Create, update, and get a monitor using UptimeRobot

This creates a git backup of the workflows and credentials. It uses the n8n export command with git diff, so you can run as many times as you want, but only when there are changes they will create a commit. Setup You need some access to the server. Create a repository in some remote place to host your project, like Github, Gitlab, or your favorite private repo. Clone the repository in the server in a place that the n8n has access. In the example, it's the ., and the repository name is repo. Change it in the commands and in the workflow commands (you can set it as a variable in the wokflow). Checkout to another branch if you won't use the master one. cd . git clone repository Or you could git init and then add the remote (git remote add origin YOUR_REPO_URL), whatever pleases you more. As the server, check if everything is ok for beeing able to commit. Very likely you'll need to setup the user email and name. Try to create a commit, and push it to upstream, and everything you need (like config a user to comit) will appear in way. I strong suggest testing with exporting the commands to garantee it will work too. cd ./repo git commit -c "Initial commmit" --allow-empty -u is the same as --set-upstream git push -u origin master Testing to push to upstream with the first exported data npx n8n export:workflow --backup --output ./repo/workflows/ npx n8n export:credentials --backup --output repo/credentials/ cd ./repo git add . git commit -c "manual backup: first export" git push After that, if everything is ok, the workflow should work just fine. Adjustments Adjust the path in used in the workflow. See the the git -C PATH command is the same as cd PATH; git .... Also, adjust the cron to run as you need. As I said in the beginning, you can run it even for every minute, but it will create commits only when there are changes. Credentials encryption The default for exporting the credentials is to do them encrypted. You can add the flag --decrypted to the n8n export:credentials command if you need to save them in plain. But as general rule, it's better to save the encryption key, that you only need to do that once, and them export it safely encrypted.

This n8n workflow demonstrates how to build a simple uptime monitoring service using scheduled triggers. Useful for webmasters with a handful of sites who want a cost-effective solution without the need for all the bells and whistles. How it works Scheduled trigger reads a list of website urls in a Google Sheet every 5 minutes Each website url is checked using the HTTP node which determines if the website is either in the UP or DOWN state. An email and Slack message are sent for websites which are in the DOWN state. The Google Sheet is updated with the website's state and a log created. Logs can be used to determine total % of UP and DOWN time over a period. Requirements Google Sheet for storing websites to monitor and their states Gmail for email alerts Slack for channel alerts Customising the workflow Don't use Google Sheets? This can easily be exchanged with Excel or Airtable.

Update the instance_url variable: enter your n8n URL instead of {{$env["N8N_PROTOCOL"]}}://{{$env["N8N_HOST"]}} Create HTML node. Please provide the n8n instance URL instead of {{ $env.WEBHOOK_URL }} 🌟Example: Check out our other workflows: n8n.io/creators/eduard n8n.io/creators/yulia
