Add n8n workflow training datasets (3 formats)
This dataset contains 4,000+ training examples extracted from 6,837 publicly available n8n workflows from the n8n marketplace. The data is designed for fine-tuning Large Language Models to generate n8n workflow configurations from natural language descriptions.
## Dataset Contents
**Three format variations:**
1. **training_data_alpaca.json** - Alpaca format for Llama/Mistral models
- Format: instruction-input-output triplets
- Use case: Fine-tuning with Unsloth, Axolotl, or similar frameworks
2. **training_data_openai.jsonl** - OpenAI format for GPT models
- Format: messages array with system/user/assistant roles
- Use case: OpenAI fine-tuning API
3. **training_data_simple.json** - Simplified format
- Format: Basic instruction-output pairs
- Use case: Custom training pipelines or quick prototyping
## Data Statistics
- Total examples: 4,000+
- Source workflows: 6,837 from n8n marketplace
- Coverage: Diverse workflow types (AI, automation, integrations, data processing)
- Quality: Cleaned, validated, and structured
## Sample Format (Alpaca)
```json
{
"instruction": "Create an n8n workflow for: AI Email Assistant",
"input": "",
"output": {
"name": "AI Email Assistant",
"nodes": [
{"type": "Gmail Trigger"},
{"type": "OpenAI Chat Model"},
{"type": "Gmail"}
],
"node_count": 3,
"categories": ["AI", "Communication"]
}
}
```
## Use Case
This dataset was used to successfully fine-tune Llama 3 8B for n8n workflow generation. The resulting model can generate valid workflow configurations from natural language descriptions.
## Training Results
- Model: Llama 3 8B (4-bit quantized)
- Training time: 55 minutes on A100 GPU
- Final loss: 1.235900
- Inference quality: Production-ready
## Data Collection Methodology
1. Scraped n8n marketplace via public API
2. Extracted workflow metadata and node structures
3. Generated instruction-output pairs
4. Validated JSON structure and data quality
5. Formatted for multiple training frameworks
