Workflow: Snapshot Contabo

How it Works

This workflow automates daily backups (snapshots) of VPS instances hosted on Contabo. Each day at midnight, it checks for existing snapshots and ensures that only the latest backups are retained by removing older ones. It provides a seamless, hands-off backup process to keep your data secure.

Setup Steps

Setting up this workflow is quick, typically taking about 10-15 minutes. The essential part of the setup is providing the necessary credentials, which you can easily retrieve from your Contabo control panel.

  1. Import the Workflow: Download and upload the workflow JSON into n8n.
  2. Configure Credentials: Add CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET, API_USER, and API_PASSWORD in the credential node.
  3. Activate the Workflow: Enable it to run automatically at midnight every day.

Flow Overview

  • Schedule Trigger (00:00 daily): Automatically initiates the workflow.
  • Formatted Date: Prepares a timestamp for naming the snapshot.
  • List Snapshots: Verifies if an existing snapshot is available for each VPS.
  • Conditional Logic:
    • No Snapshot? Proceeds to create a new one.
    • Snapshot Found? Deletes the old snapshot before creating a new one.

Key Points

  • Snapshot Retention: Old snapshots are deleted to ensure only the latest backups are stored.
  • Unique Identifiers: UUIDs are used to track and guarantee unique operations.

Backup n8n workflows to Google Drive

Temporary solution using the undocumented REST API for backups using Google drive. Please note that there are issues with this workflow. It does not support versioning, so please know that it will create multiple copies of the workflows so if you run this daily it will make the folder grow quickly. Once I figure out how to version in Gdrive I'll update it here.

Advanced Telegram Bot, Ticketing System, LiveChat, User Management, Broadcasting

A robust n8n workflow designed to enhance Telegram bot functionality for user management and broadcasting. It facilitates automatic support ticket creation, efficient user data storage in Redis, and a sophisticated system for message forwarding and broadcasting. How It Works Telegram Bot Setup: Initiate the workflow with a Telegram bot configured for handling different chat types (private, supergroup, channel). User Data Management: Formats and updates user data, storing it in a Redis database for efficient retrieval and management. Support Ticket Creation: Automatically generates chat tickets for user messages and saves the corresponding topic IDs in Redis. Message Forwarding: Forwards new messages to the appropriate chat thread, or creates a new thread if none exists. Support Forum Management: Handles messages within a support forum, differentiating between various chat types and user statuses. Broadcasting System: Implements a broadcasting mechanism that sends channel posts to all previous bot users, with a system to filter out blocked users. Blocked User Management: Identifies and manages blocked users, preventing them from receiving broadcasted messages. Versatile Channel Handling: Ensures that messages from verified channels are properly managed and broadcasted to relevant users. Set Up Steps Estimated Time**: Around 30 minutes. Requirements**: A Telegram bot, a Redis database, and Telegram group/channel IDs are necessary. Configuration**: Input the Telegram bot token and relevant group/channel IDs. Configure message handling and user data processing according to your needs. Detailed Instructions**: Sticky notes within the workflow provide extensive setup information and guidance.

Notion AI Assistant Generator

This n8n workflow template lets teams easily generate a custom AI chat assistant based on the schema of any Notion database. Simply provide the Notion database URL, and the workflow downloads the schema and creates a tailored AI assistant designed to interact with that specific database structure. Set Up Watch this quick set up video 👇 Key Features Instant Assistant Generation**: Enter a Notion database URL, and the workflow produces an AI assistant configured to the database schema. Advanced Querying**: The assistant performs flexible queries, filtering records by multiple fields (e.g., tags, names). It can also search inside Notion pages to pull relevant content from specific blocks. Schema Awareness**: Understands and interacts with various Notion column types like text, dates, and tags for accurate responses. Reference Links**: Each query returns direct links to the exact Notion pages that inform the assistant’s response, promoting transparency and easy access. Self-Validation**: The workflow has logic to check the generated assistant, and if any errors are detected, it reruns the agent to fix them. Ideal for Product Managers**: Easily access and query product data across Notion databases. Support Teams**: Quickly search through knowledge bases for precise information to enhance support accuracy. Operations Teams**: Streamline access to HR, finance, or logistics data for fast, efficient retrieval. Data Teams**: Automate large dataset queries across multiple properties and records. How It Works This AI assistant leverages two HTTP request tools—one for querying the Notion database and another for retrieving data within individual pages. It’s powered by the Anthropic LLM (or can be swapped for GPT-4) and always provides reference links for added transparency.

Backup workflows to GitHub

Note: This workflow uses the internal API which is not official. This workflow might break in the future. The workflow executes every night at 23:59. You can configure a different time bin the Cron node. Configure the GitHub nodes with your username, repo name, and the file path. In the HTTP Request nodes (making a request to localhost:5678), create Basic Auth credentials with your n8n instance username and password.

Dynamically generate a webpage from user request using OpenAI Structured Output

This workflow is a experiment to build HTML pages from a user input using the new Structured Output from OpenAI. How it works: Users add what they want to build as a query parameter The OpenAI node generate an interface following a structured output defined in the body The JSON output is then converted to HTML along with a title The HTML is encapsulated in an HTML node (where the Tailwind css script is added) The HTML is rendered to the user via the Webhook response. Set up steps Create an OpenAI API Key Create the OpenAI credentials Use the credentials for both nodes HTTP Request (as Predefined Credential type) and OpenAI Activate your workflow Once active, go to the production URL and add what you'd like to build as the parameter "query" Example: https://production_url.com?query=a%20signup%20form Example of generated page
