Overview
This workflow automates the process of cloning workflows between different n8n instances using the n8n API. It streamlines the migration and duplication of workflows, ensuring consistency and reducing manual effort.
Key Features
- Automated Workflow Retrieval: Fetches existing workflows from the source n8n instance.
- Batch Processing: Utilizes batch operations to handle multiple workflows efficiently.
- Project Assignment: Automatically assigns cloned workflows to specific projects in the destination instance.
- API-Driven Integration: Leverages n8n's API endpoints for GET, POST, and PUT operations.
- Customizable Mapping: Allows for project ID setting and workflow splitting for granular control.
Benefits
- Time Savings: Eliminates repetitive manual export/import tasks, accelerating workflow migration.
- Consistency: Ensures workflows are cloned accurately, reducing human error.
- Scalability: Supports bulk operations, making it suitable for large-scale workflow management.
Use Cases
- Migrating workflows during n8n instance upgrades or infrastructure changes.
- Duplicating standard workflow templates across multiple environments (e.g., dev, staging, prod).
- Centralizing workflow management for distributed teams or organizations.
Integrations & Processes
- n8n API: Core integration for workflow and project management.
- HTTP Requests: Used for communication between source and destination instances.
- Batch & Loop Nodes: Enable efficient processing of multiple workflows.
