field. I'd name it \"other,\" set its `type` to \"string,\" and leave its `value` as an empty string. This ensures that every item passing through this node will have an `other` field, even if it's just an empty placeholder. This can be important for downstream nodes that might expect that field to exist.\n\nFollowing that, the prompt specifies \"and then a 'Set1' node.\" So, another \"Set\" node is needed, named \"Set1.\" This implies a similar purpose: further data manipulation or ensuring data consistency. Again, it would be `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.3`. The connection would naturally flow from the *first* \"Set\" node's main output to the \"Set1\" node's main input. Data would pass sequentially from the trigger, through the first set operation, and then into this second set operation.\n\nJust like the first \"Set\" node, this \"Set1\" node also needs to \"configure an empty string field named 'other'.\" This is interesting; it means both Set nodes are performing the exact same operation regarding the \"other\" field. This could be a way to guarantee the field is present, perhaps after some intermediate steps where it might have been removed or not created, or simply to re-initialize it to an empty string. So, I'd configure its parameters identically to the first \"Set\" node: an assignment for `name: \"other\"`, `value: \"\"`, and `type: \"string\"`. This ensures consistency in the data structure as it progresses.\n\nAnd that would complete the workflow as per the requirements. A clear sequence from a scheduled start, through two data manipulation steps, with specific `pinData` for testing." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named \"[UDIA] Bot de Telegram de errores\" that acts as an echo bot, responding to incoming Telegram messages by sending \"Eco:\" followed by the original message text back to the same chat.", "json": "{\"name\": \"[UDIA] Bot de Telegram de errores\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"updates\": [\"message\"], \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Telegram Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegramTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [-300, -40]}, {\"parameters\": {\"chatId\": \"={{ $json.message.chat.id }}\", \"text\": \"=Eco: {{ $json.message.text }}\", \"additionalFields\": {\"appendAttribution\": false}}, \"name\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegram\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [-80, -40]}], \"connections\": {\"Telegram Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's think through how we'd build this n8n workflow from the ground up, aiming to meet all the requirements.\n\nFirst, I need to understand the core task: an \"echo bot\" for Telegram. This means the workflow needs to do two main things: listen for incoming Telegram messages and then send a response back. Also, it needs to be named `[UDIA] Bot de Telegram de errores` and remain inactive initially.\n\nSo, the very first piece of the puzzle is how to *receive* Telegram messages. For n8n, this immediately points me towards a **trigger node**. There's a dedicated \"Telegram Trigger\" node that's designed exactly for this purpose.\n\n* I'll start by adding a `Telegram Trigger` node. Its type would be `n8n-nodes-base.telegramTrigger`, and looking at the JSON, it's using `typeVersion: 1.1`. This version is perfectly capable of handling incoming Telegram updates.\n* Now, how do I configure this trigger? The goal is to respond to *messages*. So, in its parameters, under \"Updates\", I'd select \"message\". This ensures the workflow only kicks off when a new text message arrives, not for other types of updates like channel posts or user status changes. The JSON confirms this setting with `parameters.updates: [\"message\"]`.\n* For the trigger to actually connect to the Telegram API and listen for messages, it will need credentials. This is where I'd link it to an existing Telegram API credential, which contains the bot token. The JSON shows `credentials.telegramApi` with an ID, which represents a linked credential.\n\nAlright, so now we have a way to receive messages. What's next? The prompt says to \"respond... by sending 'Eco:' followed by the original message text back to the same chat.\" This means I need a node that can *send* messages to Telegram.\n\n* The standard `Telegram` node (not the trigger one) is the correct choice for sending messages. So, I'll add this node and connect its input to the output of the \"Telegram Trigger\" node. The connection flow `Telegram Trigger` (output `main`) to `Telegram` (input `main`, index 0) makes perfect sense, as the data from the trigger needs to feed directly into the sender.\n* This node's type would be `n8n-nodes-base.telegram`, and the JSON shows `typeVersion: 1.2`. This version should certainly have the necessary functionality for sending text messages.\n\nNow for the crucial configuration of this \"Telegram\" sender node:\n\n* **Who should receive the message?** The prompt says \"back to the same chat.\" This is vital for an echo bot. The data that comes out of the \"Telegram Trigger\" node will contain all the details of the incoming message, including the `chat.id` of the chat where the message originated. So, for the `Chat ID` parameter, I'd use an expression to dynamically pull this ID: `={{ $json.message.chat.id }}`. This ensures the response goes to the correct conversation.\n* **What should the message content be?** The prompt dictates \"Eco:\" followed by the original message text. Similarly, the original message text will be available in the data from the trigger, typically at `$json.message.text`. So, for the `Text` parameter, I'd construct the string using an expression: `=Eco: {{ $json.message.text }}`. This effectively prefaces the original text with \"Eco: \".\n* The JSON also shows `additionalFields.appendAttribution: false`. This is a small but important detail. By default, n8n sometimes adds a \"via n8n.io\" attribution to messages sent by the Telegram node. For a clean echo bot, I'd want to disable that, so setting `appendAttribution` to `false` is the right choice.\n* Just like the trigger, this node also needs Telegram API credentials to send messages. It makes sense to use the *same* credential as the trigger, referencing the same bot token. The JSON confirms they both use the same `credentials.telegramApi` ID.\n\nFinally, the prompt stated the workflow should be \"inactive\". This is handled at the workflow level with the `active: false` property. This means after I've designed and saved the workflow, it won't immediately start listening for messages; I'd have to explicitly activate it later if I wanted it to run. This is good practice for initial setup and testing.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow, as planned, consists of a \"Telegram Trigger\" listening for messages, feeding that message data into a \"Telegram\" node that constructs and sends an \"Eco:\" response back to the original chat. The naming and inactive state are also handled." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, then posts a tweet saying \"Hello from n8n!\".

The user wants something that kicks off manually, posts a tweet, and then has some conditional logic to potentially loop back.\n\nThe very first thing we need is a way to start the workflow. The prompt specifically mentions a \"manual trigger\". Looking at the provided JSON, I see a node named \"On clicking 'execute'\" which is of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect. It's the simplest way to initiate a workflow for testing or when a user wants to run it on demand. Its parameters are empty, which is exactly what we'd expect for a basic manual trigger \u2013 it just waits for a click. No complex configuration needed here, it simply provides an empty item to kick off the next node.\n\nNext, after it's triggered, the workflow needs to \"post a tweet saying 'Hello from n8n!'\". This clearly indicates we need a Twitter node. The JSON shows a node named \"Twitter\" of type `n8n-nodes-base.twitter` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is the right choice for interacting with the Twitter API. I'll connect the `manualTrigger`'s main output to the input of this `Twitter` node.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Twitter node? The prompt specifies the exact tweet content: \"Hello from n8n!\". So, within the `parameters` of the Twitter node, I'd set the `text` field to this string. There's also `additionalFields`, but the JSON shows it as empty, meaning no extra options like replying to a tweet or adding media are needed for this specific task, which keeps it simple. Crucially, to post a tweet, this node requires credentials. The JSON indicates `credentials: {\"twitterOAuth1Api\": \"Dummy Account\"}`. In a real-world scenario, this is where you'd link your actual Twitter account, configured as an OAuth1 API credential within n8n. The \"Dummy Account\" just signifies that *a* credential slot is being used, but it's not revealing any actual sensitive data.\n\nAfter the tweet is posted, the workflow needs to \"add an IF node that checks if `$runIndex` equals 4\". This sounds like a conditional check, which is exactly what an `IF` node is for. I'll connect the main output of the `Twitter` node to the input of this new `IF` node. The JSON confirms this with a node named \"IF\" of type `n8n-nodes-base.if` and `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nLet's configure the `IF` node's condition. The prompt states `$runIndex` equals 4. In n8n, `$runIndex` is a built-in variable that tracks how many times a workflow has executed since it was last activated (or for a single test run, it's typically 0 for the first item, 1 for the second, etc., when processing multiple items, but in this specific looping context it would represent the current iteration count). So, within the `parameters.conditions.number` array, I'd set `value1` to `={{$runIndex}}` (using an expression to access the variable) and `value2` to `4`. This sets up a simple numerical equality check.\n\nNow for the branching logic of the `IF` node. The prompt says \"if true, loop back to tweet again, otherwise proceed to a NoOp node.\"\n\nFor the \"true\" branch: if `$runIndex` *does* equal 4, we need to loop back to tweet again. This means the first output of the `IF` node (which represents the \"true\" branch) should connect back to the input of our `Twitter` node. This creates the loop! Data flow will pass from the `IF` node, back to the `Twitter` node, causing it to execute again. This is a common pattern for creating controlled loops or retries in n8n.\n\nFor the \"false\" branch: if `$runIndex` does *not* equal 4, the workflow should \"proceed to a NoOp node\". The JSON shows a node named \"NoOp\" of type `n8n-nodes-base.noOp` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node type, `NoOp` (which stands for \"No Operation\"), is essentially a placeholder. It does nothing to the data passing through it. It's useful for terminating a branch cleanly, or for debugging, or simply as a logical end point when no further action is required on that path. I'll connect the second output of the `IF` node (the \"false\" branch) to the input of this `NoOp` node. This completes the conditional logic and the possible paths of the workflow.\n\nSo, to recap the connections:\n* `On clicking 'execute'` connects to `Twitter`.\n* `Twitter` connects to `IF`.\n* `IF`'s true branch (output 0) connects *back* to `Twitter`.\n* `IF`'s false branch (output 1) connects to `NoOp`.\n\nThis setup perfectly matches the provided JSON and fulfills all the requirements of the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Manual wait set\". It should start with a manual trigger, connect to a wait node configured for 2 seconds, and then proceed to a set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Manual wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [900, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Manual\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1120, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Manual\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow built. The request is pretty clear: a \"Manual wait set\" workflow that starts with a manual trigger, pauses for 2 seconds, and then goes to a set node.\n\nFirst things first, I'd name the workflow. The prompt specifies \"Manual wait set\", so I'd make sure that's the title right off the bat to keep everything organized.\n\nNow, let's think about the actual nodes we need. The prompt tells us how it starts and what comes next.\n\nWe need a way to kick off this workflow manually. For that, the most suitable node is clearly a **Manual Trigger** node. This is perfect for testing or for scenarios where someone needs to manually initiate the workflow. So, I'd add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion` 1. Looking at the JSON, its parameters are just an empty object `{}` because a basic manual trigger doesn't need any special configuration\u2014it just provides an initial item to start the flow. I'd place it somewhere logical on the canvas, like at position `[680, 580]` as indicated in the JSON, to give some room for the subsequent nodes.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow needs to \"wait node configured for 2 seconds.\" This immediately points me to the **Wait** node. It's specifically designed for pausing workflow execution for a set amount of time. I'd add this node next. Its type would be `n8n-nodes-base.wait` and `typeVersion` 1. Now, for its configuration, the prompt is very specific: \"2 seconds.\" So, I would go into the Wait node's parameters and set the `amount` to `2` and the `unit` to `seconds`. This matches the `{\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}}` found in the provided JSON.\n\nNow, how do we connect it? The Wait node needs to run *after* the Manual Trigger. So, I'd connect the main output of the \"Manual\" trigger node to the main input of the \"Wait\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, it passes an item to the Wait node, which then begins its 2-second delay. I'd position this node appropriately, perhaps around `[900, 580]`, to keep a clear flow.\n\nFinally, the prompt states it should \"then proceed to a set node.\" A **Set** node is a very common and versatile node in n8n. It's used for adding, modifying, or removing data fields from the items passing through the workflow. Even if we're not explicitly adding data here, it serves as a good final step or a placeholder for future logic. It perfectly fits the \"proceed to\" description when no specific action is defined. So, I'd add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion` 1. Looking at the JSON's parameters for this node, it's `{\"options\": {}}`, which means no specific fields are being set or changed right now. It will just take the input and pass it through without modification.\n\nAnd how does this connect? It needs to run *after* the Wait node. So, the main output of the \"Wait\" node would connect to the main input of the \"Set\" node. This ensures that after the 2-second pause, the workflow items flow into the Set node. I'd place it to the right, perhaps at `[1120, 580]`, maintaining that left-to-right flow.\n\nThat pretty much covers the core logic and connections for the workflow based on the prompt and the JSON structure. The remaining bits in the JSON like `active: false` or the `settings` related to execution progress are standard defaults for a newly created or test workflow, ensuring it's not active right away and that its executions are saved for review." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Search DB\" that, when triggered by another workflow, immediately outputs a 'response' field with the static text '10 results found'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Search DB\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [640, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"10 results found\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [860, 380]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get started on building this n8n workflow. The request is quite specific: we need a workflow named \"Search DB\" that gets triggered by another workflow and, in turn, immediately outputs a static 'response' field with \"10 results found\". This sounds like a straightforward workflow, primarily focused on input and immediate, predefined output.\n\nFirst things first, I'd give the workflow the specified name: \"Search DB\". That's crucial for organization and discoverability, especially when other workflows need to call it.\n\nNow, let's think about the trigger. The prompt clearly states it needs to be \"triggered by another workflow\". So, I'll need a node that listens for calls from other n8n workflows. Looking at the available nodes, the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node (of type `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` and `typeVersion` 1) seems like the perfect fit for this. It's designed precisely for inter-workflow communication within n8n. I'll place this as the very first node in our workflow, as it's the entry point. Its primary purpose here is to receive an activation signal from whatever upstream workflow decides to call \"Search DB\". It doesn't require much configuration itself, as its job is simply to trigger the execution flow.\n\nOnce our workflow is triggered, the next step is to produce the required output: a 'response' field with the static text \"10 results found\". We need a node that can create new fields or modify existing data items. A \"Set\" node, or as it's often named in n8n, an \"Edit Fields\" node, is ideal for this. The JSON confirms this choice, showing an \"Edit Fields\" node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.set`, `typeVersion` 3.4).\n\nI'd place this \"Edit Fields\" node immediately after the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node. This ensures that as soon as the workflow is activated, we proceed directly to generating our response data.\n\nNow, let's configure the \"Edit Fields\" node. The goal is to output a specific field with a specific static value. So, within its parameters, I'd go to the \"Assignments\" section. Here, I'd add a new assignment.\n* For the \"Name\" of the new field, it needs to be \"response\" as per the prompt.\n* For the \"Value\", it must be the static text \"10 results found\".\n* The \"Type\" for this value would be \"string\", as we're dealing with plain text.\nThis configuration ensures that any item passing through this node will have a new field named \"response\" containing \"10 results found\". There are no specific \"options\" needed for this simple assignment, so those can remain at their defaults.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node will output its data (even if it's just an empty item representing the trigger itself) to the \"Edit Fields\" node. So, I'll draw a connection from the \"main\" output of \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" to the \"main\" input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This sequential flow ensures that the output is generated right after the workflow is triggered, fulfilling the \"immediately outputs\" part of the requirement.\n\nThat seems to cover all the requirements. The \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" kicks it off, and the \"Edit Fields\" node generates the exact output needed. Simple and efficient." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger named 'On clicking 'execute''.

The user's request is quite specific: a manual trigger, followed by a 'Set' node, and then another 'Set' node.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states it should start with a \"manual trigger named 'On clicking 'execute''\". So, that's what I'll grab. I'll look for the `manualTrigger` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the JSON specifies `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it allows me to execute the workflow whenever I manually click the 'Execute workflow' button in the n8n UI, which directly aligns with \"On clicking 'execute'\". I'll give it the exact name \"On clicking 'execute'\" as requested. Its position in the workflow, at `[600, 580]`, makes it a good starting point visually. This trigger node doesn't usually require any specific configuration parameters beyond its name; it just waits for a manual push to start the data flow.\n\nNext, the prompt says this manual trigger \"should connect to a 'Set' node\". A 'Set' node is a very common utility node in n8n. It's used to add, modify, or remove data fields on the incoming items. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and I see it's `typeVersion: 1` here. I'll call this node \"Set\", as per the instructions. To connect it, I'll draw a connection from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's main output to the \"Set\" node's main input. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, it passes its default empty item (or any data it might generate, though manual triggers typically start with an empty item) directly into this first \"Set\" node. Looking at the JSON, its `parameters` for `options` are empty `{}`. This means that, by default, this 'Set' node isn't actually modifying or setting any data fields right now; it's simply acting as a pass-through. This is perfectly valid and might be a placeholder for future logic, or just part of a foundational structure. Its position at `[820, 580]` places it nicely to the right of the trigger.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that the first 'Set' node \"then connects to a second 'Set' node named 'Set1'\". So, I'll add another 'Set' node. Again, it's `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'll name this one \"Set1\", exactly as requested. I'll connect the main output of the first \"Set\" node to the main input of this new \"Set1\" node. This ensures that whatever data (or lack thereof) comes out of the first 'Set' node will be immediately passed into 'Set1'. Like the first 'Set' node, its `parameters` are also empty for `options`, meaning it's also currently a pass-through. Its position at `[1040, 580]` keeps the workflow laid out linearly to the right.\n\nThis setup perfectly matches the user's requirements: a manual trigger initiating the workflow, leading to a 'Set' node, which then leads to a second 'Set' node. The connections ensure a sequential flow of data, even if currently no actual data manipulation is happening within the 'Set' nodes." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, retrieves all customer profiles (including fields like name, email, and country) from a 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node, and then connects them to a 'Set' node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"NDV search bugs (introduced by schema view?)\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [800, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}, \"name\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1020, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": []}, \"includeOtherFields\": true, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [1240, 380]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this n8n workflow based on the user's request and the provided JSON.\n\nThe user wants a workflow that:\n1. Manually triggers.\n2. Retrieves all customer profiles, specifically noting fields like name, email, and country, from a \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node.\n3. Connects these profiles to a \"Set\" node.\n\nOkay, so the first thing I need to establish is how this workflow will kick off. The prompt clearly states \"manually triggers\".\n\n**Node 1: Triggering the Workflow**\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** For a workflow that starts on demand, a `Manual Trigger` node is the most straightforward choice. It provides a simple button in the n8n UI to initiate an execution. It doesn't require any complex setup; its `parameters` object is typically empty for this basic use case, which matches the JSON's `{\"parameters\": {}}`. So, I'll place this node first.\n\nNext, once the workflow is triggered, I need to get the customer data. The prompt specifies a particular node for this: \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\".\n\n**Node 2: Retrieving Customer Data**\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This is a very specific node mentioned in the prompt, so I know exactly which one to use. I'll search for it and add it to the canvas. The goal is to retrieve *all* customer profiles. Looking at the JSON, the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node is configured with `{\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}`. This operation name, \"getAllPeople\", sounds exactly like what's needed to fetch every available customer profile. This aligns perfectly with the requirement to \"retrieve all customer profiles.\"\n* **Connection:** I need to connect the `Manual Trigger` node to this `Customer Datastore` node. The `connections` in the JSON confirm this: the `When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019` (which is the Manual Trigger's name) connects its `main` output to the `main` input of the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node. Data will flow directly from the trigger to initiate the data retrieval.\n\nFinally, the prompt says to \"connects them to a 'Set' node,\" specifically mentioning that the customer profiles should include fields like `name`, `email`, and `country`.\n\n**Node 3: Processing\/Passing Customer Data**\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `3.4`\n* **Reasoning:** A `Set` node is incredibly versatile. It can be used to add new fields, rename existing ones, or, importantly for this case, simply pass through existing data while potentially filtering or ensuring specific fields are present. The prompt asks to ensure fields like `name`, `email`, and `country` are included. Looking at the `pinData` provided for the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node, I can see that the output from that node *already* contains `name`, `email`, and `country` fields (e.g., `\"name\": \"Jay Gatsby\", \"email\": \"gatsby@west-egg.com\", \"country\": \"US\"`).\n* **Configuration:** The JSON shows the `Set` node's parameters as `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": []}, \"includeOtherFields\": true, \"options\": {}}`.\n * The `assignments` array being empty `[]` means I'm not creating any *new* fields or explicitly renaming existing ones within this `Set` node.\n * However, `includeOtherFields: true` is the key here. This setting tells the `Set` node to pass through *all* fields it receives from the previous node, even if they aren't explicitly defined in the `assignments`. Since the `Customer Datastore` node already outputs `name`, `email`, and `country` (and other fields), setting `includeOtherFields` to `true` ensures that these fields, along with any others, are carried forward without modification. So, the `Set` node here is essentially acting as a passthrough, making sure all the customer profile data retrieved by the previous node is available for subsequent steps, as required.\n* **Connection:** I need to connect the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node's output to the input of this `Set` node. The `connections` confirm this: the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node connects its `main` output to the `main` input of the `Edit Fields` (which is the Set node's given name) node.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the prompt and the provided JSON structure." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile Collect contacts via SalesQL\" that triggers via a webhook at `\/onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/CollectContactsViaSalesQL`.

The request is quite specific: we need to create a workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile Collect contacts via SalesQL\", triggered by a webhook, that fetches content from a Google Doc and then sends that content back as the webhook response, plus it needs specific tags.\n\nMy first thought, whenever a workflow needs to be initiated by an external system or a specific HTTP call, is to use a **Webhook** node. This is the entry point, the listener. It's perfectly suited for external triggers.\n\nSo, I'll start by adding a **Webhook** node. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion` is `2`. This is pretty standard. For its configuration, the prompt specifies the exact path: `\/onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/CollectContactsViaSalesQL`. So, in the webhook node's parameters, I'd set the `path` to `onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/CollectContactsViaSalesQL`. This ensures it listens only on that specific URL.\n\nThe prompt also says it should \"respond to the original webhook\". This tells me that the Webhook node itself won't directly send the response; instead, it will hand off the responsibility to another node. Therefore, I'll set its `responseMode` parameter to `responseNode`. This means another node downstream will handle sending the HTTP response back to the client that triggered this webhook. This is a common and flexible pattern in n8n, allowing more complex logic before responding.\n\nNow that the workflow can receive requests, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"retrieve the content of the Google Doc\". This immediately makes me think of an integration with Google Docs. n8n has a dedicated node for Google Docs, which is perfect for this.\n\nSo, I'll connect the **Webhook** node's output to a new node, which will be the **Google Docs** node. From the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion` is `2`. This node is designed specifically for interacting with Google Docs, allowing operations like getting, creating, or updating documents. In this case, we need to `get` the content of a document.\n\nWithin the **Google Docs** node's parameters, the `operation` should definitely be set to `get`. Then, it needs to know *which* document to get. The prompt provides a specific Google Doc URL: `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/126QWYw77fJzaRUlUK3_ez-6ubRdfDSnFbs0rCsmMoWc\/edit?tab=t.0`. So, the `documentURL` parameter in the Google Docs node will be configured with that specific URL. Of course, this node will also require credentials to access Google Docs, which would be set up separately \u2013 the JSON shows `credentials` pointing to a `googleDocsOAuth2Api` named \"Google Docs account\", which makes sense as it's a common authentication method for Google services.\n\nAfter the Google Docs node successfully retrieves the document content, that content will be available as output from this node. The final piece of the puzzle is to \"respond to the original webhook with that document's text\". Since we set the initial Webhook node's `responseMode` to `responseNode`, we need a dedicated node to handle the actual HTTP response.\n\nThis is where the **Respond to Webhook** node comes in. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion` is `1.1`. This node is specifically designed to send an HTTP response back to the client that initiated the webhook trigger. I'll connect the output of the **Google Docs** node to the input of this **Respond to Webhook** node.\n\nIn the **Respond to Webhook** node's parameters, the prompt specifies we need to respond with the document's text. So, the `respondWith` parameter should be set to `text`. And for the `responseBody`, we need to reference the output from the previous Google Docs node. When the Google Docs node gets content, it typically outputs the document's text under a property like `content`. So, I'd use an expression to access that data: `={{ $json.content }}`. This tells the node to take the `content` field from the incoming JSON data (which is the output from the Google Docs node) and use it as the response body.\n\nFinally, looking at the workflow's overall settings, the prompt also mentioned tagging the workflow. The JSON shows tags like 'Day4', 'Lg', 'Files', and 'Onboarding' already present. These are simply metadata to help organize and categorize workflows within n8n, which is a good practice for discoverability and management. The workflow name, \"GetOnboardingFile Collect contacts via SalesQL\", also matches the prompt, which helps identify its purpose. The `active: true` indicates the workflow is enabled and ready to run." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a 'On clicking 'execute'' manual trigger connected to a 'Twilio' node.

So, the first logical step is always to establish the starting point of the workflow.\n\nFor this, I need a trigger. The prompt explicitly mentions \"On clicking 'execute'\", which immediately tells me I should reach for the **Manual Trigger node**. This is a `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node, specifically `typeVersion 1`. It's ideal for workflows that you want to run ad-hoc, perhaps for testing, or when you need a workflow to be initiated directly by a user interacting with the n8n interface. It doesn't require any external events or schedules; you just click \"Execute Workflow\" and it runs. I'll place this at the specified coordinates, `[250, 300]`, to begin laying out the visual flow. For its configuration, the `parameters` object is empty, which is typical for a basic manual trigger \u2013 it simply waits for a click to fire.\n\nNow that I have my trigger, what's the next step? The prompt says it should be connected to a \"Twilio\" node. Twilio is a communication platform, so I'll need a node that can interact with its API.\n\nThis leads me directly to the **Twilio node**. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.twilio`, and it's also `typeVersion 1`. This node is specifically designed for integrating with Twilio's various services, like sending SMS messages, making calls, or managing phone numbers. It's the perfect choice when you want your workflow to programmatically interact with Twilio. I'll position it at `[430, 300]`, keeping it neatly to the right of the trigger node, maintaining a clean horizontal flow.\n\nWith both nodes in place, the crucial next step is to connect them. The `manualTrigger` needs to pass its execution signal to the `Twilio` node. Looking at the `connections` definition, it clearly shows that the `On clicking 'execute'` node's `main` output should connect to the `Twilio` node's `main` input. This is the standard way data and execution flow from one node to the next in n8n. When the manual trigger is activated, it will send an item (or series of items, though typically just one for a basic trigger) down this connection to the Twilio node, prompting it to execute.\n\nFinally, I need to consider the configuration of the `Twilio` node. Its `parameters` are currently an empty object, `{}`. This means that, at this moment, no specific Twilio operation (like \"Send SMS\" or \"Make Call\") or corresponding input fields (like \"To Phone Number\" or \"Message Body\") have been set up. This workflow just establishes the *capability* to interact with Twilio, but not yet *what* specific action it should perform. In a fully functional scenario, I would dive into these parameters to define the exact Twilio operation required, such as sending a specific SMS message with dynamic content.\n\nAnd then there's the `credentials` field: `{\"twilioApi\": \"\"}`. For the Twilio node to actually communicate with the Twilio service, it needs authentication. This `twilioApi` key indicates where the credential information (like Account SID and Auth Token) would be linked. Currently, it's empty, meaning no specific credential set has been selected or configured. In a production environment, I would ensure that a valid Twilio API credential is linked here to allow the node to securely authenticate with my Twilio account and perform the desired actions.\n\nThis completes the setup of this two-node workflow. It's a simple, straightforward flow from a manual trigger to an external service interaction." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that uses a Webhook trigger, then connects to a PostHog node.

The core requirement here is pretty clear: we need to kick things off with a webhook, and then take some information from that webhook to send an event over to PostHog.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly states \"Webhook trigger\", so that's a no-brainer for our initial node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nI'm placing this node at the very beginning of our workflow, typically on the left side of the canvas. This `Webhook` node is perfect because it listens for incoming HTTP requests, which is exactly what we need to initiate our process. When a request comes in, it'll capture all the data \u2013 the headers, the body, and importantly for us, the query parameters. Looking at the provided JSON, it automatically assigns a `webhookId` and `path`. These are essentially unique identifiers that n8n generates to create the specific URL that external systems will send requests to. For now, we'll just let n8n handle that generation; it's an essential part of making the webhook accessible. We're not configuring any special `options` at this stage, so we'll leave that as the default empty object.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The goal is to send data to PostHog. So, naturally, the next step involves a PostHog integration.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.postHog`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nI'll connect the `Webhook` node's primary output (its \"main\" output) directly to the `PostHog` node's primary input (its \"main\" input). This creates a sequential flow, meaning that once the webhook successfully receives data, that data will then be passed along to the PostHog node for processing. This is a very common and straightforward connection for \"trigger and then act\" type workflows.\n\nNow, let's dive into configuring this `PostHog` node, as it has some specific requirements from the user prompt.\n\nThe prompt states: \"Configure the PostHog node to use the webhook's `query.event` as the event name\". This is a key piece of dynamic data. The `Webhook` node outputs all the incoming request details as JSON. So, to access `query.event`, we'll use an n8n expression. Looking at the JSON, it shows `eventName\": \"={{$json[\\\"query\\\"][\\\"event\\\"]}}\"`. This is perfect! The `={{...}}` syntax tells n8n to evaluate the content inside as an expression, and `$json[\"query\"][\"event\"]` specifically drills down into the JSON output from the previous node (our Webhook) to pull out the value associated with `event` within the `query` object. This ensures our event name in PostHog is dynamic and comes directly from what the webhook received.\n\nNext, the prompt says: \"set the `distinctId` to \"n8n\"\". This is much simpler. It's a static value. So, in the `distinctId` parameter field, we'll simply type \"n8n\". The JSON confirms this with `\"distinctId\": \"n8n\"`. Easy enough.\n\nThere's also an `additionalFields` parameter. While the JSON shows it as an empty object `{}`, it's good to know it's there. This is where we could add any other custom properties or context to our PostHog event, but for this specific workflow, we don't need any, so we'll leave it as is.\n\nFinally, for the `PostHog` node, we need to handle authentication. The prompt mentions: \"utilize your PostHog API credentials.\" The JSON reflects this with `\"credentials\": {\"postHogApi\": \"PostHog Credentials\"}`. This means that we would have previously set up a reusable credential in n8n, likely containing the PostHog project API key and possibly the instance URL. By linking it here, the PostHog node knows how to authenticate itself when sending data to your specific PostHog instance. I wouldn't specify any actual credential values here, just refer to the named credential set.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it! The workflow starts with the webhook, captures the incoming data, passes it to the PostHog node, which then uses that data (specifically `query.event`) along with a static `distinctId` and configured credentials to send an event to PostHog. It's a straightforward, two-node workflow, but it effectively accomplishes the user's request." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON featuring a `meta` object, five nodes, and specific connections. The nodes include a `manualTrigger`, two `set` nodes, and two \"Unknown node\" types with `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist` and `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither` identifiers, connected such that the trigger feeds into the first `set` node, which then feeds into the second `set` node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [280, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Unknown node 1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [400, 500]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Unknown node 2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 500]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.2, \"position\": [500, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.2, \"position\": [720, 320]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Edit Fields\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow from the ground up, just like I'm building it in the editor.\n\nThe first thing I always look for is the overall structure and, critically, what triggers the workflow. Looking at the provided JSON, I see a `meta` object at the very top. This `meta` object, specifically the `instanceId`, is administrative information. It's a unique identifier for this particular workflow instance, which is useful for internal tracking and management within n8n, but it doesn't affect the workflow's actual execution logic. It's just part of the workflow's metadata envelope.\n\nNow, onto the actual functional part: the `nodes` and `connections`. Every workflow needs a starting point. In this case, the JSON clearly defines a `manualTrigger` node. This is excellent for development and testing.\n\nSo, my first step would be to add a `manualTrigger` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is 1. This node, named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" in the JSON, is the perfect choice for a workflow that needs to be initiated manually, perhaps for testing purposes or for a workflow that a user explicitly wants to run on demand. I'd place it towards the left of my canvas, as it's the entry point. Its parameters are empty, which is typical for a basic manual trigger \u2013 it just emits a single item when activated.\n\nNext, I need to figure out what happens after the trigger. The prompt clearly states that the trigger feeds into the first `set` node. So, the logical progression is to add that `set` node next. This node is named \"Edit Fields\" in the JSON. It's of `type` `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is 3.2. A `set` node is incredibly useful for manipulating data passing through the workflow. It allows me to add, remove, or modify fields on the items. In this specific configuration, its `parameters` section for `options` is empty, which means it's not currently set up to perform any specific data transformation. It acts more like a pass-through, ready to be configured later. I'd connect the `main` output of the `manualTrigger` directly to the `main` input of this \"Edit Fields\" `set` node. This ensures that any item generated by the trigger (even an empty one) will flow into this node for potential modification.\n\nFollowing the connections defined, the first `set` node, \"Edit Fields\", then feeds into a second `set` node. So, my next step is to add that. This node is named \"Edit Fields1\", and it's also of `type` `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion` 3.2. Just like the previous `set` node, its `parameters` for `options` are empty, indicating no specific data operations are configured right now. Having two `set` nodes in sequence like this could imply a multi-stage data preparation process. Perhaps the first `set` node would handle initial data cleanup, and the second would enrich the data with new fields. The `typeVersion` 3.2 for both `set` nodes suggests they are using a relatively recent and stable version of the node, which is good. I would connect the `main` output of the first `set` node, \"Edit Fields\", to the `main` input of this second `set` node, \"Edit Fields1\". This completes the specified linear flow.\n\nNow, taking a full look at all the nodes listed in the `nodes` array in the JSON, I notice two other nodes: \"Unknown node 1\" and \"Unknown node 2\". \"Unknown node 1\" has the `type` `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist` with `typeVersion` 1. \"Unknown node 2\" has the `type` `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither` with `typeVersion` 1. These are very interesting because their `type` names clearly indicate they are not standard, recognizable n8n nodes. They could be placeholders for custom nodes, or perhaps nodes that were intended to be developed but don't exist yet, or maybe even nodes from a specific plugin that isn't currently loaded. Crucially, when I examine the `connections` object in the JSON, I see no entries for these two \"Unknown node\" types. This means that while they exist within the workflow definition as individual nodes, they are not connected to anything in the current workflow graph. They'd just be sitting on the canvas, completely isolated from the `manualTrigger` -> `set` -> `set` sequence. They don't affect the current execution flow but are part of the overall workflow file. Their `typeVersion` being 1 suggests they are either very basic custom nodes or perhaps just stubs." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, first defines the domain as 'n8n.io' using a Function Item node.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to trigger a workflow manually, set a specific domain name, and then use that domain name to fetch its DNS records.\n\nFirst things first, how do we get this workflow started? The prompt explicitly says it should be \"manually triggered.\" This immediately points me to a specific node type in n8n. The most straightforward way to manually kick off a workflow is with a trigger node. So, I'd start by dragging out an **On clicking 'execute'** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it literally does nothing but provide an input item when the 'execute' button is clicked, which is exactly what we need for a manual start. There are no specific parameters to configure for this one; it's just a simple starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt says we need to \"first define the domain as 'n8n.io' using a Function Item node.\" A `Function Item` node, with type `n8n-nodes-base.functionItem` and `typeVersion: 1`, is an excellent choice for this. Why? Because it allows us to write a small piece of JavaScript code to manipulate the incoming data item. In this case, we don't have much incoming data from the manual trigger, but we *can* create a new property on that item. I need to pass the output of my `On clicking 'execute'` node into this `Function Item` node. So, I'd connect the `main` output of \"On clicking 'execute'\" to the `main` input of the \"Create Domain Item\" (that's a good name for it, by the way).\n\nInside this `Function Item` node, the goal is to define the domain. The easiest way to do this is to take the `item` object that comes into the function and add a new property to it. The prompt specifies \"n8n.io\". So, the code would be something like `item.domain = \"n8n.io\";`. And, crucially, we need to `return item;` so that the modified item, now with our `domain` property, is passed on to the next node. This makes the domain easily accessible downstream.\n\nAlright, with the domain defined and ready, the final step is to \"retrieve the DNS records for this domain using a Uproc node with the `getDomainRecords` tool, dynamically passing the domain from the previous node and using the 'miquel-uproc' credential.\" This tells me exactly what node to use and how to configure it.\n\nSo, I'd add a **Uproc** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.uproc`, and it's `typeVersion: 1`. The `Uproc` node is designed for interacting with the Uproc service, which exposes various tools. I'd connect the `main` output of \"Create Domain Item\" to the `main` input of this \"Get DNS records\" node.\n\nNow, for its configuration:\nThe prompt explicitly states the `tool` should be `getDomainRecords`. I'd select that from the available options. It also mentions a `group`, which for this tool is typically 'internet'.\nThe crucial part is \"dynamically passing the domain from the previous node.\" This means I can't just type \"n8n.io\" directly into the `domain` parameter. Instead, I need to use an expression. The `Function Item` node before it named the property `domain` on its output item. So, I'd use an expression like `{{$node[\"Create Domain Item\"].json[\"domain\"]}}`. This tells n8n to look at the data coming from the \"Create Domain Item\" node, access its JSON data, and then pick out the value of the `domain` property. This makes the workflow flexible if, for example, the domain were to come from a different source later on.\nFinally, the prompt specifies using the 'miquel-uproc' credential. So, under the `credentials` section for the `uprocApi`, I would select or configure that specific credential. This is how the node authenticates and connects to the Uproc service to make the actual DNS lookup. There are no additional options needed for this particular query.\n\nAnd that's it. The manual trigger starts it, the function item defines the necessary piece of data, and the Uproc node uses that data to perform the requested operation. The data flows logically from one node to the next, with the `Function Item` enriching the data item for the `Uproc` node to consume." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with two Webhook nodes.

The prompt is pretty clear about the overall structure: two webhooks starting things off, leading into a Hacker News lookup, and finally to an \"Edit Fields\" node. I'll think through this as if I'm building it from scratch.\n\nFirst things first, the workflow needs a trigger, and the prompt specifies two of them: Webhooks. This is great for external systems or services that need to kick off this process.\n\nSo, I'll start by adding the first Webhook node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` (typeVersion: 2). This is the standard entry point for any workflow that needs to be callable via an HTTP request. It makes the workflow accessible from outside n8n.\n* **Configuration:** I'd give it a meaningful name, maybe just \"Webhook\" as per the JSON. For its `path` parameter, a unique identifier is automatically generated (or I'd define one manually for a clean URL) to ensure it has its own distinct endpoint to listen for incoming requests. The `options` parameter is empty here, meaning it's likely set up for basic GET or POST requests without complex authentication or response headers configured, which is a good default for a simple trigger.\n\nNext, the prompt states *two* Webhook nodes, so I'll add a second one right beside the first.\n* **Node Type:** Again, it's an `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` (typeVersion: 2). The choice is identical because it serves the same purpose: providing an alternative entry point for the workflow.\n* **Configuration:** I'd name this one \"Webhook1\" to distinguish it. Like the first, it will need its own unique `path` generated so that it can be triggered independently from the first webhook. The `options` are also empty here, keeping it straightforward. So now I have my two starting points, ready to receive external triggers.\n\nThe prompt then directs that \"Both webhooks should connect to a Hacker News node configured to retrieve article ID 123.\" This tells me what the core logic is going to be.\n* **Node Type:** I need to retrieve data from Hacker News, so the `n8n-nodes-base.hackerNews` node (typeVersion: 1) is the perfect fit. It's purpose-built for interacting with the Hacker News API, simplifying what would otherwise be a custom HTTP request.\n* **Connection:** This is where the workflow branches merge. I'd draw a connection from the `main` output of my first \"Webhook\" node to the `main` input of this new \"Hacker News\" node. Then, I'd do the same for the \"Webhook1\" node, connecting its `main` output to the same \"Hacker News\" node's `main` input. This means that regardless of which webhook triggers the workflow, the execution path converges on this Hacker News node.\n* **Configuration:** The critical part here is \"retrieve article ID 123.\" So, within the Hacker News node's parameters, I'd find the `articleId` field and input \"123\". This ensures that the node specifically fetches the details for that particular article ID. The `additionalFields` parameter is empty, indicating that no other specific data points are being requested beyond the standard article details.\n\nFinally, the retrieved data \"then passes the data to an Edit Fields node.\"\n* **Node Type:** The prompt specifically names an \"Edit Fields\" node. In n8n, the `n8n-nodes-base.set` node (typeVersion: 3.3) is commonly used for this purpose \u2013 to set, modify, or rename fields in the incoming data. Its name \"Edit Fields\" in the workflow JSON makes perfect sense.\n* **Connection:** The data from the \"Hacker News\" node needs to go somewhere for further processing. So, I'd connect the `main` output of the \"Hacker News\" node to the `main` input of this new \"Edit Fields\" node.\n* **Configuration:** Looking at the JSON, this \"Edit Fields\" node has `options: {}` under its parameters. This is interesting, as it means no specific fields are actually being added, renamed, or modified. It's essentially acting as a pass-through at this point, or perhaps as a placeholder where further data manipulation might be configured later. It fulfills the requirement of passing the data *to* an \"Edit Fields\" node, even if it's not actively transforming it in this specific configuration.

The goal, as I understand it, is to create a workflow that can be manually triggered and then interacts with n8n itself to manage a credential. This is pretty powerful, allowing workflows to automate administrative tasks within n8n.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a foundational identity. Looking at the prompt, it specifies an `instanceId` of '123'. So, the very first piece of information I'd establish for this workflow is its `meta` block, ensuring it has this specific `instanceId`. This `instanceId` is really important for tracking and referencing this particular workflow instance.\n\nOkay, so the overall structure is there. Now, how do we start this workflow? The user prompt clearly states it should feature a `manualTrigger` node. This is perfect for a workflow that I want to initiate myself, perhaps for testing, or for an administrative task that isn't scheduled or hooked into an external event. So, the first node I'll add is the `manualTrigger` node.\n\nI'm looking at the provided JSON, and yes, it's there: `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"`. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the standard, stable version of this node. If there were newer versions, they might offer additional features or slightly different behaviors, but for now, version 1 is perfectly suitable for simply initiating the workflow when clicked. It's a very straightforward node, as reflected by its empty `parameters` object; it just waits for a manual kick-off. I'll give it a clear, descriptive name like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" so it's obvious what it does in the UI. I'll place it somewhere logical on the canvas, say around `[300, 240]`. It also gets a unique `id` for internal tracking, like `acdd1bdc-c642-4ea6-ad67-f4201b640cfa`.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's the next step? The prompt specifies that this `manualTrigger` needs to be connected to an `n8n` node. This `n8n` node is going to be the workhorse here, performing the actual management task. The fact that it's an `n8n` node means it's designed to interact with the n8n API itself, which is exactly what we need if we're managing something *within* n8n, like credentials.\n\nSo, I'll add an `n8n` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.n8n`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. Again, version 1 is standard and reliable. I'll position it to the right of the trigger, perhaps at `[540, 240]`, so it flows nicely visually. It'll also get a unique internal ID, for instance, `a01f79f6-e8c3-44c5-be5e-4bc482e23172`, and I'll just call it \"n8n\" for simplicity, as per the JSON.\n\nNow, for the critical part: configuring this `n8n` node. The prompt tells us it's \"configured to manage a credential named '123' of type '123'\". This directly translates into the `parameters` of the `n8n` node.\n* The `resource` parameter must be set to `credential` because we're specifically managing credentials.\n* Then, to identify *which* credential, we need its `name`. The prompt explicitly says the credential is \"named '123'\", so the `name` parameter will be set to `123`.\n* It also specifies \"of type '123'\". This refers to the `credentialTypeName`. So, `credentialTypeName` will be set to `123`. This combination of `resource`, `name`, and `credentialTypeName` tells the `n8n` node exactly what credential it needs to interact with.\n\nFinally, for this `n8n` node to actually *do* anything with the n8n API, it needs to authenticate itself. The prompt mentions it uses \"an 'n8nApi' credential named 'n8n account' (ID '10')\". This means within the `n8n` node's configuration, there will be a `credentials` block. Inside this block, we'll specify that it uses an `n8nApi` type credential. The `id` of this credential is `10`, and its `name` is \"n8n account\". It's important that this credential exists in the n8n instance and has the necessary permissions to manage other credentials. This setup ensures the `n8n` node can securely and authorizedly make API calls to its own n8n instance.\n\nThe last piece is connecting these two nodes. The `manualTrigger` needs to pass its execution flow to the `n8n` node. This is a straightforward `main` connection. So, from \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" (our `manualTrigger` node), a `main` output will connect to the `main` input of the \"n8n\" node. This means whenever the `manualTrigger` is activated, it will simply pass control to the `n8n` node, allowing it to execute its configured action. The `index: 0` just indicates it's the first connection from that output. This completes the basic flow.

The prompt specifies two Webhook nodes, so those are clearly our entry points, or triggers, for the workflow. We'll need them to be able to receive incoming data and kick things off.\n\nFirst, I'll set up the \"Webhook\" node. This will be an `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, `typeVersion 2`. A webhook node is ideal for this because it creates a unique URL that external services can call to start the workflow. It's essentially an API endpoint for our workflow. Looking at the JSON, I see its `path` is set to `4a3398e4-1388-4e10-9d21-add90b804955`. This path makes the webhook URL unique, ensuring that requests to this specific path will trigger this particular workflow instance. Additionally, the prompt specifies pin data for this node. Pin data lets us inject static, pre-defined data into the workflow right at the start. For this \"Webhook\" node, the pin data is configured with the `name` \"First item\" and `code` \"1\". This means that when this webhook is triggered, in addition to any incoming data, it will also output an item containing this \"First item\" with a value of \"1\". It's a handy way to include constant values that are always present when this specific path is called.\n\nNext, the prompt also mentions a second webhook, named \"Webhook1\". Just like the first one, this will also be an `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, `typeVersion 2`. It serves the same purpose as the \"Webhook\" node: to act as an external trigger. Having two distinct webhooks means we have two separate entry points for the same workflow logic downstream, allowing different systems or events to initiate the process while potentially providing different initial data. Its `path` is `30ff316d-405f-4288-a0ac-e713546c9d4e`, ensuring it has its own unique trigger URL.\n\nNow that we have our triggers, the prompt indicates that both webhooks should connect to a \"Hacker News\" node. This suggests that regardless of which webhook triggers the workflow, the subsequent action will be to interact with the Hacker News API. So, I'll add a \"Hacker News\" node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.hackerNews` and `typeVersion 1`. This node is specifically designed to interact with the Hacker News API, allowing us to fetch information like articles, comments, or user details. In this case, the configuration specifies an `articleId` of \"123\". This means that whenever this node executes, it will attempt to retrieve the details for the Hacker News article with the ID \"123\". It's a very specific configuration, implying we're always interested in the same piece of content from Hacker News, no matter how the workflow is triggered. Both the \"Webhook\" node and the \"Webhook1\" node will connect their `main` output to the `main` input of this \"Hacker News\" node. This ensures that any data flow from either webhook will proceed to fetch the specified Hacker News article.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that the \"Hacker News\" node should connect to an \"Edit Fields\" node. This node is named \"Edit Fields\" in the workflow, but its actual type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and `typeVersion 3.3`. A `Set` node, commonly referred to as \"Edit Fields\" in the n8n UI, is used to manipulate data. It can add, rename, or remove fields from the incoming data. In this specific workflow, the `parameters` for this \"Edit Fields\" node only contain an empty `options` object, meaning no specific fields are being added, removed, or changed at this point. It might be a placeholder for future data transformation, or perhaps it's there to simply pass through the data from the \"Hacker News\" node, ready for subsequent nodes that might be added later. The `main` output of the \"Hacker News\" node will connect to the `main` input of this \"Edit Fields\" node, ensuring that the Hacker News article data flows into it for any potential manipulation." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'My workflow' starting with a Schedule Trigger that outputs two items (one with `count` and special character keys like `with space`, `with.dot`, and `with\"quotes`, another with `count`). This connects to a Set node assigning an empty string to a variable 'other', followed by a second Set node performing the same assignment.

Based on the prompt, I'll name it \"My workflow\", which is straightforward. And critically, it needs to be inactive, so I'll make sure the `active` flag is set to `false` right from the start. That means it won't execute until explicitly activated.\n\nNow, onto the actual nodes. Every workflow needs a starting point, and the prompt clearly states this one begins with a Schedule Trigger.\n\n**Node 1: Schedule Trigger**\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThis is the perfect node to start with because the requirement is for the workflow to begin with a schedule. The Schedule Trigger is designed precisely for that\u2014to kick off the workflow automatically at predefined intervals. For its basic configuration, the JSON shows `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This indicates a default or basic interval setting, meaning it will run according to its default frequency, often every minute or hour depending on the exact implementation of an empty interval, or it's simply a placeholder for more specific time configurations if they were needed. In this case, the empty object implies the most basic, recurring schedule.\n\nNow, the interesting part about this Schedule Trigger is its output. The prompt specifies that it needs to output two items with very specific keys, including ones with spaces, dots, and quotes. When defining a workflow's behavior, especially for testing or mock data, n8n uses a `pinData` section. For a trigger node like this, `pinData` defines the *output* items it would produce. So, I'll configure the `pinData` for this node to match the requirement.\n\nThe first output item is an object with `count` set to `0`, and then those specially named keys: `with space`, `with.dot`, and `with\"quotes\"`. I'll set their values to a simple placeholder like `!!` for demonstration purposes. The second output item is simpler, just an object with `count` set to `1`. This setup ensures that when this workflow is tested or run in a specific environment, the Schedule Trigger will provide exactly these two data items to the next node in the chain, fulfilling that output requirement.\n\nNext, the workflow needs to connect this Schedule Trigger to a Set node.\n\n**Node 2: Set**\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `3.3`\n\nWhy a Set node here? The prompt specifies that the workflow needs to assign an empty string to a variable named 'other'. A Set node is precisely what you use in n8n to manipulate or define data items, including creating new variables or modifying existing ones. It's incredibly versatile for data transformation.\n\nI'll connect the 'main' output of the 'Schedule Trigger' node to the 'main' input of this 'Set' node. This ensures that the two items output by the trigger are passed directly into the Set node for processing.\n\nFor its configuration, within the `parameters` block, I'll define an `assignment`. This assignment will create a new field (or variable) called `other` and assign it an empty string value. The type for this value will be `string`. This satisfies the requirement of assigning an empty string to 'other'.\n\nFollowing this, the prompt indicates there's a *second* Set node, performing the same assignment.\n\n**Node 3: Set1**\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `3.3`\n\nAgain, a Set node is the correct choice here for the exact same reasons as the previous one\u2014it's designed for data manipulation and assignment. The prompt implies a repetition of the previous action.\n\nI'll connect the 'main' output of the first 'Set' node to the 'main' input of this second 'Set1' node. This means whatever data items came out of the first Set node (which would now include the 'other' variable assigned with an empty string) will be passed into this second Set node.\n\nIts configuration will mirror the first Set node: an assignment that sets the variable 'other' to an empty string of type `string`. Functionally, this second Set node will simply re-assign the same value to 'other' on the incoming data, or if 'other' didn't exist for some reason (which it should by now), it would create it. It fulfills the requirement of having a second Set node performing the same assignment.\n\nAnd that completes the construction of the workflow based on the given JSON and requirements. The connections are established, the nodes are configured for their specific tasks, and the overall workflow is set to inactive." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFileResponsibleAIuse\" that, when triggered by a webhook, fetches the text content from the Google Doc URL `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1ObQKAukFi9rMTLj2q3xO8Z_fsTVJ-4OEQjv-d6rrEgA\/edit?usp=drive_link` and returns it as the webhook response.

The user wants an n8n workflow that starts with a webhook, fetches content from a Google Doc, and then sends that content back as the webhook response. Plus, it needs specific tags and a name.\n\nFirst things first, the prompt clearly states that the workflow should be \"triggered by a webhook.\" This immediately tells me the very first node I need to put down.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a **Webhook** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the `typeVersion` is `2`. This is the standard way to initiate a workflow based on an external HTTP request.\n* I'd give it a clear name like \"Webhook\" as per the JSON, which is pretty self-explanatory.\n* When configuring it, I know I need to set the `responseMode`. Since the content from the Google Doc needs to be returned as the *response* to this webhook, I'd set `responseMode` to `\"responseNode\"`. This means the webhook itself won't send an immediate response; instead, a later node in the workflow will handle sending the final response. This is crucial for delaying the response until we have the Google Doc content. The `path` parameter would automatically be generated or configured for the specific webhook URL, allowing it to be triggered externally.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"fetches the text content from the Google Doc URL.\" This immediately tells me I need an integration with Google Docs. n8n has a dedicated node for that.\n\nSo, connecting from the \"Webhook\" node, I'd add a **Google Docs** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and the `typeVersion` is `2`. This node is perfectly suited for interacting with Google Docs, whether it's reading, writing, or managing documents.\n* I'd name it \"Google Docs\" for simplicity.\n* In terms of configuration, I need to fetch content, so the `operation` parameter would be set to `\"get\"`. This specific operation allows retrieving the content of a document.\n* The prompt provides a Google Doc URL, so I'd configure the `documentURL` parameter with that specific URL. This is how the node knows which document to fetch content from.\n* Of course, to access a Google Doc, especially one that might not be publicly shared, I'd need to link it to a Google Docs account. The JSON shows a `credentials` property pointing to a `googleDocsOAuth2Api` account, which is the standard secure way to authenticate with Google services. This ensures the workflow has the necessary permissions to read the document.\n\nNow that the Google Docs node has fetched the content, the final requirement is to \"return it as the webhook response.\" This means the content retrieved by the Google Docs node needs to be sent back through the initial webhook. This is where the `responseMode: \"responseNode\"` setting on the Webhook node comes into play.\n\nSo, connecting from the \"Google Docs\" node, the last node in this simple workflow would be a **Respond to Webhook** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and the `typeVersion` is `1.1`. This node is specifically designed to send a response back to the webhook that triggered the workflow, fulfilling the delayed response mechanism.\n* I'd name it \"Respond to Webhook.\"\n* For its configuration, the prompt implies fetching \"text content,\" so I'd set the `respondWith` parameter to `\"text\"`. This tells the node to send a plain text response.\n* Then, for the `responseBody`, I need to extract the actual content from the Google Docs node's output. Typically, when a Google Docs node retrieves document content, it places it in a field like `content` or `text`. So, I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression takes the `content` property from the JSON output of the previous node (the Google Docs node) and uses it as the body of the response. This is a common and flexible way to pass data between nodes.\n\nFinally, while building the workflow, I'd also make sure to set the workflow's overall properties. The user requested a specific name: \"GetOnboardingFileResponsibleAIuse\". I'd set this in the workflow settings. And importantly, the prompt specified several tags: \"Onboarding\", \"Files\", \"PromptEngineer\", and \"Day 2\". These would be added to the workflow's metadata, making it easier to organize and find later. The `active` flag would be set to `true` to ensure the workflow is ready to be executed.\n\nThat completes the workflow. It's a straightforward sequence: trigger, fetch, respond. Each node serves a clear, distinct purpose in achieving the overall goal." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then connects to a Monday.com node configured to retrieve (get) data from board ID `663435997`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"boardId\": \"663435997\", \"operation\": \"get\"}, \"name\": \"Monday.com\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.mondayCom\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Monday.com\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants a workflow that starts manually and then fetches data from Monday.com. This gives me a clear direction for the core components.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. The user explicitly asked for a \"manual trigger.\" So, the most straightforward way to achieve that is to use the **Manual Trigger** node. I'll drop that onto the canvas. Its full type would be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the version for this particular configuration is `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it literally creates an execution whenever I click the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n interface. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters for its basic operation, so I'll leave its `parameters` as an empty object `{}`. It simply serves as the kick-off point, sending a single item to the next node to signal the start of the process.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next logical step, as per the request, is to interact with Monday.com to \"retrieve (get) data.\" For any integration with a specific service like Monday.com, n8n usually provides a dedicated node. In this case, the **Monday.com** node is exactly what we need. So, I'll pull that node onto the canvas and connect it directly from the output of the Manual Trigger node. This means the data flow, which in this case is just a single empty item from the trigger, will initiate the Monday.com operation. The node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.mondayCom`, and for this setup, its `typeVersion` is also `1`.\n\nNow, let's configure this **Monday.com** node to perform the specific task. Looking at the requirements, we need to \"retrieve (get) data\" from a specific board.\n* The `operation` parameter is key here. To retrieve data, we'll set the `operation` to `\"get\"`. This tells the Monday.com node that its job is to fetch existing information, rather than creating, updating, or deleting anything.\n* Next, the request specifies a `board ID`. The JSON indicates `boardId: \"663435997\"`. This is crucial because it tells the node *which* specific Monday.com board we want to pull data from. Without this, the node wouldn't know where to look. So, I'll set the `boardId` parameter to that exact ID.\n* Finally, for the Monday.com node to actually communicate with Monday.com, it needs authentication. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"mondayComApi\": \"monday\"}`. This indicates that a pre-configured credential set, likely named \"monday\" and of the `mondayComApi` type, would be used. This credential set would contain the necessary API key or access token to securely connect to the Monday.com account and perform the requested operation. I don't need to specify the actual token here, just reference the name of the credential to be used.\n\nSo, to recap the connection: the `manualTrigger` node, named \"On clicking 'execute'\", has its `main` output connected to the `main` input of the `Monday.com` node. This ensures a sequential flow, where the manual trigger fires, and then the Monday.com node executes its configured operation to get data from the specified board. This setup aligns perfectly with the user's request for a manual start followed by a data retrieval from Monday.com." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then reads all JPG binary files from the `\/data\/lol\/` directory.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [270, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileSelector\": \"\/data\/lol\/*.jpg\"}, \"name\": \"Read Binary Files\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFiles\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [470, 320]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Read Binary Files\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's lay out the plan for this n8n workflow. The user wants a workflow that kicks off manually and then grabs all JPG files from a specific directory. This sounds like a fairly straightforward two-step process.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly states it should \"start with a manual trigger.\" This is great because n8n has a dedicated node for this. I'll go ahead and add the `Manual Trigger` node. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and looking at the provided JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it allows a user to initiate the workflow directly from the n8n interface by simply clicking the \"Execute Workflow\" button. For this particular trigger, there are no special parameters to configure; it just needs to be present to provide that initial signal to start the execution. I'll name it something intuitive, like \"On clicking 'execute',\" matching the JSON.\n\nNow, once the workflow is triggered, the next action is to \"read all JPG binary files from the `\/data\/lol\/` directory.\" This clearly indicates a need to interact with the file system. n8n offers several nodes for file operations. Since we're dealing with \"binary files\" and specifically images like JPGs, the `Read Binary Files` node is the most appropriate choice. It's designed to ingest files as binary data, which is exactly what an image file is.\n\nSo, I'll add the `Read Binary Files` node. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFiles`, and the JSON shows its `typeVersion` as `1`.\n\nNext, I need to connect these two nodes. The `Manual Trigger`'s job is to send an item (or signal) downstream to initiate the next step. So, a simple `main` connection from the `Manual Trigger` to the `Read Binary Files` node is what's required. This means that as soon as someone clicks to execute the workflow, the `Read Binary Files` node will receive that signal and start its operation. The `connections` section in the JSON confirms this, showing the `On clicking 'execute'` node's `main` output flowing into the `Read Binary Files` node's `main` input.\n\nFinally, I need to configure the `Read Binary Files` node to target the correct files. The prompt specified two key pieces of information: the directory (`\/data\/lol\/`) and the file type (`JPG`). The `Read Binary Files` node has a parameter called `fileSelector` that is perfect for this. This parameter allows me to specify a path, and crucially, it supports wildcards for pattern matching. To select all JPG files within that directory, I'll set the `fileSelector` to `\/data\/lol\/*.jpg`. The `*.jpg` part will ensure that only files ending with `.jpg` are picked up, and the `\/data\/lol\/` part ensures they come from the correct directory. This perfectly aligns with the parameters section for the `Read Binary Files` node in the provided JSON.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The workflow is now set up to start manually and then proceed to read all the specified JPG files. There are no further actions requested or indicated in the JSON, so this two-node setup fulfills all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named \"My workflow\". It should contain a single Jira Trigger node configured to listen for \"jira:version_released\" events, using Jira Software Cloud API credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"events\": [\"jira:version_released\"], \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Jira Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.jiraTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1140, 540]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's think about how we'd build this n8n workflow from scratch, based on what the user wants and the structure laid out in this JSON.\n\nFirst, I always like to start by understanding the overall goal. The prompt clearly states: \"Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'My workflow'. It should contain a single Jira Trigger node configured to listen for 'jira:version_released' events, using Jira Software Cloud API credentials.\" This gives me a very clear direction.\n\nThe first thing I'd do is set up the basic workflow properties. The name needs to be \"My workflow,\" which is straightforward. And critically, the prompt specifies \"inactive.\" So, right off the bat, I'd make sure the workflow's overall `active` status is set to `false`. This means it won't be running or listening for events until manually activated.\n\nNow, onto the actual logic. The core requirement is to react to Jira events. When I think about listening for external events in n8n, a \"Trigger\" node is always the starting point. It's designed specifically for this purpose \u2013 to kick off a workflow when a certain event occurs.\n\nLooking at the JSON, I see there's only one node, and its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.jiraTrigger`. This makes perfect sense. If I need to listen for Jira events, the Jira Trigger node is the most direct and appropriate choice. It's built exactly for integrating with Jira's webhooks. I also see its `typeVersion` is `1`. This indicates the version of the node's functionality. While newer versions might offer additional features or slightly different parameter names, version 1 is what's specified, and it clearly supports the required functionality. If it were a different version, I'd consider if any parameters might have changed, but for a basic trigger, it's usually quite stable across minor versions.\n\nSo, I'd drag the Jira Trigger node onto the canvas. Next, I'd need to configure it.\n\nThe prompt specifically says to listen for `\"jira:version_released\"` events. I know that the Jira Trigger node has an `events` parameter where you can specify which Jira events it should subscribe to. So, I'd go into the node's settings and add `\"jira:version_released\"` to the list of events. This is the crucial part that tells the node *what* to listen for. The JSON confirms this setting under `parameters.events`.\n\nThen, there's the matter of credentials. The prompt mentions \"Jira Software Cloud API credentials.\" The Jira Trigger node needs to authenticate with Jira to set up the webhook and receive events. So, in the node's credential section, I would link a pre-configured Jira Software Cloud API credential. The JSON shows `credentials.jiraSoftwareCloudApi` with a generic ID and name, indicating that such a credential would be selected and linked here. This credential holds the secure information needed to communicate with Jira, like API tokens or OAuth details. I'd never put actual sensitive values directly in the workflow itself, always using n8n's credential management system.\n\nI see an `additionalFields` object in the parameters, which is empty (`{}`). This tells me that no extra filtering or specific options, beyond the event type, are needed for this trigger, keeping the configuration minimal and focused on the core requirement.\n\nThe `webhookId` is also present in the JSON. This is an internal ID that n8n generates when the trigger is activated (or would be when it *is* activated) to identify the specific webhook registered with Jira. It's not something I'd manually configure but rather something n8n uses behind the scenes.\n\nFinally, the `position` data (`[1140, 540]`) just dictates where the node appears on the n8n canvas. It's purely for layout and doesn't affect the workflow's logic.\n\nSince the prompt only asks for a \"single Jira Trigger node,\" there are no subsequent nodes to connect. This workflow is purely about reacting to an event. If the requirement were, for example, to *then* send an email or update another system, I'd then think about what node would follow this trigger and how data (like the details of the released Jira version) would flow from the Jira Trigger output to the next node's input. But for this specific case, it's a self-contained trigger.\n\nSo, to recap, the process is: define overall workflow properties (name, inactive status), select the appropriate trigger node (`n8n-nodes-base.jiraTrigger` for Jira events), configure it to listen for the specific event (`jira:version_released`), and link the necessary Jira Software Cloud API credentials for authentication. That's it; a simple, single-node workflow ready to be activated when needed." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that uses a manual trigger to fetch all customer records from a 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to manually trigger a process to fetch customer records and then pass that data directly into an 'Edit Fields' node.\n\nSo, where do we start? Every workflow needs a trigger. Since the prompt specifies a \"manual trigger,\" that's the obvious first choice. I'll add a **Manual Trigger** node. Its node type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it allows someone to kick off the workflow simply by clicking a button in the n8n interface, which aligns exactly with the \"manual trigger\" requirement. There aren't any specific parameters to configure for this node; its purpose is simply to initiate the execution flow.\n\nNext, once the workflow is triggered, we need to actually get the customer data. The prompt mentions fetching \"all customer records from a 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node.\" This points directly to a specific node designed for this purpose. So, I'll connect the output of my \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" (Manual Trigger) node to a **Customer Datastore (n8n training)** node. This node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`, and it's `typeVersion: 1`. The connection will be a standard `main` connection, flowing from the trigger's `main` output.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Customer Datastore node to get *all* records? I'll need to look at its parameters. The JSON shows `{\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}`. This is exactly what I need. I'll set the 'Operation' parameter to 'Get All People'. This ensures that when the node executes, it retrieves every customer record available from that training datastore. I wouldn't want to specify a particular ID or filter here, as the prompt asks for \"all customer records.\" The data I expect to get back, as indicated by the `pinData` in the JSON, includes fields like `id`, `name`, `email`, `notes`, `country`, and `created`. This looks like a complete set of customer information, which is great.\n\nFinally, the retrieved data needs to be \"passed directly to an 'Edit Fields' node.\" This means the output of the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node should feed directly into an 'Edit Fields' node. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the Customer Datastore node to the `main` input of the new **Edit Fields** node. This node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is `3.4`.\n\nThe 'Edit Fields' (or 'Set') node is incredibly versatile for manipulating data. Its purpose here, according to the prompt, is to *receive* the data. Let's look at its configuration in the JSON: `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": []}, \"includeOtherFields\": true, \"options\": {}}`.\nThe key parameter here is `includeOtherFields: true`. This is crucial. If this were set to `false`, the 'Edit Fields' node would only output fields that I explicitly define in its 'Assignments' section. But the prompt just says the data is \"passed directly,\" implying we want all the fields we just fetched \u2013 `id`, `name`, `email`, `country`, etc. By keeping `includeOtherFields` set to `true`, the node will pass through all the incoming fields from the previous node, even if I don't add any specific field assignments. Since `assignments` is an empty array (`[]`), no new fields will be added, and no existing fields will be modified or renamed. This effectively makes the 'Edit Fields' node act as a pass-through in this specific configuration, confirming that the data is indeed \"passed directly\" without modification, which is exactly what the prompt asks for in this final step. It just receives the data and makes it available for subsequent nodes, should we add any later." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers daily at 9 AM to fetch the current temperature for Berlin from OpenWeatherMap.

For anything time-based and recurring in n8n, the \"Cron\" node is the go-to. It's specifically designed for scheduling. So, that's where I'd start.\n\nI'd drag a \"Cron\" node onto the canvas. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.cron` and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it allows precise scheduling. For the \"daily at 9 AM\" requirement, I'd open its parameters. Within the `triggerTimes` field, I'd add an item and set the `hour` to `9`. This ensures the workflow will execute exactly at 9 o'clock every day. Its position on the canvas, `[490, 380]`, makes sense as a starting point for the workflow.\n\nNext, once the workflow is triggered, we need to \"fetch the current temperature for Berlin from OpenWeatherMap.\" This immediately tells me I'll need an \"OpenWeatherMap\" node. There's a dedicated node for interacting with the OpenWeatherMap API, which simplifies the process considerably.\n\nI'd add an \"OpenWeatherMap\" node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap` and `typeVersion` is `1`. Now, how does it get activated? It needs to run *after* the Cron node triggers. So, I'd connect the \"Cron\" node's `main` output to the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node's `main` input. This establishes the flow: trigger, then fetch weather. For its configuration, the prompt specifies \"Berlin,\" so within the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node's parameters, I'd set the `cityName` field to `\"berlin\"`. To actually fetch the data, this node will need credentials for the OpenWeatherMap API. A generic API key credential, indicated as `openWeatherMapApi` (e.g., named \"owm\"), would be configured there. Its position, `[690, 380]`, visually places it after the Cron node, which is logical.\n\nFinally, the temperature needs to be \"send a Line message containing this temperature in the format 'Hey! The temperature outside is X\u00b0C.'\" This clearly calls for a \"Line\" node.\n\nI'd add a \"Line\" node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.line` and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node needs to receive the data from the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node, specifically the temperature. So, I'd connect the \"OpenWeatherMap\" node's `main` output to the \"Line\" node's `main` input. This ensures that the Line message is sent only after the temperature has been successfully retrieved. Now for the message content. The prompt specifies a very particular format: \"Hey! The temperature outside is X\u00b0C.\" This \"X\" needs to be dynamic, pulling the temperature from the previous \"OpenWeatherMap\" node. Looking at the typical output of the OpenWeatherMap node, the temperature usually resides under `json.main.temp`. So, I'd set the `message` parameter in the Line node to an expression: `\"=Hey! The temperature outside is {{$node[\\\"OpenWeatherMap\\\"].json[\\\"main\\\"][\\\"temp\\\"]}}\\u00b0C.\"`. The `\\u00b0C` is the correct Unicode for the degree Celsius symbol. Like the OpenWeatherMap node, the Line node requires credentials to send messages. A Line Notify OAuth2 API credential, indicated as `lineNotifyOAuth2Api` (e.g., named \"line-credentials\"), would be set up here. Its position at `[890, 380]` marks it as the final step in this linear workflow.\n\nOnce all these nodes are in place and configured, and the connections are made, the workflow `active: false` state in the JSON means it's currently dormant. To make it run daily, it would need to be manually activated." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Search DB'. It should start with a trigger and then use a 'Set' node (named 'Edit Fields') to add a new field called 'response' with the string value '10 results found'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Search DB\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [640, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"10 results found\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [860, 380]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed.\n\nFirst things first, the user prompt specifies the name of the workflow: \"Search DB\". So, I'll set that up right away, giving our new workflow a clear, descriptive identity.\n\nNow, every n8n workflow needs a starting point. The prompt simply says \"It should start with a trigger,\" which is pretty standard. When I think about what kind of trigger to use for a basic workflow that doesn't have a specific external event like a webhook or a schedule, the `Execute Workflow Trigger` node is a perfect fit. It's a simple, manual way to kick off the workflow for testing or when it's initiated internally. This node has the type `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. For this straightforward start, it doesn't really need any specific parameters configured; its job is just to get things moving. I'll place it as the very first node in our canvas.\n\nAfter the workflow is triggered, the next step is to actually do something with the data, or in this case, generate some data. The prompt clearly states that we need to \"use a 'Set' node (named 'Edit Fields') to add a new field called 'response' with the string value '10 results found'.\"\n\nSo, my next logical step is to add a `Set` node. This node type, `n8n-nodes-base.set`, is specifically designed for manipulating data items: adding new fields, modifying existing ones, or even removing them. It's incredibly versatile for shaping the data as it flows through the workflow. The JSON specifies `typeVersion` `3.4` for this node, which means I'm working with a relatively recent iteration, likely offering improved features or stability over older versions, though for simple field assignment, the core functionality would be consistent across many versions.\n\nI'll make sure to name this `Set` node \"Edit Fields\" as requested. This makes the workflow very readable and clear about what this particular step is accomplishing.\n\nNow, for the configuration of this \"Edit Fields\" node. The goal is to add a new field named \"response\" with a specific string value. Inside the `Set` node's parameters, there's a section for \"Assignments.\" This is where I define what new fields to add or what existing fields to modify.\n\nI'll add a new assignment.\n* The `Name` of the new field will be \"response\".\n* The `Value` for this field will be the string \"10 results found\".\n* And importantly, I'll specify the `Type` of this value as \"string\" to ensure it's treated as plain text.\nI won't need to touch any other options like \"Merge Data\" or \"Keep Only Set\" because the default behavior of adding the new field to the existing item is exactly what's required here. The `Execute Workflow Trigger` node would typically output an empty item or a basic item, and the `Set` node will then enrich that item with our new 'response' field.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The output of my \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node needs to feed directly into the input of my \"Edit Fields\" `Set` node. This ensures that when the trigger fires, the flow of execution, and any initial data (even if it's just an empty item from the trigger), passes directly to the `Set` node so it can perform its operation of adding the 'response' field. So, the `main` output of \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" will connect to the `main` input of \"Edit Fields.\"\n\nThat should complete the workflow as described." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON starting with a \"Schedule Trigger\" node (A) configured for an empty interval.

The goal here is pretty specific: a Schedule Trigger, followed by two Set nodes, with some particular configurations.\n\nFirst things first, any workflow needs a starting point. The prompt explicitly says we need to \"start with a 'Schedule Trigger' node (A)\". This is perfect, as a Schedule Trigger node is designed to kick off a workflow at specified intervals or, as in this case, to be a primary trigger that might be invoked manually if the interval is truly empty.\n\nSo, I'd bring in a **Schedule Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1.2`. This specific type is ideal because it's built for time-based or manual workflow initiation.\n\nNow, how should I configure this Schedule Trigger? The prompt says \"configured for an empty interval\". This is a bit unusual for a schedule, as you typically want it to run periodically. However, an \"empty interval\" means the `rule` parameter should reflect that. In n8n's configuration, an empty interval is often represented by an empty array for the `interval` property within the `rule`. So, I'll set its parameters like this: `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This means there are no specific time units (like minutes, hours, days) defined, effectively making it a trigger that wouldn't run on its own schedule, perhaps intended for manual execution or as a conceptual starting point for a data flow. I'd place it at `[0, 0]` on the canvas \u2013 the logical starting point. And I'd label it \"A\" as requested, with a unique ID.\n\nNext, the prompt says to \"Connect it to a 'Set' node (B)\". So, the output of my Schedule Trigger (Node A) needs to feed into a Set node. A **Set** node is fantastic for manipulating data that flows through the workflow. It allows you to add new fields, modify existing ones, or even remove them. In this scenario, it seems we're going to be adding data.\n\nI'd add a Set node to the canvas. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and the `typeVersion` from the JSON is `3.4`. I'll draw a connection from the main output of Node A to the main input of Node B. This ensures that whatever (likely an empty item) Node A generates, flows into Node B for processing. I'd position it to the right of Node A, say at `[220, 0]`, and name it \"B\".\n\nNow, for Node B's configuration. The prompt specifies \"containing one empty assignment\". This means I need to go into the Set node's parameters and add an assignment where both the name and value of the new field are empty. This is useful if you want to initialize a placeholder field or ensure a field exists even if it's currently empty. So, its `parameters` will include `{\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"...\", \"name\": \"\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}}`. The `id` is just a unique identifier for that specific assignment within the node, which n8n generates automatically. The `name` and `value` being empty strings, and `type` being `string`, perfectly match the requirement for an \"empty assignment\".\n\nFinally, the prompt states that Node B \"then connects to another 'Set' node (C)\". This means another Set node will be the final step in this very basic workflow.\n\nSo, I'll add a third node, another **Set** node. Again, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.4`. I'll connect the main output of Node B to the main input of this new Node C. This ensures that the data item, now potentially containing that one empty assignment from Node B, flows onward. I'd place it to the right of Node B, maybe at `[440, 0]`, and label it \"C\".\n\nFor Node C's configuration, the prompt doesn't specify any assignments, just that it's another Set node. Looking at the JSON, its `parameters` are simply `{\"options\": {}}`, which means it has no assignments configured. It will simply act as a pass-through node, taking whatever data comes from Node B and passing it along without modification. This is a common pattern for the end of a very simple flow or as a placeholder for future logic. It's often used to just collect the output or to signify the end of a particular branch in a more complex workflow.\n\nAnd that completes the structure described in the prompt. The Schedule Trigger initiates, the first Set node adds an empty field, and the second Set node simply passes the result through." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object for an inactive workflow definition named \"Email with attachement workflow\".

The first thing I need to do when creating any new workflow in n8n is to define its core metadata \u2013 essentially, its identity and initial state.\n\nSo, I'm starting with a blank canvas for the workflow definition itself, which will be a JSON object.\n\nFirst up, the `name`. The prompt is very clear on this: \"Email with attachement workflow\". That's straightforward, I'll set the `name` property to `\"Email with attachement workflow\"`.\n\nNext, the `active` status. The prompt specifies \"an inactive workflow definition\". So, I'll set `active` to `false`. This is important; it means that even if I were to add nodes later, this workflow wouldn't automatically run until it's explicitly turned on.\n\nThen, the timestamps. The prompt wants `createdAt` and `updatedAt` to be \"January 10, 2025\". I'll format this into the standard ISO 8601 string that n8n uses, so it will look something like `2025-01-10T09:47:10.690Z`. I'll set both `createdAt` and `updatedAt` to this specific date and time. It's common for these to be the same when a workflow is initially defined and hasn't been modified yet.\n\nNow, for the unique identifiers. The prompt asks for \"random unique IDs for `id` and `versionId`\". These are critical for n8n to manage and track workflows. The `id` is a unique identifier for *this specific workflow instance*, and the `versionId` is for *this particular version* of the workflow. I'll simply generate or use placeholder unique strings for these, like `PHDCwIHrBgKLKvWY` for `id` and `47fde56a-25ad-4fa8-92ca-10961b35995f` for `versionId`. In a real system, these would be automatically generated upon creation.\n\nMoving on to `settings`. The prompt explicitly states to \"ensure `executionOrder: 'v1'`\". This is a crucial setting that dictates how the nodes within the workflow will process data. `v1` is a common and often preferred execution model, ensuring a predictable flow of data through the nodes. So, within the `settings` object, I'll add `{\"executionOrder\": \"v1\"}`.\n\nAt this point, I've defined the core metadata and global settings for the workflow. Looking at the prompt, it asks for \"a JSON object for an inactive workflow definition\". It doesn't specify any actual *steps* or *tasks* that the workflow should perform.\n\nTherefore, the `nodes` array and the `connections` object will both be empty (`\"nodes\": []`, `\"connections\": {}`). This makes perfect sense, as I'm just creating the initial definition; I haven't added any logic or functional blocks yet. A workflow often starts its life as an empty shell before any specific automation steps are designed.\n\nFinally, there are some other standard n8n workflow properties like `staticData`, `meta`, `pinData`, `triggerCount`, and `tags`. These are typically initialized to `null`, empty objects, or zero when a workflow is first created. `staticData` and `meta` are often for internal n8n use or advanced configurations not needed at this stage, so they'll be `null`. `pinData` is an empty object for any pinned notes. `triggerCount` starts at `0` because the workflow hasn't been executed yet, and `tags` is an empty array because no organizational tags have been applied to it.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The resulting JSON object now accurately represents an inactive n8n workflow definition with the specified name, timestamps, IDs, and execution order settings, ready to have nodes added to it at a later stage." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object for an inactive workflow named 'Fin Calls Reports' with ID `u3Y8NPVdzogwNo5s`.

The request is to generate a JSON object for an *inactive* workflow, which is a great starting point because it means we're setting up the structure without diving into complex node logic immediately. This is like laying the foundation before building the house.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow is represented as a single JSON object. So, I'll start with the main curly braces `{}`.\n\nThe prompt specifies a few high-level attributes right away.\n* It needs a `createdAt` timestamp, which is '2025-03-06T09:37:12.268Z'. This is straightforward; I'll just add `\"createdAt\": \"2025-03-06T09:37:12.268Z\"`.\n* Similarly, `updatedAt` is the same value, '2025-03-06T09:37:12.268Z'. So, I'll add `\"updatedAt\": \"2025-03-06T09:37:12.268Z\"`. These timestamps are crucial for auditing and understanding the lifecycle of the workflow.\n* Then there's the unique identifier for this workflow, `id`, which is `u3Y8NPVdzogwNo5s`. I'll set `\"id\": \"u3Y8NPVdzogwNo5s\"`. This is how n8n keeps track of individual workflows.\n* The workflow needs a `name`, which is \"Fin Calls Reports\". So, `\"name\": \"Fin Calls Reports\"` goes in. This is human-readable and helps users identify the workflow in the UI.\n\nNow, a very important part of the prompt: \"an inactive workflow\". This directly translates to setting the `active` property to `false`. So, I'll add `\"active\": false`. This means even if it has triggers, it won't execute until explicitly activated.\n\nThe prompt then asks for `versionId` to be '12ebf7f5-1254-486f-b5f1-b25795bf0ef4'. This identifies the specific version of the workflow definition. It's great for tracking changes and reverting if needed. So, `\"versionId\": \"12ebf7f5-1254-486f-b5f1-b25795bf0ef4\"`.\n\nNext, `triggerCount` should be 0. For a newly created or inactive workflow, it makes perfect sense that it hasn't been triggered yet. So, `\"triggerCount\": 0`.\n\nThe prompt also specifies that \"other arrays and objects are empty and null fields remain null.\" This is key for defining the *lack* of content in this initial state.\n* `nodes`: This is where all the actual workflow logic, the individual steps, would live. Since this is an inactive, newly defined workflow without any functional steps yet, the `nodes` array should be empty. So, `\"nodes\": []`. There are no specific node types to consider yet because there are no nodes!\n* `connections`: This object describes how the output of one node connects to the input of another. With an empty `nodes` array, there are obviously no connections. So, `\"connections\": {}`. It's an empty object because connections are typically structured by node IDs.\n* `staticData`: This field is often used for data that needs to persist across workflow executions, like counters or flags. Since we're just setting up the basic structure, there's no need for any persistent data yet. So, `\"staticData\": null`.\n* `meta`: This field is for additional metadata about the workflow itself, perhaps for internal n8n use or custom user tags not covered by the `tags` array. For now, it's not needed, so `\"meta\": null`.\n* `pinData`: This object stores data related to how the workflow appears in the editor, like pinned items. For a programmatically generated workflow, it's typically an empty object. So, `\"pinData\": {}`.\n* `tags`: This is an array for categorizing workflows. Since no specific tags were requested and the prompt implies emptying arrays, `\"tags\": []` is appropriate.\n\nFinally, there's a specific instruction for `settings.executionOrder` to be 'v1'. The `settings` object holds global configurations for the workflow's execution. `executionOrder` determines how the workflow engine processes nodes. 'v1' is the standard, sequential execution model. So, I'll add a `settings` object containing this property: `\"settings\": {\"executionOrder\": \"v1\"}`.\n\nSo, taking all these pieces together, the JSON structure should look complete.

The prompt explicitly states \"starting with a Webhook,\" which is perfect. A Webhook node is the ideal choice for an external system to initiate our workflow by sending an HTTP request. This gives us a dedicated entry point.\n\nSo, I'll begin by adding a **Webhook** node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, which is exactly what we need for receiving web requests.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1`, indicating we're using a stable version of this node.\n* For its configuration, the `name` \"Webhook\" is straightforward and descriptive.\n* It has a `path` parameter, which is where the specific URL segment for this webhook endpoint would be defined. This path is crucial because it's the unique identifier that external systems will use to send data to *this specific* workflow. There's also an internal `webhookId` that helps n8n identify it.\n* The `options` are empty, meaning we're not setting any advanced features like response modes or authentication methods for the webhook itself right now, which is fine for a basic setup.\n\nNow that we have our entry point, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"Connect it to a PostHog node that tracks an event.\" This tells me exactly what the next node should be. After the Webhook receives data, we need to process it and send it to PostHog.\n\nTherefore, the next node to add is a **PostHog** node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.postHog`, which is the dedicated integration for interacting with the PostHog API. This is definitely the right tool for tracking events.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1`, consistent with the JSON, ensuring compatibility.\n* Now, how do we connect these two? The data from the Webhook needs to be passed to the PostHog node. A simple, direct connection from the \"main\" output of the Webhook node to the \"main\" input of the PostHog node is perfect for this. This ensures that whatever information the Webhook receives will be available for the PostHog node to use.\n\nLet's configure the PostHog node's parameters:\n* The `name` \"PostHog\" is clear.\n* The prompt specifies using the `eventName` from `{{$json[\"query\"][\"event\"]}}`. This is a critical piece of dynamic configuration. Looking at the JSON, this is implemented using an expression: `={{$json[\"query\"][\"event\"]}}`. This means that when the Webhook receives a request, the `event` parameter from its URL query string (e.g., `?event=user_signed_up`) will be extracted and used as the name of the event tracked in PostHog. This makes the workflow very flexible, allowing it to track different event types based on the incoming webhook data.\n* Next, the `distinctId` is specified as `'n8n'`. The JSON correctly sets this to the static string \"n8n\". This implies that all events tracked by this PostHog node in this workflow will be associated with a distinct user identifier of \"n8n\" within PostHog. This might be useful for segmenting internal system-generated events, differentiating them from user-generated events.\n* `additionalFields` is an empty object. This is where we would add any extra properties or context about the event, like user properties or specific details about the action that occurred, if they were needed. For this basic setup, it's not required.\n* Finally, the `credentials` are set to `PostHog Credentials`. This indicates that the node requires authentication to connect to the PostHog API. These would be pre-configured credentials within n8n, typically containing an API key or project ID that allows n8n to send data securely to the correct PostHog project. I don't need to know the actual values, just that this is where they're linked.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It's a straightforward, linear flow: trigger by webhook, then track a dynamically named event in PostHog." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a manual trigger that connects to a Freshdesk node, configured to find open tickets for the requester email 'user@example.com' using 'freshdesk-api' credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"status\": \"open\", \"options\": {}, \"requester\": \"email\", \"requesterIdentificationValue\": \"user@example.com\"}, \"name\": \"Freshdesk\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.freshdesk\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Freshdesk\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow built. I'm thinking about how to set this up from scratch, aiming to meet the user's request for a Freshdesk workflow to find open tickets for a specific requester.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick it off. The user specifically asked for a \"manual trigger,\" which is pretty straightforward.\n\nSo, I'd start by dragging in a **Manual Trigger** node. This is of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it allows someone to just click a button in the n8n UI to execute the workflow whenever they need to. It doesn't need any complex configuration; its purpose is simply to initiate the flow of data. I'd place it somewhere logical, like at the beginning of my canvas.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The core of the request is to interact with Freshdesk to find tickets. This immediately tells me I'll need a Freshdesk node.\n\nI'll add the **Freshdesk** node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.freshdesk`, and again, it's `typeVersion: 1` as per the JSON. This is the dedicated node for integrating with Freshdesk's API, so it's the obvious choice.\n\nHow do these two connect? The manual trigger needs to pass control to the Freshdesk node. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (our manual trigger) node to the `main` input of the \"Freshdesk\" node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the Freshdesk operation will follow.\n\nNow, let's configure this Freshdesk node. This is where the specifics of the request come into play.\n\nThe user wants to \"find open tickets.\" So, looking at the Freshdesk node's parameters, there's usually a \"Status\" field. I'd set that to \"open\" to filter for only those tickets that are currently active and not resolved or closed. This directly addresses the \"open tickets\" part of the prompt.\n\nNext, it's about finding tickets for a \"requester email 'user@example.com'\". This means I need to tell Freshdesk *how* to identify the requester, and then provide the specific identifier. There's a \"Requester\" parameter, and I'd select \"email\" there. This tells the node to expect an email address to identify the requester.\n\nImmediately following that, there's typically a \"Requester Identification Value\" field. This is where the actual email address, like the one provided in the prompt, would go. I'd put the specific requester's email address in that field. It's crucial that this value is accurate for the query to work correctly.\n\nFinally, the request mentions \"using 'freshdesk-api' credentials.\" The Freshdesk node will have a section for credentials. I'd link it to the pre-configured Freshdesk API credentials that handle the authentication, which the JSON names `freshdesk-api`. This credential setup ensures the workflow has the necessary authorization to communicate with the Freshdesk service. Without this, the node wouldn't be able to make any API calls.\n\nFor now, I don't see any other specific options needed for this basic query, so the \"Options\" field can remain at its default, likely an empty object `{}`.\n\nAnd that's it. We have a manual trigger connected to a Freshdesk node, configured to look for open tickets by a specific requester's email, all using the correct credentials." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile Workflow Testing and Validation\" that is triggered by a webhook at `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/WorkflowTestingAndValidation`.

The goal is pretty clear: we need to kick things off with a webhook, pull some content from a Google Doc, and then send that content right back as the webhook's response. We'll also make sure it's properly tagged for organization.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Since the prompt specifies a webhook trigger at a particular path, the obvious choice for our initial node is going to be the **Webhook** node. This is a `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, and we'll use `typeVersion: 2`. I'll place this at the very beginning of our canvas, at `[0, 0]`.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Webhook node? The prompt states the path should be `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/WorkflowTestingAndValidation`. So, I'll set the `path` parameter to that exact string. This tells n8n exactly where to listen for incoming requests.\n\nA critical setting for this Webhook node is its `responseMode`. The requirement is to fetch content *and then* respond with it. This means the Webhook node itself shouldn't send an immediate, default response. Instead, we need another node later in the workflow to handle the response. So, I'll set `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This ensures the workflow will wait for an explicit `Respond to Webhook` node to send the final reply, giving us time to process the Google Doc. If I didn't set this, the webhook might close before we've even had a chance to fetch the document!\n\nOkay, so we've got our trigger set up. What's next? The prompt says we need to \"fetch the content from the Google Doc.\" For that, we'll need a node that can interact with Google Docs. The `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` node is perfect for this. I'll add this node and position it right after our Webhook, let's say at `[220, 0]`.\n\nWithin the **Google Docs** node (which is `typeVersion: 2`), the operation we need is to \"get\" a document's content. So, I'll set the `operation` parameter to `get`. This node typically needs credentials to access documents, especially if they aren't publicly shared, so we'll ensure an appropriate Google Docs OAuth2 API credential is configured there. This allows n8n to authenticate with Google on our behalf. The document URL itself would be configured in the `documentURL` parameter. This is how the node knows which specific Google Doc to retrieve. The node, once it runs, should output the content of that document, usually in a field like `content`.\n\nNow that we have the trigger and the data fetching in place, how do we connect them? The `Webhook` node's `main` output should connect directly to the `Google Docs` node's `main` input. This means that once a webhook request comes in, it triggers the Google Docs node to start fetching the document. The data flow here is straightforward: trigger, then act.\n\nFinally, after we've retrieved the document content, we need to send it back as the webhook's response. For this, we'll use the `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` node. This is `typeVersion: 1.1`. I'll place it after the Google Docs node, at `[440, 0]`.\n\nThe **Respond to Webhook** node is where we define what gets sent back. The prompt specifically asks for the content as \"plain text.\" So, I'll set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`. And for the actual content of the response, we need to use the data that came out of the Google Docs node. I'll configure the `responseBody` parameter to use an expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression tells the node to look at the data coming into it (which will be the output from the Google Docs node) and grab whatever is in the `content` field. This is how we ensure the fetched document content is what's returned.\n\nThe connection here is also simple and logical: the `Google Docs` node's `main` output will connect to the `Respond to Webhook` node's `main` input. This ensures that the document content is passed from the Google Docs node to the Respond to Webhook node, allowing it to formulate the correct response.\n\nAnd that completes the core logic of the workflow. We have the trigger, the action, and the response. Just to wrap things up and make it discoverable, the prompt also mentioned including specific tags: 'Onboarding', 'Files', 'AI Onboarding', and 'Day 2'. These would be configured at the workflow level, outside of the individual node parameters, making it easier to categorize and search for this workflow later." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFileWorkflowagents\" that starts with a webhook trigger, then reads content from the Google Doc URL `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1oxSUjNR_Si5UaX7AfWy0r5tGt2IfbP8GKK7DjBo92Mw\/view`, and finally responds to the webhook with the `content` property from the Google Docs output.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFileWorkflowagents\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"ae9e02ab-d8ce-4954-9bcd-da44e0efba22\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1oxSUjNR_Si5UaX7AfWy0r5tGt2IfbP8GKK7DjBo92Mw\/view\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start thinking about how to build this workflow step by step, following the user's request and the provided JSON structure.\n\nFirst, the request clearly states that the workflow needs to \"start with a webhook trigger.\" This immediately tells me what my first node has to be. I'll need a node that can listen for incoming HTTP requests.\n\nSo, I'd add a **Webhook** node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and the `typeVersion` is `2`. This is the standard trigger node in n8n for initiating workflows via an external HTTP call.\n* For its configuration, the `path` property is going to be some unique identifier that forms part of the webhook URL. That's usually generated or set by the user when they first activate the webhook.\n* Crucially, the `responseMode` here is set to `responseNode`. This is important because the workflow isn't just going to trigger and immediately respond. It needs to do some work first (read a Google Doc) and *then* respond with the result of that work. Setting `responseMode` to `responseNode` means this Webhook trigger will wait for a later \"Respond to Webhook\" node to send the actual HTTP response back to the caller. This perfectly aligns with the prompt's requirement to respond *after* reading the Google Doc.\n* In terms of connections, as the starting node, it won't have any incoming connections, but it will pass its execution flow to the next node in the sequence.\n\nNow, after the webhook triggers, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"read content from the Google Doc URL.\" This tells me I need an integration with Google Docs.\n\nSo, the next logical node to add would be a **Google Docs** node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and the `typeVersion` is `2`. This node is specifically designed to interact with Google Docs, allowing operations like reading, writing, or creating documents.\n* I'll connect this node to the output of the \"Webhook\" node. This ensures that once the webhook is triggered, the workflow immediately proceeds to try and read the Google Doc.\n* Looking at its parameters, the `operation` must be set to `get`. This is the operation that retrieves the content of an existing Google Doc.\n* Then, there's the `documentURL` parameter. This is where the specific URL of the Google Doc that needs to be read would be configured. The prompt gives a specific URL, but in a general sense, any valid Google Doc URL could go here.\n* And of course, for any Google service integration, credentials are required. There would be a `credentials` property where an authenticated Google Docs account would be provided to allow n8n to access the document. This is essential for authorization.\n* This node, once executed, will output the content of the specified Google Doc, which the next node will then use.\n\nFinally, the prompt says to \"respond to the webhook with the `content` property from the Google Docs output.\" This means I need a node that can take the data from the Google Docs node and send it back as the response to the initial webhook call.\n\nThis brings me to the **Respond to Webhook** node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, and the `typeVersion` is `1.1`. This node is specifically designed to send the HTTP response back to the caller when the initial Webhook node was configured with `responseMode: responseNode`, which ours was.\n* I'll connect this node to the output of the \"Google Docs\" node. This ensures that the response is only sent *after* the Google Docs content has been successfully retrieved.\n* For its configuration, the `respondWith` parameter is set to `text`. This indicates that the response body will be plain text. The prompt asks for the \"content\" property, which is typically text extracted from the document, so `text` is an appropriate choice here. If the output was more complex structured data, `json` might be used, but for just the document's content, `text` is fine.\n* The `responseBody` is the most critical part here: `={{ $json.content }}`. This is an n8n expression. It dynamically pulls the `content` property from the data that the *previous* node (the \"Google Docs\" node) outputted. When the Google Docs \"get\" operation successfully reads a document, it typically provides the document's text under a `content` field. So, this expression correctly grabs that text and sends it as the response.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. The webhook triggers, the Google Doc is read, and its content is sent back as the response to the original webhook request. It's a straightforward, linear flow, perfectly addressing the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger. This trigger should then connect to an UpLead node configured to get information about the company \"Apple\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Get information about a company with UpLead\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"company\": \"Apple\"}, \"name\": \"Uplead\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.uplead\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Uplead\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The request is pretty clear: we need a workflow that kicks off manually and then uses UpLead to fetch information specifically about \"Apple.\" This sounds like a straightforward two-node setup.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, something to initiate its execution. The prompt explicitly mentions a \"manual trigger,\" and looking at the provided JSON, I see a node named \"On clicking 'execute'\" which is exactly what we need. This `manualTrigger` node, of `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`, is perfect for this. It's essentially just a button that, when clicked, starts the workflow. It doesn't typically require any specific parameters itself; its job is simply to provide that initial signal to the next node in the chain. Placing it at `[250, 300]` seems like a good starting position in the canvas.\n\nAlright, so with our trigger in place, what's next? The core requirement is to use UpLead to get company information. So, naturally, the very next node should be an UpLead node. I'm looking at the JSON, and there it is, a node named \"Uplead,\" with `type: n8n-nodes-base.uplead` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is the direct tool we need to interact with the UpLead API.\n\nNow, how do we get the trigger to talk to the UpLead node? We connect them. The `connections` section of the JSON shows `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Uplead\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This tells me that the \"main\" output of our `manualTrigger` node flows directly into the \"main\" input of the \"Uplead\" node. This is the standard way to pass execution flow and any potential data (though the manual trigger usually doesn't output much data itself, it just signals \"go\") from one node to the next. Positioning the UpLead node at `[450, 300]` makes sense, placing it directly to the right of the trigger, maintaining a clean, linear flow.\n\nNext, let's think about the configuration of this UpLead node. The prompt specifically asks for information about the company \"Apple.\" To achieve this, the UpLead node needs to know *which* company to look up. Looking at its `parameters` in the JSON, I see `{\"company\": \"Apple\"}`. This is exactly what we need. By setting the 'company' parameter to \"Apple,\" the node will send a request to the UpLead API to search for details related to the company named \"Apple.\" This parameter is crucial for the node to perform its intended function.\n\nFinally, for the UpLead node to actually communicate with the UpLead API, it needs credentials. The JSON shows `{\"upleadApi\": \"\"}` under `credentials`. This means that at runtime, this node would require an UpLead API key or similar authentication mechanism to be provided. Without valid credentials configured, the UpLead node wouldn't be able to make its API calls, even with the \"company\" parameter set. So, while I don't see the actual credential value here, I know this is where it would be securely stored and referenced by the workflow. This whole setup seems robust for the task at hand. The `typeVersion: 1` indicates a specific version of the UpLead node; newer versions might offer additional features or slightly different parameter names, but for this basic query, version 1 is perfectly adequate." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON featuring a manual trigger named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" connected to a 'set' node called \"Edit Fields\", which then connects to another 'set' node named \"Edit Fields1\".

The prompt clearly states \"a manual trigger named 'When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019'\". This is perfect. I'll start by adding a **Manual Trigger** node.\n\nI'll make sure it's of `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and it seems the current `typeVersion` used in the provided structure is `1`, so I'll stick with that. This node is exactly what I need because it allows me to manually run the workflow from the n8n interface, which aligns perfectly with \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\". I don't need any special configurations for this trigger; its parameters are simply empty, `{}`, as its function is just to initiate the workflow on demand. I'll place it strategically at the beginning of where the main flow will run.\n\nNext, the prompt says this manual trigger needs to be connected to a 'set' node called \"Edit Fields\". A **Set** node is a really common and useful node in n8n. Its primary purpose is to manipulate data items as they pass through the workflow \u2013 I can use it to add new fields, modify existing ones, or even remove them. Given the name \"Edit Fields\", it's clearly intended for some kind of data preparation or transformation.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Set** node. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is `3.2`. I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of my \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" trigger node to the `main` input of this new \"Edit Fields\" node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the execution flow and any initial data items (even if empty, which is often the case for a manual trigger) are passed directly into \"Edit Fields\" for processing. For its parameters, the JSON shows `{\"options\": {}}`, which means no specific fields are being added or changed at this exact moment, but the node is in place, ready to be configured for data manipulation whenever needed.\n\nFollowing that, the prompt specifies that \"Edit Fields\" then connects to *another* 'set' node named \"Edit Fields1\". This suggests a sequence of data manipulation steps. Perhaps the first \"Edit Fields\" prepares some data, and then \"Edit Fields1\" refines it further or adds more attributes.\n\nSo, I'll add another **Set** node. Again, it's of `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` and also `typeVersion: 3.2`, maintaining consistency with the previous `set` node. I'll connect the `main` output of the \"Edit Fields\" node to the `main` input of this \"Edit Fields1\" node. This creates a clear, sequential flow where data transformed by the first `set` node immediately becomes the input for the second `set` node. Similar to its predecessor, its `parameters` are `{\"options\": {}}`, indicating it's waiting for specific field adjustments to be defined.\n\nNow, the prompt also mentions two *unconnected* nodes. These are interesting because they're not part of the main flow. They might be placeholder nodes, or nodes that are intended for a different branch of the workflow that hasn't been built out yet, or perhaps they're just examples of nodes that exist outside the primary execution path.\n\nFirst, there's \"Unknown node 1\". This node is quite peculiar; its `type` is specified as `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is clearly a placeholder name and type for a node that doesn't actually exist within the standard n8n ecosystem, but I'm instructed to include it. Since the prompt says it's \"unconnected\", I'll place it on the canvas, ensuring no lines go to or from it. Its parameters are empty, `{}`. There's nothing to configure as it's a conceptual node.\n\nSimilarly, there's \"Unknown node 2\". This node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither`, also with `typeVersion: 1`. Just like the previous one, this is another hypothetical node type specified by the prompt. And again, it's explicitly stated to be \"unconnected\". So, I'll position it separately on the canvas, without any incoming or outgoing connections. Its parameters are also empty, `{}`. This effectively places both \"Unknown node 1\" and \"Unknown node 2\" as isolated components within the overall workflow definition." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that starts with a Webhook, waits for 2 seconds, and then continues to a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Webhook wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [940, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The request is pretty straightforward: a webhook to start, then a pause, and finally, a set node. This seems like a common pattern for workflows where an external event triggers a process, and you might need a brief delay before acting on the data, perhaps to ensure another system has updated or just for rate limiting.\n\nFirst things first, the workflow needs an entry point. The prompt explicitly says it \"starts with a Webhook.\" This tells me exactly what my initial node should be.\n\n**Node 1: Webhook**\nI'd go for the `Webhook` node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because its whole purpose is to listen for incoming HTTP requests, acting as the trigger for our workflow. It's how we'll get data from an external source to kick things off.\n\nLooking at the JSON, this webhook has a `path` configured. This `path` (a unique ID like `23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201`) is crucial because it's what defines the specific URL endpoint where external systems will send their data to trigger this particular workflow. The `options` are empty, meaning we're likely going with the default settings for how it handles requests, perhaps accepting any method or without specific authentication requirements, which is fine for a basic setup. If we had specific needs, like only accepting POST requests or needing a particular header, we'd configure those in the `options`. Its position at `[500, 580]` suggests it's the starting point on the canvas.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the prompt says \"waits for 2 seconds.\" This immediately points me to a specific utility node.\n\n**Connection 1: Webhook to Wait**\nNaturally, whatever comes into the Webhook needs to be passed directly to the next step, which is the waiting period. So, I'll draw a main connection from the Webhook node's output to the next node's input. The data received by the Webhook will flow through.\n\n**Node 2: Wait**\nFor pausing the workflow, the `Wait` node is the ideal choice. It's designed exactly for this purpose. The `n8n-nodes-base.wait` node, `typeVersion: 1`, is what's specified, and it perfectly fits the requirement.\n\nThe configuration here is simple and clear: `amount: 2` and `unit: \"seconds\"`. This directly translates to the \"wait for 2 seconds\" requirement. This is where the workflow will literally pause execution for that duration before proceeding. This is useful for various scenarios, like giving an external system time to process something before the workflow continues, or to pace outgoing requests. Its position at `[720, 580]` is logically placed after the Webhook.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"and then continues to a Set node.\" This is the logical next step after the waiting period.\n\n**Connection 2: Wait to Set**\nAfter the `Wait` node has completed its delay, it needs to pass the workflow execution (and any data it received from the Webhook) along to the next node. So, another main connection from the `Wait` node's output to the `Set` node's input is needed. The `Wait` node itself doesn't modify data, it just holds onto it for a bit, so the original data from the webhook will arrive at the Set node.\n\n**Node 3: Set**\nThe last node in this sequence is a `Set` node. The `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, `typeVersion: 1`, is a very flexible utility node. In this particular setup, the `parameters.options` object is empty. This means it's not currently configured to add, modify, or remove any fields from the data. It could simply be there as a placeholder for future development\u2014maybe new data fields will be added here, or perhaps it's just marking the end of this particular workflow segment. For instance, if we needed to add a \"status: processed\" field, this is where we'd configure it. Without specific instructions to manipulate data, it serves as a straightforward continuation point for the workflow. Its position at `[940, 580]` puts it at the end of the line, completing the specified flow." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow starting with a manual trigger connected to a Postgres node.

I'll walk through my thought process as I put these pieces together, referencing the provided JSON structure as my guide.\n\nFirst things first, the user prompt specifies that the workflow needs to \"start with a manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me what my initial node should be.\n\nI'd search for a trigger node, and specifically, the `manualTrigger` node is perfect for this. It's designed to kick off a workflow simply by clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n interface. It doesn't require any incoming data or external events; it just needs a manual push. So, I'll add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. Looking at the JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the standard, current version I'd typically use. Its `parameters` are empty, which is exactly what I'd expect for a basic manual trigger \u2013 it simply initiates the flow without needing any specific configuration itself. I'd give it a clear name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" as seen in the JSON, to make its purpose obvious to anyone looking at the workflow.\n\nNow that I have the starting point, the prompt says it should be \"connected to a Postgres node.\" This is the next logical step. Once the workflow is triggered, it needs to perform a database operation. So, I'll drag and drop a Postgres node onto the canvas. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.postgres`. The `typeVersion` specified in the JSON is `1`, which is what I'd choose, indicating I'm using the standard, stable version of the Postgres node. I'll name it \"Postgres\" for simplicity.\n\nNext, I need to figure out how to configure this Postgres node. The prompt is very specific: \"The Postgres node should execute the query `SELECT * from sometable;` and use the 'postgres-creds' credential.\"\n\nFor the query, the `parameters` of the Postgres node need to be set. I see `query: \"SELECT * from sometable;\"` in the JSON, which directly matches the requirement. This is where I input the exact SQL command. For the `operation` field, since I'm running a raw SQL query, the `executeQuery` option is the most suitable one. This allows me to input any valid SQL statement directly, rather than relying on predefined fields for `SELECT`, `INSERT`, etc., which might be more restrictive. So, `operation: \"executeQuery\"` makes perfect sense here.\n\nAnd then, crucially, the credentials. The prompt explicitly states \"use the 'postgres-creds' credential.\" In n8n, database connections are managed via credentials. So, under the `credentials` section of the Postgres node, I'd select the existing credential named \"postgres-creds\". This tells the node how to connect to the PostgreSQL database \u2013 it would contain the sensitive details like host, port, database name, username, and password, all securely stored and referenced by this name. I wouldn't be typing those values directly into the node; I'd just be pointing to the named credential.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The `manualTrigger` needs to pass control to the `Postgres` node. Looking at the `connections` part of the JSON, it shows a `main` connection from \"On clicking 'execute'\" to \"Postgres\". This is standard practice. The `manualTrigger` simply fires, and its main output port connects to the main input port of the `Postgres` node, signaling it to execute. There's no specific data being passed from the manual trigger beyond the execution signal itself, so a simple `main` connection is all that's required to establish the flow of execution from left to right. Once the manual trigger runs, the Postgres node will receive the signal and proceed to execute its configured query." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with three connected Bubble nodes: one to create a 'Doc' with the name 'Bubble', another to update the same 'Doc' to 'Bubble node', and a final node to retrieve the originally created 'Doc' by its ID.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"typeName\": \"Doc\", \"operation\": \"create\", \"properties\": {\"property\": [{\"key\": \"Name\", \"value\": \"Bubble\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Bubble\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.bubble\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 280]}, {\"parameters\": {\"objectId\": \"={{$json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\", \"typeName\": \"={{$node[\\\"Bubble\\\"].parameter[\\\"typeName\\\"]}}\", \"operation\": \"update\", \"properties\": {\"property\": [{\"key\": \"Name\", \"value\": \"Bubble node\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Bubble1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.bubble\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 280]}, {\"parameters\": {\"objectId\": \"={{$node[\\\"Bubble\\\"].json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\", \"typeName\": \"={{$node[\\\"Bubble\\\"].parameter[\\\"typeName\\\"]}}\"}, \"name\": \"Bubble2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.bubble\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [850, 280]}], \"connections\": {\"Bubble\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Bubble1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Bubble1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Bubble2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's break down how I'd put this workflow together, thinking through each step and decision.\n\nThe core goal here is to interact with Bubble data in a sequence: first, create a record, then update that very same record, and finally, retrieve it to confirm everything. So, right away, I know I'm going to need at least three Bubble nodes, and they'll need to be chained together.\n\nStarting with the first step, we need to create a new \"Doc\". For this, a Bubble node is the obvious choice.\n\nI'd add a **Bubble** node, specifically of type `n8n-nodes-base.bubble` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfectly suited for interacting with Bubble's API, allowing us to perform operations like creating, updating, or deleting data.\n\nOnce I've placed it, I'd configure its parameters. The prompt says \"create a 'Doc'\", so I'd set its `typeName` to 'Doc'. For the `operation`, it clearly needs to be 'create'. Then, to set the initial data, it asks for the name 'Bubble'. So, within the `properties`, I'd add a new property, setting its `key` to 'Name' and its `value` to 'Bubble'. This creates the document with the initial name. Of course, this node would also require Bubble API credentials to connect to the correct Bubble application; those would be configured separately, typically in the n8n credentials manager.\n\nNow, after creating the 'Doc', the next step is to update that *exact same* 'Doc'. This means the second node needs to know the unique identifier (the ID) of the document that was just created. This is a crucial piece of data that the first node will output.\n\nSo, I'd drag out another **Bubble** node, again `n8n-nodes-base.bubble` and `typeVersion: 1`, and connect it directly from the first 'Bubble' node. This connection ensures that the data from the first node (including the ID of the newly created 'Doc') is passed along to this second node.\n\nFor its configuration, the `operation` here will clearly be 'update'. Now, the clever part: how do we tell it *which* 'Doc' to update? The first node would have outputted the ID of the created item. So, for the `objectId` parameter, I'd use an expression to reference that ID. Specifically, something like `={{$json[\"id\"]}}` would work, pulling the 'id' field from the previous node's output data. To keep things consistent and ensure we're targeting the right data type, it's good practice to also reference the `typeName` from the previous node, so I'd set `typeName` to `={{$node[\"Bubble\"].parameter[\"typeName\"]}}`. This just makes the workflow more robust if, for example, the type name ever needed to change. Finally, the prompt specifies updating the name to 'Bubble node'. So, similar to the create step, in the `properties`, I'd set the `key` to 'Name' and the `value` to 'Bubble node'. And naturally, it would also use the same Bubble API credentials.\n\nFinally, the prompt states we need to retrieve the *originally created* 'Doc' by its ID. This is a verification step. So, I'd add a third **Bubble** node, again `n8n-nodes-base.bubble` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'd connect this node from the second 'Bubble1' node. Even though 'Bubble1' performed an update, the key is to retrieve the *original* 'Doc' by its ID, which was first generated by the initial 'Bubble' node.\n\nFor its configuration, since we're just retrieving a single item by its ID, we don't explicitly set an `operation` like 'create' or 'update'; the presence of `objectId` with no other operation implies a retrieve operation for a single item. For the `objectId`, it's important to go back to the *first* 'Bubble' node to get the ID, not necessarily the output of the update node, because that's the source of truth for the *original* item. So, I'd use an expression like `={{$node[\"Bubble\"].json[\"id\"]}}`. This explicitly pulls the 'id' from the output of the first node named \"Bubble\". And again, for `typeName`, I'd reference `={{$node[\"Bubble\"].parameter[\"typeName\"]}}` from the original node for consistency. This ensures we're looking for the 'Doc' type that was initially created. This node, too, would require the Bubble API credentials.\n\nThis sequence ensures that the unique identifier of the created document is carried through the workflow, allowing subsequent nodes to operate on that specific record, fulfilling all the requirements of creating, updating, and then retrieving the exact same 'Doc'." } { "prompt": "Generate an active n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFileWorkflowagents' that triggers via a webhook.

The prompt is pretty clear: we need to generate an active n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFileWorkflowagents' that triggers via a webhook, fetches content from a specific Google Doc, and then responds to the initial webhook with that content.\n\nThe first thing that comes to mind is the trigger. Since it needs to \"trigger via a webhook,\" a Webhook node is the obvious starting point. I'll place that as my first node. Looking at the JSON, it confirms this: the first node is indeed a `Webhook` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the typeVersion is 2. This node is perfect for receiving incoming HTTP requests, which is exactly what a webhook trigger does. For its configuration, I see it has a `path` property, which essentially defines the unique endpoint URL where the webhook will listen for requests. It also specifies `responseMode: \"responseNode\"`. This is important because it means the Webhook node itself won't send an immediate response; instead, it will wait for a later \"Respond to Webhook\" node in the workflow to send the actual response. This is crucial for our goal, as we need to fetch data *before* responding.\n\nNow that we have the trigger set up, the next logical step is to get the content from the Google Doc. The prompt explicitly mentions \"fetch content from the Google Doc at `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1oxSUjNR_Si5UaX7AfWy0r5tGt2IfbP8GKK7DjBo92Mw\/view` using Google Docs OAuth2.\" This immediately points me to the Google Docs node. I'd connect this directly from the Webhook node, as it's the immediate action after receiving the trigger. Looking at the provided JSON, yep, the second node is a `Google Docs` node, connected from the Webhook. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and typeVersion is 2. This node is designed specifically for interacting with Google Docs. Within its parameters, the `operation` is set to \"get\", which is exactly what we need to retrieve content from a document. There's also a `documentURL` property where the specific Google Doc URL would be configured. Crucially, it mentions `credentials: {\"googleDocsOAuth2Api\": ...}`. This tells me that this node will use an OAuth2 authentication method, which is Google's recommended way for secure access to user data like documents, ensuring the workflow has the necessary permissions to read the document. This is definitely the right choice for accessing a Google Doc.\n\nFinally, once we've fetched the content from the Google Doc, the prompt states we need to \"respond to the initial webhook with the `content` property from the Google Docs output.\" This means we need a node that can send a response back to the original webhook caller. Since our initial Webhook node was configured with `responseMode: \"responseNode\"`, the `Respond to Webhook` node is the perfect fit. I would connect the Google Docs node's output to this Respond to Webhook node. Checking the JSON, indeed, the third and final node is `Respond to Webhook`, connected from the Google Docs node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and typeVersion is 1.1. For its configuration, the `respondWith` parameter is set to \"text\", indicating we'll be sending back plain text. The most critical part here is the `responseBody` which uses an expression: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression dynamically takes the `content` property from the output of the previous node (the Google Docs node, which would have put the document's text into a property named `content`) and uses it as the response body. This precisely fulfills the requirement of sending the fetched content back to the initial webhook caller. The flow is complete and directly addresses all parts of the user prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow that uses a POST webhook to receive a URL.

The core requirement here is to receive a URL via a POST webhook and then use that URL as the title for a new page in a specific Notion database.\n\nFirst things first, we need a way to receive that URL. The prompt explicitly mentions a \"POST webhook,\" so that's going to be our entry point.\n\nI'll start by adding a **Webhook node**. This is the standard way to trigger an n8n workflow from an external system. For its type, it will be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and I see it's configured with `typeVersion: 1`. This node will effectively be our listener.\n\nGiven the prompt specifies a \"POST webhook,\" the `httpMethod` parameter for this node absolutely needs to be set to `POST`. That's crucial because we're expecting data to be *sent* to us, not just requested. The `path` parameter would define the specific endpoint URL that external systems would send their data to. It acts as a unique identifier for this particular webhook.\n\nOnce the Webhook node receives data, we need to do something with that data \u2013 specifically, create a Notion page. So, the next logical step, connected directly from our Webhook, will be a **Notion node**. This node is designed specifically for interacting with Notion's API, allowing us to create, update, or retrieve Notion pages and databases.\n\nLooking at the provided JSON, the Notion node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.notion`, and it's using `typeVersion: 2.1`. This version handles Notion's API interactions effectively.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Notion node? The user prompt states the URL received by the webhook should be used as the *title* for the new page.\n\nSo, within the Notion node's parameters, I'd set the `resource` to `databasePage`, because we're creating a new page entry within a database. Then, the most important part is mapping the incoming URL to the page title. The webhook is expected to receive a JSON body, and based on the way the Notion node is configured, it's anticipating a property named `url` within that JSON body.\n\nTherefore, for the `title` parameter of the Notion node, I would use an expression like `={{ $json.body.url }}`. This tells n8n to take the data from the body of the incoming webhook request (`$json.body`) and specifically use the value associated with the `url` key as the new Notion page's title. This is a very common and powerful way to dynamically pass data between nodes.\n\nWe also need to specify *which* Notion database to create the page in. The Notion node has a `databaseId` parameter. This would be configured to point to the specific Notion database where these new bookmark entries should reside. It's usually a unique identifier for that database. The connection indicates it's linked to a list mode and has a cached result name of \"Bookmarks,\" suggesting it's correctly pointing to the intended database.\n\nFinally, looking at the extra nodes, there are a couple of **Sticky Note nodes**. These don't affect the workflow's execution logic or data flow at all. They're purely for documentation and adding helpful notes directly within the workflow canvas. One sticky note seems to be explaining the webhook trigger settings, reminding that it's a POST request. The other sticky note is providing guidance on setting up the Notion database and testing the workflow, which is good practice for anyone else looking at or using this workflow.\n\nThe connection between the Webhook and the Notion node is straightforward: the \"main\" output of the `POST` webhook node feeds directly into the \"main\" input of the `Notion` node. This means that once the webhook successfully receives a request, the data it receives is passed along to the Notion node for processing. The flow is very linear and direct, which is ideal for this simple requirement." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Webhook wait set\" that starts with a Webhook node.

This is followed by a Wait node configured for 2 seconds, which then connects to a Set node.\" I've got the JSON structure to guide me, which is great.\n\nFirst things first, I'll start by defining the overall workflow. The prompt says to name it \"Webhook wait set,\" so I'll set that as the workflow's `name` property. Looking at the provided JSON, it already has `name: \"Webhook wait set\"`, so that's a perfect match. Other top-level properties like `active`, `settings`, `versionId`, `id`, `meta`, and `tags` are standard workflow metadata; I'll let the system handle those defaults for now.\n\nNow, onto the actual nodes. The prompt specifies a starting node: a Webhook. That's a classic choice for a workflow that needs to be triggered by an external event, like an incoming HTTP request.\n\nSo, I'll add the first node. It will be of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\"` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is absolutely essential because it acts as the entry point for the workflow. When an external system sends a request to the configured webhook URL, this workflow instance will activate. The JSON shows a `name: \"Webhook\"`, which is a perfectly descriptive default. For its parameters, the `path` is crucial; it's a unique identifier that forms part of the URL where the webhook listens for requests. The JSON provides a specific ID for this path, and while I wouldn't ever use specific IDs in a general explanation, it's where the actual endpoint is defined. The `options` are empty, meaning no special configurations like response mode are set, which is fine for a basic trigger. The `webhookId` property is also there, just reinforcing its unique identifier.\n\nNext, the prompt says the Webhook node is \"followed by a Wait node configured for 2 seconds.\" This immediately tells me my next node should be a Wait node, and it needs to be connected directly to the Webhook.\n\nSo, I'll add the Wait node. It's of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. The Wait node is incredibly useful when you need to introduce a pause in your workflow execution. Maybe you're waiting for an external system to process something, or you just want to pace your operations. For this particular workflow, the prompt explicitly states \"configured for 2 seconds.\" This translates directly to its parameters: `amount: 2` and `unit: \"seconds\"`. This is the core configuration for this node\u2014it will literally just pause the execution of any incoming items for two seconds before passing them along. The `name: \"Wait\"` is clear and concise. Interestingly, the JSON shows a `webhookId` for this node as well, which is typically associated with the Webhook trigger itself; it's not a parameter that would typically affect the Wait node's function, so I'd focus on the `amount` and `unit` for its behavior.\n\nNow, how do these two connect? The prompt states the Webhook \"is followed by\" the Wait. This implies a simple direct connection from the Webhook's output to the Wait node's input. Looking at the `connections` object in the JSON, I see `Webhook: {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]]}`. This confirms that the primary output of the Webhook node connects to the primary input of the Wait node. Data, if any, received by the Webhook would flow directly into the Wait node.\n\nFinally, the prompt says the Wait node \"then connects to a Set node.\" Okay, so after the two-second delay, the data needs to go somewhere, and a Set node is specified.\n\nSo, I'll add the Set node. This one is `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. The Set node is extremely versatile. It allows you to add new data fields to the incoming items, modify existing ones, or even remove fields. In this case, the `parameters` section in the JSON shows `options: {}`, which means no specific fields are being set or modified yet. It's an empty Set node, but it fulfills the requirement of being present. Perhaps it's a placeholder for future data manipulation, or just an endpoint for this simple example. The `name: \"Set\"` is a good default.\n\nAnd for the connection, it's again a direct flow from the Wait node to the Set node. The JSON's `connections` object confirms this with `Wait: {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]]}`. This means that once the 2-second wait period is over for any given item, that item will be passed directly to the Set node for further processing.\n\nSo, the flow is straightforward: an external event hits the Webhook, the workflow triggers, pauses for 2 seconds, and then the data arrives at the Set node, ready for whatever the next logical step might be, even if it's currently configured to do nothing specific." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Manual wait set' that starts with a 'Manual' manual trigger node, connects to a 'Wait' node configured to pause for 2 seconds, and then flows into a 'Set' node.

The request is to build a workflow called \"Manual wait set.\" The first thing that comes to mind is the overall structure: it needs to start, do a wait, and then do a set operation.\n\nGiven the name \"Manual wait set,\" the initial trigger point is pretty clear. I'm going to need a node that allows for a manual start, which immediately points me to the **Manual Trigger node**. This seems like the most straightforward choice for initiating a workflow on demand, as specified in the prompt. Looking at the JSON, it confirms this with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. It's a simple node; it doesn't really need any specific parameters configured, as its job is just to kick off the execution when someone clicks \"Execute Workflow.\" So, I'd place that down as the very first node, knowing it will be the starting point of our workflow execution flow.\n\nNext, the prompt states that it needs to \"pause for 2 seconds.\" This is a clear indicator that we'll need a \"wait\" type of node. n8n has a dedicated **Wait node** for precisely this purpose. I'd connect this `Wait` node directly from the output of our `Manual` trigger node. This ensures that as soon as the manual trigger fires, the workflow hits this wait period. Checking the JSON confirms my choice: `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\"` with `typeVersion: 1`. Now, for the crucial part of the wait node \u2013 its configuration. The prompt specifically says \"2 seconds.\" So, I'd open up the parameters for this `Wait` node and set `amount` to `2` and `unit` to `seconds`. This perfectly matches the `parameters: {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}` found in the JSON. This configuration tells the workflow to simply pause its execution at this point for the specified duration before moving on. It\u2019s exactly what's needed to implement the delay.\n\nFinally, after the pause, the workflow needs to \"flow into a 'Set' node.\" This suggests the next logical step is to manipulate or add some data to the workflow's items. The **Set node** is ideal for this. It allows us to add new fields or modify existing ones on the items flowing through the workflow. I'd connect the `Wait` node's output to the input of this `Set` node. The JSON again aligns with this: `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. Looking at the parameters for this specific Set node in the JSON, it shows `parameters: {\"options\": {}}`. This means it's configured as a basic Set node without adding any specific fields or values. Perhaps in a more complex scenario, we'd be adding a timestamp or a status flag here, but for this workflow, it's simply acting as the final step in the sequence, signifying that the \"wait\" period has concluded and the workflow has proceeded. It basically just passes the input data through, potentially ready for further processing, but not actually modifying it in this specific configuration.\n\nSo, to recap the flow, a manual trigger starts it, then there's a two-second pause, and finally, the data passes through a Set node. The connections are straightforward: `Manual` to `Wait`, and `Wait` to `Set`, all on their `main` outputs and inputs.\n\nOne last important detail from the prompt is that the workflow should be \"initially inactive.\" When I'm saving or activating the workflow, I'd make sure that the `active` flag is set to `false`, as seen in the JSON. This means the workflow won't run automatically or be active until someone manually enables it. Other settings like `saveExecutionProgress` and `saveManualExecutions` are usually default good practices for debugging and monitoring, so I'd keep those enabled as well, as the JSON shows." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named \"Pushover:Message:push\" that starts and sends a Pushover notification.

The goal is to create an inactive workflow that sends a Pushover notification with dynamic content, and it needs a specific name.\n\nFirst off, every workflow needs a starting point, right? Even if it's just meant to be triggered manually or called by another workflow. Looking at the provided structure, the very first node is a \"Start\" node. This makes perfect sense. It's the most basic way to initiate a workflow's execution flow. So, I'd drop in a **Start** node, which is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.start` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node doesn't really have any specific parameters to configure for this particular use case, it just acts as the trigger. Its primary role is to kick things off. I wouldn't expect a different `typeVersion` to significantly alter its behavior as a simple trigger in this context.\n\nOnce the workflow starts, the core action we need to perform is sending a Pushover notification. So, naturally, the next step would be to add a node that can interact with the Pushover API. Thinking about the available nodes, an **Pushover** node is exactly what we need. This node is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.pushover` and `typeVersion: 1`. This specific node type is designed precisely for sending notifications via the Pushover service, which aligns perfectly with the requirement.\n\nNow, how do we connect these two? The \"Start\" node needs to pass control to the \"Pushover\" node. So, I'd draw a connection from the \"Start\" node's main output to the \"Pushover\" node's main input. This ensures that once the workflow begins, the Pushover notification sending action is immediately initiated. The \"Start\" node doesn't pass any data per se in this setup, it just signals the \"Pushover\" node to execute.\n\nNext, we need to configure this \"Pushover\" node. The user prompt specifies several things.\nFirst, a user key. So, within the parameters of the \"Pushover\" node, I'd look for the `userKey` field. Here, a specific user key would be entered to identify the recipient of the notification.\n\nThen, there's the message and title. The prompt asks for a dynamic message and title that includes the current ISO date. For the message, I'd go to the `message` parameter. Instead of a static string, I'd use an expression. The JSON shows `\"=Message_{{(new Date).toISOString()}}\"`. This is a great way to achieve dynamism. The `new Date()` part creates a new date object, and `.toISOString()` formats it into the standard ISO string, like \"2023-10-27T10:30:00.000Z\". The double curly braces `{{...}}` indicate that it's a JavaScript expression to be evaluated. This means every time the workflow runs, the message will include the exact time it was sent.\n\nSimilarly, for the title, it's mentioned to be dynamic. This would typically be under an `additionalFields` section, specifically a `title` sub-field. The JSON shows `additionalFields\": {\"title\": \"=NodeQa Test_{{(new Date).toISOString()}}\"}`. This is the same dynamic pattern as the message, ensuring the title also reflects the current ISO date. It's good practice to make both dynamic as requested, providing clear context of when the notification was sent.\n\nFinally, the Pushover node needs credentials to authenticate with the Pushover API. The prompt states \"connected via \"Pushover API creds\"\". So, in the \"Pushover\" node's `credentials` section, I would select an existing credential named \"Pushover API creds\". This credential would contain the necessary API token or application token required by Pushover. This is crucial for the node to successfully communicate with the Pushover service.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it for the nodes and their configurations. The overall workflow itself is named \"Pushover:Message:push\" and is set to `active: false`, as per the initial request. This means it wouldn't automatically run; it would need to be manually triggered or activated first." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers when a new file is uploaded to a specific Google Drive folder.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to watch a Google Drive folder for new files, and when one pops up, we want to create a new page in Notion, using the file's name as the title, and importantly, attaching a link to that file in Notion.\n\nSo, the very first thing we need is a way to detect that new file in Google Drive. This immediately tells me we'll need a trigger node. Looking through the available options, a Google Drive node seems like the perfect fit for this.\n\nLet's start by adding the `n8n-nodes-base.googleDriveTrigger` node. This will be our \"On file upload\" node. I'll configure it as our starting point. Its `typeVersion` is 1.\n\nNow, why this specific node? Because it's designed to listen for events directly within Google Drive, which is exactly what we need for our trigger condition. We want to know *when a new file is uploaded*. So, for the 'event' parameter, I'll set it to `fileCreated`. This ensures it only fires when a brand new file appears, not just when one is modified or deleted.\n\nThe prompt specifically mentions a \"specific Google Drive folder.\" So, I'll set the 'triggerOn' parameter to `specificFolder`. This will then expose a field where we can specify the exact folder ID we want to monitor. Of course, we'll need to provide an appropriate Google Drive credential to allow n8n to access that folder. As for how often it checks, the `pollTimes` parameter seems to be set to `everyMinute`, which is a good default for real-time-ish triggers; it means n8n will check Google Drive once every minute for new files in that specified folder.\n\nOkay, so we have our trigger. The next step is what happens *after* a file is uploaded. The prompt states we need to create a page in a Notion database. This means our next node will definitely be a Notion node.\n\nI'll connect the output of our \"On file upload\" Google Drive trigger node to a new Notion node. This connection will pass all the details about the newly uploaded file to the Notion node, which is crucial because we need that information to create the page.\n\nLet's add the `n8n-nodes-base.notion` node. We'll call this one \"Create database page\". Its `typeVersion` is 2.\n\nWhen configuring this Notion node, the primary action here is to create a page, and specifically, a page *within a database*. So, the 'resource' parameter should be set to `databasePage`. This will then require us to specify which Notion database we're targeting. There will be a `databaseId` field where we'll input the unique identifier for the Notion database where these pages should be created. Like with Google Drive, this node will also require a Notion API credential to authenticate with Notion.\n\nNow, for the specific requirements for the Notion page:\n1. **Page Title**: The user prompt asks for the uploaded file's name to be the page title. The Google Drive trigger node, when it fires, provides a lot of information about the uploaded file, including its name. So, for the 'title' parameter in the Notion node, I can use an expression to pull this data directly from the previous node. I'll set it to `={{$node[\"On file upload\"].json[\"name\"]}}`. This expression tells Notion to look at the data output from the \"On file upload\" node, specifically the 'name' field from its JSON output, and use that as the page title.\n\n2. **File Attachment**: This is a bit more specific. We need to attach the file's *web view link* to a *file property* in Notion. This means we need to ensure our Notion database has a property of the 'Files & media' type. In the Notion node's 'propertiesUi' section, under `propertyValues`, I'll look for a way to add a file property. The JSON shows a `key` of \"File|files\", which implies there's a property named \"File\" (or similar) of type \"files\".\n Within this file property, we need to provide the URL. The Google Drive trigger node also provides the `webViewLink` for the uploaded file, which is exactly what we need for direct access. So, for the `fileUrl` under this property, I'll set the 'url' to `={{ $json[\"webViewLink\"] }}`. This pulls the web view link from the current item's data, which was passed from the Google Drive node. And, to make it clear what file is attached, the 'name' for the attached link will also be the file's name, retrieved again with `={{ $node[\"On file upload\"].json[\"name\"] }}`.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The flow is logical: trigger on file upload, then use the details of that file to create and populate a Notion database page. The connection passes the relevant data downstream automatically." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

For this, the most straightforward node in n8n is the **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and in this case, we're using `typeVersion: 1`. This node is ideal because its sole purpose is to start a workflow execution when someone clicks \"Test workflow\" or manually triggers it from the editor. It doesn't require any specific configuration; it just sits there, waiting for the signal to start processing. So, I'll place that down first. It's usually named something like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" by default, which is perfectly descriptive for its function.\n\nNow that we have our starting point, the next step, according to the prompt, is to connect this trigger to a \"Set\" node. The purpose of this \"Set\" node is quite specific: it needs to populate a \"body\" field with an XML string.\n\nFor adding or modifying data fields within an item, the **Set** node is the go-to choice. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and we'll use `typeVersion: 3.2` as specified in the blueprint. This node is incredibly versatile for creating new data, overwriting existing data, or appending to arrays within an item. In our scenario, we need to *create* a new field called `body` and assign a specific XML string to it.\n\nSo, I'll drag out a Set node and name it \"Edit Fields\" as requested. Now, how do we connect these two? The Manual Trigger node, once activated, simply outputs an empty item (or a single item with basic execution data) which then needs to be passed along. A simple `main` connection from the trigger's output to the Set node's input is all that's required. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, its output item (or items) are fed directly into the Set node for processing.\n\nNext, we need to configure this \"Edit Fields\" Set node. The core requirement is to populate a \"body\" field with an XML string. Inside the Set node's parameters, there's a section specifically for defining \"Fields.\" I'll add a new field. For its name, I'll explicitly type \"body\". Then, for its value, I'll choose the \"String\" option, as the data we're putting in is a plain text string, albeit one formatted as XML.\n\nNow comes the XML content itself. I'll carefully paste the entire XML string into the `stringValue` parameter for the `body` field. This XML represents a library containing multiple books, each with a title, author, publication year, and ISBN. It's crucial that this string is valid XML for downstream nodes that might parse it.\n\n```xml\n<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>\n<library>\n <book>\n <title>Introduction to XML<\/title>\n <author>John Doe<\/author>\n <publication_year>2020<\/publication_year>\n <isbn>1234567890<\/isbn>\n <\/book>\n <book>\n <title>Data Science Basics<\/title>\n <author>Jane Smith<\/author>\n <publication_year>2019<\/publication_year>\n <isbn>0987654321<\/isbn>\n <\/book>\n <book>\n <title>Programming in Python<\/title>\n <author>Bob Johnson<\/author>\n <publication_year>2021<\/publication_year>\n <isbn>5432109876<\/isbn>\n <\/book>\n<\/library>\n```\n\nThat's essentially the whole setup. The manual trigger starts, passes an empty item to the Set node, and the Set node then takes that item, adds a `body` field to it containing the specified XML string, and outputs this new item. This fulfills all the requirements: a manual trigger, connected to a Set node named \"Edit Fields,\" which populates a \"body\" field with the XML string for a library." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a POST webhook, connecting it to a basic Set node.

It's perfect because it listens for incoming web requests and then triggers the workflow.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Webhook node?\n\nLooking at the provided JSON, I see a `parameters` object for the Webhook node.\n* The `httpMethod` is set to `\"POST\"`. This is crucial. It means this webhook will *only* respond to incoming POST requests, aligning perfectly with the requirement. If a GET request came in, it simply wouldn't trigger the workflow.\n* There's a `path` parameter, which is a unique string (like an ID). This path is what will form the last segment of the webhook URL, making it unique and addressable. It's like the specific door that this workflow is listening at.\n* The `options` object is empty, indicating that I'm keeping all the default settings for this webhook, which is fine for a basic setup.\n\nNow, considering the example input for the webhook, the `pinData` section for this Webhook node shows what it would receive. It clearly indicates a `body` with `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`. This tells me that when this webhook is called, it's expecting a JSON payload in its request body. The `content-type` header also confirms `application\/json`, reinforcing this expectation. This Webhook node is designed to capture that exact kind of incoming data.\n\nOnce this Webhook node receives a POST request, it will process the request and pass the entire incoming data (headers, query parameters, and especially the request body) as an item to the next node in the workflow.\n\nNext, the prompt asks for this webhook to connect to a \"basic Set node.\" This is a straightforward next step.\n\n**Node 2: Set**\n\n* **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version**: `1`\n\nThe Set node is incredibly versatile for manipulating data within a workflow. In this specific scenario, given the prompt's request for a \"basic Set node\" and looking at its configuration in the JSON, its `parameters` object has an empty `options` field. This means it's not being configured to add new fields, remove existing ones, or change any values.\n\nSo, why use it here?\nPrimarily, a basic Set node acts as a pass-through or a placeholder. After the Webhook receives data, passing it to a Set node allows me to easily inspect what the Webhook received during testing. It confirms that the data flow is working correctly from the trigger. It just takes the item(s) from the previous node and outputs them, making them visible for debugging or as a starting point for further data manipulation. It's essentially receiving the raw input from the webhook.\n\n**Connections:**\n\nNow, I need to connect these two nodes. The `connections` object in the JSON shows `Webhook` connects to `Set` via the `main` output of the Webhook node. This is the default and most common way to connect nodes, meaning that the primary data output from the Webhook (which includes the entire parsed webhook request) will be fed directly as input into the Set node. The Set node will then receive that item and hold it, making it ready for inspection or for further processing by subsequent nodes, if I were to add any later.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow starts with the Webhook listening for a POST request, captures the specified JSON body, and then passes that entire data payload to the Set node, which simply receives and holds it.

The request states \"generating a message with yesterday's date.\" This isn't a standard pre-built operation that a simple text field can handle directly. We need some custom logic. For custom JavaScript logic, a **Function Item** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.functionItem`, typeVersion: 1) is an excellent choice. It allows us to write JavaScript to process data or, in this case, create new data based on the current time.\n\nSo, I'll connect the `Morning reminder` node's main output to the input of this `format reminder` node. Data will flow from the trigger to the function.\n\nInside the `format reminder` node, the `functionCode` parameter is where the magic happens. Let's look at that code:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Creates message with todays date\nconst today = new Date()\nconst yesterday = new Date(today)\n\nyesterday.setDate(yesterday.getDate() - 1)\nconst message = `What did you do: ${yesterday.toISOString().split('T')[0]}`\n\nreturn {message};\n```\nThis looks exactly right. It first gets \"today's\" date (which will be the date the workflow runs, 6 AM). Then it cleverly creates a new `Date` object based on `today` and subtracts one day using `setDate(yesterday.getDate() - 1)`. This reliably calculates yesterday's date. The `toISOString().split('T')[0]` part is a common way to get just the date part (YYYY-MM-DD) from a Date object, stripping off the time and timezone info. Finally, it constructs the message string \"What did you do: YYYY-MM-DD\" and `return {message};` ensures that this `message` variable becomes an output property of the item, which subsequent nodes can easily access. This is a robust way to generate the dynamic message needed.\n\nFinally, we need to send this message via Telegram. Naturally, a **Telegram** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.telegram`, typeVersion: 1) is the specific node for this purpose. I'll connect the output of our `format reminder` node to the input of this `Send journal reminder` node. The data flow here is crucial: the message we just created in the function node needs to be passed to the Telegram node's text field.\n\nLooking at the Telegram node's `parameters`, the `text` field is set to `={{$node[\"format reminder\"].json[\"message\"]}}`. This is exactly how n8n's expressions work to pull data from a previous node. It's accessing the `message` property from the JSON output of the \"format reminder\" node. This ensures the dynamically generated message with yesterday's date is sent.\n\nThe `chatId` parameter is set to `\"666884239\"`. This is the specific recipient ID provided in the prompt, so that's correctly configured.\nAnd then there's `credentials: {}`. This field would typically hold a reference to the Telegram API token or similar authentication details required to connect to the Telegram service. Since it's an empty object here, it implies that the actual credential value is stored separately in n8n's credential store, and this workflow just points to it. This is good practice for security, keeping sensitive API keys out of the workflow JSON directly. The `additionalFields` is empty, meaning no extra Telegram-specific options like parsing mode or disable notifications are set, which is fine for a simple reminder.\n\nSo, the workflow is: Cron node triggers at 6 AM -> Function Item node calculates yesterday's date and formats the message -> Telegram node sends that message to the specified chat ID. The flow of data is straightforward, each node passes its output as input to the next, fulfilling all the requirements. The `active: true` in the overall workflow JSON indicates that this workflow is enabled and ready to run." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFileDataanalysis' that uses a Webhook to trigger fetching content from the Google Docs URL 'https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1y54ri9I_YXxTFcy9AS3u7Dh0YnIxq_7tedH7v-SuAL4\/view' and then responds to the initial webhook with that document's text content.

The prompt is pretty clear: we need to kick things off with a webhook, pull text from a Google Doc, and then send that text right back as the webhook's response. Plus, some tags for organization.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a trigger. Since the requirement is to use a \"Webhook to trigger,\" that's our starting point. I'll add a **Webhook** node.\n* The node type will be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and I'll use `typeVersion: 2`. This is the standard trigger for external HTTP requests, perfect for what we need here.\n* For its parameters, it'll need a `path`. This path acts as the unique identifier in the webhook URL, allowing us to hit this specific workflow endpoint. The exact value isn't something I'd set manually here, it's typically auto-generated or chosen to be unique.\n* Crucially, the prompt states we need to respond *with the document's text content* after fetching it. This means the webhook shouldn't respond immediately. So, I'll set its `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node, \"Don't send a response yourself; wait for a specific 'Respond to Webhook' node later in the workflow to handle it.\" This is a key decision to enable the desired flow. The `options` parameter can remain empty for this simple setup.\n\nNext, once the webhook triggers, what's the very next action? The prompt says \"fetching content from the Google Docs URL.\" This immediately tells me we need a node that can interact with Google Docs. The **Google Docs** node is the obvious choice.\n* I'll connect this `Google Docs` node directly from the output of our `Webhook` node. The webhook kicks it off, and then we go fetch the document.\n* The node type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and I'll use `typeVersion: 2`.\n* Inside this node, we need to specify what operation we're performing. We want to \"fetch content,\" so the `operation` parameter should be set to `get`. This will retrieve the content of a specified document.\n* For the `documentURL` parameter, this is where the specific Google Docs link provided in the prompt would be configured. It would be the URL of the document we want to retrieve. I wouldn't put an actual URL here, but simply state that a document URL would be configured in this field.\n* Naturally, to access a Google Doc, we'll need proper authentication. So, credentials, specifically `googleDocsOAuth2Api` credentials, would be provided. This allows n8n to connect securely to Google Docs on behalf of a user or service account.\n\nFinally, we have the document content. The prompt's last instruction is \"responds to the initial webhook with that document's text content.\" This is where the `Respond to Webhook` node comes in.\n* This node will connect from the output of the `Google Docs` node. Once the Google Docs node successfully fetches the content, it passes that data along to the next step, which is sending the response.\n* The node type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, and `typeVersion: 1.1` looks fine for this functionality.\n* For its configuration, we need to specify how to respond and with what. The prompt wants the \"document's text content,\" so I'll set `respondWith` to `text`. This ensures the response is plain text, not JSON or something else.\n* Then, for the actual `responseBody`, this is where we'll use an expression. The `Google Docs` node, when it performs a `get` operation, typically outputs the document's content in a field like `content`. So, I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}`. This tells the node, \"Take the `content` property from the JSON output of the previous node (the Google Docs node) and use it as the body of our text response.\" This dynamically inserts the fetched document text. The `options` parameter can be left empty as no other specific response options are needed.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the core logic of the workflow. The connections ensure a linear flow: trigger, fetch, respond. Lastly, to meet the prompt's organizational requirements, the workflow would also have `tags` applied, specifically 'Onboarding' and 'Files', making it easy to categorize and find within the n8n interface. These are just metadata for the workflow itself, not nodes in the flow." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that starts with a 'When chat message received' trigger, connected to an 'AI Agent'. The 'AI Agent' should use an 'E2E Chat Model' that is configured to always respond with 'Hello from **e2e** model!!!'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"When chat message received\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"AI Agent\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.agent\", \"typeVersion\": 1.9, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"response\": \"Hello from **e2e** model!!!\"}, \"name\": \"E2E Chat Model\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatE2eTest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [308, 220]}], \"connections\": {\"When chat message received\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AI Agent\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"AI Agent\": {\"main\": [[]]}, \"E2E Chat Model\": {\"ai_languageModel\": [[{\"node\": \"AI Agent\", \"type\": \"ai_languageModel\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's lay out the thought process for building this workflow.\n\nFirst things first, I need to start with how the workflow is triggered. The prompt clearly states \"starts with a 'When chat message received' trigger.\" So, that's my very first node. I'd drag in a `chatTrigger` node. Looking at the JSON, this corresponds to the node named \"When chat message received\", which has a `type` of `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` and `typeVersion` of `1.1`. This node is designed specifically to listen for incoming chat messages and kick off the workflow, which is exactly what we need. For its configuration, it seems to be using default options, as indicated by `{\"options\": {}}`. That's fine; it just means it will listen for messages as per its default behavior.\n\nNext, the prompt says this trigger should be \"connected to an 'AI Agent'\". This is the core intelligence part of the workflow. So, I'll add an `agent` node right after the `chatTrigger`. I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"When chat message received\" node to the `main` input of this new \"AI Agent\" node. This ensures that any chat messages received by the trigger are passed directly to the AI Agent for processing. The JSON shows this `AI Agent` node has a `type` of `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.agent` and `typeVersion` of `1.9`. Like the trigger, it also has an empty `options` parameter, meaning its initial setup is pretty standard, waiting for a language model to be attached.\n\nNow, for the critical part of the prompt: \"The 'AI Agent' should use an 'E2E Chat Model' that is configured to always respond with 'Hello from **e2e** model!!!'.\" This tells me two things: I need a specific type of language model, and it needs a very particular configuration.\n\nI'll search for a language model node. The prompt specifies an \"E2E Chat Model.\" In n8n, this usually points to a testing or mock model that allows for predictable responses. I'd add a node of `type` `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatE2eTest`, which the JSON confirms is the \"E2E Chat Model\" node with `typeVersion` `1`. This node is explicitly designed for end-to-end testing scenarios where you want a controlled, predictable output from your \"language model,\" rather than relying on a complex, variable external AI service.\n\nNow, the connection between the `AI Agent` and this `E2E Chat Model` is crucial. The `AI Agent` node needs to know *which* language model to use. So, I need to connect the `E2E Chat Model` node's output to the `ai_languageModel` input of the `AI Agent` node. This special input port on the agent is specifically for connecting language models that the agent will utilize for its reasoning and response generation. The JSON clearly shows this connection: `\"E2E Chat Model\": {\"ai_languageModel\": [[{\"node\": \"AI Agent\", \"type\": \"ai_languageModel\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This confirms that the `AI Agent` will indeed leverage this specific E2E model.\n\nFinally, I need to configure the \"E2E Chat Model\" to always respond with the exact text requested. Looking at its parameters in the JSON, I see `{\"response\": \"Hello from **e2e** model!!!\"}`. This is perfect! I'd configure the 'response' field of this `lmChatE2eTest` node with the string \"Hello from **e2e** model!!!\". This guarantees that whenever the `AI Agent` asks this language model for a response, it will dutifully return that specific hardcoded message. This completely satisfies the requirement for the fixed response.\n\nAt this point, the workflow correctly triggers on a chat message, passes it to an AI Agent, and that agent is configured to use a specific test model that will always output \"Hello from **e2e** model!!!\". The workflow doesn't show an explicit node to *send* this message back, but the prompt's focus was on the agent *using* the model and its configuration, which is now fully set up." } { "prompt": "Generate a workflow that uses a manual trigger to send the message \"Hello everyone\" to the \"#general\" channel in Rocket.Chat, using the \"Rocket\" API credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"Hello everyone\", \"channel\": \"#general\", \"options\": {}, \"attachments\": []}, \"name\": \"Rocketchat\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.rocketchat\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Rocketchat\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this workflow. The user wants to send a specific message to a Rocket.Chat channel using a manual trigger.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the request, it explicitly states \"uses a manual trigger.\" So, that's what I'll grab first.\n\nI'm going to add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. Its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it allows the workflow to be initiated simply by me clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n interface. It doesn't require any external event or schedule; it's purely on-demand, which aligns perfectly with the \"manual trigger\" requirement. I'll place it at a good starting position, say, `[250, 300]` on our canvas. For this trigger, there are no specific parameters I need to configure, as its sole purpose is to start the flow upon manual activation.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's the next step? The goal is to \"send the message 'Hello everyone' to the '#general' channel in Rocket.Chat.\" This immediately tells me I need a Rocket.Chat integration.\n\nSo, the next node I'll add will be a `Rocketchat` node. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.rocketchat`, and it also has a `typeVersion` of `1`. This node is specifically designed for interacting with Rocket.Chat, allowing us to post messages, manage users, and so on. In our case, we're sending a message.\n\nI'll position it to the right of the trigger, perhaps at `[450, 300]`, making it clear it follows the trigger.\n\nNow, how do we connect them? The `manualTrigger` node, when executed, will simply pass on an empty item or a basic execution signal. The `Rocketchat` node doesn't need any specific data *from* the `manualTrigger` to perform its action; it just needs to know *when* to execute. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the `On clicking 'execute'` (our manual trigger) node to the `main` input of the `Rocketchat` node. This connection ensures that as soon as I click the button to trigger the workflow, the `Rocketchat` node will be activated.\n\nNext, I need to configure the `Rocketchat` node according to the requirements.\nThe prompt says: \"send the message 'Hello everyone' to the '#general' channel.\"\n\n1. **Text content:** There's a `text` parameter in the Rocket.Chat node. This is where I'll put the message content. I'll set its value to `\"Hello everyone\"`. This is the exact message the user wants to send.\n\n2. **Channel:** The prompt specifies the target as the \"`#general` channel.\" The Rocket.Chat node has a `channel` parameter. I'll set this to `\"#general\"`. This ensures the message lands in the correct chat room.\n\n3. **Credentials:** The prompt also mentions \"using the 'Rocket' API credentials.\" Every time we interact with an external service like Rocket.Chat, we need to authenticate. The `credentials` parameter is where this is handled. Here, it will reference a pre-configured credential. I'll make sure it uses the `rocketchatApi` credential, and the specific credential entry that's been named \"Rocket.\" This credential would typically contain the API key, server URL, or user login details necessary for n8n to connect securely and authorizedly to the Rocket.Chat instance. I don't need to know the specific values, just that it's linked to the correct credential set.\n\nOther parameters like `options` and `attachments` are present, but for this specific task of sending a simple text message, they can remain empty or at their default values, as we're not sending files or setting advanced message options.\n\nAnd that's it. The `manualTrigger` kicks it off, and the `Rocketchat` node, configured with the message, channel, and credentials, does the actual sending. Seems like a straightforward and effective setup for the given prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named \"Mocean:SMS:send\" that starts with a \"Start\" node.

The request is to generate an inactive workflow named \"Mocean:SMS:send\". That's the first thing to establish: the workflow's overall state and identity. So, right at the top, I'd set the `name` to \"Mocean:SMS:send\" and `active` to `false`. This ensures it won't run automatically until explicitly activated, which is good for a new build.\n\nNow, for the actual workflow structure. The prompt says it \"starts with a 'Start' node.\" That's standard practice for most n8n workflows that aren't triggered by external events. So, the very first node I'd add is the `Start` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.start` and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is essentially the entry point; it doesn't really have any configurable parameters in this context, acting as a simple trigger to kick off the subsequent operations. I'll just place it at a convenient starting position, say `[250, 300]`.\n\nNext, the prompt indicates that this \"Start\" node should connect to *two* \"Mocean\" nodes. This implies a parallel execution path from the `Start` node, meaning both Mocean nodes will receive data from the `Start` node simultaneously when the workflow runs.\n\nLet's configure the first Mocean node, the one for SMS.\nI'll add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.mocean` with `typeVersion: 1`. This specific node type is chosen because it's designed to interact directly with the Mocean API, handling the necessary communication for sending messages or making voice calls. For this particular node, it's for SMS.\nI'll give it a descriptive name, something like \"Mocean\" (as per the JSON, though I might prefer \"Mocean SMS\" for clarity if I were naming it freely).\nNow for its parameters:\n* `from`: The prompt specifies \"Nodeqa\". This would be the sender ID for the SMS.\n* `to`: The recipient is \"21624827732\".\n* `message`: This needs to be a \"dynamic message\". The JSON shows `=SMS-TEST-{{Date.now()}}`. This is a great way to make the message unique each time the workflow runs, using an n8n expression to embed the current timestamp. It ensures we're sending a fresh message for testing or tracking.\nAnd, crucially, this Mocean node needs credentials. It states \"Mocean Api creds\". This means there's a pre-configured credential set in n8n that holds the API key and secret for Mocean. I'd link to that by setting `credentials.moceanApi.name` to \"Mocean Api creds\". I'll place this node to the right of the Start node, maybe slightly above the second Mocean node at `[500, 200]`.\n\nNow for the second Mocean node, which is for voice and is disabled.\nAgain, it will be `type: n8n-nodes-base.mocean` with `typeVersion: 1`, as it's interacting with the same API but for a different resource. I'll name it \"Mocean1\" (as per the JSON, although again, \"Mocean Voice (Disabled)\" would be more descriptive for my own understanding).\nLet's configure its parameters:\n* `resource`: This is key for voice. It needs to be set to `\"voice\"`. This tells the Mocean node that it's not sending an SMS but making a voice call.\n* `from`: Again, \"Nodeqa\". This would be the caller ID.\n* `to`: The recipient is \"21624827732\", the same as for the SMS.\n* `language`: The prompt specifies \"en-GB\". This is important for voice calls to ensure the text-to-speech engine uses the correct accent and pronunciation.\n* `message`: This is also a \"dynamic message\". The JSON uses `=SMS{{Date.now()}}`. Similar to the SMS node, this makes the voice message unique on each execution.\nThis node also uses the same \"Mocean Api creds,\" so I'll link to that same credential set.\nFinally, the critical detail for this node: it needs to be `disabled`. I'll set `disabled: true`. This means even if the workflow runs and data flows into this node, it won't actually execute its operation. It's there, configured, but currently inactive. I'll place this node to the right of the Start node, slightly below the first Mocean node at `[500, 350]`.\n\nWith both Mocean nodes configured, the last step is to establish the connections. The \"Start\" node needs to connect to both \"Mocean\" (SMS) and \"Mocean1\" (Voice). In n8n, this is typically done by having the `Start` node's main output connect to the inputs of both subsequent nodes. So, in the `connections` object, I'd define that `Start`'s `main` output should go to `Mocean` (type `main`, index `0`) and `Mocean1` (type `main`, index `0`). This correctly sets up the parallel flow.\n\nAnd that pretty much completes the design of this specific workflow based on the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON containing a single Webhook node at position `[360, 220]` with its path set to `FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`.

My goal here is to create a workflow that gets triggered by an incoming HTTP request, which usually means it's the entry point for some external system or application.\n\nThinking about how to start a workflow based on an external trigger, the first node that comes to mind, and really the only one that fits this description directly, is the `Webhook` node. It's designed specifically to listen for incoming HTTP requests and pass their data into the workflow. So, I'll definitely add a `Webhook` node to the canvas. I see from the plan that it's of `type` `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion 2`. Version 2 is typically the most current and stable one, so that's the one I'd use, ensuring I have the latest features and structure for this node.\n\nNow that I have the `Webhook` node, I need to place it properly on the canvas. The prompt specifies `[360, 220]` for its `position`. This helps keep the workflow organized and readable, especially as it grows more complex. So, I'll set its `position` property to `[360, 220]`.\n\nNext, I need to configure the `Webhook` node so it knows what path to listen on. The prompt clearly states its `path` should be `FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`. This is a critical piece of information because it forms the unique part of the URL that external systems will call to trigger this specific workflow. I'll configure this within the node's `parameters`, setting the `path` field accordingly. There's also an `options` object within `parameters`, but for a simple webhook trigger, it's typically empty unless specific advanced configurations like response mode or authentication are needed, which is not the case here.\n\nThe node will automatically get an `id` and a `webhookId` assigned by n8n when it's created and saved. These are internal identifiers for the node and the webhook endpoint itself, respectively. The `name` defaults to \"Webhook,\" which is perfectly fine and descriptive for its role.\n\nSince the request is for a single Webhook node and no other processing or actions are specified, there are no `connections` to worry about in this workflow. It's a standalone entry point.\n\nFinally, and this is a very important part for testing and development, I need to include `pinData`. `pinData` is incredibly useful because it allows me to simulate what data the node would receive during a test execution, without having to actually send a real HTTP request from an external source. For a `Webhook` node, this means simulating an incoming HTTP request's details.\n\nSo, within the `pinData` object, I'll target the `Webhook` node by its name. I'll then create an array for its simulated inputs. In this case, there's just one simulated input item.\n\nInside this simulated input, I need to define the structure of a typical webhook request.\n- The prompt asks for \"typical webhook headers\". So, I'll add a `headers` object. This would include common headers like `connection: keep-alive`, a `user-agent` (simulating a browser or tool), `accept` types (what content types the client can handle), and the `host` where the request is being sent. There might also be a `cookie` header, which would typically contain session or authentication information, and `accept-encoding` for compression preferences. These headers mimic what a real web client would send.\n- The prompt explicitly states \"no body, query, or URL parameters.\" So, for `params` (URL path parameters), `query` (URL query string parameters), and `body` (the request body), I'll make sure these are all empty objects `{}`. This ensures the simulation accurately reflects the prompt's requirements for a minimal webhook request.\n- I'll also include the `webhookUrl` in the `pinData`. This would be the full URL that was conceptually hit to trigger the webhook, usually containing the `webhook-test` segment for simulated executions, and based on the configured `path`. For example, `http:\/\/localhost:5678\/webhook-test\/FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`.\n- Finally, I'll set the `executionMode` to `test`. This is crucial for n8n to understand that this is a simulated execution for testing purposes, not a live production run.\n\nThis `pinData` setup makes the workflow instantly testable, allowing me to verify how subsequent nodes (if there were any) would react to this specific incoming webhook data, without needing to repeatedly set up and send external test requests.

We need something that can trigger on a schedule. Looking at the available nodes, a \"Cron\" node is perfect for this. It's designed specifically for time-based triggers. So, I'd start by dragging out a **Cron** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.cron`, typeVersion: 1).\n\nNow, how do we configure this Cron node to run every minute? I'd go into its parameters. There's a `triggerTimes` setting, and within that, an `item` array. We'd select the `mode` option and set it to `everyMinute`. This ensures our workflow kicks off exactly when we need it to, sixty times an hour. This is our entry point, our heartbeat for the whole process.\n\nNext, once the workflow is triggered by the Cron node, we need to actually *generate* the mock sensor data. The prompt specifies `sensor_id`, a `random value`, `timestamp`, and `notification`. This kind of custom data generation or manipulation often points to a \"Function\" node. A Function node allows us to write JavaScript code directly within the workflow to create or transform data. So, the output of our Cron node will feed directly into a **Function** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.function`, typeVersion: 1). We'll connect the `main` output of the Cron node to the `main` input of the Function node.\n\nInside this Function node, we'll write the logic. The goal is to create data that looks like sensor readings.\nI'll start by getting the current date and time, because a timestamp is explicitly required.\n```javascript\nvar today = new Date();\nvar date = today.getFullYear()+'-'+(today.getMonth()+1)+'-'+today.getDate();\nvar time = today.getHours() + \":\" + today.getMinutes() + \":\" + today.getSeconds();\nvar dateTime = date+' '+time;\n```\nThis gives us a `dateTime` string in a format that's generally easy for databases to handle.\n\nThen, we need to add this data to the item that the Function node receives. In n8n, input data typically comes in `items[0].json`. We want to *add* properties to this object.\n```javascript\nitems[0].json.sensor_id = 'humidity01';\nitems[0].json.value = Math.ceil(Math.random()*100);\nitems[0].json.time_stamp = dateTime;\nitems[0].json.notification = false;\n```\nHere, `sensor_id` is a static string, `value` is a random number between 1 and 100 (using `Math.random` and `Math.ceil`), `time_stamp` is our freshly generated timestamp, and `notification` is initially set to `false`. This setup perfectly matches the requirements for the mock sensor data.\n\nFinally, we need to return the modified `items` so the data can be passed to the next node:\n```javascript\nreturn items;\n```\nThis ensures the newly generated data is available for the next step.\n\nNow that we have our data generated, the last step is to insert it into the `n8n` table in a Postgres database. This clearly calls for a database node, specifically a \"Postgres\" node. So, the output of our Function node will go into a **Postgres** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.postgres`, typeVersion: 1). Again, we'll connect the `main` output of the Function node to the `main` input of the Postgres node.\n\nConfiguring the Postgres node:\nFirst, we need to tell it which table to use. The prompt specifies the `n8n` table, so in the `table` parameter, I'll put `n8n`.\nNext, for inserting data, we need to define the columns we're targeting. Since our Function node generated `sensor_id`, `value`, `time_stamp`, and `notification`, these are the columns we'll list in the `columns` parameter: `sensor_id,value,time_stamp,notification`. This is crucial as it tells the Postgres node how to map the incoming JSON data to the database table columns.\n\nFinally, for any database interaction, we need credentials. There will be a `credentials` field, which will reference a pre-configured Postgres credential (e.g., named \"Postgres\" as shown in the JSON). This credential would hold the actual database connection details like host, port, database name, username, and password, but those are managed separately for security and reusability. We're just pointing to the named credential here.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow starts every minute, generates the data, and inserts it into the database. Each node serves a very specific purpose, flowing data seamlessly from one step to the next until the final action is completed." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON named 'GetOnboardingFile Screen recording' that, when triggered by a webhook at 'onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/ScreenRecording', fetches content from the Google Doc 'https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/12cTlNBqbt3I2218rYg3gaIQBiSCd3cN2I2czDQbY-e8\/edit?usp=sharing' and responds to the webhook with the retrieved text.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to set up an endpoint that, when hit, goes and fetches text from a specific Google Doc and then sends that text right back to whoever triggered the endpoint.\n\nFirst things first, any workflow that's meant to be triggered externally needs an entry point. For something like an API call or an external system hitting our workflow, a Webhook is the perfect choice. So, I'd start by adding a **Webhook** node. This node has a `type` of `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and here we see `typeVersion` 2. This version is quite standard and robust for handling incoming requests.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Webhook node? The prompt specifies a precise path: \"onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/ScreenRecording\". So, I'd set the `path` parameter to exactly that. This ensures our workflow listens for requests only at that specific URL segment. We also need to decide how the Webhook will respond. Since we're going to fetch content and then respond *with* that content, we should set the `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node that it shouldn't send an immediate default response but instead wait for a subsequent node in the workflow to handle the response. This is crucial for our use case.\n\nOnce the Webhook is listening and ready, the next step in our flow is to actually get the content from the Google Doc. To interact with Google Docs, the most straightforward node is the **Google Docs** node. So, I'd connect the \"Webhook\" node's \"main\" output to the \"main\" input of a new \"Google Docs\" node. This node has a `type` of `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion` 2.\n\nFor the Google Docs node, we need to specify what we want to do. The operation here is clearly to \"get\" content from a document, so I'd set the `operation` parameter to `get`. Then, we need to tell it which document to get the content from. The prompt provides a specific Google Doc URL, so that URL would be entered into the `documentURL` parameter. Of course, to access a Google Doc, the node will also require authentication. We'd configure a Google Docs OAuth2 credential, allowing the workflow to securely connect to Google's API on behalf of a user or service account with access to the document. This is handled by a `credentials` field, which would contain a reference to a pre-configured credential.\n\nAfter the Google Docs node successfully fetches the content, it will output that content, typically in a field like `content`. Our final step is to take this retrieved content and send it back as the response to the initial webhook trigger. For this, the **Respond to Webhook** node is exactly what we need. I'd connect the \"Google Docs\" node's \"main\" output to the \"main\" input of this new \"Respond to Webhook\" node. This node has a `type` of `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion` 1.1.\n\nIn the Respond to Webhook node, we need to tell it *what* to respond with and *how*. The prompt specifies responding with the retrieved text, so I'd set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`. Then, for the `responseBody`, we need to dynamically insert the content we just got from the Google Docs node. n8n's expression syntax makes this simple: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression accesses the `content` property from the JSON output of the previous node (the Google Docs node in this case). This ensures the text we fetched is exactly what's sent back to the webhook caller.\n\nFinally, while the nodes handle the logic, the workflow itself has some metadata. The prompt asked for specific tags: 'Lg', 'Day1', 'Files', and 'Onboarding'. These would be assigned to the workflow directly in its `tags` property, helping with organization and searchability within n8n. The workflow name, \"GetOnboardingFile Screen recording\", would also be set at the top level. And, of course, for it to function, the workflow needs to be `active`, which it is." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON that starts with a manual trigger node named 'When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019' and connects to an 'n8n' node.

The user prompt clearly states that it \"starts with a manual trigger node named 'When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019'\". This gives me a clear starting point.\n\nSo, the very first node I'll place on the canvas would be a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the provided JSON, I can see this corresponds to the node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `name: \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\"`. This is ideal because a manual trigger is specifically designed to run a workflow when someone clicks a button (like \"Test workflow\" or \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n UI). It's a simple, direct way to start a process without needing external events or schedules. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is a standard version for this node, ensuring basic manual triggering functionality. It doesn't require any specific parameters to be set, so its `parameters` object is empty, which is exactly what I'd expect.\n\nNext, the prompt says this manual trigger \"connects to an 'n8n' node.\" This indicates that immediately after the workflow is manually triggered, the control flow should pass to an n8n node.\n\nSo, I'll add an **n8n** node right after the manual trigger. In the JSON, this is the node with `name: \"n8n\"` and `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.n8n\"`. This node is absolutely crucial here because the overall goal is to \"manage a 'credential' resource\". The n8n node is the only built-in way to interact with the n8n instance's own API, allowing us to manage internal resources like credentials, workflows, users, and more. Its `typeVersion` is also `1`.\n\nNow, let's configure this n8n node according to the prompt. It needs to be \"configured to manage a 'credential' resource named '123' of type '123', utilizing an 'n8n account' credential with ID '10'.\"\n\nLooking at the n8n node's `parameters` in the JSON, I see:\n* `\"resource\": \"credential\"`: This setting tells the n8n node that its operation will be focused on `credential` resources within n8n. This matches the requirement perfectly.\n* `\"name\": \"123\"`: This parameter specifies the particular credential by its name that the operation will target. So, it's looking for a credential specifically named '123'.\n* `\"credentialTypeName\": \"123\"`: This parameter indicates the type of the credential being managed. In n8n, credentials have types (like \"API Key\", \"OAuth2 API\", or custom types). Here, the type is specified as '123'. This helps narrow down which credential to manage, especially if multiple credentials share the same name but are of different types.\n\nFinally, for the n8n node to actually perform operations on the n8n instance, it needs authentication. The prompt states it should be \"utilizing an 'n8n account' credential with ID '10'.\" In the JSON, under the n8n node's `credentials`, I see `{\"n8nApi\": {\"id\": \"10\", \"name\": \"n8n account\"}}`. This is where we link the n8n node to an existing API credential configured in n8n. This credential (identified by its ID '10' and named 'n8n account') would contain the necessary authentication details\u2014such as an API key or an OAuth token\u2014that grants the workflow the permissions to interact with and manage the n8n instance's resources, including credentials. Without this, the n8n node wouldn't have the authority to make any changes.\n\nAfter setting up both nodes, the final step is to connect them. The `connections` object in the JSON shows `\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"n8n\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This means the `main` output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node connects directly to the `main` input of the \"n8n\" node. This is a straightforward sequential connection: once the manual trigger is activated, it simply passes the execution flow to the n8n node, signaling it to perform its configured operation. There's no specific data transformation or complex routing needed here; it's a direct handover of control." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFileWhat is Artificial Intelligence?' that is tagged 'AI Onboarding', 'Day1', 'Files', and 'Onboarding'.

The main goal here is pretty clear: we need to set up an n8n workflow that kicks off when a specific webhook is hit, then goes and grabs content from a Google Doc, and finally sends that content back as the response to the original webhook.\n\nFirst things first, how do we get this workflow to start? The prompt explicitly states it should \"trigger via a webhook\". So, the very first node we'll need is a webhook listener.\n\nI'll add a **Webhook** node. This is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 2`. This node is perfect for listening for incoming HTTP requests and initiating a workflow execution. For its configuration, it's crucial to set up the `path` correctly. This is the unique identifier that the webhook will respond to \u2013 a specific, secret-like string that ensures only authorized requests trigger it. The prompt mentions a specific path, which would be configured here. Then, we need to decide how this webhook will respond. Since the final step is to respond *with content from a later node*, I'll set its `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells the webhook to wait for a subsequent \"Respond to Webhook\" node in the workflow to handle the actual HTTP response, giving us control over what's sent back.\n\nNow that we have the trigger in place, what's the next step? The prompt says \"then fetch content from the Google Doc\". This immediately points me to an integration with Google Docs.\n\nSo, I'll connect the output of the **Webhook** node to a **Google Docs** node. This will be `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` with `typeVersion: 2`. This node is specifically designed to interact with Google Docs, letting us perform various operations like creating, updating, or, in this case, fetching documents. For the operation, it's pretty straightforward: we need to `get` the content of a document. The critical piece of configuration for this node is the `documentURL`. This is where we'd specify the direct link to the Google Doc we want to retrieve the content from. Of course, this node will also require authentication, so we'd need to set up appropriate Google Docs API credentials, which would be linked here.\n\nFinally, the workflow needs to \"respond to the initial webhook with the fetched document's content\". This means we need a node that can take the data we just got from Google Docs and send it back through the original webhook connection.\n\nI'll connect the **Google Docs** node to a **Respond to Webhook** node. This is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node is designed precisely for the `responseNode` mode we set up on the initial Webhook node. It allows us to control the HTTP response sent back to the client that triggered the workflow. For its configuration, since we're sending back document content, `respondWith` should be set to `text`. And then, for the `responseBody`, we need to dynamically insert the content fetched by the previous Google Docs node. Looking at the data output from a Google Docs 'get' operation, the document's content is typically available under a field like `content` in the JSON data. So, I would use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` to pull that data directly from the preceding node's output and send it back as the response body.\n\nIn terms of the overall workflow settings, the prompt also mentions specific details like the workflow's name \"GetOnboardingFileWhat is Artificial Intelligence?\" and tags like 'AI Onboarding', 'Day1', 'Files', and 'Onboarding'. These would be configured in the workflow's general settings, helping with organization and discoverability within the n8n interface.

This is a pretty straightforward requirement: a trigger and then an action to manipulate data.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, something that kicks it off. The prompt says \"when triggered\". Looking at the JSON, I see the first node is an \"Execute Workflow Trigger\". That makes perfect sense. This is an internal n8n trigger node, of `type: n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`. It's suitable here because it allows the workflow to be manually executed, or triggered by another workflow. It's a fundamental way to initiate a flow without needing an external event like a webhook or a schedule. Its parameters are empty, which means it's just set up to fire when called, not requiring any specific input configuration itself. I'd place this at the beginning of my workflow canvas.\n\nNow that we have the trigger, what's next? The goal is to set a field named \"response\" with a specific static value. For this kind of data manipulation\u2014specifically, adding or modifying fields on an item\u2014the `Set` node is the ideal choice. It's designed precisely for this purpose: to set, unset, or rename fields on items passing through it.\n\nLooking at the JSON, the second node is indeed named \"Edit Fields\" (a common user-given name for a Set node) and its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, with `typeVersion: 3.4`. This confirms my choice. The `Set` node is incredibly versatile for shaping the data structure as it flows through the workflow.\n\nNext, I need to connect these two nodes. The \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" node needs to pass its output to the \"Edit Fields\" node. In n8n, the default `main` output usually connects to the `main` input of the next node. The JSON confirms this: `connections` shows `\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the data (or in this case, just the trigger signal) from the `Execute Workflow Trigger` will flow directly into the `Edit Fields` node.\n\nNow, let's configure the \"Edit Fields\" node. The requirement is to set a field called \"response\" to \"10 results found\".\nWithin the `parameters` of the `Set` node, I'd go into the `assignments` section. This is where I define what fields I want to add or change. I'd add a new assignment.\nThe JSON shows:\n```json\n\"assignments\": {\n \"assignments\": [\n {\n \"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\",\n \"name\": \"response\",\n \"value\": \"10 results found\",\n \"type\": \"string\"\n }\n ]\n}\n```\nThis configuration is perfect. I'd specify the `name` of the new field as \"response\". Then, for its `value`, I'd input the static string \"10 results found\". And importantly, I'd set the `type` of this value to \"string\", which accurately reflects the nature of the data. There are no other options specified, so I'd leave those as default.\n\nSo, to summarize the flow: The workflow starts when the \"Execute Workflow Trigger\" fires. It then passes an empty item (or a default one, depending on how the trigger is set up elsewhere) to the \"Edit Fields\" node. The \"Edit Fields\" node receives this item and, as per its configuration, adds a new field named \"response\" to it, populated with the static string \"10 results found\". The workflow would then effectively complete, outputting an item containing that \"response\" field.

There's no external event or schedule; it's purely on-demand. For a basic trigger like this, there are no specific parameters to configure; it just provides a single item to get the execution going. I'd place it somewhere on the left side of my canvas, maybe around `[250, 300]`, as a good starting point.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt tells us it \"connects to a Hunter node configured to perform an email verification.\" This immediately tells me what the very next node needs to be.\n\nI'll add a **Hunter** node.

This specific node type is absolutely essential here because it's designed to interact directly with the Hunter.io API, which is what we need for email verification.\n\nI'll then connect the output of my \"On clicking 'execute'\" (the Manual Trigger) to the input of this new \"Hunter\" node. This ensures that when I manually trigger the workflow, the execution flow immediately passes to the Hunter node, telling it to run. The `main` output of the trigger connects directly to the `main` input of the Hunter node; it's a straightforward, linear flow. I'll position it to the right of the trigger, maybe around `[450, 300]`, to maintain a clear visual flow from left to right.\n\nNow, for the configuration of this Hunter node. The prompt is quite specific here: \"configured to perform an email verification on 'user@example.com', using Hunter API credentials.\"\n\nUnder the parameters for the Hunter node, I'll need to set the `operation`. Hunter.io offers several functionalities like domain search, email finder, etc., but the request is for \"email verification.\" So, I'll select `emailVerifier` for the `operation` parameter. This is crucial for telling the node exactly what Hunter.io API endpoint to call.\n\nNext, within those same parameters, I need to specify *which* email to verify. The prompt states `\"user@example.com\"`. So, I'll set the `email` parameter to that specific email address. If this were a more dynamic workflow, I might think about passing the email address from a previous node's output, but for this straightforward request, hardcoding it directly in the node's configuration is perfectly fine.\n\nFinally, and this is critical for any API-based node, the Hunter node needs credentials to authenticate with the Hunter.io service. Under the `credentials` section, there will be a field for `hunterApi`. This is where I would link the specific API credentials that have been previously set up in n8n for my Hunter.io account. Without these, the node wouldn't be able to make any successful calls to the Hunter.io API. I wouldn't specify the actual API key here, of course, just link the generic credential reference that n8n manages.\n\nAnd that's it. The manual trigger kicks things off, passes execution to the Hunter node, which then performs the configured email verification using the specified email and API credentials. It's a very direct and focused workflow. No other nodes or complex data transformations are needed based on the request." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Search DB'. It should start with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node, which then connects to a 'Set' node that assigns the string '10 results found' to a field named 'response'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Search DB\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [640, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"6ad8dc55-20f3-45af-a724-c7ecac90d338\", \"name\": \"response\", \"value\": \"10 results found\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [860, 380]}], \"connections\": {\"Execute Workflow Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's break down how I'd approach building this n8n workflow, thinking through each step.\n\nFirst, the user prompt is clear: the workflow needs to be named \"Search DB\". So, that's the very first thing I'd set up for the workflow itself \u2013 its overall identifier.\n\nNow, for the actual flow of operations. The prompt specifies how it should start: \"It should start with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node.\" This is a crucial piece of information. An `Execute Workflow Trigger` node is essentially a manual trigger or an endpoint that can be called by another workflow. It doesn't listen for external events or run on a schedule; it simply kicks off the workflow when it's explicitly told to. So, my first node in the canvas would definitely be this one. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` and it's `typeVersion: 1`. This type of node typically doesn't require any specific parameters to be configured within it; its purpose is purely to initiate the workflow's execution. So, the `parameters` block for this node would remain empty, as shown in the JSON.\n\nNext, the prompt states that this trigger node \"then connects to a 'Set' node that assigns the string '10 results found' to a field named 'response'.\"\nA 'Set' node (which in the n8n UI and JSON is often labeled as \"Edit Fields\" for its `name` property, as seen here) is the perfect choice for this task. Its primary function is to manipulate or create data fields on the items that pass through it. It allows me to add new fields, modify existing ones, or even remove them. Given the requirement to *assign* a value to a *field*, the 'Set' node is exactly what I need.\n\nSo, I'd drag a 'Set' node onto the canvas. Its type, according to the JSON, is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and it's `typeVersion: 3.4`. Different `typeVersion` numbers can sometimes indicate minor changes or new features in a node's capabilities, but for a simple assignment like this, the core functionality remains consistent across reasonable versions.\n\nNow for the configuration of this 'Set' node. The prompt is very specific: \"assigns the string '10 results found' to a field named 'response'.\"\nInside the 'Set' node's parameters, there's an `assignments` array. This is where I define each individual field modification.\nI'd add a new assignment entry.\n* For the `name` property of this assignment, I'd input \"response\". This is the name of the new field that will be created or updated on the incoming items.\n* For the `value` property, I'd put \"10 results found\". This is the actual data I want to store in the 'response' field.\n* And critically, I need to specify the `type` of this value. The prompt says \"the string '10 results found',\" so I'd set the `type` to \"string\". This ensures n8n treats \"10 results found\" as plain text rather than, say, trying to parse it as a number or a boolean. The JSON accurately reflects this parameter configuration.\n\nFinally, the connection. The prompt clearly states the trigger \"then connects to\" the 'Set' node. This implies a direct flow. So, I would draw a connection from the `main` output of the `Execute Workflow Trigger` node to the `main` input of the 'Edit Fields' (Set) node. The JSON's `connections` block confirms this, showing the `Execute Workflow Trigger` connecting its `main` output to `Edit Fields`'s `main` input at index `0`. This ensures that when the workflow is triggered, the execution flow and any potential data (though none is generated by this trigger) are passed directly to the 'Set' node for processing.\n\nThat completes the workflow as per the requirements. The workflow would be initially `active: false`, meaning it's saved but not running, which is a typical default state for a newly created workflow. Other fields like `id`, `versionId`, and `meta` are just internal identifiers and metadata n8n uses, not something I'd manually configure as part of the core logic design." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'My workflow 52'. It starts with a manual trigger, flows to a 'Set' node ('Edit Fields') pre-populated with sample contact data, then to a 'Code' node ('Break pairedItem chain') that returns `[{ \"field\": \"the same\" }]`, and finally to another 'Set' node ('Error') which dynamically references the 'name' field from the 'Edit Fields' node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow 52\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"jsCode\": \"\\nreturn [\\n {\\n \\\"field\\\": \\\"the same\\\"\\n }\\n];\"}, \"name\": \"Break pairedItem chain\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.code\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [240, 1020]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.2, \"position\": [40, 1020]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [-180, 1020]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fields\": {\"values\": [{\"stringValue\": \"={{ $('Edit Fields').item.json.name }}\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Error\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.2, \"position\": [460, 1020]}], \"connections\": {\"Break pairedItem chain\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Error\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Edit Fields\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Break pairedItem chain\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is pretty clear about the sequence of nodes and their purpose, so I'll follow that step-by-step.\n\nFirst things first, I need to name this workflow. The prompt specifies \"My workflow 52,\" so I'll set that right away. It's good practice to name workflows clearly from the start.\n\nNow, for the actual nodes. The prompt says it \"starts with a manual trigger.\" That's easy. I'll drag over a **Manual Trigger** node. This node, `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`, is perfect because it allows me to manually initiate the workflow for testing and development, which is exactly what I'd want when building from the ground up. It doesn't require any special configuration; it just waits for me to click the \"Execute Workflow\" button.\n\nNext, the prompt says it \"flows to a 'Set' node ('Edit Fields') pre-populated with sample contact data.\" So, from my **Manual Trigger**, I'll connect an output to a new node. This new node will be a **Set** node. I'll name it \"Edit Fields\" as requested. The Set node, `n8n-nodes-base.set` (with `typeVersion: 3.2`), is ideal here because its primary function is to manipulate or define data that will then flow through the workflow. In this case, it's about introducing initial, static data. The interesting part here is that the data is \"pre-populated.\" This isn't done through the node's explicit parameters in the workflow JSON, but rather through the `pinData` section of the overall workflow definition. This means that when the workflow is imported or loaded, this 'Edit Fields' node will already have the specified sample contact data available as its output. It's essentially like having the data \"pinned\" to this node's output from the very beginning. I'm seeing a list of contacts with fields like 'id', 'name', 'email', 'notes', 'country', and 'created'. This is perfect for setting up a scenario where I'm dealing with contact information.\n\nFollowing that, the prompt specifies \"then to a 'Code' node ('Break pairedItem chain') that returns `[{ \"field\": \"the same\" }]`.\" Okay, so from \"Edit Fields\", I'll draw another connection to a new node, which will be a **Code** node. I'll give it the name \"Break pairedItem chain\" as requested. The Code node, `n8n-nodes-base.code` (with `typeVersion: 2`), is extremely versatile for custom logic. It lets me write JavaScript to process incoming data, transform it, or, as in this case, generate entirely new output. The specific instruction to return `[{ \"field\": \"the same\" }]` means I'll put that exact JavaScript code into the `jsCode` parameter of the node. This is a common pattern when you want to reset the data structure or ensure a specific, fixed output for the next node, regardless of what came into the Code node. It explicitly returns a new item with a single field.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"and finally to another 'Set' node ('Error') which dynamically references the 'name' field from the 'Edit Fields' node.\" So, my last connection will be from \"Break pairedItem chain\" to a new **Set** node. I'll name this one \"Error\". Again, it's a `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, `typeVersion: 3.2`. The key here is \"dynamically references.\" This means I'll need to use an expression to pull data from a *previous* node. Specifically, it needs the 'name' field from the 'Edit Fields' node. Even though the 'Code' node just returned `[{ \"field\": \"the same\" }]`, the expression `{{ $('Edit Fields').item.json.name }}` will reach *back* to the output of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This is very powerful in n8n; you can access data from any preceding node in the workflow path. For each item processed by this 'Error' node, it will effectively look up the corresponding 'name' from the original 'Edit Fields' item. So, if 'Edit Fields' outputs multiple contacts, this 'Error' node will process each one, dynamically pulling *its* specific 'name' value. The `stringValue` parameter will be set to this expression, effectively creating a field whose value is the name from the initial contact data.\n\nAnd that completes the flow! Manual Trigger, setting up the initial data with the first Set node, a Code node to perform a specific data manipulation (or in this case, a reset), and then a final Set node to process that original data again, referencing a specific field. It's a linear, clear path." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that, when manually triggered, creates a new Google Sheet titled \"This is a TEST.\"", "json": "{\"name\": \"Google sheets\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"spreadsheet\", \"title\": \"This is a TEST\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Google Sheets\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets\", \"typeVersion\": 4.5, \"position\": [220, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Sheets\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's think about how to build this workflow from the ground up, aiming to create a Google Sheet when manually triggered.\n\nFirst, I need to consider how this whole process is going to start. The prompt explicitly says \"when manually triggered.\" So, the very first thing I'll need is a trigger node that allows someone to kick off the workflow themselves.\n\nLooking at the n8n nodes, the most suitable one for a manual start is the `manualTrigger` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and I see it's using `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect because it provides that \"Test workflow\" button in the n8n interface, allowing for direct initiation. I don't really need to configure anything specific on this node; its default behavior of triggering when clicked is exactly what's required. So, I'd place this node down as my starting point.\n\nNow that I have the trigger, what's the next step? The goal is to \"create a new Google Sheet titled 'This is a TEST.'\" This clearly indicates I'll need a node that can interact with Google Sheets.\n\nSo, I'd search for a Google Sheets integration node. The `googleSheets` node, with `type: n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets` and `typeVersion: 4.5`, seems like the right choice. A newer `typeVersion` might offer additional features or slightly different parameter names, but this version should certainly be capable of creating a sheet.\n\nOnce I've added the Google Sheets node, I need to configure it to perform the specific action of creating a spreadsheet.\nI'll go into its parameters. The `resource` parameter needs to be set to `spreadsheet` because I'm not just updating a row or a specific cell; I'm creating an entirely new sheet.\nThen, for the operation, although it's not explicitly listed as `operation: \"create\"` in the JSON, by setting the `resource` to `spreadsheet` and providing a `title`, the implicit or default operation for the Google Sheets node when creating a *new* spreadsheet would be \"create.\" If I were trying to get or update an existing sheet, I'd be looking for a `spreadsheetId` parameter instead of or in addition to the `title`.\n\nCrucially, the prompt specifies the title: \"This is a TEST.\" So, I'd set the `title` parameter within the Google Sheets node to exactly \"This is a TEST.\"\nThe `options` parameter is empty, which means I don't need any additional configurations like putting the sheet in a specific folder or pre-filling it with initial data. This keeps it simple, just creating an empty sheet with the given title.\n\nFinally, for the Google Sheets node to work, it needs to authenticate with Google. This is handled by the `credentials` section. I wouldn't put any specific sensitive values here, but I'd know that a `googleSheetsOAuth2Api` credential would need to be set up and selected. This is where the workflow gets permission to access my Google Drive to create the sheet.\n\nOnce both nodes are in place and configured, I need to connect them. The `manualTrigger` needs to pass its execution to the `googleSheets` node. Looking at the `connections` in the JSON, I see `{\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Sheets\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This tells me that the \"main\" output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node (which is my `manualTrigger`) is connected to the \"main\" input of the \"Google Sheets\" node. This is a standard sequential flow \u2013 once the trigger fires, it tells the Google Sheets node to execute. No special data transformation is needed between them; the trigger simply signals the next node to run.\n\nThat pretty much covers it. The trigger starts, passes control, and the Google Sheets node creates the specified sheet." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that is manually triggered and sends an email via AWS SES. The email should have the subject 'n8n Rocks', a body of 'This is a sample message body in an email', be sent from 'n8n@n8n.io' to 'user@example.com' and 'user2@example.com', and utilize AWS credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"body\": \"This is a sample message body in an email\\n\", \"subject\": \"n8n Rocks\", \"fromEmail\": \"n8n@n8n.io\", \"toAddresses\": [\"user@example.com\", \"user2@example.com\"], \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"AWS SES\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.awsSes\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AWS SES\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's design this workflow from scratch, step by step, imagining I'm in the n8n editor.\n\nThe first thing I look at is the prompt's requirement: \"Generate an n8n workflow that is manually triggered...\"\n\nOkay, so the very first step needs to be a trigger that I can initiate directly. For that, the most appropriate node is the \"Manual Trigger.\" It's perfect because it simply starts the workflow when you click the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n UI.\n\nSo, I'd drag out a \"Manual Trigger\" node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Node Display Name:** It's usually displayed as \"On clicking 'execute'\" which is quite descriptive.\n* **TypeVersion:** `1` (This is the standard version, and for a simple trigger like this, I wouldn't expect a different version to change its core behavior much, if at all).\n* **Parameters:** Looking at the JSON, it doesn't have any specific parameters configured (`{}`). That makes sense, as its sole purpose is to start the workflow on demand, not to take any input values at this stage. It just signals the beginning.\n\nNext, I need to figure out what the workflow *does* once it's triggered. The prompt says: \"...and sends an email via AWS SES.\"\n\nThis immediately tells me I need an \"AWS SES\" node. AWS SES (Simple Email Service) is Amazon's email sending service, and n8n has a dedicated node for it, which is fantastic.\n\nSo, I'd bring in the \"AWS SES\" node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.awsSes`\n* **Node Display Name:** \"AWS SES\"\n* **TypeVersion:** `1` (Again, standard version. For an email sending node, a different version might introduce new features like template support or enhanced error handling, but the core 'send email' functionality usually remains consistent).\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? Since the manual trigger is just initiating the process, and the AWS SES node is the action that follows, I'll connect the \"main\" output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the \"main\" input of the \"AWS SES\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger fires, it passes control directly to the AWS SES node, telling it to execute. There's no data being passed between them in this scenario, just the flow of execution.\n\nWith the nodes in place and connected, it's time to configure the \"AWS SES\" node based on the email details provided in the prompt:\n\n* \"The email should have the subject 'n8n Rocks'...\"\n * I'll find the `subject` parameter in the \"AWS SES\" node's configuration and input \"n8n Rocks\" directly into it.\n* \"...a body of 'This is a sample message body in an email'...\"\n * Similarly, for the `body` parameter, I'll put \"This is a sample message body in an email\". The JSON shows a newline character at the end (`\\n`), which might happen if the text was entered into a multi-line input field and a carriage return was included, but functionally for email content, it's just part of the body text.\n* \"...be sent from 'n8n@n8n.io'...\"\n * This clearly goes into the `fromEmail` parameter. So, \"n8n@n8n.io\" will be entered there.\n* \"...to 'user@example.com' and 'user2@example.com'...\"\n * The `toAddresses` parameter typically expects an array of email addresses for multiple recipients. I would add \"user@example.com\" as the first item and \"user2@example.com\" as the second item in that list.\n* \"...and utilize AWS credentials.\"\n * Crucially, the \"AWS SES\" node needs to authenticate with AWS. This means I'd need to link a pre-configured AWS credential resource. In the JSON, it simply shows `credentials: {\"aws\": \"aws\"}`, which implies that a credential entry specifically named \"aws\" (or with an internal ID of \"aws\") is selected. This credential would contain the necessary access key and secret key to allow n8n to interact with AWS SES. I'd typically just select \"My AWS Credentials\" or whatever the appropriate credential resource is called in my n8n instance.\n* The `additionalFields` parameter in the JSON is an empty object (`{}`), meaning no extra headers, reply-to addresses, or other specific SES options were requested, so I'd leave that blank or at its default empty state.\n\nAnd that would complete the workflow design. It's a very straightforward, two-node workflow, doing exactly what was requested: manually triggered email sending via AWS SES with specific content and recipients." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a \"Pushcut Trigger\" node configured for the \"Leaving Home\" action.

The prompt clearly states, \"starts with a \"Pushcut Trigger\" node configured for the \"Leaving Home\" action.\" This immediately tells me my first node.\n\nI'll add a **Pushcut Trigger** node.\n* Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.pushcutTrigger`. This is the perfect node type because it's designed to listen for specific events from the Pushcut service, which acts as our entry point for this workflow.\n* Looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This means I'm using a specific version of this node's functionality. Different versions might have slight differences in how parameters are named or how they behave, but for now, I'll stick to version 1 as provided.\n* Now, for its configuration. The prompt says \"configured for the 'Leaving Home' action.\" So, within the node's parameters, I'd find the `actionName` field and set its value to \"Leaving Home.\" This ensures the workflow only triggers when a Pushcut event specifically labeled \"Leaving Home\" occurs.\n* Of course, for this node to work, it needs to authenticate with the Pushcut service. So, it would require Pushcut API credentials to be set up \u2013 a general API key or token that allows n8n to connect to my Pushcut account.\n* The JSON also shows an empty `webhookId`. This is typical; when you save and activate an n8n workflow with a Pushcut Trigger, n8n automatically generates a unique webhook URL that you then configure within the Pushcut app itself. It's not something I'd manually set here initially.\n\nOkay, so the trigger is in place. What happens next? The prompt states, \"This should then send an SMS via a \"Twilio\" node.\" This gives me my next node and its purpose.\n\nI'll connect the output of the **Pushcut Trigger** node to the input of a new **Twilio** node.\n* The type for this node will be `n8n-nodes-base.twilio`. This is the standard node for interacting with the Twilio API, which is a common way to send SMS messages programmatically. It's exactly what we need for this step.\n* Again, the JSON specifies `typeVersion: 1` for this node. I'll use this version. It indicates the specific interface and features available for this Twilio integration.\n* Now, let's configure the Twilio node. The prompt is very specific: \"send an SMS via a \"Twilio\" node to \"123\" from \"123\".\"\n * So, I'd set the `to` parameter to \"123\" (this would be the recipient's phone number).\n * And I'd set the `from` parameter to \"123\" (this would be the sender's Twilio phone number).\n* The most interesting part of the message is its content: \"with the message dynamically stating \"I'm \" followed by the input received from the Pushcut Trigger.\" This tells me I need to use an expression to pull data from the previous node.\n * In the `message` parameter of the Twilio node, I'd start with \"I'm \" as a static string.\n * Then, to get the dynamic part, I'd use an expression. The JSON shows `\"=I'm {{$node[\\\"Pushcut Trigger\\\"].json[\\\"input\\\"]}}\"`. This is perfect. It uses the `$` syntax to indicate an expression. `node[\"Pushcut Trigger\"]` references the data output by our first node. `.json` accesses the main JSON data from that node's output, and `[\"input\"]` specifically targets the 'input' field, which is where Pushcut typically sends any custom text or data provided when the action is triggered. So, whatever custom text the Pushcut action sends will be dynamically inserted here.\n* Finally, just like the Pushcut node, the Twilio node needs credentials. It would require my Twilio API credentials, which typically include an Account SID and an Auth Token, to authenticate with the Twilio service and send messages on my behalf.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow starts with the Pushcut trigger, which, upon receiving the \"Leaving Home\" action, passes its input data to the Twilio node. The Twilio node then uses that input to construct and send the dynamic SMS message. This flow aligns perfectly with the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a POST webhook, then connects to a Netlify node to create a new resource, mapping its title from the incoming webhook's `body.data.title` field.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"0d36a8db-0177-4501-9f7a-e46b6829d07a\", \"options\": {}, \"httpMethod\": \"POST\"}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"siteId\": \"5e15e032-9345-41b8-a98f-509e545f061c\", \"operation\": \"create\", \"additionalFields\": {\"title\": \"={{$json[\\\"body\\\"][\\\"data\\\"][\\\"title\\\"]}}\"}}, \"name\": \"Netlify\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.netlify\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Netlify\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this n8n workflow.

The prompt clearly states it \"starts with a POST webhook.\" So, that's undeniably our initial node. I'd go for the `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node. It's purpose-built for receiving incoming HTTP requests, which is exactly what a webhook is. Looking at the JSON, it's typeVersion 1, which is the standard and widely used version for this node. It's robust for this kind of trigger.\n\nWhen configuring this Webhook node, I'd make sure it's set up to listen for `POST` requests, as specified. The JSON confirms this with `httpMethod: \"POST\"`. The `path` for the webhook, like `0d36a8db-0177-4501-9f7a-e46b6829d07a` here, is usually a unique identifier that n8n generates or that can be customized. This path, combined with the n8n instance URL, forms the complete URL where the webhook will listen. There aren't many other parameters needed for a basic POST webhook trigger, so the `options` are empty, which is fine for this scenario. This node will effectively be our entry point, sitting there, waiting for data to be sent to it before anything else in the workflow happens.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt says, \"then connects to a Netlify node to create a new resource.\" This immediately tells me our second node needs to be a Netlify node. So, I'd bring in the `n8n-nodes-base.netlify` node. It's designed to interact with the Netlify API, allowing us to perform various operations like creating resources, deploying sites, or managing content. Again, the JSON shows typeVersion 1, which is the current standard.\n\nThe connection between these two nodes is straightforward: the output of the Webhook node will feed directly into the Netlify node. This means whatever data the Webhook receives will be available to the Netlify node for its operations.\n\nLet's configure this Netlify node. The goal is to \"create a new resource.\" This translates directly to the `operation` parameter, which should be set to \"create\". We see this in the JSON. For the Netlify node to know *where* to create the resource, it needs a `siteId`. This would be a specific identifier for the Netlify site we're targeting, something like `5e15e032-9345-41b8-a98f-509e545f061c` as seen in the JSON. This would be configured by selecting the specific Netlify site from a dropdown or by entering its ID.\n\nThen comes the crucial part: \"mapping its title from the incoming webhook's `body.data.title` field.\" This tells me we need to extract a specific piece of data from the webhook's payload and use it as the `title` for the new Netlify resource. In n8n, this is typically done using expressions. I'd look into the `additionalFields` section of the Netlify node's configuration. Here, we'd add a field for `title`.\n\nFor its value, we need to reference the data from the previous node. The incoming webhook data typically lives in the `$json` variable, and specifically, the prompt mentioned `body.data.title`. So, the expression for the title field would be `={{$json[\"body\"][\"data\"][\"title\"]}}`. This expression tells n8n to look at the overall JSON data it received, then specifically into the `body` property, then into `data`, and finally extract the `title` field from there. It's a precise way to pull just the piece of information we need.\n\nFinally, for the Netlify node to actually interact with Netlify, it needs authentication. This is handled by `credentials`. The JSON indicates `netlifyApi: \"Netlify account\"`, meaning a pre-configured Netlify API key or OAuth connection would be selected here, allowing n8n to securely connect to the user's Netlify account. Without this, the node wouldn't be able to perform any operations.\n\nAnd that's it. The Webhook waits for a POST request, captures its body, and then the Netlify node takes that captured data, specifically the title, and uses it to create a new resource on a designated Netlify site." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

This sounds like a fairly straightforward data manipulation task.\n\n**First Node: The Trigger**\n\nAlright, the very first thing the user specified is that the workflow needs to \"start with a manual trigger.\" That's easy enough. In n8n, the node type for that is `manualTrigger`. So, I'll begin by adding a `manualTrigger` node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Why this node?** This is the go-to node for starting a workflow simply by clicking a button in the editor or through an API call specifically designed to trigger it manually. It doesn't require any external events, just a direct command to run. Its purpose is purely to initiate the workflow execution, so its parameters are minimal, just defining its default name and position.\n\n**Second Node: Adding the First Field**\n\nNext, the prompt says, \"It should then use a Set node to add a 'message' field with the value 'hello there'\". This is a classic case for a `Set` node. The `Set` node is perfect for creating new fields or modifying existing ones on the incoming data.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `3.4` (It's good to note the version, as features or parameter structures might occasionally change between versions, though for a simple `Set` operation, it's usually quite stable.)\n* **Why this node?** The `Set` node is ideal here because its primary function is to manipulate the JSON data that flows through the workflow. It allows me to define new key-value pairs or overwrite existing ones.\n* **Configuration:** Inside the `Set` node's parameters, specifically under `assignments`, I'll need to create a new assignment.\n * The `name` of the field will be `message`.\n * The `value` will be `hello there`.\n * The `type` will be `string`, as it's a simple text value.\n* **Connection:** This `Set` node will naturally connect from the `manualTrigger` node's `main` output to its `main` input. The `manualTrigger` doesn't output any specific data itself, just an empty item to kick things off, which the `Set` node will then begin to populate.\n\n**Third Node: Dynamically Adding the Second Field**\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies \"a second Set node to add a 'test' field whose value is dynamically derived from the 'message' field of the preceding node.\" This also calls for a `Set` node, but with a dynamic expression for the value.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `3.4` (Again, matching the version from the previous `Set` node for consistency.)\n* **Why this node?** Another `Set` node is necessary because we're adding *another* distinct field (`test`). While it might be tempting to try to do both in a single `Set` node, the user explicitly asked for \"a second Set node,\" so I'll follow that directive. Besides, separating concerns can sometimes make a workflow clearer.\n* **Configuration:** Similar to the previous `Set` node, I'll go into its `assignments` parameters.\n * The `name` of this new field will be `test`.\n * The `type` will also be `string`, as the value it pulls will be a string.\n * Now, for the `value`, this is where the dynamic part comes in. The value needs to be derived from the `message` field created by the *previous* node. I'll use an n8n expression for this. The expression `={{ $json.message }}` will correctly reference the `message` field from the data that arrives at this node. The `$json` object represents the data item currently being processed, and `.message` accesses the field on that object.\n* **Connection:** This second `Set` node will connect from the *first* `Set` node's `main` output to its `main` input. This ensures that the data item containing the newly added `message` field flows into this node, making `$json.message` available for the dynamic expression. This sequential connection is crucial for the dynamic derivation to work as intended.\n\nThat completes the workflow as per the requirements. Each node has a specific role, and the connections ensure the data flows correctly, allowing the dynamic value to be derived from a preceding step." } { "prompt": "Manually trigger a workflow to download a Google Drive file by its ID using a service account, then save the downloaded binary data as `\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileId\": \"1dJEBaECGmua09YP7W6WCBu66icIq32yRadQpk\", \"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"download\"}, \"name\": \"Google Drive\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDrive\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Google Drive\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Drive\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think through building this workflow step by step, as if we're putting it together from scratch.\n\nFirst, I need to understand what needs to initiate this whole process. The user prompt explicitly states \"Manually trigger a workflow\". So, the very first thing we need is a node that allows for an immediate, user-initiated start.\n\nFor that, I'd choose the `manualTrigger` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and currently, it's at `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to start a workflow when someone clicks the 'Execute Workflow' button in the n8n UI. It doesn't require any complex configuration; it simply acts as the entry point.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the core task is to \"download a Google Drive file by its ID using a service account\". This clearly points to needing a node that can interact with Google Drive.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `manualTrigger` node's 'main' output to the input of a new node. This new node would be a `googleDrive` node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.googleDrive`, and again, we'll use `typeVersion: 1`. This node is designed for all kinds of Google Drive operations.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Google Drive node?\nThe prompt says \"download a Google Drive file\". So, within the Google Drive node's parameters, I'd set the `operation` to \"download\".\nThen, it specifies \"by its ID\". This means I need to provide a specific file identifier. The `fileId` parameter in the Google Drive node is exactly where that unique identifier for the file would be entered. I'd input the specific file ID there.\nCrucially, the prompt also mentions \"using a service account\". This tells me how the Google Drive node should authenticate. Instead of a regular user account, I'd configure it to use a pre-existing service account credential. In n8n, you'd typically select this under the 'Credentials' section, linking to a Google API credential that's been set up as a service account. This allows the workflow to run without needing a user to constantly re-authenticate.\n\nOkay, so we've triggered the workflow and downloaded the file. What's next? The prompt states, \"then save the downloaded binary data as `\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf`.\" This means the output of the Google Drive node (which will be the binary data of the downloaded file) needs to be written to a file system.\n\nFor this, I'd add another node, and this time, I'd choose `writeBinaryFile`. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile`, also `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed to take binary data from a previous node and save it to a file on the n8n host system or a mounted volume.\n\nI'd connect the 'main' output of the `Google Drive` node directly to the 'main' input of the `Write Binary File` node. This is a very important connection because it ensures that the actual binary content downloaded by the Google Drive node is passed seamlessly to the `writeBinaryFile` node.\n\nFinally, for the `Write Binary File` node's configuration, the prompt specifies the exact output path and filename: `\/data\/downloaded_file.pdf`. So, I would set the `fileName` parameter of this node to precisely that path, ensuring the downloaded data is saved correctly with the desired name and location.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow starts manually, downloads the specified file using the service account, and then saves the resulting binary data to the specified location. The connections ensure the data flows correctly from one step to the next." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger node, which then connects to a \"Set\" node, followed by another \"Set\" node named \"Set1\"; ensure the workflow is initially inactive.", "json": "{\"name\": \"ff739753-9d6e-46a7-94d3-25bd03dd4973\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this workflow from scratch, thinking through each piece as we build it.\n\nFirst off, the prompt specifies that the workflow needs to be \"initially inactive.\" This is an important overall setting for the workflow itself, not a specific node. So, right from the get-go, I'll ensure the workflow's global `active` setting is set to `false`. This means that when the workflow is imported or created, it won't automatically start running; it'll wait for manual activation.\n\nNow, let's move on to the nodes.\n\nThe prompt states the workflow \"starts with a manual trigger node.\" For n8n, the most straightforward way to achieve a manual start is by using the `Manual Trigger` node. I'll add one. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and I see its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is ideal because it doesn't fire on a schedule or an external event; it simply waits for a user to click the \"Execute Workflow\" button. Its `parameters` are empty, which makes sense as it just needs to exist to be triggered. I'll give it the descriptive name \"On clicking 'execute'\", as indicated in the provided structure, which clearly communicates its purpose.\n\nNext, the prompt says this manual trigger \"then connects to a 'Set' node.\" A `Set` node is perfect for manipulating data, whether it's adding new fields, modifying existing ones, or removing them. Even if it's not setting anything specific at the moment, it serves as a common intermediary for data transformation. So, I'll add a `Set` node. This node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. Looking at its `parameters`, I see `{\"options\": {}}`, meaning no specific data values are being set or altered at this point; it acts as a simple pass-through. I'll name this node \"Set\" as requested. Now, I need to connect it. The output of the `manualTrigger` node (\"On clicking 'execute'\") should flow into the input of this new \"Set\" node. I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of \"On clicking 'execute'\" to the `main` input of \"Set\". This ensures that when the manual trigger runs, any data (even an empty item) it generates is passed directly to our first \"Set\" node for potential processing.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies this \"Set\" node is \"followed by another 'Set' node named 'Set1'.\" This implies another data manipulation step. I'll add another `Set` node, again of `type` `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion` `1`. Similar to the previous \"Set\" node, its `parameters` are `{\"options\": {}}`, indicating it's not doing any specific data operations right now, but it's ready to be configured later. The crucial part here is its name: \"Set1\". I'll connect the `main` output of the first \"Set\" node to the `main` input of this new \"Set1\" node. This creates a clear sequential flow: trigger first, then data potentially handled by \"Set,\" and then passed along for further processing by \"Set1.\" The data flows directly from one `Set` node to the next." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'My workflow' that runs every minute and makes an HTTP request to 'https:\/\/n8n-render-lamachine-xlsi.onrender.com\/healthz'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{\"field\": \"minutes\", \"minutesInterval\": 1}]}}, \"name\": \"Schedule Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/n8n-render-lamachine-xlsi.onrender.com\/healthz\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 4.2, \"position\": [220, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Schedule Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break this down as if I'm building this n8n workflow from scratch, thinking through each decision.\n\nFirst off, looking at the prompt: \"Create an n8n workflow named 'My workflow' that runs every minute and makes an HTTP request to 'https:\/\/n8n-render-lamachine-xlsi.onrender.com\/healthz'.\"\n\nThe very first thing I'd do is give the workflow a name, as requested. So, I'd set `name: \"My workflow\"` right at the top level of the workflow definition. That's a simple, foundational step.\n\nNow, I need to figure out how to make this workflow *start*. The prompt says it \"runs every minute\". That immediately tells me I need a trigger node that can operate on a time-based schedule.\n\nSo, my first node would definitely be a **Schedule Trigger** node. This node type, `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` (with `typeVersion: 1.2` as seen in the JSON), is perfectly suited for this. It's designed to initiate a workflow at specified intervals or times. It's the most straightforward and intended way to handle recurring executions.\n\nTo configure this Schedule Trigger to run \"every minute\", I'd look at its `parameters`. The JSON shows `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{\"field\": \"minutes\", \"minutesInterval\": 1}]}}`. This is exactly what I'd configure. The `rule` object defines the schedule, and setting `field` to \"minutes\" and `minutesInterval` to `1` means it will fire precisely every 60 seconds. It's simple, direct, and meets the requirement.\n\nOkay, so I have the workflow starting every minute. What's next? The prompt states it needs to \"make an HTTP request\". This is pretty explicit.\n\nSo, the next logical step is to add an **HTTP Request** node. This node type, `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` (with `typeVersion: 4.2`), is the standard way to interact with web services and make API calls in n8n. It's versatile enough for GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc., but for a simple health check, a GET request is usually sufficient, and that's the default behavior.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The Schedule Trigger is the initiator, and the HTTP Request is the action that follows. So, I'd draw a connection from the \"main\" output of the Schedule Trigger to the \"main\" input of the HTTP Request node. The JSON confirms this in the `connections` section: `{\"Schedule Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This ensures that every time the schedule triggers, the workflow execution flows directly into the HTTP Request node.\n\nFinally, I need to configure the HTTP Request node with the specific URL. The prompt gives us `'https:\/\/n8n-render-lamachine-xlsi.onrender.com\/healthz'`. So, within the `parameters` of the HTTP Request node, I'd set the `url` field to this exact string. The JSON shows `{\"url\": \"https:\/\/n8n-render-lamachine-xlsi.onrender.com\/healthz\", \"options\": {}}`. The `options` object being empty indicates that for this particular request, I don't need to specify any complex headers, authentication, or a request body, which is typical for a simple health check endpoint. It just needs to hit that URL.\n\nAnd that's it. The Schedule Trigger runs every minute, passes control to the HTTP Request node, which then pings the specified URL. It directly fulfills all the requirements of the prompt with minimal, efficient nodes." } { "prompt": "Generate an N8n workflow that reads a JSON file from `\/username\/users_spreadsheet.json`, passes its binary data using a 'Move Binary Data' node, and then appends it to a Google Sheet.

This tells me I'll need at least three main stages: reading the file, ensuring the binary data is correctly carried forward, and finally, writing to Google Sheets.\n\nLet's start with the very beginning: getting the data. The prompt clearly states that we need to read a JSON file from a specific path and then pass its *binary data*. This immediately brings to mind nodes that deal with file system operations and binary content.\n\nSo, the first node I'd reach for is the **Read Binary File** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile` and I'd use `typeVersion: 1`. Why this one over a generic \"Read File\" node? Because the prompt specifically mentions \"binary data.\" While a `readFile` node can read content, `readBinaryFile` is designed to explicitly capture the file's raw binary representation, which seems crucial given the subsequent step involving a 'Move Binary Data' node. If the prompt had just said \"read the JSON content and then append it,\" I might consider a `readFile` followed by a JSON parsing node. But the binary emphasis dictates this choice.\n\nFor its configuration, the prompt gives us the exact file path: `\/username\/users_spreadsheet.json`. So, I'll set the `filePath` parameter of this `read json file` node to `\/username\/users_spreadsheet.json`. This tells n8n exactly which file to access on the system where the workflow is executing.\n\nNext, the prompt explicitly instructs us to \"pass its binary data using a 'Move Binary Data' node.\" This node is often used as a good practice when you're dealing with binary files across different operations, especially if there's a risk of the binary data being lost or improperly handled by intermediate nodes. It essentially ensures that the binary data attribute, which contains the actual file content, is correctly associated with the n8n item as it moves along the workflow.\n\nSo, the second node will be **Move Binary Data** (`n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData`, `typeVersion: 1`). I'll connect the `read json file` node's main output to the `move binary data 2` node's main input. This ensures the binary data obtained from the file reading step is directly fed into the `move binary data` node. In terms of configuration for this `move binary data` node, the JSON shows empty options (`\"options\": {}`). This is perfectly fine; often, this node just needs to perform its default action of moving the binary data without any special transformations.\n\nFinally, the goal is to append this data to a Google Sheet. For this, the **Google Sheets** node is the obvious choice. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets`, and I'll use `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, let's configure this `Google Sheets1` node according to the prompt's specific requirements.\nThe prompt says to \"append it to a Google Sheet.\" This directly translates to setting the `operation` parameter of the Google Sheets node to `\"append\"`.\n\nThen, it provides specific targeting details:\n* `sheet ID 'qwertz'`: So, I'll set the `sheetId` parameter to `\"qwertz\"`. This identifies the exact Google Sheet we're targeting.\n* `range 'A:C'`: The `range` parameter will be set to `\"A:C\"`. This specifies where within the sheet the data should be appended.\n* `use OAuth2 authentication with credential 'google_sheets_oauth'`: This means the `authentication` parameter should be set to `\"oAuth2\"`. For the actual credential, I would select a previously configured OAuth2 credential for Google Sheets. This would be a saved credential in n8n, typically named something like 'google_sheets_oauth', allowing the workflow to securely authenticate with Google APIs without embedding sensitive tokens directly in the workflow itself.\n* `have 'usePathForKeyRow' enabled`: This is an advanced option within the Google Sheets node. I'll navigate to the \"options\" object and set `usePathForKeyRow` to `true`. This setting is often useful when the incoming data has a specific structure (like JSON) and you want to ensure a particular path within that structure is used as a key for identifying or processing rows in the sheet. Since we're feeding a JSON file (albeit as binary), this might influence how the Google Sheets node interprets and structures the incoming data for appending.\n\nThe final connection will be from the `move binary data 2` node's main output to the `Google Sheets1` node's main input. This completes the data flow: the binary file content is read, passed through cleanly, and then consumed by the Google Sheets node for appending. This setup fully addresses all the requirements specified in the user prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Sub-node errors:model'.

It also specifies a particular error handling for the LLM Chain.\n\nFirst things first, I'll set the workflow's name. That's a foundational step. So, the workflow will be called \"Sub-node errors:model\". This helps with organization later on.\n\nNow, every workflow needs a starting point. The prompt specifies a manual trigger. This is perfect for testing and initiating the workflow whenever I need to, rather than on a schedule or external event. So, I'll drag over a **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the typeVersion is `1`. This node is really straightforward; it doesn't typically require any specific parameters, it just waits for a user to click \"Test workflow\" or manually execute it. I'll place it right at the beginning, say at coordinates [0, 0], which is usually the top-left corner of the canvas. I'll keep its default name, \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", as it's perfectly descriptive.\n\nNext up, the core logic: a \"Basic LLM Chain\" node. This sounds like it's where the actual language model interaction will happen. It's a `Basic LLM Chain` node, type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chainLlm`, and its typeVersion is `1.5`. I'll place it to the right of the trigger, maybe around [200, 0], to maintain a left-to-right flow. This node is where I'll define what I want the LLM to do. The prompt specifies a prompt of \"Hey\". So, within its parameters, I'll set `promptType` to `define` because I'm providing a direct text prompt, and the `text` field will be set to \"Hey\".\n\nA critical detail for this \"Basic LLM Chain\" node is its error handling. The prompt explicitly says `on error: 'continueErrorOutput'`. This is important. It means if something goes wrong within this LLM chain, the workflow shouldn't just stop. Instead, it should try to continue, potentially sending an error output down the line. This is really useful for robust workflows where you want to handle failures gracefully or implement fallback mechanisms. So, I'll make sure to set the `onError` parameter to `continueErrorOutput`.\n\nNow, for the \"Basic LLM Chain\" to actually *do* something, it needs an underlying language model. The prompt specifies an \"OpenAI Chat Model\". This is where I'll connect the actual AI provider. This node is of type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatOpenAi` and its typeVersion is `1`. I'll place this node somewhere convenient, perhaps below the \"Basic LLM Chain\" at [280, 220], as it's not directly in the main data flow but rather acts as a *sub-node* or a *service* that the \"Basic LLM Chain\" will utilize.\n\nFor the \"OpenAI Chat Model\" node, the prompt specifies a particular model: `=gpt-4o-mini123`. This is crucial. I'll enter `gpt-4o-mini123` into the model field. The leading `=` likely indicates it's an expression or a fixed value. There aren't any other specific options mentioned, so I'll leave the `options` parameter as an empty object. Of course, this node also requires credentials to connect to OpenAI's API. I'd typically select an existing OpenAI API credential here, which would be represented generically by an ID and name, something like \"OpenAi account\". I wouldn't include any actual API keys or sensitive values, just ensuring that the credential slot is configured.\n\nFinally, the connections. This is where the flow comes alive.\n1. The **Manual Trigger** (\"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\") needs to kick off the main process. So, I'll draw a `main` connection from its output to the input of the **Basic LLM Chain** node. This means when the trigger fires, it passes its execution context to the LLM chain, telling it to run.\n2. The **OpenAI Chat Model** isn't connected via a regular `main` flow. Instead, it provides the actual language model capabilities *to* the \"Basic LLM Chain\". So, I'll connect the `ai_languageModel` output of the \"OpenAI Chat Model\" node to the `ai_languageModel` input of the \"Basic LLM Chain\" node. This tells the LLM Chain, \"Hey, when you need an AI model, use *this* OpenAI Chat Model configured with `gpt-4o-mini123`.\" This is a common pattern in n8n for nodes that provide services to other nodes, rather than simply passing data through a main flow.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow now has its trigger, the main LLM logic with specific error handling, and the concrete OpenAI model it needs to function, all properly connected." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers a GitLab node to retrieve the 'trial' repository details for the 'shaligramshraddha' owner.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [440, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"owner\": \"shaligramshraddha\", \"resource\": \"repository\", \"operation\": \"get\", \"repository\": \"trial\"}, \"name\": \"Gitlab\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gitlab\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [780, 320]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gitlab\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so the user wants to create an n8n workflow that starts manually and then uses a GitLab node to fetch specific repository details. This sounds like a fairly straightforward two-node workflow, which is great for illustrating the basics.\n\nFirst things first, I always like to figure out the starting point. The prompt explicitly says \"manually triggers,\" so that's where I'd begin.\n\nI'd search for a \"manual trigger\" node in n8n. The most appropriate one for this is the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. This is perfect because it gives the user direct control to initiate the workflow whenever they want, just by clicking a button in the n8n UI. Looking at the JSON, its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the standard version I'd expect for such a fundamental node. I'd place it somewhere visible, say at `[440, 320]`, as indicated in the JSON. For a manual trigger, there aren't typically any specific parameters to configure beyond its basic existence, so having `parameters: {}` makes complete sense. It's just a simple \"start\" button.\n\nNext, the prompt clearly states that after the manual trigger, we need a \"GitLab node to retrieve the 'trial' repository details for the 'shaligramshraddha' owner.\" So, a GitLab node is obviously the next logical step.\n\nI'd drag a `Gitlab` node onto the canvas. Its `type` would be `n8n-nodes-base.gitlab`, and again, the `typeVersion: 1` is what I'd expect. I'd position it to the right of the trigger, maybe at `[780, 320]`, to maintain a clean left-to-right flow.\n\nNow, for configuring this GitLab node, the details from the prompt are absolutely critical.\n* The prompt wants to \"retrieve the 'trial' repository details.\" This tells me a few things about the GitLab node's parameters:\n * The `resource` should be set to `repository`. We're dealing with repository-level information, not users, issues, or projects in general.\n * The `operation` should be `get`. To \"retrieve details\" means we want to fetch or \"get\" specific information about that resource.\n * The prompt explicitly names the repository as `'trial'`, so the `repository` parameter would be set to `\"trial\"`.\n * And finally, the owner is specified as `'shaligramshraddha'`, so the `owner` parameter needs to be set to `\"shaligramshraddha\"`.\nThese parameter settings (`owner: \"shaligramshraddha\"`, `resource: \"repository\"`, `operation: \"get\"`, `repository: \"trial\"`) perfectly map the user's requirements into the node's configuration.\n\nOf course, for the GitLab node to actually communicate with the GitLab API, it needs authentication. The JSON indicates `credentials: {\"gitlabApi\": \"new\"}`. This means a GitLab API credential would need to be configured. This credential would typically involve providing an API token or a personal access token with the necessary permissions to read repository information. Without that, the node wouldn't be able to authenticate with GitLab.\n\nFinally, the connection. The `On clicking 'execute'` (our manual trigger) needs to connect to the `Gitlab` node. The connection `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gitlab\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}` confirms this. This is a straightforward `main` output to `main` input connection. When the manual trigger is activated, it simply passes a basic execution item to the GitLab node, telling it to run its configured operation. There's no complex data mapping needed here; the GitLab node's operation is self-contained based on its parameters." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that starts with a manual trigger providing user profile data.

This is the standard way to initiate a workflow manually, often used for testing or when you want to explicitly kick off a process. It has a `typeVersion` of 1. When I'm building, I'd drag this node onto the canvas first. Its parameters are empty right now, which means it'll just output a single empty item by default when triggered. However, I see in the `pinData` section of the JSON that it's set up to provide a list of user profile data, which is exactly what the prompt asked for. So, when this workflow is tested, it will simulate receiving that rich user profile JSON.\n\nNext, the prompt specifies \"include an 'Edit Fields' (Set) node before the IF for data preparation.\" Alright, so after my manual trigger, I need a `set` node. I'll connect the main output of the `manualTrigger` node to the main input of this new `set` node. Looking at the JSON, this node is named \"Edit Fields\" and has a `typeVersion` of 3.2. A `set` node is commonly used for preparing data, whether that means adding new fields, renaming existing ones, or removing unnecessary data. In this specific JSON, the parameters for the \"Edit Fields\" node are `\"options\": {}`, which implies that no specific field modifications are configured *at this moment*. This effectively makes it a passthrough node in this configuration, but it fulfills the requirement for a \"data preparation\" step. Perhaps later, if the workflow needs to transform the data before the conditional logic, this is where those transformations would happen. For now, it just ensures the data flows through a dedicated preparation step as requested.\n\nNow comes the core logic: \"Add an IF node to filter the data: if the `profile.name` contains \"an\", send it to a 'True' branch, otherwise to a 'False' branch.\" So, the next node in the sequence must be an `IF` node. I'll connect the main output of the \"Edit Fields\" node to the main input of the `IF` node. The JSON shows this node is named \"IF\" and has a `typeVersion` of 1. An `IF` node is perfect for creating conditional branches in a workflow. When I configure it, I need to define the condition. The prompt states \"if the `profile.name` contains \"an\"\". Looking at the JSON's parameters for the `IF` node, it has `\"conditions\": {\"string\": [{\"value1\": \"={{ $json.profile.name }}\", \"operation\": \"contains\", \"value2\": \"an\"}]}`. This matches perfectly. I'm telling it to look at the `profile.name` field from the incoming JSON data using the expression `{{ $json.profile.name }}`. The `operation` is set to \"contains,\" and the `value2` is \"an.\" This setup will correctly evaluate each incoming item: if the value of `profile.name` contains the substring \"an,\" the item will go down the \"True\" branch; otherwise, it will go down the \"False\" branch.\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"send it to a 'True' branch, otherwise to a 'False' branch.\" After the `IF` node, n8n automatically provides two output branches: one for true conditions and one for false. To complete the workflow as described, I'll need two more nodes, one for each branch. The JSON confirms this by showing two more `set` nodes. The first is named \"True\" and is connected from the \"IF\" node's true output (main index 0). The second is named \"False\" and is connected from the \"IF\" node's false output (main index 1). Both are `set` nodes with `typeVersion` 3.2 and empty parameters, just like the \"Edit Fields\" node. These `set` nodes act as simple placeholders for the respective branches. In a real workflow, these branches would likely contain further processing steps, like sending an email, updating a database, or calling another API, depending on whether the condition was met or not. For example, if a user's name contains \"an,\" maybe they get a specific welcome email, and if not, they go to a different onboarding flow. But for now, these `set` nodes clearly define and represent the two distinct paths the data can take." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers every 2 hours.

The core requirement is to have something run on a schedule, define some variables, and then process one of those variables.\n\nFirst things first, we need a trigger. The prompt specifies \"triggers every 2 hours.\" For any time-based schedule in n8n, the go-to node is an Interval node.\n\nSo, I'd start by dragging out an **Interval** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.interval`, typeVersion: 1). This is perfect because it allows me to define a specific time unit and an interval. Looking at the JSON, its name is \"2 hours Interval\", which makes sense. I'd configure its parameters to set the `unit` to \"hours\" and the `interval` to `2`. This ensures the workflow starts exactly when needed. I'd notice the `notes` field says \"It is the 4 hours interval...\", which is a bit odd given the `interval: 2` setting, but I'll stick to the actual configuration which prioritizes the functional parameter of `2` hours. This node will kick off the entire process reliably every two hours.\n\nNext up, the prompt mentions using a Function node to define two variables: `myVariable` with value `1` and `myVariable2` with value `\"this is exciting\"`. The **Interval** node doesn't produce data in a way that allows us to directly set custom variables within its output; it just triggers. So, a Function or FunctionItem node is precisely what's needed to create custom data.\n\nI'll connect the \"main\" output of my \"2 hours Interval\" node to the input of a new **FunctionItem** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.functionItem`, typeVersion: 1). I chose `FunctionItem` over `Function` because `FunctionItem` operates on individual items that pass through it, which is generally more efficient and the standard practice when you're just transforming or adding properties to incoming data. In this case, the `Interval` node sends a single item, so `FunctionItem` is perfectly suitable.\n\nFor this \"FunctionItem\" node, which the JSON names \"FunctionItem\", I need to add the code to define those variables. Inside its `functionCode` parameter, I'd write:\n```javascript\nitem.myVariable = 1;\nitem.myVariable2 = \"this is exciting\";\nreturn item;\n```\nThis code block is concise and directly does what's requested: it adds `myVariable` and `myVariable2` as properties to the incoming `item` object, and then returns the modified `item`. The data flowing out of this node will now have these two new properties attached.\n\nFinally, the prompt states: \"then connect to a Set node that extracts `myVariable2` from the Function node's output and renames it to `data`, keeping only this value.\" This is a clear indicator for a **Set** node.\n\nSo, I'll connect the \"main\" output of the \"FunctionItem\" node to the input of a new **Set** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.set`, typeVersion: 1). The Set node is excellent for transforming data, adding new fields, modifying existing ones, or, crucially for this task, selecting specific fields and renaming them while discarding others.\n\nFor the configuration of this \"Set\" node, its parameters would be crucial.\n1. I need to extract `myVariable2`. So, I'd add a new value field.\n2. The prompt says to rename it to `data`. So, the `name` for this new field will be \"data\".\n3. The value for \"data\" needs to come from `myVariable2` from the previous \"FunctionItem\" node. I'd use an expression for this: `={{$node[\"FunctionItem\"].data[\"myVariable2\"]}}`. This dynamically pulls the `myVariable2` property from the item output by the \"FunctionItem\" node.\n4. Most importantly, the prompt says \"keeping only this value.\" This means I need to enable the `keepOnlySet` option in the Set node's parameters, setting it to `true`. This instructs the Set node to discard all other properties that came from the \"FunctionItem\" node (like `myVariable` and any default properties from the Interval trigger) and only output the newly set `data` property.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow now accurately reflects all the requirements: it triggers on schedule, creates the specified variables, and then precisely extracts and renames one of them, ensuring only that specific data point continues in the workflow." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers daily at 8 PM, fetches the NASA Picture of the Day (APOD), and then sends this image as a photo to a Telegram chat, using the APOD's URL as the file and its title as the caption.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 20}]}}, \"name\": \"Cron\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cron\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"download\": false, \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"NASA\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.nasa\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"file\": \"={{$node[\\\"NASA\\\"].json[\\\"url\\\"]}}\", \"chatId\": \"-485365454\", \"operation\": \"sendPhoto\", \"additionalFields\": {\"caption\": \"={{$node[\\\"NASA\\\"].json[\\\"title\\\"]}}\"}}, \"name\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegram\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [850, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Cron\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"NASA\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"NASA\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow. The user wants something that triggers daily, fetches an image from NASA, and then sends it to Telegram.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states \"triggers daily at 8 PM.\" This immediately makes me think of a time-based trigger. Looking at the available nodes in n8n, the **Cron** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.cron`, typeVersion: 1) is the perfect candidate for this. It's designed specifically for scheduled executions. I'd drag that onto the canvas as my first node.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Cron node to trigger daily at 8 PM? I'd go into its parameters. I see in the JSON that `triggerTimes` has an `item` with `hour: 20`. That's exactly right \u2013 20:00 is 8 PM. So, this Cron node is set to fire off once every day at 8 PM, which perfectly matches the user's requirement.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, what's the next step? The prompt says it needs to \"fetch the NASA Picture of the Day (APOD).\" This implies interacting with the NASA API. n8n has a dedicated node for NASA, which is super convenient. So, I'd connect my Cron node to a **NASA** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.nasa`, typeVersion: 1). This connection would be a standard `main` connection, flowing from the Cron node's output to the NASA node's input. The Cron node simply signals \"go,\" and the NASA node then executes.\n\nNow, let's configure this NASA node. I see `download: false` is set in its parameters. This is important. If `download` were true, it would download the actual image file into the workflow, which might be useful in some scenarios, but for sending to Telegram, often a direct URL is preferred for `sendPhoto` operations. The prompt explicitly says \"using the APOD's URL as the file,\" so `download: false` is ideal here because it means the node will primarily output the image's URL (and other metadata like the title), rather than the binary data itself. It also has `additionalFields: {}`, meaning no extra specific fields are being requested from the API, just the default APOD information. Of course, this node would require some form of API key or authentication, which would be handled in the `credentials` section, generically referred to as \"NASA\" here.\n\nAfter successfully fetching the APOD data from NASA, the final step is to \"send this image as a photo to a Telegram chat, using the APOD's URL as the file and its title as the caption.\" This clearly points to the **Telegram** node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.telegram`, typeVersion: 1). I'd connect the NASA node's output to the Telegram node's input, again via a `main` connection, so the data from NASA is passed along.\n\nConfiguring the Telegram node is critical for sending the image correctly.\nFirst, the `operation` is set to `sendPhoto`, which is exactly what the prompt asks for. This tells the Telegram API to expect an image.\nNext, the `chatId` is specified. This would be the unique identifier for the Telegram chat or channel where the photo should be sent. I'd just input the specific chat ID here.\nNow, for the image itself. The prompt says \"using the APOD's URL as the file.\" Looking at the JSON, the `file` parameter is set to `={{$node[\"NASA\"].json[\"url\"]}}`. This is a dynamic expression in n8n. It's saying, \"take the output from the 'NASA' node, specifically its JSON data, and from that JSON, get the value of the 'url' field.\" This is precisely how we pass the image URL obtained from the NASA API to Telegram.\nFinally, the `caption`. The prompt wants \"its title as the caption.\" In the `additionalFields` section, the `caption` parameter is set to `={{$node[\"NASA\"].json[\"title\"]}}`. Similar to the URL, this dynamically fetches the `title` field from the NASA node's output JSON. This ensures the photo is sent with its corresponding title as the caption.\nAnd, of course, like the NASA node, the Telegram node requires authentication, which would be handled through a credential, here generically named \"Telegram n8n bot.\"\n\nSo, to recap the flow: The Cron node wakes up daily at 8 PM. It triggers the NASA node, which then goes and fetches the Picture of the Day, providing its URL and title. This information is then passed to the Telegram node, which uses the URL to send the image as a photo to the specified chat and uses the title as the photo's caption. This looks like a complete and correct implementation based on the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow to receive updates for changes in a specified Trello list, utilizing a Trello Trigger node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Receive updates for changes in the specified list in Trello\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"id\": \"\"}, \"name\": \"Trello Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.trelloTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [700, 250]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get into the mindset of building this workflow from the ground up, based on the provided JSON.\n\nThe goal here is pretty clear: we need to set up a system that gets updates whenever something changes in a specific Trello list. The prompt also explicitly mentions using a \"Trello Trigger node,\" which is great because it narrows down our starting point immediately.\n\nSo, when I think about a workflow that needs to \"receive updates\" from an external service like Trello, my mind instantly goes to a *trigger* node. A trigger node is essentially the entry point of our workflow; it's what listens for an event to happen and then kicks off the entire process. If we didn't have a trigger, there would be no way for the workflow to know when a change occurred in Trello. It would just sit there idly.\n\nGiven the instructions and the JSON, the very first and only node we'll be adding is the `Trello Trigger` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.trelloTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` specified in the JSON is `1`. This node is perfectly suited for our task because it's designed to integrate directly with Trello's API to receive real-time notifications about events. It can subscribe to webhooks from Trello, meaning Trello will actively push information to our workflow whenever a relevant change happens, rather than us having to constantly ask Trello for updates (which would be polling, and less efficient for real-time updates).\n\nNow, let's think about how to configure this `Trello Trigger` node. For any node that connects to an external service, credentials are a must. Looking at the JSON, I see `credentials: {\"trelloApi\": \"\"}`. This tells me that before this workflow can actually listen to any Trello events, it needs to be authenticated with my Trello account. This would typically involve providing an API key and a user token, which allows n8n to securely connect to Trello on my behalf and set up the necessary webhooks. Without these credentials, the trigger simply won't be able to communicate with Trello.\n\nNext, I need to tell the `Trello Trigger` *what* specifically it should be listening to. The user prompt mentioned \"changes in a specified Trello list.\" When I look at the `parameters: {\"id\": \"\"}` in the JSON, this `id` field is where I would specify the unique identifier of the Trello list that I want to monitor for changes. For example, if I have a list called \"To Do\" on a specific board, I'd get its unique ID from Trello and paste it into this parameter. This ensures the trigger only fires when something relevant happens to *that particular list*, preventing the workflow from being unnecessarily triggered by changes on other boards or lists I might have in Trello. This is vital for keeping our workflow focused and efficient.\n\nOnce configured with the Trello list ID and the necessary credentials, this `Trello Trigger` node will essentially be waiting. Whenever a card is added to, moved within, or removed from that specific Trello list, or if a card's details within that list are updated, the `Trello Trigger` will detect this event. It will then output data about that specific change \u2013 for example, details about the card that changed, what type of action occurred (e.g., \"createCard,\" \"updateCard,\" \"moveCardFromList\"), and information about the user who made the change.\n\nNow, interestingly, the provided JSON shows `connections: {}`, meaning there are no subsequent nodes connected to this `Trello Trigger`. In a complete real-world scenario where someone wants to \"receive updates,\" they usually want to *do something* with those updates. For instance, send an email notification, post to Slack, update a spreadsheet, or log the event. If this were a more complex workflow, my next step would be to drag an appropriate node \u2013 say, an `Email Send` node or a `Slack` node \u2013 and connect the output of the `Trello Trigger` to its input. That way, the data about the Trello change could be passed along and used in the next action. However, based strictly on the JSON provided, the workflow's scope ends with the trigger successfully receiving and outputting the Trello change data. It accomplishes the \"receive updates\" part, but it doesn't specify any follow-up actions." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

I'll grab a **Manual Trigger** node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nWhy this node? Well, it's perfect for workflows that you want to kick off manually, perhaps for testing, or for a one-off execution. It doesn't require any external event; you just click \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n interface, and it sends an empty item down the workflow, effectively starting the process. I'll place this node first, usually on the far left of the canvas. The position `[250, 300]` looks good for a starting point. As for its parameters, a manual trigger node is usually quite simple and doesn't require any specific configuration; it just triggers.\n\nOkay, so we have our trigger. What's next? The prompt states, \"It should then use a Set node to create three string fields: 'Column 1', 'Column 2', and 'Column 3', populated with their corresponding 'This is column X data' values.\" This tells me exactly what the next step needs to be: a **Set** node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThe Set node is incredibly versatile for manipulating data within a workflow. Here, its purpose is to *add* specific fields to the data item that's coming from the Manual Trigger. Since the Manual Trigger typically sends an empty item, the Set node will enrich it with the required data. I'll connect the main output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (Manual Trigger) node to the main input of this new \"Set\" node. This ensures the data flow is sequential. I'll place it to the right of the trigger node, say at `[450, 300]`, keeping things visually organized.\n\nNow, let's configure this Set node. The prompt is very specific about the fields and their values. I need to go into its parameters and define them. Under the `values` section, specifically for `string` types, I'll add three entries:\n* Name: `Column 1`, Value: `This is column 1 data`\n* Name: `Column 2`, Value: `This is column 2 data`\n* Name: `Column 3`, Value: `This is column 3 data`\nThis setup is exactly what the JSON shows under `parameters.values.string`. The `options` sub-section is usually left empty unless I specifically need to, say, \"Keep Only Set\" values, which isn't required by this prompt, as we just want to add new data. So, the Set node will receive an item, add these three new fields with their specified string values, and then pass that enhanced item on.\n\nFinally, the prompt says to \"pass this output to an empty Coda node.\" This defines our last step. I'll add a **Coda** node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.coda`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThe Coda node is designed for interacting with Coda documents and tables. Its purpose here is to receive the data prepared by the Set node. I'll connect the main output of the \"Set\" node to the main input of the \"Coda\" node. This ensures the data with \"Column 1,\" \"Column 2,\" and \"Column 3\" is handed off to the Coda node. I'll position it to the right of the Set node, around `[650, 300]`.\n\nFor the configuration of this Coda node, the prompt asks for an \"empty Coda node.\" This means it should be present but not necessarily fully configured to perform a specific action yet. Looking at the parameters, I'll see placeholders for `docId` and `tableId`, which will remain empty strings as requested. There's also `options`, which is also empty. Importantly, there's `credentials.codaApi`, which would eventually need an actual API key to connect to Coda, but for an \"empty\" node as specified, it's just there as a placeholder awaiting configuration. This setup allows the workflow to pass data *to* the Coda node, making it ready for a subsequent configuration, perhaps to create a new row or update an existing one, once a specific Coda document and table are chosen and an operation is defined. Right now, it's just the final destination for the data in this particular flow." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow starting with a manual trigger that outputs two items: `{\"a\": 1}` and `{\"a\": 2}`.

The prompt clearly states it needs to begin with a manual trigger, and then process some specific data before making a decision and finally debugging the output.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick off this workflow manually. Looking at the requirements, a \"manual trigger\" is explicitly mentioned. This immediately tells me I'll need a `manualTrigger` node. Looking at the provided JSON, I see `{\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, ...}`. Perfect, that's exactly what I'd pick. It's the simplest way to initiate a workflow for testing or specific, non-scheduled runs. I'd drag that onto the canvas as my starting point. Its name, \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", is a good default that clearly indicates its purpose.\n\nNow, the prompt specifies that this trigger should \"output two items: `{\"a\": 1}` and `{\"a\": 2}`\". This is a crucial piece of information. For a `manualTrigger` node (typeVersion 1), I'd typically configure this by going into its settings in the n8n UI, and under the \"JSON\" or \"Data\" field, I would manually add these two JSON objects. The JSON provided has `pinData` which essentially pre-populates this, showing `[{\"a\": 1}, {\"a\": 2}]`. So, when this workflow runs, it will emit two separate items, each carrying one of these JSON objects. This is important because downstream nodes will process each item individually.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"Connect this to an If node that checks if `{{ $json.a }}` equals `3`\". So, my next logical step is to add an `If` node. I see one in the JSON: `{\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.if\", \"typeVersion\": 2.2, ...}`. An `If` node is absolutely the right choice here because its purpose is to route workflow execution based on a condition \u2013 a true path and a false path. I'll connect the `main` output of my `manualTrigger` node to the `main` input of this `If` node. This ensures the data `{\"a\": 1}` and `{\"a\": 2}` flows directly into the `If` node.\n\nNow, let's configure this `If` node. The condition is \"if `{{ $json.a }}` equals `3`\".\n* For the `leftValue`, I'd use an expression: `={{ $json.a }}`. This tells the node to look at the `a` property within the incoming JSON data for each item.\n* For the `rightValue`, it needs to be `3`.\n* The `operator` should be `equals`.\n* Since `3` is a number, the `type` for the comparison should be `number`. The JSON confirms this: `\"leftValue\": \"={{ $json.a }}\", \"rightValue\": 3, \"operator\": {\"type\": \"number\", \"operation\": \"equals\"}}`. This ensures a robust comparison, treating both sides as numbers.\n* I also see `caseSensitive: true` and `typeValidation: \"strict\"`. While `caseSensitive` might not apply directly to a number comparison, `typeValidation: \"strict\"` is good practice as it ensures that the comparison is done only if the types match, which is what we want for a numeric check.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies \"routing both its true and false outputs to a DebugHelper node.\" This implies I need a `DebugHelper` node. Looking at the JSON, I find `{\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\", \"typeVersion\": 1, ...}`. This is a perfect node for inspecting data at any point in the workflow without affecting the data or stopping execution. It's great for understanding what's flowing through, especially when you have conditional logic like an `If` node. I'd add this node onto the canvas.\n\nFor the connections from the `If` node:\n* I need to connect the `true` output of the `If` node to the `main` input of the `DebugHelper` node.\n* And critically, I also need to connect the `false` output of the `If` node to the *same* `main` input of the `DebugHelper` node. This means that regardless of whether `{{ $json.a }}` is `3` or not, the item will end up in the `DebugHelper` node for inspection.\n\nOne small detail for the `DebugHelper` is `alwaysOutputData: true`. This ensures that even if something unexpected happens or if it's placed in a branch that might not always execute, it's configured to reliably output data for debugging purposes. This is generally a good default when using it purely for inspection.\n\nSo, to summarize my thought process: Trigger first, configure its output. Then, introduce the `If` node for the conditional logic, carefully setting up the comparison. Finally, add the `DebugHelper` as an endpoint for both true and false paths, allowing me to see the results of the `If` node's processing for every item that starts the workflow. This structure directly addresses all parts of the user prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'My workflow 8' that begins with an 'n8n Form Trigger' node configured with the path `d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a`, title 'test', and a single field 'test'.

The request is pretty clear: we need a workflow named \"My workflow 8\" that begins with an 'n8n Form Trigger' and then connects to a 'Switch' node, with some specific configuration for the trigger and sample data.\n\nFirst things first, the workflow needs a name. I'll set that right away as \"My workflow 8\" to match the prompt. That's a top-level property for the whole workflow.\n\nNow, for the actual logic. The prompt states it begins with an 'n8n Form Trigger'. So, that's the very first node I'll add to our canvas.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `2`\n* **Reasoning:** This is the perfect node to start a workflow when the initiation point is a user submitting data via a web form. It essentially creates a public endpoint that displays a custom form.\n\nOnce I've dropped that node onto the canvas, I need to configure it according to the prompt.\n* The prompt specifies a `path` of `d1cba915-ca18-4425-bcfb-133205fc815a`. This `path` is crucial because it will form part of the unique URL where the form will be accessible. It helps make the form distinguishable and routable within n8n.\n* Next, the `formTitle` needs to be set to 'test'. This is what users will see as the title of the web form when they open its URL.\n* The prompt also asks for a single form field named 'test'. So, within the `formFields` parameter, I'll add a single input with `fieldLabel` set to 'test'. This means the form will present one input box for the user to type into, labeled \"test\".\n\nA very important part of the prompt for the 'n8n Form Trigger' is to include sample output data. This is incredibly useful for designing and testing the subsequent nodes without having to manually submit the form every time. n8n allows us to define `pinData` for nodes.\n* For our 'n8n Form Trigger', I'll specify two sample items: `{\"name\": \"First item\", \"code\": 1}` and `{\"name\": \"Second item\", \"code\": 2}`. These are exactly what the prompt asked for. When the workflow is being developed, these two items will be available as test data for the next nodes, simulating two separate form submissions. This helps ensure that downstream logic can handle multiple items of data correctly.\n\nOkay, the trigger node is set up. What's next? The prompt says to \"Connect this trigger node to a 'Switch' node\".\n* So, I'll drag a 'Switch' node onto the canvas.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.switch`\n* **Type Version:** `2`\n* **Reasoning:** A 'Switch' node is the go-to choice when you need to introduce conditional logic into your workflow. It allows the workflow to take different paths based on the values of incoming data. While the prompt doesn't specify any conditions for this 'Switch' node yet (its `parameters` are empty in the JSON), its presence strongly suggests that the intention is to branch the workflow later, perhaps based on the `name` or `code` value from the form trigger's output. For example, if 'code' is 1, go one way; if 'code' is 2, go another.\n\nNow I need to connect these two nodes.\n* The 'n8n Form Trigger' should connect its `main` output to the 'Switch' node's `main` input. This ensures that the data output by the form trigger (whether live submission data or our sample `pinData`) flows directly into the 'Switch' node for processing. This is a standard sequential connection, passing all data items from the trigger to the switch.\n\nThat covers all the explicit requirements. The workflow now has its starting point, its form configuration, sample data for testing, and a connection to a conditional routing node. The 'Switch' node is ready to be configured with specific conditions whenever that's needed, which would involve adding rules based on the incoming data fields like `name` or `code`." } { "prompt": "Design an N8N workflow with two schedule triggers, \"Trigger A\" and \"Trigger B\", both connecting to a \"Set\" node named \"Edit Fields\".

The prompt is quite clear: two schedule triggers feeding into a single \"Set\" node, with a specific dynamic field assignment.\n\nFirst things first, I need to establish the entry points for the workflow. The request clearly states \"two schedule triggers\". So, the logical first step is to add those.\n\nI'll start with the first trigger. I'll add a **Schedule Trigger** node. This `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` type is perfect for scenarios where a workflow needs to run automatically at predetermined intervals, rather than being initiated by an external event or manually. The `typeVersion` for this node is `1.2`. For a basic trigger like this, `typeVersion 1.2` is pretty standard and robust; I wouldn't expect significant behavioral differences compared to slightly older or newer versions unless there were very specific new features or deprecations, which isn't the case here. I'll name this first trigger \"Trigger A\" as per the instructions. Looking at the JSON, the `parameters` for its `rule` and `interval` are set to an empty object `{}`. This means it's configured for a default schedule, or perhaps the user intends to configure a specific interval (like daily, hourly) after the initial setup. For now, it simply exists as a scheduled starting point. I'll place it at `[0, -100]` on the canvas.\n\nNext, I need the second trigger, also a schedule trigger. So, I'll add another **Schedule Trigger** node, again of type `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` and `typeVersion 1.2`. I'll name this one \"Trigger B\" as requested. Similar to \"Trigger A\", its `parameters.rule.interval` is also an empty object, indicating a default or user-defined schedule. Visually, I'll place it slightly below \"Trigger A\" at `[0, 100]` to keep the layout clean and distinct.\n\nNow that the starting points are set up, both triggers need to lead somewhere. The prompt specifies \"both connecting to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields'\". A **Set** node is an excellent choice here. Its primary purpose is to manipulate data items \u2013 adding new fields, modifying existing ones, or removing them. This perfectly aligns with the name \"Edit Fields\".\n\nSo, I'll add a **Set** node. The `type` for this node is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is `3.4`. This indicates a more recent iteration of the Set node, which likely brings performance improvements or minor feature enhancements over older versions, but its core function of setting values remains consistent. I'll name it \"Edit Fields\" exactly as specified. I'll position it to the right of the triggers, perhaps around `[200, -100]`, making it visually accessible from both \"Trigger A\" and \"Trigger B\".\n\nNow for the crucial part of the \"Edit Fields\" node's configuration. The prompt instructs: \"create a string assignment named \"prevNode\" with its value dynamically set to the name of the previous node using the expression `={{ $prevNode.name }}`.\"\nTo achieve this, within the \"Edit Fields\" node's parameters, I'll navigate to the `assignments` array. I'll add a new assignment object to this array.\nFor this new assignment:\n- The `name` will be \"prevNode\".\n- The `type` will be \"string\", as explicitly requested.\n- The `value` is where the dynamic magic happens: `={{ $prevNode.name }}`. This expression is quite powerful. `$prevNode` is a built-in n8n variable that provides context about the node that immediately preceded the current node in the execution path. By appending `.name`, it retrieves the *name* of that preceding node. So, if \"Trigger A\" initiates the workflow, `prevNode` will be \"Trigger A\". If \"Trigger B\" initiates it, `prevNode` will be \"Trigger B\". This ensures the value is dynamically correct depending on which path was taken. The curly braces `{{ }}` indicate that it's an expression that needs to be evaluated.\n\nFinally, I need to connect the triggers to the \"Edit Fields\" node. The prompt states \"both connecting to\" it.\nFirst, I'll connect \"Trigger A\" to \"Edit Fields\". This will be a standard `main` output to `main` input connection. So, when \"Trigger A\" fires, its output data (which for a schedule trigger is usually an empty item or a default timestamp item) will flow directly into \"Edit Fields\". The connection will specify `node: \"Edit Fields\"`, `type: \"main\"`, and `index: 0`.\n\nThen, I'll connect \"Trigger B\" to the *same* \"Edit Fields\" node. Again, this will be a `main` output to `main` input connection. This means \"Edit Fields\" is designed to receive data from either of the two triggers. When \"Trigger B\" fires, its output will also flow into \"Edit Fields\". The connection will similarly be `node: \"Edit Fields\"`, `type: \"main\"`, and `index: 0`. n8n handles multiple incoming connections gracefully, processing data as it arrives from whichever source.\n\nThis completes the workflow as described. Two distinct entry points, both leading to a single data manipulation step that intelligently identifies its origin." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that triggers on a new Calendly event (specifically `invitee.created`).

It needs to react to an event in Calendly. So, my immediate thought is that we'll need a Calendly trigger node. That's the entry point.\n\nI'll add the `n8n-nodes-base.calendlyTrigger` node. This is the perfect type for this, as it's designed to listen for events directly from Calendly. It's `typeVersion: 1`. I'll call it \"On new event\" to clearly indicate its role. For this node to work, it needs to know what kind of events to listen for. The prompt specifically mentions `invitee.created`. So, under its parameters, I'll set the `events` property to include only `invitee.created`. This ensures our workflow only fires when a new invitee is created, not for cancellations or other event types, which is crucial for efficiency and accuracy. Of course, this node will also require Calendly credentials to authenticate with the Calendly API; that's where I'd configure an API key or similar authentication details.\n\nAlright, so now we have our trigger. When a new invitee is created in Calendly, this node will capture that information. What's the next step? We need to use that information to create or update a contact in Mautic.\n\nThis means the next node should be a Mautic integration. I'll connect the output of \"On new event\" to a new node, which will be the `n8n-nodes-base.mautic` node. This node is specifically designed to interact with Mautic's API, allowing us to manage contacts, campaigns, and so on. It's `typeVersion: 1`. I'll name it \"Create\/update contact\" because that's exactly what it's supposed to do.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Mautic node? We need to pass the invitee's email and name from the Calendly event to Mautic. This is where expressions come in handy. The data from the \"On new event\" node will be available to the \"Create\/update contact\" node. I'll need to look at the structure of the data coming out of the Calendly trigger. From the JSON, it looks like the email is available under `payload.email`. So, for the `email` parameter of the Mautic node, I'd use an expression like `={{$node[\"On new event\"].json[\"payload\"][\"email\"]}}`. This dynamically pulls the email address from the data item that triggered the workflow.\n\nSimilarly, for the invitee's name, the JSON suggests it's directly under `payload.name`. So, for the `firstName` parameter of the Mautic node, I'll use `={{$json[\"payload\"][\"name\"]}}`. This will take the name provided by Calendly and use it for the first name field in Mautic. It's important to specify `firstName` if that's the field Mautic uses for a contact's given name. The node also has `options` and `additionalFields` parameters, which are currently empty, indicating we're going with default behavior for contact creation\/update and not adding any extra custom fields at this point, which aligns with the prompt's simplicity. Just like the Calendly node, this Mautic node will also require Mautic API credentials \u2013 things like the base URL for the Mautic instance and any necessary API keys or user credentials.\n\nFinally, while not directly functional to the flow's logic, it's always good practice to include a sticky note for documentation. This `n8n-nodes-base.stickyNote` node, `typeVersion: 1`, labeled \"Note\", serves purely as a visual explanation within the workflow editor. It describes the overall purpose of the workflow and, importantly, clarifies how the `Create\/update contact` node behaves: it explains that it will create a new contact if the email doesn't exist, or update an existing one (specifically overwriting the first name) if the email is already found in Mautic. This is crucial context for anyone looking at the workflow later. It doesn't participate in the data flow, so it's just positioned off to the side.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow starts with Calendly, passes the relevant data, and then acts on it in Mautic. Simple, clear, and effective." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that starts with a manual trigger named 'On clicking execute', configured to output `start: true`.

This immediately tells me my very first node has to be something that can be manually initiated.\n\nLooking at the n8n nodes available, a \"Manual Trigger\" node is the most direct and obvious choice for this requirement. It's designed specifically for workflows that you want to start by clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n UI, or via an API call specifically to trigger it, but for a \"manual trigger,\" the UI button is the most common use case.\n\nSo, I'd bring in a node of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"`. The JSON confirms this with the node named \"On clicking 'execute'\". The `typeVersion: 1` indicates it's the standard, initial version of this trigger node, which works perfectly fine for a simple manual start. I'd give it the name \"On clicking 'execute'\" as specified in the prompt. Its `parameters` are empty, which is typical for a basic manual trigger as it doesn't usually need special configuration beyond its name to function.\n\nNext, the prompt specifies that this trigger should output `start: true`. This is a crucial piece of information. For a manual trigger, the initial data output isn't configured within the node's `parameters` like some other nodes. Instead, n8n allows you to define the initial data directly in the workflow's `pinData` section for trigger nodes. So, for my \"On clicking 'execute'\" node, I'd make sure the `pinData` entry for it includes `{\"json\": {\"start\": true}}`. This ensures that when the workflow starts, the data object `{\"start\": true}` is passed to the next node in the chain.\n\nThe prompt then says this trigger should pass its output to a \"Set\" node. A \"Set\" node is excellent for manipulating data, adding new fields, or just passing data through while potentially inspecting it. Even if it's not adding new data in this specific instance (as its `parameters` are empty in the JSON), it acts as a clear intermediary for data flow. It's a `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` node, and `typeVersion: 1` is again the standard version that will handle basic data operations.\n\nI'd name this node \"Set\", as per the JSON. To connect it, I'd draw a line from the \"main\" output of my \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the \"main\" input of this new \"Set\" node. The `connections` section of the JSON confirms this with `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This ensures the `{\"start\": true}` data that the trigger outputs is received by this first \"Set\" node.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that this \"Set\" node \"in turn connects to another 'Set' node named 'Set1'.\" So, I need one more \"Set\" node. Again, `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` with `typeVersion: 1` will be used, and I'll name it \"Set1\". Just like the previous \"Set\" node, its `parameters` are empty, meaning it's simply passing the data along or perhaps serving as a placeholder for future logic in a more complex scenario.\n\nTo complete the flow, I'd connect the \"main\" output of my first \"Set\" node to the \"main\" input of this new \"Set1\" node. The JSON's `connections` section verifies this, showing `\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This ensures the data, which is still `{\"start\": true}` at this point (since neither Set node modified it), flows all the way through to the very last node.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow as described and represented in the JSON. It's a straightforward sequence: trigger, data passes through a Set, then passes through another Set." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Manual wait set' that starts with a Manual Trigger, connects to a Wait node set for 2 seconds, and then proceeds to a basic Set node.

The user prompt specifies a few key things: the workflow name, the sequence of nodes, the configuration for the wait node, and that the workflow should be inactive.\n\nFirst off, the name of the workflow needs to be \"Manual wait set\". That's a straightforward global setting for the workflow.\n\nNow, for the nodes themselves. The prompt says it \"starts with a Manual Trigger\". This immediately tells me my first node will be a trigger node, and specifically a manual one. So, I'll bring in the **Manual Trigger** node.\n* Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is ideal because it allows for a user to manually start the workflow, which is exactly what's requested. For a simple manual trigger, its `parameters` object is usually empty, as seen in the JSON. There aren't any specific settings needed beyond its existence to initiate the flow.\n\nNext, the prompt states it \"connects to a Wait node set for 2 seconds\". So, after the Manual Trigger, the flow will proceed to a **Wait** node.\n* Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.wait`.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1`. The Wait node is perfectly suited for pausing the workflow execution for a specified duration, which is precisely what's needed here.\n* Now, for its configuration: the prompt is very specific \"set for 2 seconds\". Looking at the JSON, the `parameters` for this node are `{\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}`. This perfectly aligns with the requirement. It tells the workflow to pause for exactly two units of time, where each unit is a second. This is a crucial part of the workflow's logic.\n\nFollowing the Wait node, the prompt says it \"then proceeds to a basic Set node\". So, after the wait, the execution flow will move into a **Set** node.\n* Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.set`.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1`. A Set node is incredibly versatile. It's often used to define, add, or modify data fields in the workflow's item data. The prompt just says \"basic Set node,\" and the JSON shows its `parameters` as `{\"options\": {}}`. This means it's configured with no specific fields to set or expressions to evaluate, essentially acting as a passthrough for the data or a placeholder. If there were data to be manipulated or added, the options would be defined here, perhaps adding a fixed value or an expression. But for a \"basic\" one, an empty configuration is fine.\n\nNow, let's consider the connections between these nodes to ensure the data flows correctly as described.\n* The **Manual Trigger** should connect its main output to the main input of the **Wait** node. The JSON confirms this with `connections: {\"Manual\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This sets up the direct, sequential flow.\n* Then, the **Wait** node, once its two-second pause is complete, should connect its main output to the main input of the **Set** node. The JSON confirms this as well: `connections\": {\"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This completes the desired sequence: Manual Trigger -> Wait -> Set.\n\nFinally, a very important part of the prompt is \"Ensure the workflow is inactive\". This is a top-level workflow setting. I need to make sure the `active` property of the workflow is set to `false`. Looking at the JSON, it shows `\"active\": false`, which matches the requirement perfectly. This means the workflow won't automatically run or respond to triggers until it's manually activated." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with two separate schedule triggers.

The goal is clear: two separate schedule triggers, both feeding into one 'Set' node, which then identifies which trigger started it all.\n\nFirst, I need to think about the entry points of my workflow. The prompt specifically asks for \"two separate schedule triggers.\" This immediately tells me I'll need two instances of the Schedule Trigger node.\n\nLet's add the first one. I'll choose the **Schedule Trigger** node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1.2`.\n* Why this node? It's the standard way to initiate a workflow at predefined intervals, which is exactly what \"schedule trigger\" implies. It will effectively \"wake up\" the workflow when its time comes.\n* For its configuration, the JSON shows `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This is a basic setup for a schedule trigger. It means it will fire according to its default interval, which often translates to something like \"once every hour\" or \"once a day\" unless more specific intervals are added within that `interval` array. For now, this is perfectly fine, as the core requirement is just *having* the trigger.\n* I'll name this one \"Trigger A\", as indicated in the provided JSON, to make it distinct.\n\nNow, for the second entry point, I'll add another **Schedule Trigger** node.\n* Again, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` with `typeVersion` `1.2`.\n* The reasoning is the same as the first; I need a *separate* trigger for the second initiation point.\n* Its configuration, `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`, is identical to the first, meaning it will also operate on its default schedule.\n* I'll name this one \"Trigger B\" to clearly differentiate it from the first.\n\nSo, I've got my two independent starting points. Next, the prompt states that \"Both triggers should connect to a single 'Set' node.\" This means I'll need a node that can receive input from multiple sources and then perform an action on the data. The 'Set' node is perfect for this; it's designed to manipulate data fields.\n\nLet's add the **Set** node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is `3.4`.\n* Why the Set node? Because the final part of the requirement is to \"capture the name of the trigger node that initiated its execution into a field called 'prevNode'.\" The Set node allows me to add a new field (or modify an existing one) and populate it with a dynamic value, which is exactly what I need here.\n* For its configuration, the crucial part is within the `assignments` parameter. I'm adding a new field named `prevNode`. The value for this field is `={{ $prevNode.name }}`. This is a brilliant n8n expression:\n * `$prevNode` is a special variable in n8n that refers to the node directly preceding the current node in the workflow's execution path for that particular item of data.\n * `.name` then accesses the `name` property of that preceding node.\n * So, if \"Trigger A\" initiates the workflow, when the execution reaches this 'Set' node, `$prevNode` will refer to \"Trigger A\", and `$prevNode.name` will resolve to \"Trigger A\".\n * Similarly, if \"Trigger B\" initiates it, `$prevNode.name` will resolve to \"Trigger B\". This perfectly fulfills the requirement of capturing the initiating trigger's name.\n* I'll name this node \"Edit Fields\", consistent with the JSON.\n\nNow for the connections. The prompt says \"Both triggers should connect to a single 'Set' node.\"\n* I'll connect the \"main\" output of \"Trigger A\" to the \"main\" input of \"Edit Fields\". When \"Trigger A\" fires, it will pass control (and any default data) to \"Edit Fields\".\n* Similarly, I'll connect the \"main\" output of \"Trigger B\" to the \"main\" input of \"Edit Fields\". This means \"Edit Fields\" is effectively a converging point for both triggers.\n\nAnd that's it! The workflow now has two distinct entry points that can run independently, and regardless of which one runs, the subsequent 'Set' node will correctly identify and record which trigger initiated that specific execution into the `prevNode` field. It's a clean and efficient fan-in design." } { "prompt": "Generate the JSON for an inactive n8n workflow named 'Campa\u00f1a - Agente de voz'. It should contain a single webhook node configured for POST requests to path\/ID 'd77c9082-6fa5-4bea-921b-c73c612ca26c', with creation and update timestamps from April 7, 2025.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Campa\\u00f1a - Agente de voz\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"httpMethod\": \"POST\", \"path\": \"d77c9082-6fa5-4bea-921b-c73c612ca26c\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Right, let's get this workflow designed. The request is for a pretty straightforward setup: an inactive n8n workflow that just acts as a listener for incoming data. Specifically, it needs a webhook, and it's got a particular name and some timestamps to adhere to.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow in n8n needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the requirements, it's explicitly stated that it should \"contain a single webhook node\". This simplifies things immensely, as I don't need to consider any other initial triggers like cron jobs, interval triggers, or database listeners. A webhook is perfect for receiving external HTTP requests, which is exactly what we need here.\n\nSo, the first node I'll place on the canvas, right at the very beginning, will be a `Webhook` node. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`. I'll set its `position` to `[0, 0]` as it's the very first node. For the `typeVersion`, the JSON indicates `2`, which is the current and recommended version for webhook nodes, offering the latest features and stability. Using an older version might have subtle differences in parameters or behavior, but sticking to `typeVersion: 2` is definitely the way to go here. I'll give it the default name \"Webhook\" as shown in the JSON, which is clear and descriptive for its function.\n\nNow that the Webhook node is in place, I need to configure its parameters to match the requirements. The prompt specifies that it should be \"configured for POST requests\". This means the `httpMethod` parameter within the webhook node must be set to `POST`. This tells the webhook to only trigger when it receives an incoming HTTP POST request, ignoring GET, PUT, or DELETE requests, which is a common security and design practice for receiving data.\n\nNext, the prompt gives a very specific \"path\/ID: 'd77c9082-6fa5-4bea-921b-c73c612ca26c'\". This value is crucial because it forms the unique part of the URL that external systems will call to trigger this workflow. So, I'll enter this exact string into the `path` parameter of the Webhook node. It's also important to note that this specific ID is also used as the `webhookId` property for the node itself, which helps n8n internally manage and identify this particular webhook. For `options`, the JSON shows an empty object `{}`. This means no special options like authentication (e.g., header auth or query parameter auth) or custom response modes are needed for this basic setup, which keeps it simple.\n\nWith the single `Webhook` node configured, the core functionality of receiving data is set up. Since the prompt specifies \"a single webhook node\", I don't need to connect it to any subsequent nodes, nor do I need to add any other processing or action nodes. This workflow is purely a trigger.\n\nFinally, I need to address the overall workflow properties. The workflow needs to be named \"Campa\u00f1a - Agente de voz\", so I'll set the `name` field accordingly. Critically, the prompt states it should be an \"inactive n8n workflow\", which means the `active` flag for the entire workflow must be `false`. This ensures it won't start listening for requests until someone manually activates it.\n\nThe timestamps are also specified: \"creation and update timestamps from April 7, 2025.\" I'll set the `createdAt` field to an appropriate timestamp on April 7, 2025, and the `updatedAt` field to a slightly later timestamp on the same date. It's typical for `updatedAt` to be slightly after `createdAt` even for a new workflow, as saving it after initial setup counts as an update.\n\nSince there's only one node and it's a trigger, there are no `connections` between nodes, so that object will remain empty. Other standard workflow properties like `id` and `versionId` will be set to their unique identifiers as provided in the JSON. `meta`, `pinData`, `staticData`, and `tags` can remain null or empty as no additional metadata, pinned data, static configuration, or tagging is required for this simple workflow. The `triggerCount` will naturally be `0` because it's inactive and hasn't executed. The `settings.executionOrder` will default to `v1`.\n\nThat covers everything.

Oh, and it needs a specific instance ID.\n\nSo, the very first thing I'll set up is the workflow's metadata. The prompt specifies `instanceId: \"123\"`. This is important for identifying this particular workflow execution. So, I'll add the `meta` block right at the top of the workflow JSON: `{\"meta\": {\"instanceId\": \"123\"}}`. Simple, but crucial.\n\nNext, I need to figure out how this workflow is going to *start*.

It's a standard, foundational node.\n* The `typeVersion` for this node is `1`, which is the current, stable version. I don't anticipate any version-specific behavior issues here.\n* For `parameters`, this node typically doesn't need any special configuration for its basic function, so I'll leave the `parameters` object empty `{}`.\n* I'll give it a descriptive `name` to make it clear what it does: \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\". That's user-friendly.\n* I'll place it visually on the left side of my canvas, say at `position: [300, 240]`.\n\nNow, what comes after the trigger?

The 'n8n' node should be configured to manage a 'credential' resource...\"\nThis tells me my second node will be the `n8n` node itself, designed for interacting with the n8n API.\n* So, I'll add a node of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.n8n\"`. This node is specifically designed to perform operations *within* or *on* the n8n instance itself, like managing workflows, credentials, or users via its API. It's exactly what's needed for the \"manage a 'credential' resource\" part.\n* Its `typeVersion` is also `1`, indicating the standard version of this node.\n* Now, for the `parameters` of this 'n8n' node, this is where the core logic of managing the credential comes in.\n * The prompt says \"manage a 'credential' resource.\" So, I need to set `resource: \"credential\"`. This tells the n8n node that its target is a credential.\n * It specifies \"named '123'\". This `name` parameter will be `name: \"123\"`. This is the specific identifier for the credential we want to manage.\n * And it says \"of type '123'\". This refers to the actual *type* of credential (e.g., whether it's an API Key, OAuth2, generic credential, etc.). So, `credentialTypeName: \"123\"`.\n* Crucially, to interact with the n8n API, this node needs authentication. The prompt states \"utilizing 'n8n account' API credentials.\" This means I need to link an existing credential that's configured in n8n for API access.\n * I'll include the `credentials` block: `{\"n8nApi\": {\"id\": \"10\", \"name\": \"n8n account\"}}`. This specifies that it should use an API credential, and it references one by an arbitrary ID and a generic name, \"n8n account\", indicating it's a pre-configured credential for connecting to n8n itself. I wouldn't know or infer the actual API key or token, just that a suitable credential reference is required here.\n* I'll give this node the `name: \"n8n\"`, as specified.\n* I'll position it to the right of the trigger, perhaps `position: [540, 240]`, keeping a neat flow.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The prompt says \"connects a 'Manual Trigger' node to an 'n8n' node.\"\n* So, I need to define the `connections` object.\n* The `Manual Trigger` node, named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", will be the source.\n* Its main output (`main`) needs to feed into the `n8n` node's main input (`main`).\n* This translates to `connections: {\"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"n8n\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`.

This is workflow metadata, so I'll make sure to set that in the `meta` block of the overall workflow JSON. That's a foundational piece for identifying this particular workflow instance.\n\nNow, onto the actual workflow logic. Every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly specifies a 'manual trigger' node. This is perfect for when someone wants to explicitly kick off the workflow, typically for testing or a one-off run. So, my first node will definitely be of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and looking at the provided JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. I'll name it \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" as requested. For a simple manual trigger, there aren't really any specific parameters to configure; its job is simply to generate an item and start the flow when activated. It's the most straightforward way to begin a user-initiated workflow. I can't imagine needing a different type or version for this simple start.\n\nNext, the core action. The user wants to manage a 'credential' resource using an 'n8n' node. This tells me I need a node that can interact with the n8n instance's own API. The `n8n` node type is specifically designed for this purpose \u2013 to manage resources within the n8n environment itself, like workflows, credentials, executions, etc. So, the second node in my workflow will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.n8n`, also `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The 'manual trigger' generates the initial signal or item, and that item needs to be passed to the 'n8n' node to initiate the credential management operation. So, I'll draw a connection from the 'main' output of the 'manual trigger' node to the 'main' input of the 'n8n' node. This ensures that when the trigger fires, the 'n8n' node receives the necessary input to proceed.\n\nLet's configure the 'n8n' node. The prompt is quite specific here: it needs to manage a 'credential' resource. So, in the node's parameters, I'll set the `resource` field to `credential`. This tells the 'n8n' node what type of n8n internal object it will be interacting with.\n\nThen, within the 'credential' resource operation, I need to specify the `name` and `credentialTypeName`. The prompt says both should be '123'. So, these parameters will be set accordingly. This will dictate which specific credential is being managed, or if it's a new one, what its initial properties are.\n\nFinally, for the 'n8n' node to actually interact with the n8n API, it needs authentication. The prompt states \"using an 'n8n account' (ID 10) n8nApi credential.\" This means I'll configure the `credentials` section of the 'n8n' node. I'll specify that it uses an `n8nApi` type credential, and it will reference the specific credential identified by its ID, in this case, '10', which is conveniently named \"n8n account\". This is crucial for the node to have the necessary permissions to perform actions on the n8n instance. Without this credential, the operation would fail due to lack of authorization. I'm making sure not to include any sensitive values from that credential here, just the reference to it.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The `manualTrigger` starts the process, and the `n8n` node performs the requested credential management operation using the specified authentication. The flow is linear and straightforward, exactly what's needed for this type of task. I'm satisfied with this structure; it directly addresses all parts of the user's request." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then creates a folder named 'n8n-rocks' in Microsoft OneDrive using the 'n8n-docs-creds' credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"name\": \"n8n-rocks\", \"options\": {}, \"resource\": \"folder\", \"operation\": \"create\"}, \"name\": \"Microsoft OneDrive\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.microsoftOneDrive\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Microsoft OneDrive\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning out this n8n workflow.

Looking at the provided JSON, it's using `typeVersion: 1`, which is the standard version for this base node. Its position is set at `[250, 300]`, which is just an arbitrary starting point on the canvas, quite central.

This immediately tells me I need a node that can interact with Microsoft OneDrive. n8n has a dedicated node for that, which is great.\n\nMy next step would be to add the `n8n-nodes-base.microsoftOneDrive` node. This node is designed to perform various operations within OneDrive, which fits our \"create folder\" requirement perfectly. I'd place it to the right of the manual trigger, perhaps at `[450, 300]` visually, to show a clear flow from left to right. It's also `typeVersion: 1`, indicating it's the standard implementation of the OneDrive node.\n\nLet's think about how to configure this Microsoft OneDrive node. We need to create a folder, so under its `parameters`:\n* The `resource` needs to be set to \"folder\". We're not dealing with files or permissions directly, but specifically with a folder object.\n* The `operation` must be \"create\". This is precisely what the prompt asks for.\n* The `name` of the folder is specified as 'n8n-rocks', so I'd input \"n8n-rocks\" into that parameter field.\n* The `options` are empty here. This implies we're creating it in the default or root location, as no parent folder ID or other specific options are provided. If we wanted to create it within a subfolder, we'd add a `parentFolderId` here. But for now, the default behavior of creating it in the user's primary drive makes sense given the prompt.\n\nCrucially, to interact with OneDrive, this node needs authentication. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"microsoftOneDriveOAuth2Api\": \"n8n-docs-creds\"}`. This tells me that the node will use an existing credential entry, specifically one configured for Microsoft OneDrive's OAuth2 API, and its internal identifier or name is \"n8n-docs-creds\". This is how n8n securely manages access tokens and permissions without embedding sensitive data directly into the workflow itself. It would have been pre-configured in the n8n instance.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The manual trigger needs to initiate the OneDrive action. So, I would connect the 'main' output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (our manual trigger node) to the 'main' input of the \"Microsoft OneDrive\" node. The `connections` object in the JSON confirms this: `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Microsoft OneDrive\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This simply means that when the manual trigger fires, it passes its execution flow to the OneDrive node, allowing it to perform its operation. No actual data is explicitly being passed from the trigger to OneDrive in this case, it's purely about initiating the next step in the sequence." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive workflow named 'My workflow 8' that starts with a manual trigger.

The prompt asks for it to be named 'My workflow 8', so I'll configure that in the general workflow settings. It's important to get the name right from the start for organizational purposes. Also, the prompt specifically states it should be an 'inactive' workflow. This means that once it's saved, it won't run on any schedule or automatically trigger until it's explicitly activated. This is a good default for a workflow under development, preventing accidental runs.\n\nNow, onto the actual logic. The prompt clearly states that the workflow \"starts with a manual trigger\". This tells me exactly what my first node needs to be. I'll search for and add a `Manual Trigger` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is 1. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to initiate the workflow when someone manually clicks a 'Test workflow' button or similar interface action. It's the simplest and most direct way to start a workflow based on a manual kick-off. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters; it just acts as a starting point. I'll place it on the far left of my canvas, as it's the entry point.\n\nNext, the prompt says it \"then retrieves all people (limit 10) from 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)'\". This immediately tells me I need a node that integrates with that specific data source. I'll look for a node named 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)'. Based on the common n8n node naming conventions and checking the provided JSON, its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` with `typeVersion` 1. I'll drag this node onto the canvas and connect its main output to the input of the `Manual Trigger` node. This establishes the flow: once the workflow is manually triggered, it will proceed to query the customer datastore. For configuration, the prompt specifies \"retrieve all people\", so I'll set the 'Operation' parameter for this node to `getAllPeople`. Additionally, there's a \"limit 10\" requirement, which is important for performance and scope, so I'll set the 'Limit' parameter to `10`. This ensures we only fetch a manageable batch of records, rather than potentially thousands, which is good practice.\n\nFinally, the prompt instructs me to \"use a 'Set' node to add `objectValue.prop1` as `123` (number) and `objectValue.prop2` as `someText` (string) using dot notation\". So, the last node in this sequence will be a `Set` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is 1. I'll connect the output of the 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node to the input of this `Set` node. The `Set` node is incredibly useful for adding new static data or transforming existing data, which is exactly what's requested here.\n\nNow, for the `Set` node's specific configuration:\nFirst, I need to add `objectValue.prop1` as a number `123`. So, I'll select to add a 'Number' value. For the 'Name' field, I'll type `objectValue.prop1`, and for the 'Value' field, I'll enter `123`.\nSecond, I need to add `objectValue.prop2` as a string `someText`. So, I'll add another value, this time choosing 'String'. For the 'Name', I'll put `objectValue.prop2`, and for the 'Value', I'll enter `someText`.\n\nThe critical part for these two properties is the \"using dot notation\" instruction. Without this, the `Set` node would create flat properties named literally `objectValue.prop1` and `objectValue.prop2`. To achieve the desired nested object structure (an object called `objectValue` containing `prop1` and `prop2`), I need to go into the 'Options' section of the `Set` node and make sure the 'Dot Notation' toggle is enabled. This tells the node to interpret dots in the property names as indicators of nested objects, creating the correct data structure.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. The flow is clear: a manual kick-off, followed by data retrieval, and finally, data enrichment using a Set node with specific values and dot notation." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then uses a DebugHelper node to create 100 items of random data.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [780, 500]}, {\"parameters\": {\"category\": \"randomData\", \"randomDataSeed\": \"0\", \"randomDataCount\": 100}, \"name\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1000, 500]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's lay out the thought process for building this n8n workflow. The goal is straightforward: a workflow that starts manually and then generates 100 items of random data using a DebugHelper node.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The user prompt explicitly states \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This makes the choice very clear.\n\nSo, the first node I'd add to the canvas would be the **Manual Trigger** node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, which is exactly what we need. This node is fantastic because it allows us to initiate the workflow execution simply by clicking a button in the n8n editor, making it ideal for testing or workflows that aren't driven by external events.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1`. This indicates a stable, initial version of the node. For a basic trigger like this, I wouldn't expect much difference across minor versions.\n* Looking at its `parameters` in the JSON, they are empty `{}`. This makes perfect sense; a manual trigger typically doesn't require any specific configuration beyond its presence. Its name \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\" (as seen in the JSON) also clearly describes its function. I'd place it on the left side of the canvas, as is customary for trigger nodes, like a starting gun for the workflow.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step is to generate the random data. The prompt specifically mentions using a \"DebugHelper node to create 100 items of random data.\" This tells me exactly which node to add next.\n\nSo, I'd connect the **DebugHelper** node to the output of the Manual Trigger.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper`. The DebugHelper node is incredibly versatile for development. It can do many things, from simply passing through data, to inspecting data, to\u2014crucially for this task\u2014generating dummy data.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1`. Again, a common, stable version.\n* Now, how do we configure this DebugHelper to generate random data, specifically 100 items? This is where its `parameters` come into play.\n * The `category` parameter is set to `\"randomData\"`. This is key. It instructs the DebugHelper node to operate in its \"random data generation\" mode, rather than its other modes like \"Pass Through\" or \"Inspect.\" This directly aligns with the requirement.\n * Next, `randomDataCount` is set to `100`. This parameter directly controls how many individual data items the node will output. This perfectly fulfills the \"create 100 items\" part of the request.\n * Finally, there's `randomDataSeed` set to `\"0\"`. This is a thoughtful addition. While the prompt just asked for \"random data,\" using a seed makes the \"random\" data *reproducible*. If you run the workflow multiple times with the same seed, you'll get the exact same sequence of generated data. This is extremely valuable for testing and debugging, as it ensures consistency across runs. If I wanted truly different data every time, I'd leave this field empty, but for a stable testing scenario, `0` is a good choice.\n\nFor the connection between these two nodes, a simple `main` connection is all that's needed. The output of the \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\" (Manual Trigger) node feeds directly into the input of the \"DebugHelper\" node. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, the workflow proceeds directly to the DebugHelper to generate the data. Data from the trigger itself (which is usually just a single empty item) isn't strictly necessary for the DebugHelper's function in this configuration, as the DebugHelper is generating its *own* data, but the connection dictates the execution flow.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow starts with a user action and then immediately generates the specified random data, ready for subsequent nodes (though none are specified here). It's a clean, direct solution to the prompt's requirements." } { "prompt": "An n8n workflow starting with a Manual Trigger, followed by a disabled Code node named 'Error' that intentionally throws an error, and then connected to a Code node named 'Code'.

The request is quite specific: a Manual Trigger, a disabled 'Error' Code node, and then a 'Code' node, with both Code nodes adding a specific field, and finally, some tags.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly states we need a \"Manual Trigger.\" This is perfect for a workflow that I'd want to initiate myself, perhaps for testing, or simply when a specific event *doesn't* automatically kick it off. So, I'll begin by dropping a `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node onto the canvas. I'll name it something intuitive like \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is the default, and it works perfectly here. It's a `typeVersion: 1`, which is the standard. This node doesn't require any specific parameters to be set; its job is simply to generate an empty item when triggered, allowing the workflow to proceed. I'd place it roughly at `[460, 460]` on my canvas to give myself some room.\n\nNext, the prompt asks for a \"disabled Code node named 'Error' that intentionally throws an error.\" This is interesting \u2013 a disabled node that *would* throw an error. This implies it's either for documentation, a placeholder for future debugging, or perhaps a path that's temporarily turned off. So, my next step is to add a `n8n-nodes-base.code` node. I'll name this one \"Error\" as per the instructions. It's also `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, the crucial part for this \"Error\" node is its configuration. It needs to throw an error and also add a `myNewField`. For adding the field, I'll use a standard loop to iterate over input items and set `item.json.myNewField = 1;`. To intentionally throw an error, I can simply include an undefined variable or a syntax error, like `error` as shown in the prompt's description. This will ensure that if this node were *ever* enabled, it would fail. So, the JavaScript code will look something like this:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n error \/\/ This will cause the intentional error\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nAnd critically, I must remember to disable it. There's a checkbox or setting for `disabled` on the node itself, which I'll set to `true`. I'll connect its main output from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's main input. I'd position it to the right, perhaps around `[680, 460]`.\n\nAfter the disabled \"Error\" node, the prompt says it's \"then connected to a Code node named 'Code'\". So, I'll drag out *another* `n8n-nodes-base.code` node. I'll name this one simply \"Code\", as requested. Again, `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nThis \"Code\" node also needs to add `myNewField` to the input items, but this one *shouldn't* throw an error. So, its JavaScript code will be similar to the 'Error' node, but without the `error` line:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nI'll draw a connection from the \"Error\" node's main output to the \"Code\" node's main input. Even though \"Error\" is disabled, the connection is still valid in terms of workflow structure; when a disabled node is encountered, n8n generally passes the input items *through* it to the next connected node as if the disabled node wasn't even there in the execution path. So, this flow will work correctly. I'll place this node further right, at `[900, 460]`.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that the workflow needs to be tagged with 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'. This isn't a node configuration, but rather a top-level workflow setting. So, once all the nodes are in place and connected, I'd go to the workflow settings or metadata section and add these tags. They typically have a name, and often a creation and update timestamp, along with an internal ID, but for my design process, simply knowing the names 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2' is sufficient. These tags help with organization and searchability within the n8n instance.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow design based on the requirements! It's a straightforward sequence with a specific node being intentionally disabled, which is a common pattern for managing different execution paths or temporary work." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers when a specific webhook is called. This webhook should then send an event to PostHog, using the `event` value from the webhook's query parameters as the event name and \"n8n\" as the distinct ID.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"eventName\": \"={{$json[\\\"query\\\"][\\\"event\\\"]}}\", \"distinctId\": \"n8n\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"PostHog\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.postHog\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [640, 280]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"f6d0071e-3cf9-49fd-8bbd-afdbea6b0c67\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [440, 280]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"PostHog\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The core requirement here is to listen for a webhook call and then use information from that call to send an event to PostHog.\n\nFirst things first, for any workflow that needs to start based on an external signal, a \"Webhook\" node is the natural choice. It's the entry point, the listener. So, I'd start by dragging out a **Webhook** node.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **Type Version**: `1`\n\nThis node is specifically designed to expose an HTTP endpoint that other applications or services can call. When that endpoint receives a request, it triggers the workflow. This is precisely what we need here for our initial trigger.\n\nNow, let's configure this Webhook node. For `path`, the JSON indicates `f6d0071e-3cf9-49fd-8bbd-afdbea6b0c67`. This is an automatically generated, unique identifier that n8n often assigns to webhook URLs to make them distinct. I'd set that to ensure the webhook has a specific and predictable URL that can be shared with the system calling it. The `webhookId` property also matches this, which is how n8n internally tracks this particular webhook instance. For `options`, it's an empty object, meaning we're fine with the default settings \u2013 it will listen for any HTTP method and respond with a basic success message, which is perfect for this use case. No need for complex configurations like specific HTTP methods or custom responses right now.\n\nOnce the Webhook node receives a call, it's going to output all the details of that call: the headers, the body (if any), and most importantly for us, the query parameters.\n\nNext, the prompt states that after the webhook is called, we need to send an event to PostHog. This tells me the very next logical step is to interact with PostHog. So, I'll connect the \"Webhook\" node directly to a **PostHog** node.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.postHog`\n* **Type Version**: `1`\n\nThis node is the dedicated integration for PostHog, allowing us to send events, identify users, or capture other types of data directly to our PostHog instance. It's exactly what's needed to fulfill the second part of the requirement.\n\nNow, let's think about how to configure this PostHog node, because this is where the specific requirements for the event name and distinct ID come in.\n\nThe prompt says the `event` value from the webhook's query parameters should be used as the event name. When the Webhook node processes an incoming request, query parameters are typically available in the output data under `query`. So, if someone calls the webhook like `...\/webhook\/some-path?event=user_signed_up`, the `user_signed_up` part will be accessible. To get this value, I'd use an n8n expression. Looking at the JSON, it's correctly set to `eventName: \"={{$json[\\\"query\\\"][\\\"event\\\"]}}\"`. This expression tells n8n to look at the JSON data from the previous node (the Webhook), find the `query` object, and then extract the value associated with the `event` key. This is a very common and powerful way to dynamically use data from previous steps in n8n.\n\nThen, for the `distinctId`, the prompt explicitly says \"n8n\". This is a static value, so I'd just type `n8n` directly into that field. No complex expressions needed here.\n\nThe `additionalFields` is an empty object, indicating we're not sending any extra properties with this PostHog event, which aligns with the current requirements.\n\nFinally, the PostHog node requires credentials to authenticate with the PostHog API. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"postHogApi\": \"PostHog Credentials\"}`. This means a PostHog API key and potentially an instance URL would have been pre-configured in n8n's credentials section under the name \"PostHog Credentials\". I would simply select that existing credential entry to allow the node to connect and send data securely to PostHog.\n\nThe connection between the Webhook node and the PostHog node is a simple `main` connection. This means the primary output of the Webhook node flows directly into the primary input of the PostHog node, making all the webhook's received data available for the PostHog node to process its configuration expressions.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The workflow starts with a specific trigger, processes the incoming data to extract what's needed, and then sends that precisely formatted event to PostHog. It's a clean, two-node solution for this specific problem." } { "prompt": "Generate a workflow that updates Shopify tags whenever an Onfleet task is delayed.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Updating Shopify tags on Onfleet events\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerOn\": \"taskDelayed\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Onfleet Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.onfleetTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"update\", \"updateFields\": {\"tags\": \"\"}}, \"name\": \"Shopify\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.shopify\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Onfleet Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Shopify\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break this down. The goal here is to set up a workflow that automatically updates Shopify tags when a task in Onfleet gets delayed. I'm building this from scratch, so I'll think through each piece.\n\nFirst, I need to figure out what kicks off this whole process. The prompt says \"whenever an Onfleet task is delayed.\" This immediately tells me I need a trigger. It has to be something that listens specifically for events coming from Onfleet.\n\nSo, my first thought is, \"I need an Onfleet trigger.\" I'd go into the node selection and look for something like \"Onfleet\" and then specifically \"Trigger.\"\n\nLooking at the JSON, the first node defined is indeed an \"Onfleet Trigger\" node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.onfleetTrigger`. This confirms it's the dedicated node for Onfleet events, which is exactly what I need.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the current version specified, so I'll stick with it. If there were other versions, I'd consider if there were new features or breaking changes relevant to this specific task, but `v1` is what's given.\n* Now, for configuring it: The most important part for a trigger is *what* it should trigger on. The prompt clearly states \"task is delayed.\" So, I'd look for a parameter to specify the event type. The JSON shows `parameters: {\"triggerOn\": \"taskDelayed\", \"additionalFields\": {}}`. This is perfect. Setting `triggerOn` to `\"taskDelayed\"` means this workflow will only execute when Onfleet sends a webhook specifically indicating a task delay. Any other Onfleet event (like a task being completed or started) wouldn't activate this particular workflow. The `webhookId` is just a unique identifier n8n generates for this specific webhook endpoint, so Onfleet knows where to send the data. It's not something I'd manually configure but rather what n8n provides once the workflow is saved and activated.\n\nSo, step one is solid: An `Onfleet Trigger` node, configured to listen for `taskDelayed` events. This node will essentially wait patiently for Onfleet to notify it.\n\nNext, once an Onfleet task *is* delayed, what needs to happen? The prompt says \"updates Shopify tags.\" This tells me the next step involves Shopify, and it's an action, not another trigger. It needs to modify existing data in Shopify.\n\nMy next thought is, \"Okay, I need a Shopify node to perform an update operation.\"\n\nLooking at the JSON again, the second node is named \"Shopify\".\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.shopify`. This is the standard node for interacting with Shopify's API. It handles all the communication, authentication (which would be set up in a separate credential), and operations.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1`. Again, sticking with the specified version, assuming it has all the necessary functionalities for this task.\n* Now, for configuration: I need to tell the Shopify node what to do. The goal is to \"update Shopify tags.\" So, the operation should clearly be `update`. The JSON confirms this: `parameters: {\"operation\": \"update\"}`. This is crucial because a Shopify node can do many things like creating products, getting orders, deleting customers, etc., but we specifically need to *update* something.\n* Once \"update\" is selected, I need to specify *what* to update. The prompt says \"tags.\" So, within the update settings, I'd look for a field like \"tags.\" The JSON shows `updateFields: {\"tags\": \"\"}`. This tells the Shopify node that the target field for the update is \"tags.\" The empty string `\"\"` for the `tags` value is interesting. It indicates that the *actual value* of the tags isn't hardcoded here. It implies that this value would almost certainly be dynamically populated from the data passed in from the previous \"Onfleet Trigger\" node. For instance, I might want to add a tag like \"Onfleet_Delayed\" or \"Delayed_Task_ID_{{ $json.body.taskId }}\" to a Shopify order or customer. For now, as per the JSON, it's just set up to target the `tags` field, awaiting the data from the previous node to determine the *actual* tag content.\n\nFinally, how do these two nodes connect? The Onfleet Trigger needs to pass the information about the delayed task to the Shopify node so it knows *which* Shopify entity (like an order or customer associated with the task) to update, and what tags to add.\n\nThe `connections` object in the JSON defines this: `{\"Onfleet Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Shopify\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`.\nThis means the `Onfleet Trigger` node's primary output (its `main` output) is connected directly to the `Shopify` node's primary input (its `main` input). This is the standard way to pass data sequentially in n8n. When the Onfleet Trigger fires, it will send all the data it received from Onfleet (about the delayed task) down this connection to the Shopify node. The Shopify node will then be able to access this data (e.g., using expressions like `{{ $json.data.task.id }}`) to figure out which Shopify item to update and what new tags to set. The current empty `tags` field in the Shopify node's configuration definitely points to this dynamic data flow.\n\nSo, in summary, it's a straightforward flow: Onfleet event happens -> data is captured -> data is sent to Shopify for an update.

The goal here is to create an n8n workflow that listens for a webhook, processes some data, converts it to XML, and then sends that XML back as the webhook response.\n\nFirst things first, we need to define the entry point for our workflow. For that, a **Webhook node** (type: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, typeVersion: 1) is the perfect choice. This node allows the workflow to be triggered by an external HTTP request. I'd add this right at the beginning because, well, that's how we're going to kick things off. Looking at the configuration, it's set up with a `path` of `\/test`. This means the webhook will be accessible at something like `your_n8n_url\/webhook\/test`. It's also set to `responseMode: responseNode`, which is crucial because it tells the Webhook node *not* to respond immediately but to wait for a subsequent node (like a Respond to Webhook node) to handle the actual HTTP response. This is exactly what we need for sending back custom XML.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next step is to define the data we want to work with. The prompt specifically mentions defining `number: 1` and `string: 'my text'` and keeping *only* these values. For this, a **Set node** (type: `n8n-nodes-base.set`, typeVersion: 1) is ideal. I'd connect this directly from the \"main\" output of our Webhook node, because as soon as the webhook is received, we want to immediately prepare our data. The Set node is perfect for creating new fields or modifying existing ones. In this case, we're creating new ones. I'd configure it by adding a new value for `number` with the value `1`, and another for `string` with the value `'my text'`. The really important part here, to meet the \"keeping only these values\" requirement, is to enable the `keepOnlySet` option. This ensures that any data that might have come from the webhook (like its headers or body) is discarded, and only our newly defined `number` and `string` fields remain for the next steps. This keeps our data clean and focused.\n\nWith our data prepared, the next requirement is to convert it into XML. For this, the **XML node** (type: `n8n-nodes-base.xml`, typeVersion: 1) is the obvious choice. I'll connect its \"main\" input from the \"main\" output of our Set node. So, the `number` and `string` data we just created will flow directly into this XML node. The configuration for this node is pretty straightforward for our use case: it's set to `mode: jsonToxml`. This is exactly what we want, as the Set node outputs JSON-like data, and we need it transformed into XML. The default options for `jsonToxml` are usually sufficient for simple conversions like this, so no specific `options` are defined, which is fine.\n\nFinally, we need to respond to the original webhook request with the generated XML. For this, the **Respond to Webhook node** (type: `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, typeVersion: 1) is the absolute go-to. I'll connect its \"main\" input from the \"main\" output of the XML node. This ensures that the XML data produced by the previous node is what gets sent back. Looking at its configuration, it's set to `respondWith: text`. This might seem a bit odd at first glance, given we want to send XML, but `text` is the most flexible option when you're providing the exact body content yourself. The crucial part is the `responseBody` expression: `={{ $json.data }}`. The XML node, when converting JSON to XML, typically outputs the resulting XML string within a property named `data` on the item. So, this expression correctly retrieves that XML string. And last but not least, to ensure the client receiving the response knows it's getting XML, we *must* set the `Content-Type` header. This is done under `options: responseHeaders`, where an entry is added with `name: content-type` and `value: application\/xml`. This tells the browser or client making the webhook request that the body content is XML, allowing it to parse it correctly. This completes the full flow." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"(TOOL) Agendar Hor\u00e1rio\" that creates a Google Calendar event.

The event details, specifically the start and end times, need to come from an incoming `query` object, and the event needs a fixed summary on a specific calendar. The workflow itself should be named \"(TOOL) Agendar Hor\u00e1rio\".\n\n**Step 1: Setting up the Workflow Entry Point**\n\nFirst, we need a way for this workflow to be triggered and to receive the `startTime` and `endTime` data. Since the prompt implies this workflow acts as a \"tool\" and will receive an incoming `query` object, the most suitable node for this is the `Execute Workflow Trigger`.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This node is perfect for workflows that are meant to be called externally, perhaps by an AI agent, another n8n workflow, or an API request. It acts as the initial \"listener\" or entry point, allowing us to pass data directly into the workflow's execution context. We don't need to configure any specific parameters on it; its default behavior of accepting incoming data is exactly what we need. It will ensure that the `query` object, containing `startTime` and `endTime`, is available for subsequent nodes.\n\n**Step 2: Performing the Core Action - Creating a Google Calendar Event**\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered and has the necessary data, the next logical step is to interact with Google Calendar to create the event. The dedicated node for this is, naturally, the `Google Calendar` node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.googleCalendar`\n* **Type Version:** `1.2`\n* **Reasoning:** This node provides all the necessary functionality to manage Google Calendar events. We'll be using its \"Create\" operation. It's the most direct and integrated way to achieve the primary objective. The specific `typeVersion` doesn't fundamentally alter the basic \"create event\" functionality for this use case, so version 1.2 is perfectly fine.\n\n**Step 3: Connecting the Nodes**\n\nNow that we have our trigger and our action node, we need to connect them. The `Execute Workflow Trigger` should pass its received data to the `Google Calendar` node.\n\n* **Connection:** We'll draw a \"main\" connection from the output of the `Execute Workflow Trigger` node to the input of the `Google Calendar` node. This ensures that any data received by the trigger (including our `query` object) flows downstream and is accessible to the `Google Calendar` node via expressions, specifically through the `$json` variable.\n\n**Step 4: Configuring the Google Calendar Node**\n\nThis is where we define the specifics of the event being created.\n\n* **Credentials:** Before anything else, the `Google Calendar` node needs to authenticate with a Google account to access calendars. We would select an existing Google Calendar OAuth2 credential. This credential allows the workflow to securely interact with the Google Calendar API on behalf of the user, without exposing sensitive tokens directly within the workflow definition.\n* **Calendar Selection:** The prompt explicitly states the event should be set on the `addept.ia@gmail.com` calendar. In the `Google Calendar` node's parameters, we would choose the \"Calendar\" field and select this specific email address from the list of available calendars. The workflow JSON shows `{\"__rl\": true, \"value\": \"addept.ia@gmail.com\", \"mode\": \"list\", \"cachedResultName\": \"addept.ia@gmail.com\"}`, which confirms it's selected from a dynamic list.\n* **Start Time:** The prompt says \"dynamically pulled from `startTime` property within an incoming `query` object\". This means we need to use an expression. We'd switch the \"Start\" field to expression mode and enter `={{ $json[\"query\"][\"startTime\"] }}`. This expression tells n8n to look at the incoming data (`$json`), find the `query` object within it, and then extract the value of the `startTime` property.\n* **End Time:** Similarly, for the end time, it should be \"dynamically pulled from `endTime` property within an incoming `query` object\". Again, we use an expression: `={{ $json[\"query\"][\"endTime\"] }}`. This ensures that the duration of the event is entirely dependent on the data provided when the workflow is triggered.\n* **Summary:** The prompt specifies a fixed summary: \"Reuni\u00e3o\". This goes into the \"Summary\" field within the \"Additional Fields\" section of the node. We'd simply type \"Reuni\u00e3o\" as a static string value.\n\nBy following these steps, we've set up a robust and dynamic workflow that meets all the requirements outlined in the prompt, from receiving input to creating the calendar event with specific details." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, retrieves all data from WordPress, converts it into a CSV spreadsheet file, and then saves it to a file named 'data.csv'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\", \"returnAll\": true}, \"name\": \"Wordpress\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wordpress\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [430, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"toFile\", \"fileFormat\": \"csv\"}, \"name\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [590, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"data.csv\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [740, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Wordpress\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Spreadsheet File\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wordpress\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start designing this n8n workflow. The user wants a workflow that's manually triggered, pulls data from WordPress, converts it to CSV, and saves it as 'data.csv'.\n\nFirst things first, how is this workflow going to start? The prompt explicitly says \"manually triggered\". So, the very first node we need is a trigger that can be executed on demand.\n\nLooking at the n8n nodes, the obvious choice for a manual start is the **Manual Trigger** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThis node is perfect because its sole purpose is to initiate a workflow execution when someone clicks \"Execute Workflow\" in the n8n UI. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters for its basic functionality, as we see in the JSON, its `parameters` are just an empty object `{}`. It simply serves as the starting point, passing an empty item to the next node to kick things off. So, I'll place this at the beginning of our workflow canvas.\n\nNext, once the workflow is triggered, what's the immediate action? The prompt states \"retrieves all data from WordPress\". This clearly points to needing a node that can interact with a WordPress instance.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Wordpress** node right after our `On clicking 'execute'` trigger.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.wordpress`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nNow, how do we configure this WordPress node? We need it to retrieve *all* data. Looking at the JSON, the `operation` parameter is set to `\"getAll\"`. This sounds exactly like what we need\u2014it tells the node to fetch all available records from WordPress based on its internal logic (like all posts, pages, etc., depending on what \"all data\" specifically means for the WordPress node's default behavior, but `getAll` is the most comprehensive option). Additionally, `returnAll` is set to `true`. This is crucial. If `returnAll` were `false`, it might only return a limited number of results per request, and we'd have to handle pagination ourselves. By setting it to `true`, the node takes care of fetching all pages of data automatically until there's nothing left. This makes our job much simpler for \"all data\".\n\nFor credentials, the `credentials` object has `wordpressApi` set to an empty string. This is where the actual connection details for WordPress would be configured, like the API URL and any necessary authentication, but of course, we don't put actual sensitive values directly into the workflow JSON like this. A user would set up a named credential in n8n for their WordPress instance, and then select that credential here.\n\nNow that we've got all the data from WordPress, the next step in the prompt is \"converts it into a CSV spreadsheet file\". This conversion step is key. We're dealing with structured data coming out of WordPress, and we need to transform it into a specific file format.\n\nThe ideal node for this transformation is the **Spreadsheet File** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThis node is incredibly versatile for handling various spreadsheet operations, and importantly, for converting data between formats or into formats like CSV. Its `operation` parameter is set to `\"toFile\"`. This confirms its role: it's taking the input data (from WordPress) and preparing it to be written out as a file. The critical part for the conversion aspect is the `fileFormat` parameter, which is set to `\"csv\"`. This is exactly what the prompt asked for\u2014converting it to a CSV file. The Spreadsheet File node will take the JSON data from the previous WordPress node and transform it into a CSV string, which it then outputs as binary data, ready to be saved.\n\nFinally, we have the last part of the prompt: \"and then saves it to a file named 'data.csv'\". We've got our CSV content as binary data from the Spreadsheet File node. Now we just need to write it to disk.\n\nFor this, the **Write Binary File** node is exactly what we need.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThis node is specifically designed to take binary data (which is what the Spreadsheet File node outputs when converting to a file format) and write it to a specified location on the system where n8n is running. The crucial parameter here is `fileName`, which is set to `\"data.csv\"`. This perfectly matches the requirement from the prompt. This node will take the CSV content generated by the `Spreadsheet File` node and save it to a file with this exact name.\n\nLet's just quickly check the connections to make sure the data flow makes sense:\n* The `On clicking 'execute'` node connects its `main` output to the `Wordpress` node's `main` input. This makes sense: the trigger starts the WordPress data retrieval.\n* The `Wordpress` node's `main` output connects to the `Spreadsheet File` node's `main` input. This is correct: the data retrieved from WordPress needs to be fed into the conversion node.\n* The `Spreadsheet File` node's `main` output connects to the `Write Binary File` node's `main` input. This is also correct: the converted CSV binary data is then passed to the node responsible for saving it.\n\nEverything looks logically sound and directly addresses all parts of the user's prompt. The choice of nodes and their configurations align perfectly with the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Standup Bot - Override Config\" that, when manually executed, converts incoming JSON data into a binary file named \"standup-bot-config.json\" and then writes this binary data to the file path `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Standup Bot - Override Config\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [240, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"jsonToBinary\", \"options\": {\"encoding\": \"utf8\", \"fileName\": \"standup-bot-config.json\"}}, \"name\": \"Move Binary Data\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [420, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Move Binary Data\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Move Binary Data\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down how I'd put this n8n workflow together, step by step, based on the requirements and the provided JSON. I need to build a workflow that's manually triggered, takes some JSON, converts it to binary, and then saves it to a specific file path.\n\nFirst off, I need a way to start this whole process. The prompt specifically says \"when manually executed.\" That immediately tells me I'll need a trigger node that responds to a user action.\n\nSo, the very first node I'd reach for is the **Manual Trigger** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This is the most straightforward way to fulfill the \"manually executed\" requirement. When someone clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n interface, this node will fire, initiating the rest of the workflow. It doesn't need any special configurations or parameters; its job is simply to kick things off. I'll name it something clear, like \"On clicking 'execute'\", just to make its purpose obvious to anyone looking at the workflow.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow \"converts incoming JSON data into a binary file named 'standup-bot-config.json'\". This is the core transformation step. I need a node that can take JSON data and represent it as binary.\n\nThinking about n8n's capabilities, the **Move Binary Data** node comes to mind. It's often used for handling different types of data, including conversions between JSON and binary.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Connection:** I'll connect the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's main output to the main input of this \"Move Binary Data\" node. This ensures that when the workflow starts, the flow of execution moves to this conversion step.\n* **Reasoning:** This node is perfect for the conversion task. I need to configure it correctly.\n * For its `mode` parameter, I'll set it to `\"jsonToBinary\"`. This is crucial because it tells the node to expect JSON data as input (which would be provided as workflow input when manually executing, or from a preceding node if it were a different trigger) and produce binary data as its output.\n * Within the `options` for this mode, I need to specify how the conversion should happen.\n * `\"encoding\": \"utf8\"`: UTF-8 is a widely used and robust text encoding. JSON data is text-based, so encoding it as UTF-8 ensures that characters are correctly represented when converted to binary. It's a standard and safe choice.\n * `\"fileName\": \"standup-bot-config.json\"`: This is important. When this node converts the JSON into binary, it needs to associate a file name with that binary data item *within n8n's internal data flow*. This isn't writing to a file yet; it's simply labeling the binary data for downstream nodes. The prompt specifies \"named 'standup-bot-config.json'\", so this name should match. I'll name this node \"Move Binary Data\" to reflect its function.\n\nFinally, the prompt states \"and then writes this binary data to the file path `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json`.\" This is the actual saving to disk step.\n\nFor this, the **Write Binary File** node is exactly what's needed.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Connection:** I'll connect the main output of the \"Move Binary Data\" node to the main input of this \"Write Binary File\" node.

I'll set this directly to the absolute path specified in the prompt: `\"\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json\"`. This tells the node precisely where to save the incoming binary data. I'll give this node a descriptive name like \"Write Binary File\".\n\nAnd that completes the workflow.

The prompt asks for an inactive n8n workflow named \"My workflow 8\" that starts with a manual trigger, gets customer data, and then adds some specific properties.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick off this workflow. The prompt clearly states it \"begins with a manual trigger.\" So, my very first node, naturally, will be a trigger that allows me to start the workflow whenever I need to, typically for testing or initial runs. Looking at the JSON, I see `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect. I'll place this node as the starting point; it's named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\", which is standard for a manual trigger. It doesn't require any specific parameters to configure, it just waits for a manual execution.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step is to actually *get* some data. The prompt specifies that it \"should then retrieve up to 10 people from an 'n8n training customer datastore'\". This immediately tells me I need a node that can interact with that specific datastore. Digging into the JSON, I can see a node with `type: n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is exactly what I need. I'll name it \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\".\n\nNow, how should this node be configured? The prompt asks for \"up to 10 people\" and implies a retrieval action. The JSON confirms this by setting `parameters.operation` to `\"getAllPeople\"`. This operation is designed to fetch records from the datastore. And to limit the number, as requested, `parameters.limit` is set to `10`. This ensures we don't accidentally pull in a massive dataset if there are many more customers than needed for this particular process. I'll connect this \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node directly to the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" trigger node, so as soon as the workflow is manually started, it proceeds to fetch the customer data. The data will flow from the trigger's `main` output into the datastore node's `main` input.\n\nAfter retrieving the customer data, the prompt specifies the final step: \"finally use a 'Set' node to add `objectValue.prop1` as the number `123` and `objectValue.prop2` as the string `\"someText\"`, ensuring dot notation is enabled.\" This sounds like a job for the `Set` node, which is incredibly useful for adding or modifying data fields on the incoming items. Looking at the JSON, indeed, I find a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 1`. I'll name it \"Set\".\n\nFor its configuration, I need to add two new properties. The first is `objectValue.prop1` as the number `123`. So, under the `parameters.values.number` array, I'll add an entry with `name: \"objectValue.prop1\"` and `value: 123`. It's important to specify it as a number type as requested. The second property is `objectValue.prop2` as the string `\"someText\"`. Similarly, under `parameters.values.string`, I'll add an entry with `name: \"objectValue.prop2\"` and `value: \"someText\"`.\n\nCrucially, the prompt mentions \"ensuring dot notation is enabled.\" This is vital because `objectValue.prop1` and `objectValue.prop2` imply that `prop1` and `prop2` should be nested inside an object named `objectValue`. If dot notation wasn't enabled, the Set node might just create a flat property named `objectValue.prop1`, which isn't what we want. The JSON confirms this by setting `parameters.options.dotNotation` to `true`. This tells the Set node to interpret the dots in the property names as paths to nested objects, creating them if they don't already exist.\n\nFinally, I'll connect the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node's `main` output to the \"Set\" node's `main` input. This ensures that each of the up to 10 customer items retrieved from the datastore will then pass through the Set node, where `objectValue.prop1` and `objectValue.prop2` will be added to each of them.\n\nOne last check: the prompt mentioned \"Create an inactive n8n workflow\". Looking at the very top level of the JSON, I see `\"active\": false`.

Since the goal is to receive incoming data or initiate a workflow from an external call, a \"Webhook\" node is the absolute perfect fit. It's designed precisely for this scenario. So, my starting point would definitely be to drag and drop a Webhook node onto the canvas.\n\nOnce I have the Webhook node, I need to configure its basic properties.\n* Its type is clearly `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`. This is the standard, built-in Webhook node, suitable for listening for HTTP requests.\n* The `typeVersion` is specified as `2`. I'd make sure to use this version. While a different version might have slight variations in parameters or internal logic, for a basic webhook, the core functionality typically remains consistent. I wouldn't anticipate major issues using v2.\n* The `position` `[360, 220]` is purely for layout on the canvas \u2013 just where it visually sits.\n* I'd give it a generic `name` like \"Webhook\" as provided, which is clear enough for a single-node workflow.\n* The `id` and `webhookId` are internal identifiers that n8n assigns, so I'd just ensure those are present as generated.\n\nNow, for the specific configuration of this Webhook node, looking at its `parameters`:\n* The `path` is crucial: `\"FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ\"`. This sets the unique identifier for our webhook endpoint. When n8n runs, this will become part of the URL clients will hit to trigger this workflow. It's a clear, custom path.\n* `options` is currently empty `{}`. This is fine. If we needed to add specific authentication (like expecting a header or a query parameter for security) or custom response behavior, those would go in here. But for a simple test setup, it's not needed.\n\nNext, I'd notice the `connections` object is empty `{}`. This makes perfect sense because it's a single-node workflow. The Webhook is the *trigger*; there are no subsequent nodes to connect to. If I were building a more complex workflow, this is where I'd define how the output of the Webhook node flows into the input of the next node. But for this isolated Webhook, it remains empty.\n\nThe most interesting part of this specific request is the `pinData`. This is where we define what the incoming data *looks like* when we run the workflow in test mode. It's like a mock HTTP request. This is incredibly valuable for development and debugging, allowing us to simulate specific scenarios without having to send an actual external HTTP request every time.\n* `\"Webhook\"` as the key tells n8n that this `pinData` applies to the node named \"Webhook\".\n* Inside that, it's an array, even for a single set of data, to allow for simulating multiple incoming items if needed.\n\nLet's break down the simulated request data within `pinData`:\n* `headers`: This is simulating the HTTP headers that would come with an actual request.\n * `connection: \"keep-alive\"`: A standard header indicating the client wants to maintain the connection.\n * `user-agent`: This is a very specific string `\"Mozilla\/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit\/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome\/129.0.0.0 Safari\/537.36\"`. This tells the workflow that the simulated request is coming from a Chrome browser on a macOS machine. This level of detail in `pinData` is great for testing how the workflow might react to different client types.\n * `accept: \"*\/*\"`: Indicates the client accepts any content type in return.\n * `cookie`: A placeholder for a cookie string. This would typically contain session tokens or other client-side state. For security reasons, I wouldn't populate this with any real, sensitive value, but just note that a cookie string would be present here if simulating a logged-in user or a session.\n * `host: \"localhost:5678\"`: Specifies the target host of the simulated request.\n * `accept-encoding: \"gzip, deflate\"`: Indicates the client can handle compressed responses.\n* `params`: This is an empty object `{}`. If the webhook path had dynamic segments (e.g., `\/user\/{id}`), the `id` value would appear here. Since our path is static, it's empty, as requested.\n* `query`: This is also an empty object `{}`. This would be where URL query parameters (like `?name=Alice&age=30`) would appear. Again, as requested, it's empty, so our simulated request doesn't include any.\n* `body`: Another empty object `{}`. This is for the request body (e.g., JSON payload, form data for a POST request). By keeping it empty, we're simulating a GET request or a POST request without a body, which is what the prompt asks for.\n* `webhookUrl`: `\"http:\/\/localhost:5678\/webhook-test\/FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ\"`. This is the exact URL that the simulated request is \"hitting.\" The presence of `\/webhook-test\/` is a key indicator that this is intended for test execution, rather than a live webhook (`\/webhook\/`).\n* `executionMode`: `\"test\"`. This explicitly flags the execution as a test run. This is important for n8n's internal handling, such as not marking it as a \"successful\" live execution in logs if that's not desired during testing.\n\nSo, in essence, I've created a self-contained, testable workflow that can simulate receiving a very specific HTTP request without actually needing an external system to send one. This is a very robust way to build and debug components that rely on incoming webhook data." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts manually, then fetches all people from the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node, and finally passes the output to a \"Set\" node named \"Edit Fields\" which includes all fields without modification.", "json": "{\"name\": \"NDV search bugs (introduced by schema view?)\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [800, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}, \"name\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1020, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": []}, \"includeOtherFields\": true, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [1240, 380]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start conceptualizing this workflow. The prompt clearly lays out three main stages: a manual start, fetching customer data, and then processing that data without modification.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt specifies \"starts manually.\" So, my immediate thought goes to a node that allows a user to initiate the workflow directly from the n8n interface. Looking at the available nodes, the `Manual Trigger` node is perfectly suited for this. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` here is `1`. This is ideal because it doesn't require any external event or schedule; it's simply there to be clicked when the user wants to run the workflow. Its configuration is usually quite straightforward, often requiring no specific parameters beyond its default setup, which is precisely what I see in the provided JSON; the `parameters` object is empty, indicating a default, no-frills setup for triggering. I'll place this as the very first node in my workflow canvas.\n\nNext, the prompt indicates that after starting, the workflow needs to \"fetch all people from the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node.\" This tells me I need a node that interacts with this specific \"Customer Datastore\". Based on the name, it sounds like a custom or specialized node designed for a training environment. I'd look for a node with `type` `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`. I see it here, with `typeVersion: 1`. This confirms it's the correct node to use for interacting with that particular data source. The crucial part of its configuration is the `operation`. The prompt specifies \"fetches all people,\" so I'd set the `operation` parameter to `getAllPeople`. This ensures the node retrieves every record available from the datastore, rather than searching for specific ones or performing other actions. This node will naturally connect from the output of the `Manual Trigger` node. So, the `Manual Trigger`'s `main` output will feed into the `Customer Datastore`'s `main` input. This establishes a direct flow: trigger, then fetch data.\n\nFinally, the prompt states that the output from the \"Customer Datastore\" node needs to be passed to a \"Set\" node named \"Edit Fields,\" and importantly, it \"includes all fields without modification.\" The `Set` node is a fantastic utility node in n8n for manipulating or structuring data. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and here it's `typeVersion: 3.4`. It's suitable because it allows me to define what fields should be included, excluded, or transformed. Since the requirement is to include *all* fields without modification, I'll need to configure it appropriately. The key parameter here is `includeOtherFields`. By setting `includeOtherFields` to `true`, I ensure that any fields coming into this node that aren't explicitly listed in the `assignments` array are passed through unchanged. And since the prompt says \"without modification\" and implies keeping *all* fields, I don't need to define any specific `assignments`. An empty `assignments` array, coupled with `includeOtherFields: true`, means \"take everything you receive and pass it along exactly as is.\" This `Set` node will receive its input from the `Customer Datastore` node. So, the `main` output of the `Customer Datastore` will connect to the `main` input of the `Edit Fields` `Set` node. This completes the linear flow: trigger -> fetch data -> pass data through unmodified.\n\nThis setup ensures the workflow starts manually, retrieves all customer records, and then makes them available for subsequent nodes, preserving their original structure and content, exactly as requested." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile How to Use AI APIs?\" that triggers via a webhook, fetches content from the Google Docs URL \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1y-AFyU1cgXPYRtcHkj5vPP4N8GkBXEaraIwWVg-fA8w\/view\", and then responds to the webhook with the fetched document content.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to set up an n8n workflow that starts when a webhook is called, grabs some content from a specific Google Docs URL, and then sends that content right back as the webhook response. And, of course, it needs a specific name, some tags, and to be active.\n\nFirst things first, for a workflow like this to even kick off, we need a trigger. Since the prompt explicitly states it \"triggers via a webhook,\" a **Webhook** node is the most logical starting point. So, that's what I'd drag onto the canvas right away. Its type would be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and in this case, the `typeVersion` is `2`. This node is perfect because it gives us a unique URL that external systems can hit to initiate our workflow.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Webhook node? The prompt specifies a precise path: \"e2e26504-97f6-4b10-b4fb-bae1c2d80923\". So, I'd go into the Webhook node's parameters and set the `path` field to that exact string. This ensures the webhook only triggers when that specific path is called. Also, it mentions that the `response mode` should be \"responseNode\". This is crucial because it means the webhook won't respond immediately when it's triggered. Instead, it will wait for a later node in the workflow, specifically a \"Respond to Webhook\" node, to send back the final response. This gives us the flexibility to perform operations like fetching the document *before* sending anything back. If it were set to \"lastNode\" or \"onReceived\", the response behavior would be different, potentially sending an empty or incomplete response before our content is ready.\n\nOnce the webhook receives a call, the next step is to actually get that document content. The prompt tells us we need to fetch content from a Google Docs URL. This immediately brings to mind the **Google Docs** node. It's the native way n8n interacts with Google Docs, so it's the ideal choice. I'd add this node right after the Webhook node and connect them, so that the workflow flows directly from the trigger to fetching the document. This node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and its `typeVersion` is `2`.\n\nFor the Google Docs node's configuration, the main parameter here would be the `operation`, which needs to be \"get\" to retrieve content. Then, we'd input the specific Google Docs URL provided in the prompt into the `documentURL` field. Of course, this node would also require proper authentication, likely through a credential configured in n8n, to access the document. This would be handled by providing a valid Google Docs account credential. Without the correct permissions or credential, the workflow wouldn't be able to fetch the document.\n\nSo, at this point, the workflow would have received a webhook, and then it would have successfully pulled the content from the Google Docs document. What's left? We need to send that content back to the original caller of the webhook. This is where the **Respond to Webhook** node comes into play. Since we set the Webhook node's response mode to `responseNode`, this is the node specifically designed to fulfill that pending response. I'd connect the Google Docs node's output to the input of this Respond to Webhook node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, and its `typeVersion` is `1.1`.\n\nConfiguring the Respond to Webhook node is straightforward. We want to send back the document content, which is essentially text. So, I'd set the `respondWith` parameter to \"text\". For the `responseBody`, we need to dynamically pull the content that the Google Docs node fetched. The Google Docs node, when performing a \"get\" operation, typically outputs the document's text content under a field like `content` in its JSON output. So, I would use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` to map that fetched content directly into the response body. This way, whatever was retrieved from Google Docs gets sent back to the client that called the webhook.\n\nFinally, looking at the overall workflow, it needs a specific name: \"GetOnboardingFile How to Use AI APIs?\". I'd set this in the workflow's main settings. It also needs to be `active` so it runs automatically when the webhook is hit. And, importantly, it needs to be tagged for better organization and searchability. The specified tags are \"Day 2\", \"AI Onboarding\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding\". These would be added in the workflow's tag settings. This metadata helps in finding and managing workflows, especially as the number of workflows grows in an n8n instance. And that completes the setup for this workflow." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object for an inactive entry named 'ComputerUsetest', with both `createdAt` and `updatedAt` set to '2025-03-12T14:14:51.068Z'.

I'm looking at the requirements, and it's interesting because the prompt is asking for a JSON object that *is* an n8n workflow, but it's an inactive and essentially empty one. My job here is to describe how I'd arrive at this specific definition.\n\nOkay, first things first, when I'm setting up any workflow, I always start with its fundamental identity and state. The prompt specifies a name: \"ComputerUsetest\". So, I'd immediately set the workflow's `name` property to `\"ComputerUsetest\"`. This is crucial for identification within the n8n system.\n\nNext, the prompt clearly states this should be an \"inactive entry.\" This directly translates to the `active` property. I would set `active: false`. This means the workflow won't automatically trigger or run, which is exactly what \"inactive\" implies. It's just a definition sitting there.\n\nThen, I see specific `createdAt` and `updatedAt` timestamps provided: `\"2025-03-12T14:14:51.068Z\"`. While n8n typically populates these automatically upon creation and saving, if I'm building this *exact* definition, I'd ensure these timestamps are hardcoded to match. They represent when the workflow was initially created and last modified, which in this case, is the same moment.\n\nSimilarly, unique identifiers are provided: `id: \"bCDw3w8IJky94a1z\"` and `versionId: \"bc3cb97e-83b5-4dbe-a42a-0265d10b1db1\"`. These are vital for n8n to uniquely identify this specific workflow and its particular version. I'd assign these directly as specified. The `id` is for the workflow itself, and `versionId` helps track different iterations of the workflow's definition.\n\nNow, thinking about the core structure of any n8n workflow, it's really about the nodes and how they connect. The prompt is very clear here: `nodes` and `connections` should match \"empty\/null states provided.\"\nSo, for `nodes`, the JSON shows an empty array: `nodes: []`. This is straightforward. It means there are no processing steps, no data manipulation, no integrations defined within this workflow. It's literally an empty canvas as far as execution logic goes. Since there are no nodes, there's no need to consider node types or versions because there aren't any functional nodes to configure.\nCorrespondingly, `connections` is an empty object: `connections: {}`. This makes perfect sense; if there are no nodes, there can be no connections between them. This further reinforces the idea that this is a placeholder or an initial, untouched workflow definition.\n\nNext up, the `settings` object. This workflow has `settings: {\"executionOrder\": \"v1\"}`. The `executionOrder` setting dictates how nodes within the workflow are processed. \"v1\" typically refers to the standard sequential execution order, where nodes execute one after another based on their connections. Even though this workflow has no nodes, defining this setting is part of its default configuration or a specific choice for how it *would* execute if nodes were added later. It's a fundamental property of the workflow's execution model.\n\nFinally, there are a few other metadata fields.\n`staticData: null`: This field is used to store data that persists across workflow executions, like a counter or a list. Setting it to `null` implies there's no such persistent data associated with this workflow currently.\n`meta: null`: This is for general metadata about the workflow, potentially used for internal tracking or custom properties. `null` indicates no such metadata is present.\n`pinData: {}`: This typically stores information related to \"pinned\" items within the workflow editor, like specific node outputs. An empty object means nothing is pinned.\n`triggerCount: 0`: This simply tracks how many times the workflow has been triggered. For an inactive, empty workflow, zero is the expected initial value.\n`tags: []`: This is an empty array, meaning no tags have been assigned to this workflow. Tags are useful for organizing and filtering workflows within the n8n UI.\n\nSo, essentially, I've just meticulously defined an n8n workflow that is named \"ComputerUsetest\", is currently inactive, has specific creation\/update timestamps, unique IDs, and is entirely devoid of any operational logic (nodes or connections), while adhering to a specific execution order and default\/empty states for its auxiliary properties. It's a complete, albeit empty, workflow definition." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and updates or creates a contact in ActiveCampaign.", "json": "{\"name\": \"\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 250]}, {\"parameters\": {\"email\": \"\", \"updateIfExists\": true, \"additionalFields\": {\"lastName\": \"\", \"firstName\": \"\"}}, \"name\": \"ActiveCampaign\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.activeCampaign\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [800, 250]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"ActiveCampaign\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants something pretty specific: a workflow that kicks off manually and then takes care of creating or updating a contact in ActiveCampaign. This sounds like a common administrative task or perhaps a way to quickly add leads that come in through other means.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. The prompt clearly states it should start with a \"manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me which node I need to lay down first.\n\n**Node 1: The Trigger**\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n\nThis is the perfect choice for the entry point of this workflow. A `manualTrigger` node, as its name suggests, allows a user to initiate the workflow simply by clicking an \"Execute\" button within the n8n interface. It's fantastic for testing, for one-off operations, or when you need explicit human control over when the process runs. For `typeVersion: 1`, it's a very straightforward node, essentially just acting as a \"go\" button, without any complex input parameters of its own. It simply emits an empty data item to start the flow. The JSON shows its name as \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is a descriptive default and makes it clear what this node does. It doesn't require any specific configuration within its parameters, which is why the `parameters` object in the JSON is empty.\n\nOnce that trigger fires, what's next? The prompt says \"updates or creates a contact in ActiveCampaign.\" This points directly to an integration with ActiveCampaign, so I'll need an ActiveCampaign node.\n\n**Node 2: The Action in ActiveCampaign**\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.activeCampaign`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n\nThis is the core action node for our workflow. The `activeCampaign` node is specifically designed to interact with the ActiveCampaign API, allowing us to perform various operations like managing contacts, deals, lists, and so on. It's exactly what's needed for creating or updating a contact.\n\nNow, how do we connect these two nodes? Logically, the output of our manual trigger should flow directly into this ActiveCampaign node. The JSON confirms this connection: `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"ActiveCampaign\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the `manualTrigger` node's main output (`main` connection) feeds directly into the `ActiveCampaign` node. The `manualTrigger` simply passes its signal to the `ActiveCampaign` node, telling it to execute its operation.\n\nLet's dive into the configuration of this `ActiveCampaign` node, as this is where the main logic for contact management lies.\n\n* **Parameters - `email`**: The JSON shows `email` as an empty string `\"\"`. This is crucial. For ActiveCampaign, an email address is typically the primary unique identifier for a contact. In a real execution, this field **must** be populated with the contact's email address. Since the trigger is manual and doesn't provide data, a user running this workflow would typically need to either manually input the email address directly into this node's configuration during a test run, or modify the workflow slightly to prompt for input, or perhaps pull this data from a previous node if this were part of a larger, more automated process. For this specific manual trigger setup, it means the user intends to provide this value at runtime or hardcode it before execution.\n\n* **Parameters - `updateIfExists`**: This is set to `true`. This parameter directly addresses the \"updates or creates\" part of the user's prompt. By setting `updateIfExists` to `true`, the `ActiveCampaign` node will intelligently check if a contact with the provided `email` already exists in ActiveCampaign. If it finds one, it will proceed to *update* that existing contact with any other information provided in this node. If no contact is found with that email, it will then *create* a brand new contact. This is a very efficient way to handle both scenarios without needing additional logic nodes.\n\n* **Parameters - `additionalFields`**: We see `lastName` and `firstName` here, both also as empty strings. Similar to the `email` field, these are placeholders. In a real scenario, you would provide the actual first and last names of the contact here. Again, for a manual trigger, these would either be entered manually by the user running the workflow or, in a more complex setup, dynamically pulled from data passed down from an earlier node. For `typeVersion: 1`, these common fields are often explicitly exposed in the node's parameters for ease of configuration.\n\n* **Credentials - `credentials.activeCampaignApi`**: This is set to `\"ActiveCampaign\"`. This is not the actual API key or sensitive data, but rather the name of a pre-configured credential in the n8n instance. Before this workflow can successfully connect to ActiveCampaign, a credential named \"ActiveCampaign\" (or whatever name is used here) must be set up in n8n's Credentials section. This credential would securely store the necessary ActiveCampaign API URL and API Key, allowing the workflow to authenticate and interact with ActiveCampaign without exposing those sensitive details directly within the workflow's JSON.\n\nSo, to summarize the flow: someone manually clicks \"execute\" on the trigger, which then tells the ActiveCampaign node to run. The ActiveCampaign node, using the configured credentials, will take the email, first name, and last name (which need to be supplied during execution) and intelligently either update an existing contact or create a new one based on the `updateIfExists` setting. This directly fulfills all requirements of the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with two schedule trigger nodes, \"Trigger A\" and \"Trigger B\".

This \"Set\" node then needs to capture the name of whichever trigger node activated it.\n\nMy first thought is, \"How do I start a workflow?\" Well, you need a trigger! Since the prompt specifies two schedule triggers, those will be my starting points. I'll place one first, then the other.\n\nLet's begin with **Trigger A**.\n* **Node Type:** This will be a `scheduleTrigger` node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1.2`.\n* **Why this node type?** It's the most straightforward way to initiate a workflow at predetermined intervals, which is precisely what a \"schedule trigger\" implies. It simply waits for its configured time, then starts the workflow.\n* **Configuration:** Looking at the JSON, its name is \"Trigger A\". For its scheduling rule, the `parameters` block shows `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This indicates it's set up for an interval-based trigger, but no specific interval (like \"every hour\" or \"daily\") is defined within the provided snippet. It's just a generic interval setup, ready to be configured by the user later if they need a specific timing. For now, it's a basic schedule trigger.\n\nNext, I need the second trigger, **Trigger B**.\n* **Node Type:** Again, a `scheduleTrigger` node: `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`, `typeVersion: 1.2`.\n* **Why this node type?** Same reasoning as Trigger A. It's another independent entry point to the workflow, allowing for different or identical schedules to kick off processes.\n* **Configuration:** Its name is \"Trigger B\", and its `parameters` for the rule are also `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`, indicating a similar basic interval setup. It will function identically to Trigger A in terms of its core triggering mechanism, just as a separate instance.\n\nNow that I have my two triggers, where do they send their data? The prompt says \"Both triggers should connect to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields'\". So, the \"Set\" node is the next logical step.\n\nI'll add the **Edit Fields** node.\n* **Node Type:** This will be a `Set` node, `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.4`.\n* **Why this node type?** The `Set` node is ideal when you need to define, modify, or add new data fields (variables) to the incoming items. The prompt specifically asks to set a variable, making the `Set` node the perfect choice for this operation.\n* **Configuration:**\n * Its name is clearly \"Edit Fields\", as specified.\n * Under its `parameters`, there's an `assignments` array. This is where I'll define the new variable.\n * Inside `assignments`, there's one entry: `{\"id\": \"...\", \"name\": \"prevNode\", \"value\": \"={{ $prevNode.name }}\", \"type\": \"string\"}`.\n * I'm creating a new field (or variable) named `prevNode`.\n * Its `type` is `string`, which makes sense because I expect a node's name, which is text.\n * The most crucial part here is the `value`: `={{ $prevNode.name }}`. This is an n8n expression. The `$prevNode` object is a special variable that holds information about the node that directly preceded the current node in the workflow execution path. By accessing `$prevNode.name`, I'm instructing the \"Set\" node to dynamically retrieve the name of the node that sent data to it. This directly fulfills the requirement of setting `prevNode` to the name of the preceding node. If \"Trigger A\" fires, `prevNode` will be \"Trigger A\"; if \"Trigger B\" fires, `prevNode` will be \"Trigger B\". This is very clever.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these nodes.\n* **Connection 1:** \"Trigger A\" needs to connect to \"Edit Fields\". The connection type will be `main`, meaning it's the standard data flow from one node to the next.\n* **Connection 2:** \"Trigger B\" also needs to connect to \"Edit Fields\". Again, it will be a `main` connection.\n\nThis setup means that \"Edit Fields\" will receive data from two potential sources. When either \"Trigger A\" or \"Trigger B\" activates, it will send its output to \"Edit Fields\". The `={{ $prevNode.name }}` expression within \"Edit Fields\" will then correctly identify which of the two triggers was the one that initiated that specific workflow run. This design is robust for handling multiple entry points to a common processing step." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow that receives a POST webhook at `\/video-info`, extracts a `url` from its body, and sends it as `videoUrl` in a POST request to `http:\/\/95.216.88.178\/video-ratio`.

The user prompt clearly states \"receives a POST webhook at `\/video-info`\". This immediately tells me I need a webhook to act as the entry point.\n\nSo, the very first node I'd add would be a **Webhook node**.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **TypeVersion:** 2\n* **Why this node:** This is the standard way to trigger an n8n workflow when an external system sends an HTTP request. Since the prompt specifies receiving a POST request at a particular path, this is the perfect fit.\n* **Configuration:**\n * I'd set the `HTTP Method` to `POST` because the prompt says \"receives a POST webhook\".\n * The `Path` would be set to `\/video-info`, as specified in the prompt.\n * Crucially, the prompt also says \"Then, respond to the original webhook with a JSON object...\", which implies a delayed response. So, I'd configure the `Response Mode` to `Respond to Webhook Node`. This tells the webhook to wait for a specific `Respond to Webhook` node later in the workflow to send the final reply. This is important to ensure we can process the external API call before sending our answer.\n\nNext, after receiving the webhook, the prompt says to \"extracts a `url` from its body, and sends it as `videoUrl` in a POST request to `http:\/\/95.216.88.178\/video-ratio`.\" This clearly indicates an outgoing HTTP call.\n\nSo, the next node connected to the Webhook node would be an **HTTP Request node**.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`\n* **TypeVersion:** 4.2\n* **Why this node:** This node is designed for making HTTP requests to external services, which is exactly what we need to do to interact with `http:\/\/95.216.88.178\/video-ratio`.\n* **Configuration:**\n * The `Method` would be `POST`, as stated in the prompt.\n * The `URL` would be `http:\/\/95.216.88.178\/video-ratio`, directly from the prompt.\n * The prompt specifies sending `videoUrl` in the body. This means I'll need to enable `Send Body` and select `JSON` as the body content type. Then, I'd add a `Body Parameter` with the name `videoUrl`.\n * Now, for the `Value` of `videoUrl`, I need to extract the `url` from the *incoming* webhook's body. I'd use an expression for this: `{{ $json.body.url }}`. This expression accesses the `url` property found within the `body` object of the data passed from the previous (Webhook) node. I'd also make sure to set a `Content-Type: application\/json` header in the HTTP Request node's headers, as it's common practice for JSON POST requests.\n\nFinally, after the HTTP Request node gets a response from the external API, the prompt states: \"Then, respond to the original webhook with a JSON object containing the `width`, `height`, and `ratio` returned by the external API.\" This means the last step is to formulate that response.\n\nSo, the last node, connected after the HTTP Request node, would be a **Respond to Webhook node**.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`\n* **TypeVersion:** 1.1\n* **Why this node:** Because the initial Webhook node was configured to wait for a `Respond to Webhook Node` to send its response, this is the specific node type required to fulfill that obligation.\n* **Configuration:**\n * I'd set `Respond With` to `JSON` because the prompt asks for a JSON object.\n * For the `Response Body`, I need to construct the JSON object using the data returned by the *previous* node (the HTTP Request node). Assuming the `http:\/\/95.216.88.178\/video-ratio` API returns `width`, `height`, and `ratio` fields, I'd use expressions like this:\n ```json\n {\n \"width\": \"{{$json.width}}\",\n \"height\": \"{{$json.height}}\",\n \"ratio\": {{$json.ratio}}\n }\n ```\n This takes the `width`, `height`, and `ratio` values directly from the output of the HTTP Request node and formats them into the required JSON structure for the final response.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. The flow would be: Webhook receives request -> HTTP Request calls external API with extracted URL -> Respond to Webhook uses the external API's response to reply to the original webhook." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON containing a GitHub Trigger node that monitors all events for the 'n8n-io\/n8n-docs' repository, using 'github_creds' and placed at [260, 410].", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"owner\": \"n8n-io\", \"events\": [\"*\"], \"repository\": \"n8n-docs\"}, \"name\": \"Github Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.githubTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [260, 410]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this n8n workflow designed. The core requirement here is pretty clear: we need to kick off a workflow whenever something happens in a specific GitHub repository.\n\nSo, first things first, what's going to initiate this whole process? The prompt explicitly mentions a \"GitHub Trigger node\" that monitors events. This immediately tells me what my starting point is. I'm going to need a node that listens for webhooks coming from GitHub.\n\nI'll search for trigger nodes related to GitHub, and yep, there's a dedicated \"GitHub Trigger\" node. This is perfect because it's built specifically for this purpose \u2013 handling incoming GitHub events. It means I don't have to deal with a generic webhook and then manually parse the payload; this node will handle a lot of that heavy lifting for me. So, I'll select the `n8n-nodes-base.githubTrigger` node. Looking at the provided JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`, which is the current stable version I'd expect.\n\nNow, where should I place it on the canvas? The prompt specifies `[260, 410]`. I'll drag and drop it right there. It's always good practice to keep things organized, especially as workflows grow.\n\nWith the node in place, let's start configuring it.\n\nIts name is \"Github Trigger\" in the JSON, which is a good descriptive name for clarity, so I'll stick with that.\n\nNext, I need to tell it *which* repository to watch. The prompt says \"'n8n-io\/n8n-docs'\". So, in the node's parameters, I'll input `n8n-io` for the \"Owner\" field and `n8n-docs` for the \"Repository\" field. This is crucial; without this, the node wouldn't know where to listen for events from.\n\nThen, the prompt specifies \"monitors all events\". This is straightforward. In the \"Events\" section of the node's configuration, there's typically an option to select specific event types (like `push`, `pull_request`, `issues`, etc.). To monitor *all* events, the most efficient way is to select the wildcard option, which is represented by `*` (an asterisk). This ensures that any type of activity in the repository will trigger the workflow.\n\nFinally, and very importantly, the node needs to authenticate with GitHub to set up the webhook and receive events securely. The prompt mentions \"using 'github_creds'\". In the credentials section of the node, I would select the pre-configured GitHub API credential, which is named `github_creds`. This credential would contain the necessary authentication tokens or details that allow n8n to communicate with GitHub on our behalf. Without proper credentials, GitHub wouldn't allow n8n to register a webhook for the repository.\n\nThere's also a `webhookId` in the JSON, `887a6b2b-dfc3-48b5-86e3-fc414613baee`. This is an internal ID that n8n generates when the workflow is activated. It's what GitHub uses to identify this specific webhook endpoint among possibly many others. It's not something I manually configure when setting up the node; it's part of n8n's backend management of the webhook.\n\nLooking at the `connections` object in the JSON, it's empty. This tells me that for the scope of this request, the GitHub Trigger node is the only piece of the workflow. If we were to do something *after* an event was received (like send a Slack message or update a database), I'd then drag a new node from this trigger node's output and configure that. But for now, just setting up the trigger is the complete task. This makes sense as the prompt only asks for the trigger node itself.\n\nSo, in summary, we have the `GitHub Trigger` node, type `n8n-nodes-base.githubTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`, positioned at `[260, 410]`. It's configured to watch the `n8n-io\/n8n-docs` repository for `*` (all) events, and it's using the `github_creds` credential for authentication. That seems to cover everything requested." } { "prompt": "Generate an active n8n workflow JSON named \"My workflow\" that starts with a POST webhook node at the path \"asaas-contaazul\" and has `templateCredsSetupCompleted` set to true in its meta data.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"httpMethod\": \"POST\", \"path\": \"asaas-contaazul\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [800, 380]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed.\n\nOkay, so the very first thing I need to establish is the overall structure and purpose of this workflow. The prompt clearly states it should be named \"My workflow\" and that it needs to be active from the get-go. So, at the top level, I'll set `\"active\": true` and `\"name\": \"My workflow\"`. This makes sure it's ready to run once deployed and easily identifiable.\n\nThen, I notice a specific metadata requirement: `templateCredsSetupCompleted` must be set to `true`. This often indicates that the workflow is considered fully configured with all necessary credentials or initial setup steps, perhaps for templating purposes. So, I'll add the `\"meta\": {\"templateCredsSetupCompleted\": true}` object at the root level of the workflow definition.\n\nNow, for the actual workflow logic. The prompt explicitly says it \"starts with a POST webhook node at the path 'asaas-contaazul'\". This is great, it tells me exactly where to begin. For any workflow that's meant to react to an external event, a Webhook node is the go-to starting point. It essentially provides an HTTP endpoint that other systems can send data to.\n\nSo, I'll add a new node to the `nodes` array. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`. This is the standard Webhook node provided by n8n. As for its `typeVersion`, the JSON specifies `2`. I'll stick with that; different versions can sometimes have subtle changes in available parameters or behavior, but for a basic POST webhook, version 2 is perfectly suitable.\n\nNow, I need to configure this Webhook node's specific parameters. The prompt is very clear: it needs to be a `POST` request and the `path` should be `\"asaas-contaazul\"`.\nSo, under the `parameters` object for this node, I'll set:\n- `\"httpMethod\": \"POST\"`: This means the webhook will only trigger if an incoming request uses the HTTP POST method. If someone tried to send a GET request, it wouldn't activate this particular workflow. This is crucial for security and data submission purposes, as POST is typically used for sending data to be processed.\n- `\"path\": \"asaas-contaazul\"`: This defines the unique part of the URL where the webhook will listen. For example, if my n8n instance is at `https:\/\/my.n8n.instance\/`, the full webhook URL might be `https:\/\/my.n8n.instance\/webhook\/asaas-contaazul`. This path makes it easy for the external system (like Asaas or Conta Azul, based on the name) to know exactly where to send their data.\n- `\"options\": {}`: This is an empty object, indicating no special options like response mode or authentication are configured for this specific webhook, which is fine for a basic setup.\n\nI'll also give it a `name`, \"Webhook\" is standard and descriptive enough for a trigger node. The `id` and `webhookId` are internal identifiers that n8n generates, so I don't actively choose those, but they'll be part of the final JSON to uniquely identify the node and its corresponding webhook endpoint. I also need to specify a `position` for visual layout on the canvas, like `[800, 380]`.\n\nSince the prompt only asks for a workflow that *starts* with this webhook node and the provided JSON only contains this single node, I don't need to consider any subsequent nodes or connections for now. This workflow is designed to simply receive data via POST to that specific path. Any further processing would involve adding more nodes after this Webhook node, connected to its output. But for now, this meets all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow titled \"GetOnboardingFile How to Use AI APIs?\".

The title \"GetOnboardingFile How to Use AI APIs?\" also needs to be applied.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Since the requirement is to \"activate via a webhook,\" the choice is straightforward.\n\n**Node 1: Webhook**\n- **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n- **Type Version:** `2`\n- **Reasoning:** A webhook is the perfect trigger for an external system or application to initiate this workflow. It provides a unique URL that can be called, putting the workflow into motion.\n- **Configuration:**\n - I'd set a `path` for the webhook. This path, like `e2e26504-97f6-4b10-b4fb-bae1c2d80923` in the JSON, makes the webhook URL unique and specific to this workflow.\n - Crucially, the `responseMode` needs to be set to `responseNode`. If it were set to `lastNode`, the webhook would respond immediately after it receives the request, before we've even had a chance to fetch the Google Doc. By choosing `responseNode`, we're telling the webhook to hold open the connection and wait for a later \"Respond to Webhook\" node to send the actual response. This is exactly what we need for our scenario, as we'll be fetching data before responding.\n - The node name would just be \"Webhook\" by default, which is perfectly fine.\n\nNow that the workflow can be triggered, the next logical step is to get the content from the Google Doc. The prompt explicitly mentions \"retrieve the content from the Google Docs URL.\"\n\n**Node 2: Google Docs**\n- **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`\n- **Type Version:** `2`\n- **Reasoning:** This is the most direct node to interact with Google Docs. We need to fetch data, so this node is the ideal candidate.\n- **Connection:** This node should connect directly from the \"Webhook\" node's \"main\" output. The data flow here is sequential: webhook triggers, then the Google Docs operation begins.\n- **Configuration:**\n - For the `operation`, we clearly need to \"get\" document content. The JSON confirms this with `operation: \"get\"`.\n - There would be a `documentURL` parameter where the specific Google Docs URL would be provided. This tells the node *which* document to retrieve.\n - This node will definitely require credentials to access Google Docs. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"googleDocsOAuth2Api\": {\"id\": \"u4aaDpAzm6YKZV9W\", \"name\": \"Google Docs account\"}}`. So, an authenticated Google Docs account would need to be linked to this node, allowing it to read the document. Without proper authentication, it wouldn't be able to access the document content.\n\nFinally, after successfully retrieving the document content, we need to send it back to the initial webhook caller.\n\n**Node 3: Respond to Webhook**\n- **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`\n- **Type Version:** `1.1`\n- **Reasoning:** As discussed with the \"Webhook\" node's `responseMode`, this is the node responsible for sending the final response back to the original request that triggered the workflow. It's the counterpart to the initial Webhook node.\n- **Connection:** This node will connect from the \"main\" output of the \"Google Docs\" node. The Google Docs node will output the retrieved document content, which we then need to use in our response.\n- **Configuration:**\n - The `respondWith` parameter should be set to `text`, as we want to send the raw document content back, not a file or JSON object, unless specified otherwise. The prompt implies just the content.\n - The `responseBody` is crucial here. We need to take the content that the \"Google Docs\" node retrieved. Typically, the Google Docs node's 'get' operation will output the document's content in a field, often named `content`. So, using an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` (as seen in the JSON) makes perfect sense. This dynamically pulls the 'content' field from the data that flowed into this node (which came from the Google Docs node) and uses it as the body of the webhook response.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps up the core logic. The workflow structure is simple and linear: trigger, fetch, respond. The `connections` ensure this sequence is maintained, with the Webhook flowing into Google Docs, and Google Docs flowing into Respond to Webhook. The `name` of the workflow, as requested, is set to \"GetOnboardingFile How to Use AI APIs?\". Any tags like \"Day 2\", \"AI Onboarding\", \"Files\", or \"Onboarding\" are just for organization within the n8n instance." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'Test workflow 2'.

The request is for an inactive n8n workflow called 'Test workflow 2', with a Manual Trigger, a Code node to modify item JSON, and specific tags.\n\nFirst things first, I'm setting up the overall workflow structure. The name is specified as \"Test workflow 2\", so that's easy to define. And it needs to be inactive, which is a simple toggle. So, I'll ensure the `active` flag is set to `false`. Looking at the JSON, indeed, `{\"name\": \"Test workflow 2\", ... \"active\": false, ...}`. That's a good start.\n\nThe request also specifies a couple of tags: 'other-tag-1' and 'other-tag-2'. Tags are great for organization and filtering workflows later, so I'll make sure those are properly attached to the workflow's metadata. The JSON confirms they are present under the `tags` array, which is perfect.\n\nNow, let's think about the actual flow of data, starting with how this workflow is going to be initiated. The prompt clearly states it should have a \"Manual Trigger node\". This is the most straightforward way to start a workflow when someone wants to run it on demand, simply by clicking a button in the n8n UI. It doesn't require any external events or schedules.\n\nSo, I'll add a Manual Trigger node. Looking at the JSON for the first node, its `type` is indeed `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is exactly what we need. The default name \"On clicking 'execute'\" is perfectly descriptive for a manual trigger, and it seems the JSON keeps that default name. There aren't any specific parameters to configure for a basic Manual Trigger; it simply starts the workflow when activated.\n\nNext, the prompt states this Manual Trigger needs to be \"connected to a Code node that adds `myNewField = 1` to each item's JSON\". This immediately tells me the next step involves custom logic to manipulate data. For that, the `Code` node is ideal. It allows executing arbitrary JavaScript code against the incoming data, giving us full control over data transformation.\n\nSo, I'll add a Code node. Checking the JSON for the second node, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.code` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the correct node type for custom scripting. The name \"Code\" is also the default, and quite fitting for this node's purpose.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Code node to achieve the specific data manipulation? The requirement is to add `myNewField = 1` to *each item's JSON*. This means I need to write a small JavaScript snippet that iterates through all the items it receives and modifies them.\n\nInside the `parameters` of this Code node, there's a `jsCode` property. This is where the custom script goes. The code provided in the JSON is:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nThis is exactly what's needed. The `$input.all()` function gives us an array of all items passed into the node. The `for...of` loop iterates through each `item` in that array. Inside the loop, `item.json.myNewField = 1;` directly accesses the `json` property of each `item` (which is where the main data payload resides) and adds a new property named `myNewField` with a value of `1`. Finally, `return $input.all();` ensures that all the modified items are passed on to any subsequent nodes in the workflow. This perfectly fulfills the requirement for the Code node.\n\nFinally, I need to ensure these two nodes are connected correctly. The prompt says the Manual Trigger is \"connected to a Code node\". In n8n, this usually means a main connection from the output of the first node to the input of the second. Looking at the `connections` object in the JSON, I see `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This confirms that the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (Manual Trigger) node is connected to the `main` input of the \"Code\" node. This establishes the correct data flow from the trigger to the data processing step." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers from a webhook at the path 'asset-search'.

Looking at the JSON, its `typeVersion` is `2`. This is a solid choice because it's the standard way to expose an HTTP endpoint in n8n.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Webhook node? The prompt specifically says the path should be `'asset-search'`. So, I'll set the `path` parameter of the Webhook node to `asset-search`. This ensures that when an external system sends a request to `your-n8n-url\/webhook\/asset-search`, this workflow will be activated.\n\nAnother crucial parameter for the Webhook node is `responseMode`. The prompt later states we need to \"respond to the original webhook by echoing all incoming items.\" This implies that the Webhook node itself shouldn't send an immediate response, but rather hand over the response responsibility to a later node in the workflow. So, for `responseMode`, I'd set it to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node to wait for a specific \"Respond to Webhook\" node further down the line to handle the HTTP response.\n\nNext up, the prompt says, \"It should pass the incoming data to a DebugHelper node.\" This is pretty straightforward. After our Webhook node receives the data, we want to inspect it or potentially add some debugging information.\n\nSo, I'll add a `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper` node. Its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is really useful for seeing what data looks like at a particular point in the workflow without interrupting the flow itself. It can also add random data for testing, which I see reflected in the JSON with `category: randomData` as one of its parameters. While the prompt just said \"pass incoming data\", the `DebugHelper` node, as configured in the JSON, would also have this `randomData` generation capability enabled. For the purpose of just passing data through to debug, it typically just takes the input and passes it along, but if the `randomData` parameter is set, it means the node is also configured to potentially *generate* data, which might be more for testing the `DebugHelper` node itself or enriching the data for subsequent debugging. However, for fulfilling \"pass the incoming data\", the primary function is to receive what the Webhook sends.\n\nThe connection here is vital: the `Webhook` node's main output should connect directly to the `DebugHelper` node's main input. This ensures that any data, headers, or query parameters received by the Webhook are handed off to the DebugHelper node for inspection.\n\nFinally, the prompt instructs us to \"respond to the original webhook by echoing all incoming items.\" This means the final step needs to send an HTTP response back to the client that triggered the webhook, and the content of that response should be whatever data has flowed through the workflow up to this point.\n\nFor this, I'll use a `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` node. The JSON shows `typeVersion` `1.1`. This node is specifically designed for sending HTTP responses when the initial Webhook node had its `responseMode` set to `responseNode`.\n\nHow do I configure it to \"echo all incoming items\"? The `respondWith` parameter is the key here. I'd set `respondWith` to `allIncomingItems`. This tells the node to take all the data items it receives as input (which, in this case, would be the data passed from the DebugHelper node, which in turn received it from the Webhook) and send them back as the HTTP response body. This perfectly fulfills the \"echo all incoming items\" requirement.\n\nThe connection for this node would be from the `DebugHelper` node's main output to the `Respond to Webhook` node's main input. This ensures that whatever data the DebugHelper node processed (which started as the webhook's payload) is now available to be echoed back.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps up the flow. We have the trigger, a step for inspection\/debugging, and then the final response back to the originating call. The execution order is standard `v1`, which means nodes run sequentially as connected." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Test workflow 2' that starts with a manual trigger node connected to a Code node.

So, that's the very first thing I'll set up, the workflow's overall name. Looking at the JSON, yes, `{\"name\": \"Test workflow 2\", ...}` perfect.\n\nNext, I see a requirement that the workflow should be inactive by default. This is important for deployment; I don't want it running until I explicitly activate it. So, I'll make sure to set the `active` property to `false` at the workflow level: `{\"active\": false, ...}`. That's a good safety measure.\n\nThen, there are some tags specified: 'other-tag-1' and 'other-tag-2'. Tags are super useful for organization and filtering, especially in a busy n8n instance. So, I'll add those to the workflow's `tags` array: `{\"tags\": [{\"name\": \"other-tag-1\", ...}, {\"name\": \"other-tag-2\", ...}], ...}`. The other fields like `createdAt` and `id` would be populated automatically by the system when the tags are truly created or associated, so I just focus on the `name`.\n\nNow, let's get into the actual nodes for the workflow logic. The prompt states it needs to \"start with a manual trigger node\". This is usually my go-to for workflows that I want to run on demand, perhaps for testing, or when a user needs to initiate it directly. It\u2019s simple, effective, and doesn't require listening for external events.\n\nSo, I'll add the first node. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and looking at the provided JSON, the `typeVersion` is `1`. That's a stable version for this trigger, so I'll stick with that. I'll give it a clear `name`, something like \"On clicking 'execute'\" or similar, which is what the JSON uses: `{\"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, ...}`. Position-wise, I'll place it towards the left of the canvas, maybe at `[360, 260]` to give some space for subsequent nodes. No specific parameters needed for a basic manual trigger, so `parameters: {}` is fine.\n\nWhat comes next? The prompt says it should be \"connected to a Code node\". A Code node is fantastic for custom logic that isn't directly available in standard nodes, or for manipulating data in very specific ways using JavaScript. In this case, the requirement is to \"add a property `myNewField` with a value of `1` to each input item,\" which is a perfect use case for a Code node.\n\nSo, I'll add a second node. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.code`, and again, the `typeVersion` is `1` according to the JSON. I'll name it simply \"Code\": `{\"name\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.code\", \"typeVersion\": 1, ...}`. I'll position it to the right of the trigger, maybe at `[580, 260]`, keeping things visually aligned.\n\nNow, for the core logic within this Code node. The JavaScript needs to iterate over all incoming items and add a new field to each of them. n8n's `$input.all()` is the perfect way to get all items passed into the node. Then, for each `item`, I need to access its `json` property, which holds the actual data payload. From there, it's a simple assignment: `item.json.myNewField = 1;`. After modifying all items, it's crucial to return them so they can be passed to the next node in the workflow, so `return $input.all();` is essential.\n\nSo the `jsCode` parameter for the Code node will be:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nThis looks solid. It directly addresses the requirement.\n\nFinally, I need to make sure these two nodes are connected. The manual trigger needs to feed into the Code node. This is a standard `main` connection. So, in the `connections` object of the workflow JSON, I'll specify that the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node's `main` output should go to the \"Code\" node's `main` input: `{\"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, ...}`. This ensures the data flow is correct: when the workflow is manually triggered, it sends its initial item (or items, if configured differently, but for a manual trigger it's typically one empty item unless previous nodes generate more) to the Code node for processing.\n\nThat seems to cover all the requirements from the prompt and aligns perfectly with the provided JSON structure. No other nodes are needed, and the setup is quite straightforward." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n ClickUp Trigger node. Configure it to listen for all ClickUp events, leaving the team and filter settings at their default empty values.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"team\": \"\", \"events\": [\"*\"], \"filters\": {}}, \"name\": \"ClickUp Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.clickUpTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [700, 250]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get into the mindset of building this workflow from the ground up, based on the user's request and the provided JSON.\n\nThe user's goal is quite specific: they want an n8n ClickUp Trigger node. They also specified how it should be configured: listening for *all* ClickUp events, and leaving the team and filter settings at their default, empty values.\n\nSo, first things first, I need a trigger node. The prompt explicitly mentions \"ClickUp Trigger node,\" which immediately tells me which type of node I'll need to use to start this workflow. This is going to be the very first, and in this case, only node in our workflow.\n\nLooking at the n8n node types, there's a dedicated `n8n-nodes-base.clickUpTrigger` node. This is perfect because it's designed specifically to integrate with ClickUp and initiate workflows based on events happening within that platform. It acts as a webhook listener or an event subscriber, which is exactly what a \"trigger\" node should do. I'd typically place it somewhere logical on the canvas, like at coordinates `[700, 250]`, which is what the JSON indicates.\n\nNow, let's think about configuring this `ClickUp Trigger` node. The prompt has three key configuration points:\n\n1. **\"Listen for all ClickUp events\"**:\n When I'm setting up a trigger like this, I'd look for an \"Events\" parameter or similar. The JSON shows `\"events\": [\"*\"]`. This is a common and intuitive way to represent \"all\" events using a wildcard. So, configuring the `events` parameter to `[\"*\"]` ensures that the node will respond to any type of event that ClickUp sends its way \u2013 whether it's a task created, a comment added, a status change, etc. If the user had wanted specific events, I would have put a list of those specific event names in this array instead of the wildcard.\n\n2. **\"Leaving the team... settings at their default empty values\"**:\n The JSON has `\"team\": \"\"`. When you're dealing with platforms like ClickUp that organize data into teams or workspaces, a trigger node often has an option to specify which team to listen to events from. The user explicitly asked for the default *empty* value. An empty string `\"\"` here signifies that no specific team ID is provided. This could mean it listens across all teams the connected ClickUp API credential has access to, or it might rely on the credential itself to define the scope. Either way, an empty string correctly fulfills the requirement of leaving it at its default, empty value.\n\n3. **\"Leaving the... filter settings at their default empty values\"**:\n Similarly, the JSON shows `\"filters\": {}`. Beyond just the event type, sometimes you want to filter events based on other criteria, like \"only trigger if the task status is 'In Progress'\" or \"only if the task is assigned to a specific user.\" These would typically be defined within a \"filters\" object. The user asked for the default, empty value. An empty object `{}` is the perfect representation for \"no filters applied.\" It means that once an event (any event, because we set `events` to `[*]`) is received, no further conditions are checked before passing it to the workflow.\n\nFinally, every node that interacts with an external service needs credentials. For a `ClickUp Trigger` node, it obviously needs a `clickUpApi` credential. The JSON specifies `\"credentials\": {\"clickUpApi\": \"\"}`. I wouldn't put any actual sensitive information here, but I'd explain that this is where the user would link their pre-configured ClickUp API key or authentication token. This credential is what allows n8n to securely connect to their ClickUp account and set up the necessary webhooks or poll for events.\n\nThere's also `typeVersion: 1`. This is a standard part of n8n node definitions. It simply indicates which version of the node's internal logic and structure is being used. It's important for ensuring compatibility and consistent behavior, especially as nodes get updated with new features or bug fixes.\n\nSince this is just a trigger node, it's the start of a workflow and doesn't connect *from* anything else. Therefore, the `connections` object in the JSON is empty, which is completely expected. If we were to build further, we'd add more nodes and connect them *to* the output of this trigger. But for now, a single, self-contained trigger node is all that's required." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named \"My workflow\" (ID '1') that starts with a Schedule Trigger (empty interval), followed sequentially by a \"Set\" node and a \"Set1\" node, both configured to set an empty string for a parameter named \"other\".

The request is pretty clear about the sequence and configuration, which helps a lot in laying out the initial structure.\n\nFirst off, I need to make sure the overall workflow settings are correct. The user wants it named \"My workflow\" and assigned an ID of '1'. Crucially, it needs to be *inactive* when generated. So, I'll set the `active` property to `false` right from the start.\n\nNow, for the nodes themselves, let's think about the flow.\n\nThe prompt specifies that the workflow \"starts with a Schedule Trigger\". This is a fundamental node for any workflow that needs to run periodically or be initiated directly within n8n. It doesn't need external webhooks or manual execution from outside the system. So, the first node I'll add is indeed a **Schedule Trigger** node.\n\n* Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1`.\n* I'll name it \"Schedule Trigger\", as requested.\n* Regarding its configuration, the prompt states it should have an \"empty interval\". Looking at the JSON, this translates to setting the `rule` parameter to `{\"interval\": [{}]}`. This specific configuration usually means the trigger is set up for a single, immediate execution when the workflow is activated and run, or it allows for manual triggering without a recurring schedule. It perfectly matches the \"empty interval\" instruction.\n* Now, a crucial part of the request is to include mock output data for this \"Schedule Trigger\" node. This data isn't something the node naturally generates in this format; rather, it's data that will be \"fed\" into the workflow when it's executed, perhaps for testing or simulation purposes. So, I'll add the `pinData` section specifically for this node. It needs two items:\n * The first item will have several properties: `count`, `with space`, `with.dot`, and `with\"quotes`. I'll assign some mock values to these, like `0`, `!!`, `!!`, and `!!` respectively, as seen in the JSON. This demonstrates handling varied property names, including those with spaces, dots, and quotes, which is a good test for data passing.\n * The second item is simpler, just a `count` property, which I'll set to `1`. This provides a distinct second item for the mock data.\n\nNext in the sequence, the prompt says it's \"followed sequentially by a \"Set\" node\". A \"Set\" node is incredibly versatile. It allows me to define, modify, or remove data fields on items as they pass through the workflow. This is ideal when I need to ensure specific data structures or default values are present for downstream nodes.\n\n* So, I'll add a **Set** node.\n* Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.set`.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1`.\n* I'll name it \"Set\".\n* The configuration for this node is straightforward: \"set an empty string for a parameter named \"other\"\". This means within its `parameters`, I'll specify `values.string` to contain an object `{\"name\": \"other\", \"value\": \"\"}`. This ensures that regardless of what data comes from the \"Schedule Trigger\", each item will now consistently have an \"other\" field with an empty string.\n\nFollowing the \"Set\" node, the prompt indicates \"and a \"Set1\" node, both configured to set an empty string for a parameter named \"other\"\". This is essentially the same operation as the previous \"Set\" node but as a distinct, separate step. While it could theoretically be combined with the first \"Set\" node if they were doing the exact same thing to the *same data*, having a separate node as \"Set1\" suggests a distinct logical step or perhaps a placeholder for future, more complex transformations.\n\n* So, I'll add another **Set** node.\n* Its `type` will also be `n8n-nodes-base.set`.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1`.\n* I'll name it \"Set1\".\n* And just like \"Set\", its `parameters` will be configured to set `{\"name\": \"other\", \"value\": \"\"}` as an empty string within the `values.string` property.\n\nFinally, I need to establish the connections between these nodes to ensure the data flows correctly in the specified sequence.\n\n* The `Schedule Trigger`'s `main` output will connect to the `Set` node's `main` input. This ensures that the mock data from the trigger (or real data, if it were active) goes directly to the first \"Set\" operation.\n* Then, the `Set` node's `main` output will connect to the `Set1` node's `main` input. This completes the linear flow, ensuring the data items are processed sequentially by both \"Set\" nodes.\n\nI'll also make sure to set the `position` coordinates for each node. These are just for visual layout in the n8n editor, ensuring they are arranged logically on the canvas. The other metadata fields like `versionId` and `meta` are typically system-generated or for internal tracking, so I'll include them as per the provided JSON structure to complete the workflow definition.

The goal is pretty clear: we need to respond to a webhook by fetching content from a Google Doc and then sending that content back.\n\nThe very first thing we'll need, naturally, is something to listen for an incoming request. That's the trigger for our workflow. So, I'll start by adding a **Webhook** node. This is a standard trigger in n8n, perfect for initiating a workflow from an external system. Looking at the existing setup, this would be of `type: n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and it's using `typeVersion: 2`.\n\nNow, when setting up this Webhook node, I need to consider how it will respond. The prompt says we need to respond *with the fetched content*, which means the response won't be immediate from the Webhook node itself. It needs to wait for subsequent operations. So, in the webhook's parameters, I'd set its `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells n8n, \"Hey, another node down the line is going to handle the actual response.\" If I were to set it to 'onReceived', it would respond immediately, which isn't what we want here. There's also a `path` parameter here, which essentially defines the unique endpoint for this particular webhook, but its specific value isn't something I'd manually input; n8n usually generates this or allows for custom definitions.\n\nOnce the webhook receives a request, the next logical step, according to the prompt, is to \"retrieve content from the Google Docs URL\". For this, we'll definitely need a **Google Docs** node. This is the perfect tool for interacting with Google Docs files. Based on the workflow, it's `type: n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion: 2`.\n\nI'll connect the `main` output of the Webhook node to the `main` input of this Google Docs node. This ensures that when the webhook is triggered, the execution flows directly into attempting to retrieve the document.\n\nConfiguring the Google Docs node is straightforward for this task. We want to *get* content from a document, so the `operation` parameter will be set to `get`. And of course, there's a `documentURL` parameter where the specific Google Docs URL would be configured. It's crucial that this URL points to a publicly accessible document or that the connected Google Docs credentials (which would be provided separately, not directly in the workflow JSON, but linked to it) have the necessary permissions to access the document. For this specific workflow, the JSON shows `credentials: googleDocsOAuth2Api`, meaning it relies on an OAuth2 connection to Google Docs, which is the standard secure way to handle authentication. This node will output the document's content, typically as a property like `content` in the output JSON.\n\nFinally, after we've successfully retrieved the content from Google Docs, we need to \"respond to the webhook with the fetched content\". This brings us to the last node in our chain: the **Respond to Webhook** node. This node is essential because we previously set the initial Webhook node's `responseMode` to `responseNode`. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion: 1.1`.\n\nI'll connect the `main` output of the Google Docs node to the `main` input of the Respond to Webhook node. This ensures that the data (including the fetched Google Docs content) flows from the Google Docs node directly into the response node.\n\nFor its configuration, we need to tell it what to respond with. The prompt asks for the \"fetched content\". So, I'd set `respondWith` to `text` since it's document content we're expecting. And for the `responseBody` parameter, I'll use an expression to pull the `content` property from the previous Google Docs node's output. The common way to do this in n8n is `={{ $json.content }}`. This assumes the Google Docs node successfully extracts the document's text into an item property named `content`.\n\nAnd that's it for the core logic. The workflow's overall settings would also include things like its `name` (\"GetOnboardingFile How Does AI Work?\") and importantly, the `tags` specified in the prompt: \"AI Onboarding\", \"Day1\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding\".

This makes perfect sense. `getAllPeople` is the operation to fetch customer records, and setting the `limit` to 10 ensures I retrieve no more than the requested number of entries. This prevents pulling an excessive amount of data if the datastore were very large, making the workflow more efficient and adhering to the prompt's requirements.\n\nFinally, the prompt states the workflow \"subsequently uses a 'Set' node to add a number field `objectValue.prop1` with value 123 and a string field `objectValue.prop2` with value 'someText', using dot notation.\" So, the final node in this sequence will be an **n8n-nodes-base.set** node. This is a very versatile node type, ideal for adding, modifying, or removing fields from the incoming data. Its `typeVersion` is 1. I'll connect the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node's main output to this `Set` node's main input, so that the retrieved customer data can flow into it.\n\nNow for the configuration of this `Set` node. The core requirement here is to add two specific fields with dot notation. The JSON shows the `parameters` block for the `Set` node has a `values` object, which contains `number` and `string` arrays.\nFor the number field, it specifies `name: \"objectValue.prop1\"` and `value: 123`. This precisely matches the prompt's requirement to add `objectValue.prop1` with a numeric value of 123.\nFor the string field, it specifies `name: \"objectValue.prop2\"` and `value: \"someText\"`. This also perfectly aligns with the prompt's requirement for `objectValue.prop2` with a string value of 'someText'.\nThe crucial part for dot notation is within the `options` object, where `dotNotation` is set to `true`. This option is absolutely essential here, as it tells the Set node to interpret `objectValue.prop1` and `objectValue.prop2` not as literal field names, but as paths to create nested objects and properties within the existing data structure for each item that flows into it. If `dotNotation` were false, it would simply add top-level fields named \"objectValue.prop1\" and \"objectValue.prop2\", which is not what the prompt asks for.\n\nSo, the workflow structure is quite straightforward: Trigger -> Get Customers -> Set Data. Each node flows directly into the next, passing the data along for subsequent processing. This seems to cover all aspects of the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that is manually triggered and then sets a 'body' field to an XML string containing information about a library with multiple books.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [420, 220]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fields\": {\"values\": [{\"name\": \"body\", \"stringValue\": \"<?xml version=\\\"1.0\\\" encoding=\\\"UTF-8\\\"?> <library> <book> <title>Introduction to XML<\/title> <author>John Doe<\/author> <publication_year>2020<\/publication_year> <isbn>1234567890<\/isbn> <\/book> <book> <title>Data Science Basics<\/title> <author>Jane Smith<\/author> <publication_year>2019<\/publication_year> <isbn>0987654321<\/isbn> <\/book> <book> <title>Programming in Python<\/title> <author>Bob Johnson<\/author> <publication_year>2021<\/publication_year> <isbn>5432109876<\/isbn> <\/book> <\/library>\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.2, \"position\": [640, 220]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow. The request is quite specific: a manually triggered workflow that then sets a 'body' field with an XML string about a library.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly states \"manually triggered.\" So, the most straightforward choice for that is definitely a **Manual Trigger** node. I'll pick the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. Looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`, which is the standard manual trigger. This is perfect because it means someone has to actively click a button to start the workflow, fulfilling that initial requirement. It doesn't have any special parameters to configure, which keeps it simple \u2013 just its existence makes it work as the entry point.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, we need to achieve the second part of the request: \"sets a 'body' field to an XML string\". This implies we need to manipulate the data that's flowing through the workflow. We're not sending data somewhere else yet, just preparing it. For adding or modifying data fields within the workflow item itself, the **Set** node is ideal. It's designed exactly for this purpose \u2013 to define new fields or overwrite existing ones with static values, expressions, or even complex data structures.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Set** node, which is `n8n-nodes-base.set` in the JSON, with `typeVersion: 3.2`. This is a common and versatile node for data manipulation.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The output of the \"Manual Trigger\" needs to feed into the \"Set\" node. The manual trigger essentially sends an empty item (or items, depending on its internal logic, but for a simple trigger it's often one empty item) to the next node to kick things off. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"Manual Trigger\" node to the `main` input of the \"Set\" node. This ensures that when the trigger fires, the data (even if it's just a blank slate initially) flows directly to our Set node.\n\nWithin the \"Set\" node, we need to configure it to create a field named 'body' and assign our XML string to it. Looking at the JSON, under `parameters.fields.values`, there's an entry for `name: \"body\"` and `stringValue` which contains the XML. This is exactly what we need. The XML provided describes a `library` root element, and inside it, multiple `book` elements, each with `title`, `author`, `publication_year`, and `isbn`. This perfectly matches the requirement of \"an XML string containing information about a library with multiple books.\" The `stringValue` option ensures that the entire XML content is treated as a single string and assigned to the 'body' field. This is simpler than trying to build the XML dynamically unless there was a specific need for templating or pulling data from elsewhere. For a static XML string, `stringValue` is the most direct approach.\n\nAnd that's pretty much it for this workflow! The manual trigger starts it, and the Set node then immediately creates the specified XML `body` field. The workflow will complete after the Set node has done its job, and the output will contain that `body` field." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that uses a Manual Trigger to send a Mandrill email.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to manually kick off an email send using Mandrill, with specific sender, recipient, and template details.\n\nFirst off, when I'm thinking about any n8n workflow, the very first thing I consider is how it's going to *start*. The prompt explicitly states \"Manual Trigger.\" That makes the initial choice extremely simple.\n\nSo, the first node I'd reach for would be the **Manual Trigger** node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`.\n* The `typeVersion` is 1, which is common for these fundamental nodes, suggesting it's quite stable in its core functionality.\n* Why this one? Well, it's exactly what it sounds like. It allows a user to initiate the workflow by simply clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n interface. It's perfect for testing, one-off tasks, or scenarios where you don't need an automatic trigger like a schedule or a webhook.\n* Looking at its `parameters` in the JSON, it's an empty object. This is typical for a basic manual trigger; it doesn't usually require any specific configuration unless you wanted it to output some initial data, which isn't the case here. It simply serves as the starting point, passing control to the next node when executed.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next logical step is to perform the action it's supposed to initiate: sending a Mandrill email. This immediately tells me I need an integration with Mandrill.\n\nSo, I'd bring in the **Mandrill** node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.mandrill`.\n* It also has a `typeVersion` of 1. Again, this points to a generally stable and well-defined set of functionalities for interacting with Mandrill.\n* Why this node? It's the dedicated n8n node for Mandrill. It abstracts away the complexities of interacting with the Mandrill API directly, like forming HTTP requests and handling authentication headers. It provides a user-friendly interface to configure email sending parameters. If this node didn't exist, I'd have to consider a generic HTTP Request node, but that would be far more work and less robust.\n\nWith both nodes on the canvas, I need to connect them to define the flow of execution. The manual trigger should lead directly to sending the email.\n* I'd draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (Manual Trigger) node to the `main` input of the \"Mandrill\" node.\n* This connection basically tells n8n: \"Once the manual trigger is activated, proceed to execute the Mandrill node.\" The manual trigger node doesn't pass any specific data that the Mandrill node *needs* for its core operation; it's purely about flow control in this instance.\n\nFinally, the most crucial part: configuring the Mandrill node to send the correct email. The prompt gives us all the necessary details.\n* First, for authentication, the prompt specifies \"utilize 'mandrill_creds' for authentication.\" This means under the `credentials` object of the Mandrill node, I'd set the `mandrillApi` property to `mandrill_creds`. This isn't the actual API key itself, but rather a reference to a pre-saved credential in n8n. This credential would securely store the necessary authentication details, like an API key, allowing the workflow to connect to Mandrill without exposing sensitive information directly in the workflow definition. It's good practice for security and manageability.\n* Next, for the email details themselves, these go into the `parameters` of the Mandrill node:\n * The prompt says \"The email should use the 'welcomeemailv2' template.\" So, I'd set the `template` parameter to `welcomeemailv2`. This tells Mandrill which specific template to render for the outgoing email.\n * It also specifies \"be sent to 'user@example.com'.\" This directly corresponds to the `toEmail` parameter, which I'd set to `user@example.com`. This is the recipient's email address.\n * And lastly, \"from 'example@yourdomain.com'.\" This maps perfectly to the `fromEmail` parameter, so I'd configure that as `example@yourdomain.com`. This will be the sender's email address that recipients see.\n * The `options` parameter is present but empty. This indicates that no additional Mandrill-specific sending options, such as tags, metadata, or whether to send asynchronously, are being configured for this particular email. The current configuration is straightforward and meets all the prompt's requirements.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps it up. The workflow is designed to simply trigger an email send with pre-defined parameters. It's a very common and efficient pattern for sending templated transactional emails." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile Collect job requests & fill in CRM\" that triggers via a webhook at the path \"CollectJobRequestsAndFillInCRM\".

The main goal here is to create a workflow that gets triggered by a webhook, reads a Google Doc, and then sends the content of that document back as the webhook's response. It also needs a specific name and some tags.\n\nFirst things first, how does this workflow even start? The prompt clearly states it \"triggers via a webhook.\" So, my very first node absolutely has to be a Webhook node. This is the entry point, the listener that will kick off the entire process when an external system sends it a request.\n\nSo, I'll add a `Webhook` node. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and the `typeVersion` is `2`. This node is perfect because it waits for incoming HTTP requests and then passes the data from those requests down the workflow.\n\nNow, I need to configure this Webhook node. The prompt specifies the path: \"CollectJobRequestsAndFillInCRM\". So, I'll set the `path` parameter to that exact string. This ensures the webhook only responds when a request comes to that specific endpoint. As for the `responseMode`, it's set to `responseNode`. This is important because it means the webhook won't respond immediately. Instead, it will wait for a later node in the workflow to explicitly send a response, which is exactly what we need since we'll be fetching content *after* the trigger and then responding with that content.\n\nAlright, the workflow is triggered. What's next? The prompt states, \"It should then read the content of a specified Google Doc.\" This immediately tells me I'm going to need a node that can interact with Google Docs. n8n has a dedicated `Google Docs` node, which is perfect for this.\n\nSo, I'll connect the `Webhook` node's main output to the input of a `Google Docs` node. This connection ensures that once the webhook is triggered, the workflow execution flows directly into reading the document. The `Google Docs` node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and its `typeVersion` is `2`.\n\nNow, how do I configure this `Google Docs` node? The goal is to *read* content, so the `operation` parameter should definitely be set to `get`. This tells the node we want to retrieve information from a document. It also needs to know *which* document to read. There would be a `documentURL` parameter where a specific Google Doc URL would be provided. For this to work, the node also requires credentials. It would be configured with a Google Docs OAuth2 API credential, allowing it to authenticate and access the document on behalf of the user.\n\nOkay, so we've triggered the workflow, and we've read the content of the Google Doc. What's the final piece of the puzzle? The prompt says, \"and return that content as the webhook's response.\" This is crucial. We can't just end the workflow here; the `Webhook` node is waiting for an explicit response because we set its `responseMode` to `responseNode`.\n\nThis means I need a node specifically designed to send a response back to the waiting webhook. The `Respond to Webhook` node is the ideal choice for this.\n\nSo, I'll connect the `Google Docs` node's main output to the input of a `Respond to Webhook` node. This ensures that after the Google Doc content is retrieved, it's passed directly to the node responsible for sending the response. The `Respond to Webhook` node has a `type` of `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and a `typeVersion` of `1.1`.\n\nNow, for configuring the `Respond to Webhook` node. The prompt specifies returning the *content* of the Google Doc. The `Google Docs` node, when performing a `get` operation, typically outputs the document content in a field like `content` or `text` within its JSON output. So, for `respondWith`, I'd select `text`, as the output is text-based. Then, for the `responseBody` parameter, I'd use an expression to grab that content from the previous node. The expression would look something like `={{ $json.content }}`, assuming the Google Docs node places the document's text into a field named `content`. This expression dynamically pulls the content from the data passed by the `Google Docs` node and sends it back as the webhook's response.\n\nFinally, at the workflow level, I need to make sure the workflow itself has the correct name and tags. The name is \"GetOnboardingFile Collect job requests & fill in CRM\". And the tags specified are 'Lg', 'Day5', 'Files', 'Onboarding'. These are metadata for organizing the workflow within n8n.\n\nAnd that's it. The webhook listens, the Google Docs node fetches the content, and the respond node sends that content back. The data flows sequentially from the webhook to the Google Docs node, and then the content from the Google Docs node is used by the Respond to Webhook node." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Webhook wait set' that starts with a Webhook, waits for 2 seconds using a Wait node, and then connects to a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Webhook wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [940, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start designing this n8n workflow. The request is to create a workflow named \"Webhook wait set\" that initiates with a Webhook, introduces a 2-second delay using a Wait node, and then flows into a Set node.\n\nFirst, I always look at the overall goal and the name. The workflow is clearly named \"Webhook wait set,\" which is excellent and matches the requirement. It helps set the stage for what this workflow intends to do.\n\nNow, let's think about the starting point. The prompt explicitly states it \"starts with a Webhook.\" So, naturally, the very first node I need to add is a Webhook node.\nLooking at the JSON, I see `{\"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, ...}`. This confirms my initial thought.\nThe `Webhook` node (type `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, typeVersion 1) is perfect for starting a workflow based on an external trigger, like an HTTP request. It's the standard entry point for many event-driven workflows in n8n. In terms of configuration, I see it has a `path` parameter. This path is crucial because it defines the unique URL where the webhook will listen for incoming requests. The actual value is a unique ID, which is fine; it's dynamically generated and ensures a unique endpoint. There are also `options`, but they are empty, which means we're not setting any specific HTTP method restrictions or authentication for this basic setup. For a simple trigger, this is exactly what I'd expect.\n\nNext, the prompt says it \"waits for 2 seconds using a Wait node.\" So, after the Webhook successfully receives a request, the workflow needs to pause. For this, the `Wait` node is the ideal choice.\nChecking the JSON, I see `{\"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, ...}`. This is exactly the node I'd pick.\nThe `Wait` node (type `n8n-nodes-base.wait`, typeVersion 1) is specifically designed to introduce a delay in the workflow's execution. Looking at its parameters, it has `amount` set to `2` and `unit` set to `seconds`. This perfectly matches the requirement of waiting for \"2 seconds.\" This configuration is very straightforward and achieves the desired delay without any complex logic.\n\nFinally, the prompt states it \"then connects to a Set node.\" After the wait period, the workflow needs to proceed to the final step, which is a `Set` node.\nIn the JSON, I find `{\"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, ...}`. This is the correct node.\nThe `Set` node (type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, typeVersion 1) is incredibly versatile. Its primary purpose is to add, modify, or remove data fields on the incoming items. Even if it's not adding any specific fields in this particular instance (the `options` are empty), it's often used as a final processing step or a placeholder for future data manipulation. It's a good generic \"end-of-processing\" node when you just want to ensure the data flows through.\n\nNow, let's consider the connections between these nodes, which are just as important as the nodes themselves.\nThe JSON's `connections` object shows:\n`\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This means the `main` output of the `Webhook` node connects to the `main` input of the `Wait` node. This is exactly how I'd link them: when the webhook receives data, it passes that data directly to the wait node. This forms the sequential flow.\nAnd then:\n`\"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This indicates that the `main` output of the `Wait` node connects to the `main` input of the `Set` node. Once the 2-second wait is over, the `Wait` node automatically passes the original data (or whatever it received from the Webhook) to the `Set` node. This completes the linear flow specified by the prompt: Webhook -> Wait -> Set.\n\nThe `active` property is set to `false`, meaning the workflow isn't currently active or listening for triggers, which is typical for a newly designed or exported workflow. The `settings` are empty, indicating no special global workflow settings are applied.\nThis seems like a complete and correct implementation based on the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow starting with a manual trigger node connected sequentially to two 'Set' nodes, named 'Edit Fields' and 'Edit Fields1'.

Looking at the requirements, the user specifically asked for a \"manual trigger node.\" This is perfect for when you want to kick off a workflow simply by clicking a button in the n8n editor, or manually testing it. So, I'll definitely start with the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which is the standard version for this node, providing basic manual execution capabilities. This node doesn't really need any specific parameters, it just initiates the workflow run.\n\nNext, the prompt states we need two 'Set' nodes connected sequentially after the manual trigger. The first one is named 'Edit Fields'. A 'Set' node is incredibly useful because it allows you to manipulate data coming from previous nodes, adding new fields, renaming existing ones, or removing them entirely. It's a fundamental data transformation tool. So, after the manual trigger, the logical step is to connect its main output to the input of our `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, named 'Edit Fields'. This node has `typeVersion: 3.2`. The specific `typeVersion` doesn't change its core purpose, but it might include minor improvements or additional options over older versions. For this node, the `parameters` block shows just an empty `options` object, meaning no specific fields are being set or modified at this point, but it's ready to be configured if we decide to add, for instance, a new field called 'status' with a value like 'processed'.\n\nFollowing the sequential requirement, the second 'Set' node, named 'Edit Fields1', should come right after 'Edit Fields'. So, the output from 'Edit Fields' will feed directly into the input of this new `n8n-nodes-base.set` node. This will allow any data transformations from 'Edit Fields' to be passed along to 'Edit Fields1', where further data manipulation can occur. This node also uses `typeVersion: 3.2`, just like the previous one. Again, it has an empty `options` object, indicating it's a placeholder for potential data transformations that we might define later, perhaps to add another field or change the format of an existing one. The data flow here is straightforward: the trigger starts it, 'Edit Fields' processes some initial data (or passes it through), and then 'Edit Fields1' takes that processed data for its own set of operations.\n\nFinally, the prompt also mentioned two disconnected nodes: 'Unknown node 1' and 'Unknown node 2'. These are interesting because they're given specific, non-standard types: `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist` for 'Unknown node 1' and `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither` for 'Unknown node 2'. This implies they are not standard, recognizable n8n node types, and are likely placeholders or represent nodes that might be custom-built or for a specific, perhaps future, purpose. Since the prompt explicitly states they are \"disconnected,\" I will place them on the canvas without any incoming or outgoing connections. Their `typeVersion` is `1` for both, which is typical for custom or unverified node types. They serve no functional purpose in the current workflow flow, but they are part of the overall structure as requested. They just sit there, not affecting the data path from the manual trigger through the two Set nodes." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"Bubble Data Access\" that starts with a manual trigger.

This node is really straightforward; it doesn't need any specific parameters configured for its basic operation, as its purpose is simply to start the workflow when an operator clicks 'execute'.

It's designed to interact with web services and APIs. So, I'll bring in a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`, also using `typeVersion: 1`. I'll position it just after our trigger, maybe at [450, 300], to clearly show the sequence.\n\nNow, we need to connect these two nodes. The `manualTrigger` is the starting point, and its output should feed directly into the `httpRequest` node. This connection ensures that once the manual trigger fires, the HTTP request is the very next action taken. So, I'll draw a main connection from the 'On clicking 'execute'' node to the 'HTTP Request' node. This will pass an empty item from the trigger to the HTTP Request, signaling it to execute.\n\nWith the nodes in place and connected, it's time to configure the `httpRequest` node. This is where the specifics of the API call come in.\n\nThe prompt specifies a URL: `https:\/\/n8n-lessons.bubbleapps.io\/version-test\/api\/1.1\/obj\/user`. So, in the parameters of our `httpRequest` node, I'll set the `url` field to this particular API endpoint. This tells the node exactly where to send its request.\n\nCrucially, the prompt also mentions authentication: \"authenticated via headers using the credential 'Bubble n8n Lessons Token'.\" This means we need to ensure our request includes the necessary authentication information in the HTTP headers. Within the `httpRequest` node's parameters, there's an `authentication` setting. I'll set this to `\"headerAuth\"`. This tells n8n that we'll be using a credential that adds a specific header for authentication.\n\nAnd speaking of credentials, the prompt specifies using a pre-existing credential. So, under the `credentials` section for this `httpRequest` node, I'll link it to a pre-configured header authentication credential. This specific credential would contain the actual API key or token required by the Bubble API, but we'll refer to it generically here as a \"Bubble n8n Lessons Token\" which acts as a pointer to the stored secure information. We don't want to embed the actual sensitive value directly in the workflow itself, relying on n8n's secure credential management system.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The workflow is designed to start on demand, reach out to the specified Bubble API endpoint, and correctly authenticate itself using header-based authentication through a securely stored credential." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named \"My workflow 8\" that starts with a \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" trigger.

The first thing I notice is the overall goal: create an inactive workflow named \"My workflow 8\". So, I'll make sure the workflow's `name` property is set to \"My workflow 8\" and, crucially, that its `active` status is `false`. This means it won't run automatically; it'll need to be manually triggered or activated later if desired.\n\nNow, onto the actual execution flow. Every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states it should start with a \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" trigger. This immediately tells me I need a `manualTrigger` node. Looking at the JSON, I see `{\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1}`. This is perfect for what's requested. It's a simple, straightforward way to initiate a workflow, especially useful during development and testing, or when you just want to run it on demand. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters; its purpose is solely to act as a manual start button. So, I'll place this node first in our canvas.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, what's the next step? The prompt says it connects to a \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node configured to \"getAllPeople\" with a limit of 10. For this, I'll search for a node that can interact with a customer datastore specifically for training purposes. The JSON provides `{\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\", \"typeVersion\": 1}`. This node type is exactly what we need, designed for that particular training environment. It also specifies `typeVersion: 1`, which means we're using that specific iteration of the node's functionality. I'll connect the `manualTrigger` node's main output to the input of this \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node.\n\nNow, for its configuration. The prompt requires \"getAllPeople\" and a \"limit of 10\". So, within this \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node, I'll set its `operation` parameter to `getAllPeople`. This operation is designed to retrieve multiple records from the datastore. To refine this, I also need to apply the specified limit. So, I'll add a `limit` parameter and set its value to `10`. This ensures that we only fetch the first ten people records, which is efficient if we don't need all available data. This node will then pass on these up to ten customer records to the next stage of our workflow.\n\nFinally, the prompt says this \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node then connects to a \"Set\" node. The purpose of this `Set` node is to add specific properties: a number `objectValue.prop1` with a value of 123, and a string `objectValue.prop2` with a value of \"someText\", with dot notation enabled. The `Set` node, identified as `{\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1}` in the JSON, is the perfect choice for this task. Its primary function is to add or modify data fields on incoming items.\n\nI'll connect the main output of the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node to the input of this `Set` node. Now, for the `Set` node's configuration:\nFirst, I need to add the number property. In the `values` parameter, under `number`, I'll define an entry where `name` is `objectValue.prop1` and `value` is `123`.\nSecond, for the string property, also under `values`, but this time under `string`, I'll add an entry where `name` is `objectValue.prop2` and `value` is `\"someText\"`.\nThe crucial part here is the \"dot notation enabled\" requirement. This is handled in the `options` parameter within the `Set` node. I'll make sure to set `dotNotation` to `true`. This allows n8n to interpret `objectValue.prop1` and `objectValue.prop2` as nested properties within a new `objectValue` object, rather than creating flat keys with dots in their names. This is exactly how you'd construct complex data structures dynamically.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the prompt. We have our manual trigger, data retrieval from a specific training datastore with a limit, and then the addition of new, nested properties to each item using the Set node with dot notation. The overall workflow remains inactive as specified." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a \"When chat message received\" trigger.

Looking at the prompt, it specifically asks for a \"When chat message received\" trigger. This makes sense for a workflow that's intended to respond to or process incoming chat messages. So, I'll start by adding that.\n\nI'm looking for a node of type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger`. The JSON specifies `typeVersion: 1.1`, which is the version I'll use. I'll place it at `[320, -380]` on the canvas. This node is perfect because it's designed to listen for and initiate a workflow whenever a new chat message comes in, which directly aligns with the starting point described. For its configuration, the parameters just show empty `options`, indicating no special settings are needed beyond its default listening behavior for this use case.\n\nOnce a chat message is received, the prompt says the workflow should then connect to a \"Set\" node named \"Node 1\". This \"Set\" node's job is to define specific data that will be passed along in the workflow. It's really useful for introducing new data or transforming existing data into a specific structure.\n\nSo, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.set`. The `typeVersion` is `3.4`, which is good to note, as different versions can sometimes have slightly different parameter structures or behaviors. I'll name it \"Node 1\" as per the instructions and position it at `[580, -380]`.\n\nNow, how does it connect? The \"When chat message received\" node's main output should connect to \"Node 1\"'s main input. This ensures that when the trigger fires, the execution flow moves directly to \"Node 1\".\n\nFor the configuration of \"Node 1\", the prompt and JSON specify that it should output `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`. So, I'll set its \"Mode\" parameter to \"raw\" and then paste this JSON directly into the `jsonOutput` field. This tells the Set node to simply create a new item with exactly this JSON structure and content as its output. This is a straightforward way to inject a predefined set of data into the workflow at this stage.\n\nAfter \"Node 1\", the prompt indicates another \"Set\" node, named \"Node 2\", should follow. This suggests a sequential process where one set of data is defined, and then another distinct set of data is added or processed.\n\nSo, I'll add another `n8n-nodes-base.set` node, again with `typeVersion: 3.4`. I'll name this one \"Node 2\" and place it at `[780, -380]`.\n\nThe connection for \"Node 2\" will come from \"Node 1\". The main output of \"Node 1\" needs to connect to the main input of \"Node 2\". This way, the data created by \"Node 1\" will be passed as input to \"Node 2\".\n\nFinally, for \"Node 2\"'s configuration, the prompt states it should output `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`. Similar to \"Node 1\", I'll configure its \"Mode\" parameter to \"raw\" and then input this specific JSON into the `jsonOutput` field. This means \"Node 2\" will take whatever input it receives from \"Node 1\" and then *add* or *overwrite* its own defined output data. Since it's a \"Set\" node in raw mode, it will essentially create a *new* item or merge its output into the existing item, depending on how n8n handles the `jsonOutput` in `set` nodes. In this case, it will likely add these new fields to the existing item or create a new item with these fields, effectively enriching the data as it flows through the workflow." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, downloads the image from `https:\/\/docs.n8n.io\/assets\/img\/n8n-logo.png`, and saves it as a binary file to `\/Users\/tanay\/Desktop\/n8n-logo.png`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [260, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/docs.n8n.io\/assets\/img\/n8n-logo.png\", \"options\": {}, \"responseFormat\": \"file\"}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"\/Users\/tanay\/Desktop\/n8n-logo.png\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [660, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this n8n workflow from the ground up, thinking through each step.\n\nThe user's goal is pretty clear: we need to manually trigger a workflow, download an image from a specific URL, and then save that image as a binary file to a particular location on the desktop.\n\nSo, the very first thing we need is a way to kick off this whole process. Since the requirement is \"manually triggers,\" the most straightforward and appropriate node for that is the **Manual Trigger** node.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **TypeVersion**: 1\n\nThis node is perfect because it literally just sits there, waiting for someone to click the \"Execute Workflow\" button (or the equivalent in the UI). It doesn't require any special configuration beyond simply adding it to the canvas. Its purpose is purely to initiate the workflow flow, sending a single item to the next node to get things going. There's no data coming *into* it, and it sends a simple, empty item *out* to signal the start. For a basic manual start, version 1 is completely sufficient and robust.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's the very next step? We need to \"download the image from `https:\/\/docs.n8n.io\/assets\/img\/n8n-logo.png`.\" To fetch data from a web address, the standard tool in n8n is the **HTTP Request** node.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`\n* **TypeVersion**: 1\n\nI'll connect the output of our \"On clicking 'execute'\" Manual Trigger node to the input of this new \"HTTP Request\" node. The Manual Trigger doesn't pass any data *for* the request itself, it just acts as a signal to tell the HTTP Request node to go ahead and do its job.\n\nWhen configuring this HTTP Request node, the most important parameter will be the URL. I'd set that to the image's URL provided in the prompt. Another crucial setting for downloading an image (which is binary data, not text or JSON) is the `responseFormat`. If I leave this as default, n8n might try to parse the image as text or JSON, which would result in corrupted data or an error. So, I need to explicitly set `responseFormat` to `file`. This tells n8n to treat the incoming response as a binary file and store it appropriately in its internal data structure, ready for the next node that can handle binary data. Since we're just downloading a direct file, there's no need for any complex options like headers, authentication, or query parameters, so I can leave the `options` field empty. Version 1 of this node handles basic GET requests and file responses perfectly.\n\nFinally, with the image downloaded as a binary file by the HTTP Request node, the last piece of the puzzle is to \"save it as a binary file to `\/Users\/tanay\/Desktop\/n8n-logo.png`.\" For writing binary data to the local file system where n8n is running, the **Write Binary File** node is exactly what we need.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile`\n* **TypeVersion**: 1\n\nI'll connect the main output of the \"HTTP Request\" node to the input of this \"Write Binary File\" node. This connection is critical because the HTTP Request node is passing the actual binary data of the downloaded image directly to the Write Binary File node.\n\nThe primary parameter to configure on the \"Write Binary File\" node is `fileName`. This is where I'd specify the complete desired path and filename, as provided in the prompt. This tells the node exactly where to save the binary data it receives. It's a straightforward operation: receive binary data, write it to the specified path. Again, version 1 is perfectly capable for this simple file write operation.\n\nSo, the flow is quite linear: Trigger -> Download -> Save. Each node handles a distinct part of the overall requirement, passing the necessary information (or just the trigger signal) to the next in sequence." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n Bitbucket Trigger node. It should be positioned at [880, 390], configured to trigger on 'repo:push' events for the 'test' repository, and utilize 'bitbucket_creds' credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"events\": [\"repo:push\"], \"resource\": \"repository\", \"repository\": \"test\"}, \"name\": \"Bitbucket Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.bitbucketTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [880, 390]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning this workflow. The primary goal here is quite clear: we need to initiate a workflow whenever a specific event occurs within Bitbucket. Specifically, we're looking for a `repo:push` event on a repository named 'test'.\n\nSo, when I think about how an n8n workflow gets started, especially from an external service, my mind immediately goes to a \"Trigger\" node. Since the trigger source is Bitbucket, the most natural and efficient choice would be the **Bitbucket Trigger** node. This node is specifically designed to integrate with Bitbucket webhooks, handling the registration and listening for events automatically. It saves a lot of manual configuration you'd have to do if you used a generic Webhook node.\n\nLet's get this node onto our canvas. The user prompt specifies its position at `[880, 390]`, so I'll place it there.\n\nNow, let's configure this **Bitbucket Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.bitbucketTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. The `typeVersion` is important because it dictates the available parameters and how the node behaves; different versions might have slightly different options or data structures. For now, we'll stick with version 1 as per the plan.\n\nLooking at the parameters, the most crucial part for a trigger node is defining *what* it should trigger on. The prompt clearly states \"trigger on 'repo:push' events\". So, within the node's parameters, under `events`, I'll select `repo:push`. This tells n8n to only activate the workflow when Bitbucket sends a webhook notification specifically for a repository push event.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions that this should be for the `'test'` repository. This is vital for filtering. If we didn't specify the repository, the trigger would fire for pushes to *any* repository the credentials have access to, which isn't what we want. So, in the node's configuration, I'll set the `resource` to `repository` and then specify the `repository` name as `'test'`. This ensures the trigger is highly specific to our 'test' repository.\n\nFinally, for any node interacting with an external service like Bitbucket, we need credentials. The prompt indicates using `'bitbucket_creds'`. This means we'll link the node's `credentials` setting to a pre-configured Bitbucket API credential set, which would contain the necessary authentication details (like an OAuth access token or username\/app password) to allow n8n to communicate with Bitbucket, register the webhook, and receive events. I wouldn't need to specify the actual token or password here, just reference the name of the credential set.\n\nThe `webhookId` that's present in the JSON is an identifier that n8n uses internally to manage the actual webhook registered on the Bitbucket side. It's usually generated when the node is first saved or activated, so I don't explicitly configure it myself when building the node; it's part of the node's operational state.\n\nAt this point, we have our single **Bitbucket Trigger** node configured precisely as required. There are no connections specified in the JSON, which implies this is the initial stage of a workflow, perhaps waiting for subsequent nodes to be added to process the data received from the Bitbucket push event. For now, it stands alone, ready to listen." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that manually triggers a Segment node to track an event.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Track an event in Segment\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"event\": \"\", \"resource\": \"track\"}, \"name\": \"Segment\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.segment\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Segment\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start building this workflow step by step, imagining I'm at the drawing board in n8n.\n\nThe user's goal is pretty clear: \"Generate an n8n workflow that manually triggers a Segment node to track an event.\" So, right off the bat, I know I'll need two core components: something to initiate the workflow manually, and a node to interact with Segment.\n\nFirst things first, to make it a *manually triggered* workflow, I need an entry point that the user can click to start the execution. Looking through the available nodes, the most appropriate choice for this is the \"Manual Trigger\" node.\n\nSo, I'd drag out a **Manual Trigger** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This is a standard trigger node, perfect for starting workflows on demand.\n* Why this node? Because it literally provides a button in the n8n UI that, when clicked, initiates the workflow's execution. It's the most straightforward way to meet the \"manually triggers\" requirement.\n* As for its configuration, the Manual Trigger node is quite simple. It doesn't typically require any specific parameters to be set for its basic function; it just exists to be clicked. Its `parameters` object is empty in the JSON, which confirms this.\n* I'll place it on the canvas, perhaps around `[250, 300]` as indicated by the JSON, just to keep things tidy and give myself room for the next node.\n\nNow that I have the trigger, the next part of the requirement is to use a \"Segment node to track an event.\" This tells me exactly what the next step should be. I need a node that can communicate with the Segment API.\n\nSo, I'd search for and add a **Segment** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.segment`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the dedicated n8n node for integrating with Segment.\n* Why this specific node? Because it abstracts away the complexities of interacting with the Segment API, providing a user-friendly interface to send various types of calls like `track`, `identify`, `page`, etc.\n* Now, I need to connect these two nodes. The `manualTrigger` node should initiate the `Segment` node's action. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (my Manual Trigger node) to the `main` input of the \"Segment\" node. The JSON confirms this connection: `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Segment\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means when the Manual Trigger fires, it passes its execution flow directly to the Segment node.\n* Next, let's configure the Segment node. The prompt specifies \"track an event.\"\n * Looking at the JSON's `parameters` for the Segment node, I see `{\"event\": \"\", \"resource\": \"track\"}`.\n * The `resource` parameter is set to `track`. This is crucial because Segment's API allows for different types of calls (like `identify` for user identification, `page` for page views, `track` for custom events). Setting it to `track` ensures that the node will attempt to send a `track` event to Segment, fulfilling the \"track an event\" part of the requirement.\n * The `event` parameter is set to an empty string (`\"\"`). This is interesting. In a typical scenario, an event would have a descriptive name, like \"Product Clicked\" or \"Checkout Completed\". Having it empty means that while the Segment node will attempt to send a `track` call, it won't actually pass a specific event name along. In a real-world use case, I would definitely fill this in with a meaningful event name, perhaps even dynamically pulled from previous nodes if there were more context, but for this specific JSON, it's an empty string. This workflow will effectively send a generic, unnamed track event.\n* Finally, for any API node like Segment, credentials are required. The JSON indicates `credentials: {\"segmentApi\": \"\"}`. This is where the necessary API key (Segment's Write Key) would be provided securely. This credential allows the n8n workflow to authenticate with and send data to your specific Segment workspace. I'd ensure that the appropriate Segment API credentials are configured here, but without specifying any actual values, of course.\n\nSo, to recap, a simple two-node workflow: `Manual Trigger` starts it, and then `Segment` node gets activated to send a `track` event (albeit without a specific event name in this case) using the provided credentials. This setup directly addresses all parts of the user's prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'Twilio:SMS:send' that sends an SMS via Twilio.

The goal here is pretty clear: send an SMS using Twilio, with a specific sender\/recipient number, and a message that includes a timestamp. Also, it needs to be an inactive workflow named 'Twilio:SMS:send'.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow generally starts with a trigger or a \"Start\" node if it's meant to be executed manually or by another workflow. In this case, since it's about sending an SMS, and there's no specific external trigger mentioned, a standard \"Start\" node is the most straightforward way to kick things off. So, I'll definitely begin with that.\n\nI'll add the **Start** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.start`, and I'll use `typeVersion: 1`. This node is really just a placeholder, a starting point. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters in this simple scenario; it just signifies where the workflow begins. It's the most basic entry point for any workflow, perfect when you want to manually test or have it initiated without a complex trigger.\n\nNext, the core of the request is sending an SMS via Twilio. This immediately tells me I'll need a Twilio node. n8n has a built-in node specifically for Twilio, which simplifies the integration process. I'll add a **Twilio** node. The type for this one will be `n8n-nodes-base.twilio`, and I'll use `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it's designed to interact directly with the Twilio API, handling all the underlying complexities of sending messages.\n\nNow, let's think about configuring this Twilio node. The prompt specifies a few key things:\n* The SMS should originate from `+15005550006`. This will map directly to the `from` parameter in the Twilio node.\n* It should be sent to `+15005550006`. This will map to the `to` parameter.\n* The message needs to dynamically include the current timestamp. This is where it gets interesting. I can use an expression for the `message` parameter. n8n's expression language allows for JavaScript-like functions. To get the current timestamp, `Date.now()` is perfect. So, the message will be something like \"Message\" followed by the current timestamp. This means the message parameter will be set to `=Message{{Date.now()}}`. The `=` signifies an expression, and `{{...}}` embeds the JavaScript expression within the string. This way, every time the workflow runs, the message will have the precise time it was sent embedded within it.\n\nFinally, for the Twilio node to actually send an SMS, it needs credentials to authenticate with the Twilio API. This workflow indicates `twilioApi` credentials are used, which would typically involve an account SID and an auth token. I won't specify the actual values here, as those are sensitive, but I know that these credentials would be pre-configured in n8n and simply referenced by the node, ensuring secure access to the Twilio service. The node uses an ID and a name to refer to these existing credentials.\n\nNow for the connections. This is a very linear workflow. The \"Start\" node simply initiates the process, and then it should immediately pass control to the \"Twilio\" node to send the SMS. So, I'll connect the \"Start\" node's main output to the \"Twilio\" node's main input. This means when the workflow starts, the data (though empty in this case from the Start node) will flow directly to the Twilio node, prompting it to execute its action. There's no complex data transformation or routing needed between these two nodes; it's a simple, direct flow.\n\nThat about covers it. We have a start point, a clear action to send an SMS, all configured with the correct parameters and secured by credentials, and a direct connection between them. The workflow is also marked as `active: false`, fulfilling the requirement for it to be inactive." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow starting with a \"When chat message received\" trigger, which then connects to a \"Set\" node named \"Node 1\" outputting `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`, and finally to another \"Set\" node named \"Node 2\" outputting `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"When chat message received\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [320, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_1\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_2\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [580, -380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"this_my_field_3\\\": \\\"value\\\",\\n \\\"this_my_field_4\\\": 1\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [780, -380]}], \"connections\": {\"When chat message received\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Node 1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Node 2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's design this n8n workflow piece by piece, thinking through each step as we build it.\n\nFirst off, the prompt specifies that the workflow needs to start with a \"When chat message received\" trigger. So, that's definitely where we'll begin.\n\nTo achieve this, I'll add a `When chat message received` node. Looking at the JSON, its type is actually `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to listen for incoming chat messages and kick off the workflow when one is detected. It's the designated entry point for any chat-based interactions in n8n. It automatically creates a webhook endpoint for itself (like the `webhookId` `4fb58136-3481-494a-a30f-d9e064dac186` seen in the JSON) which external chat platforms would use to send messages to this workflow. No specific configuration is needed for its parameters beyond the default `options`, which seem empty here, indicating it's ready to go as is.\n\nNext, the prompt states that this trigger should connect to a \"Set\" node named \"Node 1\" which needs to output specific JSON. A \"Set\" node is exactly what we need here. Its job is to create or modify data that then gets passed down the workflow. It's incredibly versatile for injecting static data or transforming existing data.\n\nSo, I'll add a `Set` node. Based on the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.4`. I'll name it \"Node 1\" as per the requirement. For its configuration, the prompt specifies it should output `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`. To achieve this, I'll set its `mode` parameter to `raw`. This allows me to paste the exact JSON structure directly. Then, in the `jsonOutput` field, I'll carefully enter `{\\n \"this_my_field_1\": \"value\",\\n \"this_my_field_2\": 1\\n}`. This ensures the node produces the exact data structure requested, which will then be available for subsequent nodes.\n\nNow, for the connection: the \"When chat message received\" trigger's output needs to flow into \"Node 1\". So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the `When chat message received` node to the `main` input of \"Node 1\". This establishes the direct, sequential execution flow.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies another \"Set\" node named \"Node 2\", which should output a different set of JSON. This again points to using another `Set` node.\n\nSo, I'll add another `Set` node. It will also be of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.4`, just like the previous one. I'll name it \"Node 2\". Its purpose is similar to \"Node 1\", but with different output data. For its configuration, I'll again set its `mode` parameter to `raw`. And in the `jsonOutput` field, I'll put `{\\n \"this_my_field_3\": \"value\",\\n \"this_my_field_4\": 1\\n}`. This ensures this second \"Set\" node generates its own specified data.\n\nTo complete the flow, \"Node 1\" needs to connect to \"Node 2\". So, I'll link the `main` output of \"Node 1\" to the `main` input of \"Node 2\". This means that after \"Node 1\" has successfully set its data, the workflow will continue its execution by running \"Node 2\", which will then set its own data, making both sets of static information available in the workflow's execution history." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that reads `spreadsheet.xls`, processes the file as a spreadsheet, and then inserts the extracted data into the `product` PostgreSQL table, mapping to `name` and `ean` columns.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"filePath\": \"spreadsheet.xls\"}, \"name\": \"Read Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 650]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Spreadsheet File1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 650]}, {\"parameters\": {\"table\": \"product\", \"columns\": \"name,ean\"}, \"name\": \"Insert Rows1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.postgres\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [750, 650]}], \"connections\": {\"Read Binary File\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Spreadsheet File1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Spreadsheet File1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Insert Rows1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so I need to build a workflow that tackles a pretty common task: getting data out of a spreadsheet file and pushing it into a database. The user wants to read `spreadsheet.xls`, process it, and then insert the extracted data into a PostgreSQL table called `product`, specifically mapping to `name` and `ean` columns. I've got the finished JSON structure as my guide, so I'll walk through how I'd reason about putting it together.\n\nFirst things first, the goal is to read a local file. How do I get a file from the local file system into n8n? My first thought immediately goes to the file system nodes. Looking at the options, the `Read Binary File` node is perfect for this. It's designed to take a file path and output the file content as binary data, which is exactly what a spreadsheet node would expect as input.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a `Read Binary File` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is essential because it's the entry point for our data; it's how we get the spreadsheet file *into* the workflow. For its configuration, I'd need to tell it *which* file to read. The prompt clearly states `spreadsheet.xls`, so I'd set its `filePath` parameter to `\"spreadsheet.xls\"`. Simple enough.\n\nOnce the `Read Binary File` node has done its job, it's going to output the raw binary content of the `.xls` file. Now, that binary content isn't directly usable for database insertion; it needs to be parsed into a structured format, like rows and columns of data. Since the user specifically mentioned \"processes the file as a spreadsheet,\" I know I need a node that understands spreadsheet formats like Excel.\n\nThis is where the `Spreadsheet File` node comes in. It's designed to take binary spreadsheet data as input and parse it into a more structured, item-based format that n8n can easily work with \u2013 usually an array of objects, where each object represents a row and its keys are column headers. So, my next logical step is to connect the `Read Binary File` node's main output to the `Spreadsheet File` node's main input.\n\nThe `Spreadsheet File` node has a type of `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile` and a `typeVersion` of `1`. Looking at the JSON, it doesn't seem to require any specific parameters to be set in this case, which is great. It implies it's smart enough to auto-detect the format from the incoming binary data or the file extension, and probably just parses everything it finds. If there were multiple sheets, or specific ranges, I might need to configure it further, but for a basic read, default settings usually suffice.\n\nSo now, I have structured data. Each item flowing out of the `Spreadsheet File` node will represent a row from the spreadsheet, with properties like `name` and `ean` (assuming those are the column headers in the spreadsheet, which is a fair assumption given the target database columns). The final step is to take this structured data and insert it into the PostgreSQL database.\n\nFor database interaction, specifically PostgreSQL, the `Postgres` node is the obvious choice. It supports various operations, and \"inserting data\" is exactly what's needed here. So, I'll connect the `Spreadsheet File` node's main output to the `Postgres` node's main input.\n\nThe `Postgres` node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.postgres` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. Now, for its configuration. The user explicitly stated inserting data into the `product` table, mapping to `name` and `ean` columns. So, I'd set the `table` parameter to `\"product\"`. And for the `columns` parameter, I'd specify `\"name,ean\"`. This tells the Postgres node to expect `name` and `ean` properties on the incoming items (which the `Spreadsheet File` node should have provided) and map them to the corresponding columns in the `product` table.\n\nCrucially, any database node, including Postgres, needs credentials to connect to the database. The JSON indicates `credentials: {\"postgres\": \"postgres\"}`. This means a credential named \"postgres\" of the \"PostgreSQL\" type would have been pre-configured in the n8n environment, containing details like the database host, port, username, and password. I wouldn't include those sensitive values in the workflow itself, just refer to the pre-existing credential name.\n\nAnd that's it. The data flows from the file system, gets parsed into a structured format, and then gets inserted row by row into the database. Each node serves a specific, vital purpose in this sequence, moving the data from a raw binary state to a processed and stored state." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'My workflow' that starts with a basic Schedule Trigger.

So, right off the bat, I'll ensure the `name` property for the entire workflow is set to \"My workflow\" and the `active` property is set to `false`. This establishes the basic shell and initial state.\n\nNow, let's think about the actual flow of operations, starting with the trigger. The prompt clearly states it needs to \"start with a basic Schedule Trigger.\"\n\n1. **Node 1: Schedule Trigger**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`. This is the perfect choice because it's designed to initiate workflows based on a predefined schedule\u2014be it at specific intervals, times, or dates. It's the go-to node for any workflow that needs to run automatically without manual intervention or an external event.\n * **Type Version:** The JSON specifies `1`, so I'll use that version. Different type versions might have slightly different parameter structures or default behaviors, but version 1 is what's indicated here.\n * **Configuration:** Looking at the `parameters` for this node, it has `{\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}`. This indicates a very basic, possibly default, interval-based schedule. It doesn't specify an exact frequency (like \"every hour\" or \"every day\"), but it correctly sets up the mechanism for scheduled execution. For a \"basic Schedule Trigger\" as requested, this configuration fits the bill. It's ready to kick off the workflow at whatever default interval n8n assigns, or it could be further configured in the UI later if a more precise schedule were needed.\n\nNext, the prompt states this trigger should connect to a 'Set' node. So, the output of our Schedule Trigger will feed directly into this next node.\n\n2. **Node 2: Set**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`. The 'Set' node is incredibly versatile. Its primary purpose is to manipulate data by setting new fields, modifying existing ones, or even removing them. Since we need to define a variable, this is the most direct and clear way to achieve that.\n * **Type Version:** The JSON shows `3.3`. I'll use this specific version. Newer versions might offer additional features or optimizations, but `3.3` is what we're working with here.\n * **Connection:** The `connections` section confirms that the `Schedule Trigger`'s main output connects to the `Set` node. This means when the schedule triggers, the workflow execution will immediately pass to this 'Set' node.\n * **Configuration:** The prompt specifies that this node needs to \"set a string variable named 'other' to an empty value.\" Looking at the JSON, under `parameters.assignments.assignments`, I see `{\"name\": \"other\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}`. This configuration perfectly matches the requirement. It tells the 'Set' node to take the incoming data item(s) and, for each one, add or update a field called `other`, setting its value to an empty string (`\"\"`). The `type: \"string\"` ensures it's treated as text. This is exactly what we need for the first data manipulation step.\n\nFinally, the prompt says the first 'Set' node then connects to *another* 'Set' node, which should be named 'Set1'. This means the data processed by our first 'Set' node will then flow into this third node.\n\n3. **Node 3: Set1**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`. Again, another 'Set' node. It's used here for the same purpose as the previous one: data manipulation. Even though it's setting the same variable to the same value, the prompt specifically asks for two 'Set' nodes, and this is how we implement that.\n * **Type Version:** This one also specifies `3.3`, so consistency is maintained.\n * **Name:** Crucially, the prompt requires this node to be named \"Set1\". The JSON confirms its `name` property is set to \"Set1\".\n * **Connection:** The `connections` section shows that the `Set` node's main output connects to `Set1`. This establishes the sequential flow: Trigger -> Set -> Set1. Data from the first 'Set' node, now containing the `other` variable, will be passed to this second 'Set' node.\n * **Configuration:** Just like the first 'Set' node, this one's `parameters.assignments.assignments` also shows `{\"name\": \"other\", \"value\": \"\", \"type\": \"string\"}`. This means it will also set the 'other' variable to an empty string. While setting an empty string to an already empty string might seem redundant in a real-world scenario, it perfectly fulfills the prompt's requirement for *both* 'Set' nodes to perform this specific action. It demonstrates the flow and repeated manipulation of data as specified." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger node named \"When clicking \\\\\"Test workflow\\\\\"\", which then connects to a DebugHelper node configured to generate 100 items of random data with a seed of 0.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [780, 500]}, {\"parameters\": {\"category\": \"randomData\", \"randomDataSeed\": \"0\", \"randomDataCount\": 100}, \"name\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1000, 500]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow. The request is quite clear: we need a manual trigger, and then a specific debug helper node.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to kick it off. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger node named 'When clicking \"Test workflow\"'\". So, my immediate thought is to bring in the `Manual Trigger` node. This is a fundamental node in n8n, typically used when you want to initiate a workflow either by clicking \"Execute Workflow\" in the editor or via a webhook for a production workflow. For this scenario, the user clearly intends a manual run.\n\nLooking at the n8n nodes, the type for this is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. The `typeVersion` specified in the JSON is `1`, which is the standard, widely adopted version for this node. I wouldn't anticipate any different behavior with other minor versions if they existed, as the core functionality of a manual trigger is quite stable. I'll name this node \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", exactly as requested in the prompt and reflected in the JSON. This name makes it very clear what its purpose is within the workflow visually. This node doesn't really need any specific parameters configured, as its function is simply to start the execution.\n\nNext, the prompt states that this trigger \"then connects to a DebugHelper node\". This tells me exactly what the next step in our workflow needs to be. The `DebugHelper` node is an incredibly useful tool, especially when you're building and testing workflows. It can simulate data, inspect items, and generally help in understanding data flow without needing external services.\n\nSo, I'll add a `DebugHelper` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper`, and again, the `typeVersion` is `1`. This is the standard version, and for debugging purposes, it's generally very stable across minor updates.\n\nNow, for the critical part: configuring this `DebugHelper` node. The prompt is very specific: it needs to be \"configured to generate 100 items of random data with a seed of 0\". This is where the `DebugHelper` node's versatility comes into play. Within its parameters, it has different \"categories\" of debug operations. To generate random data, I'll need to set the `category` parameter to `randomData`. This tells the node to switch its behavior from just passing data through or inspecting it, to actively generating new data.\n\nOnce `randomData` is selected, new options appear for how that random data should be generated. The prompt specifies \"100 items\", so I'll set the `randomDataCount` parameter to `100`. This will ensure our DebugHelper outputs exactly one hundred data items when it runs. Crucially, the prompt also mentions \"with a seed of 0\". This is important for reproducibility. Setting the `randomDataSeed` parameter to `0` means that every time this workflow is executed, the \"random\" data generated will be exactly the same. This is incredibly useful for consistent testing and debugging, as you're working with a predictable dataset. If we didn't specify a seed, the data would truly be random each time, which can make debugging harder.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The manual trigger needs to initiate the `DebugHelper` node. So, the output of the \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" node will connect to the input of the \"DebugHelper\" node. When the manual trigger is activated, it will pass control to the `DebugHelper`, allowing it to execute its configured task of generating the 100 items of random data. This connection from the `main` output of the trigger to the `main` input of the `DebugHelper` is the standard way to chain nodes in n8n, ensuring a sequential flow of execution." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object for an inactive resource named 'Supabase', ensuring it has empty `nodes` and `connections`, and a `settings` object containing `executionOrder: 'v1'`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Supabase\", \"nodes\": [], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, I'm going to start designing this n8n workflow. The request is quite specific: I need to generate a JSON object for an inactive resource named 'Supabase', ensuring it has empty `nodes` and `connections`, and a `settings` object with `executionOrder: 'v1'`.\n\nMy first thought is, this isn't a workflow that *does* anything right now. It's more like defining a placeholder or a template for a future workflow. So, I'm focusing on the metadata and structural properties of an n8n workflow definition.\n\nEvery n8n workflow, at its core, needs some unique identification and timestamps. So, I'll start by ensuring there are fields like `id`, `createdAt`, and `updatedAt`. These are typically system-generated when a workflow is saved or created in n8n. The `id` is crucial for n8n to distinguish this workflow from all others. The timestamps are standard for auditing and tracking when it was first created and when it was last modified.\n\nNext, the `name`. The prompt explicitly states the resource should be named 'Supabase'. So, I'll set the `name` property to `\"Supabase\"`. This is how it will appear in the n8n UI and how users will identify it. It's purely descriptive.\n\nA very critical part of this request is the `active` status. The prompt says \"inactive resource\". This means the `active` property must be set to `false`. If it were `true`, n8n would try to execute it, assuming it had a trigger, but since it's inactive, it will simply sit there, dormant, even if I later add nodes to it. This is important for deploying workflows in a controlled manner, making sure they don't run until they're truly ready.\n\nNow for the actual workflow structure: `nodes` and `connections`. The prompt explicitly states \"empty `nodes` and `connections`\". So, the `nodes` property will be an empty array (`[]`), and `connections` will be an empty object (`{}`). This is the most direct way to represent a workflow that has no defined steps or logic. If I were building a functional workflow, I would start by thinking, \"Okay, what's the trigger? Is it an HTTP request, a cron job, a webhook?\" Then I'd pick a node type like `Webhook` (typeVersion 1) or `Cron` (typeVersion 1) and start configuring it. But for this specific request, the requirement is to keep them empty, signifying a blank slate.\n\nFollowing that, the `settings` object. The prompt requires it to contain `executionOrder: 'v1'`. So, I'll include a `settings` object with `executionOrder` set to `'v1'`. This is a fundamental configuration for how n8n processes the flow of data and execution between nodes. 'v1' is the standard, modern execution engine used for most workflows, providing reliable and sequential processing. Even with no nodes, this is a good default to have in place for when nodes are eventually added.\n\nFinally, there are some other metadata fields that n8n workflows commonly have. `staticData` is usually `null` for an empty workflow; it's used for data that persists across executions for specific nodes. `meta` is another placeholder for additional metadata, often `null` or used for things like descriptions. `pinData` is related to UI presentation. `versionId` is an internal identifier used by n8n's versioning system, which is helpful for tracking changes to the workflow definition itself. `triggerCount` starts at `0` for any new workflow as it hasn't been triggered yet. And `tags` would be an empty array (`[]`) initially, as tags are usually added later for organizational purposes to group similar workflows.\n\nSo, the overall design comes down to populating these top-level properties to match the exact requirements of an inactive, empty workflow definition named 'Supabase', with the specified execution order. It's essentially a well-defined shell ready for actual workflow logic to be built inside it later." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"Dashboard-workflows\" that starts with a POST webhook on the path \"launch\".

The goal here is to create a workflow that acts as a kind of dispatcher or orchestrator for other workflows, triggered by an external system, and then provides a clear response.\n\nSo, first things first, how does this workflow get started? The prompt explicitly states it should \"start with a POST webhook on the path 'launch'\". This immediately tells me I need a Webhook trigger node. It's the standard way for n8n to listen for external events.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **Type Version:** `2`\n\nI'd place this `Webhook` node right at the beginning, at position `[0, 0]`, as it's the entry point. Looking at its configuration, it needs to be set up to listen for `POST` requests, as specified in the prompt. So, `httpMethod` is `POST`. The `path` is crucial for external systems to know where to send their requests, and the prompt says it should be \"launch\", so `path` will be `launch`. For `responseMode`, it's clear we'll be sending a response back to the original webhook later, so `responseMode` should be set to `responseNode`. This ensures the webhook stays open until another node explicitly sends a response. The `options` are empty, which is fine; we don't need any special additional settings for this basic setup. This looks solid as our starting point.\n\nNow, what's the very next thing this workflow needs to do? The prompt states: \"It should then execute another workflow, dynamically fetching its ID from the incoming webhook body (`$json.body.workflowId`)\". This immediately suggests an \"Execute Workflow\" node. This node is perfect for triggering other n8n workflows from within the current one.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow`\n* **Type Version:** `1.2`\n\nI'll connect the `Webhook` node's main output to the input of this new `Execute Workflow` node. I'd place it directly after the webhook, say at `[260, 0]`, to keep the flow linear. The key configuration here is how it determines *which* workflow to execute. The prompt clearly states \"dynamically fetching its ID from the incoming webhook body (`$json.body.workflowId`)\". So, for the `workflowId` parameter, I'll use an expression: `={{ $json.body.workflowId }}`. The `__rl` and `value` fields in the JSON confirm this; `mode: \"id\"` is also correct, as we're providing a workflow ID. This allows the calling system to decide which specific child workflow should run, which is very flexible. For `workflowInputs`, the prompt doesn't specify any inputs to pass to the child workflow, so `mappingMode: defineBelow` and an empty `value: {}` (and other default settings for `workflowInputs`) are perfectly fine. We're just triggering it, not necessarily sending it data from this parent workflow. `options` are also empty, as no special execution options are needed beyond the default.\n\nFinally, after executing the child workflow, what's the last step? The prompt says: \"and finally respond to the original webhook with a JSON success message that includes the current workflow's ID.\" This tells me I need a `Respond to Webhook` node. This node is specifically designed to send back a response to the webhook that triggered the workflow, completing the cycle.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`\n* **Type Version:** `1.1`\n\nThis `Respond to Webhook` node needs to be connected from the `Execute Workflow` node's main output. I'd position it after the `Execute Workflow` node, maybe at `[520, 0]`. Now, for its configuration: `respondWith` should be set to `json`, because the prompt asks for a \"JSON success message\". The `responseBody` is where the actual message goes. It needs to include a success status and the current workflow's ID. A good JSON structure would be `{\"success\": true, \"message\": \"Workflow executed successfully\", \"executionId\": \"...\"}`. To get the current workflow's ID, n8n provides a global variable: `$workflow.id`. So, the `responseBody` will look like `{\"success\": true, \"message\": \"Workflow ejecutado con \u00e9xito\", \"executionId\": \"{{$workflow.id}}\"}`. The `responseCode` is set to `200`, which is the standard HTTP status code for a successful request.\n\nThis flow\u2014Webhook -> Execute Workflow -> Respond to Webhook\u2014makes perfect sense and directly addresses all parts of the user's prompt. The data flow is straightforward: the webhook receives the initial request, its body provides the ID for the next node, and then the final node uses built-in workflow data to construct the response. Seems complete." } { "prompt": "Generate n8n workflow JSON for a single \"SSE Trigger\" node.

The request is quite specific: we need a single node, an \"SSE Trigger,\" configured in a particular way.\n\nThe very first thing I need to identify is the core purpose of this workflow. It's meant to react to Server-Sent Events (SSE). This immediately tells me the type of node I'll need to start with. I'll be looking for a trigger node that can listen for and respond to these events.\n\nBased on the prompt and the provided JSON, the node type is clearly `n8n-nodes-base.sseTrigger`. This is perfect. An SSE Trigger node is specifically designed to establish a connection to an SSE endpoint and emit data whenever new events are received. It's inherently a starting point for a workflow, which makes sense as it's the only node we're defining here.\n\nNow, let's place this node on our canvas. The instructions specify a position of `[850, 420]`. This is purely for visual organization within the n8n editor, ensuring the workflow looks tidy. So, I'll go ahead and place my \"SSE Trigger\" node at those exact coordinates.\n\nNext, I need to configure the node's parameters. The most critical parameter for an SSE Trigger node is its `url`. This is the address of the server-sent event stream that the node will connect to and listen for events from. Without this, the node wouldn't know where to look for events. The prompt explicitly tells me to set this `url` to `https:\/\/n8n.io`. So, I'll input `https:\/\/n8n.io` into the `url` field of my \"SSE Trigger\" node. In a more general scenario, this would be the specific URL of the SSE source that a user wants to monitor for real-time updates.\n\nThen, I see the `typeVersion` is specified as `1`. This is important because it locks in the behavior of this particular node. Different versions of a node can sometimes have different parameters or slightly altered functionalities. By specifying `typeVersion: 1`, we ensure that this \"SSE Trigger\" node behaves exactly as expected for that specific iteration of its development. It's a way to maintain compatibility and predictability in the workflow.\n\nFinally, I need to consider connections. The prompt explicitly states \"no connections.\" Since this is a standalone trigger node, and no subsequent actions or nodes are defined, it naturally won't have any outgoing connections. It's simply set up to listen and receive. So, the `connections` object in the workflow JSON will remain empty, indicating no links to any other nodes in the workflow. This workflow essentially consists of just the listener." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON named 'My workflow' that starts with a chat message trigger. This trigger should feed into an AI Agent, which in turn uses a DeepSeek Chat Model authenticated with a 'DeepSeek account' credential, and the workflow should be initially inactive.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"When chat message received\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [-520, -200]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"AI Agent\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.agent\", \"typeVersion\": 1.8, \"position\": [-300, -200]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"DeepSeek Chat Model\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatDeepSeek\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [-320, -20]}], \"connections\": {\"When chat message received\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"AI Agent\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"DeepSeek Chat Model\": {\"ai_languageModel\": [[{\"node\": \"AI Agent\", \"type\": \"ai_languageModel\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's break down this n8n workflow step by step, imagining I'm building it from scratch based on the user's prompt and the provided JSON.\n\nFirst, I always start by looking at the high-level requirements. The user wants a workflow named 'My workflow', which is straightforward, and importantly, it should be 'initially inactive'. So, right off the bat, I'd make sure the `active` property of the workflow is set to `false`. That's a top-level setting, easy to get out of the way.\n\nNow, onto the actual flow. The prompt clearly states it \"starts with a chat message trigger.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can listen for incoming chat messages. Looking at the n8n nodes, the best fit for this is a dedicated chat trigger.\n\nSo, I'd add a node of type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger`. The JSON specifies `typeVersion: 1.1`, which is the current version designed for this purpose. I'd name it something descriptive like \"When chat message received,\" as seen in the JSON. For its parameters, the JSON shows `{\"options\": {}}`, meaning it's configured with default settings, which is often sufficient for a basic chat trigger unless specific channels or filtering are needed. This node will effectively be the entry point for the entire workflow, waiting for someone to send a message.\n\nNext, the prompt says, \"This trigger should feed into an AI Agent.\" Perfect, so the output from our chat trigger needs to go directly into an AI Agent node. I'd then search for and add the AI Agent node. Its type is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.agent`, and the JSON uses `typeVersion: 1.8`. This node is crucial because it brings in the reasoning capabilities; it's the brain that decides what to do with the incoming chat message. The connection here is vital: the `When chat message received` node's main output should connect to the AI Agent's main input. This ensures that the actual chat message content received by the trigger is passed along for the AI Agent to process. Again, for its parameters, `{\"options\": {}}` indicates default settings, meaning the agent will start with its standard configuration and not specific tools or custom instructions from the get-go, relying on its integrated language model for general reasoning.\n\nNow, an AI Agent isn't smart on its own; it needs a language model to \"think.\" The prompt specifies \"which in turn uses a DeepSeek Chat Model.\" This tells me I need to bring in a specific language model node that the AI Agent can leverage.\n\nSo, I'd add a node for the DeepSeek Chat Model. Its type is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatDeepSeek`, and the JSON shows `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically for interacting with DeepSeek's AI models. The way it connects to the AI Agent is different from a standard sequential flow. It's not about passing data from DeepSeek *to* the agent, but rather the agent *using* DeepSeek as its underlying intelligence. So, I'd establish a connection where the `DeepSeek Chat Model` node's output feeds into a specific input on the `AI Agent` node, typically labeled something like `ai_languageModel` or similar, as shown in the `connections` section of the JSON. This effectively tells the AI Agent, \"Use *this* DeepSeek model for your language understanding and generation tasks.\"\n\nFinally, for the DeepSeek Chat Model, authentication is crucial. The prompt states it's \"authenticated with a 'DeepSeek account' credential.\" The JSON confirms this by showing `credentials: {\"deepSeekApi\": {\"id\": \"B6qr3ZiJYP3EFtIo\", \"name\": \"DeepSeek account\"}}`. This is great because it means I don't have to embed any sensitive API keys directly in the workflow. Instead, I'm simply referencing a pre-configured credential in n8n named \"DeepSeek account.\" This credential would internally hold the necessary API key to connect to the DeepSeek service securely. Without this, the DeepSeek Chat Model wouldn't be able to communicate with the DeepSeek API.\n\nSo, to recap the flow as I'm building it:\n1. Set the overall workflow to `inactive`.\n2. Add a `chatTrigger` node to listen for messages.\n3. Connect the `chatTrigger`'s output to the `AI Agent` node's main input, so the agent receives the message.\n4. Add a `DeepSeek Chat Model` node.\n5. Connect the `DeepSeek Chat Model` node to the `AI Agent` node via its `ai_languageModel` input, establishing DeepSeek as the agent's brain.\n6. Ensure the `DeepSeek Chat Model` is configured to use the \"DeepSeek account\" credential for authentication.\n\nThis setup perfectly aligns with the prompt, creating a workflow that receives a chat message, processes it with an AI Agent, which in turn uses a DeepSeek model for its intelligence, all while respecting the initial inactive state." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that, upon manual execution, fetches a random cocktail from the CocktailDB API, converts its JSON response to binary data, and saves it as `cocktail.json`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [400, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"jsonToBinary\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Move Binary Data\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [550, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"cocktail.json\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [700, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"HTTP Request\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Move Binary Data\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Move Binary Data\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning out this workflow. The user wants to trigger something manually, fetch cocktail data, transform it, and then save it to a file. This sounds like a fairly straightforward sequence of operations.\n\nFirst things first, the workflow needs a way to kick off. The prompt specifically says \"upon manual execution.\" This immediately tells me I'll need a trigger node that a user can explicitly activate. The most suitable node for this is the `Manual Trigger` node. I'll add that as my starting point.\n\nSo, for the first node, I'm choosing `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to initiate a workflow run when someone clicks a button or explicitly triggers it within the n8n interface. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters for its basic operation; it just waits to be told to start. This will be the very first node in our workflow, so it won't have any incoming connections, but it will need to pass control to the next step once it's executed.\n\nNext, the prompt states \"fetches a random cocktail from the CocktailDB API.\" To interact with an external API, the standard node in n8n is the `HTTP Request` node. This node can make various types of web requests, like GET, POST, etc., which is exactly what we need to query the CocktailDB API.\n\nSo, I'll add an `HTTP Request` node, which is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` and `typeVersion: 1`. For its parameters, the crucial piece is the `url`. The CocktailDB API has a specific endpoint for fetching a random cocktail, which I know is `https:\/\/www.thecocktaildb.com\/api\/json\/v1\/1\/random.php`. I'll put that directly into the `url` parameter. Since we're just fetching data, a simple GET request is sufficient, so I don't need to specify any complex `options` like authentication or request body for this particular API call. This node will receive input from the `Manual Trigger` node, meaning the connection will go from the `On clicking 'execute'` node's `main` output to this `HTTP Request` node's `main` input. This ensures the API call only happens after the workflow has been manually triggered.\n\nThe prompt then specifies \"converts its JSON response to binary data.\" The `HTTP Request` node, by default, will likely output the API response as JSON data within an n8n item. However, when we want to save this data to a file, especially if we're treating the file content as raw data, it's often more efficient or necessary to work with binary data. The `Move Binary Data` node is precisely designed for these types of transformations. It can convert data between JSON and binary formats.\n\nSo, I'm selecting the `Move Binary Data` node, `type: n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData` with `typeVersion: 1`. Looking at its parameters, there's a `mode` option. Since the goal is to take JSON and make it binary, the `jsonToBinary` mode is exactly what's needed. This will take the JSON object that the `HTTP Request` node produced (which contains the cocktail data) and attach it as binary data to the n8n item. No other special `options` are required for this conversion. The connection for this node will be from the `HTTP Request` node's `main` output to its `main` input, ensuring that the fetched cocktail data is the input for this conversion step.\n\nFinally, the requirement is to \"save it as `cocktail.json`.\" Now that we have the cocktail data in a binary format, ready to be written as a file, we need a node to perform that file writing operation. The `Write Binary File` node is the dedicated node for this purpose.\n\nSo, the last node will be `Write Binary File`, `type: n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile` with `typeVersion: 1`. Its key parameter will be `fileName`. The prompt explicitly states the file should be named `cocktail.json`, so I'll set that value directly. This node will take the binary data created by the `Move Binary Data` node and save it to a file with the specified name in the workflow's designated storage location (or where n8n is configured to write files). The connection here will be from the `Move Binary Data` node's `main` output to the `Write Binary File` node's `main` input, passing the freshly converted binary cocktail data along for persistence.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow chain. It starts with a manual trigger, fetches the data, converts it to a suitable format, and then writes it to a file. Each step logically follows from the previous one, fulfilling all the requirements of the prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow starting with a 'When chat message received' trigger.

The user wants something that starts with a chat message and then processes some fixed data.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the prompt, it's clear we need a \"When chat message received\" trigger. This makes perfect sense; if the workflow is meant to respond to chat interactions, this is the foundational piece.\n\nSo, I'd search for a chat-related trigger. Based on the provided JSON, the specific node type for this is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` with `typeVersion` 1.1. This node is specifically designed to listen for incoming chat messages, acting as the entry point for our workflow. It sits there, waiting for a user to send a message, and when it gets one, it kicks off the subsequent steps. For this particular setup, the `parameters.options` are empty, meaning no specific configurations like filtering messages or setting up a specific chat service are needed beyond its basic listening capability. It's a clean, straightforward trigger to begin.\n\nNext, the prompt says this trigger should connect to a \"Set\" node named \"Node 1.\" A \"Set\" node is incredibly versatile in n8n; it's perfect for creating new data, modifying existing data, or simply ensuring certain data is available for subsequent nodes. In this case, it's about explicitly *setting* a specific JSON output.\n\nSo, I'd draw a connection from our \"When chat message received\" trigger's \"main\" output to the input of our new \"Set\" node. This ensures that when a chat message comes in, the workflow seamlessly moves to this next step.\n\nNow, configuring \"Node 1.\" It's of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion` 3.4. The prompt specifies it should output `{\"this_my_field_1\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_2\": 1}`. To achieve this, I'd set its \"Mode\" parameter to \"Raw\" and then paste that exact JSON structure into the \"JSON Output\" field. This tells the Set node, \"Hey, don't try to interpret any incoming data or build something complex; just output this exact JSON as new items.\" The `options` parameter is empty, so no further special handling or merging is needed here. It's just a direct data injection point.\n\nMoving on, the workflow needs another \"Set\" node, named \"Node 2,\" which also outputs specific JSON. This follows a similar logic to \"Node 1,\" but with different data.\n\nSo, just like before, I'd draw a connection from \"Node 1\"'s \"main\" output to \"Node 2\"'s input. This means that after \"Node 1\" successfully creates its specified JSON, that data then flows into \"Node 2,\" although in this specific setup, \"Node 2\" isn't *using* the incoming data but rather *overwriting* it or adding new items based on its own configuration.\n\nConfiguring \"Node 2,\" it's also of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion` 3.4, identical to \"Node 1\" in its fundamental operation. The prompt dictates its output: `{\"this_my_field_3\": \"value\", \"this_my_field_4\": 1}`. Again, I'd select \"Raw\" mode for its \"parameters.mode\" and then input that precise JSON string into the \"parameters.jsonOutput\" field. This makes \"Node 2\" produce its own distinct JSON payload. The `options` parameter is again empty, just a straightforward raw JSON output.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the entire request. We have a trigger, and two consecutive Set nodes, each injecting their own specific, raw JSON data into the workflow stream. The connections ensure a linear flow, starting from the chat message and sequentially passing control and data (or in this case, new data items) through the Set nodes." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named \"OpenWeatherMap:: current-weather 5-day-forecast\".

The goal here is to fetch current weather data and then a 5-day forecast for Berlin, keeping the workflow inactive initially, and ensuring specific API credentials are used.\n\nFirst things first, any workflow needs a starting point. So, I'd begin by adding a **Start** node. This is a fundamental component for any n8n workflow, acting as the entry point from which the workflow execution begins, whether it's triggered manually, by a schedule, or an external event. This node is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.start` and `typeVersion: 1`. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters itself; its purpose is simply to initiate the flow.\n\nNext, the prompt specifies fetching \"current weather for Berlin\". To achieve this, I'll need an integration with OpenWeatherMap. So, the logical next step is to add an **OpenWeatherMap** node. This node, `type: n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap` and `typeVersion: 1`, is specifically designed for interacting with the OpenWeatherMap API, making it the perfect choice for this task. I'll connect its main output from the **Start** node's main input, ensuring that the weather fetching begins immediately after the workflow starts.\n\nNow, how do I configure this \"OpenWeatherMap\" node (which is named \"OpenWeatherMap\" in the provided JSON)? I need to specify the city and language. Looking at the prompt, it clearly states \"for Berlin in English.\" So, within the node's parameters, I'd set the `cityName` to \"berlin\" and the `language` to \"en\". Another crucial part of the prompt is using the \"openweathermap token\" API credential. So, under the credentials section for this node, I'd link it to the appropriate OpenWeatherMap API credential that would hold the necessary API key. I wouldn't specify the actual key here, but rather reference the configured credential name, which in this case is \"openweathermap token.\"\n\nThere's also a specific instruction to \"ignore 'rain' properties.\" While the OpenWeatherMap node itself doesn't have a direct parameter to exclude specific properties from the API response, it's good practice to add a note to the node to document this requirement. So, I'd add a note to this node saying `IGNORED_PROPERTIES=rain`. This serves as a clear instruction or reminder for anyone inspecting or modifying the workflow in the future, even if it's handled post-fetch by another node or interpreted by a consuming application.\n\nAfter getting the current weather, the prompt then asks to \"fetch a 5-day forecast for Berlin.\" This means I'll need *another* OpenWeatherMap node. I'll call this one \"OpenWeatherMap1\" as per the JSON. Again, this is the same `type: n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap` with `typeVersion: 1`, as it's the standard way to interact with the OpenWeatherMap API.\n\nThis new \"OpenWeatherMap1\" node needs to execute *after* the current weather has been fetched. So, I'll connect the main output of the first \"OpenWeatherMap\" node to the main input of this second \"OpenWeatherMap1\" node. This ensures a sequential flow, where the forecast request follows the current weather request.\n\nFor the configuration of this \"OpenWeatherMap1\" node, the key difference from the first one is the operation. Instead of fetching current weather, it needs to fetch a forecast. The OpenWeatherMap node provides an `operation` parameter, and for a 5-day forecast, I'd select `5DayForecast`. Similar to the previous node, the city and language remain \"berlin\" and \"en\" respectively, as per the prompt. And, critically, it must use the *same* API credential as the first OpenWeatherMap node, so I'd link it to the \"openweathermap token\" credential as well.\n\nFinally, looking at the overall workflow requirements, the prompt states the workflow should be \"inactive\" and named \"OpenWeatherMap:: current-weather 5-day-forecast\". So, in the overall workflow settings, I would ensure the `active` flag is set to `false` and the `name` property is set to \"OpenWeatherMap:: current-weather 5-day-forecast\".

The prompt explicitly states two ways: manually or on a daily schedule. This immediately tells me I'll need at least two trigger nodes.\n\nLet's pick one of the triggers to start with. A manual trigger is always good for development and testing, so I'll probably add that first.\n\nSo, I'm looking for a node that lets me kick off the workflow with a simple click. The `manualTrigger` node is perfect for this.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Reasoning:** This node, named \"On clicking 'execute'\" in the JSON, serves as a straightforward way to start the workflow on demand. It's incredibly useful during development to test the downstream operations without waiting for a schedule. Its parameters are empty, as it literally just needs to exist to provide the manual execution button. Nothing fancy needed here; it's just a simple \"start\" button.\n\nNext, I need to address the second part of the triggering requirement: \"daily at 7 AM.\" For scheduled execution, the `cron` node is the go-to.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.cron`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Reasoning:** This node, named \"Cron,\" is designed to run workflows on a predefined schedule. To meet the \"daily at 7 AM\" requirement, I'll need to configure its `triggerTimes` parameter. Inside `triggerTimes`, there's an `item` array, and I'll specify an object with `hour: 7`. This tells the workflow to execute every day when the clock hits 7 AM. It's precise and reliable for recurring tasks like this.\n\nNow that I have my triggers set up, I need to think about the core action: \"delete `execution_entity` records older than 30 days from MySQL.\" This clearly points to a database operation, specifically with MySQL. So, I'll need a MySQL node.\n\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.mySql`\n* **Type Version:** 1\n* **Reasoning:** This \"MySQL\" node is fundamental for interacting with a MySQL database. It allows me to run queries, fetch data, or, in this case, delete records.\n * For its configuration, the primary goal is to delete records. The `operation` parameter should therefore be set to `executeQuery`. This option gives me the flexibility to write any custom SQL statement, which is exactly what I need for a `DELETE` operation with specific date logic.\n * The `query` parameter is where the magic happens. I'll input the SQL statement: `DELETE FROM execution_entity WHERE DATE(stoppedAt) < DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 30 DAY)`. Let's break this SQL down:\n * `DELETE FROM execution_entity`: This is the standard SQL command to remove rows from the `execution_entity` table.\n * `WHERE DATE(stoppedAt) < DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 30 DAY)`: This is the crucial filtering condition.\n * `stoppedAt`: I'm assuming this is the column in the `execution_entity` table that stores the timestamp when an execution stopped.\n * `DATE(stoppedAt)`: This function extracts just the date part from the `stoppedAt` timestamp, ignoring the time component. This is important for a clean day-by-day comparison.\n * `CURDATE()`: This MySQL function returns the current date.\n * `DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 30 DAY)`: This function subtracts 30 days from the current date. So, if today is November 30th, this would calculate October 31st.\n * Putting it together, the `WHERE` clause effectively selects all records where the `stoppedAt` date is *earlier* than 30 days ago, thus targeting records older than 30 days. This is exactly what the user requested.\n * Finally, for `credentials`, the prompt specifies \"n8n\" credentials. So, I'll set the `mySql` credential to `n8n`. This is how the workflow securely connects to the database using pre-configured connection details like host, port, username, and password, without exposing them directly in the workflow JSON.\n\nNow that all the nodes are defined and configured, I need to connect them. Both triggers should lead to the MySQL node.\n* **Connection 1:** From the \"Cron\" node, I'll create a \"main\" connection that points to the \"MySQL\" node. This means whenever the Cron node triggers (daily at 7 AM), it will pass execution control to the MySQL node, telling it to run its query.\n* **Connection 2:** Similarly, from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node, I'll create a \"main\" connection that also points to the \"MySQL\" node. This ensures that a manual trigger also executes the same database cleanup operation.\n\nThe data flow here is straightforward: the trigger nodes don't pass specific data items *to* the MySQL node in a meaningful way for this particular setup. Their primary role is to initiate the execution of the MySQL node. The MySQL node itself doesn't need input data from the triggers to perform its `DELETE` operation, as its query is self-contained. It simply needs to be told \"go run now\".\n\nThis structure seems solid. It meets both triggering requirements and performs the exact database operation specified. It's clear, efficient, and uses appropriate nodes for each part of the task." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that fetches XML data from `https:\/\/httpbin.org\/xml`, converts it to JSON, changes the `slideshow.title` value to \"New Title Name\", converts the modified JSON back to XML, and finally uploads this XML file to Dropbox as `\/my-xml-file.xml`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"To JSON\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.xml\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [700, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"string\": [{\"name\": \"slideshow.title\", \"value\": \"New Title Name\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Change title\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [900, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/httpbin.org\/xml\", \"responseFormat\": \"string\"}, \"name\": \"Get XML Data\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"\/my-xml-file.xml\", \"fileContent\": \"={{$node[\\\"To XML\\\"].data[\\\"data\\\"]}}\"}, \"name\": \"Dropbox\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.dropbox\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1300, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"jsonToxml\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"To XML\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.xml\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1100, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"To XML\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Dropbox\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"To JSON\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Change title\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Change title\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"To XML\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Get XML Data\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"To JSON\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's walk through building this n8n workflow, thinking step by step as we go.\n\nThe core request here is to fetch XML, transform it, modify some data, transform it back, and then upload it. That gives us a pretty clear sequence of operations.\n\nFirst, we need to get the XML data. For fetching data from a URL, an **HTTP Request node** (`n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`, typeVersion 1) is always the go-to. I'd name it something descriptive like \"Get XML Data\". In its parameters, I'd set the `url` to `https:\/\/httpbin.org\/xml`, as specified. Since we're expecting XML text, setting the `responseFormat` to `string` is the correct choice, ensuring the output is treated as raw text rather than attempting to parse it as JSON or some other format automatically. This initial step provides the raw XML content we need to work with.\n\nOnce we have that XML string, the prompt states we need to \"convert it to JSON\". An **XML node** (`n8n-nodes-base.xml`, typeVersion 1) is specifically designed for this. I'll name this one \"To JSON\". When we add an XML node, by default, if no `mode` is specified in its parameters, it typically assumes an `xmlToJson` operation, which is exactly what we need here. So, just connecting the output of \"Get XML Data\" to the input of \"To JSON\" is enough. We don't need to explicitly set `mode` or `options` in its parameters unless we had specific XML parsing requirements beyond the default.\n\nNow that we have the data in JSON format, the next requirement is to \"change the `slideshow.title` value to 'New Title Name'\". For modifying specific fields within a JSON object, a **Set node** (`n8n-nodes-base.set`, typeVersion 1) is incredibly efficient and straightforward. I'd call this node \"Change title\". Inside its parameters, under `values`, I'd add a new `string` entry. For the `name` field, I'd specify `slideshow.title`, using dot notation to target the nested property within the JSON structure. And for the `value`, I'd simply put \"New Title Name\". This node will receive the JSON from \"To JSON\", make that specific change, and then pass the modified JSON object along.\n\nAfter modifying the JSON, the prompt instructs us to \"convert the modified JSON back to XML\". This again points us to an **XML node** (`n8n-nodes-base.xml`, typeVersion 1). I'll name this one \"To XML\". This time, unlike the first XML node, we specifically need to convert JSON *to* XML. So, in its parameters, I would explicitly set the `mode` to `jsonToxml`. Like before, the `options` can remain empty, as we're not dealing with any special conversion rules for this simple case. This node will take the modified JSON from \"Change title\" and turn it back into an XML string.\n\nFinally, the last step is to \"upload this XML file to Dropbox as `\/my-xml-file.xml`.\" For file operations with Dropbox, the **Dropbox node** (`n8n-nodes-base.dropbox`, typeVersion 1) is the correct choice. I'd name it \"Dropbox\". In its parameters, the `path` would be set to `\/my-xml-file.xml`, indicating where in Dropbox the file should be saved and its desired filename. Crucially, for the `fileContent`, we need to tell it to use the XML string generated by the previous \"To XML\" node. We do this using an expression: `={{$node[\"To XML\"].data[\"data\"]}}`. This expression specifically retrieves the `data` property from the output of the \"To XML\" node, which is where the converted XML string will reside. Lastly, this node would require a Dropbox API credential to be configured, which would allow n8n to connect to a user's Dropbox account. This credential would be linked in the `credentials` section, providing the necessary authentication.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow, flowing data from fetching XML, converting, modifying, converting back, and finally uploading to Dropbox. Each node plays a specific role in this sequential transformation and action process." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'Demo workflow' that uses a Chat Trigger node connected to a Basic LLM Chain.

My goal is to create an inactive workflow named 'Demo workflow' that kicks off with a chat, processes it with an LLM chain, and specifically uses an Ollama model.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt clearly states it should use a \"Chat Trigger\" node. So, that's where I'll begin.\n\nI'd add a **Chat Trigger** node. Its type is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` and it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is absolutely essential here because the entire premise of this workflow is to respond to chat interactions. It's designed to listen for incoming chat messages and then pass them along for processing. Since the JSON shows its `parameters` as empty, it means I'm leaving it with its default settings, which is fine for simply triggering on a chat input. I'm not configuring any specific chat platform details here; it'll just be ready to receive.\n\nOnce the chat trigger receives a message, I need something to actually *do* something with that message, specifically involving an LLM. The prompt guides me directly to the next node: a \"Basic LLM Chain.\"\n\nSo, I'd bring in a **Basic LLM Chain** node. Its type is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chainLlm`, and it's `typeVersion: 1.3`. This node is the core orchestrator for our language model interaction. It's not the LLM itself, but rather the component that manages the flow of input to an LLM and then handles the LLM's response. It's like the conductor of an orchestra. I'll connect the `Chat Trigger`'s `main` output to the `Basic LLM Chain`'s `main` input. This connection is crucial because it ensures that whatever message the Chat Trigger receives is passed directly into the LLM Chain for processing. The chain will then take that incoming chat message as its primary input.\n\nNow, the `Basic LLM Chain` needs an actual Language Model to *use*. The prompt is very specific here: it needs to utilize an \"Ollama Chat Model node,\" set to `llama3.2:latest`, and using a local Ollama API credential. This tells me exactly what node to add next, and how it needs to be configured.\n\nSo, I'll add an **Ollama Chat Model** node. Its type is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatOllama`, and it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it provides the direct interface to an Ollama server, allowing us to leverage models hosted locally, which is exactly what `llama3.2:latest` implies. Inside its configuration, I'd set the `model` parameter to `llama3.2:latest`. This is critically important; it tells the Ollama node *which* specific model to load and use from the Ollama server. The JSON also shows `options` as empty, so I'll stick with the default options for this model.\n\nFor the credentials, the JSON indicates that it's linked via an `ollamaApi` credential, named \"Local Ollama service.\" So, when configuring this node, I would ensure that the correct credential for my local Ollama API service is selected. This credential would contain the necessary details to connect to the Ollama server running locally, but I wouldn't specify any specific values here. It just needs to point to that pre-configured credential.\n\nFinally, I need to connect this `Ollama Chat Model` to the `Basic LLM Chain`. This isn't a typical data flow connection; it's a configuration connection. I'll connect the `Ollama Chat Model`'s `ai_languageModel` output to the `Basic LLM Chain`'s `ai_languageModel` input. This tells the `Basic LLM Chain` *which* language model instance it should use for its operations. Without this connection, the chain wouldn't know where to send its prompts or from where to expect responses.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow is inactive as requested, has the correct name, and the nodes and connections match the specifications perfectly. The Chat Trigger starts it, the Basic LLM Chain orchestrates the LLM interaction, and the Ollama Chat Model provides the actual AI capabilities using the specified `llama3.2:latest` model via the configured local API credential." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with a Taiga Trigger node. Configure it as a webhook with ID `53939c3e-7dc6-4fdf-94d8-d29f92f8fa12` for project `385605`, using the 'taiga' TaigaCloudApi credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"projectId\": 385605}, \"name\": \"Taiga Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.taigaTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [690, 260]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's walk through building this n8n workflow from the ground up, as if I'm planning it out step by step.\n\nThe user's request is quite specific: \"Create an n8n workflow with a Taiga Trigger node. Configure it as a webhook with ID `53939c3e-7dc6-4fdf-94d8-d29f92f8fa12` for project `385605`, using the 'taiga' TaigaCloudApi credentials.\"\n\nOkay, the very first thing I need to do when building any workflow is determine its starting point. How does this workflow get activated? The prompt clearly states \"a Taiga Trigger node\" and \"Configure it as a webhook.\" This immediately tells me what my first (and, in this case, only) node needs to be. It has to be a \"Trigger\" node, and specifically one that integrates with Taiga.\n\nSo, I'd go into the n8n editor, search for \"Taiga,\" and look for a trigger option.\n\n*Node 1: Taiga Trigger*\n\nBased on the JSON, the node type I'm looking for is `n8n-nodes-base.taigaTrigger`. This is perfect. This particular node type is designed exactly for this purpose: to act as an incoming webhook listener specifically for events originating from a Taiga instance. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which means we're using a specific iteration of this node. It's good to specify the version to ensure consistency, as node updates can sometimes introduce changes.\n\nNow, let's configure this `Taiga Trigger` node.\n\nFirst, I'd give it a clear `name`. The JSON specifies \"Taiga Trigger,\" which is straightforward and descriptive. It tells me exactly what this node does at a glance.\n\nNext, I need to consider its `position` on the canvas. The JSON sets it at `[690, 260]`. This is purely for visual layout. When I'm starting a new workflow, I usually place my first node somewhere in the middle-left, leaving room for subsequent nodes to branch out to the right. This specific coordinate helps with consistent layout if I'm regenerating a known workflow.\n\nNow for the critical functional aspects. The user wants this to be a webhook. The `Taiga Trigger` node inherently functions as a webhook listener.\n\nThere's a `webhookId` specified: `\"53939c3e-7dc6-4fdf-94d8-d29f92f8fa12\"`. This is important. When n8n creates a webhook, it typically generates a unique ID for it. However, by providing a specific `webhookId` here, it means we want to either use an already existing, known ID for this webhook endpoint, or we want to ensure that this specific ID is used when the webhook is created or registered with Taiga. This makes the webhook URL predictable and stable for external systems like Taiga to call.\n\nThen, under `parameters`, I see `{\"projectId\": 385605}`. This is crucial for filtering. The user explicitly stated \"for project `385605`.\" By configuring the `projectId` parameter within the Taiga Trigger, I'm instructing the node to only process events that are related to this specific project ID from Taiga. This prevents the workflow from being triggered by events from other Taiga projects that aren't relevant to this particular automation. It's an efficient way to narrow down the scope of the trigger.\n\nFinally, `credentials: {\"taigaCloudApi\": \"taiga\"}`. This is how the Taiga Trigger node will authenticate or identify with the Taiga cloud service. It's referencing a named credential set. So, somewhere in n8n's credentials section, there's a set of \"TaigaCloudApi\" credentials named \"taiga.\" These credentials would contain the necessary authentication details (like an API key or an OAuth token) that allow n8n to connect to and interact with the Taiga service, enabling it to set up the webhook or verify incoming requests. I wouldn't put the actual API key or sensitive data directly in the workflow JSON; this reference is the secure and standard way to handle it.\n\nAs for `connections`, the JSON shows an empty `{}` object. This is perfectly normal and expected for a workflow that currently only consists of a single trigger node. A trigger node is the starting point and doesn't receive any incoming connections from other nodes within the workflow. If I were to add more nodes, say, a node to process the incoming Taiga data, then I would create a connection *from* this `Taiga Trigger` node *to* the next node, and that connection would then be reflected here. But for just the trigger, no connections are needed yet.\n\nSo, this workflow effectively sets up a dedicated listening post for a very specific Taiga project, ready to catch any events that come its way and kick off further automation, even though no further automation steps are defined yet. It's a solid, well-defined starting point." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'Test workflow 2' that begins with a manual trigger node.

The user wants an inactive workflow named 'Test workflow 2'. It needs to kick off manually, process some data with a code node, specifically adding a field, and then be tagged.\n\nThe very first thing I need to think about is how this workflow will start. The prompt explicitly says it \"begins with a manual trigger node.\" Looking at the provided JSON, I see a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is perfect. A manual trigger node, often named \"On clicking 'execute'\" by default, is exactly what's needed for a workflow that will be run by a user directly, rather than on a schedule or via a webhook. It doesn't require any specific parameters for its basic operation, so the empty `parameters: {}` block in the JSON makes complete sense here. Its sole purpose is to initiate the workflow when I hit the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n interface.\n\nNext, the prompt states that this manual trigger \"connects to a code node which adds a `myNewField` property with a value of `1` to each input item.\" So, my immediate thought goes to, \"How do I implement custom logic like adding a field?\" A `Code` node is the natural fit for this kind of requirement. I'd look for `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.code\"` in the JSON, and indeed, there it is with `typeVersion: 1`. This node allows me to write JavaScript to manipulate the incoming data, which is exactly what's needed here.\n\nNow, let's consider the configuration of this `Code` node. The core of its functionality will be within its `jsCode` parameter. The goal is to add `myNewField: 1` to *each* input item. The code snippet provided in the JSON is:\n\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\n\nThis code is precisely what I would write. It uses `$input.all()` to get all items coming into the node, iterates through them using a `for...of` loop, and for each `item`, it accesses `item.json` (which is where the actual data payload resides) and assigns `myNewField` with the value `1`. The crucial `return $input.all();` ensures that all the modified items are passed on to the next node in the workflow, maintaining the data flow. This is a very standard and efficient way to apply a transformation to every item.\n\nWith the nodes defined, the next step is connecting them. The prompt clearly states the manual trigger \"connects to a code node.\" Looking at the `connections` object in the JSON, I can see `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This tells me that the primary output (labeled 'main') of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node (the manual trigger) feeds directly into the primary input (also labeled 'main') of the \"Code\" node. This creates a linear flow: trigger the workflow, and then the code node processes the initial (empty, in this case, from the trigger) item, adding the new field.\n\nFinally, there are the workflow-level settings and tags. The prompt asks for the workflow to be \"inactive\" and tagged with \"other-tag-1\" and \"other-tag-2.\"\nThe JSON shows `\"active\": false`, which perfectly matches the \"inactive\" requirement.\nAnd then, looking at the `tags` array: `[{\"name\": \"other-tag-1\", ...}, {\"name\": \"other-tag-2\", ...}]`. This confirms that the workflow is correctly tagged with the specified names. These tags are useful for organization and filtering within the n8n interface. The other metadata in the `meta` and `hash` fields are internal n8n identifiers and versioning, not something I'd manually configure during design, but they are present for the system to manage. The `settings` object is empty, which is fine since no specific workflow-level settings like error handling or concurrency limits were requested." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that starts with a manual trigger, which then connects to two consecutive Gmail nodes, both configured to perform a 'get' operation.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\"}, \"name\": \"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 2.1, \"position\": [900, 460]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 460]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\"}, \"name\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 2.1, \"position\": [680, 460]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Gmail\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow. The prompt is pretty clear: it needs to begin with a manual trigger, followed by two Gmail nodes, both set to 'get' data.\n\nFirst things first, I always like to lay down the initial trigger, as that's the entry point for the entire workflow. The prompt specifically asks for a manual trigger. So, I'd bring in the `manualTrigger` node. Looking at the JSON, it's identified as `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it allows someone to manually initiate the workflow, usually by clicking a 'Test workflow' button in the n8n editor, or a 'Execute workflow' button in a production environment. Its purpose is purely to kick off the process, so it doesn't really have any complex parameters to configure, as seen by its empty `parameters: {}` in the JSON. It just signals the start.\n\nNext, the prompt states we need \"two consecutive Gmail nodes.\" So, following our manual trigger, the first node will be a Gmail one. I'll drag and drop a `Gmail` node onto the canvas. Looking at the JSON, this node is `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\"`, with a `typeVersion` of `2.1`. This is the right choice because the requirement is to interact with Gmail, specifically to 'get' information. When I'm setting this up, I'd connect the `manualTrigger` node's main output to this `Gmail` node's main input. This ensures that when the manual trigger is activated, it passes an empty item (or a default item) to the Gmail node, signaling it to execute.\n\nNow, for the configuration of this first Gmail node. The prompt is explicit: \"both configured to perform a 'get' operation.\" So, I'd open up its settings and make sure the 'Operation' field is set to 'Get'. In the JSON, this is reflected in `parameters: {\"operation\": \"get\"}`. Beyond the operation, this node would require credentials to connect to a Gmail account, but those details are not part of the `parameters` block in the JSON and would be configured separately in n8n's credential management system. I would also consider if there are any specific messages or parts of messages to retrieve, like the `message ID` or `query` to narrow down the 'get' operation, but for this general requirement, simply setting 'get' is enough to satisfy the prompt.\n\nMoving on, the prompt asks for *two* consecutive Gmail nodes. So, I need another one. I'd add a second `Gmail` node. Just like the first, it's `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\"` and `typeVersion: 2.1`. I'd connect the main output of the *first* Gmail node to the main input of this *second* Gmail node. This creates the \"consecutive\" flow. Data retrieved by the first Gmail node, if any, would then be passed as input to this second Gmail node.\n\nAnd similar to the first Gmail node, this second one also needs to be configured for a 'get' operation. So, I'd go into its parameters and ensure `operation: \"get\"` is selected. The JSON shows `parameters: {\"operation\": \"get\"}` for this node as well, confirming the configuration. Just like the previous one, it would also need the appropriate Gmail credentials configured in n8n. The fact that the second Gmail node is unnamed in the JSON (`\"name\": \"\"`) while the first one is named \"Gmail\" is a minor detail; n8n would typically auto-assign a name like \"Gmail1\" or \"Gmail2\" to avoid confusion, but it doesn't impact functionality here. The important part is that it's a Gmail node and it's doing a 'get' operation.\n\nSo, the flow is: manual trigger starts it, passes control to the first Gmail 'get' node, which then executes, and passes its output (or just signals completion) to the second Gmail 'get' node, which then executes. This setup perfectly matches the requirements: manual trigger, two consecutive Gmail nodes, both performing a 'get' operation." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that reads the `\/data\/demo1.wav` file and sends its raw binary content via a POST request to `https:\/\/api.wit.ai\/speech?v=20200513`, including `Authorization` and `Content-Type: audio\/wav` headers.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"filePath\": \"\/data\/demo1.wav\"}, \"name\": \"Read Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/api.wit.ai\/speech?v=20200513\", \"options\": {\"bodyContentType\": \"raw\"}, \"requestMethod\": \"POST\", \"jsonParameters\": true, \"sendBinaryData\": true, \"headerParametersJson\": \"={{JSON.parse('{\\\"Authorization\\\":\\\"Bearer {your_token_goes_here}\\\", \\\"Content-Type\\\":\\\"audio\/wav\\\"}')}}\"}, \"name\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Read Binary File\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTTP Request\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's design this n8n workflow step by step, thinking through each part.\n\nThe core requirement here is to read a specific file, `\/data\/demo1.wav`, and then send its raw binary content to an external API using a POST request with specific headers.\n\nMy first thought is, how do I get the file content into the workflow?

It's specifically designed to read files and output their content in a binary format, which is exactly what we need for sending \"raw binary content.\"\n\nSo, I'll add the `Read Binary File` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile` and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n\nNow, how do I configure this `Read Binary File` node? The prompt explicitly states the file path is `\/data\/demo1.wav`. So, I'll go into the node's parameters and set the `filePath` to `\/data\/demo1.wav`. This tells the node exactly which file to pick up.\n\nOnce the file is read, the next step is to send this content via a POST request to `https:\/\/api.wit.ai\/speech?v=20200513`. This clearly calls for an `HTTP Request` node. This node is n8n's workhorse for making any kind of web request.\n\nSo, I'll add the `HTTP Request` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest` and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n\nNow, how should these two nodes connect? The `Read Binary File` node will output the binary data of the file. The `HTTP Request` node needs to take that binary data and put it into the body of the POST request. A direct main connection from the `Read Binary File` node to the `HTTP Request` node is the most logical way to pass this data. The binary output from the first node will be provided as input to the second node for its request body.\n\nNext, I need to configure the `HTTP Request` node according to the prompt's specifications.\n\nFirst, the URL. The prompt provides it directly: `https:\/\/api.wit.ai\/speech?v=20200513`. So, I'll set the `url` parameter in the `HTTP Request` node to this value.\n\nSecond, the request method. The prompt says \"sends its raw binary content via a POST request\". So, I'll set the `requestMethod` parameter to `POST`.\n\nThird, and very importantly, how do I send the \"raw binary content\"? This requires specific settings for the request body.\nI'll look at the `options` parameter. Within `options`, I need to ensure the `bodyContentType` is set to `raw`. This tells n8n not to try to interpret the incoming binary data as JSON or form data, but to send it as-is.\nAdditionally, there's a `sendBinaryData` parameter, which I must set to `true`. This is absolutely crucial, as it ensures that the binary data received from the `Read Binary File` node is correctly transmitted as the body of the HTTP request. If this were `false`, n8n might try to stringify or otherwise mishandle the binary data.\n\nFinally, the headers. The prompt specifies including `Authorization` and `Content-Type: audio\/wav` headers.\nFor this, I'll use the `headerParametersJson` parameter. I'll configure it with a JSON object that includes both headers.\nThe `Authorization` header would be set to `Bearer {your_token_goes_here}`. This `{your_token_goes_here}` is a placeholder where a specific API token would be provided, possibly using an n8n credential or an environment variable, but I'm just generically noting its presence as specified.\nThe `Content-Type` header is critical for the receiving API to understand the data. It's specified as `audio\/wav`, so I'll set that. This tells Wit.ai that the binary data in the request body is a WAV audio file.\nAlso, `jsonParameters` is set to `true`, which is generally good practice when configuring parameters with JSON expressions, even when sending raw binary data in the body. It ensures the header object is parsed correctly.\n\nSo, to recap the `HTTP Request` node's configuration:\n- `url`: `https:\/\/api.wit.ai\/speech?v=20200513`\n- `requestMethod`: `POST`\n- `options.bodyContentType`: `raw`\n- `sendBinaryData`: `true`\n- `headerParametersJson`: Configured with a JSON object containing `Authorization` (with a placeholder for the token) and `Content-Type: audio\/wav`.\n- `jsonParameters`: `true`\n\nThis setup ensures the file is read, and its raw binary content is correctly sent to the specified API endpoint with the necessary headers, fulfilling all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers when a new activity is created in Strava, sending a datapoint to your Beeminder \"testing\" goal. The comment for the Beeminder entry should be the name of the Strava activity.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"event\": \"create\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Strava Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.stravaTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [470, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"goalName\": \"testing\", \"additionalFields\": {\"comment\": \"={{$json[\\\"object_data\\\"][\\\"name\\\"]}}\"}}, \"name\": \"Beeminder\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.beeminder\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [670, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Strava Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Beeminder\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start thinking about how to build this n8n workflow. The goal here is pretty clear: we need to kick off an action when something happens in Strava, and then use information from that Strava event to update a Beeminder goal.\n\nThe very first thing I need to figure out is what will *trigger* this workflow. The prompt says \"triggers when a new activity is created in Strava.\" This immediately tells me I need a trigger node that connects to Strava. Looking at the available nodes, a dedicated Strava Trigger node seems perfect for this.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a **Strava Trigger** node. Its type would be `n8n-nodes-base.stravaTrigger` and it's using `typeVersion: 1`. This node is ideal because it's built to listen for specific events directly from the Strava platform via webhooks. For the configuration of this node, I'd set the 'Event' parameter. The prompt explicitly states \"when a new activity is created,\" so I would select 'create' for the event type. This ensures the workflow only runs when a new activity is logged on Strava, not for updates or deletions. Of course, for this to work, it would need Strava credentials configured, which would be managed in n8n's credentials section, linking our n8n instance to a Strava account. The `webhookId` is something n8n generates automatically once the workflow is saved and activated, serving as its unique identifier for Strava to send data to.\n\nOnce the Strava Trigger node successfully detects a new activity, it will output data about that activity. Now, what's the next step? The prompt says \"sending a datapoint to your Beeminder 'testing' goal.\" This means the next logical step is to interact with Beeminder.\n\nSo, I'd connect the **Strava Trigger** node to a **Beeminder** node. This connection would be a standard 'main' connection, meaning the data output by the Strava Trigger node will flow directly into the Beeminder node for processing.\n\nNow, let's configure this **Beeminder** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.beeminder` and it's also `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed to interact with the Beeminder API to add datapoints, update goals, and so on.\n\nThe prompt specifies a few things for the Beeminder action:\n1. It needs to send a datapoint to the \"testing\" goal.\n2. The comment for the Beeminder entry should be the name of the Strava activity.\n\nSo, within the Beeminder node's parameters, I would set the 'Goal Name' to \"testing\". This directly fulfills the first requirement.\n\nNext, for the comment, I need to dynamically pull the activity name from the data that came from the Strava Trigger node. This is where expressions come in handy. I'd typically look at the sample output from the Strava Trigger node (after running it once or inspecting its documentation) to understand the structure of the incoming data. The JSON provides a hint for this: `={{$json[\"object_data\"][\"name\"]}}`. This expression tells me that the Strava activity name is nested within an 'object_data' field, under a 'name' key, from the main JSON output of the previous node. So, in the 'Additional Fields' section of the Beeminder node, I would add a 'comment' field and use this expression. This ensures that whatever the name of the Strava activity is (e.g., \"Morning Run,\" \"Evening Cycle\"), it will automatically become the comment for the Beeminder datapoint. Just like the Strava node, this Beeminder node would also require appropriate API credentials to be configured in n8n, allowing it to authenticate with the Beeminder service.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow starts with listening for a specific event on Strava, then processes that event to send a customized datapoint to Beeminder. The flow is very linear and direct, addressing all parts of the prompt. No complex branching or error handling is specified, so a simple two-node linear flow works perfectly." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Test workflow 2' that starts with a Manual Trigger node, connecting to a Code node which adds a field named 'myNewField' with a value of 1 to each input item.

So, I'd go ahead and configure those global workflow settings right away. It's a good practice to set the active state as requested at the beginning, so it doesn't accidentally run while I'm still building or testing it. Also, the prompt asks for specific tags: 'other-tag-1' and 'other-tag-2'. I'll make sure to add these to the workflow's overall settings. These tags are useful for organization and filtering later on.\n\nNow, onto the actual workflow structure. The prompt says it \"starts with a Manual Trigger node\". This is my foundational piece.\n\nSo, the very first node I'd place on the canvas would be a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the provided JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This choice makes perfect sense because a manual trigger is exactly what you'd use if you want to kick off a workflow on demand, perhaps for testing during development, or for a one-off execution. It's simple, doesn't require external events, and gives me direct control over when it runs. Its default name, as seen in the JSON, is \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is perfectly fine for this purpose. There are no specific parameters to configure for a basic manual trigger; it simply provides an empty item to start the workflow's execution flow.\n\nNext, the prompt specifies that this Manual Trigger node should connect to \"a Code node which adds a field named 'myNewField' with a value of 1 to each input item.\" This clearly points me to the next node.\n\nSo, after the Manual Trigger, I'd add a **Code** node. The JSON confirms its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.code` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. A Code node is incredibly powerful and necessary when you need to execute custom JavaScript logic that isn't easily achievable with other, more specialized nodes. In this case, the requirement to programmatically add a new field with a specific value to *each* incoming item is a perfect scenario for a Code node.\n\nOnce I have the Code node on the canvas, I need to connect it. The data flow here is straightforward: the output of the Manual Trigger node needs to feed into the Code node. So, I'd draw a connection from the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (Manual Trigger) node to the `main` input of the \"Code\" node. This ensures that any items generated by the trigger (even if it's just one empty item by default) will be passed to the Code node for processing.\n\nNow, for configuring the Code node itself. The core of its functionality lies within its `parameters.jsCode`. The prompt specifies adding a field `myNewField` with a value of `1` to each input item. The JavaScript code provided in the JSON directly implements this:\n\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\n\nI'd input this exact code into the `jsCode` field of the Code node. Let's break down why this code is suitable:\n* `$input.all()`: This is a crucial n8n helper that gets all the items passed into the Code node from the previous node. This allows the code to operate on potentially multiple items, even though the Manual Trigger initially provides only one.\n* `for (const item of $input.all())`: This loop iterates through each of those input items. This is key because the requirement is to add the field to *each* input item, not just the first one.\n* `item.json.myNewField = 1;`: Inside the loop, for every `item`, it accesses its `json` data structure (where the actual data resides) and then creates or overwrites a field named `myNewField`, assigning it the value `1`. This directly fulfills the core requirement.\n* `return $input.all();`: After processing all items, it's essential to return the modified items so they can be passed on to any subsequent nodes in the workflow. Returning `$input.all()` ensures all items, now with the new field, are outputted.\n\nThis setup precisely addresses all parts of the user's prompt regarding the nodes, their types, connections, and specific functionality. The workflow is inactive, has the correct name, and includes the specified tags. I'm satisfied with this design." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that reads `spreadsheet.xls`, processes the spreadsheet data, and inserts it into a PostgreSQL table named `product` using the `name` and `ean` columns.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"filePath\": \"spreadsheet.xls\"}, \"name\": \"Read Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 650]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Spreadsheet File1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 650]}, {\"parameters\": {\"table\": \"product\", \"columns\": \"name,ean\"}, \"name\": \"Insert Rows1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.postgres\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [750, 650]}], \"connections\": {\"Read Binary File\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Spreadsheet File1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Spreadsheet File1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Insert Rows1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The goal is clear: read an Excel file, parse its data, and then insert specific columns into a PostgreSQL table. I'll build this step by step, thinking about what each part needs to do.\n\nFirst things first, we need to get the actual `spreadsheet.xls` file into the workflow. How do we do that? It's a file on the file system, so the most direct way to access it in n8n is to read it.\n\nSo, my initial thought is to start with a node that can read local files. That would be the **Read Binary File** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Why this node?** It's specifically designed to read files from the file system and output their content as binary data, which is exactly what we need as the starting point for processing an XLS file.\n* **Configuration:** Looking at the JSON, its `filePath` parameter is set to `spreadsheet.xls`. This is perfect; it tells the node precisely which file to fetch. So, it will go and grab the raw binary content of that spreadsheet.\n\nOnce we have the binary content of `spreadsheet.xls`, what's next? The file is an Excel spreadsheet, meaning it's not plain text or simple JSON that n8n can immediately understand as structured data. It's binary, and it needs to be parsed. We need something that can take that binary spreadsheet data and transform it into a usable format, like individual JSON items representing rows.\n\nThis leads me to the **Spreadsheet File** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Why this node?** This node is built precisely for this purpose: to take binary spreadsheet data (like XLS, XLSX, or CSV) and convert it into structured JSON items, where each item represents a row and the column headers become the keys. It's the perfect intermediary between reading the raw file and inserting it into a database.\n* **Connection:** The `Read Binary File` node will output the binary content of the spreadsheet, and this `Spreadsheet File` node will connect to its `main` output to receive that binary data. This is a crucial connection because the binary data needs to be passed directly.\n* **Configuration:** Its `parameters` object is empty. This implies it will operate with its default settings, which typically means it will read the first sheet in the spreadsheet and try to auto-detect the data types and headers. For a simple spreadsheet, this usually works well.\n\nNow that the `Spreadsheet File` node has parsed the XLS data, it will output a collection of JSON items, where each item represents a row from the spreadsheet, with keys like `name` and `ean` (assuming those are column headers in the spreadsheet). The final step, according to the prompt, is to insert this data into a PostgreSQL table.\n\nFor that, we'll need a node that can interact with a PostgreSQL database. The **Postgres** node is the obvious choice.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.postgres`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Why this node?** It's the dedicated n8n node for performing operations on PostgreSQL databases, which is exactly what the user asked for. We need to insert data, and this node can handle that.\n* **Connection:** This `Postgres` node will connect to the `main` output of the `Spreadsheet File` node. The `Spreadsheet File` node outputs the structured data, and each of those data items will become a row to be inserted by the `Postgres` node. So, the data flows from the parsing step directly into the database insertion step.\n* **Configuration:**\n * `table`: The `table` parameter is set to `product`. This directly corresponds to the user's requirement to insert data into a table named `product`.\n * `columns`: The `columns` parameter is set to `name,ean`. This is key. It tells the PostgreSQL node which specific columns from the incoming data items should be inserted. The node will look for `name` and `ean` properties in the JSON items it receives from the `Spreadsheet File` node. If the spreadsheet headers are indeed 'name' and 'ean', this will work perfectly.\n * `credentials`: The `credentials` are set to `postgres`. This is where the actual connection details to the database (like host, port, database name, username, and password) would be securely stored and referenced. It's a placeholder for the authentication required to access the database, ensuring sensitive information isn't hardcoded in the workflow JSON itself.\n\nAnd that completes the chain.

It's the standard way to expose an HTTP endpoint that can initiate a workflow. Looking at the JSON, indeed, the first node is a `Webhook` node, specifically `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\"` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is a solid choice for an entry point when external systems need to call into the workflow.\n\nNow, how should this webhook be configured? I see it has a `path` parameter set. This is important because it defines the specific URL endpoint for this particular webhook. So, when someone wants to trigger this workflow, they'd send a request to a URL that includes this path. Also, the `responseMode` is set to `\"responseNode\"`. This is absolutely crucial for this workflow. If it were set to something like \"onReceived\", the webhook would send an immediate empty success response, and we wouldn't be able to send the Google Docs content back. By setting it to \"responseNode\", we're telling n8n to hold open the connection and wait for a dedicated `Respond to Webhook` node later in the workflow to send the actual response. This is exactly what the prompt requires: \"responds to the webhook with the fetched text content.\"\n\nOkay, so we have our trigger. The next step, according to the prompt, is to \"fetch content from the Google Docs URL.\" This means we need a node that can interact with Google Docs. Naturally, my mind goes straight to a `Google Docs` node. Let's see what the JSON has... Yes, right after the Webhook, there's a `Google Docs` node (`type: \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\"`, `typeVersion: 2`). This looks like the perfect candidate for fetching the document.\n\nConnecting the `Webhook` node to the `Google Docs` node makes perfect sense. The data flow here is straightforward: once the webhook receives a request, it triggers the `Google Docs` node to perform its operation.\n\nNow, let's configure this `Google Docs` node. The main goal here is to *get* the content, so the `operation` parameter should definitely be set to `\"get\"`. This ensures it's trying to retrieve data rather than create, update, or delete anything. There's also a `documentURL` parameter, which is where the specific Google Docs URL provided in the prompt would be configured. Of course, interacting with Google Docs usually requires authentication, so I'd expect to see some form of credentials attached, which indeed there are in the `credentials` section. This ensures the workflow has the necessary permissions to access the document.\n\nOnce the `Google Docs` node successfully fetches the content, what's next? The prompt says \"then responds to the webhook with the fetched text content.\" This tells me the final step is to send that fetched data back to whoever called the initial webhook. For this, we use the `Respond to Webhook` node. And looking at the JSON, that's exactly what we have: `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\"`, `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node is specifically designed to finalize a webhook request that was initiated with `responseMode: \"responseNode\"` on the `Webhook` node.\n\nWe need to connect the `Google Docs` node to this `Respond to Webhook` node. This ensures that the response node only fires *after* the document content has been successfully retrieved.\n\nFinally, how do we configure the `Respond to Webhook` node to send the *text content* specifically? The prompt asks for \"fetched text content.\" So, the `respondWith` parameter should be set to `\"text\"`. This is important because we just want the raw text, not a JSON object wrapping it or anything else. Then, for the `responseBody`, we need to tell it where to find that text. I see the configuration `responseBody: \"={{ $json.content }}\"`. This is a common n8n expression. It implies that the `Google Docs` node, when it successfully fetches the document, will output the actual text content in a field named `content` within its JSON output. So, we're simply taking that `content` field directly from the previous node's output and sending it back as the webhook response. If the Google Docs node output had named it something else, say `documentText`, I'd adjust this expression accordingly to `={{ $json.documentText }}`.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps up the flow. We have the trigger, the data fetching, and the response, all linked together logically to fulfill the prompt's requirements." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

This workflow should then use a DebugHelper node to generate 100 items of random data, seeded with '0'.\"\n\nRight, so the first thing that jumps out is the starting point: \"a manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me which node I need to begin with.\n\nI'd search for a \"manual trigger\" node, and in n8n, that's typically represented by the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` type. Looking at the provided JSON, it confirms this choice with `{\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1}`. I'd drag that onto the canvas. Its name in the JSON is \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", which is a pretty standard, descriptive name for it. As for its parameters, the JSON shows `{\"parameters\": {}}`, which means it doesn't need any special configuration. It simply acts as a starting point; when I click \"Execute Workflow\" or \"Test Workflow\" in the n8n interface, this node fires and sends an empty item down the line. It's perfect for initiating a test or a workflow that I want to control precisely when it runs. If there were different versions of this node, they might offer additional options, but version 1 here is straightforward and just what's needed.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow \"should then use a DebugHelper node to generate 100 items of random data, seeded with '0'.\" This is the core functionality. So, after my manual trigger, I need a node that can *generate* data, and specifically \"random data\" with a \"seed.\"\n\nThe `DebugHelper` node is an excellent choice for this. It's designed for exactly these kinds of testing and debugging scenarios \u2013 simulating data, checking values, or, as in this case, generating mock data. Looking at the JSON, it confirms this choice with `{\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\", \"typeVersion\": 1}`. I'd drag that node onto the canvas as well.\n\nNow, I need to connect them. The `DebugHelper` node should execute *after* the `manualTrigger` starts the workflow. So, I'd draw a connection from the \"main\" output of \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\" to the \"main\" input of the \"DebugHelper\" node. The JSON's `connections` section confirms this: `\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This ensures that when the manual trigger runs, it passes control to the DebugHelper.\n\nFinally, I need to configure the `DebugHelper` node according to the prompt's requirements: \"generate 100 items of random data, seeded with '0'.\"\nLooking at the JSON's `DebugHelper` node's parameters:\n* `\"category\": \"randomData\"`: This is key. The `DebugHelper` node has different \"categories\" of operations it can perform. Setting it to \"randomData\" tells it precisely what I want it to do \u2013 generate random data. This aligns perfectly with the requirement.\n* `\"randomDataSeed\": \"0\"`: This parameter is for the seeding. By setting it to '0', I ensure that every time this workflow runs with this configuration, the \"random\" data generated will be exactly the same sequence. This is super important for reproducibility when testing or debugging. If it were truly unseeded, the data would change with every execution, making it harder to verify consistent behavior.\n* `\"randomDataCount\": 100`: This directly fulfills the \"generate 100 items\" requirement. The node will produce an array of 100 separate items, each containing randomly generated data (like names, addresses, emails, etc., depending on what the `DebugHelper` node's random data generator includes).\n\nSo, to recap my mental process: start with the trigger as requested, then pick the node that can perform the specific data generation task, connect them in sequence, and finally, configure that data generation node with the exact parameters for the type of data, the count, and crucially, the seed for reproducibility. It looks like a solid, straightforward workflow that precisely meets the prompt's criteria." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger node.

I'll use the provided JSON as my blueprint.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. The prompt explicitly says it \"starts with a manual trigger node.\" This is a foundational step for any workflow that needs to be initiated on demand, perhaps for testing purposes or for a job that's run periodically by a human.\n\nSo, the very first node I'll drag onto my canvas is the **Manual Trigger** node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. This is the go-to node for kicking off a workflow manually. It's incredibly simple; its main purpose is just to start the execution when you click the \"Execute Workflow\" button or its equivalent.\n* **Why this node:** It perfectly fulfills the requirement of a manual start. There are other triggers (HTTP, Cron, Webhook, etc.), but for a user-initiated process, `manualTrigger` is ideal.\n* **Configuration:** Looking at the JSON, its `parameters` object is empty. This makes sense; a manual trigger doesn't usually need complex configuration beyond just existing to initiate a run. It just sits there, waiting for a click.\n* **Type Version:** It specifies `typeVersion: 1`. This is a stable, common version for this basic node, indicating it's using the standard functionality without any legacy or bleeding-edge features that might change its behavior.\n* **Placement:** The JSON indicates `position: [250, 300]`. I'll mentally place it on the left side of my canvas, as it's the initiator.\n\nAlright, with our trigger in place, what's next? The prompt says, \"This node should then connect to a Segment node configured to track an empty event and requiring Segment API credentials.\" This tells me exactly what the next logical step is and how it needs to be set up.\n\nSo, my next move is to add the Segment node.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.segment`. This is the dedicated node for interacting with Segment, offering specific operations like tracking events, identifying users, or recording page views.\n* **Why this node:** To send data to Segment, this is undoubtedly the correct node. It abstracts away the API calls, making it much simpler to integrate.\n* **Connection:** The JSON confirms the `manualTrigger` connects to this Segment node. I'd draw a line from the output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node (which is the Manual Trigger) to the input of this new \"Segment\" node. This ensures that once the manual trigger fires, the workflow execution flow passes directly to the Segment node. The connection is a simple `main` to `main` connection, meaning it just passes the flow of execution, rather than specific data items in this case.\n* **Placement:** The JSON has it at `position: [450, 300]`, which is directly to the right of the trigger, maintaining a clean left-to-right flow.\n\nNow for the crucial part: configuring the Segment node itself. The prompt is very specific: \"configured to track an empty event and requiring Segment API credentials.\"\n* **Parameters - `resource: \"track\"`:** The `parameters` object in the JSON shows `{\"event\": \"\", \"resource\": \"track\"}`. The `resource` property set to `\"track\"` is precisely what's needed to send an event to Segment. Segment's `track` method is fundamental for understanding user behavior by recording actions they perform.\n* **Parameters - `event: \"\"`:** This is an interesting instruction: \"track an empty event.\" Setting the `event` parameter to an empty string (`\"\"`) directly fulfills this. Usually, you'd give an event a descriptive name like \"Product Viewed\" or \"Button Clicked,\" but for this specific requirement, an empty string is what we need. This could be for a very specific internal purpose or testing.\n* **Credentials:** The prompt states \"requiring Segment API credentials.\" The JSON shows `credentials: {\"segmentApi\": \"\"}`. This tells me that this Segment node needs to be linked to a credential entry in n8n. This is where you would configure your actual Segment Write Key. I'll leave it as an empty placeholder in the workflow definition, as the actual API key is sensitive and would be provided by the user in their n8n instance's credentials store. It's essential for the node to authenticate successfully with the Segment API.\n* **Type Version:** Similar to the trigger, this node is `typeVersion: 1`. For basic tracking functionality, this version is perfectly adequate. Newer versions might offer more advanced features or slightly different parameter layouts, but for this straightforward task, version 1 is robust enough.\n\nSo, to summarize the Segment node setup: it's a `track` operation, tracking an event with no name, and it requires authentication via an API key that would be configured externally in the n8n environment.\n\nThat's it. We have a manual trigger node feeding into a Segment node, configured exactly as requested. The flow is simple: trigger -> execute Segment action." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFile Advanced Scripting and Expressions' that uses a webhook trigger on path 'onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/AdvancedScriptingAndExpressions'.

The main goal here is to trigger something when a specific path is hit, then grab some content from Google Docs, and finally send that content back as a response.\n\nFirst things first, we need a way to *start* the workflow. The prompt clearly states it should use a webhook trigger. So, the very first node I'd reach for is the **Webhook** node. This is a standard trigger in n8n, perfect for listening for incoming HTTP requests. Looking at the JSON, it's `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is a solid choice because it allows external systems to initiate the workflow.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Webhook node? The prompt specifies a path: \"onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/AdvancedScriptingAndExpressions\". So, I'd set the 'Path' parameter to that exact string. This ensures that the webhook only triggers when a request comes to that specific endpoint. Another important setting for a webhook that needs to send a response back is its 'Response Mode'. The prompt implies we're going to respond with the *extracted content*, so it's best to set the 'Response Mode' to 'Respond with webhook response node'. This defers the actual HTTP response until a later node in the workflow, giving us time to fetch the Google Docs content. If I were to use 'Last Node', the webhook would respond immediately with the output of the *first* node, which isn't what we want here.\n\nOnce the webhook receives a request, what's next? The prompt says we need to \"connect to a Google Docs node to retrieve content\". So, the next logical step is to add a **Google Docs** node. This node, `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, type `typeVersion: 2`, is specifically designed to interact with Google Docs, making it the perfect fit.\n\nThe Google Docs node needs to know what to do. Its 'Operation' should be set to 'Get', as we're trying to retrieve content. For the document itself, it needs a 'Document URL'. I would configure this parameter with the URL of the Google Doc that we want to fetch content from. And, crucially, to access Google Docs, we need authentication. The prompt mentions \"Google Docs account OAuth2 credentials\". So, I would select the appropriate OAuth2 credential for Google Docs in the 'Credentials' section of this node. This allows n8n to securely connect to Google Docs on our behalf.\n\nAfter the Google Docs node successfully retrieves the content, that data will be available in its output. The prompt then states we need to \"respond to the webhook with the extracted content\". This means we need a node specifically for responding to the original webhook request. The **Respond to Webhook** node (`n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, type `typeVersion: 1.1`) is exactly what we need for this. It's designed to close the loop for webhooks that had their 'Response Mode' set to 'Respond with webhook response node'.\n\nFor the Respond to Webhook node, we need to tell it *what* to respond with. The prompt specifies responding with \"extracted content via the expression `={{ $json.content }}`\". So, I would set the 'Respond With' parameter to 'Text'. Then, in the 'Response Body' field, I'd enter the expression `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression is critical because it tells the node to take the `content` field from the output of the *previous* node (which is our Google Docs node) and send that back as the response body. This `content` field is where the Google Docs node typically places the extracted text from the document. The `typeVersion: 1.1` for this node is standard and handles expressions well.\n\nAnd that completes the flow. The Webhook listens, passes control to Google Docs to fetch the document's content, and then Google Docs passes that content to the Respond to Webhook node, which sends it back to the original caller. The connections are straightforward: Webhook to Google Docs, and Google Docs to Respond to Webhook, ensuring a linear flow of execution and data." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that first creates example JSON data, then converts it into a base64-encoded binary object, and finally writes this binary data to a file named `test.json`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"test.json\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [800, 350]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"items[0].binary = {\\n data: {\\n data: new Buffer(JSON.stringify(items[0].json, null, 2)).toString('base64')\\n }\\n};\\nreturn items;\"}, \"name\": \"Make Binary\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.function\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 350]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"items[0].json = {\\n \\\"text\\\": \\\"asdf\\\",\\n \\\"number\\\": 1\\n};\\nreturn items;\"}, \"name\": \"Create Example Data\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.function\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [390, 350]}], \"connections\": {\"Make Binary\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Create Example Data\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Make Binary\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think about how to build this n8n workflow from scratch, step by step, aiming to achieve the user's goal: generate example JSON, convert it to a base64-encoded binary, and then write it to a file named `test.json`.\n\nFirst, I need to figure out how to create that initial example JSON data. n8n has several ways to generate data, but for simple, custom JSON, a Function node is often the most straightforward and flexible choice. It allows me to define exactly what I want the data to look like using JavaScript.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a **Function** node. I'll name it something descriptive like \"Create Example Data\". Looking at the provided JSON, this node is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.function` and `typeVersion: 1`. This type is perfect because I can write custom JavaScript to manipulate the incoming `items` array. In this case, there are no incoming items yet, so I'll just create the data directly.\n\nInside this \"Create Example Data\" node, for its `parameters.functionCode`, I'll set up a basic JSON object. The goal is just to have some data to work with. So, I'll put `items[0].json = {\"text\": \"asdf\", \"number\": 1};`. This stores my example JSON under the `json` key of the first item, making it easily accessible for subsequent nodes. Then, of course, I `return items;` to pass it along.\n\nNext, the prompt asks to convert this JSON into a base64-encoded binary object. This is a bit more complex than just setting a JSON field; it requires specific data manipulation: taking the JSON, stringifying it, encoding it, and then structuring it in a way that n8n recognizes as a binary object. Again, a **Function** node seems like the most suitable tool here due to its flexibility with custom JavaScript.\n\nSo, I'll add another **Function** node, connecting it directly after \"Create Example Data\". I'll call this one \"Make Binary\". It's also of `type: n8n-nodes-base.function` and `typeVersion: 1`. The connection will be a standard \"main\" connection, ensuring the output from \"Create Example Data\" flows into \"Make Binary\".\n\nNow, for the `parameters.functionCode` within \"Make Binary\", I need to perform a few operations. I'll access the JSON data that came from the previous node via `items[0].json`. First, I need to convert that JSON object into a string. `JSON.stringify(items[0].json, null, 2)` is great because `null, 2` will pretty-print the JSON with 2-space indentation, which is nice if someone were to read the raw output later. Then, to get a base64 string, I'll use Node.js's built-in `Buffer` functionality: `new Buffer(...).toString('base64')`. The crucial part for n8n is how this base64 string is structured for binary output. n8n expects binary data to be placed in `items[index].binary[propertyName].data.data`. So, I'll set `items[0].binary = { data: { data: new Buffer(JSON.stringify(items[0].json, null, 2)).toString('base64') } };`. This creates a binary object named `data` containing my base64-encoded JSON string. Finally, as before, I `return items;` to send this newly formatted binary data to the next step.\n\nThe final requirement is to write this binary data to a file named `test.json`. n8n has a dedicated node for this: the \"Write Binary File\" node. This is perfect because it's designed specifically for taking binary data from previous nodes and saving it to a specified file.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Write Binary File** node, connecting it directly after the \"Make Binary\" node. This node is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile` and `typeVersion: 1`. The connection is again a standard \"main\" connection, ensuring the binary data from \"Make Binary\" is passed to it.\n\nFor the configuration of this \"Write Binary File\" node, it's quite straightforward. The primary parameter I need to set is `fileName`. The prompt explicitly states the file should be named `test.json`, so I'll enter \"test.json\" into that field. The node will automatically pick up the binary data that \"Make Binary\" has prepared and write it to the specified file. There are other parameters one might consider for things like appending to a file or creating directories, but for this specific request, just setting the `fileName` is sufficient.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It's a clear, sequential flow: generate data, transform it into the required binary format, and then write it out." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers and then sets a field named 'body'.

The user prompt explicitly states \"manually triggers\". This immediately tells me I'll need a node that allows for a manual initiation. Looking at the available nodes in n8n, the \"Manual Trigger\" node is the perfect fit for this. It's designed specifically for when you want to run a workflow with a click, rather than in response to an external event like a webhook or a schedule.\n\nSo, the very first node I'd add would be the **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and in this specific workflow, it's using `typeVersion: 1`. This node is quite simple; it doesn't really have any parameters to configure other than its name. It just serves as the starting point, producing a single empty item to kick off the subsequent operations. I'd typically name it something clear, like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" as seen in the JSON.\n\nNext, the prompt says, \"then sets a field named 'body'. The 'body' field should contain an XML string representing a library with multiple book entries, including titles, authors, publication years, and ISBNs.\" This means I need a way to take the item that came from the Manual Trigger and add a new piece of data to it, specifically a field called `body` that holds a predefined string.\n\nFor this task, the **Set** node is an excellent choice. The Set node, with type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and here `typeVersion: 3.2`, is designed precisely for modifying items by adding, removing, or changing fields. It's very flexible for injecting static data or transforming existing data.\n\nI'll connect the output of the Manual Trigger node directly to the input of this Set node. So, the `main` output of \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" will go into the `main` input of the \"Edit Fields\" (or whatever I name it) node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, the flow of execution immediately passes to the node responsible for setting the data.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Set node? I need to add a new field named 'body' and populate it with that specific XML string.\nWithin the Set node's parameters, I'd go to the \"Fields\" section.\n- I'd click to \"Add Field\".\n- For the `Name`, I'd input `body`, exactly as requested.\n- For the `Value`, instead of referencing another field or an expression, I'll directly paste the complete XML string. The JSON shows this as `stringValue`. This means I'm providing a static string value.\n\nThe XML string itself needs to be well-formed and contain the specified library and book structure. The provided XML in the JSON perfectly fits this:\n```xml\n<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>\n<library>\n <book>\n <title>Introduction to XML<\/title>\n <author>John Doe<\/author>\n <publication_year>2020<\/publication_year>\n <isbn>1234567890<\/isbn>\n <\/book>\n <book>\n <title>Data Science Basics<\/title>\n <author>Jane Smith<\/author>\n <publication_year>2019<\/publication_year>\n <isbn>0987654321<\/isbn>\n <\/book>\n <book>\n <title>Programming in Python<\/title>\n <author>Bob Johnson<\/author>\n <publication_year>2021<\/publication_year>\n <isbn>5432109876<\/isbn>\n <\/book>\n<\/library>\n```\nThis XML clearly defines a `<library>` root element containing three `<book>` elements, each with its `<title>`, `<author>`, `<publication_year>`, and `<isbn>`. This fulfills the requirement for multiple book entries with the specified details.\n\nThe Set node's `options` parameter is empty in the JSON, which implies that no specific options like \"Keep Only Set\" fields are selected. In this simple case, we're just adding a new field to the existing (empty, from the trigger) item, so the default behavior is perfectly fine. The output of this Set node will be an item that now contains the `body` field with the XML content.\n\nAnd that's it!

Looking at the options available in n8n, an \"Interval\" node is the perfect fit for this. It's specifically designed for time-based triggers.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding an **Interval** node.\n* Its type, based on the JSON, is `n8n-nodes-base.interval`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`.\n* Why this node? Well, as I said, it's ideal for setting up recurring schedules. I need the workflow to run \"every 2 hours.\"\n* To configure it, I'd go into its parameters. I'd set the `unit` to `hours` and the `interval` to `2`. This precisely matches what I see in the provided JSON under `parameters: {\"unit\": \"hours\", \"interval\": 2}` for the node named \"2 hours Interval\". It's the starting point of our workflow, so it won't have any incoming connections, but it will definitely send data downstream.\n\nNext, the prompt says, \"It should then pass the data to a Function node to add `myVariable` set to `1` and `myVariable2` set to `\"this is exciting\"` to the item.\"\nThis clearly dictates the next step: a Function node. Specifically, since it's about adding properties to *each item*, a `FunctionItem` node is more appropriate than a generic `Function` node (which processes all items at once).\n\nSo, I'd connect the main output of my \"2 hours Interval\" node to the main input of a **FunctionItem** node.\n* Its type, according to the JSON, is `n8n-nodes-base.functionItem`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n* Why this node? It allows me to execute custom JavaScript code on each individual data item that passes through it. This is perfect for programmatically adding new fields or modifying existing ones, which is exactly what's required here.\n* For the configuration, I need to add `myVariable` and `myVariable2`. In a `FunctionItem` node, the `item` variable represents the current data item. So, I'd write the JavaScript code to add these properties. The prompt specifies `myVariable` as `1` (a number) and `myVariable2` as `\"this is exciting\"` (a string). The code would be `item.myVariable = 1;\\nitem.myVariable2 = \"this is exciting\";\\nreturn item;`. This matches the `functionCode` in the JSON's parameters. This node will now output items with these two new properties attached.\n\nFinally, the prompt states: \"Finally, use a Set node to create a new field named `data` containing the value of `myVariable2` from the Function node, keeping only this new `data` field.\"\nThis sounds like a job for a \"Set\" node, as it's excellent for manipulating the structure of the data and selecting specific fields.\n\nI'd take the main output from my \"FunctionItem\" node and connect it to the main input of a **Set** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`, as indicated by the JSON.\n* Why this node? The Set node is perfect for adding new fields, modifying existing ones, or, crucially in this case, restructuring the data to keep only specific fields.\n* For the configuration, I need to achieve two things:\n 1. Create a new field named `data`.\n 2. Set its value to `myVariable2` from the previous \"FunctionItem\" node.\n 3. Keep *only* this new `data` field.\n To do this, I'd add a new value within the `values` parameter. Since `myVariable2` is a string, I'd choose the \"String\" type. I'd set its `name` to `data`.\n Now, for the `value`, I need to reference the `myVariable2` from the \"FunctionItem\" node. I'd use an expression for this: `={{$node[\"FunctionItem\"].data[\"myVariable2\"]}}`. This expression specifically tells n8n to look at the data output by the node named \"FunctionItem\" and extract the value of the `myVariable2` property. This perfectly aligns with the JSON's `values` parameter.\n Lastly, to fulfill the \"keeping only this new `data` field\" requirement, there's a very convenient option in the Set node called `keepOnlySet`. By enabling this (setting it to `true`), the Set node will discard all other incoming data fields and only output the fields that have been explicitly defined or modified within this Set node.

I know I need a node that initiates the workflow when someone clicks a button or tests it manually.\n\n* **Node 1: Manual Trigger**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n * **TypeVersion:** `1`\n * **Reasoning:** This is the most straightforward way to start a workflow interactively. It's designed exactly for this purpose. When you're testing or debugging, this node provides a simple \"click to run\" mechanism. I'd drag this onto the canvas first, as it's the entry point.\n * **Configuration:** Looking at the JSON, its `parameters` are empty, which is typical for a basic manual trigger \u2013 it doesn't need any specific setup to just trigger. I'd give it a descriptive name like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" to make its purpose clear on the canvas.\n\nNext, the prompt says: \"It should then connect to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields1' which sets a field named `message` to the string 'hello there'\".\n\n* **Node 2: Set (Edit Fields1)**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n * **TypeVersion:** `3.4`\n * **Reasoning:** A 'Set' node is perfect for this. Its primary function is to add new fields to the incoming data item, modify existing ones, or remove fields. In this case, we need to *add* a new field (`message`) with a specific static value (`hello there`).\n * **Connection:** This 'Set' node needs to receive the data item that the manual trigger creates. So, I'd draw a connection from the output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node to the input of this new 'Set' node. This ensures that when the workflow runs, an item flows from the trigger directly into this node, ready for modification.\n * **Configuration:** I'd name this node \"Edit Fields1\" as requested. Then, within its parameters, I'd navigate to the \"Assignments\" section. I need to add a new assignment. I'd set the `name` of the field to `message`. For the `value`, I'd type in `hello there`. It's a simple string, so I'd ensure the `type` is set to `string`. This step is crucial for getting our initial data set up correctly for the subsequent nodes.\n\nFinally, the prompt states: \"followed by another 'Set' node named 'Repro1' that sets a field named `test` to the value of the `message` field from the previous node using an expression.\"\n\n* **Node 3: Set (Repro1)**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n * **TypeVersion:** `3.4`\n * **Reasoning:** Again, a 'Set' node is the right tool for the job. We're taking an existing field (`message`) and using its value to populate a *new* field (`test`). This is a common data transformation task where the 'Set' node excels.\n * **Connection:** This node needs to operate on the data *after* the `message` field has been added by \"Edit Fields1.\" So, I'd connect the output of \"Edit Fields1\" to the input of this new 'Set' node. This creates a clear, sequential flow where data is enriched step by step.\n * **Configuration:** I'd name this node \"Repro1\" as specified. Similar to the previous 'Set' node, I'd go to the \"Assignments\" section to add a new field. The `name` of this field will be `test`. Now, for the `value`, this is where the \"using an expression\" part comes in. I need to reference the `message` field from the data item that arrived at this node. In n8n, this is typically done using an expression that accesses the current item's JSON, which is available via the `$json` variable. So, the expression `={{ $json.message }}` is exactly what's needed. This tells n8n: \"Take the value of the `message` field from the current data item and assign it to the `test` field.\" I'd make sure the `type` is set to `string` for clarity, as we expect a string result from `message`.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow as described. The connections ensure a smooth flow of data from the initial trigger, through the first data manipulation, and then to the second, where a new field is derived from a previously set one." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Create a company in Salesmate\" that starts with a manual trigger. The workflow should then use the Salesmate node to create a new company record.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Create a company in Salesmate\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"name\": \"\", \"owner\": \"\", \"resource\": \"company\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Salesmate\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.salesmate\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Salesmate\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow built. The goal here is pretty clear: we need to create a new company record in Salesmate, and we want to kick this off manually.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a name, something descriptive so we know what it does at a glance. The user prompt explicitly states \"Create a company in Salesmate,\" so that's what I'll set as the workflow name. Simple and effective. The ID \"128\" is just an internal identifier, no need to think too much about that, it's assigned automatically.\n\nNow, onto the actual building blocks, the nodes. The prompt says \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This is straightforward. If we want to execute the workflow whenever *we* decide, a manual trigger is the perfect choice.\n\nSo, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. Its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is really simple; it doesn't require any specific configuration parameters other than just being present. It just sits there, waiting for someone to click the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n interface. It's a great way to test things out or run ad-hoc tasks. I'll name it \"On clicking 'execute'\" to make its purpose clear within the workflow canvas.\n\nNext, the prompt states, \"The workflow should then use the Salesmate node to create a new company record.\" This tells me exactly what the next step is. After our manual trigger fires, we need to interact with Salesmate.\n\nSo, I'll drag and drop a `Salesmate` node onto the canvas. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.salesmate`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is designed specifically for interacting with the Salesmate API, making it ideal for our purpose.\n\nNow, how do we connect these two? The flow is sequential: manual trigger first, then Salesmate. So, I'll draw a connection from the `manualTrigger` node's output to the `Salesmate` node's input. This means that once the manual trigger runs, it will pass control (and potentially some data, though for a manual trigger, it's usually just an empty item) to the Salesmate node, telling it to execute. The connection type will be `main`, indicating the primary flow of execution and data.\n\nWith the `Salesmate` node in place, I need to configure it to do what we want: create a company.\n* **Resource:** Salesmate has different resources like companies, contacts, deals, etc. The prompt clearly states \"create a new company record,\" so I'll set the `resource` parameter to `company`. This tells the Salesmate node which type of entity we're dealing with.\n* **Operation:** While not explicitly listed as a parameter in the JSON's `parameters` block, for a `Salesmate` node configured with `resource: \"company\"` in the context of \"creating a new company record,\" the implicit or default `operation` is typically \"create.\" Many n8n nodes intelligently handle this if the resource implies a primary action.\n* **Parameters for the Company:** To create a company, Salesmate will need certain information. The JSON shows placeholders for `name` and `owner`, and an `additionalFields` object. This tells me that the workflow is set up to provide the company's `name` and `owner` (which might be an ID of a Salesmate user) directly, and `additionalFields` would be used for any other custom fields or standard fields not explicitly called out, like industry, website, address, etc. For this initial setup, they are empty strings, meaning we'd fill these in when we actually use the workflow. This is standard practice for a template.\n* **Credentials:** Finally, the `Salesmate` node needs to authenticate with our Salesmate account. The `credentials` block shows `salesmateApi: \"\"`. This is where the API key or other authentication details for Salesmate would be configured. It's crucial for the node to access our Salesmate account. Of course, I wouldn't put any actual sensitive information here, just note that it's required for the node to function.\n\nSo, in summary, we have a trigger to start the process, and then a Salesmate node configured to create a company, ready to receive the company's details and authenticate with the Salesmate API. The connections ensure the flow from trigger to action. It looks like a solid basic structure for the task." } { "prompt": "Design an n8n workflow titled 'GetOnboardingFile Leveraging External Tools with n8n'. It should initiate with a webhook at `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/LeveragingExternalToolsWithN8n`, subsequently retrieve content from the Google Docs URL `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1bPDuObCZ--ACjGkxIbz4qayfTSZzxq8Ki0DY4dlqR4g\/view`, and then send the document's content back as the webhook response.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFile Leveraging External Tools with n8n\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/LeveragingExternalToolsWithN8n\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1bPDuObCZ--ACjGkxIbz4qayfTSZzxq8Ki0DY4dlqR4g\/view\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so I need to design an n8n workflow. The prompt clearly states it's about getting a file, specifically from Google Docs, and then sending that content back via a webhook.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt says \"It should initiate with a webhook.\" This is straightforward. I'll definitely need a Webhook node as my very first step.\n\nSo, I'd drag out a **Webhook** node. Looking at the JSON, it's `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 2`. This is the standard webhook node.\nNow, how should I configure this webhook? The prompt gives me the exact path: `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/LeveragingExternalToolsWithN8n`. So, I'll set the 'Path' parameter of this Webhook node to that exact string. This ensures that when an external system hits this specific URL, our workflow will kick off.\nAnother crucial setting for a webhook that needs to send a response back later in the workflow is its 'Response Mode'. The prompt says \"send the document's content back as the webhook response,\" which means this webhook won't respond immediately but will wait for a later node to do so. So, I'll set the 'Response Mode' parameter to 'Respond to Webhook Node'. This allows a downstream node to handle the actual HTTP response.\n\nAlright, the workflow is triggered. What's next? The prompt says \"subsequently retrieve content from the Google Docs URL.\" This immediately tells me I need something that can interact with Google Docs. n8n has a dedicated node for that, which is great.\n\nSo, I'd connect the output of my 'Webhook' node to a new node, which would be a **Google Docs** node. From the JSON, I see its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion: 2`. This is perfect for what I need.\nFor configuring this Google Docs node, the core task is to \"retrieve content.\" That means the 'Operation' parameter needs to be set to 'Get'. I'm not creating, updating, or deleting; I'm fetching.\nThen, I need to tell it *which* document to get. The prompt provides a specific Google Docs URL: `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1bPDuObCZ--ACjGkxIbz4qayfTSZzxq8Ki0DY4dlqR4g\/view`. I'll configure the 'Document URL' parameter with that URL.\nOf course, to access Google Docs, this node will require authentication. It would need credentials configured, like a Google OAuth2 API account, to be able to read from the specified document. I'd ensure that a suitable credential is set up and linked to this node.\n\nNow I have the content from Google Docs. The final step, according to the prompt, is \"then send the document's content back as the webhook response.\" This means I need a node that can take the data from the Google Docs node and use it to complete the response for the *initial* webhook trigger.\n\nFor this, I'd connect the output of my 'Google Docs' node to a **Respond to Webhook** node. In the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node is specifically designed to send a response back to a webhook that was configured with the 'Respond to Webhook Node' mode, which is exactly what I did with my first node.\nHow do I configure it to send the document content? The Google Docs node, when set to 'Get' operation, typically outputs the document's content in a field, often named 'content' or something similar, within the JSON data that passes to the next node.\nSo, I'd set the 'Respond With' parameter to 'Text', as I'm likely sending back the raw text of the document.\nThen, for the 'Response Body' parameter, I need to reference the content from the previous node. I would use an expression to access that data. Based on how n8n usually structures output, `={{ $json.content }}` is a common way to access the 'content' field from the previous item's data. This expression tells the 'Respond to Webhook' node to take the value from the 'content' key of the incoming JSON data and use it as the body of the HTTP response.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps up the flow. The webhook triggers, fetches the document, and then sends its content back. Simple and efficient." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers weekly at 5 AM, reads data from Google Sheet \"qwertz\" using \"google_sheets_oauth\" credentials, and then inserts the \"title\" and \"price\" columns into the \"books\" MySQL table with `IGNORE` and `LOW_PRIORITY` options, using \"MySQL account\" credentials.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 5, \"mode\": \"everyWeek\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Cron\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cron\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [100, 160]}, {\"parameters\": {\"table\": \"books\", \"columns\": \"title, price\", \"options\": {\"ignore\": true, \"priority\": \"LOW_PRIORITY\"}}, \"name\": \"MySQL - insert\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.mySql\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 160]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"sheetId\": \"qwertz\", \"authentication\": \"oAuth2\"}, \"name\": \"Google Sheets - read\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [300, 160]}], \"connections\": {\"Cron\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Sheets - read\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Sheets - read\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"MySQL - insert\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start building this workflow from the ground up, thinking through each piece as we go.\n\nFirst off, the request specifies that the workflow needs to \"trigger weekly at 5 AM.\" That immediately tells me I need a starting point, a trigger node that handles scheduling. Looking at the available nodes in n8n, the \"Cron\" node is the perfect fit for this kind of time-based scheduling.\n\nSo, I'd drag out a **Cron** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.cron`, and the provided JSON uses `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed to initiate workflows at predefined intervals. To meet the \"weekly at 5 AM\" requirement, I'd go into its parameters. I'd set the `triggerTimes` option. Within that, I'd specify the `mode` as \"everyWeek\" to ensure it runs once a week, and then I'd set the `hour` to 5 for 5 AM. This configuration makes sure our workflow kicks off exactly when it's supposed to, without any manual intervention.\n\nNext, once the workflow is triggered, the prompt says it needs to \"read data from Google Sheet \"qwertz\" using \"google_sheets_oauth\" credentials.\" This is our data source. So, the logical next step is to connect a node that can interact with Google Sheets. The **Google Sheets** node is the obvious choice here.\n\nI'd take the output connection from the \"Cron\" node and link it to this new **Google Sheets - read** node. This means that every time the Cron node triggers, it will pass execution flow to the Google Sheets node. The type for this node is `n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets`, and it's also `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, for configuring this Google Sheets node:\nFirst, it needs to know which sheet to read from. The prompt specifies \"qwertz,\" so I would enter \"qwertz\" into the `sheetId` parameter.\nSecond, for authentication, it explicitly states \"using \"google_sheets_oauth\" credentials.\" So, I'd make sure the `authentication` method is set to \"oAuth2.\" Then, I'd link it to the appropriate Google Sheets OAuth2 API credentials. In a real-world scenario, I'd select the pre-configured credential, which in this case is abstractly represented as `googleSheetsOAuth2Api` with a certain ID and name. This ensures the workflow has the necessary permissions to access the specified Google Sheet. We're specifically reading data, so the default \"Read\" operation is fine here; no need to change that.\n\nFinally, after reading the data from the Google Sheet, the prompt specifies that we need to \"insert the \"title\" and \"price\" columns into the \"books\" MySQL table with `IGNORE` and `LOW_PRIORITY` options, using \"MySQL account\" credentials.\" This tells me the final action will be writing data to a MySQL database.\n\nSo, I'd connect the output of the \"Google Sheets - read\" node to a **MySQL** node. This ensures that the data read from Google Sheets is passed directly as input to the MySQL node for processing. The type for this node is `n8n-nodes-base.mySql`, also at `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nLet's configure this **MySQL - insert** node.\nThe operation needs to be \"insert,\" as we're adding new data.\nThe prompt clearly states the target is the \"books\" MySQL table, so I'd set the `table` parameter to \"books.\"\nIt also specifies which columns to insert: \"title\" and \"price.\" So, I'd enter \"title, price\" into the `columns` parameter. It's crucial that these column names match what's coming out of the Google Sheets node, ideally named \"title\" and \"price\" in the sheet itself. n8n will then map the incoming data fields to these specified columns.\nThen, for the special options: \"with `IGNORE` and `LOW_PRIORITY`.\" I'd navigate to the `options` section within the MySQL node's parameters. Here, I'd enable the `ignore` option, which translates to the `INSERT IGNORE` SQL syntax, preventing errors if a row with a duplicate primary key already exists. And for `priority`, I'd select \"LOW_PRIORITY,\" which tells MySQL to delay the insert operation until no other clients are reading from the table, useful for less critical background tasks.\nLastly, for credentials, it says \"using \"MySQL account\" credentials.\" Similar to the Google Sheets credentials, I'd select the appropriate pre-configured MySQL credential, generically referred to as `mySql` with its ID and name. This allows the workflow to authenticate with the database.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. The Cron node starts it, the Google Sheets node fetches the necessary data, and the MySQL node then takes that data and inserts it into the specified table with the required options. The data flows sequentially from one node to the next." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'RocketChat:Chat:postMessage' that starts and connects to a RocketChat node.

The goal here is to create an inactive workflow that posts a message to RocketChat with specific content and an attachment, initiated by a simple start node.\n\nFirst off, every workflow in n8n needs a starting point. Since the prompt doesn't mention any external triggers like webhooks, schedules, or events, the most straightforward way to begin is with a `Start` node. It's essentially the entry point that kicks off the workflow when it's manually executed or otherwise triggered if it were active. So, I'd drop in a `Start` node. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.start` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This is a standard, base node, so version `1` is perfectly fine and unlikely to change core behavior for such a fundamental node. I'll place it somewhere easy to see, say, at coordinates [250, 300].\n\nNext, the core of this workflow is interacting with RocketChat to post a message. This immediately tells me I'll need a `RocketChat` node. This specific node type is designed to communicate with a RocketChat instance, handling various operations like sending messages. I'll add that node, and its type is `n8n-nodes-base.rocketchat` with `typeVersion: 1`. Again, version 1 is standard for this node, and for a simple `postMessage` operation, it's very stable. I'll position it to the right of the Start node, at [500, 300], so there's a clear flow.\n\nNow, let's configure this `RocketChat` node according to the prompt's requirements.\n\nThe prompt specifies posting to the 'general' channel. So, within the `RocketChat` node's parameters, I'd set the `channel` field to `'general'`.\n\nNext, the message text itself: `=Message {{(new Date).toISOString()}}`. This looks like a mix of static text and an n8n expression. So, in the `text` parameter of the RocketChat node, I'll input exactly that string. The `{{...}}` syntax indicates an expression that will be evaluated at runtime, inserting the current date and time in ISO format.\n\nThe prompt also requests an emoji: ':smile:'. This usually falls under additional options for a message. So, I'd look for an `options` section within the node's parameters. Inside `options`, there's an `emoji` field, which I'll set to `':smile:'`.\n\nThen, there's a requirement for a red attachment titled 'Attachment title'. This suggests an `attachments` array within the `options` or directly at the top level of the node's parameters, as per the JSON. It's an array because you could potentially have multiple attachments. For the first (and only) attachment in this case, I'll add an object to this array. It needs a `color`, which is specified as red with the hex code '#ff6d5a'. So, `color: '#ff6d5a'`. And it also needs a `title`, which the prompt provides as 'Attachment title'. So, `title: 'Attachment title'`.\n\nCrucially, to connect to RocketChat, the node needs credentials. The prompt mentions 'Rocket API creds' with ID 184. This means I need to link this RocketChat node to a pre-configured credential. In the node's `credentials` section, I would select the `rocketchatApi` credential, referencing it by its ID (`184`) and its display name (`'Rocket API creds'`). This credential would hold the sensitive authentication details like an API key or user token and URL, allowing the node to securely communicate with the RocketChat server without those details being exposed in the workflow itself.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The `Start` node's output should flow directly into the `RocketChat` node's input. This is a standard `main` connection. So, from the `Start` node's `main` output, I'd draw a connection line to the `RocketChat` node's `main` input. This ensures that when the workflow starts, it immediately proceeds to execute the RocketChat message posting operation.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The workflow is set to inactive as requested, so it won't run until explicitly activated." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named '\ud83d\udea8[HENRY SANTOS] - Aviso de Workflow com Erro' that triggers on any workflow error.

The goal is pretty clear: we need to catch any workflow errors and send a Discord notification. The workflow itself needs a specific name and should start inactive.\n\nFirst things first, thinking about the core functionality: we need something to *listen* for errors. n8n has a dedicated trigger for this, which is perfect. So, the very first node we'll need to add to our canvas is going to be an **Error Trigger** node.\n\nI'd place it right at the beginning, perhaps at coordinates `[0, 0]`, as it's the starting point of our workflow. Looking at the JSON, indeed, the first node is an \"Error Trigger\". Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.errorTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is ideal because its sole purpose is to activate whenever *any* other workflow in the n8n instance encounters an error. It automatically captures details about the problematic workflow, which is exactly what we'll need for our notification. For an Error Trigger, there are usually no specific parameters to configure; it just listens, so its `parameters` object would be empty, which it is in the JSON.\n\nOnce the Error Trigger catches an error, what do we need to do? Send a Discord notification. So, the next logical step is to add a node that can communicate with Discord. An **Discord** node is precisely what we need for this.\n\nThis Discord node will connect directly from the \"Error Trigger\" node. The Error Trigger's output will become the input for the Discord node. Looking at the `connections` section of the workflow JSON, it confirms this: `{\"Error Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Discord\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the `main` output of the \"Error Trigger\" connects to the `main` input of the \"Discord\" node.\n\nNow, let's configure this Discord node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.discord` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. The most crucial part of configuring a Discord node is telling it *where* to send the message. This is done via the `webhookUri` parameter. A Discord Webhook URI would be configured here, pointing to the specific Discord channel where the notifications should appear. This is a sensitive piece of information, so it would be provided by the user when setting up the node in their n8n instance.\n\nNext, we need to craft the message content. This goes into the `text` parameter. The prompt specifies that the notification should detail the problematic workflow's name and ID. The beauty of the Error Trigger node is that it provides this information in its output data. So, within the `text` field, we'll use n8n expressions to dynamically pull that data.\n\nThe message starts with some static text: `=\\ud83d\\udea8 **Workflow com erro no Henry Santos - Hetzner**`. This clearly identifies the context of the error.\nThen, it gets dynamic: `O Workflow **{{ $json[\\\"workflow\\\"][\\\"name\\\"] }}**, do **ID {{ $json[\\\"workflow\\\"][\\\"id\\\"] }}**, acabou de apresentar um erro.` Here, we're accessing the data from the previous node (the Error Trigger). The `$json` refers to the data passed into the Discord node. The Error Trigger, when it fires, puts the details of the failed workflow under a `workflow` property, which includes `name` and `id`. So, `{{ $json[\"workflow\"][\"name\"] }}` will insert the name of the workflow that failed, and `{{ $json[\"workflow\"][\"id\"] }}` will insert its unique ID. This is extremely helpful for quickly identifying the source of the problem.\nFinally, there's a clear call to action: `Assim que puder, d\\u00ea uma conferida e ajuste o erro apresentado.`.\n\nThe `options` parameter for the Discord node seems to be empty (`{}`), which means we're not setting any special message options like a custom username or avatar for the bot sending the message. This keeps the configuration straightforward.\n\nI'd place the Discord node slightly to the right of the Error Trigger, perhaps at `[220, 0]`, giving a clear visual flow from left to right.\n\nAnd, of course, the prompt explicitly states the workflow should be *inactive* initially. So, at the very top level of the workflow JSON, the `active` property is set to `false`. This ensures it won't trigger until someone explicitly activates it, which is good practice for a new error notification system, allowing for proper testing. The workflow is also given its specific name: `\\ud83d\\udea8[HENRY SANTOS] - Aviso de Workflow com Erro`.\n\nThat pretty much covers the entire design and configuration based on the provided JSON. It's a simple, yet effective, two-node setup for error alerting." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that starts with a manual trigger, then creates a Sentry release with version '0.0.1', and subsequently retrieves all Sentry releases.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Create a release and get all releases\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [210, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"\", \"version\": \"0.0.1\", \"projects\": [\"\"], \"resource\": \"release\", \"operation\": \"create\", \"additionalFields\": {}, \"organizationSlug\": \"\"}, \"name\": \"Sentry.io\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.sentryIo\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [410, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"release\", \"operation\": \"getAll\", \"returnAll\": true, \"additionalFields\": {}, \"organizationSlug\": \"\"}, \"name\": \"Sentry.io1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.sentryIo\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [610, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Sentry.io\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Sentry.io1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Sentry.io\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start thinking about how to build this workflow. The prompt is pretty clear: \"starts with a manual trigger, then creates a Sentry release with version '0.0.1', and subsequently retrieves all Sentry releases.\"\n\nThe first thing that comes to mind is how to kick off this process. Since it explicitly says \"starts with a manual trigger,\" that's the obvious choice for our initial node.\n\nSo, I'd bring in a **Manual Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and in this case, its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it allows someone to manually initiate the workflow with a click, which aligns perfectly with the requirement. There aren't really any specific parameters to configure for this type of node; it simply provides a starting point when executed.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step is to create a Sentry release. This clearly points to a Sentry integration node. I'd look for the Sentry.io node.\n\nSo, connecting from our \"On clicking 'execute'\" Manual Trigger node, I'd add a **Sentry.io** node. This node has the `type` `n8n-nodes-base.sentryIo` and also `typeVersion` `1`. This node is designed specifically for interacting with the Sentry API, which is exactly what we need to manage releases.\n\nNow, let's think about configuring this Sentry.io node. The prompt specifies \"creates a Sentry release with version '0.0.1'\".\n* For the `resource` parameter, I'd select `release` because we're dealing with Sentry releases.\n* Then, for the `operation` parameter, it's pretty straightforward: we want to `create` a new release.\n* The prompt gives us a specific version: `'0.0.1'`. So, I'd input that into the `version` parameter.\n* Regarding other parameters like `organizationSlug` and `projects`, these would need to be provided to correctly identify where the release should be created within Sentry. These are essential configuration details, usually provided as a slug or ID.\n* There's also a `url` parameter. If we're interacting with a self-hosted Sentry instance, we'd put that specific URL here; otherwise, it might default to the cloud Sentry API.\n* And, of course, this node would require credentials to authenticate with Sentry, which would be linked up in the `credentials` section.\n\nAfter creating the release, the prompt states \"subsequently retrieves all Sentry releases.\" This means we need *another* Sentry.io node, but this time for a different operation.\n\nSo, from our first Sentry.io node (the one that creates the release), I'd connect its output to the input of a *new* **Sentry.io** node. This would again be `n8n-nodes-base.sentryIo` with `typeVersion` `1`. The reason for connecting it this way is to ensure that the \"get all releases\" operation only runs *after* the \"create release\" operation has successfully completed. This maintains the sequential flow of operations described in the prompt.\n\nLet's configure this second Sentry.io node:\n* Again, the `resource` will be `release`, as we're still working with Sentry releases.\n* However, for the `operation` parameter this time, we need to `getAll` because the goal is to retrieve *all* Sentry releases.\n* When fetching all items, it's generally a good practice to enable the `returnAll` parameter. This ensures that if there are many releases, the node will paginate through the results and fetch every single one, rather than just a default limited set.\n* Similar to the previous Sentry node, the `organizationSlug` would be necessary here to specify which Sentry organization to query for releases. This node would also reuse the same Sentry credentials as the previous one, as we're interacting with the same Sentry instance.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow steps as described. We start with the manual trigger, create the specified Sentry release, and then immediately fetch all releases to confirm or for further processing down the line. The connections ensure the operations happen in the correct order." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that listens for a webhook at `onboarding\/leadgeneration\/LGVocabulary`.

This implies a clear sequence: trigger -> action -> response.\n\nFirst things first, we need a way to receive the initial request. The user prompt explicitly states \"listens for a webhook\". So, my starting point, the very first node in this workflow, has to be a Webhook node.\n\nI'd add a **Webhook** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and the JSON shows `typeVersion: 2`. This node is perfect because it's designed to act as an entry point for external systems to trigger the workflow. For its configuration, the prompt specifies the path: `onboarding\/leadgeneration\/LGVocabulary`. So, I'd set that as the 'Path' parameter. Crucially, the workflow needs to send a response *back* to this webhook. This means I can't just let the webhook node respond immediately. I need to tell it that a later node will handle the response. Looking at the JSON, `responseMode` is set to `responseNode`, which is exactly what we want. This ensures the workflow stays open until a `Respond to Webhook` node is encountered later.\n\nOnce the webhook is received, the next step, according to the prompt, is to \"fetch the text content from the Google Document\". This immediately tells me I need an integration with Google Docs.\n\nSo, I'd connect from the Webhook node's 'main' output to a new node, which would be a **Google Docs** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and the JSON uses `typeVersion: 2`. This node is ideal because it directly interfaces with Google Docs, allowing us to perform operations like reading or writing documents. For the operation, we're fetching content, so the 'Operation' parameter should be set to `get`. The node also needs to know *which* document to get content from. The prompt provides a specific Google Doc URL, so that URL would be configured in the `documentURL` parameter. Of course, to access a private Google Doc, this node would require credentials to be set up, likely a Google OAuth2 API credential, which would allow n8n to authenticate with Google on behalf of the user who owns or has access to the document.\n\nNow that we've fetched the content from the Google Doc, the final piece of the puzzle is to \"send that content back as the webhook's response.\" Since the initial Webhook node was configured with `responseMode: responseNode`, we need a specific node to handle sending that final response.\n\nI'd connect the 'main' output of the Google Docs node to a **Respond to Webhook** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, and the JSON specifies `typeVersion: 1.1`. This node is exactly what's needed for sending custom responses back to an incoming webhook, especially when the initial webhook trigger was set to wait for a response. For its configuration, the prompt implies we just want the raw text content, so I'd set the 'Respond With' parameter to `text`. The crucial part is providing the actual content. The Google Docs node, when it successfully retrieves a document, typically outputs the document's content in a field like `content` within its JSON output. So, to dynamically pass that content, I'd use an expression in the 'Response Body' field, specifically `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression tells the node to take the `content` field from the data passed to it (which would be the output from the Google Docs node) and use it as the response body.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers all the requirements. The workflow starts with the webhook, fetches the document, and then responds with the document's content." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that uses a webhook as a trigger, converts the HTML string `<h1>Hello CustomJS!<\/h1><h2>CustomJS provides the missing toolset for your no-code projects<\/h2>` into a PDF using the 'HTML to PDF' node, and then sends the resulting PDF back as a binary response via a 'Respond to Webhook' node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"060dbacf-0feb-43d4-b4ac-44011a7dd1a4\", \"options\": {}, \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\"}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [80, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"respondWith\": \"binary\"}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [580, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"htmlInput\": \"<h1>Hello CustomJS!<\/h1>\\n<h2>CustomJS provides the missing toolset for your no-code projects<\/h2>\"}, \"name\": \"HTML to PDF\", \"type\": \"@custom-js\/n8n-nodes-pdf-toolkit.html2Pdf\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [340, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"HTML to PDF\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"HTML to PDF\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down this n8n workflow. My goal here is to design a system that takes an HTML string, turns it into a PDF, and then sends that PDF right back to whoever triggered the workflow.\n\nFirst things first, how does this workflow get kicked off? The prompt clearly states it uses a webhook as a trigger. So, the very first node I'll need is a `Webhook` node. Looking at the provided JSON, I see one:\n\n* **Node ID:** `37bd6cc9-3cc4-442e-94c1-42972c0fce0d`\n* **Node Name:** `Webhook`\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **Type Version:** `2`\n\nThis is the perfect starting point. A webhook node sits and listens for incoming HTTP requests. When a request comes in, it triggers the rest of the workflow. For its configuration, I can see it has a `path` parameter, which essentially defines the unique URL for this specific webhook. It's configured with `responseMode: \"responseNode\"`. This is crucial because it means the webhook won't send an immediate response; it will wait for a later node in the workflow (like the `Respond to Webhook` node we'll get to) to handle the response. This is exactly what we want for sending back a processed PDF.\n\nOkay, so the webhook receives the request. What's next? The core task here is to convert an HTML string into a PDF. I'll need a node that can handle that conversion. Based on the JSON, there's a specific node for this:\n\n* **Node ID:** `3f5ba2a7-148d-4921-b2ca-9dee17a2b278`\n* **Node Name:** `HTML to PDF`\n* **Node Type:** `@custom-js\/n8n-nodes-pdf-toolkit.html2Pdf`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n\nThis node type, `@custom-js\/n8n-nodes-pdf-toolkit.html2Pdf`, is specifically designed for converting HTML to PDF, which fits our requirement perfectly. It connects directly from the `Webhook` node's `main` output. This means that as soon as the webhook is triggered, the execution flow moves to this \"HTML to PDF\" node.\n\nNow, how do I tell this node *what* HTML to convert? The prompt gives us the exact HTML string: `<h1>Hello CustomJS!<\/h1><h2>CustomJS provides the missing toolset for your no-code projects<\/h2>`. Looking at the node's parameters, there's an `htmlInput` field. This is where I'd paste that exact string. So, this node is hardcoded with the specific HTML content it needs to convert. If the HTML were dynamic, coming from the webhook itself for example, I might use an expression here to pull it from the incoming data, but for this specific request, a fixed string is required. It also has `credentials` configured, which points to a \"CustomJS account\". This implies that the conversion service likely requires some form of authentication or API key, which would be handled within that credential setup, ensuring the node can access the necessary external service.\n\nOnce the `HTML to PDF` node does its job, it will output the converted PDF, likely as a binary file. The final step, according to the prompt, is to \"send the resulting PDF back as a binary response via a 'Respond to Webhook' node.\" This means I need a node that can take that binary data and send it back through the original webhook connection.\n\nThis leads us to the last node:\n\n* **Node ID:** `3c05c0e4-7121-46d0-b35c-fc39cdd35ae7`\n* **Node Name:** `Respond to Webhook`\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`\n* **Type Version:** `1.1`\n\nThis `Respond to Webhook` node is exactly what's needed. It's designed to send a response back to the initial webhook trigger, which we set up to wait for a response earlier. It connects from the `HTML to PDF` node's `main` output, so the PDF data generated by the conversion node will be passed directly into this response node.\n\nThe key configuration for this `Respond to Webhook` node is the `respondWith` parameter, which is set to `\"binary\"`. This is crucial because we're not sending back JSON or plain text; we're sending the actual PDF file. So, by setting it to \"binary\", the node will take the binary output from the \"HTML to PDF\" node and send it as the HTTP response. This completes the loop: trigger via webhook, convert HTML to PDF, and send the PDF back as a binary response." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that uses a manual trigger connected to a Function node.

I need to design a workflow that gets today's date in a specific format and the day of the week, and then makes that information available. Looking at the prompt and the provided JSON, it seems like a straightforward two-node setup.\n\nFirst, I need a way to kick off this workflow. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger\". So, the very first node I'd place on the canvas would naturally be the Manual Trigger node.\n\nThis node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. Why this node? Well, it's pretty self-explanatory. It allows the user to initiate the workflow by simply clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n interface. It's perfect for ad-hoc runs or when you're testing something out manually. For its parameters, there's nothing specific to configure here; it just acts as a starting point, passing an empty item (or rather, no specific data, but it enables the flow of execution) to the next node.\n\nNext up, the prompt mentions getting today's date and the full name of the day of the week, and crucially, \"adding them to the output as `date_today` and `day_today` respectively\". This sounds like something that requires a bit of custom logic to manipulate or create data. While n8n has a \"Date & Time\" node, which is great for various date operations, getting the *full name* of the day of the week and then specifically assigning it to a new property like `day_today` within the output item usually points towards needing more flexibility. That's where a Function node shines.\n\nSo, I'd connect the output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (the Manual Trigger) node to the input of a Function node. The connection type would be `main` to `main`, meaning the primary output of the trigger goes into the primary input of the Function node.\n\nThis Function node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.function` and its `typeVersion` is also `1`. The reason I'd choose this node is its ability to execute arbitrary JavaScript code. This allows for precise control over data manipulation, which is exactly what's needed here to format the date and derive the day name exactly as requested.\n\nNow, let's look at the `functionCode` inside this Function node. This is where the core logic resides:\n\n```javascript\nvar date = new Date().toISOString();\nvar day = new Date().getDay();\nconst weekday = [\"Sunday\", \"Monday\", \"Tuesday\", \"Wednesday\", \"Thursday\", \"Friday\", \"Saturday\"];\n\nitems[0].json.date_today = date;\nitems[0].json.day_today = weekday[day];\n\nreturn items;\n```\n\nWalking through this code:\n* `var date = new Date().toISOString();`: This line is perfect. `new Date()` creates a Date object for the current moment. `.toISOString()` then converts it into the ISO 8601 format (like \"2023-10-27T10:00:00.000Z\"), which satisfies the \"ISO format\" requirement. This value will be assigned to `date_today`.\n* `var day = new Date().getDay();`: This also creates a new Date object (though it could reuse the previous one, it doesn't hurt here) and uses `.getDay()`. This method returns the day of the week as an integer, where 0 is Sunday, 1 is Monday, and so on, up to 6 for Saturday. This is exactly what's needed to look up the day's name.\n* `const weekday = [\"Sunday\", \"Monday\", \"Tuesday\", \"Wednesday\", \"Thursday\", \"Friday\", \"Saturday\"];`: This array is a clever and common way to map the numerical day index (0-6) to its corresponding full name. It's concise and readable.\n* `items[0].json.date_today = date;`: This is crucial for modifying the data that gets passed on. In n8n, `items` is an array of data items, and each item typically has a `json` object where the main data resides. Here, we're taking the first item (`items[0]`, since the Manual Trigger likely passes one initial item) and adding a new property named `date_today` to its `json` object, assigning it the ISO date we just generated.\n* `items[0].json.day_today = weekday[day];`: Similarly, this line adds another new property, `day_today`, to the same `json` object of the first item. It uses the `day` integer as an index into the `weekday` array to get the full name (e.g., if `day` is 5, it gets \"Friday\"). This directly meets the requirement for the full day name.\n* `return items;`: This statement is essential. It ensures that the modified `items` array, now containing the `date_today` and `day_today` properties, is passed as output from this Function node to any subsequent nodes in the workflow.\n\nSo, in essence, the Manual Trigger gets the process started, and the Function node then performs all the necessary data generation and manipulation to produce the desired output with the date and day of the week, formatted and named precisely as requested. This structure is very clean and efficient for this particular task." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then retrieves all entries from Contentful.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [150, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAll\", \"returnAll\": true, \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Contentful\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.contentful\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [350, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Contentful\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down how I'd put together this n8n workflow, step by step, imagining I'm building it from the ground up to meet the user's request: \"Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and then retrieves all entries from Contentful.\"\n\nThe very first thing I always consider when designing an n8n workflow is: how does it get started? The prompt explicitly states it needs to \"start with a manual trigger.\" This is a clear indicator of my initial node.\n\n1. **First Node: The Trigger**\n * **Node Type:** I'll go for the `Manual Trigger` node. Looking at the JSON, it confirms my choice: `{\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1}`. This node is perfect because it allows me to initiate the workflow directly from the n8n editor with a simple click. It\u2019s ideal for testing, debugging, or any scenario where I want to run the workflow on demand.\n * **Configuration:** For a `Manual Trigger`, the `parameters` are usually empty `{}`, as seen in the JSON. It doesn't typically require any input settings to perform its function of just starting the workflow. It simply serves as the kick-off point. The `typeVersion: 1` indicates I'm using a specific version of this node, which is what the JSON specifies. If I were building this without a pre-defined JSON, I'd generally pick the latest stable version available for reliability, but here, I'm sticking to the script.\n\nNow that I have the workflow's starting point, I need to consider the next action: \"retrieves all entries from Contentful.\" This clearly tells me I need an integration node for Contentful.\n\n2. **Second Node: Contentful Data Retrieval**\n * **Node Type:** To interact with Contentful, I'll need a dedicated Contentful node. Checking the JSON, the next node is indeed `{\"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.contentful\", \"typeVersion\": 1}`. This is exactly what's required for connecting to and interacting with Contentful.\n * **Connection:** This Contentful operation needs to happen *after* the workflow has been manually triggered. So, I'll connect the `Manual Trigger` node's `main` output to the `Contentful` node's `main` input. The `connections` section in the JSON confirms this, showing a connection from `\"On clicking 'execute'\"` (which is my `Manual Trigger`) to `\"Contentful\"`. This ensures that once the trigger fires, the flow passes directly to the Contentful node to perform its operation.\n * **Configuration - Operation:** The user wants to \"retrieve all entries.\" Within the Contentful node's `parameters`, I'd look for an operation that fetches data. The JSON specifies `{\"operation\": \"getAll\"}`. This `getAll` operation is precisely what I need; it's designed to retrieve multiple items from Contentful. There might be other operations like `get` (for a single item), `create`, `update`, etc., but `getAll` fits the requirement perfectly.\n * **Configuration - Return All:** Just selecting `getAll` isn't always enough to get *all* entries, especially if there are more than Contentful's default page size. Many APIs paginate results. To ensure I fetch *everything*, I'd need a way to tell the node to handle pagination automatically. The JSON provides `{\"returnAll\": true}`. This setting is crucial. It instructs the Contentful node to automatically make multiple requests, iterating through all pages of results until every single entry has been retrieved. Without this, I might only get the first batch of entries, which wouldn't fulfill the \"all entries\" requirement.\n * **Configuration - Additional Fields:** The `additionalFields` parameter is an empty object `{}`, meaning no specific filters (like by content type, status, or specific field values), sorting orders, or other advanced query parameters are being applied. For a straightforward request to \"get all entries,\" this configuration is ideal, as it means no extra constraints are being imposed on the data retrieval. If the requirement were more complex, I'd populate this section accordingly.\n * **Configuration - Credentials:** Finally, to actually connect to Contentful, the node needs authentication. The JSON shows `{\"credentials\": {\"contentfulApi\": \"contentful\"}}`. This means that an n8n credential resource, likely named \"contentful\" (or whatever name the user has given it in their n8n instance), would be selected here. This credential object holds the sensitive API keys and other necessary information to securely authenticate with the Contentful service. I wouldn't specify the actual API key value here, just that a pre-configured credential is required and referenced.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow is now designed to start manually and then pull down all available entries from Contentful, passing them as output items from the Contentful node for any subsequent processing that might be needed (though none is specified beyond this point)." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that triggers daily at 9 AM, retrieves the current weather for Berlin, and sends a Spontit push notification titled \"Today's Weather Update\" with the temperature.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Send daily weather updates via a push notification using Spontit\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 9}]}}, \"name\": \"Cron\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cron\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [810, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"cityName\": \"berlin\"}, \"name\": \"OpenWeatherMap\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1010, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"content\": \"=Hey!

The user wants a daily weather update notification, specifically for Berlin, delivered via Spontit, and it needs to trigger reliably every day at 9 AM. Looking at the requirements, I can see a clear sequence of operations.\n\nFirst things first, I need something to kick off this whole process at a specific time every day. For scheduled events like this, the `Cron` node is usually my go-to choice in n8n. It's built exactly for time-based triggers.\nSo, I'd start by dragging in a `Cron` node. I see it's of `type: n8n-nodes-base.cron` and `typeVersion: 1`. This version is standard and perfectly suitable for what I need here.\nNow, how to configure it for \"daily at 9 AM\"? I'd go into its parameters, and there's a `triggerTimes` option. Within that, I can specify the `hour`. I'd set that `hour` value to `9`. This ensures the workflow will run precisely at 9 AM every day. That's the trigger handled.\n\nNext, after the workflow is triggered, the prompt says \"retrieve the current weather for Berlin.\" This immediately makes me think of a weather API. OpenWeatherMap is a very common and reliable service for this. Does n8n have a dedicated node for OpenWeatherMap? Yes, it does! That's much easier than dealing with raw HTTP requests and JSON parsing.\nSo, I'd bring in an `OpenWeatherMap` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap` and `typeVersion: 1`. This dedicated node will simplify fetching the data.\nI'll connect this `OpenWeatherMap` node directly from the `main` output of the `Cron` node. The `Cron` node just needs to signal the start of the workflow; it doesn't pass specific data relevant to the weather query itself, just acts as a go-ahead.\nFor the configuration of the `OpenWeatherMap` node, the most crucial part is specifying the city. The prompt explicitly says \"for Berlin,\" so I'll set the `cityName` parameter to `\"berlin\"`. This ensures I get the weather for the correct location. It also requires `credentials` to authenticate with the OpenWeatherMap API. I'd ensure an OpenWeatherMap API key is configured in n8n's credentials section, which would then be referenced here. I just need to make sure the `openWeatherMapApi` credential is selected.\n\nFinally, once I have the weather data, I need to \"send a Spontit push notification titled 'Today's Weather Update' with the temperature.\" This clearly points to using a `Spontit` node.\nI'd add a `Spontit` node, which is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.spontit` and `typeVersion: 1`.\nThis `Spontit` node needs to be connected from the `OpenWeatherMap` node's `main` output. This connection is vital because the `Spontit` node will need the data that the `OpenWeatherMap` node fetched \u2013 specifically, the temperature. The data from `OpenWeatherMap` will flow into the `Spontit` node, making it accessible.\nNow, for the `Spontit` node's configuration. The prompt specifies two things: the notification title and the content (which should include the temperature).\nFor the `pushTitle`, it's \"Today's Weather Update.\" I can find this under `additionalFields` and set the `pushTitle` parameter to `\"Today's Weather Update\"`. That's straightforward.\nFor the `content` of the notification, I need to include the temperature. This means I'll have to dynamically insert the temperature value obtained from the `OpenWeatherMap` node into the message. I'll use an expression for this. I'd start with a friendly greeting, like \"Hey! The temperature outside is \". Then, I'll use an expression to pull the temperature. Typically, weather APIs return temperature data nested under a `main` object, often with a key like `temp`. So, I'd access it using something like `{{$node[\"OpenWeatherMap\"].json[\"main\"][\"temp\"]}}`. I'd also add \"\u00b0C\" for clarity, assuming the default unit for OpenWeatherMap is Celsius, or I'd ensure the `OpenWeatherMap` node is configured to provide Celsius. So, the full content expression would be `\"=Hey! The temperature outside is {{$node[\\\"OpenWeatherMap\\\"].json[\\\"main\\\"][\\\"temp\\\"]}}\u00b0C.\"`. The leading `=` signifies that it's an expression, not just static text.\nAnd just like the OpenWeatherMap node, the `Spontit` node also requires `credentials`. I'd make sure a Spontit API key is configured in n8n and referenced here, under `spontitApi`.\n\nAnd that should cover all the requirements. The workflow now triggers daily, fetches the relevant data, and sends it out in the specified format. Looks solid." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

Looking at the options, the most straightforward choice for a human-initiated start is the **Manual Trigger** node. This node, specifically of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`, is perfect because it just waits for someone to click the 'Execute Workflow' button in the n8n UI. Its primary purpose is to kick off a workflow when a user decides to, making it an ideal starting point for ad-hoc or test runs. For this node, the `parameters` are typically empty since its function is simply to start the execution, not to take any specific inputs or configurations itself. It just provides a starting pulse for the workflow.\n\nNow that we have our workflow starting point, the next step is to add those three specific values. We need a way to introduce new data into the workflow's item stream. The best node for this, when you want to *set* or *add* static or dynamically constructed data to the existing items (or create new items with data), is the **Set** node. This node, identified as `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` with `typeVersion: 1`, is incredibly versatile for shaping data as it moves through the workflow.\n\nWe'll connect the `main` output of our \"On clicking 'execute'\" (the Manual Trigger) node directly to the `main` input of our \"Set\" node. This ensures that when the workflow starts, the execution flow immediately proceeds to the Set node, and any empty item that the Manual Trigger might output is then processed by the Set node.\n\nNow, for configuring the \"Set\" node itself, this is where we fulfill the core data requirements. The user specified three distinct values: a number, a string, and a boolean.\nInside the `parameters` of the Set node, under the `values` key, we'll define these:\n\n* First, for the number, we need a property named 'number'. So, we'll add an entry where `name` is \"number\" and its `value` is 20. The Set node is smart enough to infer the data type based on the value provided, so 20 will be correctly interpreted as a number.\n* Next, for the string, we're looking for a property named 'string'. Here, the `name` will be \"string\", and the `value` will be \"From n8n with love\". This is a straightforward string assignment.\n* Finally, for the boolean, we'll add a property named 'boolean'. The `name` will be \"boolean\", and its `value` will be `true`. Again, the Set node will correctly recognize this as a boolean type.\n\nThe `options` parameter for the Set node is empty (`{}`), which means we're using its default behavior. This typically means it will add these new fields to the items it receives, not overwrite everything or perform complex transformations beyond simple addition. In our case, the Manual Trigger likely outputs an empty item, so the Set node will effectively create an item containing just these three new properties.\n\nSo, the flow is simple: trigger starts, and then the Set node immediately enriches that initial item with our desired number, string, and boolean values. This setup perfectly matches the requirements for a manual start and specific data injection." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Search DB'.

The request is pretty clear: we need a workflow named 'Search DB' that begins with a specific trigger and then performs a simple data manipulation.\n\nFirst off, the overall name for this workflow will be \"Search DB,\" which is good for organization and clarity.\n\nSo, where do we begin? The prompt states \"It should start with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node.\" This is a perfect starting point.\n\n**Node 1: Execute Workflow Trigger**\n\nI'd start by adding an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node.\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`\n* **Type Version**: `1`\n\nWhy this node? Well, it's explicitly requested as the starting point. This type of node is essentially a way to programmatically or manually trigger a workflow. It's often used when one workflow needs to call another as a sub-process, or when you want a simple manual start button for testing or specific internal operations. It doesn't listen for external events like an HTTP request or a cron schedule; it's activated directly. Since the JSON shows no specific parameters configured (`\"parameters\": {}`), it will just act as a basic initiator, generating an initial item for the next node to process. It's clean and simple for kicking things off.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt asks to \"use an 'Edit Fields' (Set) node to create a field named 'response' with the string value '10 results found'.\" This sounds like a straightforward data modification task.\n\n**Node 2: Edit Fields (Set)**\n\nFollowing the trigger, I'll add an 'Edit Fields' node. In n8n, this is typically represented by the 'Set' node.\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version**: `3.4`\n\nWhy the 'Set' node? This node is perfectly designed for adding new fields to items, modifying existing ones, or even renaming them. Since the goal is to create a *new* field called 'response' and assign it a specific value, the 'Set' node is the most direct and idiomatic choice. I could potentially use a 'Code' node, but for such a simple assignment, 'Set' is much more visually intuitive and requires no scripting.\n\nNow, let's configure this 'Set' node based on the requirements.\n* We need to add a new assignment.\n* The `name` of the new field needs to be `\"response\"`. This directly matches the prompt's requirement.\n* The `value` for this field should be the string `\"10 results found\"`. This is exactly what the prompt specifies.\n* And, crucially, the `type` of this value is a `\"string\"`. The 'Set' node allows us to explicitly define the type, ensuring data integrity down the line if other nodes expect a string.\n\nSo, the 'Set' node will receive the item (likely an empty one, or a default one from the 'Execute Workflow Trigger'), and then it will add a new key-value pair to that item: `response: \"10 results found\"`. This modified item will then be passed to its output.\n\n**Connecting the Nodes**\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The 'Execute Workflow Trigger' should flow directly into the 'Edit Fields' node.\n* The `main` output of the 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node connects to the `main` input of the 'Edit Fields' node.\n\nThis connection ensures that as soon as the workflow is triggered by the 'Execute Workflow Trigger', the processing immediately moves to the 'Edit Fields' node, where the 'response' field is created on the incoming data item. This creates a linear, sequential flow as desired. The data simply passes from the trigger, which effectively just starts the process, into the 'Set' node for the intended data manipulation." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

The prompt clearly states it \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me the first node I need.\n\nSo, I'd bring in a **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and in this JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This is the perfect choice because it allows me, or anyone testing the workflow, to manually initiate it by clicking a button. It doesn't require any complex setup; its purpose is simply to start the execution flow. I don't need to configure any specific parameters for it to work as a basic trigger. It will just output a single item to kick things off.\n\nNext, the prompt says this trigger \"should connect to a DebugHelper node configured to produce 100 random data items with a seed of '0'.\" So, the very next logical step is to add that **DebugHelper** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper`, and again, `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how do these two connect? The `manualTrigger` is the start, so its primary output should feed directly into the `DebugHelper`'s primary input. This is a standard `main` connection, meaning the data (or in this case, just the signal that the workflow has started) flows from the trigger to the DebugHelper. The `DebugHelper` will then activate once it receives that signal from the `manualTrigger`.\n\nOnce the `DebugHelper` node is in place, I need to configure it precisely as the prompt specifies. It needs to \"produce 100 random data items with a seed of '0'.\"\n* To produce random data, the `DebugHelper` node has a parameter called `category`. I'd set this to `randomData`. This tells the node, \"Hey, I don't want to just pass data through or display it; I want you to *generate* random data.\"\n* Then, to control *how many* items are generated, there's the `randomDataCount` parameter. The prompt specifies \"100 random data items,\" so I'd set `randomDataCount` to `100`.\n* Finally, and this is important for reproducibility, the prompt asks for a \"seed of '0'.\" This goes into the `randomDataSeed` parameter. Setting a seed ensures that even though the data is \"random,\" it will be the *same* random data every time the workflow runs with that seed. This is incredibly useful for debugging and testing, as it makes the output predictable. If I didn't set a seed, the \"random\" data would be different on each execution, which might make it harder to troubleshoot issues.\n\nSo, the `DebugHelper` node is configured with `category: \"randomData\"`, `randomDataSeed: \"0\"`, and `randomDataCount: 100`.\n\nThat's it. The workflow starts manually, triggers the `DebugHelper` node, and the `DebugHelper` then generates 100 consistent, \"random\" data items for subsequent processing or inspection, exactly as requested. There are no further nodes or complex data transformations needed for this specific request." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named 'My workflow' that begins with a Schedule Trigger and flows sequentially into two 'Set' nodes (named 'Set' and 'Set1'), both configured with an empty string assignment 'other'.

That's a setting for the entire workflow, so I'll keep that in mind for the end, ensuring `active: false` is set.\n\nThe prompt states it \"begins with a Schedule Trigger\". That's a clear starting point. I'll need to add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger`. Looking at the JSON, it's named \"Schedule Trigger\", which matches. Its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect as the very first step because its sole purpose is to kick off a workflow at predefined intervals or, in this case, to simulate a trigger with specific sample data. It doesn't really need a complex schedule defined for an inactive workflow that just serves as a blueprint, so the empty `rule: { interval: [{}] }` configuration is perfectly fine.\n\nNow, a crucial part of the Schedule Trigger's setup for this particular request is the sample output data. The prompt specifies \"sample output data comprising two items: the first with fields 'count', 'with space', 'with.dot', and 'with\\\"quotes', and the second with 'count'.\" I need to make sure this is accurately represented in the workflow's `pinData`. Looking at the provided JSON, under `pinData`, there's a \"Schedule Trigger\" entry. It has an array with two objects under `json.input`.\nThe first object is `{\"count\": 0, \"with space\": \"!!\", \"with.dot\": \"!!\", \"with\\\"quotes\": \"!!\"}`. This perfectly matches the first item's field requirements. The \"!!\" are just placeholder values, which is common for sample data.\nThe second object is `{\"count\": 1}`. This matches the second item's requirement. So, the `pinData` for the Schedule Trigger is correctly set up to provide the specified sample output, which is essential for testing downstream nodes without actually running the schedule.\n\nNext, the prompt says the workflow \"flows sequentially into two 'Set' nodes\". So, after my Schedule Trigger, the very next node needs to be a Set node.\nI'll add the first Set node. From the JSON, its name is \"Set\", its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is `3.3`. A Set node is ideal here because its purpose is to manipulate or set data on items passing through the workflow. The requirement is to assign an empty string to a field named 'other'.\nLooking at its `parameters`, there's an `assignments` object, which contains an array of individual assignments. Inside that array, there's one entry with `name: \"other\"`, `value: \"\"`, and `type: \"string\"`. This perfectly fulfills the requirement of configuring it with an empty string assignment 'other'. This node will take the input from the Schedule Trigger and simply add this new field to each item, which is exactly what a Set node is designed to do.\n\nNow, how does it connect? The workflow \"flows sequentially\", so the output of the \"Schedule Trigger\" needs to connect to the input of this \"Set\" node. The JSON's `connections` section confirms this: `{\"Schedule Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This shows the \"main\" output of the Schedule Trigger connects to the \"main\" input of the \"Set\" node. This is standard sequential flow.\n\nFollowing the sequence, there's a second 'Set' node.\nI'll add this node, named \"Set1\" according to the JSON. Its type is also `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is `3.3`, just like the previous one. It needs the same configuration: an empty string assignment 'other'.\nLooking at its `parameters`, again, it has an `assignments` object with the same array entry: `name: \"other\"`, `value: \"\"`, `type: \"string\"`. This is consistent. The reason for two Set nodes doing the same thing might be to just demonstrate sequential processing, or perhaps in a real-world scenario, they would perform different operations, but for this specific prompt, they're identical in configuration.\n\nFor the connection, this \"Set1\" node needs to receive data from the first \"Set\" node. The `connections` section confirms this too: `{\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the \"main\" output of \"Set\" connects to the \"main\" input of \"Set1\", ensuring the data flows correctly from one node to the next in the intended sequence.\n\nFinally, just to re-check the top-level workflow settings, the prompt specified that the workflow should be \"inactive\". The JSON confirms this with `active: false`. This ensures the workflow won't automatically trigger based on the Schedule Trigger's (undefined) schedule, which is good for a template or a workflow designed for manual execution or testing." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a POST Webhook node connected to a Set node.

The user wants a specific setup: a POST Webhook connected to a Set node, with some example JSON data for the Webhook. This sounds like a common pattern for starting workflows, so I'm thinking about how best to initiate and then process data.\n\nFirst things first, the entry point. The prompt explicitly states it needs to start with a \"POST Webhook node.\" This is ideal because it allows external systems to trigger our workflow by sending data. So, my initial thought is to grab a `Webhook` node. Looking at the JSON, I see `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` with `typeVersion: 1`. That's the standard Webhook node, which is exactly what we need.\n\nI'll place this `Webhook` node on the canvas. Now, how do I configure it? The prompt specifies \"POST Webhook,\" so I'll need to set the HTTP method. In the node's parameters, I'd look for `httpMethod` and ensure it's set to `\"POST\"`. The JSON confirms this, showing `\"httpMethod\": \"POST\"`. Perfect.\n\nNext, a Webhook needs a unique path to listen on. The JSON shows a `path` parameter as `\"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\"`. This looks like a UUID, which is a great way to ensure the URL is unique and hard to guess. I'd typically let n8n generate one, or I might specify a human-readable one if it's for a known integration, but a UUID is perfectly functional and secure by obscurity. The `webhookId` also matches this, which makes sense as it's the internal identifier. The `options` are empty, meaning we're going with the default behavior for now, which is fine for a basic setup.\n\nNow, about the example test data. The user wants to see a received JSON body `{'here': 'be', 'dragons': true}`. This is represented in the `pinData` section for the `Webhook` node. When designing, I'd imagine a test run where an external system sends this JSON. So, when the Webhook node executes in test mode (or receives an actual request), it would capture this `body` alongside other standard request details like `headers` (e.g., `host`, `content-type`, `content-length`), `params` (if there were any URL parameters), `query` (if there were any query string parameters), and the full `webhookUrl`. This `pinData` accurately reflects what we'd expect to see coming out of the Webhook node if that specific JSON body was sent.\n\nAfter the `Webhook` node, the prompt states it should be \"connected to a Set node.\" This is a straightforward requirement. So, my next step is to add a `Set` node. Looking at the JSON, it's `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is the standard Set node, often used for adding, modifying, or removing fields from items.\n\nI'll place this `Set` node next to the `Webhook` node. How should it be configured? The JSON shows `parameters.options` as empty. This means the `Set` node isn't actually *setting* any new values right now; it's essentially acting as a pass-through. This is perfectly valid. Perhaps the user intends to add logic here later, like transforming the data received from the webhook, or maybe it's just a placeholder to ensure the connection works for demonstration purposes. If it were a real design choice, I'd consider if a simpler connection without an intermediate node would suffice if no data manipulation is intended, but for now, I'll follow the blueprint.\n\nFinally, the connection between these two nodes. The `connections` object clearly shows that the `Webhook` node's `main` output should connect to the `Set` node's `main` input. This is the most common type of connection in n8n, meaning all data items (in this case, the single item containing the webhook's received data) will flow directly from the `Webhook` node to the `Set` node. I'd simply drag a connection line from the output of the `Webhook` to the input of the `Set`.\n\nSo, in summary, the workflow starts by listening for a POST request on a unique path via the Webhook node, which captures the incoming JSON body.

The user wants a workflow named \"Search DB,\" and it needs to start with a specific trigger, then flow into a node that manipulates data, and finally, the entire workflow should be inactive.\n\nFirst things first, I'd start by naming the workflow itself. The request clearly states \"Search DB,\" so that's what I'd put in for the workflow's name. And critically, it needs to be \"inactive,\" so I'd make sure that main toggle for the workflow's active state is set to `false` right from the start. That way, it won't accidentally run while I'm building or until it's explicitly activated.\n\nNow, onto the actual nodes that make up the logic. The prompt explicitly says it \"starts with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node.\" This is quite specific. An `Execute Workflow Trigger` (which in the JSON I see is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`) isn't your typical HTTP or Cron trigger. This node is designed to be activated *from another workflow*. It's perfect for building modular systems where one workflow can call or 'trigger' another to perform a specific sub-task. Its parameters are empty `{}`, which is expected for this type of trigger; it doesn't need any specific setup to wait for a trigger, it just listens. I'd place this as the very first node in the workflow, probably somewhere on the left side of the canvas to signify its starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt states this trigger \"should connect to an 'Edit Fields' node.\" When I hear \"Edit Fields,\" I immediately think of the `Set` node in n8n, which is used for exactly that purpose \u2013 setting or modifying fields. Looking at the JSON, confirmed, it's `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.4`. This is the perfect node type for what's required here because its primary function is to take incoming data (even if it's empty from the trigger in this case) and add or modify properties on that data.\n\nSo, for this `Edit Fields` (Set) node, the crucial part is its configuration. The prompt says it \"sets a field named 'response' with the string value '10 results found'.\" I'd go into the node's settings and add an \"assignment.\"\n* The `name` of the field to be set would be \"response.\"\n* The `value` for this field would be the literal string \"10 results found.\"\n* And importantly, the `type` of this value is specified as \"string.\" This ensures that n8n handles \"10 results found\" as plain text, not trying to interpret it as a number or a boolean, for example.\n\nFinally, the connection between these two nodes is straightforward. The `Execute Workflow Trigger`'s `main` output needs to connect directly to the `Edit Fields` (Set) node's `main` input. This establishes a simple, linear flow: when the trigger fires, it passes its (currently empty) data stream to the `Edit Fields` node, which then adds the \"response\" field with its specified value to that data stream. The positioning in the JSON shows the `Edit Fields` node slightly to the right of the trigger, which makes sense visually for a left-to-right flow. This setup perfectly fulfills all the requirements laid out in the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an N8n workflow starting with two Webhook nodes, both connecting to a Hacker News node configured to fetch article ID 123, which then flows into a Set node named \"Edit Fields\".", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.3, \"position\": [1140, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"30ff316d-405f-4288-a0ac-e713546c9d4e\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [680, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"articleId\": \"123\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Hacker News\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.hackerNews\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [920, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"4a3398e4-1388-4e10-9d21-add90b804955\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [680, 180]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Hacker News\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Hacker News\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Hacker News\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start planning out this n8n workflow from scratch, just like the prompt describes.\n\nThe goal is pretty clear: we need two separate entry points using webhooks, both of which will trigger a request to the Hacker News API to get a specific article, and then that data will pass into a node for further processing.\n\nSo, the very first thing that comes to mind is how this workflow is going to be triggered. The prompt explicitly says it starts with two Webhook nodes. This immediately tells me I need to pull in the `Webhook` node type. I'll probably add one, configure it, and then duplicate it or add another one just like it.\n\nLet's grab the first `Webhook` node. I'll add a `Webhook` node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, typeVersion: `2`). This is perfect for external systems to send data to our workflow or simply to trigger it via an HTTP request. For its configuration, I'd need to define a unique path. Looking at the JSON, one of them is named \"Webhook\" and has a specific path like \"4a3398e4-1388-4e10-9d21-add90b804955\". This path ensures that when an HTTP request hits that specific URL, this particular webhook node gets activated. I'll leave other options at their defaults for now, as the prompt doesn't specify any unique request methods or response types.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"two Webhook nodes\". So, I'll add another `Webhook` node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, typeVersion: `2`). I'll give it a distinct name like \"Webhook1\" to differentiate it from the first, and naturally, it needs its own unique path, something like \"30ff316d-405f-4288-a0ac-e713546c9d4e\" as seen in the provided structure. This ensures that both webhooks can operate independently, each listening for requests on their own designated URL.\n\nNow that we have our triggers, what's next? Both webhooks are supposed to connect to a \"Hacker News node configured to fetch article ID 123\". This is the core logic after the trigger. So, I'll search for the `Hacker News` node type. I'd add a `Hacker News` node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.hackerNews`, typeVersion: `1`). This node is specifically designed to interact with the Hacker News API, so it's the ideal choice for fetching article data.\n\nOnce I've placed the Hacker News node, I need to configure it. The prompt is very specific: it should \"fetch article ID 123\". So, I'll go into the parameters of this Hacker News node and locate the \"Article ID\" field. Here, I'll input `123`. This tells the node exactly which piece of data to retrieve from Hacker News. I don't see any other specific configurations required for this node in the prompt or the JSON, so I'll assume default values for other settings.\n\nWith the Hacker News node configured, it's time to connect the pieces. The prompt states \"both connecting to a Hacker News node\". So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of my first `Webhook` node (the one named \"Webhook\") to the `main` input of the `Hacker News` node. This means when \"Webhook\" receives a request, its data will flow into the Hacker News node, triggering it to fetch the article. Then, I'll do the same for the \"Webhook1\" node, connecting its `main` output to the `main` input of the *same* `Hacker News` node. This way, either webhook can initiate the Hacker News lookup. It's a clean way to have multiple entry points leading to the same process.\n\nFinally, the prompt says the Hacker News node \"then flows into a Set node named \"Edit Fields\"\". So, after the Hacker News node successfully retrieves the article data, we want to perform some operations on that data. A `Set` node is perfect for manipulating or adding fields to the incoming data. I'll add a `Set` node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.set`, typeVersion: `3.3`). The prompt also specifies its name, \"Edit Fields,\" so I'll set that name for clarity.\n\nTo complete the flow, I'll connect the `main` output of the `Hacker News` node to the `main` input of the \"Edit Fields\" `Set` node. This ensures that whatever article data is fetched by the Hacker News node will be passed directly into the Set node, where it can then be modified, renamed, or new fields can be added based on whatever subsequent logic is required. The `Set` node itself doesn't have any specific parameters mentioned beyond its name in this prompt, so I'd leave its field configurations empty, ready for future adjustments where I'd define what exactly needs to be set or modified. And that completes the requested workflow structure." } { "prompt": "Every 15 minutes, read data from the Google Sheet '1GT2dc0dOkAC1apY0UlTKY9vitBl8PtKrILwFiAy5VBs', convert it to an XLS file, and then upload it to Dropbox at the path `\/my-sheets\/prices.xls`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"sheetId\": \"1GT2dc0dOkAC1apY0UlTKY9vitBl8PtKrILvFiAy5VBs\"}, \"name\": \"Read Sheet\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"toFile\"}, \"name\": \"Convert to XLS\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"\/my-sheets\/prices.xls\", \"binaryData\": true}, \"name\": \"Upload Dropbox\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.dropbox\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [850, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"unit\": \"minutes\", \"interval\": 15}, \"name\": \"Trigger all 15 min\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.interval\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Read Sheet\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Convert to XLS\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Convert to XLS\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Upload Dropbox\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Trigger all 15 min\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Read Sheet\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's break down how I'd approach building this workflow, step by step, keeping the user's prompt in mind: \"Every 15 minutes, read data from the Google Sheet '1GT2dc0dOkAC1apY0UlTKY9vitBl8PtKrILwFiAy5VBs', convert it to an XLS file, and then upload it to Dropbox at the path `\/my-sheets\/prices.xls`.\"\n\nThe very first thing that jumps out is the \"Every 15 minutes\" part. This tells me I need a starting point for my workflow that isn't just a manual execution. It needs to be a scheduled trigger.\n\nFor scheduling, n8n has a fantastic set of trigger nodes. The `n8n-nodes-base.interval` node is perfect for this kind of recurring schedule based on a time unit. So, I'd start by adding that. I'll name it something descriptive like \"Trigger all 15 min\" as per the plan. Its `typeVersion` is 1.\n\nNow, I need to configure this \"Trigger all 15 min\" node to run precisely every 15 minutes. Looking at its parameters, I'd set the `unit` to \"minutes\" and the `interval` to \"15\". This sets up the automatic execution of the workflow exactly as requested.\n\nNext, after the workflow is triggered, what's the first actual task? It's \"read data from the Google Sheet\". This clearly indicates a need to interact with Google Sheets. n8n has a dedicated `n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets` node, which is exactly what I need for this. I'll call this node \"Read Sheet\". Its `typeVersion` is 1.\n\nI'll connect the \"Trigger all 15 min\" node's main output to the \"Read Sheet\" node's main input. This ensures that every time the interval trigger fires, the workflow proceeds to read the data.\n\nNow, for configuring the \"Read Sheet\" node. The prompt specifies a particular Google Sheet ID: '1GT2dc0dOkAC1apY0UlTKY9vitBl8PtKrILwFiAy5VBs'. So, I would input this identifier into the `sheetId` parameter of the Google Sheets node. Of course, for this to work, appropriate Google API credentials would also need to be configured, allowing n8n to access the sheet on my behalf.\n\nOnce the data is read from Google Sheets, the prompt says \"convert it to an XLS file\". This is a transformation step. The data coming out of the Google Sheets node will typically be in a structured JSON format, representing rows and columns. I need a node that can take this structured data and package it into a specific file format.\n\nThe `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile` node is ideal for this. It's designed to perform operations on spreadsheet files, including converting data to various formats. I'll name it \"Convert to XLS\". Its `typeVersion` is 1.\n\nI'll connect the \"Read Sheet\" node's main output to the \"Convert to XLS\" node's main input. This sends the data retrieved from the Google Sheet directly to the conversion node.\n\nFor the \"Convert to XLS\" node's configuration, the key is the `operation`. Since I want to create a file from the incoming data, I'd set the `operation` parameter to \"toFile\". This operation typically allows you to select the output format, and I'd ensure \"XLS\" is selected as the target format. The node will then take the structured data and output a binary file ready for the next step.\n\nFinally, after the data is converted into an XLS file, the instruction is to \"upload it to Dropbox at the path `\/my-sheets\/prices.xls`.\" This points directly to the `n8n-nodes-base.dropbox` node. I'll call this \"Upload Dropbox\". Its `typeVersion` is 1.\n\nThe connection for this last step will be from the \"Convert to XLS\" node's main output to the \"Upload Dropbox\" node's main input. This ensures the newly generated XLS file is passed along for uploading.\n\nConfiguring the \"Upload Dropbox\" node requires two main pieces of information from the prompt: the destination path and acknowledging that the input is binary data. So, I would set the `path` parameter to `\/my-sheets\/prices.xls`. Additionally, since the `spreadsheetFile` node outputs a binary file, it's crucial to set the `binaryData` parameter to `true` in the Dropbox node. This tells the node to expect and correctly handle a file upload rather than text data. As with Google Sheets, Dropbox API credentials would be configured here to allow the workflow to interact with my Dropbox account.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. The data flows logically from trigger to source, then to transformation, and finally to its destination." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

It should then use the n8n node to manage a credential named '123' of type '123', authenticated using an 'n8n account' credential.\"\n\nMy first thought, whenever I'm building a workflow, is always about the *trigger*. How is this workflow supposed to start? The prompt explicitly states it should \"start with a manual trigger.\" This makes it straightforward.\n\nLooking at the JSON, I see a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is precisely what's needed. I'd name it something descriptive, like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" which is what's done in the JSON. This node is perfect because it allows for immediate, on-demand execution, which is great for testing or when you need to kick off a process manually without relying on a schedule or an external event. The `typeVersion: 1` indicates it's the initial stable version of this basic node, and for a simple trigger like this, there's typically no need to consider a different version unless specific new features are required. This will be my starting point, positioned conveniently at the left side of the canvas.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"It should then use the n8n node to manage a credential.\" This immediately tells me the next step. I need a node that can interact with the n8n instance itself, specifically for managing credentials. There's a dedicated \"n8n\" node for this purpose, designed to manage internal n8n resources like workflows, users, and, yes, credentials.\n\nChecking the JSON, I see a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.n8n\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This confirms my choice. The name \"n8n\" is appropriate for it.\n\nNow, how do I connect these two? The `manualTrigger` node's primary purpose is to initiate the workflow and pass execution flow down the line. So, I'll connect the \"main\" output of the `manualTrigger` node to the \"main\" input of the \"n8n\" node. This ensures that once the workflow is manually triggered, the \"n8n\" node will execute next. The connection is a simple sequential flow, without any complex data transformation at this point, as the manual trigger simply provides a basic execution signal.\n\nThe crucial part is configuring the \"n8n\" node. The prompt is very specific: \"manage a credential named '123' of type '123', authenticated using an 'n8n account' credential.\"\n\nInside the \"n8n\" node's parameters, I'd first look for the `resource` field. Since the goal is to manage a credential, I'd set `resource: \"credential\"`. This tells the n8n node what type of n8n internal object it's going to interact with.\n\nThen, to specify *which* credential and *what type* of credential, I'd look for fields like `name` and `credentialTypeName`. The prompt dictates \"named '123' of type '123'\", so I'd configure `name: \"123\"` and `credentialTypeName: \"123\"`. These values define the specific credential that this node will attempt to manage or operate on. For instance, if the operation were to create, it would attempt to create a credential with that name and type. If it were to update or delete, it would target one matching those specifics.\n\nFinally, the prompt mentions \"authenticated using an 'n8n account' credential.\" This points directly to the `credentials` section of the \"n8n\" node. This node needs to authenticate to the n8n instance itself to perform its operations. So, I would select an existing n8n account credential. In the JSON, it's specified as `credentials: {\"n8nApi\": {\"id\": \"10\", \"name\": \"n8n account\"}}`. This is an essential step, as without proper authentication, the node wouldn't have the necessary permissions to manage credentials within the n8n instance. It correctly points to a pre-configured credential that grants access to the n8n API.\n\nThe `typeVersion: 1` for the n8n node is quite common. For a foundational operation like managing a resource, the core functionality is usually stable across versions. Newer versions might add more operations (e.g., specific update types, more filters), but the basic `resource` selection and name\/type parameters typically remain consistent.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The `position` fields are just for visual layout on the canvas, helping to organize the nodes. The `id` fields are unique identifiers generated by n8n. The core logic is the `manualTrigger` starting the process, connected to the `n8n` node, which is configured to specifically manage a credential resource by its name and type, all while authenticating with an appropriate n8n account credential." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"My workflow\" that starts with a manual trigger.

The user prompt is quite specific about what needs to be done.\n\nFirst, I need to think about the trigger. The prompt clearly states \"starts with a manual trigger\". This is fundamental for any workflow that won't be activated by an external event or a schedule. It's perfect for testing and for workflows that a user initiates directly.\n\nSo, the very first node I'll add will be the **Manual Trigger** node.\nIts `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is ideal because it provides a simple \"Execute workflow\" button in the n8n UI, allowing for direct initiation. There aren't really any parameters to configure for this particular node; it simply acts as the starting point when manually triggered. No inputs are needed for this one, it just outputs a single item to kick things off.\n\nNext, the prompt says to connect this to a \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node configured to \"getAllPeople\" with a limit of 10. This tells me exactly what the second step should be. After the manual trigger fires, I want to fetch some data. The \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node sounds like a specific n8n-provided mock data source, likely for training purposes, so it's precisely what's needed here.\n\nI'll add the **Customer Datastore (n8n training)** node.\nIts `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is designed to interact with a simulated customer datastore. Its purpose is to retrieve or manipulate customer data within a training environment. I'll connect its main input to the main output of the Manual Trigger node, so that when the manual trigger runs, it flows directly into this datastore node.\n\nNow, for its configuration. The prompt specifies \"getAllPeople\" as the operation and a \"limit of 10\". So, I'll go into the parameters for this node.\nI need to set the `operation` to `getAllPeople`. This operation makes sense as it aligns with the goal of fetching people's data.\nAnd then, crucially, I need to apply a `limit`. The prompt states \"limit of 10\", so I'll set the `limit` parameter to `10`. This is important for controlling the volume of data being retrieved, preventing potentially overwhelming the workflow with too many items if the datastore contains a very large number of people. It's good practice to limit results, especially in initial testing or when dealing with large datasets.\n\nFinally, the prompt instructs me to \"connect the output to a 'Set' node which adds `objectValue.prop1` as the number `123` and `objectValue.prop2` as the string `someText`, ensuring dot notation is enabled.\" This means after getting the customer data, I need to modify or enrich that data with some new properties. The \"Set\" node is absolutely perfect for this, as its primary function is to add or modify fields in the incoming data items.\n\nSo, I'll add the **Set** node.\nIts `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. I'll connect its main input to the main output of the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node. This ensures that the data fetched from the datastore will be passed directly into the Set node for modification.\n\nFor the configuration of the Set node, the requirements are very specific. I need to add two new properties:\n1. `objectValue.prop1` as the number `123`.\n2. `objectValue.prop2` as the string `someText`.\nAnd importantly, \"ensuring dot notation is enabled\".\n\nSo, I'll open the parameters for the Set node.\nUnder the `values` section, I'll start by adding a new `number` type field. The `name` for this field will be `objectValue.prop1`, and its `value` will be `123`.\nThen, I'll add a new `string` type field. The `name` for this one will be `objectValue.prop2`, and its `value` will be `someText`.\n\nNow, the critical part: `dotNotation`. The prompt explicitly says to enable it. This option is usually found under `options` within the node's parameters. I'll ensure that `dotNotation` is set to `true`. This is crucial because `objectValue.prop1` and `objectValue.prop2` use dot notation to define nested properties. If dot notation were not enabled, the Set node would likely create a single top-level property named \"objectValue.prop1\" (as a string literal) instead of an object `objectValue` containing a property `prop1`. Enabling it ensures the correct hierarchical data structure is created.\n\nThe connections are now set: Manual Trigger -> Customer Datastore -> Set.\nThe workflow name is \"My workflow\", as requested.\nThe `active` property is `false`, meaning it's currently deactivated, which is fine for a workflow that's being designed or tested.\n\nThat completes the workflow as per the prompt. It starts, fetches a limited set of customer data, and then enriches each of those data items with two new, nested properties." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers via a webhook.

It's the standard way to expose an HTTP endpoint that can receive incoming requests and initiate an n8n workflow.\n\nI'll add a Webhook node. Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and I see it's `typeVersion: 1`. This version is pretty standard and robust for handling basic webhook triggers. For its configuration, I'd typically set a path to make the URL unique. The JSON shows a `path` that looks like a unique identifier, `f6d0071e-3cf9-49fd-8bbd-afdbea6b0c67`, which also happens to match the `webhookId`. This is good; it means the webhook will respond to requests made to a specific URL, allowing external systems to call it. The `options` parameter is empty, which implies we're fine with the default settings for the webhook, usually allowing both GET and POST requests. This keeps it flexible for whatever system might be calling it.\n\nOnce the webhook receives a request, what happens next? The core of the requirement is to \"connect this webhook to a PostHog node.\" So, my logical next step is to add a PostHog node. This node is specifically designed to interact with the PostHog analytics platform, making it the perfect choice for sending events.\n\nI'll bring in the PostHog node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.postHog`, and also `typeVersion: 1`. This means it's current and handles the PostHog API reliably. Now, the crucial part is configuring it.\n\nThe prompt specifies that the PostHog node should be configured to \"use the `query.event` from the incoming request as the event name.\" This is an important detail. The data from the incoming webhook request will be available to subsequent nodes. For the \"Event Name\" parameter in the PostHog node, I need to use an expression to pull that specific piece of data. Looking at the JSON, the `eventName` parameter is set to `={{$json[\"query\"][\"event\"]}}`. This expression correctly points to the `event` property nested inside the `query` object of the incoming JSON data from the previous Webhook node. This is exactly what we need to dynamically set the event name based on the incoming request.\n\nNext, the prompt states to use \"'n8n' as the distinct ID.\" This is a static value. So, for the `distinctId` parameter in the PostHog node, I'll simply enter \"n8n\". No expression needed here; it's a fixed string.\n\nThere's also `additionalFields` in the JSON, which is an empty object `{}`. This tells me that beyond the event name and distinct ID, no other custom properties are being sent with this particular PostHog event, which aligns with the prompt's simplicity. If we needed to send more context (like `product_id` or `user_type`), we would define those here.\n\nFinally, for the PostHog node to communicate with the PostHog API, it needs credentials. The prompt mentions \"utilizing 'PostHog Credentials'.\" In n8n, this means we'd have a named set of credentials configured globally. The JSON confirms this by showing `credentials: {\"postHogApi\": \"PostHog Credentials\"}`. This is how the node knows which API key and project ID to use for authentication without embedding sensitive information directly in the workflow definition.\n\nNow that both nodes are configured, I need to connect them. The flow is straightforward: the Webhook receives data, and that data then needs to be passed along to the PostHog node. So, the output of the Webhook node should connect to the input of the PostHog node. Looking at the `connections` in the JSON, it shows `{\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"PostHog\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This confirms that the `main` output of the \"Webhook\" node is connected to the `main` input of the \"PostHog\" node. This ensures that whatever data the webhook receives, including the query parameters, is available for the PostHog node to process, specifically for extracting that `query.event` value.\n\nThis setup looks complete. The webhook will listen for requests, extract the necessary event data, and then the PostHog node will send that event, along with the specified distinct ID, to the configured PostHog instance." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON containing a single Webhook node. Include the `pinData` object, populated with typical input received during a test execution of the webhook.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [360, 220]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow. The request is quite specific: a single Webhook node, populated with test data. This immediately tells me what the core of the workflow will be and how it should behave.\n\nThe first, and in this case, only component we need to focus on is the Webhook node. This makes perfect sense because the goal is to receive incoming data. Whenever an external system needs to send data to an n8n workflow, a Webhook node is the standard, go-to solution. It acts as an HTTP endpoint, listening for requests.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding a **Webhook node**. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and its `typeVersion` is `2`. This is a common and stable version of the node. The `typeVersion` is important because different versions might have slightly different parameters or behaviors, but for a basic webhook, version 2 is perfectly suitable and widely used.\n\nNow, let's configure this Webhook node.\nIts `name` is simply \"Webhook\", which is fine for a single-node workflow.\nThe `id` (`8fcc7e5f-2cef-4938-9564-eea504c2aa0`) and `position` (`[360, 220]`) are internal identifiers and layout coordinates n8n uses, so I don't directly configure those as a designer, but they are essential for the workflow's structure.\nMore importantly, we look at its `parameters`.\n* The `path` is set to `\"FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ\"`. This is crucial. It defines the unique segment of the URL where this specific webhook will listen for incoming requests. It's like giving it a specific address extension. This string is typically a unique, automatically generated identifier to ensure no two active webhooks share the same endpoint, unless explicitly configured to do so.\n* Under `options`, we see an empty object `{}`. This means we're using all the default options for the webhook. If we needed to specify the allowed HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT), add authentication headers, or change the response behavior, we would populate this `options` object. But for a basic \"receive data\" scenario, defaults are often sufficient.\n* There's also a `webhookId` (`9c778f2a-e882-46ed-a0e4-c8e2f76ccd65`). This is another internal identifier, often generated by n8n when the workflow is activated, distinct from the node's `id`. It helps n8n manage and route incoming webhook requests efficiently.\n\nSince the request specifies a *single* Webhook node, there are no `connections` to define, which is reflected by the empty `connections` object in the JSON. This workflow starts and effectively ends with receiving the data.\n\nFinally, let's address the `pinData` object. This is a very useful feature in n8n, as it stores the actual input data that a node received during a test execution. This allows you to re-run the workflow with that specific historical data without having to trigger the external source again. It\u2019s exactly what's requested: \"typical input received during a test execution.\"\n\nThe `pinData` is keyed by the node's name, \"Webhook\", and contains an array of execution data. In this case, there's one element in the array, representing a single test run. Let's look inside that element:\n* `\"headers\"`: This object contains typical HTTP headers that would accompany an incoming request. We see common ones like `\"connection\": \"keep-alive\"`, a `\"user-agent\"` (which typically identifies the client making the request, in this case, mimicking a browser), `\"accept\": \"*\/*\"`, and `\"host\": \"localhost:5678\"` which is typical for a local n8n instance. There's also a `\"cookie\"` header; if this test was performed while logged into n8n via a browser, such a cookie would indeed be present, although for a general webhook, one might not explicitly send it. It's a typical example of what *could* be received if the test environment was a browser.\n* `\"params\": {}`: This object would hold path parameters if our webhook path was dynamic (e.g., `\/users\/{id}`). Since our path is a fixed string, this is correctly empty for a typical test.\n* `\"query\": {}`: This is where URL query parameters (like `?name=John&age=30`) would appear. For a general test, an empty query object is perfectly normal, indicating no specific query parameters were appended to the URL.\n* `\"body\": {}`: This represents the request body. For a basic test of a webhook that might just be triggered without a specific payload (or for a GET request), an empty body is a common and typical input. If the webhook was designed to receive JSON data, for instance, this object would contain that JSON payload.\n* `\"webhookUrl\": \"http:\/\/localhost:5678\/webhook-test\/FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ\"`: This is the full URL that was hit during this specific test execution. The `\/webhook-test\/` prefix indicates it was triggered in test mode, and it combines the `localhost:5678` host with our defined `path`. This is very useful for recreating or understanding the exact trigger point.\n* `\"executionMode\": \"test\"`: This explicitly confirms that this `pinData` was captured during a \"test\" execution of the workflow, not a production run. This context is important for understanding the nature of the data.\n\nSo, in essence, this workflow is set up to simply receive any incoming HTTP request at its defined `path` and, via the `pinData`, provides a concrete example of what a simple test request, potentially from a browser, would look like. It's a complete, self-contained example of a basic webhook listening for data." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Get all the tasks in Flow\" that starts with a manual trigger.

The goal is pretty clear: we need to get all tasks from some \"Flow\" service, and it needs to be manually triggerable. The workflow should be named \"Get all the tasks in Flow\".\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, something to kick it off. The prompt specifically says it \"starts with a manual trigger.\" So, that's definitely the first node I'll add.\n\nI'm looking at the JSON now: `{\"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"position\": [250, 300], \"parameters\": {}, \"typeVersion\": 1}`.\n\nSo, I'd bring in the **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and this is absolutely the right choice because, well, it's designed specifically for manual execution, which is what the user requested. The `typeVersion` is `1`, which typically means it's a stable initial release of the node. For a simple trigger like this, `typeVersion` changes are usually about internal optimizations or very minor feature additions, not fundamental behavior. I'll name it \"On clicking 'execute'\" as specified, which is a good descriptive name for a manual trigger. It doesn't need any specific parameters, as its job is just to initiate the workflow; it's not expecting any input data from the user at trigger time. So, I'll leave its parameters empty, `{}`. I'll place it somewhere logical on the canvas, like at `[250, 300]`.\n\nAlright, with the trigger in place, what's next? The prompt states: \"It should then use the \"Flow\" node to retrieve all available tasks.\" This immediately tells me what the second node should be.\n\nLooking at the JSON for the next node: `{\"name\": \"Flow\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.flow\", \"position\": [450, 300], \"parameters\": {\"filters\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\", \"returnAll\": true}, \"credentials\": {\"flowApi\": \"\"}, \"typeVersion\": 1}`.\n\nSo, I'll add the **Flow** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.flow`. This is clearly the correct node as it directly corresponds to the \"Flow\" service mentioned. It implies there's an n8n integration for a system or service called \"Flow\". Its `typeVersion` is also `1`, again, likely a stable initial version.\n\nNow, for configuring this \"Flow\" node. The goal is to \"retrieve all available tasks.\"\nI see the `parameters` block:\n* `\"filters\": {}`: This tells me that we're not applying any specific filters. If we wanted, say, only tasks assigned to a particular user or tasks with a certain status, we'd define those filters here. But since the requirement is \"all available tasks,\" leaving this empty is correct.\n* `\"operation\": \"getAll\"`: This is perfect! The \"getAll\" operation is precisely what's needed to retrieve every available task. This is the core of what this node is supposed to do.\n* `\"returnAll\": true`: This is a very important setting. When dealing with APIs that might return data in pages (e.g., \"give me the first 100 tasks, then the next 100, etc.\"), setting `returnAll` to `true` instructs the n8n node to automatically handle the pagination and fetch *all* available items, rather than just the first page. This ensures we truly get \"all\" tasks, not just a subset.\n\nI also see `credentials\": {\"flowApi\": \"\"}`. This indicates that this \"Flow\" node requires some form of authentication to connect to the external \"Flow\" service. I would need to set up credentials within n8n's Credentials section, likely an API key or an OAuth token, and then select those credentials here. The empty string just means it's referencing a credential setup elsewhere, not that the API key itself is blank. I must make sure to configure that properly for the workflow to actually connect and retrieve data. I'll place this node at `[450, 300]`, slightly to the right of the trigger.\n\nFinally, how do these two nodes connect? A workflow needs a flow of execution.\nLooking at the `connections` block: `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Flow\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`.\n\nThis specifies a connection from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node (the manual trigger) to the \"Flow\" node. The `type: \"main\"` means it's a standard execution path, and `index: 0` likely refers to the first input of the \"Flow\" node. This makes perfect sense: the manual trigger fires, sends a single item (often just an empty object to signal the start), and that item then causes the \"Flow\" node to execute its \"getAll\" operation. The data from the trigger isn't inherently important for the \"Flow\" node's operation, just the signal to run. This is a very common and straightforward pattern for starting workflows." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with a Webhook node at [500, 300] (path: 'webhook', responseData: 'allEntries', responseMode: 'lastNode') connected to a Google Sheets node at [700, 300] (range: 'Problems!A:D', sheetId: '17fzSFl1BZ1njldTfp5lvh8HtS0-pNXH66b7qGZIiGRU').", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"range\": \"Problems!A:D\", \"options\": {}, \"sheetId\": \"17fzSFl1BZ1njldTfp5lvh8HtS0-pNXH66b7qGZIiGRU\"}, \"name\": \"Google Sheets\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [700, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"webhook\", \"options\": {}, \"responseData\": \"allEntries\", \"responseMode\": \"lastNode\"}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Sheets\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow from scratch. The goal here is pretty clear: we need a way to receive data via a webhook and then pass that data along to a Google Sheet.\n\nLooking at the user's prompt, the first thing that jumps out is the \"Webhook node.\" This is typically where you'd start for any workflow that needs to be triggered by an external event, like an incoming HTTP request. So, that's definitely going to be our entry point.\n\nI'd place the **Webhook** node first. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and based on the JSON, we're using `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect for listening for incoming web requests. It's a fundamental trigger node in n8n.\n\nNow, let's configure it. The prompt specifies its position at `[500, 300]`, which is purely for visual layout, keeping things organized on the canvas. The crucial part is its `path`. The prompt says `'webhook'`, so I'll set that. This means the full URL for triggering this workflow will end with `\/webhook`.\n\nNext, the `responseData` is set to `'allEntries'`. This is an interesting choice for a webhook. It means that when the workflow finishes, the webhook will respond with all the data items that were processed throughout the workflow. Sometimes you might choose `lastNode` to only send back the final output, or `none` if no response is needed, but `allEntries` suggests the user wants a comprehensive return. Complementing this, `responseMode` is set to `'lastNode'`. This tells the webhook to collect its response data from the very last node that executes in the main workflow path. So, whatever the Google Sheets node outputs will be part of that `allEntries` response. The `options` object is empty, which is fine; it just means no advanced options like authentication are configured for the webhook itself in this case.\n\nAlright, with the Webhook set up to receive data, the prompt clearly states it needs to be \"connected to a Google Sheets node.\" So, the next logical step is to add our data sink: the **Google Sheets** node.\n\nI'd pull in the `n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets` node. Again, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is ideal for interacting with Google Sheets, whether it's reading, writing, or appending data.\n\nFor its position, the prompt specifies `[700, 300]`. I'll place it to the right of the Webhook node, maintaining a clear left-to-right flow. This also creates a nice, horizontal alignment which is good for readability.\n\nNow, for its parameters. The `range` is set to `'Problems!A:D'`. This is quite specific. It tells the Google Sheets node exactly which part of the spreadsheet it should interact with \u2013 columns A through D within the sheet named \"Problems\". This is crucial for ensuring data goes into the correct place.\n\nThe `sheetId` is also provided: `'17fzSFl1BZ1njldTfp5lvh8HtS0-pNXH66b7qGZIiGRU'`. This unique ID identifies the specific Google Sheet document itself. Without this, the node wouldn't know which spreadsheet to target. Just like with the Webhook, the `options` object for the Google Sheets node is empty, meaning no extra settings like value input options are configured.\n\nFinally, for the Google Sheets node, we see an empty `credentials` field for `googleApi`. This is where the necessary authentication for Google Sheets would be linked. It would typically be a set of credentials allowing n8n to securely access the user's Google account and, specifically, the specified spreadsheet.\n\nWith both nodes in place and configured, the last piece is the connection. The prompt explicitly says the Webhook is \"connected to\" the Google Sheets node. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the **Webhook** node to the `main` input of the **Google Sheets** node. This ensures that any data received by the Webhook will then be passed directly as input to the Google Sheets node for processing. This standard `main` connection is perfect for passing along the data items.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it.

The user prompt specifies a manual trigger, retrieving data, and then adding new properties. Looking at the provided JSON, it seems to align perfectly with these requirements.\n\nThe very first thing any workflow needs is a way to start, right? Based on the prompt and the JSON, the workflow is designed to be initiated manually. So, my initial thought is to grab a trigger node that fits that description. The JSON points to a node with `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion: 1`. This \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node is perfect for that. It\u2019s a standard way to kick off a workflow for testing or for a human-initiated run, rather than something that reacts to an external event or a schedule. It doesn't need any specific parameters configured, it just sits there waiting for someone to hit that \"Test workflow\" button. This establishes the entry point for our data flow.\n\nNext up, the prompt mentions retrieving 10 people from a \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\". After the workflow is manually triggered, the natural progression is to go get that data. I'll need a node that can interact with this specific data source. Scanning the JSON, I see a node with `name: \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\"`, `type: n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`, and `typeVersion: 1`. This looks like a custom or specialized node designed exactly for this purpose within the n8n training environment. It's the ideal choice to follow our manual trigger.\n\nNow, how do I configure this \"Customer Datastore\" node? The prompt explicitly states to retrieve \"10 people\". Looking at the node's parameters in the JSON, I see `{\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\", \"limit\": 10}`. This is exactly what we need. The `operation` being `getAllPeople` ensures we're fetching records of people, and the `limit` of `10` restricts the number of results to precisely what the prompt asked for. This means after the trigger fires, this node will execute, reach out to the \"Customer Datastore\", and pull back a batch of 10 customer records, which will then be passed on as items to the next node in the workflow. The connection from the manual trigger to this datastore node would just be a standard main output connection, passing control flow to initiate the data retrieval.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies adding new properties `objectValue.prop1` (number 123) and `objectValue.prop2` (string 'someText') using a Set node with dot notation. After we've retrieved our customer data, the next logical step is to modify or augment that data. A `Set` node is the standard tool in n8n for adding, modifying, or removing fields from items. So, I'd connect the output of our \"Customer Datastore\" node to a new `Set` node.\n\nLooking at the JSON, the `Set` node is named `Set`, has `type: n8n-nodes-base.set`, and `typeVersion: 1`. This is exactly the node type I'd expect. Now for its configuration. The JSON shows `{\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop1\", \"value\": 123}], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop2\", \"value\": \"someText\"}]}, \"options\": {\"dotNotation\": true}}`.\n\nThis setup is spot on. For `objectValue.prop1`, we're adding it as a `number` type with a `value` of `123`. And for `objectValue.prop2`, it's a `string` with the `value` 'someText'. The crucial part here is `options: {\"dotNotation\": true}`. This `dotNotation` option is absolutely key. Without it, the `Set` node would try to create properties literally named \"objectValue.prop1\" and \"objectValue.prop2\" at the top level. By enabling dot notation, it correctly interprets `objectValue.prop1` as creating a nested object called `objectValue` and then a property `prop1` inside it, and similarly for `prop2`. This perfectly fulfills the requirement of adding these new nested properties to each of the 10 customer records that came from the previous node. The \"Customer Datastore\" node would pass its retrieved items as input to this `Set` node, and the `Set` node would then process each of those items, adding the specified properties, and outputting the modified items." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, uses a DebugHelper node to generate 100 random data items with a seed of 0.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [780, 500]}, {\"parameters\": {\"category\": \"randomData\", \"randomDataSeed\": \"0\", \"randomDataCount\": 100}, \"name\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1000, 500]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start thinking about how to build this workflow. The request is quite specific: it needs to be manually triggered, and then use a `DebugHelper` node to generate a specific amount of random data with a fixed seed.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way to kick off the workflow when someone explicitly decides to run it. The prompt states \"manually triggered.\" Looking at the available nodes, the most straightforward and idiomatic choice for this in n8n is the \"Manual Trigger\" node. It's designed exactly for this purpose\u2014to initiate a workflow execution with a simple click.\n\nSo, I'd start by dragging out a **Manual Trigger** node.\n* Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`.\n* The `typeVersion` will be `1`, which is the current common version for this basic node.\n* For its parameters, since it's just a simple manual trigger, it doesn't really require any specific configuration. It just serves as the starting point. So, its `parameters` object would be empty, `{}`. This seems correct for `df260de7-6f28-4d07-b7b5-29588e27335b`.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"uses a DebugHelper node to generate 100 random data items with a seed of 0.\" This tells me exactly what the next node needs to be and what it needs to do. The `DebugHelper` node is specifically designed for testing, debugging, and, conveniently, generating various types of test data.\n\nSo, I'd add a **DebugHelper** node.\n* Its type will be `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper`.\n* The `typeVersion` is `1`.\n* Now, for its configuration, this is where I address the specifics of the data generation. The prompt requires \"100 random data items with a seed of 0.\"\n * The `DebugHelper` node has a `category` parameter. To generate random data, I'd set this to `randomData`. This tells the node its purpose for this execution.\n * Then, there are options specific to `randomData`. The prompt asks for a \"seed of 0.\" This is important for reproducibility, ensuring that if the workflow is run multiple times with the same seed, the generated random data will be identical. So, I'd set `randomDataSeed` to `0`. It's stored as a string, `\"0\"`, in the JSON, which is perfectly fine.\n * Finally, the request is for \"100 random data items.\" The `randomDataCount` parameter directly controls this. I'd set `randomDataCount` to `100`.\n\nThis `DebugHelper` node, with ID `9e9a0708-86dc-474f-a60e-4315e757c08e`, looks like it's configured exactly as needed.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The `Manual Trigger` needs to initiate the `DebugHelper` node. When the `Manual Trigger` is activated (by clicking \"Test workflow\" or manually executing it), it simply passes its execution flow (and potentially an empty item) to the next connected node. The `DebugHelper` node doesn't need any specific input data from the trigger to generate its own random data; it just needs to be *triggered* to execute.\n\nSo, I'd connect the `main` output of the \"When clicking 'Test workflow'\" (our `manualTrigger` node) to the `main` input of the \"DebugHelper\" node. This ensures that when the trigger fires, the `DebugHelper` node is immediately activated and performs its configured action of generating the random data. The `connections` block reflects this perfectly: `{\"When clicking \\\"Test workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"DebugHelper\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This sets up a direct flow from the trigger to the data generation." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers every week at 5 AM, queries all entries from a MySQL 'books' table, and appends the returned data to a Google Sheet with ID 'qwertz'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"triggerTimes\": {\"item\": [{\"hour\": 5, \"mode\": \"everyWeek\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Cron\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.cron\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [100, 420]}, {\"parameters\": {\"query\": \"SELECT * FROM books;\", \"operation\": \"executeQuery\"}, \"name\": \"MySQL - select\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.mySql\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [300, 420]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"sheetId\": \"qwertz\", \"operation\": \"append\", \"authentication\": \"oAuth2\"}, \"name\": \"Google Sheets - write\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 420]}], \"connections\": {\"Cron\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"MySQL - select\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"MySQL - select\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Sheets - write\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start building this n8n workflow. The goal is pretty clear: we need to set up a recurring schedule, fetch data from a MySQL database, and then dump that data into a Google Sheet.\n\nSo, the very first thing we need in any automated workflow is a trigger. How does this whole process begin? The prompt states it needs to trigger \"every week at 5 AM.\" For scheduled, time-based triggers like this, the most straightforward and reliable node in n8n is the **Cron** node. I'd pull that onto our canvas first, knowing it's going to be the starting point.\n\nLooking at its configuration, the `typeVersion` is 1. Inside its `parameters`, we see `triggerTimes`, with an item specifying `hour: 5` and `mode: \"everyWeek\"`. This is perfect and directly aligns with the requirement to run weekly at 5 AM. No complex CRON expressions needed here, just a simple configuration for recurring weekly execution at a specific hour. It's a clean way to ensure our workflow kicks off exactly when it's supposed to.\n\nNow that we have our workflow triggering weekly, what's the next step? The prompt says we need to \"query all entries from a MySQL 'books' table.\" This immediately tells me we need a node that can connect to and interact with a MySQL database. The **MySQL** node (specifically, \"MySQL - select\" in the JSON) is precisely what's needed for this task. I'd add this node and then connect the output of our \"Cron\" node to the input of this \"MySQL - select\" node. The connection here is simple: when the Cron node triggers, it simply activates the MySQL node to perform its operation.\n\nLet's configure this MySQL node. Its `typeVersion` is also 1. Under `parameters`, the `operation` is set to `\"executeQuery\"`, which makes sense because we're going to provide a raw SQL query. And indeed, the `query` field contains `\"SELECT * FROM books;\"`. This SQL statement is exactly what's required to retrieve all entries from the 'books' table, fulfilling that part of the prompt. For credentials, it's set up to use a pre-configured MySQL account, which is how n8n securely connects to the database without embedding sensitive details directly in the workflow itself. This ensures that the node has the necessary authentication to access the database.\n\nAlright, we've got the trigger, and we've successfully retrieved the data from MySQL. What's the final piece of the puzzle? The prompt states we need to \"append the returned data to a Google Sheet with ID 'qwertz'.\" This clearly indicates a need for a Google Sheets integration. So, the next logical node would be the **Google Sheets** node, identified as \"Google Sheets - write\" in the JSON. I'd connect the output of our \"MySQL - select\" node to the input of this \"Google Sheets - write\" node. This connection is crucial because the data that comes out of the MySQL node (the rows from the 'books' table) will be passed directly as input to the Google Sheets node, ready to be written.\n\nLet's look at the configuration for this Google Sheets node. Its `typeVersion` is 1. In its `parameters`, we see `sheetId: \"qwertz\"`, which directly matches the specified Google Sheet ID from the prompt. The `operation` is set to `\"append\"`, which is exactly what we want \u2013 we're not overwriting the sheet, but adding new rows to the end, which aligns perfectly with the requirement to \"append the returned data.\" For `authentication`, it's using `\"oAuth2\"`, which is a standard and secure way to authenticate with Google APIs. Similar to the MySQL node, it references a configured Google Sheets OAuth credential, keeping sensitive authentication details separate from the workflow definition itself. This ensures the node has the necessary permissions to write to the specified Google Sheet.\n\nAnd that completes the flow. We have a scheduled trigger, data retrieval from MySQL, and then the appending of that data to a Google Sheet. It's a straightforward sequence that directly addresses all parts of the user's request." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers on a GET webhook at `\/GetOnboardingHooks`, reads data from the \"Onboarding\" sheet in the \"Mega Database\" Google Sheet, and then responds with a JSON containing the \"ImportSettingsWebhookGet\" and \"ExportSettingsWebhookPost\" fields.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Set Up Import - GET\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"GetOnboardingHooks\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"documentId\": {\"__rl\": true, \"value\": \"1t6UxAyhrQazJ19qRcBj57xyFYcloO6gVQ2sbx_SD9mI\", \"mode\": \"list\", \"cachedResultName\": \"Mega Database\", \"cachedResultUrl\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/spreadsheets\/d\/1t6UxAyhrQazJ19qRcBj57xyFYcloO6gVQ2sbx_SD9mI\/edit?usp=drivesdk\"}, \"sheetName\": {\"__rl\": true, \"value\": 1422831539, \"mode\": \"list\", \"cachedResultName\": \"Onboarding\", \"cachedResultUrl\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/spreadsheets\/d\/1t6UxAyhrQazJ19qRcBj57xyFYcloO6gVQ2sbx_SD9mI\/edit#gid=1422831539\"}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Google Sheets\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets\", \"typeVersion\": 4.5, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"json\", \"responseBody\": \"={\\n \\\"ImportSettingsWebhookGet\\\": \\\"{{ $json.ImportSettingsWebhookGet }}\\\",\\n \\\"ExportSettingsWebhookPost\\\": \\\"{{ $json.ExportSettingsWebhookPost }}\\\"\\n} \", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Sheets\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Sheets\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's design this workflow step by step.\n\nThe very first thing I need to figure out is how this workflow is going to *start*. The prompt clearly states it \"triggers on a GET webhook at `\/GetOnboardingHooks`.\" So, the most logical initial node is going to be a Webhook node. This node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, typeVersion: `2`) is perfect for listening for incoming HTTP requests. I'd add this right at the beginning of the workflow canvas, say, at position `[0, 0]`.\n\nFor the Webhook node, I need to configure its path. The prompt specifies `\/GetOnboardingHooks`, so I'll set the `path` parameter to \"GetOnboardingHooks\". As for how it responds, the requirement is to respond *after* processing data, not immediately. So, the `responseMode` parameter needs to be set to \"responseNode\", which means a separate node will handle the actual HTTP response later in the workflow. This is crucial for allowing the Google Sheet operation to complete before sending a reply back to the caller.\n\nNext, after the workflow is triggered by the webhook, what's the immediate action? The prompt says it \"reads data from the 'Onboarding' sheet in the 'Mega Database' Google Sheet.\" This immediately tells me I need a Google Sheets node. This node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets`, typeVersion: `4.5`) is purpose-built for interacting with Google Sheets, whether it's reading, writing, or updating data. I'd place this node right after the Webhook, probably at `[220, 0]` to keep a clean horizontal flow.\n\nNow, configuring this Google Sheets node. It needs to know *which* spreadsheet and *which* sheet within that spreadsheet to target. For the `documentId`, I'd expect to configure a specific Google Sheet ID, which would correspond to the \"Mega Database.\" I'd likely use the \"list\" mode for this, selecting from available spreadsheets linked to the credentials, or pasting the ID directly. Similarly, for the `sheetName`, it needs to be set to \"Onboarding\". The specific ID for that sheet (like `1422831539`) would be populated here. Crucially, this node would also require credentials to access Google Sheets, which would be linked here, likely a Google Sheets OAuth2 API credential. The exact operation isn't explicitly stated but \"reading data\" implies a \"Get Many\" or \"Get All Rows\" operation implicitly, as we're expecting specific fields back.\n\nFinally, after reading the data from the Google Sheet, the workflow needs to \"respond with a JSON containing the 'ImportSettingsWebhookGet' and 'ExportSettingsWebhookPost' fields.\" This means the final step will be a \"Respond to Webhook\" node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, typeVersion: `1.1`). This node's sole purpose is to send an HTTP response back to the client that initiated the webhook. I'll place it after the Google Sheets node, at `[440, 0]`.\n\nFor the \"Respond to Webhook\" node, the `respondWith` parameter must be set to \"json\" because the requirement is to send a JSON response. The critical part here is the `responseBody`. This is where I'll construct the JSON payload using expressions. The prompt specifies two fields: \"ImportSettingsWebhookGet\" and \"ExportSettingsWebhookPost\". Assuming the Google Sheets node outputs these fields directly from its data, I can use an expression like:\n```json\n={\n \"ImportSettingsWebhookGet\": \"{{ $json.ImportSettingsWebhookGet }}\",\n \"ExportSettingsWebhookPost\": \"{{ $json.ExportSettingsWebhookPost }}\"\n}\n```\nThis tells n8n to take the values of `ImportSettingsWebhookGet` and `ExportSettingsWebhookPost` from the incoming JSON data (which would be the output of the Google Sheets node) and embed them into the outgoing JSON response.\n\nConnecting these nodes is straightforward. The \"Webhook\" node's main output should connect to the \"Google Sheets\" node's main input. Then, the \"Google Sheets\" node's main output, which contains the data read from the sheet, connects to the \"Respond to Webhook\" node's main input. This ensures the data flows sequentially: trigger, data retrieval, and then response. This structure aligns perfectly with the problem statement." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, then connects to a \"Set\" node named \"Edit Fields,\" which subsequently connects to another \"Set\" node named \"Edit Fields1.\" Include two additional unconnected placeholder nodes with unknown types.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [280, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Unknown node 1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [400, 500]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Unknown node 2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 500]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.2, \"position\": [500, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.2, \"position\": [720, 320]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Edit Fields\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow designed. The prompt asks for a workflow starting with a manual trigger, leading into two \"Set\" nodes, and then two additional unconnected placeholder nodes.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. Looking at the prompt, it explicitly mentions a \"manual trigger.\" So, the most straightforward choice for this is the `manualTrigger` node. This node, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`, is perfect because it allows someone to manually initiate the workflow execution, which is exactly what \"starts with a manual trigger\" implies. I'll place this as the very first node in our workflow. It's named \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" which is pretty standard for this type of node, clearly indicating its purpose. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters beyond its basic existence; it's just there to be clicked.\n\nNext, the prompt says the manual trigger \"then connects to a 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields'\". So, after our trigger, the natural progression is to add a `Set` node. The `Set` node, type `n8n-nodes-base.set`, is incredibly useful for manipulating data as it flows through the workflow. It allows you to add, remove, or modify fields on the incoming items. Given the name \"Edit Fields,\" it's clear its purpose is to perform some kind of data transformation. I'll use `typeVersion: 3.2` as specified in the provided JSON, which is a common and stable version for this node. I'll connect the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node's primary output to the input of this new \"Edit Fields\" node. This means any data (even if it's just an empty item from the manual trigger) will pass directly into this \"Set\" node for processing. Its `parameters` object is empty right now, `options: {}`, indicating that no specific fields are being set or removed at this moment, but it's ready for configuration if we needed to add, for example, a new field called `status` or modify an existing `value` field.\n\nFollowing on from that, the prompt specifies that \"Edit Fields\" \"subsequently connects to another 'Set' node named 'Edit Fields1'\". So, it's a very similar step. We need another `Set` node. Again, it'll be `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.2`. Naming it \"Edit Fields1\" implies it might be performing further data manipulation, perhaps building upon or refining the changes made by the first \"Edit Fields\" node, or maybe handling a different set of fields entirely. I'll connect the output of our first \"Edit Fields\" node to the input of this new \"Edit Fields1\" node. This ensures a linear flow: trigger, then first data transformation, then second data transformation. Just like the previous `Set` node, its `parameters` show `options: {}`, meaning no specific data manipulation is configured yet, but the structure is there.\n\nFinally, the prompt also asks to \"Include two additional unconnected placeholder nodes with unknown types.\" This is interesting; it means they don't perform any function in the primary data flow, but they are part of the workflow's structure. The JSON provides names like \"Unknown node 1\" and \"Unknown node 2\" with very specific, non-standard types: `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExist` and `n8n-nodes-base.thisNodeDoesntExistEither`, both with `typeVersion: 1`. These are clearly placeholders, designed to exist in the workflow canvas without being part of the execution path. They aren't connected to anything, just present, perhaps for future expansion, or to visually mark a spot where a more complex integration might go later. I'll simply add them to the canvas, making sure they have no incoming or outgoing connections. Their parameters are empty, as expected for placeholder nodes. Their names and types perfectly match the request for \"unconnected placeholder nodes with unknown types.\" They're just sitting there, waiting for a future purpose.\n\nAnd that completes the structure as described. We have our manual trigger, the two connected Set nodes for data manipulation, and the two standalone placeholder nodes. The connections are all `main` type, meaning the primary flow of data items goes from one node to the next in sequence." } { "prompt": "Create a single Airtable node.

The request is pretty specific: a single Airtable node, configured to accept URLs for its base and table, and those fields should start empty.\n\nSo, the very first thing that comes to mind is, naturally, an Airtable node. That's the core component we need to interact with Airtable. I'd go ahead and drag that onto the canvas. Looking at the JSON, it's specified as `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.airtable\"`, which is exactly what I'd pick. It's also `typeVersion: 1`, which is the standard current version for this node. I'll place it roughly at `[380, 180]` on the canvas, just a good central spot. Its default name, \"Airtable,\" is perfectly fine for this task.\n\nNow, let's dive into the configuration, because that's where the real magic needs to happen to meet the user's requirements.\n\nThe prompt states: \"Configure its 'Application' and 'Table' fields to accept Airtable base and table URLs respectively, but leave them initially empty.\"\n\nI'll open the parameters for this Airtable node.\n\nFirst, let's tackle the 'Application' field. In n8n, \"Application\" typically refers to the Airtable base. The JSON shows `application: { \"__rl\": true, \"mode\": \"url\", \"value\": \"\", \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\" }`.\n* The `mode: \"url\"` is absolutely critical here. By default, n8n might try to list available bases if you have credentials configured. But the request explicitly says \"accept Airtable base... URLs.\" Setting the mode to `url` tells the node to expect a direct URL input for the base, rather than a selection from a dropdown. This is exactly what we need.\n* The `value: \"\"` is also spot on. The prompt says \"leave them initially empty,\" so an empty string for the value ensures that.\n* The `__rl: true` property indicates that this field can be set dynamically at runtime, perhaps by an expression or data from a previous node. While not explicitly asked for, it's a common and useful setting for URL fields that might be populated by other parts of the workflow.\n* And the `__regex` part? That's n8n's internal validation. It ensures that whatever URL is eventually entered into this field actually matches the pattern of an Airtable base URL, which is a really helpful guardrail to prevent malformed inputs.\n\nNext, I'll move to the 'Table' field. This is similar to 'Application' but for the specific table within the base. The JSON for this is `table: { \"__rl\": true, \"mode\": \"url\", \"value\": \"\", \"__regex\": \"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\" }`.\n* Again, `mode: \"url\"` is the key. Just like the base, we want to specify the table via its URL, not select it from a list. This directly addresses the requirement to \"accept Airtable... table URLs.\"\n* And, true to the prompt, `value: \"\"` means it's left empty initially.\n* `__rl: true` again indicates dynamic capability, which is good practice.\n* The `__regex` here is a different pattern, specifically designed to validate Airtable table URLs, which include both the base and the table ID in the path.\n\nSince the prompt asked for \"a single Airtable node\" and its configuration, and the workflow JSON only contains this one node with no connections specified (`\"connections\": {}`), that means our job is complete. There's no need for a trigger node or any subsequent processing nodes, as the goal was just to set up this specific node. This makes sense; it's a setup task, not a full operational workflow. It's simply an Airtable node ready to receive a base URL and a table URL when the workflow runs, or when a user inputs them into the node's settings." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Error trigger\" that uses an \"Error Trigger\" node to send a Telegram message.

The goal is pretty clear: when an error happens somewhere else in n8n, we want to be notified on Telegram with key details.\n\nFirst, I need to think about what initiates this workflow. The prompt specifically mentions \"Error Trigger\" and that's exactly what its name suggests. So, the very first node I'd reach for is an `Error Trigger` node. This node is designed to *listen* for errors that occur in any other active workflows on the n8n instance. It's the perfect starting point for an error notification system.\n\nSo, I'm placing an `Error Trigger` node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.errorTrigger`, typeVersion: `1`). Looking at the JSON, this node doesn't seem to need any specific parameters configured directly on it, which makes sense. Its purpose is simply to activate when an error event occurs, and then it provides data about that error. It's like a specialized listener. I wouldn't expect a different typeVersion to fundamentally change its core \"listen for errors\" behavior, though minor data format or trigger condition adjustments might occur in theory.\n\nNow that I have the trigger, what's the desired action? We need to send a Telegram message. This immediately points me to the `Telegram` node. It's the dedicated node for interacting with the Telegram API to send messages.\n\nSo, I'm adding a `Telegram` node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.telegram`, typeVersion: `1.2`). This node will be connected directly to the `Error Trigger` node. The `Error Trigger` will output information about the error, and that data needs to flow into the `Telegram` node so it can construct the message. So, a simple \"main\" connection from `Error Trigger` to `Telegram` is what I'll set up.\n\nNow for the `Telegram` node's configuration.\nThe prompt specifies a `chatId` of \"5346776407\". This is a straightforward parameter to set in the node. I'll put that value directly into the `chatId` field.\n\nNext, the message content. The prompt requires the error's message and the last executed node. This means I'll need to use expressions to pull that dynamic data from the input that the `Error Trigger` node provides. The JSON shows exactly what I'd expect here for the `text` parameter:\n`=Error: {{ $json.execution.error.message }}\\n\\nUltimo nodo ejecutado: {{ $json.execution.lastNodeExecuted }}`.\nThis expression is perfect. `$json` refers to the data coming into the Telegram node. The `Error Trigger` node provides information about the error under the `execution` key. So, `$json.execution.error.message` will give me the specific error message, and `$json.execution.lastNodeExecuted` will provide the name of the node where the error happened. The `\\n\\n` is a nice touch for formatting, adding a line break to make the message more readable on Telegram.\n\nThen, there's the credential. The prompt states \"via a \"Telegram account\" credential.\" In the `Telegram` node's configuration, I'd link it to an existing `Telegram account` credential. I don't need to worry about the specifics of the credential itself, just that the node uses it for authentication with the Telegram API.\n\nFinally, I see `additionalFields: {\"appendAttribution\": false}`. This is a common setting for the Telegram node, usually preventing it from adding a \"Sent via n8n\" footer to the message. It's a clean way to keep the message focused on the error details without extra branding.\n\nAnd that's it. The `Error Trigger` catches the error, pipes the details to the `Telegram` node, which then formats and sends the message using the configured chat ID and credentials. The workflow's name \"Error trigger\" is also fitting for its purpose.

The goal is to set up an automation for an \"Invoice System\", starting with a webhook, calling out to a Python API, and then responding.

I see the name is \"Invoice System Automation Workflow\", which is great, very descriptive. I also need to ensure it's inactive from the start, so I'll set the `active` flag to `false`. And of course, the user prompt specified a tag, `# python`, which is handy for organization and filtering later, so I'll add that to the `tags` array.\n\nNow, onto the actual workflow logic. The prompt clearly states it needs to start with a POST webhook. For that, the most suitable node is undoubtedly the `Webhook` node.\nI'll add a `Webhook` node (its type is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`, and in this case, `typeVersion` is 2). This node will be our entry point.\nFor its configuration, I'll set the `httpMethod` to `POST` as requested. The specific path for this webhook is `\/invoice-process`, so I'll put that in the `path` parameter.\nCrucially, since we need to do more processing *after* the webhook is received but *before* responding, I'll set the `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells n8n not to immediately respond to the incoming webhook but to wait for a subsequent `Respond to Webhook` node to handle the final response.\n\nNext, after the webhook receives the data, the core logic is to make an HTTP POST request to a Python API. This immediately tells me I need an `HTTP Request` node.\nSo, I'll drag and drop an `HTTP Request` node onto the canvas. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`, and here we're using `typeVersion` 4.2.\nI'll connect the `Webhook` node's \"main\" output to this `HTTP Request` node's \"main\" input, so the data received by the webhook can be passed along.\nNow for its configuration:\nThe `method` needs to be `POST`, as specified. The target `url` is `http:\/\/python-api:8000\/process-invoice`, so I'll plug that in.\nThe prompt mentions sending `multipart-form-data`, which is very important. So, I'll set the `sendBody` option to `true` and specifically choose `multipart-form-data` for the `contentType`.\nThen, I need to define the `bodyParameters`. The prompt lists three: `invoice_file`, `goods_file`, and `min_score`.\nFor `invoice_file` and `goods_file`, these are specified as binary files. So, within the `bodyParameters` array, I'll add two entries, setting their `parameterType` to `formBinaryData`. For each, I'll set the `name` to `invoice_file` and `goods_file` respectively. The `inputDataFieldName` for both will also be `invoice_file` and `goods_file`. This means the `HTTP Request` node will look for incoming binary data in fields named 'invoice_file' and 'goods_file' that were passed from the previous node (our Webhook).\nFor `min_score`, this is a regular parameter, so I'll just add it as a basic parameter type, giving it the `name` \"min_score\". Its actual value would typically come from an expression or be hardcoded, perhaps derived from the initial webhook data.\nFinally, the Python API is expected to return a text response, so under `options`, within the `response` sub-option, I'll specify `responseFormat` as `text`. This ensures n8n correctly interprets the API's reply.\n\nAfter the `HTTP Request` node successfully calls the Python API and gets its response, we need to send that back to the original caller of our webhook. This is where the `Respond to Webhook` node comes in.\nI'll add a `Respond to Webhook` node (its type is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook`, `typeVersion` 1.1).\nI'll connect the \"main\" output of the `HTTP Request` node to the \"main\" input of this `Respond to Webhook` node. This way, whatever the Python API returned will become the data that the `Respond to Webhook` node sends back.\nThe `options` for this node are empty, which is fine; it will default to sending the output of the preceding node, which is exactly what we want \u2013 the text response from our Python API call.\n\nAnd that completes the design for this \"Invoice System Automation Workflow\"." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile Send connection requests in LinkedIn\" that triggers via a webhook at `onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/SendConnectionRequestsInLinkedIn`, fetches content from the Google Doc `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1v28EQHoW4j0S2w8ylpLmd2-HCUefInnDP0pEXn6Pi7o\/edit?tab=t.0`, and responds to the webhook with the retrieved document content.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFile Send connection requests in LinkedIn\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/SendConnectionRequestsInLinkedIn\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1v28EQHoW4j0S2w8ylpLmd2-HCUefInnDP0pEXn6Pi7o\/edit?tab=t.0\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed from the ground up, thinking through each step.\n\nThe very first thing we need for this workflow, as per the request, is a way to trigger it. The prompt specifies it should trigger via a webhook. So, naturally, the first node I'd place on my canvas would be a **Webhook** node.\n\nI'd pick the `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` type. The current `typeVersion` is `2`, which I'd go with. This node is perfect for receiving incoming HTTP requests, acting as our entry point.\n\nOnce I've got the Webhook node, I need to configure it. The prompt states the webhook path should be `onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/SendConnectionRequestsInLinkedIn`. So, I'd set that path in the Webhook node's parameters. This ensures the workflow only triggers when a request hits that specific URL.\n\nCrucially, the prompt also says the workflow should *respond* to the webhook with the retrieved document content. This means the Webhook node itself shouldn't send the response immediately. Instead, another node later in the workflow will handle the response. To achieve this, I'd set the `responseMode` parameter of the Webhook node to `responseNode`. This tells n8n to hold off on responding until an explicit \"Respond to Webhook\" node is encountered later in the flow.\n\nNext up, the core task after receiving the webhook is to fetch content from a Google Doc. This clearly points to needing a Google Docs integration. So, I'd pull in a **Google Docs** node.\n\nI'd choose the `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` type, again going with `typeVersion` `2`. This node is specifically designed to interact with Google Docs, making it the most suitable choice for retrieving document content.\n\nI'd connect the Webhook node's main output to the Google Docs node's main input. This ensures that once the webhook is triggered, the execution flow passes directly to the Google Docs node to perform its operation.\n\nFor the Google Docs node's configuration, the prompt specifies fetching content. So, I'd set the `operation` parameter to `get`. This tells the node we want to retrieve information about or from a document. The workflow also needs to know which document to fetch. So, I would configure the `documentURL` parameter with the specific Google Doc URL provided in the prompt. This field would hold the unique identifier for the document we're interested in. Of course, to access a Google Doc, the node would also require proper authentication, so a Google Docs OAuth2 API credential would need to be configured and linked here, allowing the workflow to securely access the document.\n\nFinally, after fetching the content, the prompt requires us to respond to the initial webhook with that retrieved content. This immediately tells me I need a **Respond to Webhook** node.\n\nI'd select the `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` type, and it's `typeVersion` `1.1`. This node is designed precisely for sending a response back to the waiting webhook, which we set up with `responseMode: responseNode` earlier.\n\nI'd connect the Google Docs node's main output to the Respond to Webhook node's main input. This means that after the Google Docs node successfully fetches the document content, that content will be passed along to the Respond to Webhook node.\n\nNow, for configuring the Respond to Webhook node. The prompt asks for the retrieved document content to be sent back. The Google Docs node, when performing a `get` operation, typically outputs the document's content in a field, often named `content`. So, I would set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`, as we're sending back the document's text content. Then, for the `responseBody`, I'd use an expression to dynamically pull that content: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression accesses the `content` field from the data that the Google Docs node passed to it, ensuring that the fetched document's body is what's sent back as the webhook response.\n\nAnd that completes the flow! We have our trigger, the data fetching step, and the response step, all connected and configured as required." } { "prompt": "Create a Customer.io workflow.

Then, the crucial second step is to take *that same customer* and add them to a Customer.io segment.\n\nSo, how do we start? Every workflow needs a trigger, something to kick it off.\n\n***\n\n**Node 1: Trigger**\n\n* **Thought Process:** We need a way to manually initiate this process for testing or on-demand execution. A simple \"start\" button is ideal.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1` (This is typically the current stable version, and unless there's a specific feature or bug fix needed in another, this is the default choice.)\n* **Why this node:** It's the most straightforward way to run a workflow on demand. It literally just has a button to click.\n* **Configuration:** It requires no specific configuration beyond its default state. Its purpose is simply to start the flow of execution.\n* **Connection:** Once triggered, its output will flow to the first actual Customer.io operation.\n\n***\n\n**Node 2: Create\/Update Customer in Customer.io**\n\n* **Thought Process:** The first core task is to \"create or update a customer with the ID '2' and assign a custom property 'Name' with the value 'n8n'\". This explicitly points to Customer.io and managing customer data.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.customerIo`\n* **Type Version:** `1` (Again, standard practice unless specific version features are required.)\n* **Why this node:** This is the dedicated n8n node for interacting with the Customer.io API. It allows us to perform various operations related to customers, events, and segments.\n* **Configuration:**\n * The prompt specifically mentions managing a *customer*, so the resource selected within this node would be 'customer'. While the JSON doesn't explicitly show `resource: \"customer\"`, it's the implied default when configuring an 'identify' or 'track customer' operation.\n * **ID:** The prompt gives us a specific ID: '2'. So, we'd set the 'ID' parameter to \"2\". This is crucial for identifying or creating the correct customer.\n * **Custom Property:** The prompt asks to \"assign a custom property 'Name' with the value 'n8n'\". This maps directly to the 'Custom Properties' option within the Customer.io node. We'd add a new custom property entry, setting its 'Key' to \"Name\" and its 'Value' to \"n8n\". This ensures the customer record has this specific piece of information attached.\n * **Credentials:** This node needs to authenticate with Customer.io. We'd select or configure the necessary Customer.io API credentials here, represented generically as \"cust\" in the JSON.\n* **Connection:** This node is directly connected from the `manualTrigger`. The output of this node will be the updated or newly created customer's information, including their ID, which is absolutely vital for the *next* step.\n\n***\n\n**Node 3: Add Customer to Segment in Customer.io**\n\n* **Thought Process:** Now for the second part: \"add this newly created customer to a Customer.io segment.\" This is still interacting with Customer.io, but specifically with segments. And critically, it needs the ID of the customer we just processed.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.customerIo`\n* **Type Version:** `1` (Consistency in type versions helps maintain predictable behavior.)\n* **Why this node:** We're still working with Customer.io, but this time specifically targeting a 'segment' operation. The `customerIo` node is versatile enough to handle various Customer.io resources.\n* **Configuration:**\n * **Resource:** The prompt explicitly mentions \"segment,\" so we would set the 'Resource' parameter within this node to \"segment\".\n * **Customer IDs:** This is where the magic of chaining nodes comes in. The prompt says \"add *this newly created customer*\". This means we need to dynamically get the ID from the output of the *previous* Customer.io node (the one named \"CustomerIo\" in the JSON). We'd use an expression like `={{$node[\"CustomerIo\"].json[\"id\"]}}`. This expression tells n8n to look at the JSON output of the node named \"CustomerIo\" and extract the value of the \"id\" field. This ensures we're targeting the *exact* customer we just created or updated.\n * **Credentials:** Just like the previous Customer.io node, this one also needs to authenticate. It makes sense to reuse the same Customer.io API credentials, \"cust\", for consistency and access to the same Customer.io account.\n* **Connection:** This node is connected directly from the first `CustomerIo` node. The data flow here is critical: the first Customer.io node performs its action and passes its results (including the customer ID) to this second Customer.io node, which then uses that ID to add the customer to the segment. This ensures the operations happen in the correct sequence and with the correct customer." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named 'Test workflow 2'.

The user wants an inactive workflow named 'Test workflow 2' that begins with a manual trigger, flows into a Code node to add a specific field, and has a couple of tags.\n\nFirst things first, I need to define the high-level properties of the workflow itself. It needs to be named \"Test workflow 2\", which is straightforward enough. The prompt also specifies that it should be \"inactive\" initially. So, when I'm setting up the workflow's main configuration, I'll make sure to set its `active` status to `false`. This means it won't run automatically or be triggered unless someone explicitly activates it and executes it.\n\nThen, there are the tags. The user requested 'other-tag-1' and 'other-tag-2'. So, I'll add those to the workflow's `tags` property. This is great for organization and filtering later on.\n\nNow, let's get into the nodes that will actually perform the work. The prompt clearly states it should \"start with a manual trigger\". This immediately tells me my first node will be a `manualTrigger` node. Looking at the JSON, it's indeed an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node type is perfect because it allows a user to manually initiate the workflow execution from the n8n interface, which is exactly what \"manual trigger\" implies. It's a simple, user-driven starting point for many workflows. Its name in the JSON is \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is the default for this node and perfectly describes its function. It doesn't really need any special parameters configured; its purpose is simply to kick off the workflow.\n\nNext, the prompt says this manual trigger \"connects to a Code node, which adds a `myNewField` with a value of `1` to every input item\". This tells me my second node will be a `code` node. Checking the JSON, it's an `n8n-nodes-base.code` node, `typeVersion: 1`, and named \"Code\". A Code node is incredibly versatile and is the go-to choice when you need to perform custom data manipulation, apply complex logic, or interact with data in ways that dedicated nodes might not directly support. In this case, we need to add a new field to every item, which is a perfect use case for custom JavaScript.\n\nSo, for the Code node, the most important part is its `jsCode` parameter. The goal is to add `myNewField` with a value of `1` to *every input item*. This means I need to iterate over all items that come into this node. The code provided in the JSON does exactly that:\n`for (const item of $input.all()) { item.json.myNewField = 1; }`\nThis loop iterates through each item available from the previous node (the manual trigger, which by default outputs one empty item, or more if manually added) and then accesses the `json` property of each `item`. It then directly assigns the value `1` to a new property called `myNewField` within that `json` object.\n\nAfter modifying all the items, the Code node needs to return them so they can be passed to subsequent nodes (if there were any). The line `return $input.all();` ensures that all the modified items are returned as the output of this Code node. This is crucial for the data to flow correctly through the workflow.\n\nFinally, I need to make sure these two nodes are connected as specified: the manual trigger connects to the Code node. Looking at the `connections` part of the JSON, it clearly shows `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This means the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node (our manual trigger) is connected to the `main` input of the \"Code\" node. This is a standard connection, simply passing the data (in this case, the item or items initiated by the manual trigger) from one node to the next.\n\nThat seems to cover all the requirements and details from the JSON. The workflow is inactive, named correctly, tagged, starts with a manual trigger, and correctly processes data with a Code node to add the specified field." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow starting with a POST webhook trigger (e.g., path `23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201`) that connects to a Set node.

The prompt explicitly states \"starting with a POST webhook trigger\". This immediately tells me that our inaugural node, the one that kicks everything off, has to be a Webhook node. There's really no other choice if we want to receive an HTTP POST request to begin the process.\n\nLet's place that **Webhook** node. Its type, as per standard n8n nodes, will be `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. We'll set it up right at the beginning of our canvas, maybe around `[460, 460]` in terms of position, just for visual layout.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Webhook? The prompt gives us specifics. It needs to be a `POST` request, so I'll set its `httpMethod` parameter to `POST`. And crucially, it provides a specific path: `23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201`. This path needs to be configured in the `path` parameter of the node. This ensures that when an external system sends a POST request to our n8n instance at `your-n8n-url\/webhook\/23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201`, this particular workflow will be triggered. The `webhookId` parameter will automatically be set to the same value as the path for internal n8n reference.\n\nThe prompt also specifies test data for the webhook: a JSON body `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`. While this isn't a *configuration* of the node itself, it's vital for understanding what data the node is expected to receive and process. When we talk about `pinData` in the workflow JSON, that's precisely where this test input is captured. It shows that the `body` field of the incoming request will contain `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`, along with standard headers, params, and query parameters that might be present in a real HTTP request. This `pinData` is how n8n records and allows us to replay test executions.\n\nOkay, so we have our trigger set up and ready to receive data. What's next? The prompt states \"that connects to a Set node.\" This is straightforward. After the Webhook successfully receives data, we want to pass that data on for further processing or inspection. A **Set** node is a perfect candidate for this.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Set** node, perhaps positioned to the right of our Webhook, maybe at `[720, 460]`. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion` is `1`. For the `typeVersion`, generally, a higher version might introduce new features or change how existing parameters behave, but for `v1`, it's quite stable and commonly used.\n\nNow, how do we configure this Set node? Looking at the requirements, it's simply receiving data. The JSON shows its `parameters` as `{\"options\": {}}`. This means we're not actually adding, modifying, or removing any fields within the Set node itself. It's essentially acting as a pass-through here, or perhaps a point where we *could* later add new static values or expressions based on the incoming data, if the workflow needed it. For this specific prompt, its purpose is to show that the data successfully flowed from the Webhook.\n\nFinally, we need to connect these two nodes. The data flow dictates that the output of the Webhook node should become the input of the Set node. In n8n, the standard connection for passing item data is via the \"main\" output and \"main\" input. So, I'd draw a connection from the `main` output of our **Webhook** node to the `main` input of the **Set** node. This means that whatever data the Webhook receives\u2014in our test case, that JSON body `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`\u2014will be passed directly as input to the Set node, making it available for subsequent operations.

We also have some naming and tagging requirements.\n\nSo, the very first thing we'll need is a way to *receive* the trigger. In n8n, that almost always means starting with a **Webhook** node. This makes perfect sense because the prompt explicitly states the workflow should be \"triggered by a webhook at `\/ai-tools-in-remote-helpers-overview`\".\n\nSo, I'd drag out a **Webhook** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and looking at the provided JSON, it's `typeVersion: 2`. This node is designed specifically for incoming HTTP requests, which is exactly what a webhook is.\nNow, for its configuration, we need to set the `path`. The prompt specifies `\/ai-tools-in-remote-helpers-overview`, so I'd configure the `path` parameter to `ai-tools-in-remote-helpers-overview`. This ensures that when a request hits the n8n instance at that specific endpoint, our workflow gets activated.\nAnother crucial parameter for this node, given the requirement to return content as the webhook's response, is `responseMode`. We definitely want to set this to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node, \"Don't send an immediate default response. Instead, wait for a subsequent node in the workflow to explicitly send the response.\" This is exactly what we'll need later when we have the Google Doc content.\n\nOnce the webhook triggers, the next logical step is to go and get the content from the Google Doc. So, from the Webhook node's output, I'd connect to a new node that can interact with Google Docs. n8n has a dedicated **Google Docs** node, which is perfect for this task.\n\nSo, the next node would be the **Google Docs** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs`, and the `typeVersion` specified is `2`. This node is specifically designed to perform operations like reading, writing, or listing Google Docs.\nWithin this node, the most important parameter to configure is the `operation`. We need to *fetch* content, so the `operation` parameter should be set to `get`. This tells the node we want to retrieve a document.\nThen, we need to tell it *which* document to get. The prompt provides a specific URL: `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/13wjLylRLRCpRh_cK9-H_CJmKozvvzhzRGDmRJnQ8B6E\/edit`. So, I'd configure the `documentURL` parameter with that. Of course, in a real scenario, this node would also need appropriate credentials configured, like a Google Docs account, to access the document. I'd make sure an OAuth2 credential for Google Docs is set up and selected.\n\nNow, we've received the webhook, and we've successfully fetched the Google Doc content. The final step, as per the requirement, is to return this content as the webhook's response. This brings us back to that `responseMode: responseNode` setting on our initial Webhook node. We need a node that can take the data from our Google Docs node and send it back to the original webhook caller.\n\nFor this, n8n has the **Respond to Webhook** node. I'd connect the output of the Google Docs node to this **Respond to Webhook** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and the `typeVersion` is `1.1`. This node is explicitly designed to fulfill the response requirement of a Webhook node configured with `responseMode: responseNode`.\nWithin this node, we need to decide *what* to respond with and *how*. The prompt implies returning the document's content, which is typically text. So, I would set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`.\nThen, for the actual `responseBody`, we need to dynamically pull the content that the Google Docs node retrieved. Based on how Google Docs nodes typically output data, the content is often found in a field like `content`. So, I'd use an expression here: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression instructs the node to take the `content` property from the JSON data passed to it from the previous node (our Google Docs node) and use that as the response body. This makes sure the actual document text is returned.\n\nFinally, while not directly part of the node structure, the workflow needs a name and tags. The prompt states to name the workflow `GetOnboardingFile-ai-tools-in-remote-helpers-overview`, and to include tags like `Onboarding` and `Files`. These would be configured in the workflow's general settings after building the node flow.

It flows logically from trigger to data retrieval, and then to responding with that data." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named \"Line:Notification:send\" that starts and sends a Line notification.

The goal is to create a workflow that can send a Line notification, including a dynamic timestamp in the message, and it needs to be set up but inactive for now.\n\nFirst things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, something to kick it off. Looking at the requirements, it's a general notification workflow, so a simple \"Start\" node is perfect here. It doesn't need to be triggered by a specific event like a webhook or a schedule; it can be manually executed or called by another workflow. So, I'll drag and drop a **Start** node onto the canvas. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.start` and `typeVersion` will be `1`. This node is foundational; it just signifies the beginning of the workflow execution flow. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters in this case, which is reflected by its empty `parameters` object.\n\nNext, the core functionality of this workflow is to send a Line notification. For that, I'll need a node that can interact with the Line API. The most suitable node for this purpose is the **Line** node. I'll place that right after the Start node, establishing the flow. So, the `type` for this node will be `n8n-nodes-base.line` and its `typeVersion` will be `1`. I'll draw a connection from the \"main\" output of the **Start** node to the \"main\" input of the newly added **Line** node. This ensures that once the workflow starts, control passes directly to the Line notification action.\n\nNow, let's configure this **Line** node. The prompt specifies two key things: the message content and the credentials.\n\nFor the message, the requirement is \"Notification{{Date.now()}}\". This clearly indicates that the message needs to be dynamic and include the current timestamp. So, within the **Line** node's parameters, I'll locate the \"Message\" field. Instead of typing a static message, I'll make sure to use an expression. The value `\"=Notification{{Date.now()}}\"` confirms this. The `Date.now()` part is a JavaScript expression that will evaluate to the current timestamp when the workflow runs, ensuring the message is always up-to-date. This is a common and very powerful feature in n8n \u2013 the ability to embed expressions directly into fields. This approach avoids the need for a separate \"Function\" node just to construct the message, keeping the workflow cleaner.\n\nThen, there are the credentials. The prompt explicitly states to use \"Line Notify OAuth2 API\" credentials with a specific ID, \"99\". When configuring the **Line** node, there's a section for credentials. I would select the \"Line Notify OAuth2 API\" option from the dropdown, and then, from the list of saved credentials, I would pick the one identified as \"99\". This links the node to the pre-configured authentication details needed to send messages to Line. It's crucial for the node to be able to authenticate with the Line service. The `credentials` object in the JSON clearly shows this linkage, mapping the `lineNotifyOAuth2Api` key to an object containing the `id` \"99\" and `name` \"Line Notify OAuth2 API\".\n\nFinally, I need to ensure the overall workflow settings match the prompt. The workflow needs to be named \"Line:Notification:send\" and, importantly, it must be inactive. So, I'll set the workflow's name accordingly and toggle its active status to `false`. This means it won't automatically run or consume resources until it's manually activated.\n\nThat covers all the requirements and the structure provided in the JSON. The workflow is simple: start, send a dynamic Line message, and then it's done." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow with a single 'Airtable' node located at position [380, 180].

The prompt is quite specific: it needs to be a workflow with just one node, and that node has to be an 'Airtable' node. The location is given as `[380, 180]`. Beyond that, there are some very particular configurations for its parameters, specifically 'application' and 'table', which need to be URL fields, empty, and use exact regex patterns.\n\nSo, the very first thing I'd do is add the core component. Since the goal is to interact with Airtable, an **Airtable node** is the obvious and only choice for this particular workflow. I'd drag it onto the canvas. Looking at the provided JSON, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.airtable` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. So, I'll go with that exact node. The `n8n-nodes-base` prefix indicates it's one of the standard, built-in nodes, which is good for reliability. I'd then make sure to place it precisely at the requested coordinates, `[380, 180]`, which is often a good starting point for a simple workflow, keeping it relatively central.\n\nNow, with the node placed, I need to dive into its configuration, specifically the 'application' and 'table' parameters. These are critical for connecting to the correct Airtable base and table.\n\nFirst, let's tackle the 'application' parameter. The prompt specifies it needs to be a \"URL field with empty values\" and have a specific regex. Looking at the JSON, for `application`, I see `mode: \"url\"`. This means I'd switch the input method for this field from a simple text input to a URL field. This is quite handy because often, users find it easier to copy and paste a direct URL rather than hunting down a specific ID. The `value: \"\"` confirms it should remain empty initially, serving as a placeholder for the user to input their base URL when they use the workflow.\n\nThe most interesting part here is the `__regex` property: `\"https:\/\/airtable.com\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. This is crucial for validation. By setting this regular expression, I'm ensuring that whatever URL the user eventually enters for their Airtable base, it *must* conform to the pattern of an Airtable base URL. It checks for the `https:\/\/airtable.com\/` prefix followed by the base ID, which is a sequence of alphanumeric characters. The `__rl: true` flag indicates that this field is configured with a regular expression for input restriction or validation, reinforcing its purpose. This adds a layer of robustness to the workflow, preventing misconfigurations due to incorrect URLs.\n\nNext up is the 'table' parameter. Similar to 'application', the prompt asks for it to be a \"URL field with empty values\" and a specific regex. In the JSON, for `table`, I again see `mode: \"url\"`. So, just like with the application field, I'd change this input to a URL type. This allows users to paste the URL of their specific table within the chosen Airtable base. The `value: \"\"` again means it's left empty, waiting for user input.\n\nAnd once more, the `__regex` is key here: `\"https:\/\/airtable.com\/[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,}\/([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,})\"`. This regex pattern is designed to validate a complete Airtable table URL. It's more specific than the base URL regex because it expects the base ID *and then* the table ID, typically separated by a slash, after the `airtable.com` domain. This ensures that the user provides a valid and correctly formatted URL for the table they intend to interact with. The `__rl: true` also applies here, signifying the regex-based validation. This design choice really emphasizes user-friendliness for input while maintaining data integrity through strict validation patterns.\n\nFinally, since the prompt explicitly states \"a single 'Airtable' node\", I wouldn't be adding any other nodes or making any connections. The `connections: {}` in the JSON confirms this. It's a self-contained operation, designed to be executed perhaps manually or triggered by an external source that isn't part of *this* workflow definition itself. This completes the requirements for the workflow." } { "prompt": "Design an n8n workflow where a Webhook node, configured to accept POST requests, triggers a Set node. Include example incoming webhook data with a JSON body of `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 460]}, {\"parameters\": {\"httpMethod\": \"POST\", \"path\": \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 460]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so I'm looking at building this n8n workflow. The core requirement is pretty clear: we need a Webhook to receive a POST request with specific JSON data, and then it needs to trigger a Set node.\n\nMy first thought always goes to the trigger. How does this workflow start? The prompt explicitly states it's a Webhook that accepts POST requests. So, naturally, the very first node I'd reach for is the **Webhook node**. This is perfect because it's designed specifically for receiving external HTTP requests, which is exactly what we need for an entry point into the workflow.\n\nLooking at the JSON, this node is defined as `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\"` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is the standard Webhook node in n8n, so no surprises there.\n\nNow, let's configure it. The prompt mentions it needs to accept POST requests, and the JSON confirms this with `httpMethod: \"POST\"`. That's a crucial setting because webhooks can typically be configured for GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc., but our requirement is specifically POST. Then there's the `path`, which is `23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201`. This is an auto-generated unique identifier that forms part of the webhook URL. It ensures our webhook has a distinct endpoint to listen on. The `options` parameter is currently an empty object, meaning no special webhook options like authentication or response mode are set, which is fine for this basic setup.\n\nThe prompt also gives an example of incoming webhook data: a JSON body of `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`. I'd expect this data to show up in the `body` field of the incoming item on the Webhook node. And indeed, looking at the `pinData` for the Webhook, I can see that exact `body` structure, alongside other typical HTTP request details like `headers` (host, content-length, content-type, etc.), `params`, `query`, and the `webhookUrl` itself. This confirms the Webhook is correctly set up to capture such an incoming request.\n\nOnce the Webhook receives data, what's next? The prompt says it \"triggers a Set node\". So, my next step is to add that **Set node**. The `type` for this is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and its `typeVersion` is also `1`. The Set node is a versatile node often used to add, modify, or remove data fields on incoming items. In this specific scenario, its `parameters` show `options: {}`, meaning it's not actually *setting* any new values itself. It's more of a placeholder, perhaps indicating that after the webhook, some form of data manipulation or preparation is expected to happen, even if this particular example doesn't define any specific data to set. It could be a simple step to confirm data flow or a precursor to more complex logic later on.\n\nFinally, I need to connect these two nodes. The Webhook is the trigger, and the Set node is the action that follows. So, I'd connect the `Webhook`'s `main` output to the `Set` node's `main` input. This ensures that any data received by the Webhook node, like our `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}` JSON body, is passed along as an item to the Set node for further processing. This completes the basic flow as described." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON that, when manually triggered, sends the prompt \"How much is 1+1?

The prompt explicitly states \"when manually triggered.\" That immediately tells me I need an entry point that a user can interact with directly in the n8n interface.\n\nSo, my first thought is: I need a trigger node. The `Manual Trigger` node is the perfect fit for this. It's simple, straightforward, and does exactly what's described. I'd add a node with type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and typeVersion `1`. It doesn't require much configuration, as its purpose is just to initiate the workflow upon a user's click.\n\nNext, I need to figure out how to send the specific prompt: \"How much is 1+1? Only provide the numerical answer without any other text.\" This is a fixed string, not something dynamic. I need a node that can define this prompt and then pass it along to an actual AI model. Looking at the Langchain-related nodes in n8n, there's usually a \"Chain LLM\" node that allows you to specify the prompt text.\n\nSo, my next step would be to add the `Open AI Chat` node (which is actually a `chainLlm` type node). I'd choose type `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chainLlm` with typeVersion `1.5`. This node is ideal because it has parameters specifically for defining the prompt itself. I'd set the `promptType` to \"define\" to indicate that I'm providing a static, fixed prompt. Then, in the `text` parameter, I'd carefully paste the exact prompt string: \"How much is 1+1? Only provide the numerical answer without any other text.\\n\". The newline character at the end is part of the provided string, so I'd include it. This node now holds the content we want to send to the AI.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The `Manual Trigger` needs to tell the `Open AI Chat` node to execute. So, I'd draw a `main` connection from the `When clicking \"Test workflow\"` node to the `Open AI Chat` node. This means when the trigger fires, the `Open AI Chat` node will then process its defined prompt.\n\nFinally, the prompt needs to be sent to an actual OpenAI model. The requirements specify `gpt-3.5-turbo-0125` with a `temperature` of `0`. This clearly calls for a dedicated OpenAI Chat model node.\n\nI would add the `OpenAI Chat Model` node. Its type is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmChatOpenAi`, and it's typeVersion `1`. This node is designed to configure the specific OpenAI model and its parameters. In its parameters, I'd set the `model` to `gpt-3.5-turbo-0125` exactly as requested. Then, under `options`, I'd set the `temperature` to `0`. This ensures deterministic output, which is generally good for factual or arithmetic questions. For credentials, I'd make sure it's linked to an appropriate OpenAI API credential that would have been pre-configured in n8n; I wouldn't specify any actual sensitive values here, just ensure it points to the correct general credential type.\n\nNow, the crucial connection: how does the `Open AI Chat` node (which has the prompt) actually use the `OpenAI Chat Model`? In n8n's Langchain integration, you typically pass the configured language model *into* the node that processes the prompt. So, rather than a `main` connection from the model *to* the chain, it's the other way around in terms of dependency. The `Open AI Chat` node (the `chainLlm` type) needs to know *which* language model to use.\n\nTherefore, I'd create a specific connection: an `ai_languageModel` connection from the `OpenAI Chat Model` node to the `Open AI Chat` node. This special connection type tells the `Open AI Chat` node, \"Hey, when you're ready to run this prompt, use *this* specific configured OpenAI Chat Model (`gpt-3.5-turbo-0125` at temperature 0) to process it.\" It's essentially providing the execution context for the LLM call.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. The `Manual Trigger` kicks it off, the `Open AI Chat` node prepares the specific prompt, and it then utilizes the `OpenAI Chat Model` node to send that prompt to the configured OpenAI API, receiving the answer back." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that extracts a JSON file attached to an email, processes its binary data, and then writes it into a CSV spreadsheet named 'users_spreadsheet.csv'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"limit\": 1, \"operation\": \"getAll\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [620, 140]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {\"fileName\": \"users_spreadsheet.csv\"}, \"operation\": \"toFile\", \"fileFormat\": \"csv\"}, \"name\": \"write spreadsheet file\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [980, 140]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"move binary data \", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [800, 140]}, {\"parameters\": {\"width\": 320, \"height\": 80, \"content\": \"## JSON file > Sheets\"}, \"name\": \"Note6\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.stickyNote\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [200, 160]}], \"connections\": {\"Gmail\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"move binary data \", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"move binary data \": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"write spreadsheet file\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so I've got this request to build a workflow. The core task is pretty clear: I need to grab a JSON file that's attached to an email, process that binary data, and then convert it into a CSV spreadsheet named 'users_spreadsheet.csv'.\n\nFirst things first, I need to think about how to *get* that JSON file. Since it's coming from an email, a natural fit would be an email node. Looking at the n8n nodes, something like a `Gmail` node or perhaps an `IMAP` node would work best for fetching emails. Given the provided JSON, it looks like a `Gmail` node is the choice here, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.gmail` with `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding the `Gmail` node. Its main job is to connect to a Gmail account and retrieve emails. I'd place it somewhere in the workflow, say, at `[620, 140]` on the canvas. For its parameters, I'd need to configure it to retrieve the email containing the attachment. The `operation` is set to `getAll`, which makes sense because I want to ensure I'm fetching emails. The `limit` is set to `1`, which is good for testing or if I only expect one relevant email at a time. I'd also need to ensure that the necessary `gmailOAuth2` credentials are provided to allow n8n to access the Gmail account, but I wouldn't specify any actual sensitive values here, just know that generic credentials would be configured. The `notesInFlow` set to `true` and the specific `notes` about \"Get email with JSON file\" are helpful reminders within the workflow itself. This node will output the email data, including any attachments, likely as binary data in a specific field.\n\nNow, once I have the email with the JSON attachment, the problem statement says \"processes its binary data.\" An email attachment often comes in a binary format, and I'll need to make sure that data is correctly handled and accessible for the next steps. The JSON shows a `moveBinaryData` node, which is `n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is really useful because it lets me manipulate binary data fields within the workflow items. It can rename them, move them around, or even extract them from specific paths if they're nested. In this case, since it's an attachment, the `Gmail` node probably outputs the attachment data in a field like `data.attachments[0].data` or similar. The `moveBinaryData` node, placed at `[800, 140]`, would be configured to take that binary data from the `Gmail` node's output and make it available under a standard field name (often `data`). The `options` are empty here, which suggests it might be using default behavior to move the primary binary data from the input to the output, or it's implicitly acting on the first available binary property. This node acts as a bridge, ensuring the binary JSON data is correctly prepared for the next processing step.\n\nThe connection here is crucial: the `main` output of the `Gmail` node needs to feed directly into the `main` input of the `move binary data` node. This ensures that the email item, with its attachment binary data, is passed along for processing.\n\nFinally, the goal is to \"write it into a CSV spreadsheet named 'users_spreadsheet.csv'.\" This means I need a node that can take data and write it to a file, specifically a spreadsheet in CSV format. The `spreadsheetFile` node, `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile` with `typeVersion: 1`, seems like the perfect fit for this. I'd place it at `[980, 140]`. Its `operation` is set to `toFile`, which is exactly what I want: writing data to a file. The `fileFormat` is specified as `csv`, matching the requirement. Most importantly, under `options`, the `fileName` is set to `'users_spreadsheet.csv'`, fulfilling the naming requirement directly. This node will take the data, which by this point should be the extracted and processed JSON content (which will be implicitly converted by this node to a tabular format suitable for CSV), and write it out.\n\nThe `move binary data` node's `main` output then connects to the `main` input of the `write spreadsheet file` node. This flow means the cleaned-up binary data representing the JSON content is passed directly to the `spreadsheetFile` node, which will then handle the conversion and writing to the CSV file.\n\nAnd, of course, there's a `stickyNote` (`n8n-nodes-base.stickyNote`, `typeVersion: 1`) at `[200, 160]` with the content \"## JSON file > Sheets\". This is just a helpful visual reminder for anyone looking at the workflow, summarizing its high-level purpose. It doesn't affect the data flow but is part of good workflow documentation.\n\nSo, the whole flow is: `Gmail` fetches the email and its attachment, `move binary data` ensures the attachment's binary data is properly handled, and then `write spreadsheet file` takes that data, converts it, and saves it as the specified CSV file. This seems to cover all aspects of the user's request quite well." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Test workflow 1' that starts with a manual trigger.

So, the very first thing I'd do is set the workflow's name. I'd input 'Test workflow 1' into the workflow name field. And then, I see it needs to be tagged with 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'. I'd go ahead and add those tags to the workflow's settings right away, so it's properly categorized from the start.\n\nNow, for the actual workflow structure. The prompt says it \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This immediately tells me what my very first node should be. I'd open the node panel and search for 'trigger' nodes. The `Manual Trigger` node is perfect for this. It's designed to start a workflow whenever a user clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button or manually triggers it within the n8n interface, which fits the requirement perfectly.\nSo, I'd add a `Manual Trigger` node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and currently, I'd use `typeVersion: 1`. Its default name, \"On clicking 'execute'\", is perfectly fine and descriptive, so I wouldn't bother changing it unless specifically asked. This node doesn't really need any specific parameters configured for this use case, as its function is just to kick off the workflow.\n\nNext, the prompt states it \"should then pass the data to a Code node which adds a field `myNewField` with a value of `1` to the JSON of each input item.\" This clearly indicates my next node. When I need to perform custom logic, manipulate data in ways that standard nodes might not easily handle, or iterate through items with specific transformations, a `Code` node is the go-to choice. It allows me to write JavaScript directly within the workflow.\nSo, I'd drag and drop a `Code` node onto the canvas. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.code`, and I'd be using `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? The `Manual Trigger` needs to pass its output to the `Code` node. In n8n, this is typically done by connecting the \"main\" output of the upstream node to the \"main\" input of the downstream node. So, I'd draw a connection from the `Manual Trigger` node's output handle to the `Code` node's input handle. This ensures that any data (even if it's just the default empty item from the Manual Trigger) flows correctly into the Code node for processing.\n\nFinally, let's configure the `Code` node. This is where the core logic resides. The requirement is to add a field `myNewField` with a value of `1` to the JSON of *each input item*.\nI'd open the `Code` node's parameters. Inside the 'JavaScript Code' field, I'd write the logic. The n8n Code node provides helper variables like `$input` to access incoming data. To process *each* item, I'd use a loop.\n\nThe standard way to iterate over all items passed into a Code node is using `$input.all()`. So, I'd start with a `for...of` loop:\n`for (const item of $input.all()) { ... }`\nInside this loop, for each `item`, I need to access its JSON data. This is typically available under `item.json`. I then need to add the new field `myNewField` with the value `1`. So, it would be:\n`item.json.myNewField = 1;`\nThis line directly modifies the `json` property of the current `item` in the loop.\n\nAfter the loop, it's crucial for the `Code` node to return the modified data so it can be passed on to any subsequent nodes (even if there aren't any in this particular workflow, it's good practice). Since I modified the items in place, I can simply return the `$input.all()` again, which now contains the updated items:\n`return $input.all();`\n\nPutting it all together, the full code in the `Code` node would look like this:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nThis perfectly fulfills the requirement of adding the specific field to each input item. And that completes the workflow as described. The Code node's output doesn't need to connect anywhere specific since the prompt doesn't ask for any further processing or output, so it would just terminate there." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger and connects to an HTTP Request node.

The user prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger\". This is pretty straightforward.\n\nFor that, I'd immediately think of the **Manual Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and looking at the provided JSON, it's `typeVersion 1`. This node is perfect because it allows someone to explicitly click a button to initiate the workflow, which is exactly what \"manual trigger\" implies. It's great for testing or for workflows that aren't meant to run on a schedule or in response to an external event, but rather on demand. It doesn't have a lot of complex parameters to configure, which keeps things simple for the starting point.\n\nNext up, the prompt tells us this manual trigger needs to \"connects to an HTTP Request node.\" This makes total sense; after the workflow is manually triggered, the next action is to make an external call.\n\nSo, following the Manual Trigger, I'll drag and drop an **HTTP Request** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest`, and the JSON shows `typeVersion 4.2`. This is the go-to node for interacting with any web API, which is precisely what we need here to talk to the Perplexity AI API.\n\nNow, let's dive into configuring this HTTP Request node, because this is where all the specific API call details go.\n\nFirst, the prompt says it should be a \"POST call\". So, in the HTTP Request node's parameters, under the 'Method' setting, I'll select `POST`. This tells the node we're sending data to the server, not just requesting it.\n\nNext, the URL. The prompt specifies `https:\/\/api.perplexity.ai\/chat\/completions`. I'll put that directly into the 'URL' field. That's the specific endpoint we're targeting for the chat completions.\n\nThen comes the \"Authorization header\". The prompt mentions \"including an `Authorization` header with the Bearer token\". For this, I'll need to enable the 'Send Headers' option within the node. Once that's enabled, a section for 'Header Parameters' appears. Here, I'll add a new parameter. The 'Name' for this header will be `Authorization`. For the 'Value', it needs to be `Bearer` followed by a token. So, I would configure it to provide a Bearer token value, typically retrieved from a secure credential or manually input if it's a test. This header is crucial for authenticating our request with the Perplexity API.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies a \"JSON body\". This means we need to send data in a structured JSON format. To do this, I'll first ensure 'Send Body' is set to `true`. Then, for the 'Specify Body' option, I'll choose `json`. This tells n8n that the content of our request body will be JSON.\n\nNow, for the actual content of that JSON body. The prompt gives us the exact structure:\n`model: llama-3.1-sonar-small-128k-online`\n`user message: \"what is the cost of running this perplexity api call test?\"`\n\nTranslating this into the JSON body field, it will look like this:\n```json\n{\n \"model\": \"llama-3.1-sonar-small-128k-online\",\n \"messages\": [\n {\n \"role\": \"user\",\n \"content\": \"what is the cost of running this perplexity api call test?\"\n }\n ]\n}\n```\nI'll input this exact JSON structure into the 'JSON Body' text area of the HTTP Request node. The `model` field specifies which large language model we want to use, and the `messages` array, containing an object with `role: \"user\"` and `content` for our actual question, is the standard way to send chat messages to many LLM APIs.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers the configuration for the HTTP Request node. The connection is straightforward: the Manual Trigger's 'main' output connects to the HTTP Request node's 'main' input. This ensures that when the trigger is activated, the workflow execution flows directly into the HTTP Request node, causing it to execute with all the parameters we've just configured." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger named 'On clicking 'execute'' configured to send `start: true`. This trigger should then connect sequentially to a 'Set' node, which in turn connects to another 'Set' node named 'Set1'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"ff739753-9d6e-46a7-94d3-25bd03dd4973\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this n8n workflow designed and built step by step, following the user's requirements and the provided JSON structure.\n\nFirst things first, I see the overall goal is to create an *inactive* workflow. Looking at the JSON, I can confirm right away that `active: false` is set at the top level, so that's covered. It's good practice to ensure the workflow isn't accidentally activated before it's fully tested or if it's meant to be dormant.\n\nNow, let's start with the entry point of our workflow. The prompt says it \"starts with a manual trigger named 'On clicking 'execute''\". This is straightforward. I'd naturally pick a `Manual Trigger` node because it's designed to be initiated by a user click within the n8n interface, which perfectly matches \"On clicking 'execute'\".\n\nSo, I'd add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and set its `typeVersion: 1`. Version 1 is a stable and commonly used version for this basic trigger, and I wouldn't expect any breaking changes for such a fundamental node across typical updates unless I were dealing with a very old n8n instance. I'll make sure to name it exactly as requested: \"On clicking 'execute'\".\n\nA crucial part of this trigger node is its output. The prompt specifies it should be \"configured to send `start: true`\". How do I do that with a manual trigger? I'd look at the `pinData` section in the JSON for this node. Ah, there it is: `{\"json\": {\"start\": true}}`. This tells me that when this manual trigger runs, it will emit a single item with a JSON object containing the key `start` and the boolean value `true`. This initial data payload is essential for subsequent nodes if they depend on it.\n\nNext up, the prompt states, \"This trigger should then connect sequentially to a 'Set' node\". For this, a `Set` node (`type: n8n-nodes-base.set`, `typeVersion: 1`) is the ideal choice. Why a `Set` node? Because its primary function is to manipulate data. You can add, remove, or modify fields. In this specific case, looking at the JSON parameters for this `Set` node, `{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}}`, it appears to be configured to simply pass the data through without adding or changing anything. This is perfectly acceptable if its only role is to serve as an intermediate step in the sequence, as implied by the prompt.\n\nFor the connection, I'd draw a line from the output of our \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the input of this new \"Set\" node. The JSON confirms this connection: `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This means the `main` output of the `Manual Trigger` connects directly to the `main` input of the node named \"Set\". It's a clean, linear flow.\n\nFinally, the prompt says, \"which in turn connects to another 'Set' node named 'Set1'.\" Just like before, I'll add another `Set` node. Again, `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 1` are suitable for the same reasons. I'll name this one \"Set1\", precisely as specified. Its parameters also show `{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}}`, indicating it will also just pass data through.\n\nThe connection for this last node would be from the output of the first \"Set\" node to the input of \"Set1\". The JSON confirms this as well: `\"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`. This establishes the complete sequential flow: `Manual Trigger` -> `Set` -> `Set1`. The data, `{\"start\": true}`, will flow from the initial trigger through both Set nodes." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a Start node and then uses a Code node. The Code node should output a JSON object containing `{'message': 'Hello World!'}`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Hello World\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Start\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.start\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"functionCode\": \"return [\\n {\\n json: {\\n message: 'Hello World!'\\n }\\n }\\n];\"}, \"name\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.code\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [470, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Start\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The goal is pretty straightforward: start a workflow and then use a Code node to output a specific JSON object.\n\nSo, first things first, every n8n workflow needs a starting point, right? You can't just have operations floating in space. For this, the most logical and indeed the required node is the **Start node**. It's the entry point for the workflow's execution. I'd definitely add an `n8n-nodes-base.start` node. The provided JSON confirms this with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.start\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. It doesn't really need any specific parameters configured; it's just there to kick things off. I'm not worried about different type versions here; the basic `Start` node's functionality is pretty stable.\n\nNow, the user's prompt specifically mentions using a **Code node** to generate the output. This is a powerful node because it allows us to write custom JavaScript to manipulate data, perform calculations, or, in this case, create data from scratch. It's perfect for generating a specific JSON structure without needing to fetch it from an external source or parse it from existing data. So, my next step is to add a Code node.\n\nI'll connect the `Start` node's output to the `Code` node's input. The `Start` node doesn't pass any meaningful data in this scenario, but the connection is essential for the workflow to flow from start to the code execution. It's a `main` connection, which is the standard way nodes pass data down the line.\n\nNow, for the `Code` node itself. The JSON tells me it's `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.code\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. The real magic happens in its `functionCode` parameter. The requirement is to output a JSON object `{'message': 'Hello World!'}`.\n\nIn n8n's Code node, whatever JavaScript you write needs to return an array of objects, where each object typically has a `json` property containing the data you want to pass on. So, for our specific requirement, the code needs to look like this:\n\n```javascript\nreturn [\n {\n json: {\n message: 'Hello World!'\n }\n }\n];\n```\n\nThis structure is crucial. We're returning an array because a node can output multiple items (e.g., if you're processing a list of things). Each item in that array is an object, and within that object, the `json` property holds the actual data payload that will be passed to the next node. So, `{'message': 'Hello World!'}` is nested inside `json`, which is itself inside an array. This is exactly what the `functionCode` in the provided JSON has. It's well-formed for n8n's expected output from a Code node.\n\nI wouldn't consider a different type version for the Code node here either, as the core `functionCode` execution model has been consistent for a while for basic operations like this. If we were dealing with more complex features or integrations, versioning might be a more critical thought, but for simple JS execution, it's fine.\n\nSo, to summarize the flow:\n1. The `Start` node initializes the workflow.\n2. It then triggers the `Code` node via a standard `main` connection.\n3. The `Code` node executes its internal JavaScript, which is specifically designed to create and output a single JSON item containing `{'message': 'Hello World!'}`.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps up the design for this simple, yet fundamental, workflow." } { "prompt": "Manually trigger a workflow that queries all data from a PostgreSQL table named \"booksRead\" and converts the returned data into a CSV file.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\\"Execute Workflow\\\"\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [660, 420]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"toFile\", \"fileFormat\": \"csv\"}, \"name\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1260, 420]}, {\"parameters\": {\"values\": {\"string\": [{\"name\": \"TableName\", \"value\": \"booksRead\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"TableName\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [840, 420]}, {\"parameters\": {\"query\": \"=SELECT * FROM {{ $json[\\\"TableName\\\"] }}\", \"operation\": \"executeQuery\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Postgres\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.postgres\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1060, 420]}], \"connections\": {\"Postgres\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"TableName\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Postgres\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"When clicking \\\"Execute Workflow\\\"\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"TableName\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start thinking about how to build this workflow step by step, imagining I'm at the drawing board with an empty canvas.\n\nThe user's request is quite clear: \"Manually trigger a workflow that queries all data from a PostgreSQL table named 'booksRead' and converts the returned data into a CSV file.\"\n\nFirst, I need a way to *start* the workflow. The prompt explicitly says \"Manually trigger.\" So, the very first node I'll reach for is a trigger node, specifically one that allows for manual execution.\n\nI'd add a **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and the `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it provides a button to kick off the workflow, fulfilling the \"manually trigger\" requirement. There are no specific parameters to configure for this node other than its basic existence. It simply acts as the entry point.\n\nNext, I need to query data from a PostgreSQL table. Before I even bring in the PostgreSQL node, I notice the table name, \"booksRead,\" is mentioned. While I could just hardcode this into the PostgreSQL query, it's generally good practice to make things a bit more flexible or readable. If I ever needed to query a different table, I'd have to edit the query directly. A better approach might be to define the table name separately and then reference it.\n\nSo, I'd add a **Set** node right after the Manual Trigger. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is incredibly useful for defining variables or transforming data before passing it on. In this case, I'll use it to store the table name. I'd configure it by adding a \"String\" value. I'd name this value \"TableName\" and set its actual content to \"booksRead.\" This way, the table name is clearly defined and can be easily referenced by subsequent nodes. The connection from \"When clicking 'Execute Workflow'\" to \"TableName\" would be a simple `main` connection, passing an empty item (or whatever the Manual Trigger outputs) to initiate the Set node.\n\nNow that I have the table name ready, I can proceed with the actual database query. The user wants to query data from PostgreSQL. This points directly to the **Postgres** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.postgres` and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is designed specifically for interacting with PostgreSQL databases.\n\nI'd connect the \"TableName\" node's `main` output to the \"Postgres\" node's `main` input. This ensures that the data (which now includes our \"TableName\" variable) flows into the PostgreSQL node.\n\nFor the configuration of the Postgres node:\n* The `operation` needs to be \"executeQuery\" because I'm performing a custom SQL query.\n* The `query` itself needs to be `SELECT * FROM {{ $json[\"TableName\"] }}`. This is where the `Set` node's utility shines. Instead of hardcoding \"booksRead\", I'm dynamically pulling the value from the incoming JSON data using an expression. This makes the query flexible.\n* Crucially, this node requires credentials to connect to the PostgreSQL database. I'd select the appropriate PostgreSQL account from the available credentials. I wouldn't specify any actual ID or name here, but simply choose the pre-configured connection for my database. There are no additional fields to configure for this simple query.\n\nFinally, the retrieved data needs to be converted into a CSV file. This tells me I need a node that handles file conversions, specifically to a spreadsheet format like CSV. The **Spreadsheet File** node is perfect for this. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile` and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node can take tabular data and convert it into various spreadsheet formats.\n\nI'd connect the `main` output of the \"Postgres\" node to the `main` input of the \"Spreadsheet File\" node. This ensures that the results of the database query (the actual rows and columns of data) are passed directly to the conversion node.\n\nFor the configuration of the Spreadsheet File node:\n* The `operation` should be set to \"toFile,\" as I want to output the data as a file.\n* The `fileFormat` is explicitly stated as \"csv,\" so I'd select \"csv\" from the dropdown. There are no other options or additional fields required for this specific task.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. The data flows from the trigger, through a node that sets a dynamic variable, then to the database for querying, and finally to a node that formats the result into a CSV file. Each step logically builds upon the previous one to achieve the user's goal." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

The goal here is pretty clear: start with a simple manual trigger, then use a couple of Set nodes to manipulate some data.\n\nSo, the very first thing we need is a way to kick off the workflow. Looking at the user prompt, it explicitly states \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This makes the choice of the first node quite obvious. I'll reach for the `manualTrigger` node. It's perfect for initiating a workflow directly from the n8n interface, which is exactly what a \"manual trigger\" implies. This particular instance uses `typeVersion: 1`, which is a common and stable version for this basic node. It doesn't require any special parameters \u2013 it just sends an empty item to get things started when someone clicks \"Test workflow.\" That's simple, clean, and exactly what we need as a starting point.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next step in the prompt is to \"use a Set node to add a field called `message` with the value `hello there`.\" Okay, so we need to add new data to the workflow's item. The `Set` node is the ideal choice for this. It allows us to explicitly define new fields or modify existing ones. It's a very versatile node for data manipulation within n8n. I'll connect its main output to the input of this new `Set` node.\n\nThis `Set` node, named \"Edit Fields1\" in the JSON, is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.4`. Inside its parameters, specifically under `assignments`, we'll add a new assignment. We need to define a `name` for the new field, which will be `message`, and its `value` should be `hello there`. Since \"hello there\" is text, the `type` for this assignment will be `string`. This ensures that an item flowing out of this node will now have a `message` field with that specified value, ready for subsequent nodes to use.\n\nNext up, the prompt says \"followed by another Set node that sets a field called `test` to the value of `{{ $json.message }}`.\" This again points directly to another `Set` node. We're still manipulating data, specifically adding another field that *references* an existing one. So, I'll take the output from our first `Set` node (\"Edit Fields1\") and connect it as the input for this new `Set` node.\n\nThis second `Set` node, named \"Repro1\" in the JSON, is also of `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion: 3.4`, matching the previous one. In its `assignments` parameters, we'll add a new field named `test`. The crucial part here is its `value`: `={{ $json.message }}`. The `={{ ... }}` syntax tells n8n that this isn't a static string but an expression that needs to be evaluated. `$json.message` is how we access the `message` field that was just created by the *previous* `Set` node. This means that whatever value was in `message` will now be assigned to the `test` field for that item. The `type` for this assignment will again be `string`, as we expect the result of the expression to be a string.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it! The data flow is straightforward: `manualTrigger` starts with an empty item, the first `Set` node adds `message`, and the second `Set` node then adds `test`, referencing the `message` field it just received.

The goal here is pretty clear: we need to create a workflow that gets triggered by a specific webhook, pulls content from a Google Doc, and then sends that content back as the webhook response.\n\n### Step 1: Setting up the Trigger\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. The prompt states this workflow should be \"triggered by a webhook at the path `onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/GoogleCalendarSetUpAndEventsPlanning`.\" This immediately tells me I need a `Webhook` node. It's the perfect choice for listening for incoming HTTP requests and kicking off the workflow.\n\nSo, I'll add a `Webhook` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the `typeVersion` is `2`. This node is going to sit there, waiting for someone to hit that specific URL.\n\nNow, how do I configure it? The most crucial parameter here is the `path`. I'll set that to `onboarding\/leadgeneration\/guide\/GoogleCalendarSetUpAndEventsPlanning`, exactly as specified. This ensures only requests to this precise endpoint will trigger the workflow.\n\nAnother important setting for the Webhook node is `responseMode`. Since the prompt also says \"respond to the webhook with the retrieved document content,\" I know the response isn't going to be immediate or generic. It needs to wait for another node to generate the actual content. Therefore, I'll set the `responseMode` to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node, \"Don't respond yet; wait for a dedicated 'Respond to Webhook' node later in the workflow to handle the outgoing response.\" This is key for building a workflow where the response depends on subsequent actions.\n\n### Step 2: Fetching Content from Google Docs\n\nOkay, so the webhook is set up. What's next? The prompt says, \"This workflow should fetch the content from the Google Doc located at `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1lEDTSQBcSUCsonPsJRsFeFf6OgF7c9pMoCUPsr1kUNw\/edit?tab=t.0`.\" This clearly points to needing a node that can interact with Google Docs.\n\nThe `Google Docs` node is the obvious choice here. It's specifically designed for this purpose \u2013 reading, writing, and managing documents within Google Docs. I'll add this node directly after the `Webhook` node. So, the `Webhook` node's main output will connect to the `Google Docs` node's main input.\n\nThe `Google Docs` node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion` is `2`.\n\nNow, for its configuration. The prompt specifies fetching content, so the `operation` parameter should definitely be set to `get`. We're *getting* data.\n\nThen, there's the `documentURL` parameter. This is where I'd input the specific URL of the Google Doc that we need to retrieve content from. For privacy and security, I'd just state that \"a specific Google Doc URL would be configured here.\"\n\nCrucially, to access Google Docs, this node will require authentication. So, I'd make sure that the `credentials` parameter is set up to use a Google Docs account with the necessary permissions to access the document. This is often an OAuth2 credential that links to a Google account.\n\n### Step 3: Responding to the Webhook\n\nFinally, the prompt states, \"and respond to the webhook with the retrieved document content.\" This means the content obtained by the `Google Docs` node needs to be sent back as the HTTP response to the initial webhook trigger.\n\nFor this, the `Respond to Webhook` node is perfect. It's purpose-built for sending a response back to the webhook that initiated the workflow, especially when the initial `Webhook` node's `responseMode` was set to `responseNode`.\n\nI'll connect the `Google Docs` node's main output to the `Respond to Webhook` node's main input. This ensures that the data fetched from the Google Doc (including the document content) is available to the `Respond to Webhook` node.\n\nThe `Respond to Webhook` node's `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion` is `1.1`.\n\nNow, let's configure it. We need to send the document content back. The content of a Google Doc is typically text. So, I'll set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`.\n\nAnd how do I get the actual text from the Google Docs node? When the `Google Docs` node fetches content, it usually places it in a field named `content` within its output JSON. So, I'll set the `responseBody` parameter using an expression to pull that specific data: `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression dynamically takes the value of the `content` field from the data passed by the previous node and uses it as the response body.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps it up. The workflow starts with a webhook, fetches the required document, and then sends that document content back through the webhook. Simple, direct, and meets all the requirements." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that starts with a webhook, waits for 2 seconds, and then continues to a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Webhook wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [940, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow based on the prompt \"Create a workflow that starts with a webhook, waits for 2 seconds, and then continues to a Set node.\"\n\nThe first thing that comes to mind is the starting point. The prompt explicitly says it \"starts with a webhook.\" So, my very first step is to bring in a node that can receive external triggers.\n\nFor this, I'd choose the **Webhook** node. It's perfect for initiating a workflow when an external system sends an HTTP request. Looking at the JSON, this node is indeed of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is the standard choice for an entry point triggered by an external event.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Webhook node? The JSON shows it has a `path` parameter with a value like `23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201`. This path is essentially the unique part of the URL that n8n will expose, allowing external systems to send data to this specific workflow instance. It's like giving it a unique address. The `options` parameter is empty, which means we're not setting any specific HTTP methods (like POST or GET) or authentication mechanisms beyond the basic webhook URL itself. For a simple trigger, this is completely fine.\n\nNext, the prompt states that after the webhook, the workflow \"waits for 2 seconds.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can introduce a delay in the execution flow.\n\nThe ideal node for this is the **Wait** node. It's specifically designed to pause the workflow for a specified duration. The JSON confirms this choice, showing `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\"` and `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nTo configure this Wait node, I need to make sure it pauses for the correct amount of time. The prompt says \"2 seconds.\" So, I'd set the `amount` parameter to `2` and the `unit` parameter to `\"seconds\"`. This directly translates the requirement into the node's settings, ensuring the workflow will pause for exactly two seconds before proceeding.\n\nNow, how does the data flow from the Webhook to the Wait node? The workflow needs to progress sequentially. So, I'll connect the main output of the Webhook node to the main input of the Wait node. This ensures that once the webhook receives a trigger and the workflow starts, the execution immediately passes control to the Wait node.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that after waiting, the workflow \"continues to a Set node.\" This is the last step in the described sequence.\n\nFor this purpose, I'd bring in a **Set** node. The Set node is incredibly versatile and is used to manipulate data within the workflow items. You can add new fields, modify existing ones, or even remove fields. The JSON shows `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` and `typeVersion: 1`.\n\nHow do I configure this Set node? The prompt just says \"a Set node,\" not asking it to set any specific values. So, the `options` parameter is currently empty, meaning it's not configured to add or modify any data at this moment. This is perfectly valid; it serves as a placeholder or a continuation point for future data manipulation if the workflow were to be expanded. It effectively receives the data from the previous node and passes it along, even if no changes are made.\n\nAnd, of course, for the workflow to continue, I need to connect the main output of the Wait node to the main input of the Set node. This ensures that once the two-second delay is over, the workflow execution seamlessly moves to the Set node, completing the requested sequence." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that triggers when a Netlify deploy fails. It should then send a Slack message to the 'general' channel, detailing the site name, error message, and a link to the deploy.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"event\": \"deployFailed\", \"siteId\": \"ab52947e-a696-4498-a5a1-fae7fbe30c84\"}, \"name\": \"Netlify Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.netlifyTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"=\\ud83d\\udea8 Deploy Failed \\ud83d\\udea8\\nDeploy for the site {{$json[\\\"name\\\"]}} failed.\\nError Message: {{$json[\\\"error_message\\\"]}}\\nYou can find more information here: https:\/\/app.netlify.com\/sites\/{{$json[\\\"name\\\"]}}\/deploys\/{{$json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\", \"channel\": \"general\", \"attachments\": [], \"otherOptions\": {}}, \"name\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.slack\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Netlify Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Slack\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The user wants to be notified on Slack if a Netlify deploy fails, with specific details. This sounds like a straightforward webhook-based trigger followed by a messaging action.\n\nMy first thought is always, \"What's the trigger?\" The prompt explicitly states, \"triggers when a Netlify deploy fails.\" This immediately points me towards a Netlify-specific trigger node.\n\nSo, I'd start by pulling in a **Netlify Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.netlifyTrigger`, and looking at the provided JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is absolutely perfect because it's designed to listen for events coming directly from Netlify. It acts as a webhook listener, which is precisely what we need for real-time notifications.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Netlify Trigger node? The prompt says \"when a Netlify deploy fails.\" So, I'd go into its parameters and look for an event type. The JSON shows `parameters.event` is set to `\"deployFailed\"`. That's exactly what we want \u2013 it will only activate when Netlify specifically reports a deploy failure. The JSON also indicates a `parameters.siteId`. This is important because it means the trigger is configured to listen for deploy failures for a *specific* Netlify site, identified by that unique ID. If we wanted it to trigger for all sites, the configuration might be different, but for now, it's scoped to one. And of course, to interact with Netlify and receive these webhooks, it needs authentication. The `credentials.netlifyApi` is set, indicating that Netlify API credentials would be provided here to allow n8n to connect securely.\n\nOnce the Netlify trigger fires, it will receive a payload of data about that failed deploy. This data is crucial for the next step.\n\nThe next part of the requirement is to \"send a Slack message to the 'general' channel, detailing the site name, error message, and a link to the deploy.\" This clearly calls for a Slack node.\n\nSo, I'd drag in a **Slack** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.slack`, and it's also `typeVersion: 1`. This node is the standard way to interact with Slack from n8n, allowing us to post messages, and it's exactly what's needed here.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? When the Netlify trigger receives data, that data needs to be passed to the Slack node. So, I'd create a connection from the \"main\" output of the `Netlify Trigger` node to the \"main\" input of the `Slack` node. This ensures that the information about the failed deploy flows directly into the Slack node for processing.\n\nConfiguring the Slack node is where we use the data from the Netlify trigger.\nFirst, the prompt specifies the channel: \"to the 'general' channel.\" Looking at the JSON, `parameters.channel` is set to `\"general\"`. Perfect, that matches the requirement.\n\nNext, the most important part: the message content. The prompt requires the \"site name, error message, and a link to the deploy.\" This means we'll need to use expressions to pull dynamic data from the Netlify trigger's output.\nThe `parameters.text` field in the JSON contains a single, multi-line expression. Let's break it down:\n\n* The start `=\\ud83d\\udea8 Deploy Failed \\ud83d\\udea8\\n` provides a clear, static header with some emojis to make it stand out in Slack. The `\\n` creates a newline.\n* Then, `Deploy for the site {{$json[\\\"name\\\"]}} failed.` This is where the dynamic data comes in. The `{{$json[\"name\"]}}` part is an expression that accesses the \"name\" property from the JSON data received from the *previous* node (the Netlify Trigger). This \"name\" property would represent the site's name, fulfilling the \"detailing the site name\" requirement.\n* Next line: `Error Message: {{$json[\\\"error_message\\\"]}}\\n`. Similarly, `{{$json[\"error_message\"]}}` is another expression, pulling the \"error_message\" property from the Netlify payload. This directly addresses the \"error message\" requirement.\n* Finally, `You can find more information here: https:\/\/app.netlify.com\/sites\/{{$json[\\\"name\\\"]}}\/deploys\/{{$json[\\\"id\\\"]}}`. This cleverly constructs a direct link to the failed deploy in the Netlify UI. It reuses `{{$json[\"name\"]}}` for the site path in the URL and crucially uses `{{$json[\"id\"]}}` to get the unique deploy ID. This precisely meets the \"link to the deploy\" requirement, making it easy for the user to click through and investigate.\n\nThe JSON also shows `parameters.attachments` as an empty array and `parameters.otherOptions` as an empty object. This means the message will be a plain text message, without any complex Slack block kits or additional formatting, which is fine for the stated requirements.\n\nLastly, just like Netlify, the Slack node needs to authenticate to be able to send messages. The `credentials.slackApi` is set, indicating that appropriate Slack API credentials would be configured there.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow is designed to be lean and perform exactly what was asked: trigger on Netlify deploy failure and send a concise, informative Slack message." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named 'Peekalink:isAvailable preview' which starts with a 'Start' node that connects in parallel to two 'Peekalink' nodes; one performing an 'isAvailable' operation for `https:\/\/example.com\/`, and the other also configured with `https:\/\/example.com\/`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Peekalink:isAvailable preview\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Start\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.start\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"isAvailable\", \"url\": \"https:\/\/example.com\/\"}, \"name\": \"Peekalink\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.peekalink\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [550, 250]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/example.com\/\"}, \"name\": \"Peekalink1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.peekalink\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [550, 400]}], \"connections\": {\"Start\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Peekalink1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}, {\"node\": \"Peekalink\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's design this n8n workflow from the ground up, keeping the user's request and the provided JSON structure firmly in mind.\n\nFirst off, the overall goal here is to create a workflow that checks the availability of a specific URL using the Peekalink service, and it needs to do so twice, in parallel. The workflow itself should be inactive when deployed. I'll make sure to set the workflow's overall state to `inactive` and give it the specified name: 'Peekalink:isAvailable preview'.\n\nNow, thinking about the nodes. Every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger of sorts. The request explicitly states it \"starts with a 'Start' node\". So, that's the very first node I'll add.\n\nI'll choose the `n8n-nodes-base.start` node type. This is `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it serves as the entry point for manual execution or simply to kick off a workflow. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters for this use case; it just sits there, ready to be triggered. I'll place it centrally towards the left side of my canvas, say at coordinates `[250, 300]`, as a good starting point.\n\nNext, the prompt mentions two 'Peekalink' nodes that connect in parallel from the 'Start' node. Parallel execution means both will run simultaneously after the 'Start' node triggers. I'll add the first one.\n\nFor interacting with the Peekalink API, the `n8n-nodes-base.peekalink` node type is the obvious choice. This is `typeVersion: 1`. It's specifically designed for this service. This node will be configured to perform an 'isAvailable' operation. So, in its parameters, I'll set `operation` to \"isAvailable\". The target URL for this operation is specified as `https:\/\/example.com\/`, so I'll put that in the `url` parameter. To use the Peekalink service, it will need credentials, so I'll make sure there's a placeholder for an API key or similar authentication configured, which would link to a credential entry like \"Peekalink API\". I'll position this node further to the right and slightly above the 'Start' node, perhaps at `[550, 250]`, to visually indicate it's a parallel branch.\n\nNow, for the second Peekalink node. The request says \"the other also configured with `https:\/\/example.com\/`\". Again, the `n8n-nodes-base.peekalink` node type (`typeVersion: 1`) is correct for this. Looking closely at the JSON, this node is named \"Peekalink1\". Interestingly, its configuration only explicitly contains the `url` parameter set to `https:\/\/example.com\/`. The `operation` parameter isn't explicitly defined for this second node in the provided JSON, unlike the first Peekalink node. This might imply that 'isAvailable' is the default operation for the node when only a URL is provided, or that the design relies on the user's general request for an \"isAvailable\" preview, even if not explicitly set on *this* particular node in the JSON parameters. Regardless, following the JSON, I'll configure only the `url` parameter to `https:\/\/example.com\/`. Similar to the first Peekalink node, it will also require Peekalink API credentials. I'll position this node parallel to the first Peekalink node, but slightly below the 'Start' node, maybe at `[550, 400]`, completing the visual representation of the parallel branches.\n\nFinally, the connections. The 'Start' node needs to connect to both 'Peekalink' and 'Peekalink1' in parallel. This means the 'Start' node's main output will branch out to both of them. So, from the 'Start' node's `main` output (index 0), I'll draw a connection to the input of 'Peekalink' and another connection to the input of 'Peekalink1'. This ensures that when the workflow starts, both Peekalink operations are triggered simultaneously. The 'Start' node doesn't typically pass specific data in this scenario; it primarily serves to initiate the downstream nodes." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger, connects to a 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node set to 'getAllPeople' with specific sample output data for five literary characters including id, name, email, notes, country, and created fields, and finally connects to an 'Edit Fields' node that passes all data through.", "json": "{\"name\": \"NDV search bugs (introduced by schema view?)\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [800, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}, \"name\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1020, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": []}, \"includeOtherFields\": true, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [1240, 380]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, planning out this workflow, the first thing I need is a starting point. The prompt specifically asks for a manual trigger. That's straightforward enough.\n\nSo, I'll start by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. This node type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and based on the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This is the perfect choice for a workflow that needs to be initiated by a user clicking a button, rather than reacting to an external event or a scheduled time. Its parameters are typically empty, as its sole purpose is to kick off the workflow when activated. I'd label it something descriptive like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" to make its function clear in the interface.\n\nNext, the prompt requires connecting to a 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node and setting it to 'getAllPeople'. This is where we'd fetch our sample customer data.\n\nSo, I'll connect the output of the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node to a new node. This will be a **Customer Datastore (n8n training)** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node is specifically designed for accessing simulated customer data in an n8n training environment, which fits perfectly with the prompt's description.\n\nFor its configuration, the prompt states it should be set to `getAllPeople`. So, within this node's parameters, I'd set the `operation` to `\"getAllPeople\"`. This tells the node to retrieve all available customer records from its simulated database.\n\nNow, an important point here is the sample output data. The prompt asks for specific sample output data for five literary characters. This isn't something I configure *within* the `Customer Datastore` node itself, but rather it's the *expected result* when that `getAllPeople` operation runs. The JSON's `pinData` section neatly provides this. It shows what data the node would output: a list of five distinct customer records, each with `id`, `name`, `email`, `notes`, `country`, and `created` fields, precisely as requested, including characters like Jay Gatsby and Zaphod Beeblebrox. This `pinData` serves as a mock or example of the data that would flow out of this node after a successful execution.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies connecting to an 'Edit Fields' node that \"passes all data through.\"\n\nSo, I'll take the output from the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node and connect it to a new node. This will be a **Set** node, often referred to as \"Edit Fields\" in the UI. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and the JSON shows `typeVersion: 3.4`. This node is incredibly versatile for manipulating or passing through data.\n\nTo fulfill the requirement of \"passing all data through,\" I'd configure this Set node with specific parameters. Looking at the JSON, `parameters.includeOtherFields` is set to `true`. This is crucial because it ensures that any fields that aren't explicitly modified or created within this node are still passed along to the next step. Additionally, `parameters.assignments.assignments` is an empty array `[]`. This means no new fields are being added, and no existing fields are being modified or removed. Together, these settings achieve the goal: the node receives data, makes no changes to it, and outputs all of it exactly as it received it. It's essentially a pass-through or debugging step in this context, useful for inspecting the data structure at a specific point in the workflow without altering it." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object for an inactive workflow named 'CRAWL dataa QUAN LEN', with `createdAt` and `updatedAt` timestamps of '2025-03-28T03:54:16.496Z', `triggerCount` 0, and `settings.executionOrder` 'v1'.

The prompt explicitly says it's for an \"inactive workflow\". So, right at the top level, I'll set the `active` property to `false`. This ensures that even if it were complete and had nodes, it wouldn't run until someone manually toggles it on.\n\nNext, let's get the identifying details in place. The prompt gives me a clear `name`: \"CRAWL dataa QUAN LEN\". This is straightforward; it's just a string that will appear in the workflow list.\n\nThen, I see `createdAt` and `updatedAt` timestamps. Both are specified as '2025-03-28T03:54:16.496Z'. This tells me that this workflow is being defined at a specific moment, and since both timestamps are the same, it implies it's a fresh definition that hasn't been modified since its initial creation. I'll place these exact timestamp strings.\n\nThe request also asks for placeholder `id` and `versionId`. These are critical for the system to uniquely identify this particular workflow instance and its specific version. For the `id`, I'll just use a generic placeholder string, something like \"f4lL0OCunm8opuxQ\" which looks like a typical short ID. For the `versionId`, a UUID format is common, so a placeholder like \"8dee12d6-4b1b-476e-8951-b6bcd12190d0\" fits perfectly. These aren't user-specific values, just system-generated unique identifiers.\n\nMoving on, the prompt states `triggerCount` should be 0. This makes perfect sense for a new, inactive workflow; it hasn't had any successful triggers yet. So, I'll set `triggerCount` to `0`.\n\nNow, let's consider the content of the workflow itself. The prompt asks that `meta` and `staticData` are `null`. These fields are for storing additional, less structural metadata or persistent data that the workflow might need, but for many workflows, they aren't necessary. Setting them to `null` indicates there's no specific meta-information or static state defined for this workflow at this point.\n\nThen, it specifies `connections`, `nodes`, `pinData`, and `tags` must be empty.\n* `connections`: This is an object that defines how data flows between nodes. Since the workflow is being built as conceptually \"empty\" \u2013 meaning no operational steps or `nodes` \u2013 there won't be any connections. So, an empty object `{}` is the correct representation.\n* `nodes`: This is the core of any workflow, where all the individual processing steps are defined. The prompt implies an empty workflow by not specifying any nodes. Therefore, an empty array `[]` is exactly what I need here. This means the workflow doesn't perform any actions or operations currently. If I were designing a functional workflow, this is where I'd start adding a 'Start' node, maybe a 'HTTP Request' node, or a 'Set' node, and so on, but for this particular request, it remains empty.\n* `pinData`: This is often related to user interface preferences, like which items are \"pinned\" in the editor view. For a programmatic generation, an empty object `{}` is the appropriate default.\n* `tags`: These are for categorization, like \"CRM\", \"Marketing\", \"Scheduled\". The prompt doesn't provide any, so an empty array `[]` is correct.\n\nFinally, I need to address the `settings`. The prompt specifically requests `settings.executionOrder` to be 'v1'. This property dictates how the workflow engine processes the nodes, particularly relevant for complex flows with branches. 'v1' is a common default or a specific version of the execution logic. So, I'll create a `settings` object and place `executionOrder: \"v1\"` inside it. This is a crucial, workflow-wide configuration.\n\nAnd with that, I've covered all the requirements for this workflow definition. It's a complete, albeit empty and inactive, workflow structure." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that, when manually triggered, executes another workflow with the ID '1'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [220, 340]}, {\"parameters\": {\"workflowId\": \"1\"}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [410, 340]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Execute Workflow\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this n8n workflow. The user wants something that can be manually kicked off and, when it is, it should then go and trigger another specific workflow.\n\nFirst things first, I need a way for the workflow to *start* when someone manually triggers it. Looking at the n8n nodes, the most straightforward and obvious choice for this is a \"Manual Trigger\" node. It's designed exactly for scenarios where you want a workflow to be initiated by a user clicking a button in the n8n interface. So, I'll go ahead and add an `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node. This node, with its `typeVersion: 1`, is perfect because it simply waits for a manual execution signal and then outputs an item to start the flow. For its parameters, there's nothing specific required here; it just needs to be present and active. I'll give it a descriptive name like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's clear what it does.\n\nNow, what happens *after* it's triggered? The prompt states it needs to \"execute another workflow.\" This immediately tells me I'll need a node that has the capability to call or run a separate n8n workflow. Digging through the available nodes, the \"Execute Workflow\" node is precisely what I need. It's specifically built for this purpose \u2013 to allow one workflow to trigger another. So, my next step is to add an `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow` node. This node also has `typeVersion: 1`, which means I'm using the standard, current version.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? It's pretty clear: the output of the \"Manual Trigger\" node should feed directly into the input of the \"Execute Workflow\" node. When the manual trigger is activated, it will pass control to the \"Execute Workflow\" node, telling it to do its job. So, I'll create a connection from the `main` output of \"On clicking 'execute'\" to the `main` input of \"Execute Workflow\". This ensures a direct flow of execution.\n\nFinally, I need to configure the \"Execute Workflow\" node. The prompt specifies that it should execute another workflow \"with the ID '1'.\" This is the crucial piece of information for this node's parameters. The \"Execute Workflow\" node has a parameter specifically for `workflowId`, which is where you tell it *which* workflow to execute. So, I'll set that `workflowId` parameter to \"1\". This tells the node, \"When you run, go and find the workflow with ID 1 and execute it.\" No other parameters seem necessary for this specific request.\n\nAnd that's it!

Thinking about the prompt, the very first thing we need is a way to kick off the workflow, and the user specifically asked for a \"manual trigger.\"\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and in this case, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it allows us to initiate the workflow simply by clicking a button in the n8n interface, which is exactly what \"manual trigger\" implies. It's often used for testing or for workflows that are run on an ad-hoc basis.\n\nNow, the prompt also says this trigger needs to \"provide two items: `{'a': 1}` and `{'a': 2}`.\" For a Manual Trigger node, we can pre-define the data it outputs when it runs. Looking at the `pinData` section of the JSON, I see exactly that: `[{\"a\": 1}, {\"a\": 2}]` for the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node. So, I'd configure the Manual Trigger to output these two separate JSON items. This means when we execute the workflow, two distinct items will flow out, each containing an 'a' property.\n\nNext up, the prompt asks us to \"Connect this to an 'If' node.\" This immediately tells me the next step is to branch our workflow based on some condition.\n\nSo, I'd bring in an **If** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.if`, and here it's `typeVersion: 2.2`. This node is absolutely essential for conditional logic. It takes incoming data and, based on a condition we define, routes the data to one of two outputs: a \"true\" path or a \"false\" path.\n\nNow, how do we connect it? Looking at the `connections` in the JSON, I see that the `When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019` node's `main` output connects to the `If` node's `main` input. This is standard; the data items from the trigger will flow directly into the If node, one by one.\n\nThe crucial part for the If node is its configuration. The prompt specifies it \"checks if the value of `a` is equal to 3.\" Let's break down how that translates into the If node's parameters:\n* We need to compare something, so we look at the `conditions` within its `parameters`.\n* The `leftValue` needs to reference the 'a' property from the incoming data. So, `={{ $json.a }}` is the correct expression. This tells n8n to look at the current item's JSON data and extract the value of the `a` field.\n* The `rightValue` is what we're comparing `a` against, which is `3`.\n* And finally, the `operator` needs to be `equals` for a `number` type comparison, as we're checking for exact equality. The `typeValidation: \"strict\"` and `caseSensitive: true` are good default settings for robust comparisons, even though for numbers, case sensitivity isn't relevant. This setup ensures that if 'a' is indeed 3, the item goes one way, otherwise, it goes the other.\n\nFinally, the prompt states: \"connect both the true and false outputs of the 'If' node to a 'DebugHelper' node.\" This is a common practice for testing and understanding data flow.\n\nSo, the last node I'd add is a **DebugHelper** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper`, and it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is incredibly useful during development. It doesn't modify the data; it simply displays the incoming data, making it easy to inspect what's arriving at a particular point in the workflow. It's essentially a no-op that helps us \"see\" the data.\n\nLooking at the connections for the `If` node, it shows that `main` output (which typically represents both true and false paths) connects to the `DebugHelper` node's `main` input twice. This is exactly how you'd connect both outcomes of an If node to a single downstream node. Both items (`{'a': 1}` and `{'a': 2}`) will pass through the If node, and since neither `a` is equal to 3, they will both follow the \"false\" path, but then both will funnel into the DebugHelper, allowing us to see them in the execution results.\n\nFor the `DebugHelper` itself, the `alwaysOutputData: true` parameter ensures that it will always pass its input data to any subsequent nodes, even though in this specific workflow, it's the terminal node. It's also categorized as `randomData` for internal organizational purposes, but that doesn't affect its core functionality here.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the requirements and the provided JSON. We have the trigger, the conditional logic, and a way to observe the results." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a trigger expecting a 'state' input.

The prompt says \"starts with a trigger expecting a 'state' input\".\n- I'd reach for a trigger node. A very versatile one for receiving data, whether from a manual test or an external call, is the **Execute Workflow Trigger** node. This is a `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1`. I'd typically place this at the very left of my canvas as the entry point. Its parameters are empty (`{}`), which is perfect because it's designed to accept whatever JSON data is passed to it when it's triggered, which will include our 'state' property.\n\nNext, the core of this workflow is the interaction with an LLM. The prompt explicitly states \"It then uses a Basic LLM Chain\".\n- So, I'll add a **Basic LLM Chain** node. This is a `n8n-nodes-langchain.chainLlm` with `typeVersion: 1.4`. I'd connect the 'main' output of my `Execute Workflow Trigger` to the 'main' input of this `Basic LLM Chain` node. This connection is essential because it passes the data from the trigger (including the `state` we're interested in) to the chain, making it available for use in the prompt.\n\nNow, how do I configure this `Basic LLM Chain`? The prompt specifies \"based on the prompt 'list 10 largest cities in {{ $json.state }}'\".\n- Inside the `Basic LLM Chain` node's parameters, I'd set the `Prompt Type` to `Define`. This allows me to write a custom prompt template.\n- For the `Text` parameter, I'd input `=list 10 largest cities in {{ $json.state }}`. The leading `=` tells n8n that this is an expression, and `{{ $json.state }}` is how I dynamically pull the `state` value from the incoming JSON data provided by the `Execute Workflow Trigger`. This is crucial for making the workflow dynamic for any state.\n\nThe prompt also states that the chain should use \"the Ollama `phi3:mini` model\". This means I need to tell the `Basic LLM Chain` which language model to use.\n- I'll add an **Ollama Model** node to my canvas. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-langchain.lmOllama` with `typeVersion: 1`.\n- In its parameters, I'd select `phi3:mini` from the `Model` dropdown. There are no special `Options` specified, so I'd leave those at their defaults. This node also requires an Ollama API credential to connect to my Ollama server; I would have configured that separately (the JSON shows a credential ID, but I wouldn't specify its actual value here, just that it's connected).\n- Now, for the connection: The `Ollama Model` doesn't pass data in a traditional 'main' flow. Instead, it provides a *service* to the `Basic LLM Chain`. So, I'd connect the `Ollama Model` node's output to the `Language Model` input of the `Basic LLM Chain`. This tells the chain, \"Hey, use this specific Ollama model for your LLM tasks.\"\n\nFinally, the prompt says \"and an Item List Output Parser\". After the LLM generates text, I want it structured as a clean list.\n- I'll add an **Item List Output Parser** node. This is a `n8n-nodes-langchain.outputParserItemList` with `typeVersion: 1`. This node is designed to take a string of text (like \"1. City A\\n2. City B\") and parse it into an actual list of items, making it much easier to use downstream in the workflow. The `Options` here can be left at their defaults, as they usually suffice for simple lists.\n- Similar to the Ollama Model, this parser also provides a service to the `Basic LLM Chain`. I'd connect the `Item List Output Parser` node's output to the `Output Parser` input of the `Basic LLM Chain`.\n- One last crucial step for the `Basic LLM Chain`: I need to ensure it knows to *use* the connected output parser. I'd go back to the `Basic LLM Chain` node's settings and confirm that the `Has Output Parser` option is enabled (`true`). This tells the chain, \"After you get the raw response from the LLM, pass it through the connected parser before giving it as your final output.\"\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps it up. The connections are established, the nodes are configured as specified, and the data flow makes sense for achieving the stated goal." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow titled 'Toutes les fonctions n8n'. It should start with a manual trigger, connect to a `set` node named 'Edit Fields' that outputs raw JSON containing various data types (string, number, array, object, boolean), and then connect to another `set` node named 'Edit Fields1' which assigns the specific string '=TESTER LES FONCTIONS ICI' to an 'output' variable.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Toutes les fonctions n8n\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"mode\": \"raw\", \"jsonOutput\": \"{\\n \\\"string\\\": \\\"Bonjour\\\",\\n \\\"number\\\": 2.5,\\n \\\"array\\\":[\\\"Hugo\\\",\\\"Lucas\\\",\\\"Mark\\\"],\\n \\\"object\\\":{\\\"prenom\\\":\\\"Benoit\\\",\\\"nom\\\":\\\"Ferrere\\\",\\\"taille_en_cm\\\":193},\\n \\\"boolean\\\":true\\n}\\n\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"3f8db0d7-2189-4218-a93d-7cea10a5dadb\", \"name\": \"output\", \"value\": \"=TESTER LES FONCTIONS ICI\\n\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Edit Fields\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Edit Fields1\": {\"main\": [[]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed. The request is pretty clear: we need a workflow called 'Toutes les fonctions n8n', starting with a manual trigger, then a `set` node to create some diverse data, and finally another `set` node to assign a specific string.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, something to kick it off. Since the prompt specifies a \"manual trigger,\" the natural choice for that is the `manualTrigger` node. Looking at the JSON, I see it's `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node is perfect because it allows someone to explicitly click a button in the n8n UI to start the workflow, which aligns perfectly with a manual trigger requirement. It doesn't really have any parameters to configure beyond its basic existence, so it's quite straightforward to set up. I'll name it \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" as per the JSON, which is a good descriptive name for its function.\n\nNext, the prompt asks for a `set` node named 'Edit Fields' that outputs raw JSON containing various data types. A `set` node (`type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"`, `typeVersion: 3.4`) is the go-to choice when you want to explicitly create or modify data that gets passed along in the workflow. It's incredibly versatile for shaping the data structure. So, I'll draw a connection from our \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node to this new 'Edit Fields' node. This ensures that when the workflow starts, the data (initially just an empty item from the trigger) flows into this `set` node to be populated.\n\nNow, for configuring 'Edit Fields'. The requirement is to output raw JSON with various data types. This means I'll need to set the `mode` parameter to \"raw\". Then, within the `jsonOutput` parameter, I'll carefully craft the JSON string exactly as specified in the prompt and JSON. This JSON includes:\n* A string: `\"string\": \"Bonjour\"`\n* A number: `\"number\": 2.5`\n* An array of strings: `\"array\":[\"Hugo\",\"Lucas\",\"Mark\"]`\n* An object with multiple properties: `\"object\":{\"prenom\":\"Benoit\",\"nom\":\"Ferrere\",\"taille_en_cm\":193}`\n* A boolean: `\"boolean\":true`\nThis setup is crucial because it demonstrates how different data types can be injected into the workflow's item data. The `typeVersion` of 3.4 for the `set` node indicates it's a relatively recent version, which generally means good stability and features, though the core functionality of setting data hasn't drastically changed across minor versions.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies another `set` node named 'Edit Fields1' which assigns the specific string '=TESTER LES FONCTIONS ICI' to an 'output' variable. Again, a `set` node is the right tool for this job, as we're performing a direct assignment. So, I'll connect 'Edit Fields' to this new 'Edit Fields1' node. This way, the rich data we just created in 'Edit Fields' will be passed on to 'Edit Fields1', where we can then add or modify a new field.\n\nFor the 'Edit Fields1' configuration, we're not dealing with raw JSON output this time, but rather assigning a specific value to a new or existing field. So, within its `parameters`, I'll use the `assignments` array. I'll add an entry there where `name` is 'output', and `value` is the exact string `\"=TESTER LES FONCTIONS ICI\"`. The `type` for this assignment should be \"string\" since we're explicitly setting a string value. This is a common pattern for adding or renaming fields in the item data as it flows through the workflow. This node also has `typeVersion: 3.4`, consistent with the previous `set` node.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The workflow starts, gets triggered, generates a rich dataset, and then appends a specific \"output\" field with a fixed string. The connections ensure the data flows sequentially from the trigger to the first set node, then to the second set node. The `active: false` setting in the JSON means it's not live yet, which is typical for a newly designed workflow; you'd activate it once it's ready for use." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

The goal is pretty clear: we need a workflow that starts manually and then uses Segment to track an event.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger.\" So, that's what I'll grab first.\n\nI'm looking for a node that lets me kick off the workflow myself, usually for testing or when I want to run it on demand. The `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node is absolutely perfect for this. It's straightforward and does exactly what its name implies. I'll add this one to the canvas. Looking at the provided JSON, it's set as `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` with `typeVersion: 1`. This is the standard, widely used version, so no concerns about compatibility or needing a different behavior from an older or newer version here. As for its configuration, the JSON shows `parameters: {}`, which means for this specific trigger, there aren't any special settings needed \u2013 it simply waits for a manual click to start. This keeps it simple, which is great.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's the next step? The prompt states that it should \"then use a Segment node configured to track an event.\" This gives us our next node type directly.\n\nSo, I'll need to find the Segment integration node. This will allow the workflow to interact with Segment's analytics API. The `n8n-nodes-base.segment` node is exactly what we need for this. I'll pull that onto the canvas. Its `typeVersion: 1` indicates it's the standard version for this node type as well, which is good.\n\nNow, how do these two nodes connect? We want the Segment action to happen *after* the manual trigger fires. So, the output of our \"On clicking 'execute'\" (the manual trigger node's default name) should feed directly into the input of the Segment node. Looking at the `connections` in the JSON, it confirms this: `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Segment\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means the main output of the trigger node will go into the main input of the Segment node, making it execute sequentially. That's a standard, clean flow.\n\nNext, let's configure this Segment node. The prompt is very specific: it needs to \"track an event.\" Segment's API has different types of calls: identify, track, page, group, etc. To track an event, the `resource` parameter needs to be set to `\"track\"`. This tells the Segment node exactly what kind of action it should perform on the Segment API. The JSON confirms this parameter is set correctly: `resource: \"track\"`. Perfect.\n\nThen, there's the `event` parameter. This is crucial for tracking because it's where you define the name of the event you're sending to Segment (e.g., \"User Signed Up\", \"Product Viewed\", \"Button Clicked\"). The JSON shows `event: \"\"`. This means that in a real-world scenario, a specific event name would be entered here. For now, it's just a placeholder, signaling that this is a value the user will need to define based on what they actually want to track. It's left intentionally blank, ready for customization.\n\nFinally, for the Segment node to actually communicate with your Segment account, it needs credentials. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"segmentApi\": \"\"}`. This tells me that a Segment API key (specifically, the Write Key) would be configured here in the credentials section of the n8n instance. This is where you link the node to your specific Segment workspace. It's appropriately empty in the JSON as it's sensitive information, but it's clearly marked where it needs to be filled in for the workflow to function.\n\nAnd that's it! We have a manual trigger flowing into a Segment node configured to track an event, with placeholders for the event name and credentials. It's a simple, direct workflow that fulfills the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a POST Webhook node connected to a Set node, and configure the Webhook with test input data where the body is `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 460]}, {\"parameters\": {\"httpMethod\": \"POST\", \"path\": \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 460]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start thinking about how to build this n8n workflow. The request is pretty clear: it needs to begin with a POST Webhook and then connect directly to a Set node, with specific test input for the Webhook.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a trigger. The prompt explicitly states \"starts with a POST Webhook node\". So, that's where we'll begin.\n\n1. **Adding the Webhook Node**\n * **Node Type:** I'll choose the `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node. This is the standard node for receiving HTTP requests, which is exactly what a webhook does.\n * **Type Version:** Looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This is good, it means we're using a stable version of the node. Different versions might have slight variations in parameters or behavior, but for a fundamental node like Webhook, version 1 is perfectly suitable.\n * **Purpose & Configuration:** The primary purpose of this node is to act as an entry point for external systems to send data into our workflow. The prompt specifies a \"POST Webhook\", so I'll configure the `httpMethod` parameter to \"POST\". This ensures it only responds to POST requests.\n * The `path` parameter is set to \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\". This looks like a unique identifier, and n8n typically generates these to create a distinct endpoint URL for each webhook. This allows multiple webhooks to exist within the same n8n instance without conflicting. The `webhookId` also matches this path, which is just an internal identifier.\n * The `options` are empty, meaning no special configurations like response mode or authentication are set, keeping it simple for this initial setup.\n * **Test Input Data:** The request also specifies configuring the Webhook with test input data. This is where the `pinData` section in the JSON comes in handy. It shows that when this workflow was tested, the Webhook node received a body of `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}`. This is crucial; it means when the webhook is hit, we expect to see this specific JSON structure in the incoming data. This data will then be passed on to the next node.\n\n2. **Adding the Set Node and Connecting It**\n * Now that we have our trigger, the prompt states it needs to be \"connected to a Set node\".\n * **Connection:** I'll draw a connection from the \"main\" output of the Webhook node to the \"main\" input of the Set node. This ensures that whatever data the Webhook receives (including that test body data) is directly passed to the Set node for further processing. The `connections` object in the JSON confirms this: `{\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This is a straightforward, linear flow.\n * **Node Type:** The next node is a `n8n-nodes-base.set` node.\n * **Type Version:** Again, it's `typeVersion: 1`, a common and stable version for this node type.\n * **Purpose & Configuration:** The Set node is incredibly versatile. It can be used to add new fields to the data, modify existing ones, or even remove fields. In this particular configuration, looking at its `parameters` in the JSON, they are empty (`\"options\": {}`). This means the Set node, in its current state, isn't actually *setting* or *changing* any data. It essentially acts as a passthrough. It receives the data from the Webhook node and simply outputs it as is.\n * Why might it be there if it's not setting anything? It could be a placeholder for future logic (e.g., \"I'll add some data manipulation here later\"), or perhaps it's just there to clearly separate the trigger from subsequent processing steps, even if those steps aren't defined yet. For this specific workflow, with no parameters set, it will just pass the `{\"here\": \"be\", \"dragons\": true}` body data right through.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the provided JSON and prompt.

It doesn't require any specific configuration; it just waits for a click.\n\nNext, the prompt specifies that we need to define five sample JSON items. For creating or defining static data within a workflow, a `Set` node is often the most straightforward choice. It allows you to create new fields and values, or simply define a fixed set of items. So, I'd add a `Set` node, which the JSON calls `Edit Fields`. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion 3.2`. I'll connect its main output from `When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019`'s main input, so that when the workflow starts, it immediately proceeds to generate these items. Inside this `Edit Fields` node, rather than using the 'Fields' property in its parameters, the provided JSON shows that the five sample JSON items are defined directly in the `pinData` structure associated with this node. This means the node is essentially pre-loaded with these specific JSON items, ready to be passed down the workflow. These items contain fields like `id`, `name`, `email`, `notes`, `country`, and `created`. It's a handy way to inject predefined test data into the workflow's stream.\n\nNow, the prompt says this `Edit Fields` node connects to a `Break pairedItem chain` Code node that outputs a single item `{\"field\": \"the same\"}`. This sounds like a crucial step for data transformation. When you need to execute custom JavaScript logic, or when you need fine-grained control over the exact data structure being passed along, a `Code` node is the go-to. So, I'd add a `Code` node, named `Break pairedItem chain`. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.code` and `typeVersion 2`. I'll connect the main output from `Edit Fields` to the main input of this `Code` node. The key configuration for this node is its JavaScript code: `return [{\"field\": \"the same\"}];`. This is significant because, regardless of how many items (`Edit Fields` generated five), this `Code` node will *always* output exactly one item, `{\"field\": \"the same\"}`. This effectively discards all the upstream data and replaces it with a completely new, singular item. The name \"Break pairedItem chain\" makes a lot of sense now; it's literally breaking the sequence or context of the incoming items.\n\nFinally, the prompt instructs us to connect this output to an `Error` Set node, which attempts to retrieve the 'name' field from the original 'Edit Fields' node using the expression `{{ $('Edit Fields').item.json.name }}`. So, another `Set` node is needed. This one is named `Error` and is also of type `n8n-nodes-base.set` and `typeVersion 3.2`. I'll connect the main output of `Break pairedItem chain` to the main input of `Error`. Inside this `Error` node, we're trying to set a field using an expression. The expression is `={{ $('Edit Fields').item.json.name }}`. This is very interesting. The `$` syntax is a global reference to a node's output. So, `$('Edit Fields')` refers to the entire output of the `Edit Fields` node, which originally had five items. The `.item.json.name` part is attempting to access the `name` field from the *current item's* JSON structure. However, because the `Break pairedItem chain` node has replaced all incoming items with a single, new item, the context of `item` here might be tricky. This expression, `$('Edit Fields').item.json.name`, will likely try to grab the `name` from the *first* item of `Edit Fields`'s output, since `item` in this global context usually refers to the first item when there's no active iteration, or it might behave unexpectedly if `item` implies a current item that no longer maps correctly due to the previous `Code` node's action. This setup, especially with the node named \"Error\", suggests that this expression might not yield the expected result for all original items, or might even cause an error if it expects an iterative context that is no longer present. It seems designed to demonstrate a common pitfall when data streams are transformed and then global references are attempted without considering the altered item context." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger named 'On clicking execute'. This trigger should then connect to a 'Set' node, which in turn connects to another 'Set' node named 'Set1'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"ff739753-9d6e-46a7-94d3-25bd03dd4973\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [820, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1040, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Set\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start conceptualizing this n8n workflow. The user wants a pretty straightforward, linear sequence of operations: a manual trigger, followed by two \"Set\" nodes.\n\nThe first thing I always think about when building a workflow is, \"How does this thing get started?\" In this case, the prompt explicitly states \"starts with a manual trigger named 'On clicking execute'\". Looking at the provided JSON, I see a node that perfectly matches this requirement.\n\nSo, the very first node I'd bring onto the canvas would be a **Manual Trigger** node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is 1. This node is absolutely ideal because it's designed specifically for workflows that are meant to be initiated by a user clicking a button in the n8n interface, which aligns with \"On clicking execute.\" It doesn't require any special configuration parameters for its basic operation, which is reflected in its `parameters` object being empty in the JSON. It just sits there, waiting for that manual push to start the workflow. I'd position it somewhere logical, perhaps towards the left, as it's the starting point.\n\nFrom this `manualTrigger` node, the workflow needs to flow into a \"Set\" node. So, my next thought is, \"What's the immediate action after the trigger?\" The prompt says \"This trigger should then connect to a 'Set' node.\" So, after the `manualTrigger`, I'd connect an **Set** node. Looking at the JSON, I find one with `name: \"Set\"`, its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and `typeVersion` is 1.\n\nThe `Set` node is incredibly versatile. It's often used to add, remove, or modify data fields within the workflow's incoming items. In this specific configuration, the `parameters` object for this \"Set\" node is empty. This tells me that, as it's currently set up, it's not actually *setting* any specific values or performing any complex data manipulation. It's essentially acting as a pass-through, or perhaps a placeholder, ready to be configured later if specific data transformations were needed. For now, it simply takes the output from the `manualTrigger` (which is typically just an empty item, or an item with basic execution data) and passes it along. The connection from the `manualTrigger` to this `Set` node would be a standard `main` connection, ensuring the flow of execution and data. I'd place this to the right of the `manualTrigger` to maintain a left-to-right flow.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies \"which in turn connects to another 'Set' node named 'Set1'.\" So, after that first `Set` node, the flow clearly needs to continue to a second one. I'd add another **Set** node. Again, checking the JSON, there's a node named \"Set1\" with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This perfectly fulfills the requirement.\n\nJust like the first \"Set\" node, this \"Set1\" node also has an empty `parameters` object. This implies the same behavior: no specific data operations are being performed by *this* node either in its current state. It's simply receiving the item(s) from the preceding \"Set\" node and, presumably, passing them on or ending the workflow. The connection from the first \"Set\" node to \"Set1\" would again be a `main` connection, keeping the execution path clear and sequential. I'd place \"Set1\" to the right of the first \"Set\" node, completing the linear chain. This design is clean and easy to follow, just a simple sequence of operations." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, sets a `state` variable to `scotland`, and then executes the 'DEMO \u2014 top 10 cities in a state' sub-workflow.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow 6\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": [{\"id\": \"84f94782-aef8-49dd-ad12-32987290d9c7\", \"name\": \"state\", \"value\": \"scotland\", \"type\": \"string\"}]}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [940, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"workflowId\": {\"__rl\": true, \"value\": \"PESVetnBwNJ2i9Pw\", \"mode\": \"list\", \"cachedResultName\": \"DEMO \\u2014 top 10 cities in a state\"}, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Execute Workflow\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [1160, 320]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Edit Fields\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Execute Workflow\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's break down how I'd build this n8n workflow from scratch, based on the user's request and the provided JSON.\n\nSo, the user wants a workflow that \"manually triggers, sets a `state` variable to `scotland`, and then executes the 'DEMO \u2014 top 10 cities in a state' sub-workflow.\"\n\nThe very first thing I'd think about is how this workflow is going to start. The prompt explicitly says \"manually triggers.\" Looking at the n8n nodes, the most straightforward way to achieve a manual trigger for testing or ad-hoc runs is to use the `Manual Trigger` node.\n\n1. **Node: `Manual Trigger`**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n * **Type Version:** `1`\n * **Why this node:** This is the foundational node for any workflow that needs to be initiated by a user clicking a \"Test workflow\" or \"Execute workflow\" button within the n8n interface. It provides a simple starting point, outputting a single, empty item which we can then enrich with data. It's perfect for development and testing. I wouldn't need any special configuration for this node; its default behavior is exactly what's required here.\n\nNext, the prompt says \"sets a `state` variable to `scotland`.\" This tells me I need a way to introduce data into the workflow, specifically a field named `state` with the value `scotland`. The `Manual Trigger` node itself doesn't output any useful data by default, so I need to add another node to manipulate the data stream.\n\n2. **Node: `Set`**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n * **Type Version:** `3.4`\n * **Why this node:** The `Set` node is incredibly useful for exactly this purpose: adding, modifying, or removing fields from items as they pass through the workflow. It's clean and efficient for simple data transformations. I could potentially use a `Function` node for this, but for just setting a static value, the `Set` node is much clearer and requires less code.\n * **Configuration:** For this node, I'd go into its parameters and add a new assignment. I'd set the \"Name\" field to `state` and the \"Value\" field to `scotland`. It's important to specify that the \"Type\" of this value is \"string,\" although n8n often infers this correctly. This ensures that the downstream nodes receive an item with a `state` property holding the desired string value.\n * **Connection:** This `Set` node would connect directly from the `Manual Trigger`'s output. The `Manual Trigger` passes its single empty item to the `Set` node, which then takes that item, adds the `state: 'scotland'` property to it, and passes this enriched item along.\n\nFinally, the prompt states \"and then executes the 'DEMO \u2014 top 10 cities in a state' sub-workflow.\" This clearly indicates a need to call another workflow from within our current one.\n\n3. **Node: `Execute Workflow`**\n * **Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflow`\n * **Type Version:** `1.1`\n * **Why this node:** This node is specifically designed for invoking other n8n workflows. It allows you to modularize your logic, making workflows reusable and easier to manage. Since we need to run a *sub-workflow*, this is the perfect tool. The `Execute Workflow` node automatically passes the input items it receives to the called workflow. This is crucial because our `state` variable, which we just set, needs to be available to the 'DEMO \u2014 top 10 cities in a state' workflow.\n * **Configuration:** The key configuration here is selecting the specific workflow to execute. In the `workflowId` parameter, I'd choose the \"DEMO \u2014 top 10 cities in a state\" workflow from the dropdown list. n8n typically shows a human-readable name like \"DEMO \u2014 top 10 cities in a state\" and internally uses its unique ID. There are also options like waiting for the sub-workflow to finish or not, but for this scenario, the default behavior (passing input and executing) is generally sufficient unless specified otherwise.\n * **Connection:** This `Execute Workflow` node would connect from the `Set` node. It receives the item that now contains the `state: 'scotland'` property, and it uses that item as the input for the 'DEMO \u2014 top 10 cities in a state' sub-workflow.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. It starts manually, prepares the necessary `state` variable, and then hands off the execution to the relevant sub-workflow." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow JSON with ID 199, named 'MailCheck:Email:check', which is currently inactive.

I'm starting from scratch, thinking about how I'd put all the pieces together to meet these requirements.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs some fundamental properties. I'd define the workflow's identity: giving it a specific ID, which is `199` as requested, and a clear name: `MailCheck:Email:check`. It's also specified that this workflow should be `inactive` initially. This is a good safety measure, preventing it from running until it's fully configured and tested. So, the `active` flag would be set to `false`.\n\nNow, for the actual flow of operations. Every n8n workflow needs a starting point, a trigger that kicks things off. The most basic and fundamental way to do that is with a 'Start' node. So, I'd drag and drop a 'Start' node onto the canvas. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.start`, and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is really straightforward; it doesn't require any specific parameters itself, it just signifies the beginning of the workflow execution. I'd place it at a convenient spot, say `[250, 300]` on our virtual canvas. This is usually the first node you place, setting the stage for everything else.\n\nNext, the core task of this workflow is to perform a \"Mailcheck\". This immediately tells me I need a node specifically designed for that purpose. Luckily, n8n has a built-in 'Mailcheck' node. So, I'd pick that one. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.mailcheck`, and again, `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect for validating or checking details about an email address using a dedicated service.\n\nOnce I have the 'Mailcheck' node, I need to connect it to the 'Start' node. The 'Start' node's primary output needs to feed into the 'Mailcheck' node's primary input. This ensures that when the workflow begins, the 'Mailcheck' operation is the very next step to execute. I'd set up this connection, from 'Start's `main` output, targeting 'Mailcheck's `main` input at index `0`.\n\nNow, I need to configure the 'Mailcheck' node. What does it need to do its job? It needs an email address to check. The prompt specifies 'jan@n8n.io', so I'd input that into the `email` parameter of the 'Mailcheck' node. Furthermore, this node likely interacts with an external API service to perform the mailcheck. To do that securely, it needs credentials. The requirement mentions \"Mailcheck API creds\". So, I'd link it to a pre-configured set of credentials, generically identified by `id` and `name`, that would securely store the necessary API key or token for the Mailcheck service. This keeps sensitive information out of the workflow definition itself. I'd place this node around `[470, 300]`, logically flowing from the start node.\n\nBeyond the nodes themselves, there are some overall workflow settings. One crucial setting is the `timezone`. The prompt specifies `Europe\/Berlin`. This is important for ensuring that any time-based operations, logging, or schedule-related functions within the workflow adhere to this specific time standard, preventing any discrepancies in execution or data interpretation. So, I'd set `settings.timezone` to `Europe\/Berlin`.\n\nFinally, there's a piece of `staticData`. This is quite interesting. It's attached to the workflow itself, not a specific node currently in the `nodes` array. Specifically, it's defined for a `node:Clockify Trigger`. This means that even if a 'Clockify Trigger' node isn't present in this version of the workflow, the workflow remembers persistent data for it. This static data includes a `userId` and a `lastTimeChecked` timestamp. This mechanism is incredibly useful for nodes that need to maintain state between executions, like a trigger node that tracks the last time it pulled new data to avoid processing duplicates. Even though the 'Clockify Trigger' node isn't in my current `nodes` list, I'd ensure this `staticData` is correctly associated with the workflow, as it's crucial for preserving context across different runs or even if a 'Clockify Trigger' node were to be added or re-added later. It acts as a persistent memory for specific node types within this workflow instance." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow featuring a Webhook node with the path `FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`. Simulate an incoming test request for this webhook, including detailed headers but with empty body, query, and parameters.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [360, 220]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's think through how to set up this n8n workflow. The core requirement here is to create a workflow that listens for incoming webhooks and then to simulate a specific test request for it.\n\nWhen starting any n8n workflow, the first thing I consider is what initiates the workflow. Is it a schedule, a manual trigger, an email, or, in this case, an incoming HTTP request? The prompt explicitly mentions a \"Webhook node\" and simulating \"an incoming test request,\" which immediately tells me that a Webhook node is the fundamental starting point for this workflow. This is because webhook nodes are specifically designed to listen for and respond to incoming HTTP requests, making them perfect for event-driven workflows initiated by external systems.\n\nSo, my first step would be to add a **Webhook** node. This node has a `type` of `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and a `typeVersion` of `2`. Choosing this specific node type ensures that the workflow can be triggered by an HTTP call to a unique URL that n8n exposes. The `typeVersion` being 2 indicates it's a relatively recent version of the node, likely incorporating any enhancements or bug fixes over previous versions, but for a basic webhook, the core functionality remains consistent across versions.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Webhook node? The prompt states that the webhook should have the path `FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`. This is a crucial piece of information. Inside the Webhook node's `parameters` section, I'd set the `path` property to this exact string. This path, when combined with the base URL of the n8n instance (like `http:\/\/localhost:5678\/webhook\/` or `https:\/\/your-n8n-instance.com\/webhook\/`), forms the complete URL where the webhook will listen. The `options` parameter is left empty, which means we're sticking with the default behaviors for the webhook, such as not requiring specific authentication or responding with a custom body initially.\n\nOnce the Webhook node is in place and configured with its path, the workflow is technically ready to receive requests. However, the prompt also asks to \"Simulate an incoming test request.\" This is where the workflow's `pinData` comes into play. The `pinData` section in the workflow JSON is specifically used to store example data that can be used for testing the workflow without actually sending a live request. It's essentially a pre-recorded input.\n\nFor this simulation, the prompt specifies \"detailed headers but with empty body, query, and parameters.\" Looking at the `pinData` for our \"Webhook\" node, I see an array containing a single item, which represents our simulated request.\n\nInside this simulated request data:\n* The `headers` object is populated with various HTTP header fields like `connection`, `user-agent`, `accept`, `cookie` (though a specific cookie value would typically be omitted or generalized in a template for security), `host`, and `accept-encoding`. These headers accurately reflect what a typical browser-like request might send, fulfilling the \"detailed headers\" requirement.\n* The `params` object is empty (`{}`), which aligns with the \"empty parameters\" requirement. Parameters typically come from URL path segments.\n* The `query` object is also empty (`{}`), fulfilling the \"empty query\" requirement. Query parameters appear after a `?` in the URL.\n* The `body` object is empty (`{}`), which meets the \"empty body\" requirement. This signifies that there's no data sent in the request's payload, such as a JSON or form submission.\n* `webhookUrl` is provided, showing the full URL that would have been hit (`http:\/\/localhost:5678\/webhook-test\/FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`). The `-test` part in the URL confirms it's for a test execution.\n* Finally, `executionMode` is set to `\"test\"`. This confirms that this specific data set is intended for a test run within the n8n environment, rather than capturing data from a live production execution.\n\nSo, essentially, this workflow is a single-node setup. Its purpose is to act as an entry point for external systems, identified by its unique path. The `pinData` then serves as a pre-defined example of what an incoming request *looks like* to that Webhook node, allowing for easy testing and development of subsequent workflow logic, even without a live external trigger. Since there are no other nodes in the `nodes` array and `connections` is empty, this workflow simply receives the webhook and then, in a real scenario, would finish, or in a test scenario, would process this test data and then stop." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts manually, then uses a DebugHelper node to generate random data, specifically from the 'randomData' category.

For that, the most appropriate node is a `Manual Trigger` node. This `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node, with `typeVersion: 1`, is specifically designed to initiate a workflow when a user clicks the \"Test workflow\" or \"Execute workflow\" button in the n8n UI. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters for this basic use case, which is why its `parameters` block is empty in the JSON. It just acts as the entry point, signaling the start of the process.\n\nNext, the prompt asks us to generate random data, specifically from the 'randomData' category. To achieve this, a `DebugHelper` node is an excellent choice. While it's primarily used for debugging and inspecting data, the `DebugHelper` node, `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.debugHelper\"`, `typeVersion: 1`, also has a very convenient feature: it can generate various types of synthetic data. In this case, we'd configure its `category` parameter to `'randomData'`, as specified. This will cause the node to output a set of randomly generated items, which will be useful for testing the subsequent steps without needing external data sources. So, we'll connect the output of our `Manual Trigger` node to the input of this `DebugHelper` node, ensuring that once the workflow starts, the random data is immediately generated.\n\nNow that we have our random data, the requirement is to filter it. We only want to proceed if the `email` field within the generated data contains a dot (`.`). For this kind of conditional routing, the `Filter` node is exactly what we need. This `n8n-nodes-base.filter` node, `typeVersion: 2`, is perfect for checking conditions against incoming data and only passing items that meet those conditions.\nWe'll configure its `conditions` to check the `email` field. Specifically, we'll set the `leftValue` to an expression that accesses the `email` property of the current item, like `={{ $json.email }}`. For the `rightValue`, we'll simply put a dot `.` as a string. The `operator` will be set to `contains`, specifically of `type: \"string\"` and `operation: \"contains\"`, to ensure it looks for the dot anywhere within the email string. The `caseSensitive` option is set to `true`, which is fine here since a dot is a specific character and case sensitivity doesn't apply. `typeValidation` is set to `strict`, which is generally good practice to ensure the data types match expectations for the comparison. We'll connect the main output of the `DebugHelper` node to the input of this `Filter` node. This means that only items where the generated email address contains a dot will continue down the workflow path.\n\nFinally, if the data passes the filter, we need to send a Telegram message. The prompt specifies a particular chat ID and text. For sending messages via Telegram, the dedicated `Telegram` node is the way to go. This `n8n-nodes-base.telegram` node, `typeVersion: 1.1`, allows us to interact with the Telegram Bot API. Inside its parameters, we'll set the `chatId` to the specific value '123123' as requested, and the `text` parameter will be set to '1123123'. Of course, for this node to actually function, we'd also need to have Telegram credentials configured in n8n, typically involving an API token for a bot, but those are managed separately and not part of the node's visible parameters. We'll connect the main output of the `Filter` node (which represents the items that *passed* the filter) to the input of this `Telegram` node. This ensures that a Telegram message is only sent for each piece of random data whose `email` field successfully contained a dot." } { "prompt": "Manually trigger a workflow to read the binary file at `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv`, and then process its content using the Spreadsheet File node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [650, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"filePath\": \"\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv\"}, \"name\": \"Read Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 320]}], \"connections\": {\"Read Binary File\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Read Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The user's request is pretty clear: \"Manually trigger a workflow to read the binary file at `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv`, and then process its content using the Spreadsheet File node.\"\n\nRight, the very first thing I need is a way to kick off this workflow. The prompt explicitly says \"Manually trigger,\" so that's my starting point.\n\nI'll add the **Manual Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and `typeVersion` is 1. This node is perfect because, as its name suggests, it allows the workflow to be executed simply by clicking a button in the n8n interface, fulfilling the \"manually trigger\" requirement. There aren't any specific parameters to configure for this node; its purpose is simply to initiate the workflow.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next step in the prompt is \"read the binary file at `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv`.\" So, I need a node that can access the file system and read a file.\n\nFor that, I'll bring in the **Read Binary File** node. This is a `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile` type, and its `typeVersion` is 1. This node is exactly what's needed for reading files from the local file system where the n8n instance is running. It's designed to output the file content as binary data, which is crucial for the next step.\n\nNow, how do I connect these? The \"Manual Trigger\" needs to initiate the file reading. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (my Manual Trigger node) to the `main` input of the \"Read Binary File\" node. This ensures that when the workflow starts, the file reading operation immediately follows.\n\nNext, I need to configure the \"Read Binary File\" node. The prompt specifies the exact file path: `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv`. So, in the parameters for the \"Read Binary File\" node, I'll set the `filePath` to `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv`. This tells the node precisely which file to locate and read.\n\nAfter reading the file, the prompt says \"and then process its content using the Spreadsheet File node.\" This means the binary output from the \"Read Binary File\" node needs to be fed into a node capable of understanding spreadsheet formats.\n\nSo, the next node to add is the **Spreadsheet File** node. This node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile`, and its `typeVersion` is 1. This node is specifically designed to parse and extract data from various spreadsheet formats, including CSV files, which `\/data\/sample_spreadsheet.csv` suggests. It will take the binary content and convert it into a structured JSON format that n8n can easily work with.\n\nFor the connections here, it's clear: the binary output from the \"Read Binary File\" node needs to go directly into the \"Spreadsheet File\" node. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the \"Read Binary File\" node to the `main` input of the \"Spreadsheet File\" node. This ensures the raw file content is passed along for processing.\n\nRegarding the configuration of the \"Spreadsheet File\" node, the JSON shows `options` as an empty object. This implies that for this particular use case, the default parsing options are sufficient. For a CSV file, n8n is usually smart enough to automatically detect the delimiter and other common settings, so explicit configuration might not be necessary unless there were specific needs like a non-standard delimiter or header row handling.\n\nAnd that's it. The workflow starts manually, reads the specified binary file, and then passes its content to the Spreadsheet File node for processing. The output of the Spreadsheet File node would then be the parsed data, ready for whatever subsequent operations might be needed, though the prompt doesn't specify any further steps." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, retrieves all customer records (including fields like `id`, `name`, `email`, `notes`, `country`, and `created`) from a 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node, and pipes them into an 'Edit Fields' node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"NDV search bugs (introduced by schema view?)\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [800, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\"}, \"name\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1020, 380]}, {\"parameters\": {\"assignments\": {\"assignments\": []}, \"includeOtherFields\": true, \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 3.4, \"position\": [1240, 380]}], \"connections\": {\"When clicking \\u2018Test workflow\\u2019\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Edit Fields\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's think through building this workflow step by step. The prompt is to create an n8n workflow that manually triggers, retrieves customer records, and then pipes them into an 'Edit Fields' node. Looking at the provided JSON, it seems like a clear, linear flow.\n\nFirst, I need to address the \"manually triggers\" requirement. For that, the most direct approach in n8n is to use a manual trigger node. This allows a user to simply click a button in the n8n UI to kick off the workflow.\nSo, the first node I'd add is the **Manual Trigger** node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`.\n* Its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n* This node is perfect because it's exactly what's needed to start the workflow on demand, typically during testing or when a user wants to run it ad-hoc. The `parameters` for this node are empty, which is standard as it doesn't require any specific configuration beyond its existence to function as a trigger.\n\nNext, the prompt states we need to \"retrieve all customer records (including fields like `id`, `name`, `email`, `notes`, `country`, and `created`) from a 'Customer Datastore (n8n training)' node.\" This points directly to a specific n8n training node that simulates a customer database.\nSo, after the Manual Trigger, I'd connect it to the **Customer Datastore (n8n training)** node.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`.\n* Its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n* For its configuration, the `parameters` clearly show `operation: \"getAllPeople\"`. This is crucial because it tells the node *what* to do \u2013 in this case, retrieve *all* records. This directly addresses the requirement to get \"all customer records.\" The training datastore is designed to provide sample data with exactly the specified fields (`id`, `name`, `email`, `notes`, `country`, `created`), so this node fits perfectly.\n* The connection from the `When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019` (Manual Trigger) node to this `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node would be a `main` connection. This means the output of the manual trigger (which is usually just an empty item or a simple trigger item) flows into the input of the datastore node, essentially just telling it \"start fetching.\" The datastore node will then perform its `getAllPeople` operation and output the customer records.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies piping these retrieved records into an \"Edit Fields\" node. In n8n, \"Edit Fields\" typically refers to the `Set` node, which is used to modify, add, or remove fields from the data items flowing through the workflow.\nSo, the last node in this simple chain would be the **Edit Fields** node, connected from the Customer Datastore.\n* Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.set`.\n* Its `typeVersion` is `3.4`. It's good to note the version; sometimes capabilities or parameter names might differ slightly between versions, but version 3.4 is a common and stable one for this node.\n* Looking at its `parameters`, I see `assignments: {assignments: []}`. This is interesting. It means there are no specific field modifications or additions being defined within this node. However, crucially, it also has `includeOtherFields: true`. This parameter is key because it ensures that *all* fields from the incoming items (which are the customer records from the datastore) are passed through this `Set` node without being dropped. So, even though it's called \"Edit Fields,\" in this specific configuration, it's acting more as a passthrough or a final destination for the data, ensuring all original customer fields are preserved as they flow into it. It perfectly fulfills the \"pipes them into\" requirement without unnecessary transformation. If `includeOtherFields` were false, only explicitly assigned fields would pass, which would not meet the \"pipes them into\" requirement fully for all fields.\n* The connection from the `Customer Datastore (n8n training)` node to the `Edit Fields` node would also be a `main` connection. This ensures that all the customer records retrieved by the datastore node are passed as individual items into the `Edit Fields` node for processing (or in this case, simply passing through).\n\nThis completes the workflow. It's a straightforward, linear flow that directly addresses all the requirements in the prompt." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"Webhook wait set\" that starts with a Webhook node, flows into a Wait node configured for 2 seconds, and then proceeds to a Set node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Webhook wait set\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [500, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"amount\": 2, \"unit\": \"seconds\"}, \"name\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wait\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [720, 580]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [940, 580]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wait\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Wait\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's get this workflow designed. The prompt is clear: a workflow named \"Webhook wait set\" that starts with a Webhook, pauses for 2 seconds using a Wait node, and then finishes with a Set node. This sounds like a fairly straightforward sequence, often used for rate limiting or simply introducing a delay before further processing.\n\nFirst things first, the overall name for the workflow needs to be \"Webhook wait set\". I'll make sure that's set correctly in the workflow's metadata.\n\nNow, onto the nodes themselves. A workflow needs an entry point, something to kick it off.\n\nLooking at the prompt, it explicitly states it \"starts with a Webhook node\". So, that's my very first choice.\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook`\n* **Type Version**: `1`\n\nWhy a Webhook node? Well, it's the standard way to trigger an n8n workflow from an external source. Someone or something sends an HTTP request to a specific URL, and this node catches it, starting the workflow. It's perfect for receiving webhooks from other services or even just a simple cURL command for testing.\n\nNow, how to configure this Webhook node? The JSON shows some parameters.\n* `path`: It has a unique path, something like `23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201`. This is critical because it's what makes the specific URL unique for this workflow's trigger. When this workflow is active, n8n will generate a URL like `[n8n_instance_url]\/webhook\/23fc3930-b8f9-41d9-89db-b647291a2201` that external systems can call. I wouldn't set a specific path myself, I'd usually let n8n generate one, or if there's a requirement for a human-readable path, I'd define that here.\n* `options`: This seems to be empty, which is fine. Often, you might configure things like response mode (e.g., immediate, first item) here, but for a basic trigger, the defaults are usually sufficient.\n\nIts position is `[500, 580]`, which puts it nicely on the left, a typical starting point in the canvas.\n\nOkay, so the webhook is ready to receive something. What's next? The prompt says it \"flows into a Wait node configured for 2 seconds.\" So, a Wait node is the logical successor.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.wait`\n* **Type Version**: `1`\n\nWhy a Wait node? It's literally in the name! Its purpose is to pause the execution of the workflow for a specified period. This is incredibly useful in many scenarios: for rate limiting API calls, waiting for an external process to complete, or simply introducing a delay for a more human-like interaction flow.\n\nConfiguration for the Wait node:\n* `amount`: The JSON specifies `2`.\n* `unit`: The JSON specifies `seconds`.\nThis perfectly matches the requirement to wait for \"2 seconds\". If the prompt had asked for minutes or hours, I'd adjust the `unit` accordingly. This is straightforward and exactly what I need.\n\nNow, how does the Wait node connect to the Webhook? The output of the Webhook's \"main\" connection needs to feed into the \"main\" input of the Wait node. This ensures that once the webhook receives data, that data is then passed on to the Wait node to begin its pause.\n\nIts position is `[720, 580]`, which places it directly to the right of the Webhook, keeping the flow clean and linear.\n\nAfter the Wait node, the prompt states it \"then proceeds to a Set node.\" So, that's my final node in this sequence.\n\n* **Node Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version**: `1`\n\nWhy a Set node? The Set node is extremely versatile. Its primary function is to create new data, modify existing data, or filter out data from the incoming items. In this particular case, the JSON shows its `parameters.options` as empty. This means it's not actually *setting* any specific values. It might just be acting as a placeholder, or perhaps the intention is to simply pass the data through without modification, or maybe new fields would be added later in development. It's a common practice to end a sequence with a Set node if you want to inspect the final state of the data, or if you're building a larger workflow and this is just the end of a segment. It acts as a sort of \"final output\" point for this particular flow segment.\n\nConfiguration for the Set node:\n* `options`: It's an empty object `{}`. If I were adding data, I'd specify key-value pairs here, perhaps `{\"value\": \"Processed after wait\"}` to add a new field, or expressions to manipulate existing data. But for this specific requirement and JSON, it's just passing through.\n\nFinally, the connection. The output of the Wait node's \"main\" connection will feed into the \"main\" input of the Set node. This ensures that once the 2-second wait is over, the original data from the webhook (and any subsequent modifications, though none here) is then passed to the Set node for its final processing or just observation.\n\nIts position is `[940, 580]`, which again, continues the linear flow to the right.\n\nSo, the flow is clear: Webhook gets triggered, data goes to Wait, Wait holds it for 2 seconds, and then the data is passed to the Set node. This fulfills all the requirements laid out in the prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow starting with a manual trigger named 'On clicking 'execute''.

The user explicitly states, \"Generate an n8n workflow starting with a manual trigger named 'On clicking 'execute''.\" This is pretty clear. I'll go with a manual trigger node, as it's designed precisely for initiating a workflow directly from the n8n editor or via a specific execution button. It\u2019s perfect for testing or for workflows that aren't driven by external events or schedules.\n\nSo, I'd add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. Its `typeVersion` is `1`, which indicates it's a standard, stable version of this basic trigger node. I'll name it \"On clicking 'execute'\" as requested. This node doesn't require any specific parameters; its purpose is simply to start the execution flow when activated. It just acts as the entry point, effectively saying, \"Okay, let's go!\"\n\nNow that we have our starting point, what's the next step? The prompt says, \"Connect it to a Mailjet node configured to send an email...\" This immediately tells me the next node I need: a Mailjet integration.\n\nI'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.mailjet`. This specific type is ideal because it provides direct integration with the Mailjet API for sending emails, which is exactly what's required here. The `typeVersion` is `1`, again, a standard version. I'll name this node \"Mailjet\" for clarity.\n\nNext, I need to think about how this Mailjet node should be configured. The user has given very specific instructions for the email:\n* \"send an email from 'user@example.com'\" \u2013 This means I need to set the `fromEmail` parameter within the Mailjet node's configuration.\n* \"to 'user2@example.com'\" \u2013 Similarly, the `toEmail` parameter will be set to the recipient's address.\n* \"with the subject 'Sample Subject'\" \u2013 This translates directly to the `subject` parameter.\n* \"and body 'This is a test message'\" \u2013 The email content goes into the `text` parameter.\n* \"using 'mailjet creds'\" \u2013 This refers to the authentication credentials. The Mailjet node will have a `credentials` property, and specifically, it will point to an existing credential configuration, likely for the Mailjet Email API, which handles authentication to send emails. I'll ensure this is set up to reference the appropriate credential entry. I'll make sure not to include the actual credential name, just that it's a credential that's linked. The `additionalFields` object is currently empty, which makes sense as no other specific Mailjet features were requested beyond basic sending.\n\nFinally, the connection. The manual trigger needs to initiate the Mailjet node. So, I'll draw a connection from the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to the \"Mailjet\" node. This will be a standard \"main\" connection. When the manual trigger is activated, it will pass control (and an empty item, in this case, as triggers often do) to the Mailjet node, causing it to execute its configured action \u2013 sending the email. There isn't any specific data transformation or manipulation needed between these two nodes; it's a straightforward sequential flow. The manual trigger just says \"start,\" and the Mailjet node then performs its action based on its own static configuration." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow starting with a Schedule Trigger that branches to a Set node, a Switch node, and a \"Loop Over Items\" node, where the \"Loop Over Items\" node processes items with a \"Replace Me\" node whose output then feeds back into the \"Loop Over Items\" node.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"rule\": {\"interval\": [{}]}}, \"name\": \"Schedule Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [240, 560]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.set\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 460]}, {\"parameters\": {\"rules\": {\"rules\": [{\"outputKey\": \"a\"}]}}, \"name\": \"Old version Switch Node\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.switch\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [460, 680]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Loop Over Items\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.splitInBatches\", \"typeVersion\": 3, \"position\": [720, 560]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Replace Me\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.noOp\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [900, 560]}], \"connections\": {\"Schedule Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Set\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}, {\"node\": \"Old version Switch Node\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}, {\"node\": \"Loop Over Items\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Loop Over Items\": {\"main\": [null, [{\"node\": \"Replace Me\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Replace Me\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Loop Over Items\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's lay out the plan for this n8n workflow. The user prompt is quite specific, so I'll follow that structure, keeping in mind the provided JSON.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. The prompt explicitly states it needs to start with a Schedule Trigger. This is the perfect choice when you want your workflow to run automatically at certain intervals or specific times, rather than being manually triggered or responding to an external event.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Schedule Trigger** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` and it's `typeVersion 1`. For its configuration, the JSON indicates a basic `rule` with an `interval`. This means it's set up to trigger periodically. I don't need to specify exact times or intervals right now, the default empty configuration usually means it'll run on a basic periodic schedule, which can be adjusted later if a specific cadence is required.\n\nNow, from this Schedule Trigger, the prompt tells me the workflow needs to branch out to three distinct nodes: a Set node, a Switch node, and a \"Loop Over Items\" node. This implies that all three will connect directly from the Schedule Trigger's single output.\n\nLet's take the first branch. I'll add a **Set** node. This node is `n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion 1`. The Set node is incredibly useful for creating new data fields or modifying existing ones. It\u2019s often used at the beginning of a workflow to initialize variables or to inject some default data that subsequent nodes might need. In this specific configuration, the `options` are empty, meaning no specific fields are being set or modified yet. It's essentially a placeholder, passing through the incoming data from the Schedule Trigger without alteration, ready for me to configure it with actual data manipulation later if needed. It connects from the main output of the Schedule Trigger.\n\nNext up, the second branch will go to a Switch node. The JSON refers to it as an \"Old version Switch Node\", and its type is `n8n-nodes-base.switch` with `typeVersion 2`. A Switch node is fundamental for conditional routing in a workflow. It allows me to inspect incoming data and direct the workflow down different paths based on whether certain conditions are met. The `typeVersion 2` suggests it's an older iteration of the node. Its configuration shows `{\"outputKey\": \"a\"}`. This is interesting because typically a Switch node needs a condition to decide which output branch to take. Without a condition explicitly stated in the parameters, and only an `outputKey`, it implies that perhaps it's designed to always route to a specific output 'a' or expects a condition to be defined on the canvas, or it's a legacy behavior. For now, it will simply receive data from the Schedule Trigger.\n\nFinally, for the third branch, I need a \"Loop Over Items\" node. Looking at the JSON, the node named \"Loop Over Items\" is actually of type `n8n-nodes-base.splitInBatches` with `typeVersion 3`. Even though the prompt uses a more descriptive name, `splitInBatches` is a very common n8n node used for iterating over collections of data. It can split a single input item into multiple items (one for each element in an array, for example) or process items in predefined batches. This is crucial for handling lists of things, ensuring that subsequent operations are applied to each individual item. It connects from the main output of the Schedule Trigger.\n\nNow, the prompt specifies what happens *inside* this loop. The \"Loop Over Items\" (Split In Batches) node needs to process items with a \"Replace Me\" node. So, I'll add a **Replace Me** node. This node is of type `n8n-nodes-base.noOp` and `typeVersion 1`. A \"No Operation\" node is a fantastic placeholder. It does absolutely nothing to the data passing through it, making it ideal for when I know a step is needed, but I haven't yet decided on the specific logic or node type. I can always swap it out later for a Code node, an HTTP Request, or any other processing node. The connection from the \"Loop Over Items\" node to this \"Replace Me\" node is from the `Loop Over Items`'s second output (index 1), which is commonly used in `splitInBatches` for the items being processed.\n\nAnd here's the clever part, creating the loop: the output of the \"Replace Me\" node needs to feed *back* into the \"Loop Over Items\" node. This establishes a feedback loop, which is powerful for scenarios where items need to be re-processed, or perhaps updated and then re-evaluated by the looping mechanism. So, the main output of the `Replace Me` node connects back to the main input of the `Loop Over Items` (Split In Batches) node. This connection closes the loop, allowing data processed by \"Replace Me\" to potentially be re-ingested by the looping node for further iteration or collection." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow using UptimeRobot nodes: first, create a monitor for `https:\/\/n8n.io` named \"n8n\"; then, update its friendly name to \"n8n website\"; finally, retrieve the details of this monitor.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"id\": \"={{$json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\", \"resource\": \"monitor\", \"operation\": \"get\"}, \"name\": \"UptimeRobot2\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.uptimeRobot\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [890, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"url\": \"https:\/\/n8n.io\", \"type\": 1, \"resource\": \"monitor\", \"operation\": \"create\", \"friendlyName\": \"n8n\"}, \"name\": \"UptimeRobot\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.uptimeRobot\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [490, 320]}, {\"parameters\": {\"id\": \"={{$json[\\\"id\\\"]}}\", \"resource\": \"monitor\", \"operation\": \"update\", \"updateFields\": {\"friendly_name\": \"n8n website\"}}, \"name\": \"UptimeRobot1\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.uptimeRobot\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [690, 320]}], \"connections\": {\"UptimeRobot\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"UptimeRobot1\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"UptimeRobot1\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"UptimeRobot2\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's break down how I'd approach building this n8n workflow. The user wants to interact with UptimeRobot: first creating a monitor, then updating it, and finally retrieving its details. This clearly indicates a sequence of operations, so I'll need a series of connected nodes.\n\nThe core requirement revolves around UptimeRobot, so immediately I know I'll be using the \"UptimeRobot\" node type from `n8n-nodes-base.uptimeRobot`. Since there are three distinct actions (create, update, get), I'll likely need three instances of this node.\n\nLet's start with the first step: \"create a monitor for `https:\/\/n8n.io` named 'n8n'\".\n\nTo achieve this, I'll add the very first **UptimeRobot** node to my canvas. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.uptimeRobot` and I see its `typeVersion` is 1. This node is perfect because it directly integrates with the UptimeRobot API.\n\nNow, how would I configure it?\n* First, I'd set the `Resource` to \"monitor\" because we're dealing with a website monitor.\n* Next, for the `Operation`, I'd select \"create\" as per the prompt.\n* Then, I need to provide the monitor's details. The prompt specifies the `URL` as `https:\/\/n8n.io`, so that's what I'd put there.\n* The `Type` parameter for a website check is typically \"HTTP(S)\", which corresponds to a numerical value like 1 in UptimeRobot's API.\n* And finally, the `Friendly Name` for this new monitor should be \"n8n\".\n* Of course, for any API call, I'd need to set up credentials for UptimeRobot, which would be linked here generically as \"UptimeRobot API Credentials\".\n\nNow that the monitor is created, the next step in the prompt is to \"update its friendly name to 'n8n website'\". This means I need another UptimeRobot node, and crucially, it needs to know *which* monitor to update. The \"create\" operation from the previous node will output the ID of the newly created monitor, which is exactly what I'll need for the update step.\n\nSo, I'd add a second **UptimeRobot** node, again of type `n8n-nodes-base.uptimeRobot` and `typeVersion` 1. I'll connect the `main` output of my first UptimeRobot node to the `main` input of this new node. This connection ensures that the data from the creation (including the new monitor's ID) flows into this update step.\n\nConfiguring this second node:\n* The `Resource` remains \"monitor\".\n* The `Operation` this time is \"update\".\n* To specify which monitor to update, I'll use the `ID` field. Since the ID is coming from the previous node's output, I'd use an expression like `={{$json[\"id\"]}}`. This dynamically grabs the `id` property from the data that flowed into this node.\n* Then, within the `Update Fields`, I'd specify that I want to change the `friendly_name` to \"n8n website\", matching the prompt.\n* And again, the same \"UptimeRobot API Credentials\" would be linked.\n\nWe're almost there! The final step is to \"retrieve the details of this monitor\". Just like with the update, this operation also needs to know which monitor to get details for, meaning it will again rely on the ID passed along from the previous steps.\n\nSo, I'll add a third **UptimeRobot** node, `n8n-nodes-base.uptimeRobot` with `typeVersion` 1. I'll connect the `main` output of my *second* UptimeRobot node (the update one) to the `main` input of this new node. The update operation also typically returns the monitor's details, including its ID, which is perfect for flowing into this final step.\n\nFor its configuration:\n* The `Resource` is still \"monitor\".\n* The `Operation` for this one is \"get\".\n* Similar to the update, I need to provide the `ID` of the monitor. So, I'd use the same expression: `={{$json[\"id\"]}}` to pull the monitor ID from the incoming data.\n* And of course, the \"UptimeRobot API Credentials\" would be set here too.\n\nThat completes the workflow. Each node builds upon the previous one, passing the critical monitor ID information along the chain to ensure the operations are performed on the correct entity in UptimeRobot. This sequential setup directly maps to the user's requested steps." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger named \"On clicking 'execute'\", which connects to a disabled \"Code\" node containing an intentional `error` keyword in its JavaScript, then connects to another \"Code\" node with valid JavaScript.

That's straightforward. I'll reach for the `Manual Trigger` node. It's the most basic way to kick off a workflow on demand, perfect for testing or for processes that are initiated manually. So, I'll add a node of type `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and set its name to \"On clicking 'execute'\". Looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`, which is the standard and works well here; I don't anticipate any different behavior with other versions for such a fundamental trigger. Its parameters are empty, as expected for a simple manual trigger.\n\nNext, the prompt says this manual trigger \"connects to a disabled 'Code' node containing an intentional `error` keyword in its JavaScript\". This tells me two critical things: the type of node and its specific configuration. I'll need a `Code` node, and it *must* be disabled, and it *must* contain an error.\n\nSo, I'll draw a connection from my \"On clicking 'execute'\" manual trigger node. The target will be a `Code` node. I'll name this node \"Error\" as per the provided JSON, which helps clearly identify its purpose in this specific workflow. For its `jsCode` parameter, I need to include that `error` keyword to simulate an issue. The JSON shows a basic loop that adds a field, and then `error` is just sitting there. This will definitely cause a runtime error, achieving the prompt's requirement. So, the JavaScript will be:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n error\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nAnd critically, this node needs to be disabled. So, I'll set its `disabled` property to `true`. This `Code` node will be `type: n8n-nodes-base.code` with `typeVersion: 1`. Again, for a `Code` node, `typeVersion 1` is pretty standard and defines the expected API for interacting with data (`$input`, `$output`, etc.). I wouldn't expect major behavioral changes regarding the `jsCode` execution itself across typical versions unless n8n introduced entirely new JavaScript engine capabilities or breaking API changes, which isn't the case here.\n\nNow, the prompt then states that this disabled \"Code\" node \"connects to another 'Code' node with valid JavaScript.\" This is an interesting instruction given the preceding disabled node. Normally, if a node is disabled, it won't execute, and thus won't pass data or trigger subsequent nodes unless there's a specific workflow configuration or n8n behavior I'm not immediately considering. However, the JSON *does* show a connection from the disabled \"Error\" node to the next \"Code\" node. This implies that even if disabled, a node *might* still allow a connection to exist and perhaps act as a placeholder in the workflow chain, or simply that the workflow definition allows connections from disabled nodes even if they don't actively pass data during execution. I'll ensure the connection is made as specified.\n\nSo, from the \"Error\" `Code` node, I'll draw another connection. This new node will also be a `Code` node, type `n8n-nodes-base.code` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'll name it \"Code\" as per the JSON. This one, however, needs to contain *valid* JavaScript. The JSON shows the same basic loop but without the `error` keyword:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nThis is perfectly valid JavaScript that processes input items and adds a field. Since the preceding \"Error\" node is disabled, this \"Code\" node would receive its input directly from the `Manual Trigger` node if the workflow execution skips disabled nodes, or it might not receive any input if the disabled node truly breaks the chain. But the connection is explicitly defined, so I'll create it.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies including the tags \"some-tag-1\" and \"some-tag-2\". These are metadata for the entire workflow. I'll add these to the workflow's top-level `tags` array, which helps with organization and filtering within the n8n UI.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the provided JSON and user prompt. The connections are `On clicking 'execute'` to `Error`, and `Error` to `Code`. All nodes are in place, configured, and tagged." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow called 'GetOnboardingFile AI Learning' that triggers via a webhook, fetches the content of the Google Doc at `https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1BgdoHl4YDqsx6DVup1GELA_nEQlGPnQ4FEBYcOzVXvE\/view`, and returns this content as the webhook's response.

We also need to make sure it's named and tagged appropriately for organization.\n\nFirst things first, any workflow that needs to be called from an external system or URL needs a starting point, a listener. The prompt explicitly says \"triggers via a webhook.\" So, my very first node, the entry point, has to be a **Webhook** node.\n\nI'd drop a Webhook node onto the canvas. Looking at the JSON, this node is of `type: n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion: 2`. This is a standard trigger node in n8n. For its configuration, I'd need to set up its `path`. This path is essentially the unique identifier that will form part of the URL where this specific workflow will listen for incoming requests. It's like giving it its own unique address. More importantly for this particular use case, since the workflow needs to *respond* with the content fetched later, I'd set its `responseMode` parameter to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node, \"Hey, don't send an immediate default response; wait for another node down the line to explicitly handle the response.\" This is crucial for controlling what gets sent back.\n\nOkay, so now we have our trigger. The webhook receives a call. What's next? The prompt says \"fetches the content of the Google Doc.\" So, after the webhook triggers, we need to interact with Google Docs. n8n has a dedicated node for Google Docs, which is perfect for this.\n\nI'd add a **Google Docs** node right after the Webhook. I'd connect the `main` output of the Webhook node to the `main` input of the Google Docs node. This ensures that when the webhook is triggered, the execution flow moves directly to the Google Docs node. Checking the JSON, it's `type: n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and `typeVersion: 2`. This node handles all the necessary interactions with the Google Docs API. For its configuration, the primary parameter would be `operation`. Since we're retrieving content, `get` is the logical choice here. Then, critically, I'd need to provide the `documentURL`. This is where the specific Google Doc URL from the prompt (`https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1BgdoHl4YDqsx6DVup1GELA_nEQlGPnQ4FEBYcOzVXvE\/view`) would be configured, so the node knows exactly which document to fetch. Of course, to access Google Docs, proper authentication is required. This would be handled via a `credentials` setup, likely an OAuth2 API credential, which securely links n8n to a Google account with access to the document. The node would then output the document's content, among other details, as part of its JSON output.\n\nSo now we've received the webhook, fetched the Google Doc content. The final step, according to the prompt, is to \"return this content as the webhook's response.\" Since we set the initial Webhook node to `responseMode: responseNode`, we need a specific node to send that response.\n\nThat's where the **Respond to Webhook** node comes in. I'd add this node as the very last step in the workflow, connecting the `main` output of the Google Docs node to the `main` input of the Respond to Webhook node. This ensures that after the Google Docs node successfully retrieves the content, that content is then passed along to this response node. Looking at the JSON, it's `type: n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` and `typeVersion: 1.1`. For its configuration, I need to specify what kind of response we're sending and what its body should be. The prompt implies just the content itself, so setting `respondWith` to `text` seems appropriate. And for the `responseBody`, this is where we'd use an expression to pull the content directly from the output of the previous Google Docs node. Based on the JSON, the expression `={{ $json.content }}` indicates that the Google Docs node outputs the document's content under a property named `content`. This expression dynamically injects that fetched text into the webhook response, sending it back to whoever called the initial webhook.\n\nFinally, beyond the functional nodes, there are some overall workflow settings and metadata to handle. The workflow needs to be named \"GetOnboardingFile AI Learning\" as specified. This name is a top-level property of the workflow. And for organizational purposes, the prompt asks for specific tags: \"AI Onboarding\", \"Day1\", \"Files\", and \"Onboarding\". These tags are stored in the `tags` array in the workflow's JSON, allowing for easy categorization and searching within n8n. Of course, for the workflow to actually run, its `active` status would be set to `true`. And that essentially wraps up the entire workflow design process for this request." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Sample Hello World' that starts with a webhook at the path 'hello-world', sets a string variable named 'message' to \"Hello World from n8n!\", and then responds to the webhook with this message as JSON.

The goal here is pretty straightforward: we need a workflow that listens for a request, crafts a simple message, and then sends that message back. And importantly, it needs to be named 'Sample Hello World' and start off inactive.\n\nSo, where do we begin? The prompt specifically says \"starts with a webhook at the path 'hello-world'\". That's our very first step, our entry point into the workflow. We need something that can listen for incoming HTTP requests.\n\nFor that, the perfect node type is the `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node. This is precisely what n8n uses to create an HTTP endpoint that external systems can call. I'll pick `typeVersion: 1` as it's the standard and most stable version for this core node right now. It provides the fundamental capabilities we need without any advanced features that might be in higher, experimental versions.\n\nOnce I've got that `Webhook` node in place, I need to configure it. The prompt specifies the path: 'hello-world'. So, under its parameters, I'll set the `path` property to \"hello-world\". This means when n8n is running, it will expose an endpoint like `your-n8n-instance-url\/webhook\/hello-world` that we can hit. There aren't any specific options needed for this simple case, so I'll leave the `options` parameter as its default empty object.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, what's next? The prompt says, \"sets a string variable named 'message' to \"Hello World from n8n!\"\". This sounds like we need to create or manipulate some data within the workflow. The data from the `Webhook` node won't inherently contain this specific message; we need to generate it ourselves.\n\nTo achieve this, the `n8n-nodes-base.set` node is an excellent choice. Its purpose is literally to set values or properties on the incoming data items. It's incredibly versatile for adding new fields or modifying existing ones. I'll use `typeVersion: 1` for this node as well, again, it's the standard for basic data manipulation.\n\nI'll connect the `Webhook` node's `main` output to the `Set` node's `main` input. This ensures that any data (like headers, query parameters, or body) received by the webhook is passed along to the `Set` node, even though in this specific case, the `Set` node isn't directly using that input data for its new value, it's just passing it through while adding its own.\n\nNow, configuring the `Set` node. We need to set a *string* variable named 'message'. So, within the `parameters.values` object, I'll go to the `string` array. Here, I'll add an object with `name: \"message\"` and `value: \"Hello World from n8n!\"`. This will create a new field named \"message\" on the item, containing our desired text. Any `options` for this node can also be left as default, as we just want a straightforward set operation.\n\nFinally, the workflow needs to \"respond to the webhook with this message as JSON\". This means we need to take the message we just created and send it back as the response to the original webhook call.\n\nFor this, the `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` node is the perfect fit. Its sole purpose is to send a response back to the request that triggered the workflow via a webhook. I'll stick with `typeVersion: 1` for consistency and stability.\n\nI'll connect the `Set` node's `main` output to the `Respond` node's `main` input. This is crucial because the `Respond` node needs access to the data that contains our newly created 'message' variable.\n\nWhen configuring the `Respond` node, the prompt is clear: respond \"as JSON\". So, I'll set the `respondWith` parameter to \"json\". Then, for the `responseBody`, I need to reference the data coming from the `Set` node. Since the `Set` node adds 'message' as a property directly onto the JSON data it outputs, I can simply use an expression that refers to the entire JSON output of the `Set` node. So, `responseBody` will be `={{ $node[\"Set\"].json }}`. This expression tells n8n to take all the data that came out of the \"Set\" node and use it directly as the JSON body of the response. This ensures that our \"message\" field, which the \"Set\" node added, is included in the response.\n\nAnd that completes the flow. The workflow starts with the `Webhook` listening, then passes control to `Set` to prepare the message, and finally `Respond` sends that message back.\n\nOne last detail from the prompt: \"Ensure the workflow is initially inactive.\" This is a setting at the workflow level, not a node-specific one. So, when the entire workflow is saved, its `active` status will be set to `false`, meaning it won't be running and listening for webhooks until it's manually activated." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow JSON: a manual trigger named 'On clicking 'execute'' connects to a disabled code node 'Error' with an explicit error, which then connects to an enabled code node 'Code' that adds 'myNewField' to input items.

The prompt clearly states \"a manual trigger named 'On clicking 'execute''\". So, the natural choice here is a **Manual Trigger** node. It's perfect for workflows that I want to run on demand, just by clicking an 'Execute Workflow' button in the n8n UI.\n\nI'll add this node. Its `type` will be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and the `typeVersion` is `1`. I'll name it exactly as requested: \"On clicking 'execute'\". This node typically doesn't require any specific parameters beyond its name and position, as its job is simply to provide the initial impulse to the workflow. I'll position it somewhere at the beginning of my visual canvas, say, at `[460, 460]`.\n\nNow, what's next? The prompt mentions \"connects to a disabled code node 'Error' with an explicit error\". This tells me I need a **Code** node. Code nodes are incredibly versatile; they let you write custom JavaScript to manipulate data, perform calculations, or even just explicitly throw errors as requested here.\n\nSo, I'll add a `n8n-nodes-base.code` node with `typeVersion: 1`. I need to name this one \"Error\" as specified. The prompt also says it must be \"disabled,\" which is an important detail. This means its `disabled` property should be set to `true`. This way, even if the workflow tried to run through it, this node would be skipped. I'll place it logically after my trigger, perhaps at `[680, 460]`.\n\nFor the code within this \"Error\" node, the prompt asks for \"an explicit error.\" Looking at the provided JSON, the code is set up to `\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\\n error\\n}\\n\\nreturn $input.all();`. This is clever. It first attempts to add the `myNewField` (though it won't actually persist because of the error and disability) and then explicitly includes the `error` keyword, which will indeed cause a runtime error if the node were enabled and executed. The `return $input.all();` part is standard for returning items, but again, given the `error` and `disabled` state, it's more for structure.\n\nNext, I need to connect the `Manual Trigger` to this `Error` node. The `connections` object will reflect this: `On clicking 'execute'`'s main output will connect to `Error`'s main input.\n\nThe prompt then says this disabled error node \"then connects to an enabled code node 'Code' that adds 'myNewField' to input items.\" So, another **Code** node is required.\n\nI'll add another `n8n-nodes-base.code` node, again `typeVersion: 1`. This one should be named \"Code\" and, importantly, it needs to be `enabled`. So, its `disabled` property will be `false` (or just omitted, as `false` is the default). I'll place it after the \"Error\" node, say at `[900, 460]`.\n\nThe purpose of this \"Code\" node is to add \"myNewField\" to input items. The code for this will be straightforward: `\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\\n}\\n\\nreturn $input.all();`. This iterates through all incoming items and adds a property `myNewField` with a value of `1` to the `json` object of each item, then returns all the modified items. This is a common pattern for enriching data in n8n.\n\nNow for the connections. The \"Error\" node is specified to connect to this \"Code\" node. So, the `Error` node's main output will connect to the `Code` node's main input. Even though \"Error\" is disabled, the connection topology still needs to be defined for the workflow structure.\n\nFinally, the prompt specifies that the workflow needs to include tags: 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2'. These are workflow-level metadata, not tied to a specific node. So, I'll ensure the top-level workflow JSON includes a `tags` array with objects for each of these tags, including their `name` and, if available, `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, and `id` which are typically generated by the n8n system when the tags are first created. These tags help with organization and searchability of workflows within the n8n interface.\n\nThat seems to cover all the requirements: the manual trigger, the disabled error node, the enabled code node that modifies data, and the workflow-level tags, all connected in the specified sequence." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow featuring two trigger nodes: a manual trigger and a scheduled trigger set to run every minute.

It allows us to set up cron expressions or simple time intervals.\n* So, I'll add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger` with `typeVersion: 1.1`.\n* I'll name it \"Start on Schedule.\"\n* To configure it for \"every minute,\" I'll set its 'Rule' parameter to use a 'Cron Expression', and the expression for every minute is `* * * * *`. This is a standard cron syntax that matches any minute, any hour, any day of the month, any month, and any day of the week.\n\nNow that I have my two starting points, both triggers need to feed into the same subsequent step. The prompt states: \"Both triggers should connect to a 'Set' node that adds a 'message' field with the value 'Hello'.\" This tells me what the next logical node is and its purpose.\n\nA `Set` node is ideal for adding, updating, or removing fields from incoming items. It's a clean way to ensure a specific piece of data exists and has a starting value before further processing.\n* I'll add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.set` with `typeVersion: 3.4`.\n* I'll call this node \"Edit Fields\" because it's precisely what it's doing \u2013 manipulating the fields on the data item.\n* For its configuration, under 'Assignments', I need to add a new assignment. The prompt specifies a field named \"message\" with the value \"Hello\" and that it should be a string type.\n * So, I'll set 'Name' to \"message\".\n * 'Value' to \"Hello\".\n * And 'Type' to \"string\".\n* Now, I need to connect both trigger nodes, \"Start Manually\" and \"Start on Schedule,\" to this \"Edit Fields\" (Set) node. Both connections will be from the 'main' output of the triggers to the 'main' input of the \"Edit Fields\" node. This means that whether the workflow starts manually or on schedule, the data flow will converge here, and each incoming item will get the \"message: Hello\" field added.\n\nFinally, the last part of the prompt is: \"which then connects to a 'Code' node that appends ' from code node' to the `message` field.\"\n\nFor custom logic and more complex data manipulation that might not be easily achievable with standard nodes, a `Code` node is the go-to option. It allows us to write JavaScript to process the incoming data items.\n* I'll add a node of `type: n8n-nodes-base.code` with `typeVersion: 2`.\n* A good name for this node would be \"Process The Data\" as it performs a processing step on the data.\n* This node needs to receive the data from the \"Edit Fields\" (Set) node, so I'll connect the 'main' output of \"Edit Fields\" to the 'main' input of \"Process The Data.\"\n* Inside the `Code` node, I need to access the `message` field that was just created by the Set node and append text to it. The standard way to access data from the first incoming item in a Code node is using `$input.first().json`.\n * So, the JavaScript code will look something like this:\n ```javascript\n return {\n \"message\": $input.first().json.message + ' from code node'\n }\n ```\n * This code block explicitly creates a new object with a `message` field. It takes the existing `message` value (which should be \"Hello\" at this point) and concatenates \" from code node\" to it. This new object will then be the output of the `Code` node.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow based on the provided requirements and JSON structure. I've got two triggers feeding into a common data manipulation step (Set node) which then passes the modified data to a final processing step (Code node)." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named \"My workflow\" that starts with a manual trigger.

The user wants a workflow that triggers manually, fetches customer data, and then adds some specific new properties to that data. This immediately tells me I'll need three main components: a trigger, a data source node, and a data manipulation node.\n\nSo, the very first thing I need is how the workflow will start. The prompt explicitly says it \"starts with a manual trigger.\"\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** This is the standard n8n node for a workflow that needs to be initiated by a user clicking a button, typically for testing or one-off runs. Since the prompt specifies \"manual trigger,\" this is the perfect fit. There aren't many parameters for this node, it simply serves to kick off the workflow. I'd drag this onto the canvas and name it something descriptive like \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" which is its default, and works perfectly here. It doesn't need to connect *to* anything, but it will output to the next node.\n\nNext, after the workflow is triggered, it needs to \"retrieve all people with a limit of 10 from the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node.\" This tells me exactly what the next node should be.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** The prompt names the exact node: \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\". This is a specialized node for interacting with a specific training data source within n8n. It's designed to provide sample data for learning purposes, so it's the precise tool for this job. I'd connect the \"When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019\" node's output to the input of this new \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node.\n* **Configuration:** Now, for its parameters. The prompt says \"retrieve all people\" and \"with a limit of 10\".\n * I'd look at the available operations for this node and select `getAllPeople`. This directly matches the requirement.\n * Then, I'd find the `limit` parameter and set its value to `10`. This ensures we only fetch the requested number of items. This node will then output a list of up to 10 customer records.\n\nFinally, the prompt states, \"add an item to the data using a 'Set' node, setting `objectValue.prop1` to the number `123` and `objectValue.prop2` to the string `someText` using dot notation.\" This clearly points to a \"Set\" node for the final step.\n* **Node Type:** `n8n-nodes-base.set`\n* **Type Version:** `1`\n* **Reasoning:** The \"Set\" node is incredibly versatile for modifying, adding, or removing data fields on items as they flow through the workflow. It's perfect for injecting new, static values into the existing data structure. I'll connect the output of the \"Customer Datastore (n8n training)\" node to the input of this \"Set\" node. Each item coming from the datastore will then pass through this \"Set\" node and get the new properties added to it.\n* **Configuration:** This is where the specifics come in.\n * The prompt asks to set `objectValue.prop1` to the number `123`. So, I'd go into the \"Set\" node's parameters, look for adding a new value, and specify that it's a `Number` type. The \"Name\" field would be `objectValue.prop1`, and the \"Value\" would be `123`.\n * Similarly, for `objectValue.prop2` to the string `someText`, I'd add another new value, specifying `String` type. The \"Name\" field would be `objectValue.prop2`, and the \"Value\" would be `someText`.\n * Crucially, the prompt mentions \"using dot notation\". This is a key detail! Without it, the \"Set\" node might try to create a top-level key named \"objectValue.prop1\" rather than nested properties. So, I need to go into the node's \"Options\" and ensure the `Dot Notation` toggle is enabled. This tells the node to interpret `.` in the key names as hierarchical paths, creating the `objectValue` object and then `prop1` and `prop2` within it.\n\nWith these three nodes configured and connected \u2013 Manual Trigger leading to Customer Datastore, and Customer Datastore leading to Set \u2013 the workflow should now precisely meet all the requirements laid out in the prompt." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'GetOnboardingFileVocabulary' that retrieves content from a specific Google Doc for onboarding purposes. It should be triggered by a webhook at `\/PromptEngineering\/Vocabulary` and then return the document's content directly as the webhook response.", "json": "{\"name\": \"GetOnboardingFileVocabulary\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"PromptEngineering\/Vocabulary\", \"responseMode\": \"responseNode\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"get\", \"documentURL\": \"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1kizIBcUwfvWyyrIGqXLbuiMvdWLarCFXHcVpCRgx-Bs\/edit?tab=t.0\"}, \"name\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"respondWith\": \"text\", \"responseBody\": \"={{ $json.content }}\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [440, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Webhook\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Google Docs\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Google Docs\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Respond to Webhook\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's start designing this workflow from the ground up, keeping in mind the user's request and the structure of the provided n8n workflow JSON.\n\nThe first thing I need to establish is how this workflow gets triggered. The prompt explicitly states it should be \"triggered by a webhook at `\/PromptEngineering\/Vocabulary`\". This immediately tells me I need a **Webhook** node. This is the standard entry point for any n8n workflow that needs to respond to an external HTTP request.\n\nSo, I'd drag and drop a **Webhook** node onto the canvas. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and the `typeVersion` is `2`. When configuring it, the most crucial parameter here is the `path`. The prompt specifies `\/PromptEngineering\/Vocabulary`, so I'd set that path in the Webhook node's parameters. This ensures that when an external system sends a request to this specific URL endpoint, this workflow is activated.\n\nNext, I need to consider how the response will be handled. The prompt also says \"then return the document's content directly as the webhook response\". This implies that the Webhook node itself won't directly construct the response. Instead, it will hand off the responsibility to another node later in the workflow. For this, the `responseMode` parameter of the Webhook node should be set to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node to wait for a subsequent \"Respond to Webhook\" node to send the final reply. The `options` field would typically contain any advanced settings, but for a basic trigger, it's often left as default.\n\nNow that the workflow can be triggered, the core task is to \"retrieve content from a specific Google Doc\". To achieve this, I'll need a node that can interact with Google Docs. n8n provides a dedicated **Google Docs** node, which is perfect for this purpose.\n\nI'll connect the output of my Webhook node to the input of the new Google Docs node. This means that once the webhook is received, the workflow will proceed to retrieve the document. The `type` for this node is `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` and its `typeVersion` is `2`.\n\nWhen configuring the Google Docs node, the `operation` parameter is key. Since we need to *retrieve* content, the operation should be set to `get`. This tells the node to fetch the document's details and content. The most important piece of information for this node will be the document itself. A `documentURL` parameter is available where the specific Google Doc's URL would be configured. This is where I'd input the link to the onboarding file. Additionally, this node requires credentials to access Google Docs. This would typically involve setting up an OAuth2 API credential that allows n8n to connect to a Google account with access to the specified document.\n\nAfter the Google Docs node successfully retrieves the document, its output will contain various pieces of information about the document, including its content. The prompt specifies returning \"the document's content directly\". Looking at how such nodes typically output data, the content is often found in a property like `content` or `text`.\n\nFinally, I need to send this content back as the webhook response. Since the initial Webhook node was configured with `responseMode` set to `responseNode`, I need a **Respond to Webhook** node. This node is designed specifically for this purpose: to send a final response back to the client that initiated the webhook.\n\nI'll connect the output of the Google Docs node to the input of the Respond to Webhook node. This ensures that the data containing the document's content is passed along. The `type` of this node is `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` with `typeVersion` `1.1`.\n\nWhen configuring the Respond to Webhook node, I need to specify how the response should be formatted and what data it should contain. The `respondWith` parameter should be set to `text` because the request implies returning the raw content of the document, not a structured JSON object. For the `responseBody`, I'll use an expression to pull the content directly from the output of the previous Google Docs node. Based on typical n8n expressions and the provided JSON's hint, this would be `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression tells the node to take the `content` property from the data that came from the previous node (the Google Docs node) and use that as the response body. Any `options` here would be for things like HTTP status codes or headers, but for a direct text response, the default might suffice.\n\nThis setup creates a clear, linear flow: a webhook triggers the process, a Google Docs node fetches the required content, and a Respond to Webhook node sends that content back to the original caller. Each node plays a specific, essential role in fulfilling the user's request." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a manual trigger.

The request is quite specific, so I'll follow it closely, thinking aloud as I put the pieces together.\n\nFirst off, I need a starting point for this workflow. The prompt clearly states it \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This is perfect for when I want to test or run the workflow ad-hoc, or simply initiate it by clicking a button. So, I'll add a **Manual Trigger** node. This node's type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is `1`. It's suitable because it provides a straightforward way to kick off the workflow when I need to. I'll name it \"On clicking 'execute'\" as per the JSON, which makes its purpose very clear to anyone looking at the workflow. There aren't any specific parameters to configure for a manual trigger; its job is simply to provide a starting item (or items) when executed.\n\nNext, the prompt says it should connect to \"a disabled code node named 'Error' which intentionally includes `error` in its JavaScript\". This is an interesting requirement, likely for demonstrating error handling or a specific workflow path. So, following my manual trigger, I'll add a **Code** node. The node type for this would be `n8n-nodes-base.code`, and its `typeVersion` is also `1`. I'll connect the `main` output of my \"On clicking 'execute'\" manual trigger node to the `main` input of this new Code node. This node needs to be named \"Error\" to clearly indicate its purpose.\n\nNow, for the code within this \"Error\" node. The requirement is for it to intentionally include `error` in its JavaScript. Looking at the JSON, the `jsCode` parameter for this node has a loop that intends to add `myNewField = 1` to each item, but then it just has `error` on a line, followed by returning the input items. This `error` keyword, when not defined or handled, will indeed cause a runtime error, which is exactly what the prompt wants. It's a simple way to simulate a breaking script. A key part of this node is that it needs to be *disabled*. I'll set its `disabled` parameter to `true`. This means that even if the workflow runs, this specific node won't execute its code; it'll essentially be skipped, allowing the workflow to continue to the next node as if this one wasn't there, or perhaps if error handling was in place, it would route around it. But for now, it's just disabled.\n\nAlright, so I have the trigger and the disabled \"Error\" node. What's next? The prompt states it should be \"followed by an enabled code node named 'Code' with similar JavaScript (adding `myNewField = 1` to items) but without the error.\" So, directly after my \"Error\" node, I'll add another **Code** node. Again, this will be of type `n8n-nodes-base.code` and `typeVersion` `1`. I'll connect the `main` output of the \"Error\" node to the `main` input of this new Code node. I'll name this node \"Code\".\n\nFor the JavaScript in this \"Code\" node, it needs to be similar to the \"Error\" node but without the actual error. The JSON shows `jsCode` which loops over input items, adds `item.json.myNewField = 1;`, and then returns `$input.all();`. This is a common pattern in n8n Code nodes: processing each incoming item and returning the modified items. This node is intended to actually perform the data manipulation without crashing, unlike its predecessor. And importantly, this node should be *enabled* by default, which is the standard behavior for nodes unless explicitly disabled.\n\nSo, to summarize the flow: \"On clicking 'execute'\" (Manual Trigger) feeds into \"Error\" (Code node, disabled), which then feeds into \"Code\" (Code node, enabled). The data flow seems logical, passing any initial items from the trigger through the disabled error node (which effectively just passes them through since it's off) to the enabled processing node.\n\nFinally, the prompt mentions adding \"the tags 'some-tag-1' and 'some-tag-2' to the workflow.\" These aren't node-specific properties but rather metadata for the entire workflow. I'll make sure these tags are applied to the workflow definition itself. This is useful for organization and searching for workflows later on, especially in a larger n8n instance. So, I'll include `{\"name\": \"some-tag-1\"}` and `{\"name\": \"some-tag-2\"}` in the `tags` array of the overall workflow JSON structure. The specific `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, and `id` values for these tags would typically be assigned by the n8n system when the tags are first created or applied, but the core requirement is just the names.\n\nThat looks like all the pieces are in place and configured according to the requirements and the provided JSON." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow titled 'My workflow'.

I need to make sure it starts with a manual trigger, then fetches customer data, and finally adds some specific properties to the output using a Set node and dot notation. Let's break this down step by step, imagining I'm building it from scratch.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, a way to be initiated. The prompt specifically asks for a \"manual trigger\". This is perfect because it means I can test the workflow simply by clicking a button in the n8n editor. Looking at the JSON, I see a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This is exactly what I'd choose. I'd drag that onto the canvas. Its name `When clicking \u2018Test workflow\u2019` is automatically assigned by n8n, which is descriptive enough. There are no specific parameters to configure for this node; it just provides a basic starting item to kick off the flow.\n\nNext, the prompt says the manual trigger \"feeds into a 'Customer Datastore' node configured to retrieve all people with a limit of 10.\" This tells me the next step is to interact with some kind of data source, specifically one for customer data. The JSON confirms this with a node of `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.n8nTrainingCustomerDatastore\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This specific node type indicates it's designed to interact with a training customer datastore, which is appropriate for fetching sample data. I'd connect the output of my 'Manual Trigger' node to the input of this 'Customer Datastore' node.\n\nNow, for its configuration. The prompt requires it to \"retrieve all people with a limit of 10.\" Looking at the `parameters` for this 'Customer Datastore' node in the JSON, I see `{\"operation\": \"getAllPeople\", \"limit\": 10}`. This directly matches the requirements. I'd set the 'Operation' field to 'Get All People' to ensure it fetches records, and then I'd specify the 'Limit' option to `10` to control the number of records returned. This is crucial for managing the amount of data processed in subsequent steps.\n\nFinally, the prompt states, \"The output then goes to a 'Set' node that adds 'objectValue.prop1' (number: 123) and 'objectValue.prop2' (string: 'someText') using dot notation.\" So, the data retrieved from the 'Customer Datastore' needs to be enriched. The `Set` node is the ideal choice for this because its primary purpose is to add or modify data fields on incoming items. The JSON confirms this with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.set\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. I'd connect the output of the 'Customer Datastore' node to the input of this 'Set' node.\n\nNow, let's configure this 'Set' node. The prompt specifies adding 'objectValue.prop1' as a number `123` and 'objectValue.prop2' as a string `'someText'`, and explicitly mentions \"using dot notation\". Looking at the JSON's `parameters` for the 'Set' node:\n`\"values\": {\"number\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop1\", \"value\": 123}], \"string\": [{\"name\": \"objectValue.prop2\", \"value\": \"someText\"}]}`.\nThis tells me I need to add two new values. For the first, I'd choose the 'Number' type and set the 'Name' to `objectValue.prop1` and the 'Value' to `123`. For the second, I'd choose the 'String' type, set the 'Name' to `objectValue.prop2` and the 'Value' to `someText`.\nCrucially, the JSON also shows `\"options\": {\"dotNotation\": true}`. This is key. When working with complex objects or nested properties, enabling 'Dot Notation' in the Set node's options tells n8n to interpret names like `objectValue.prop1` as creating a nested object (`objectValue`) and a property within it (`prop1`), rather than a single flat string key. Without this option enabled, it would simply create a top-level property named \"objectValue.prop1\" as a string. So, I would ensure that the 'Dot Notation' option is checked in the Set node's configuration to correctly form the desired nested structure. This ensures that the new data is added precisely as requested, within a new `objectValue` property." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive workflow that, when manually triggered, retrieves and deletes all emails from the 'Promotions' and 'Spam' categories in Gmail.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Clean_out_unwanted_emails_from_Gmail\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [1880, 1160]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"getAll\", \"filters\": {\"labelIds\": [\"CATEGORY_PROMOTIONS\", \"SPAM\"]}}, \"name\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [2100, 1160]}, {\"parameters\": {\"operation\": \"delete\", \"messageId\": \"={{ $json.id }}\"}, \"name\": \"Delete Messages\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.gmail\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [2320, 1160]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Gmail\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Gmail\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Delete Messages\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start designing this workflow step by step, keeping the user's request for an inactive workflow that manually deletes 'Promotions' and 'Spam' emails in Gmail in mind.\n\nFirst things first, the user wants this workflow to be \"manually triggered.\" This immediately tells me what my starting point, or trigger node, needs to be.

Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to start a workflow when a user clicks the 'Execute Workflow' button in the editor or 'Execute' on a running workflow. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters for its basic function, as it simply acts as a 'start' button. I'll place this as my first node, typically on the far left of the canvas.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next step in the user's request is to \"retrieve and delete all emails from the 'Promotions' and 'Spam' categories in Gmail.\" This sounds like a two-part process: first, find the emails, and then, delete them.

I'll connect the `main` output of the 'On clicking 'execute'' node to the `main` input of this new Gmail node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually triggered, it proceeds directly to interact with Gmail.\n\nThis particular Gmail node will be responsible for *retrieving* the emails. So, I'll configure its `operation` parameter to `getAll`. This operation is designed to fetch multiple messages from a Gmail account, which is exactly what we need for cleaning out categories. The `type` for this node is `n8n-nodes-base.gmail`, and its `typeVersion` is `2`. Version 2 might offer updated functionalities or different parameter structures compared to an older version, but for now, it's suitable.\n\nNext, I need to tell this Gmail node *which* emails to retrieve. The user specified 'Promotions' and 'Spam' categories. Looking at the Gmail node's parameters, there's a `filters` section where I can specify `labelIds`. This is perfect! Gmail categories like 'Promotions' and 'Spam' are essentially labels. So, under `filters`, I'll set `labelIds` to an array containing `[\"CATEGORY_PROMOTIONS\", \"SPAM\"]`. These are the specific internal IDs Gmail uses for these categories. This configuration ensures that only messages bearing either of these labels will be pulled into the workflow. For authentication, this node, like any Gmail node interacting with a user's account, will require a credential, typically an OAuth2 credential, to connect to Gmail's API securely.\n\nAlright, so far we can manually start the workflow and retrieve the target emails. The final piece of the puzzle is to \"delete\" these emails. This means I'll need another Gmail node. It's generally good practice to separate the 'get' and 'delete' operations into distinct nodes, even if they use the same service, for clarity and control.\n\nSo, I'll add another **Gmail** node, and I'll call it \"Delete Messages\" to clearly indicate its purpose. This node will connect to the output of the previous 'Gmail' node (the one set to `getAll`). The connection from the first Gmail node's `main` output to this new 'Delete Messages' node's `main` input will pass all the retrieved email data to it. The `type` for this node is also `n8n-nodes-base.gmail`, and its `typeVersion` is `2`, matching the previous Gmail node.\n\nFor this \"Delete Messages\" node, the `operation` parameter will, naturally, be set to `delete`. Now, the crucial part: how does it know *which* messages to delete? The previous 'Gmail' node (the `getAll` one) outputs an item for each email it retrieves. Each of these items will contain various properties of the email, including its unique ID. The `delete` operation on a Gmail node usually takes a `messageId` parameter. So, I'll configure `messageId` to reference the `id` property from the incoming data. This is done using an expression: `={{ $json.id }}`. This tells n8n to take the `id` field from each JSON item it receives from the previous node and use it as the `messageId` for the delete operation. Because the previous node returns multiple items (one for each email found), this \"Delete Messages\" node will automatically iterate over each item and perform the delete operation for every single email ID it receives. Just like the previous Gmail node, this one will also need the same OAuth2 credential to authenticate with the Gmail API.\n\nFinally, looking at the workflow's overall state, the user requested an \"inactive workflow.\" I'll ensure that the workflow's `active` property is set to `false`. This means it won't run on a schedule or automatically; it will only execute when manually triggered, which aligns perfectly with the user's initial prompt.\n\nThis setup creates a clear, sequential flow: trigger, retrieve specific emails, and then delete those specific emails." } { "prompt": "Generate an N8n workflow that manually triggers to read a JSON configuration file from `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json` and convert its binary content to a UTF-8 string.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [240, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"filePath\": \"\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json\", \"dataPropertyName\": \"config\"}, \"name\": \"Read Config File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [420, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {\"encoding\": \"utf8\"}, \"sourceKey\": \"config\"}, \"name\": \"Convert to JSON\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [600, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Read Config File\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Convert to JSON\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Read Config File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start thinking through how we'd build this workflow from scratch, given the user's request to manually trigger, read a JSON config file as binary, and then convert that binary content to a UTF-8 string.\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point, something to kick it off. The user specifically mentioned \"manually triggers.\" So, the very first node we'll need is a trigger that allows for manual execution.\n\n* **Node 1: Trigger**\n * **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`\n * **TypeVersion**: `1`\n * **Reasoning**: This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to start a workflow when a user clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n UI. It doesn't require any external events or schedules, directly fulfilling the \"manually triggers\" requirement. There aren't really any parameters to configure for this node; it just provides that initial pulse to get things going. We'll simply name it something intuitive like \"On clicking 'execute'\" so it's clear what it does.\n\nNow that we have our trigger, the next step in the user's request is to \"read a JSON configuration file from `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json`\" and specifically \"convert its binary content.\" The emphasis on \"binary content\" suggests we shouldn't just read it as a plain text file if we're going to explicitly convert binary. This means we need a node capable of reading a file and, ideally, handling its content in a binary format initially.\n\n* **Node 2: Read File**\n * **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.readBinaryFile`\n * **TypeVersion**: `1`\n * **Reasoning**: While there's a `readFile` node, the `readBinaryFile` node is a more direct fit here because the prompt explicitly mentions converting \"binary content.\" This node is designed to read the raw bytes of a file, which aligns perfectly with the subsequent step of converting binary data.\n * **Connection**: This node needs to execute right after our manual trigger. So, we'll connect the `main` output of \"On clicking 'execute'\" to the `main` input of this new \"Read Config File\" node. Data flow is pretty straightforward here; the trigger just tells this node to run.\n * **Parameters**:\n * `filePath`: This is critical. The user provided the exact path: `\/home\/node\/.n8n\/standup-bot-config.json`. We'll input that directly.\n * `dataPropertyName`: When `readBinaryFile` reads the file, it needs a property name to store the binary data in the n8n item. Naming it something descriptive like \"config\" makes sense, so it's easy to reference in subsequent nodes. This means our item will now have a binary property named `config` containing the file's contents.\n\nOkay, so we've triggered the workflow and successfully read the JSON file into a binary property named `config`. The final part of the user's request is to \"convert its binary content to a UTF-8 string.\" This implies taking that binary data we just read and transforming it into a human-readable text string using a specific encoding.\n\n* **Node 3: Convert Binary Data**\n * **Type**: `n8n-nodes-base.moveBinaryData`\n * **TypeVersion**: `1`\n * **Reasoning**: The `moveBinaryData` node is incredibly versatile for handling binary data within n8n. Despite its name suggesting \"moving,\" it can also perform transformations like encoding and decoding. It's the ideal choice here because it allows us to specify an encoding for the binary data it processes, which is exactly what we need to convert it to a UTF-8 string.\n * **Connection**: This node needs the binary data from the \"Read Config File\" node. So, we'll connect the `main` output of \"Read Config File\" to the `main` input of this \"Convert to JSON\" node. The binary `config` property from the previous node will now be available to this one.\n * **Parameters**:\n * `sourceKey`: This tells the node *which* binary property to act on. From our previous node, we stored the binary file content under the name \"config\". So, we'll set `sourceKey` to `config`.\n * `options.encoding`: This is the crucial part for the conversion. The user explicitly asked for \"UTF-8 string,\" so we'll set the encoding option to `utf8`. This will take the binary content stored in the `config` property, interpret it as a UTF-8 encoded string, and make it accessible as a regular string property in the workflow item. The node effectively converts the binary content *in place* or rather, presents it as a string instead of binary data for further processing.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it! We've got a manual trigger, a node to read the specified file as binary, and a final node to convert that binary content into a UTF-8 string as requested. The connections ensure a linear flow, passing the necessary data from one step to the next." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow that uses a Manual Trigger connected to a Trello node. The Trello node should create a new card with the name 'Hello' and description 'Here are some details', leaving the list ID unspecified.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"name\": \"Hello\", \"listId\": \"\", \"description\": \"Here are some details\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Trello\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.trello\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Trello\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow built from the ground up. I'm thinking about the user's request: a \"Manual Trigger connected to a Trello node\" to \"create a new card with the name 'Hello' and description 'Here are some details', leaving the list ID unspecified.\"\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. Since the user specifically asked for a \"Manual Trigger,\" that's what I'll begin with.\n\nSo, for my first node, I'll add a **Manual Trigger** node.\n* **Node Type:** This will be `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. It's perfect because it allows the user to initiate the workflow simply by clicking an \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n interface. It's a simple, user-driven start.\n* **Type Version:** Looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This is a standard and robust version for a basic trigger like this.\n* **Placement:** I'd put it at the very beginning of my canvas, usually on the left side, as it's the entry point for the workflow's execution flow. The JSON has it at position `[250, 300]`, which is a good starting point.\n* **Configuration:** For a `manualTrigger` node, the `parameters` are typically empty (`{}`). It doesn't need any specific setup; its purpose is simply to kick off the workflow when manually activated.\n\nNow that I have my trigger, I need to connect it to the action that the user wants to perform, which is interacting with Trello.\n\nSo, my next step is to add a **Trello** node.\n* **Node Type:** The request is to create a Trello card, so the `n8n-nodes-base.trello` node is the obvious choice. This node provides all the necessary functionalities to interact with the Trello API.\n* **Type Version:** The JSON specifies `typeVersion: 1`. This indicates a particular iteration of the Trello node's interface and capabilities. For card creation, this version is perfectly adequate.\n* **Connection:** This Trello node needs to run *after* the `manualTrigger`. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the `manualTrigger` to the `main` input of the `Trello` node. This means that when the manual trigger is activated, it will pass control to the Trello node to perform its action. The `connections` section of the JSON confirms this: `\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Trello\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}`.\n* **Placement:** I'll place it to the right of the `manualTrigger` node, signifying the sequence of operations. The JSON puts it at `[450, 300]`, which is right where I'd expect it.\n* **Configuration:** This is where the core logic of the user's request comes in.\n * The prompt asks to \"create a new card.\" In the Trello node, this implies selecting the \"Card\" resource and the \"Create\" operation. Although these aren't explicitly visible in the `parameters` of the provided JSON snippet (they might be default or inferred by the node's `typeVersion` when specific fields like `name` are present), the parameters provided definitely point to a card creation action.\n * I need to set the card's name. The request says \"name 'Hello'\". So, I'll set the `name` parameter to `\"Hello\"`.\n * Next, the card needs a description: \"description 'Here are some details'\". I'll configure the `description` parameter to `\"Here are some details\"`.\n * Finally, the user specified \"leaving the list ID unspecified.\" This means the `listId` parameter should be an empty string, `\"\"`. This tells the Trello node not to target a specific list, potentially letting Trello's API default to the first list on the board or requiring further input if multiple boards are available and no board is specified. It's crucial to leave it blank as requested.\n * The `additionalFields` is an empty object `{}`, meaning no other optional card fields (like due dates, labels, members, etc.) are being set, keeping the card creation simple as per the request.\n* **Credentials:** This node definitely needs access to the Trello API. The JSON shows `\"credentials\": {\"trelloApi\": \"\"}`. This is where I would typically select or create my Trello API credentials (containing an API key and token) so that n8n can authenticate with Trello on my behalf. The empty string here just means no specific credential has been assigned in this template, but one would be required for the workflow to actually run and create a card in Trello.\n\nAnd that completes the setup for this workflow. A simple trigger feeding directly into the Trello card creation." } { "prompt": "Generate an inactive n8n workflow named \"My workflow 2\" that starts with a \"When chat message received\" trigger, connects to a \"Basic LLM Chain\" node, and utilizes an \"Ollama Model\" configured with \"Ollama account 2\" credentials as its language model.", "json": "{\"name\": \"My workflow 2\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"When chat message received\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Basic LLM Chain\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chainLlm\", \"typeVersion\": 1.5, \"position\": [220, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Ollama Model\", \"type\": \"@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmOllama\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [200, 220]}], \"connections\": {\"Ollama Model\": {\"ai_languageModel\": [[{\"node\": \"Basic LLM Chain\", \"type\": \"ai_languageModel\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"When chat message received\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Basic LLM Chain\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, so I'm looking at designing this n8n workflow, and the user prompt gives me a really clear idea of what they're aiming for. First off, they want it named \"My workflow 2\" and importantly, they want it to be inactive initially. That's a good starting point for the overall workflow settings.\n\nNow, diving into the actual nodes. The prompt says it \"starts with a 'When chat message received' trigger.\" That immediately tells me my very first node needs to be a trigger that can listen for incoming chat messages.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding the \"When chat message received\" node. Looking at the JSON, its `type` is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chatTrigger` and its `typeVersion` is 1.1. This is perfect because it's specifically designed to act as a trigger when a chat message comes in, which aligns perfectly with the requirement. It doesn't seem to have any specific parameters configured for its options, which means it would just use its default settings, perhaps listening on a generated webhook URL for incoming messages. This is the entry point for our workflow.\n\nNext, the prompt states this trigger \"connects to a 'Basic LLM Chain' node.\" So, my logical next step is to drag out a \"Basic LLM Chain\" node onto the canvas. From the JSON, I can see its `type` is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.chainLlm` and it's `typeVersion` 1.5. This node is typically used to orchestrate and manage a sequence of operations involving a Language Model. It's a foundational node in many AI-driven workflows.\n\nOnce I have it on the canvas, I need to connect it to the trigger. The JSON shows a `main` connection from \"When chat message received\" to \"Basic LLM Chain.\" This makes perfect sense; the chat message received by the trigger needs to be passed along as input to the `Basic LLM Chain` so it can start processing it. So, I'd draw a line from the trigger's output to the \"Basic LLM Chain\"'s input. The `Basic LLM Chain` node itself doesn't have any specific parameters configured directly on it, which tells me it's likely expecting the language model itself to be provided separately.\n\nAnd that leads me right into the final part of the prompt: \"utilizes an 'Ollama Model' configured with 'Ollama account 2' credentials as its language model.\" This is crucial. The `Basic LLM Chain` needs a language model to do its work. So, I'll need to add an \"Ollama Model\" node. Its `type` is `@n8n\/n8n-nodes-langchain.lmOllama`, and it's `typeVersion` 1. This specific node is designed to integrate with an Ollama instance, allowing us to leverage its local or remote models.\n\nNow, how does this Ollama node connect to the \"Basic LLM Chain\"? It's not a sequential flow connection like the trigger to the chain. Instead, the Ollama node *provides* the language model capability *to* the chain. The JSON confirms this; it shows a connection from the \"Ollama Model\"'s `ai_languageModel` output to the \"Basic LLM Chain\"'s `ai_languageModel` input. This is how you \"inject\" the specific language model configuration into the LLM chain.\n\nFor the \"Ollama Model\" node's configuration, the prompt specifies \"Ollama account 2\" credentials. The JSON confirms this by showing `credentials` pointing to an `ollamaApi` with the name \"Ollama account 2.\" This means that when this node runs, it will use those pre-configured credentials to authenticate and connect to the Ollama service, ensuring it can access the models provided by that specific Ollama instance. No other specific options are set on the Ollama node itself, so it's relying on its defaults and the credentials for connection.\n\nSo, to summarize, we have the \"When chat message received\" trigger starting the workflow, passing the chat message to the \"Basic LLM Chain\" for processing, and the \"Ollama Model\" node is sitting there, providing the actual language model capabilities to that \"Basic LLM Chain\" via a separate, specialized connection. And of course, the entire thing remains inactive as requested." } { "prompt": "Generate a JSON object for an inactive item named 'PostOnboardingJSON new', including current timestamps for `createdAt` and `updatedAt`, a unique `id` and UUID for `versionId`, and `triggerCount` as 0.

When I'm thinking about setting up a new workflow in the system, the first things that come to mind are its fundamental properties. This is like laying down the blueprint before I even start thinking about the actual steps it will perform.\n\nSo, first off, every workflow needs a clear identity. The prompt tells me this one should be named 'PostOnboardingJSON new'. That's straightforward; it goes into the `name` field. This is important for human readability and for quickly finding it in a list.\n\nNext, its operational status. The requirement is for an \"inactive item.\" So, I'll set the `active` property to `false`. This ensures it won't run automatically. It's just a definition at this stage, waiting to be activated once its logic is fully developed and tested.\n\nThen, the unique identifiers. Every workflow needs a unique `id` for internal system tracking. This would typically be system-generated when the workflow is first saved. Similarly, for versioning, a `versionId` is crucial. This helps track specific iterations of the workflow, usually a UUID. Both of these are essential for the system to manage and refer to this specific workflow instance.\n\nTimestamps are also vital for auditing and understanding the workflow's lifecycle. We need `createdAt` and `updatedAt`. These would be populated with the current UTC timestamp at the moment this workflow definition is saved. It gives us a clear record of when it was initially created and when it was last modified.\n\nNow, we get to the core logic of the workflow, which is typically housed within the `nodes` and `connections` properties. This is where the actual automation steps and how they flow into each other are defined. Looking at the requirements and the provided JSON, it's clear that this particular workflow is intended to be a barebones definition at this point. The `nodes` array is empty, and the `connections` object is also empty. This signals to me that this is a placeholder, a new, unconfigured workflow. It's like creating an empty document or an empty project file \u2013 the container exists, but no content has been added yet. So, there are no specific node types to discuss here like a `Start` node or an `HTTP Request` node, because the workflow's functional steps haven't been laid out. It's essentially a blank canvas for future development.\n\nMoving on to general workflow settings, there's `settings`. The JSON specifies `{'executionOrder': 'v1'}`. This is an important global setting that dictates how the workflow engine should process nodes, especially when there might be parallel branches or complex flow control. `v1` typically refers to a specific, defined execution model. This is a deliberate choice for how the workflow will behave at runtime.\n\nFor `staticData` and `meta`, both are set to `null`. `staticData` would typically hold persistent data that needs to be maintained across executions, like a counter or a flag. `null` here indicates that no such data is being used or stored for this workflow. Similarly, `meta` is for any additional, arbitrary metadata associated with the workflow itself. Setting it to `null` means there's no extra metadata attached at this stage.\n\n`pinData` is an empty object `{}`. This usually relates to visual layout information on the canvas, like pinned notes or specific node positions. An empty object means there's no visual layout data to track yet, which makes sense for an empty workflow.\n\nFinally, `triggerCount` is set to `0`. This property tracks how many times the workflow has been successfully triggered and executed. Since this is a new and inactive workflow, a count of zero is perfectly logical \u2013 it hasn't had a chance to run yet. And `tags` is an empty array `[]`. Tags are useful for categorization and organization within a larger collection of workflows. For this new workflow, it simply hasn't been assigned any tags yet.

Let's break this down piece by piece.\n\nFirst things first, for anything that needs to run on a schedule, I immediately think of a trigger node. The request specifies \"runs daily at 9 AM\", which is a classic use case for a time-based trigger. So, I'll need a **Cron** node. Looking at the JSON, it confirms this choice, showing a node with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.cron\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. Perfect. Now, how do I configure it to run at 9 AM? I'd go into its parameters, find the `triggerTimes` setting, and within that, I'd set the `hour` to `9`. This ensures the workflow starts precisely at 9 AM every day.\n\nNext up, once the workflow is triggered, we need to \"fetch the current temperature for Berlin from OpenWeatherMap\". This clearly tells me I need an **OpenWeatherMap** node. It's a dedicated integration for that service, so it's the most straightforward choice. The JSON confirms this with `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.openWeatherMap\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node should connect directly from the output of our Cron node. So, the `Cron` node's `main` output will flow into the `OpenWeatherMap` node's `main` input.\n\nNow, for configuring this OpenWeatherMap node. The prompt specifies \"for Berlin\", so I'll need to set the `cityName` parameter to \"berlin\". This tells the node exactly which city's weather data to retrieve. Of course, to actually use the OpenWeatherMap API, this node will require API credentials to be set up. I'd leave a placeholder for where those credentials would be provided, but the actual values would come from the user's n8n setup. The OpenWeatherMap node is designed to return a structured JSON object containing various weather details, and I'll keep in mind that the temperature will likely be nested within that output, probably under a `main` object.\n\nFinally, after getting the temperature, the goal is to \"send a Gotify notification with the temperature, titled 'Today's Weather Update'\". This points directly to a **Gotify** node. Again, the JSON confirms this, showing `type: \"n8n-nodes-base.gotify\"` and `typeVersion: 1`. This node will connect from the `main` output of the `OpenWeatherMap` node. So, `OpenWeatherMap`'s `main` output will feed into `Gotify`'s `main` input. This ensures that the weather data we just fetched is available for use by the Gotify node.\n\nConfiguring the Gotify node is crucial. The notification needs to include the temperature. This is where expressions come in handy. I'll look at the data output from the `OpenWeatherMap` node, specifically for the temperature value. Based on common OpenWeatherMap responses, I'd expect it under `json.main.temp`. So, for the `message` parameter of the Gotify node, I'll use an expression like `=Hey! The temperature outside is {{$node[\"OpenWeatherMap\"].json[\"main\"][\"temp\"]}}\u00b0C.`. This dynamically inserts the temperature value obtained from the previous node into the message.\n\nAdditionally, the prompt specifies the title should be \"Today's Weather Update\". So, I'll find the `additionalFields` parameter in the Gotify node's settings, and within that, I'll set the `title` to \"Today's Weather Update\". Just like with OpenWeatherMap, this Gotify node will also need its own credentials to connect to the Gotify server, which would be configured separately in n8n.\n\nAnd that pretty much covers it. The Cron node starts it, the OpenWeatherMap node fetches the data, and the Gotify node sends the notification, dynamically pulling the temperature from the preceding step. It's a clean, linear flow designed to achieve the user's requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named \"GetOnboardingFile Designing Efficient Workflows\" that triggers via a webhook at `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/DesigningEfficientWorkflows`.

It says the workflow \"triggers via a webhook.\" So, naturally, the very first node I need to add to my canvas is going to be a Webhook node. It's the entry point for this entire process.\n\nSo, I'll add the **Webhook** node. Looking at the JSON, this is an `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node, specifically `typeVersion 2`. This node is absolutely essential because it listens for incoming HTTP requests, allowing external systems or clients to initiate our workflow.\n\nNow, how do I configure this Webhook node? The prompt specifies a very particular URL path: `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/DesigningEfficientWorkflows`. So, I'll go into the Webhook node's parameters and set the `path` to exactly that string. This defines the specific endpoint where the webhook will listen.\n\nAnother critical setting for the Webhook node is how it handles the response. The prompt says the workflow should \"respond to the webhook with that document's content.\" This tells me I can't just have the Webhook node send a default \"OK\" response immediately. Instead, I need to process information *after* the webhook triggers, and *then* send a custom response. For that, I'd set the `responseMode` parameter to `responseNode`. This tells the Webhook node to wait for a subsequent \"Respond to Webhook\" node to handle the actual HTTP response back to the caller. This setup is perfect for our use case.\n\nOkay, so the webhook is set up. What's the next logical step after the workflow is triggered? The prompt states the workflow \"should retrieve the content from the Google Doc.\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can interact with Google Docs.\n\nSo, the next node I'll add is the **Google Docs** node. From the JSON, I see it's an `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` node, `typeVersion 2`. This node type is perfect because it's designed to perform various operations on Google Docs, which is exactly what we need to do.\n\nNow, for configuring this Google Docs node. The core operation is to \"retrieve\" content. So, I'll set the `operation` parameter to `get`. This tells the node to fetch a document's content. To do that, it needs to know *which* document. The prompt provides a specific Google Doc URL. So, I would configure the `documentURL` parameter with that provided URL. Of course, to access Google Docs, this node will require authentication. I'd need to ensure a Google Docs account credential, likely an OAuth2 one, is properly set up and selected in the node's credentials section.\n\nOnce the Google Docs node is configured, I need to connect it to the Webhook node. The Webhook triggers the workflow, and then the workflow needs to proceed to fetch the document. So, a standard \"main\" connection from the Webhook node to the Google Docs node is the way to go. This simply means that once the webhook is received, the execution flow moves directly to the Google Docs node.\n\nFinally, we've triggered the workflow, and we've successfully retrieved the Google Doc's content. What's the last piece of the puzzle? The prompt explicitly states to \"respond to the webhook with that document's content.\" Since we set the initial Webhook node to `responseNode` mode, we now need a dedicated node to send that response.\n\nThis brings us to the final node: **Respond to Webhook**. This is an `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` node, `typeVersion 1.1`. This node is precisely what's needed to send back a custom response to the waiting webhook caller.\n\nFor its configuration, I need to tell it what kind of response to send and what content to include. Since we're sending back document text, I'd set the `respondWith` parameter to `text`. And then, for the `responseBody`, I need to dynamically inject the content we just fetched from the Google Docs node. The Google Docs `get` operation typically outputs the document's content into a field, often named `content`. So, I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}` for the `responseBody`. This expression tells n8n to take the `content` property from the JSON data that was passed from the previous node (the Google Docs node) and use it as the body of the response.\n\nLastly, I need to connect the Google Docs node to the Respond to Webhook node. The output of the Google Docs node (which includes the document's content) needs to be passed to the Respond to Webhook node so it can construct the response. So, a \"main\" connection from the Google Docs node to the Respond to Webhook node completes the data flow. This ensures the document content is available to the `Respond to Webhook` node for sending back.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. The webhook triggers, the document content is fetched, and then that content is sent back as the webhook's response. It's a straightforward, linear flow for this specific requirement." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow named 'Search DB' that starts with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node.

The prompt is pretty clear about the goal: a workflow named 'Search DB' that starts with a specific trigger and then uses a 'Set' node to define a response field.\n\nFirst off, I need to name this workflow. The prompt specifies \"Search DB\", so that's what it will be called. Good, a clear purpose right from the start.\n\nNow, for the actual nodes. The prompt directly tells me how this workflow should begin: \"starts with an 'Execute Workflow Trigger' node.\" This makes my first choice very straightforward.\n\nI'll add an **Execute Workflow Trigger** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.executeWorkflowTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n* Why this node? It's explicitly requested, and it's a great choice for workflows that are designed to be called by other workflows, or perhaps for testing purposes where you want to manually trigger an execution and pass in some initial data. In this particular case, its primary role is to act as the clear entry point for the workflow as per the requirements.\n* Looking at its parameters, there's nothing specific configured for it here. That's perfectly fine; a basic trigger often doesn't need complex setup unless it's expecting specific input parameters from the calling workflow. It will simply pass an empty item, or perhaps an item with basic execution metadata, to the next node. I'll place it at a reasonable starting position on the canvas, say, `[640, 380]`.\n\nNext, the prompt says, \"It should then use a 'Set' node to create a field named 'response' with the string value '10 results found'.\" This immediately tells me what the very next node needs to be and how it should be connected. The `Execute Workflow Trigger` node's main output should flow directly into this new node.\n\nSo, I'll add a **Set** node.\n* Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.set`, and its `typeVersion` is `3.4`. It's good to note the version, as features or parameter structures can sometimes differ across versions.\n* Why the Set node? This node, often referred to as \"Edit Fields\" in the n8n UI, is ideal for manipulating the data that flows through the workflow. Specifically, it excels at adding new fields, modifying existing ones, or even removing them. Our goal is to create a *new* field named `response`, making the Set node the perfect fit.\n* Now, how do I configure it to achieve the goal? I need to look at its `parameters` block, specifically the `assignments`.\n * Inside `assignments`, there's an array for each field I want to set. In this case, there's just one.\n * The first assignment needs to have a `name` of \"response\". This directly fulfills the requirement.\n * Its `value` needs to be the string \"10 results found\". So I'll input that precisely.\n * The `type` for this assignment is set to \"string\", which is correct as the value is indeed a string.\n * There's also an `id` field for the assignment, which n8n automatically generates for unique identification within the node's configuration.\n * The `options` parameter is empty, meaning no special options like \"Keep Only Set Fields\" or \"Ignore Empty Values\" are enabled, which is fine for simply adding a new field.\n* For placement, I'll put it downstream from the trigger, perhaps at `[860, 380]`, giving it some visual separation from the trigger but keeping it aligned for a clean flow.\n\nFinally, the connection. The `Execute Workflow Trigger` needs to send its output to the `Set` node. So, I'll draw a connection from the `main` output of the `Execute Workflow Trigger` to the `main` input of the `Edit Fields` (Set) node. This ensures that any data (or lack thereof, initially) from the trigger is passed to the Set node, allowing it to then add the 'response' field to that item.\n\nThe workflow's `active` status is `false`, which is typical for a newly designed or imported workflow that hasn't been explicitly activated yet. The `executionOrder` is `v1`, which is standard. Looks like a clean and direct implementation of the prompt's requirements." } { "prompt": "Manually trigger a workflow that reads all data from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"filters\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\"}, \"name\": \"Microsoft Excel\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.microsoftExcel\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [450, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Microsoft Excel\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed from the ground up, keeping that user prompt in mind: \"Manually trigger a workflow that reads all data from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.\"\n\nThe first thing I always consider is how the workflow is going to *start*. The prompt is very clear: \"Manually trigger\". This immediately tells me I need a trigger node that allows for a human initiated start.\n\nSo, my first step would be to add a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the n8n node types, this maps directly to `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`. Its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because its sole purpose is to kick off a workflow when someone clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button within the n8n interface. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters; it simply serves as the starting point. It just emits one item when triggered, allowing the workflow to proceed.\n\nNow that we have the trigger in place, the next logical step is to address the core action described in the prompt: \"reads all data from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.\" This clearly indicates we'll need a node that can interact with Microsoft Excel.\n\nTherefore, the next node I'd bring into the canvas is a **Microsoft Excel** node. This would be of type `n8n-nodes-base.microsoftExcel`, and in this case, its `typeVersion` is also `1`.\n\nOnce I've placed the Microsoft Excel node, I need to think about how it connects to the manual trigger. The manual trigger will output a single item (or an empty item) when executed, which should then flow into the Microsoft Excel node to initiate its operation. So, I'll connect the `main` output of the \"On clicking 'execute'\" (the manual trigger) node to the `main` input of the \"Microsoft Excel\" node. This ensures that when the workflow is manually started, the Excel operation is the very next thing that happens.\n\nNow, let's configure the Microsoft Excel node itself. The prompt specifically asks to \"reads all data\". This translates directly to an operation type within the Microsoft Excel node. I'd look for an operation that means \"get all records\" or \"read all rows\". The JSON confirms this choice, showing the `operation` is set to `\"getAll\"`. This is exactly what we need to pull everything from the spreadsheet.\n\nThe prompt doesn't mention any specific rows, columns, or conditions to filter by. It simply says \"all data.\" This means I don't need to specify any filters. So, I'd leave the `filters` parameter as an empty object `{}`, which is consistent with the provided JSON.\n\nFinally, for the Microsoft Excel node to actually *do* anything, it needs to be able to authenticate with Microsoft Excel. This means providing credentials. In n8n, this is handled via a `credentials` field. The JSON indicates `microsoftExcelOAuth2Api`, which points to an OAuth2 credential for Microsoft Excel. I wouldn't specify the exact credential name like \"ms-oauth-creds\" here in my design; rather, I'd know that a pre-configured Microsoft Excel OAuth2 API credential would need to be selected or set up to allow the node to securely connect to the user's Excel account and access their data. This is a crucial step for any integration node that talks to an external service.\n\nAnd that's it. The manual trigger starts it, and the Excel node reads all the data. Simple, direct, and meets the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that starts with a Manual Trigger node and connects to an OpenThesaurus node, configured to search for the word 'Hallo'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [550, 260]}, {\"parameters\": {\"text\": \"Hallo\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"OpenThesaurus\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.openThesaurus\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [750, 260]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"OpenThesaurus\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow. The request is quite specific: we need a workflow that kicks off with a manual trigger and then uses an OpenThesaurus node to search for \"Hallo\".\n\nFirst things first, every workflow needs a starting point. The prompt clearly states it should \"start with a Manual Trigger node\". That's perfect for when you want to execute a workflow on demand, perhaps for testing, or just when you need to kick it off yourself. So, the very first node I'll put down is going to be a Manual Trigger. Looking at the JSON, it's identified as `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is really straightforward; it doesn't usually need any special configuration or parameters unless you're doing something more advanced like setting specific start items, but for a simple kick-off, the default empty parameters are just fine, as reflected in the JSON's `parameters: {}`. It's named \"On clicking 'execute'\" in the JSON, which is a common default name that makes perfect sense for a manual trigger.\n\nNow that we have our starting point, what's next? The prompt explicitly asks for an \"OpenThesaurus node, configured to search for the word 'Hallo'.\" So, the next logical step is to bring in that OpenThesaurus node. This node is designed specifically for interacting with the OpenThesaurus API, which is exactly what we need to search for synonyms. So, I'll add an `n8n-nodes-base.openThesaurus` node. The JSON shows its `typeVersion` is `1`.\n\nOnce I've got the OpenThesaurus node on the canvas, I need to connect it to the Manual Trigger. The most common and direct way for data (or just the execution signal, in this case) to flow from one node to the next is through a \"main\" connection. So, I'll connect the \"main\" output of the Manual Trigger node to the \"main\" input of the OpenThesaurus node. The JSON confirms this connection: `{\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"OpenThesaurus\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This means when the Manual Trigger is activated, it will pass control to the OpenThesaurus node.\n\nFinally, let's look at the configuration of the OpenThesaurus node. The prompt is very specific: it needs to be \"configured to search for the word 'Hallo'.\" This means the `text` parameter of the OpenThesaurus node is crucial. The JSON sets `parameters: {\"text\": \"Hallo\", \"options\": {}}`. This is exactly what's needed. The `text` field is where you input the word you want to search for, and in our case, it's clearly \"Hallo\". The `options: {}` indicates that no additional, more advanced search options are being used, which keeps the setup simple and focused on the core requirement.\n\nSo, to recap, we've got the Manual Trigger to start things, connected directly to the OpenThesaurus node which is set up to perform the requested search for \"Hallo\". This seems to perfectly align with the user's prompt and the provided JSON structure." } { "prompt": "Create an inactive n8n workflow named \"[UDIA] Bot telegram errores\" that triggers on new Telegram messages using a \"Telegram account\" credential, and then sends a reply to the same chat consisting of \"Eco:\" followed by the original message text.", "json": "{\"name\": \"[UDIA] Bot telegram errores\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"updates\": [\"message\"], \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Telegram Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegramTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1.1, \"position\": [0, 0]}, {\"parameters\": {\"chatId\": \"={{ $json.message.chat.id }}\", \"text\": \"=Eco:{{ $json.message.text }}\", \"additionalFields\": {\"appendAttribution\": false}}, \"name\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.telegram\", \"typeVersion\": 1.2, \"position\": [220, 0]}], \"connections\": {\"Telegram Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Telegram\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this n8n workflow. The goal is pretty straightforward: listen for Telegram messages and echo them back with a prefix.\n\nFirst, I need to consider what kind of event will kick off this workflow. The prompt says \"triggers on new Telegram messages.\" This immediately tells me I'm going to need a trigger node that specifically listens for events from Telegram.\n\nLooking at the available nodes, the `Telegram Trigger` node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.telegramTrigger`) seems like the perfect candidate. It's designed precisely for initiating workflows based on incoming Telegram updates. I'd typically place this as the very first node in the workflow, as it's the entry point. Its typeVersion `1.1` is what I'm seeing, which is standard for current n8n releases for this node. I'll name it \"Telegram Trigger\" to clearly indicate its role.\n\nNow, how do I configure this trigger? It needs to know *what kind* of Telegram updates to listen for. The prompt specifies \"new Telegram messages,\" so within the `parameters` of the `Telegram Trigger` node, I'll need to make sure the `updates` array includes `\"message\"`. This tells the trigger to only fire when a new message comes in, ignoring other types of updates like channel posts or edited messages, which is exactly what we want for an echo bot.\n\nFor authentication, the prompt specifies using a \"Telegram account\" credential. So, under the `credentials` for this `Telegram Trigger` node, I'd link it to an existing `telegramApi` credential, which holds the necessary API token for connecting to Telegram. This is a generic credential reference, so I wouldn't specify any sensitive details here, just that it's connected to a pre-configured account.\n\nAlright, so the trigger is set up to receive messages. What's next? The prompt says, \"then sends a reply to the same chat consisting of 'Eco:' followed by the original message text.\" This means I need an action node that can send messages back to Telegram.\n\nFor sending Telegram messages, the `Telegram` node (type: `n8n-nodes-base.telegram`) is the standard choice. It allows you to perform various actions, including sending text messages, photos, etc. I'll connect the `Telegram Trigger` node's main output to the input of this new `Telegram` node. This ensures that any data received by the trigger is passed along to the action node, which is crucial because I'll need the original message's details. The `typeVersion` is `1.2` for this node. I'll name it simply \"Telegram\" as it's performing the core Telegram interaction.\n\nNow, let's configure this `Telegram` action node.\nFirst, it needs to know *where* to send the message. The prompt states \"to the same chat.\" The data from the incoming message, received by the `Telegram Trigger`, will contain the chat ID. I can access this using an expression within the `chatId` parameter of the `Telegram` node. It's typically found at a path like `{{ $json.message.chat.id }}`. This expression dynamically pulls the chat ID from the incoming message data, ensuring the reply always goes back to the correct conversation.\n\nNext, *what* should be sent? The prompt specifies \"Eco:\" followed by the original message text.\" Again, the original message text will be available from the data passed by the trigger. So, for the `text` parameter in the `Telegram` node, I'll construct an expression that combines a static string with dynamic data: `=Eco:{{ $json.message.text }}`. This prefaces the original message with \"Eco:\", fulfilling the requirement.\n\nThere's also an `appendAttribution` field set to `false`. This is usually a good idea for simple echo bots to keep the reply clean and not add extra n8n branding, which can sometimes be the default for certain Telegram nodes.\n\nSimilar to the trigger node, this action node also needs credentials to send messages. It should use the *same* \"Telegram account\" credential that the trigger node is using, ensuring it operates under the same identity on Telegram. So, I'll link it to the identical `telegramApi` credential.\n\nFinally, the prompt mentions the workflow should be \"inactive\" and named \"[UDIA] Bot telegram errores\". I'd set the overall workflow's `active` property to `false` and its `name` property accordingly. This ensures it's ready but not running automatically until I explicitly activate it.\n\nThat completes the design.

The goal is clear: trigger a workflow with a webhook, fetch content from a specific Google Doc, and then send that content back as the webhook response.\n\nFirst, I need to think about the overall flow. Any workflow that responds to an external event needs a trigger. The prompt explicitly says it should be \"triggered by a webhook,\" so a **Webhook node** is the absolute first thing that comes to mind. It's the entry point.\n\nSo, I'd start by adding a `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` node. Looking at the JSON, it's `typeVersion: 2`, which is a standard, robust version for webhooks.\n\nNow, how should this Webhook node be configured? The prompt specifies the exact webhook path: `onboarding\/n8n\/guide\/DesigningEfficientWorkflows`. So, under the `parameters` for this node, I'd set the `path` to that exact string. This ensures the workflow listens on the correct endpoint.\n\nAnother critical setting for the Webhook node, especially when you want to send a custom response *later* in the workflow, is the `responseMode`. The JSON shows `responseMode: \"responseNode\"`. This is perfect because it tells the Webhook node *not* to immediately send a default success response, but instead to wait for a dedicated \"Respond to Webhook\" node further down the line to handle the reply. This gives us full control over the response body and status.\n\nWith the trigger in place, what's next? The prompt says, \"retrieve content from the Google Doc located at...\" This immediately tells me I need a node that can interact with Google Docs. The obvious choice is the **Google Docs node**.\n\nSo, I'd connect the output of the Webhook node to a new `n8n-nodes-base.googleDocs` node. The JSON uses `typeVersion: 2`.\n\nHow should the Google Docs node be configured? The prompt specifies \"retrieve content,\" which translates directly to an `operation`. I'd choose the `get` operation. This is designed to fetch the content of a document. Then, I'd need to tell it *which* document. The prompt provides the exact URL, so a `documentURL` parameter would be configured with that specific Google Doc link. Of course, interacting with Google Docs requires authentication, so this node would also need to be linked to a pre-configured Google Docs account credential, likely an OAuth2 one.\n\nNow I have the trigger and the document content retrieval. The final step, according to the prompt, is to \"then respond to the webhook with the retrieved document content.\" This means I need a node dedicated to sending a response back to the original webhook call. This is where the **Respond to Webhook node** comes in.\n\nI'd connect the output of the Google Docs node to a new `n8n-nodes-base.respondToWebhook` node. The JSON shows `typeVersion: 1.1`.\n\nFor configuring this node, I need to decide what *type* of content to send back. The prompt says \"retrieved document content.\" The Google Docs node, when performing a 'get' operation, typically outputs the document's content in a field, often named `content`. So, I'd set the `respondWith` parameter to `text` because we just want the plain textual content of the document. Then, for the `responseBody`, I need to dynamically pull that content from the previous node's output. n8n's expressions are perfect for this. I'd use an expression like `={{ $json.content }}`. This expression accesses the data from the previous node (`$json`) and specifically pulls the value of the `content` field that the Google Docs node provided. This ensures that whatever text was fetched from the Google Doc is precisely what gets sent back in the webhook response.\n\nAnd that completes the workflow. The connections flow logically: Webhook triggers -> Google Docs fetches -> Respond to Webhook sends the data back.

The prompt clearly states it needs to be named \"Test workflow 2\". So, I'll start by setting up the basic workflow structure with that name. Also, it's specified that the workflow should be \"inactive\" initially, which is a good practice for any new workflow that's still being built or tested. I'll make sure the `active` flag is set to `false`.\n\nNext, I need to figure out how this workflow will start. The prompt explicitly says it \"starts with a manual trigger.\" This means I'll need a node that allows for initiation directly from the n8n user interface. The perfect node for this is the `manualTrigger` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and typically for basic trigger nodes, `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is ideal because it doesn't require any incoming data and simply produces an output when manually executed, acting as the entry point for the workflow. I don't need to configure any specific parameters for this node; its default behavior is exactly what's required here.\n\nFollowing the manual trigger, the prompt says it \"connects to a code node.\" A `code` node is incredibly powerful for custom logic that isn't covered by a pre-built node. The `type` for this node will be `n8n-nodes-base.code`, and `typeVersion` will be `1`. This choice is excellent for manipulating data in a programmatic way. I'll place it right after the manual trigger, and naturally, I'll connect the main output of the `manualTrigger` node to the main input of this new `code` node. The data flow here is straightforward: whatever minimal item (usually an empty JSON object) the manual trigger produces will be passed to the code node for processing.\n\nNow, for the core logic of the `code` node. The prompt specifies that \"The code node should add a `myNewField` with a value of `1` to the JSON of each input item.\" This means I need to write some JavaScript within the `jsCode` parameter of the `code` node. The standard way to access input items in n8n's code node is through the `$input` variable. I'll need to iterate over all items that the manual trigger might pass to it (even if it's just one default item). So, a `for...of` loop over `$input.all()` is the way to go. Inside the loop, for each `item`, I'll access its `json` property and then simply assign `myNewField` with a value of `1`. So, `item.json.myNewField = 1;`. After modifying all items, it's crucial to return the processed items, so I'll add `return $input.all();` at the end of the script to ensure the modified data is passed on or is available as the workflow's output. This JavaScript effectively transforms the input by enriching each item's JSON structure.\n\nFinally, the prompt also states that \"the workflow should include the tags \"other-tag-1\" and \"other-tag-2\".\" These are top-level workflow properties, not associated with any specific node. I'll add a `tags` array to the workflow definition, with two objects inside it, one for each tag name. The specific IDs or timestamps for these tags aren't something I'd manually configure as a designer; n8n usually handles those automatically when the tags are associated with the workflow. My focus is just on ensuring the `name` properties of the tag objects are correct: \"other-tag-1\" and \"other-tag-2\".\n\nAnd that pretty much covers all the requirements for this workflow. It's a simple, two-node structure, clearly defined for its purpose." } { "prompt": "Generate n8n workflow JSON with a single Webhook node configured with the path `FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`. Include `pinData` simulating a test webhook execution that received a request with standard browser headers, an empty body, and an empty query.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {\"path\": \"FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ\", \"options\": {}}, \"name\": \"Webhook\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.webhook\", \"typeVersion\": 2, \"position\": [360, 220]}], \"connections\": {}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Alright, let's get this workflow designed from the ground up. The goal here is pretty straightforward: we need a single Webhook node configured to listen for incoming requests at a very specific path, and then we need to set up some simulated test data (`pinData`) to ensure it behaves as if a browser sent a request with no body or query parameters.\n\nFirst things first, to kick off any workflow that reacts to an external event, we need a trigger. Given the prompt explicitly mentions a \"Webhook node\" and receiving requests, the choice is clear: we'll start with a Webhook node. This is the cornerstone for any workflow that needs to be initiated by an HTTP call.\n\nSo, I'll go ahead and add a **Webhook node**. Looking at the n8n JSON structure provided, this corresponds to a node of `type`: `n8n-nodes-base.webhook` and `typeVersion`: `2`. This is the standard Webhook node in n8n, designed specifically for listening for HTTP requests. `typeVersion 2` indicates it's a relatively recent and stable version, so I don't anticipate any legacy behavioral quirks that might be present in much older versions. It's the go-to choice for capturing incoming web requests.\n\nNow that we have our Webhook node, we need to configure it. The prompt specifies a very particular path: `FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`. This is a critical piece of information. Inside the node's `parameters`, I'll set the `path` property to `\"FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ\"`. This means our Webhook will only trigger when a request hits the n8n instance at a URL like `http:\/\/your-n8n-instance\/webhook\/FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`. The `options` parameter is empty, which is perfectly fine for this scenario; it means we're not imposing specific HTTP methods (like GET or POST) or authentication on this webhook, making it quite flexible. Its `name` is simply \"Webhook\", which is the default and perfectly descriptive since it's the only node. The `id` and `webhookId` are internal identifiers that n8n assigns, so I wouldn't be manually setting those when I add the node; they'd be generated automatically.\n\nSince the request only asks for a \"single Webhook node,\" there are no further nodes to add or connect. This workflow is essentially just a trigger. Therefore, the `connections` object in the overall workflow JSON will remain empty, `{}`. No data needs to flow from this Webhook to any subsequent nodes because there aren't any.\n\nFinally, the prompt asks to include `pinData` to simulate a test webhook execution. This is incredibly useful for testing the workflow without actually having to send a live HTTP request. The `pinData` section acts like a pre-recorded input for a node. For our \"Webhook\" node, the `pinData` will contain an array of simulated requests. In this case, just one.\n\nInside this simulated request object, we need to mimic a \"standard browser request\":\n* For `headers`, I'll include common ones you'd see from a browser. This includes `connection: \"keep-alive\"`, a detailed `user-agent` string (like `Mozilla\/5.0...Chrome\/129.0.0.0...Safari\/537.36`), `accept: \"*\/*\"`, and typical encoding headers like `accept-encoding: \"gzip, deflate\"`. There's also a `cookie` header present in the provided JSON, which often accompanies browser requests. The specific value here is likely an n8n authentication cookie, which is just an artifact of how the test data was generated, but generally, a `cookie` field would hold browser session data. The `host` would be set to where the webhook is running, like `localhost:5678` for a local setup.\n* The prompt specifies an \"empty body,\" so the `body` property will be an empty object, `{}`. This is typical for GET requests or POST requests that don't send a payload.\n* Similarly, an \"empty query\" is requested, so `query` will also be an empty object, `{}`. This means no URL parameters like `?param=value` were included in the request.\n* `params` is also empty, `{}`, because the webhook path `FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ` is a fixed string and doesn't contain any dynamic parts that would be captured as path parameters.\n* Finally, `webhookUrl` will show the specific URL that was simulated, `http:\/\/localhost:5678\/webhook-test\/FwrbSiaua2Xmvn6-Z-7CQ`, confirming it's for a test execution. And `executionMode: \"test\"` explicitly states this data is for a test run.\n\nThis setup ensures that when we test this workflow, the Webhook node will receive input data that perfectly matches the described browser request, allowing us to build out any subsequent logic assuming that input structure." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow titled 'Create a new customer in Chargebee'. It should manually trigger and then use the Chargebee node to create a customer, including empty fields for `first_name` and `last_name`.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Create a new customer in Chargebee\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"resource\": \"customer\", \"properties\": {\"last_name\": \"\", \"first_name\": \"\"}}, \"name\": \"Chargebee\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.chargebee\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Chargebee\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow. The goal here is pretty clear: we need to create a new customer in Chargebee, and the trigger for this whole process should be manual. We also have specific requirements for the customer's `first_name` and `last_name` \u2013 they need to be empty.\n\nSo, for the very first step, since the prompt specifies a \"manually trigger,\" my mind immediately goes to a node that allows a user to initiate the workflow directly from the n8n interface. The best fit for this is the **Manual Trigger** node.\n\nI'd drag out a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the JSON, its type is `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger`, and its `typeVersion` is `1`. This is perfect for what we need. When I place it down, I see its default name is usually something like \"Start\" or \"Manual Trigger,\" but in this case, it's named \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is a descriptive and clear name for its function. It doesn't require any specific parameters for this simple setup, so I'd leave its configuration empty as it is in the JSON. This node will effectively be the \"start button\" for our workflow.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next logical step is to actually perform the action requested: creating a customer in Chargebee. This means we'll definitely need a **Chargebee** node.\n\nSo, I'd connect the \"On clicking 'execute'\" node to a new **Chargebee** node. Looking at the connections in the JSON, it shows that the `main` output of \"On clicking 'execute'\" goes to the `main` input of the \"Chargebee\" node. This is standard; the trigger simply passes execution flow to the next node.\n\nNow, let's configure this **Chargebee** node. Its type is `n8n-nodes-base.chargebee`, and again, it's `typeVersion: 1`. This node is designed to interact with the Chargebee API. The most critical part here is deciding what \"resource\" we want to work with and what \"operation\" we want to perform. The prompt says \"create a customer,\" which directly translates to using the `customer` resource and typically a \"create\" operation if one is explicitly available, or by setting properties on the customer resource itself.\n\nChecking the JSON, I see `resource: \"customer\"`. This is exactly what we want. We're telling the Chargebee node that we intend to work with customer data.\n\nNext, within the `parameters` of the Chargebee node, there's a `properties` object. This is where we define the specific data fields for the customer we're creating. The prompt explicitly states to include \"empty fields for `first_name` and `last_name`.\" So, within `properties`, I would add `first_name` and set its value to an empty string (`\"\"`), and similarly, `last_name` with an empty string (`\"\"`). This matches the JSON perfectly: `{\"last_name\": \"\", \"first_name\": \"\"}`. This ensures that when the customer is created in Chargebee, those specific fields will be present but without any content.\n\nFinally, for any node that connects to an external service like Chargebee, credentials are required. The JSON shows `credentials: {\"chargebeeApi\": \"\"}`. This means that a Chargebee API credential would need to be configured in n8n and selected here. This credential would contain the necessary API keys or authentication tokens to allow n8n to securely communicate with the Chargebee service. I wouldn't put actual sensitive values directly into the workflow JSON itself, but rather link to an n8n credential.\n\nAnd that pretty much wraps up the design for this workflow. It's a straightforward two-node flow that accomplishes the specific task outlined." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow with a \"Manual Trigger\" node, connected to a disabled \"Code\" node named \"Error\" (which has an intentional `error` line in its JavaScript), which then connects to an enabled \"Code\" node.

The prompt clearly states a \"Manual Trigger\" node is needed. This is usually my go-to choice when I want to initiate a workflow ad-hoc, perhaps for testing, debugging, or simply running it on demand rather than on a schedule or via an external event.\n\nSo, I'd begin by adding a **Manual Trigger** node. Looking at the provided JSON, this node has the `type` of `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` and `typeVersion` 1. The `name` is \"On clicking 'execute'\", which is the default name and works perfectly fine for its purpose. It doesn't require any specific parameters beyond its default configuration, so the `parameters` object for this node is empty. It's essentially a button that kicks off the workflow when clicked.\n\nNext, the prompt specifies a \"disabled 'Code' node named 'Error'\". This is an interesting requirement, as it implies a node that's part of the design but not meant to execute during normal runs. A **Code** node is the ideal choice here because the prompt mentions an intentional `error` line in its JavaScript. Code nodes, specifically `n8n-nodes-base.code` with `typeVersion` 1, are designed for executing custom JavaScript code within the workflow.\n\nI'd place this \"Error\" node directly after the Manual Trigger. The JSON confirms this connection: the `On clicking 'execute'` node's `main` output connects to the `Error` node's `main` input. This establishes the sequential flow.\n\nConfiguring this \"Error\" node, its `name` would be set to \"Error\" as per the prompt. Crucially, its `disabled` parameter would be set to `true`. This means that even though it's connected in the workflow path, the n8n execution engine will skip over it during a live run. This is a common practice for temporarily disabling parts of a workflow or, as in this case, including a node with problematic code without breaking the entire workflow when it runs.\n\nNow, let's look at the JavaScript within this \"Error\" Code node. The `jsCode` parameter contains:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n error\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nThe presence of the un-declared `error` variable on its own line is precisely what would cause a runtime error if this node were enabled and executed. It fulfills the prompt's requirement of an \"intentional `error` line\". Since it's disabled, this error won't actually be thrown during workflow execution, which is the desired behavior for this specific setup.\n\nFinally, the prompt asks for an enabled \"Code\" node that connects after the \"Error\" node. So, I'd add another **Code** node. Again, `n8n-nodes-base.code` with `typeVersion` 1 is the appropriate choice for executing JavaScript.\n\nThis new Code node would be named \"Code\" (a generic but functional name). Unlike the previous one, it's meant to be enabled, so its `disabled` parameter would implicitly be `false` (or simply omitted, as it's `false` by default).\n\nThe connection for this node is defined in the JSON: the `Error` node's `main` output connects to this new `Code` node's `main` input. Even though the \"Error\" node is disabled, the connection still logically flows through it. When the workflow executes, data from the Manual Trigger effectively passes through the disabled \"Error\" node and arrives at this enabled \"Code\" node.\n\nThe JavaScript for this final Code node, as seen in its `jsCode` parameter, is:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nThis is a standard example of a Code node processing input data, adding a `myNewField` property to each item. Notice it *lacks* the `error` line, confirming it's intended to run without issues.\n\nBeyond the nodes and their connections, the prompt also requires specific tags. Tags are a great way to categorize and organize workflows, especially as the number of workflows grows. They make it easier to search and filter workflows within the n8n UI.\n\nI'd add these tags at the workflow level, as part of its metadata. The JSON specifies two tags: `some-tag-1` and `some-tag-2`. These are simply objects within the top-level `tags` array, each with a `name` property. The other properties like `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, and `id` are automatically managed by n8n when the tags are applied. These tags don't affect the workflow's execution logic but are purely for organizational purposes." } { "prompt": "Create a workflow that, when manually executed, fetches all data from WordPress, converts it into a CSV file, and then saves it as 'data.csv'.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Wordpress-to-csv\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [250, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"getAll\", \"returnAll\": true}, \"name\": \"Wordpress\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.wordpress\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [430, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"options\": {}, \"operation\": \"toFile\", \"fileFormat\": \"csv\"}, \"name\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [590, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"fileName\": \"data.csv\"}, \"name\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [740, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Wordpress\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Spreadsheet File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"Spreadsheet File\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Write Binary File\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}, \"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Wordpress\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start conceptualizing this workflow. The user wants to manually kick off a process that grabs data from WordPress, turns it into a CSV, and then saves that CSV as 'data.csv'.\n\nFirst things first, how does this workflow get started? The prompt explicitly mentions \"when manually executed.\" So, I'll need a trigger that allows a user to initiate the workflow with a click. Looking at the available nodes, the `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node is perfect for this. It's straightforward and does exactly what its name suggests: allows for manual execution. I'll add this one first; it's the entry point to our entire process. It's `typeVersion: 1`, which is the current stable version for this basic trigger. Its parameters are typically empty, as it just needs to exist to be clicked.\n\nOnce the workflow is triggered, the next logical step is to \"fetch all data from WordPress.\" For this, n8n has a dedicated WordPress node, which is fantastic because it handles the complexities of the WordPress API for us. So, I'll add a `n8n-nodes-base.wordpress` node right after the manual trigger. This connection will simply pass the activation signal, meaning \"start fetching data.\"\n\nNow, regarding the WordPress node's configuration. The goal is to fetch *all* data. Looking at the node's parameters, there's an `operation` setting. I'll set this to `getAll`. This tells the node we don't just want a single post or a filtered list; we want everything it can provide. Additionally, there's a `returnAll` option, which I'll set to `true`. This is crucial because WordPress APIs often paginate results. Setting `returnAll` to `true` ensures that the node automatically handles fetching all pages of data until everything is retrieved. For credentials, this node would require a WordPress API credential, but for this design, I'll just note that an appropriate API key or authentication details would need to be configured there to allow n8n to connect to the WordPress site. The `typeVersion` for this node is `1`.\n\nSo, we've got the data from WordPress. The next part of the requirement is to \"convert it into a CSV file.\" The WordPress node outputs its data as a collection of JSON objects \u2013 one for each post, page, or whatever entities it fetches. To convert this structured data into a CSV, I need a node that can handle data transformation into file formats. The `n8n-nodes-base.spreadsheetFile` node is ideal here. It's designed specifically for converting structured data (like JSON) into various spreadsheet formats, including CSV. I'll connect the output of the WordPress node to the input of this Spreadsheet File node. The data from WordPress, which is a stream of JSON items, will flow into this node.\n\nConfiguring the `Spreadsheet File` node: I need to make sure it outputs a CSV. So, I'll set the `fileFormat` parameter to `csv`. And since we are converting *to* a file, the `operation` should be `toFile`. The `options` parameter usually remains empty unless specific CSV options like delimiters or headers are needed, but for a general conversion, the defaults are fine. This node also uses `typeVersion: 1`. It's a great choice because it abstracts away the manual parsing and CSV string generation you might have to do with a `Code` or `Function` node, making the workflow much more robust and easier to read.\n\nFinally, the last step is to \"save it as 'data.csv'.\" The `Spreadsheet File` node outputs a binary file, which is exactly what we need. Now, we just need to write that binary data to a file on the n8n host system or a connected file storage. The `n8n-nodes-base.writeBinaryFile` node is purpose-built for this. I'll connect the output of the `Spreadsheet File` node to this `Write Binary File` node. The binary CSV content generated by the `Spreadsheet File` node will be passed directly to this node.\n\nFor the `Write Binary File` node's parameters, the most important one is the `fileName`. The requirement specifies 'data.csv', so I'll set that parameter accordingly. This node also has `typeVersion: 1`. This completes the flow: trigger, fetch, convert, save. It's a clean, linear process that directly addresses all parts of the user's request." } { "prompt": "Create an n8n workflow named 'Test workflow 2' that starts with a manual trigger and connects to a Code node.

The prompt specifies the name as 'Test workflow 2'. So, right away, I'd set the `name` property of the workflow to \"Test workflow 2\". This is the label that will appear in the n8n interface.\n\nNext, I need to consider how this workflow will be initiated. The prompt clearly states, \"starts with a manual trigger\". This immediately tells me which node I need to begin with. I'd search for a trigger node that allows for manual execution.\n\nThe `n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger` node is the perfect choice for this. Its sole purpose is to start a workflow when someone clicks the \"Execute Workflow\" button in the n8n UI. So, I'd add this as my first node. Looking at the provided JSON, it's correctly identified with `{\"name\": \"On clicking 'execute'\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.manualTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [360, 260], \"parameters\": {}}`. The `typeVersion: 1` signifies I'm using the standard, stable version of this node. It doesn't require any specific configuration parameters, which is why its `parameters` object is empty. I'd place it at a typical starting point on the canvas, perhaps slightly to the left, as indicated by its position.\n\nFollowing the manual trigger, the prompt says it \"connects to a Code node\". This is my next step. I need a node that can execute custom JavaScript code to manipulate data.\n\nThe `n8n-nodes-base.code` node is precisely what I need for this. It provides an environment to run JavaScript, which is ideal for custom data transformations that might not be available in other pre-built nodes. So, I'd add this Code node. Its definition in the JSON is `{\"name\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.code\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [580, 260]}`. Again, `typeVersion: 1` is the standard. I'd place it to the right of the manual trigger to visually represent the flow of execution.\n\nNow for the crucial connection between these two nodes. The manual trigger will output an item (even if it's an empty one, it's still an item that passes through), and the Code node needs to receive this item as input. So, I'd draw a connection from the 'main' output of the 'On clicking 'execute'' node to the 'main' input of the 'Code' node. The `connections` object in the JSON confirms this: `\"connections\": {\"On clicking 'execute'\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Code\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}`. This ensures that any data (or lack thereof, initially) from the manual trigger is passed to the Code node for processing.\n\nThe core logic resides within the Code node. The prompt specifies: \"The Code node's JavaScript should add `myNewField: 1` to each input item\". This tells me exactly what code I need to put in the `jsCode` parameter of the Code node.\n\nI'd write a loop to iterate over all the items that the Code node receives as input. In n8n's Code node environment, `$input.all()` gives me an array of all incoming items. For each `item` in this array, I need to access its JSON data structure, which is available via `item.json`. To add the new field, I'd simply assign `1` to `item.json.myNewField`. After processing all items, the Code node needs to return the modified items so they can be passed on to any subsequent nodes in the workflow (though there aren't any in this specific workflow, it's good practice). So, I'd return `$input.all()` again.\n\nThe JavaScript code would look like this:\n```javascript\n\/\/ Loop over input items and add a new field\n\/\/ called 'myNewField' to the JSON of each one\nfor (const item of $input.all()) {\n item.json.myNewField = 1;\n}\n\nreturn $input.all();\n```\nThis code precisely matches the `jsCode` content found in the `parameters` of the Code node in the JSON. This ensures that any item passing through this node will have `myNewField: 1` added to its JSON data. For instance, if an item was `{ \"originalField\": \"value\" }`, it would become `{ \"originalField\": \"value\", \"myNewField\": 1 }`.\n\nFinally, I need to address the workflow's overall status and tags. The prompt states that \"the workflow should be inactive and tagged with 'other-tag-1' and 'other-tag-2'\".\n\nTo set the workflow's status, I'd simply set the `active` property of the workflow to `false`. This means the workflow won't run unless explicitly activated by a user. The JSON confirms this with `\"active\": false`.\n\nFor the tags, I'd add them to the workflow's `tags` array. Tags are a great way to organize and filter workflows in the n8n interface. I'd add two tag objects, each with a `name` property: `{\"name\": \"other-tag-1\"}` and `{\"name\": \"other-tag-2\"}`. The other properties like `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, and `id` are automatically managed by n8n when the tags are applied or created in the system. The JSON shows `{\"tags\": [{\"name\": \"other-tag-1\", ...}, {\"name\": \"other-tag-2\", ...}]}`, confirming these tags are correctly applied.\n\nAnd that completes the design of this n8n workflow based on the requirements." } { "prompt": "Generate an n8n workflow that triggers when an Onfleet task starts and then sends a notification to Discord.", "json": "{\"name\": \"Untitled Workflow\", \"nodes\": [{\"parameters\": {}, \"name\": \"Discord\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.discord\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [680, 300]}, {\"parameters\": {\"triggerOn\": \"taskStarted\", \"additionalFields\": {}}, \"name\": \"Onfleet Trigger\", \"type\": \"n8n-nodes-base.onfleetTrigger\", \"typeVersion\": 1, \"position\": [460, 300]}], \"connections\": {\"Onfleet Trigger\": {\"main\": [[{\"node\": \"Discord\", \"type\": \"main\", \"index\": 0}]]}}, \"active\": false}", "thinking": "Okay, let's start planning this workflow from scratch. The goal is clear: we need to react to an Onfleet task starting and then send a notification to Discord.\n\nThe very first thing any workflow needs is a way to *start* \u2013 a trigger. Since we're dealing with Onfleet tasks, an Onfleet-specific trigger node seems like the most appropriate choice. I wouldn't want to use a generic webhook if n8n has a dedicated integration, because the dedicated one usually handles authentication, parsing, and specific event types much more gracefully.\n\nSo, for our initial node, looking at the JSON, we'd pick an `Onfleet Trigger` node. Its `type` is `n8n-nodes-base.onfleetTrigger` and `typeVersion` is `1`. This node is perfect because it's designed to listen for events directly from Onfleet. It streamlines the process of setting up webhooks and interpreting the incoming data from Onfleet.\n\nNow, how would we configure this `Onfleet Trigger`? The `position` just tells us where it's located visually on the canvas, so that's not a functional configuration. The crucial part is the `parameters`. We see `triggerOn: \"taskStarted\"`. This is exactly what we need! It tells the node to only activate and pass data forward when an Onfleet task *starts*. This is key to meeting the first part of our user's requirement. There are no `additionalFields` specified, which means we're probably fine with the default event details that Onfleet provides for a \"task started\" event.\n\nWe also see a `webhookId`. This is a unique identifier that n8n generates for the webhook it sets up in Onfleet to listen for these events. We wouldn't specify this ourselves; n8n handles its creation. And naturally, for n8n to connect to Onfleet and manage this webhook, it needs credentials. So, an `onfleetApi` credential would be required here, where the necessary API key or other authentication details would be securely stored and linked.\n\nOnce the `Onfleet Trigger` successfully captures a \"task started\" event, it's going to output data about that task \u2013 things like the task ID, driver information, destination, etc. This data will be available for subsequent nodes to use.\n\nNow, what's the next step? The user wants to \"send a notification to Discord.\" So, naturally, we're going to need a Discord node. Looking at the JSON, we see a `Discord` node with `type`: `n8n-nodes-base.discord` and `typeVersion`: `1`. This node is designed specifically for interacting with Discord, so it's the right choice for sending messages.\n\nHow do we connect these two? The `connections` block in the JSON shows that `Onfleet Trigger` has a `main` connection going to the `Discord` node. This is pretty standard; it means the output of the Onfleet Trigger node (the data about the started task) will be fed directly as input to the Discord node.\n\nFor the `Discord` node's configuration, the `parameters` object is empty `{}` in the JSON. This is interesting. In a real-world scenario, for a notification, I'd typically expect to define at least a `message` field, perhaps using expressions to pull details from the incoming Onfleet task data (e.g., `{{$json.id}}` for the task ID, or `{{$json.driver.name}}` for the driver). An empty `parameters` object here could imply a few things: either it's configured to send a very basic, default notification that doesn't require specific message content parameters, or it's expected that a more detailed message would be configured after importing the workflow, dynamically using expressions. For the purpose of this explanation, assuming it's imported as-is, it would send *a* notification, possibly a default or empty one, or one where the content is implicitly handled by the node based on incoming data, though that's less common without explicit expressions. It successfully uses the incoming data to *trigger* the Discord action.\n\nSo, in summary, an Onfleet task starts, the `Onfleet Trigger` node picks up this event thanks to its `triggerOn: \"taskStarted\"` configuration and the webhook it sets up in Onfleet. This node then outputs the task details. This output then flows via a `main` connection into the `Discord` node. The `Discord` node, upon receiving this data, proceeds to send a notification to a configured Discord channel. The content of that notification, while not explicitly detailed in the JSON's `parameters` for the Discord node, would be the final step in completing the user's request." }
