Functionality and Use

n8n uses workflows, which consist of individual steps (nodes) that are linked together. Each step performs a specific task, such as retrieving data, processing it, or forwarding it to another system. A workflow is typically triggered by an event such as a schedule, a user action, or an incoming request.

The platform enables users to connect various applications, APIs, and data sources and run processes automatically. Data can be processed, filtered, or forwarded within the workflow. It combines a visual interface with the ability to integrate custom code, allowing for the implementation of both simple and complex automations.

Examples

  • Automatically forward data between tools such as CRM, email and databases
  • Sending notifications when a specific event occurs
  • Sync data between different systems
  • Automatic processing and forwarding of incoming inquiries or forms
