This project serves as a comprehensive, versionable archive of n8n automation workflows, sourced from the official n8n.io/workflows website. It addresses the need for preserving, easily accessing, and reusing workflow templates in a standardized, offline-importable format. The target audience includes n8n users, automation enthusiasts, and developers looking to discover, adapt, or contribute to a vast library of pre-built automation solutions, particularly those leveraging AI. The primary benefit is providing a structured, searchable repository that simplifies workflow management and discovery.

How It Works

The repository organizes each n8n workflow into its own dedicated subfolder. This structure ensures isolation and facilitates versioning. Each workflow folder contains four essential files: workflow.json (the raw, importable workflow data), readme.md (a detailed description), metadata.json (including author, tags, and creation date), and a .webp screenshot for visual reference. This self-contained format allows users to browse, select, and import workflows directly into their n8n instances with minimal friction.

Quick Start & Requirements

Accessing workflows involves browsing the repository or the associated n8nworkflows.xyz website. Workflows can be imported directly into an n8n instance by downloading the workflow.json file from a specific workflow's folder. No specific installation or prerequisites are listed for the repository itself, beyond needing an n8n instance for importing workflows.

Maintenance & Community

This project is presented as a personal initiative ("Made with ❤️ for the n8n community") and is independent, not officially affiliated with n8n. While it links to official n8n community resources, specific maintenance channels or contributor details for n8nworkflows.xyz are not detailed in the README.

Licensing & Compatibility

The archiving code and repository structure are licensed under MIT. However, each archived workflow retains its original license from its source. Users must consult the individual metadata.json files for specific licensing terms applicable to each workflow, which may vary and could impose restrictions on commercial use or redistribution.

Limitations & Caveats

The project is explicitly stated as an independent initiative, not an official n8n product. Users must be diligent in checking the original licenses of individual workflows, as they may differ from the MIT license of the repository's code and structure, potentially impacting commercial adoption or reuse.
