Template description

This workflow is a building block designed to be called from other workflows via an Execute workflow node. When called from another workflow, and given the JSON input of a "pulse" field with the ID to pull from monday, this workflow will return:

  • The items name and ID
  • All column data, indexable by the column name
  • All column data, indexable by the column's ID string
  • All board relation columns, with their data and column values
  • All subitems, with their data and column values

For example:

++Prerequisites++

  • A monday.com account and credential
  • A workflow that needs to get detailed data from a monday.com row
  • The pulse id of the monday.com row to retreive data from.

++Setup++

  • Import the workflow
  • Configure all monday nodes with your credentials and save the workflow
  • Copy the workflow ID from it's URL
  • In a different workflow, add an Edit Fields node, to output the field "pulse", with the monday item you want to retrieve.
  • Feed the Edit Fields node with your pulse into an Execute workflow node, and paste the workflow ID from above into it
    • This "pulse" field will tell the workflow what pulse to retreive. This can be populated by an expression in your workflow
    • There is an example of the Edit Fields and Execute Workflow nodes in the template

Pulling data from services that n8n doesn’t have a pre-built integration for

You still can use the app in a workflow even if we don’t have a node for that or the existing operation for that. With the HTTP Request node, it is possible to call any API point and use the incoming data in your workflow Main use cases: Connect with apps and services that n8n doesn’t have integration with Web scraping How it works This workflow can be divided into three branches, each serving a distinct purpose: 1.Splitting into Items (HTTP Request - Get Mock Albums): The workflow initiates with a manual trigger (On clicking 'execute'). It performs an HTTP request to retrieve mock albums data from "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/albums." The obtained data is split into items using the Item Lists node, facilitating easier management. 2.Data Scraping (HTTP Request - Get Wikipedia Page and HTML Extract): Another branch of the workflow involves fetching a random Wikipedia page using an HTTP request to "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random." The HTML Extract node extracts the article title from the fetched Wikipedia page. 3.Handling Pagination (The final branch deals with handling pagination for a GitHub API request): It sends an HTTP request to "https://api.github.com/users/that-one-tom/starred," with parameters like the page number and items per page dynamically set by the Set node. The workflow uses conditions (If - Are we finished?) to check if there are more pages to retrieve and increments the page number accordingly (Set - Increment Page). This process repeats until all pages are fetched, allowing for comprehensive data retrieval.

Joining different datasets

Task: Merge two datasets into one based on matching rules Why: A powerful capability of n8n is to easily branch out the workflow in order to process different datasets. Even more powerful is the ability to join them back together with SQL-like joining logic. Main use cases: Appending data sets Keep only new items Keep only existing items

Back Up Your n8n Workflows To Github

This workflow will backup your workflows to Github. It uses the public api to export all of the workflow data using the n8n node. It then loops over the data checks in Github to see if a file exists that uses the workflow name. Once checked it will then update the file on Github if it exists, Create a new file if it doesn't exist and if it's the same it will ignore the file. Config Options repo_owner - Github owner repo_name - Github repository name repo_path - Path within the Github repository >This workflow has been updated to use the n8n node and the code node so requires at least version 0.198.0 of n8n
