AI-generated

Overview

This node interacts with the Evolution API to fetch a specific workflow from an n8n instance. It is useful for automating the retrieval of workflow details by specifying the instance name and workflow ID. For example, it can be used to programmatically access workflow configurations for monitoring or further processing within an automation pipeline.

Use Case Examples

  1. Fetch a workflow by providing the instance name and workflow ID to retrieve its details for analysis or modification.
  2. Automate the retrieval of workflow metadata from an n8n instance to integrate with other systems or dashboards.

Properties

Name Meaning
Instance Name The name of the n8n instance from which to fetch the workflow.
Workflow ID The unique identifier of the workflow to be fetched from the specified instance.

Output

JSON

  • id - The unique identifier of the fetched workflow.
  • name - The name of the fetched workflow.
  • nodes - The nodes that make up the workflow.
  • connections - The connections between nodes in the workflow.
  • active - The active status of the workflow.

Dependencies

  • Evolution API service
  • An API key credential for authentication

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the instance name and workflow ID are correctly specified; incorrect values will cause the fetch operation to fail.
  • Check that the API credentials are valid and have the necessary permissions to access the workflow.
  • If the operation is unsupported or the function is missing, verify that the node and its dependencies are up to date.
