By n8n TeamCreate a Slack AI chatbot with threads & thinking UI using OpenRouter & Postgres
Overview Slack quietly released an update to their API that allows developers to build "AI Apps & Agents", which is a special classification of apps that have access to several special capabilities including: Multiple simultaneous chat threads with one user Loading "three dots" UI while your agent is thinking Option for users to pin your app to their top bar for quick chat access This workflow demonstrates how to build a Slack agent that takes advantage of all of these features. For a full video walkthrough of this workflow, watch this YouTube tutorial. Setup Instructions All of the below steps are required for this workflow to function properly unless otherwise noted. Create a Slack App Visit api.slack.com and click "Your Apps" Create a new app from scratch and follow the setup instructions In the Agents & AI Apps tab, enable the toggle and give your app a brief description In the OAuth & Permissions tab, enable the following bot token scopes: assistant:write chat:write channels:read im:history Install the app into your workspace and grant the requested permissions In your Slack workspace, right click your app's name in the sidebar, click "View app details", and make note of your apps Channel ID - you'll need this later. Copy your app's Bot User OAuth Token - you'll need that to create your n8n credentials In the Event Subscriptions tab, enable events and paste the workflows PRODUCTION webhook url (from this workflow's trigger node) into the input. In the same tab under "Susbcribe to bot events", select message.im Create a Postgres database In order to save the chat history and give your agent a working memory, you'll need your own Postgres database. You can use Supabase, Neon, or any other Postgres database provider. Once you've added your database's credentials to n8n, you can select those credentials in the Postgres Chat Memory node. This worklow saves all chat history in a table called chat_histories, but you name the table whatever you want. Create n8n Credentials You'll need to create the following credentials: Slack API. Use your Bot User OAuth Token referenced above. Bearer Auth. Use the same Bot User OAuth Token. Postgres. Use the connection string or config from your database provider. OpenRouter (or any other LLM model for the agent's model node) Wire Everything Up Now that you've created your Slack app, have your Postgres database, and have created credentials, follow these steps to wire up your workflow: In the "On Message Received" trigger, use your Slack API credential and enter your apps Channel ID in the "Channel To Watch" field. In the "Set Thinking Status" node, use your Bearer Auth credential. In the "Postgres Chat Memory" node, use your Postgres credential. In the "Send Reply" node, use your Slack API credential. Using the Chatbot Once you've completed the setup process and added in your credentials, you'll have a fully functional Slack chatbot complete with threads, loading UI, and the ability to pin your app to your workspace's top bar. Taking the Next Steps Now that this skeleton app is in place, it's up to you to add horsepower to the AI agent at the center of it all. Customize the prompts and add whatever tools you'd like. The sky is the limit! If you have any questions or feedback about this workflow, or would like me to build custom workflows for your business, email me at n8n@paperjam.agency.

By David AshbyPattern for multiple triggers combined to continue workflow
Overview This template describes a possible approach to handle a pseudo-callback/trigger from an independent, external process (initiated from a workflow) and combine the received input with the workflow execution that is already in progress. This requires the external system to pass through some context information (resumeUrl), but allows the "primary" workflow execution to continue with BOTH its own (previous-node) context, AND the input received in the "secondary" trigger/process. Primary Workflow Trigger/Execution The workflow path from the primary trigger initiates some external, independent process and provides "context" which includes the value of $execution.resumeUrl. This execution then reaches a Wait node configured with Resume - On Webhook Call and stops until a call to resumeUrl is received. External, Independent Process The external, independent process could be anything like a Telegram conversation, or a web-service as long as: it results in a single execution of the Secondary Workflow Trigger, and it can pass through the value of resumeUrl associated with the Primary Workflow Execution Secondary Workflow Trigger/Execution The secondary workflow execution can start with any kind of trigger as long as part of the input can include the resumeUrl. To combine / rejoin the primary workflow execution, this execution passes along whatever it receives from its trigger input to the resume-webhook endpoint on the Wait node. Notes IMPORTANT: The workflow ids in the Set nodes marked Update Me have embedded references to the workflow IDs in the original system. They will need to be CHANGED to make this demo work. Note: The Resume Other Workflow Execution node in the template uses the $env.WEBHOOK_URL configuration to convert to an internal "localhost" call in a Docker environment. This can be done differently. ALERT: This pattern is NOT suitable for a workflow that handles multiple items because the first workflow execution will only be waiting for one callback. The second workflow (not the second trigger in the first workflow) is just to demonstrate how the Independent, External Process needs to work.

By David OlusolaCalendly to KlickTipp integration
Community Node Disclaimer: This workflow uses KlickTipp community nodes. How It Works Enhanced Calendly Integration: This workflow processes bookings and cancellations in Calendly, dynamically managing invitee and guest data with KlickTipp. Data Transformation: Dates and times are converted into formats (UNIX timestamps) compatible with KlickTipp’s API, ensuring seamless data integration. Key Features Calendly Trigger: Captures new bookings or cancellations of events, including participant details. Invitee and Guest Subscription in KlickTipp: Adds or updates invitees and guests in KlickTipp based on booking details (event name, time, join link, reschedule link, cancel link, etc.). Tracks and processes cancellations for both invitees and guests. Handles rescheduling intelligently to avoid redundant operations. Guest-Specific Operations: Processes guests individually for bookings and cancellations using dynamic arrays of email addresses. Recovers guest data from invitee records for cancellations since Calendly does not provide guest data upon cancellation. Data Processing: Standardizes and validates input fields Converts phone numbers to numeric-only format with international prefixes. Transforms dates into UNIX timestamps. Reads out the name of the invitee based on both possible input fields for name (name vs. firstname and lastname field setup). Error Handling: Validates critical fields like phone numbers, URLs, and dates to prevent incorrect data submissions. Setup Instructions Authentication: Set up the Calendly and KlickTipp nodes in your n8n instance. Configure authentication for both Calendly and KlickTipp nodes. Custom Field Preparation in KlickTipp: Create the following custom fields in KlickTipp to align with workflow requirements: | Field Name | Field Type | |---------------------------------------|------------------| | Calendly \| event name | Text | | Calendly \| join url | URL | | Calendly \| reschedule url | URL | | Calendly \| cancel url | URL | | Calendly \| event start datetime | Date & Time | | Calendly \| event end datetime | Date & Time | | Calendly \| invitee start date | Date | | Calendly \| invitee end date | Date | | Calendly \| invitee start time | Time | | Calendly \| invitee end time | Time | | Calendly \| invitee timezone | Text | | Calendly \| invitee guests addresses | Text | After creating fields, allow 10-15 minutes for them to sync. If fields don’t appear, reconnect your KlickTipp credentials. Field Mapping and Adjustments: Open each KlickTipp node and map fields to match your setup. The workflow includes placeholders for: Invitee details (first name, last name, email, and phone). Event details (start/end times, timezone, etc.). Workflow Logic Trigger via Calendly event Booking: A new form event booking or cancellation from Calendly initiates the workflow Data Transformation: Processes raw Calendly event data to ensure compatibility with KlickTipp’s API. Add to KlickTipp Subscriber List: Adds invitees and guests to the designated KlickTipp list, including event-specific details. Benefits Efficient lead generation: Contacts from event bookings are automatically imported into KlickTipp and can be used immediately, saving time and increasing the conversion rate.

By KlickTippFamily assistant: Schedule, meal & routine management with Email & Telegram
The FamilyFlow Assistant is your n8n-powered 🚀 companion designed to streamline daily parenting tasks, reduce mental load, and bring a bit more organization and fun into your family life. This versatile workflow automates reminders, generates helpful ideas, and provides gentle nudges to keep your household running smoothly. Why FamilyFlow Assistant? 🤔 ---------------------------- Parenting is a demanding (and rewarding!) job. Juggling schedules, meals, routines, and remembering everything can be overwhelming. FamilyFlow Assistant aims to: Reduce Mental Clutter: Offload common reminders and to-dos to an automated system. Enhance Organization: Keep track of activities, appointments, and important checks. Spark Joy & Creativity: Generate meal ideas, story starters, and positive thoughts. Promote Routine: Help establish and maintain consistent morning and evening routines. Save Time: Automate repetitive prompts and checks, freeing you up for what matters most. Core Features & Automations 🧩 ------------------------------ This workflow bundle comes packed with several independent yet complementary automations: 📅 Daily & Weekly Organization: Activity & Appointment Reminders: Get a daily heads-up on scheduled events for the family. Morning Routine Checklist: Start the day right with a friendly checklist for kids (or parents!). Bedtime Routine Nudge: A gentle reminder to begin the wind-down process. Evening “Did You Remember?” Scan: A quick mental checklist for common end-of-day to-dos. Weekly “Plan Ahead” Prompt: A Sunday reminder to review the upcoming week. School/Daycare Comms Check: Prompts to check for important updates. 💡 Inspiration & Well-being: Meal Idea Generator: Never wonder “what’s for dinner?” again (or at least, less often!). Positive Thought / Fun Fact Sender: A little daily dose of brightness. Story Starter / Quick Activity Prompt: Spark imagination or a quick family interaction. Weekly Wins & Gratitude Reminder: Encourage reflection on positive moments. ⏱️ Optional Helpers: Screen Time Break Reminder: (Disabled by default) A nudge for offline time. Getting Started: Setup & Customization 🛠️ ------------------------------------------ Make FamilyFlow Assistant truly yours with these simple steps: Import the Workflow: Add the provided .json file to your n8n instance. Configure Credentials: Email: Set up your preferred email sending credential (e.g., SMTP, Gmail) in all “Email Send” nodes. You’ll likely use the same one for all. Personalize Content (Crucial!): Email Addresses: Update parents@example.com to your actual email(s) in all Email nodes. Schedules & Activities: Edit the “Define Daily Schedules” (Set node) with your family’s actual events. Meal Ideas: Customize the mealIdeas array in the “Generate Meal Idea” (Function node). Checklists & Prompts: Tailor the text/HTML in Email nodes for morning/bedtime routines, check-ins, story starters, etc., to fit your family’s style. Positive Thoughts/Facts: Update the lists in the “Get Positive Thought/Fact” (Function node). Adjust Triggers (Cron Nodes): Modify the “Rule” in each Cron node to set the exact time and frequency for each automation. Activate Automations: The main workflow and most automations are inactive by default. Toggle the “Active” switch ON for the entire workflow or for individual automations/nodes you wish to use. Remember, the “Screen Time Break Reminder” is disabled by default; enable its Email node if desired. How Each Automation Works (Briefly) ⚙️ -------------------------------------- Each automation generally follows this pattern: TRIGGER: An event starts the flow (e.g., a scheduled time via Cron). PROCESS: Data is defined (e.g., list of activities, meal ideas) or generated (e.g., a random selection, a formatted message). RESPOND: An action is taken, typically sending an email with the relevant information or reminder. For instance, the “Daily Activity Reminder” uses a Cron trigger, a Set node to hold your schedule, a Function node to filter for today’s events, an IF node to check if there are any, and finally an Email node to send the reminder. Expanding Your Assistant 🚀 --------------------------- FamilyFlow Assistant is a great starting point. Consider these ideas to extend its capabilities: Integrate Calendars: Connect to Google Calendar or Outlook Calendar to fetch events dynamically. Use Different Notifiers: Send messages via Telegram, WhatsApp, Slack, or push notifications. Smart Home Integration: If you have smart home devices, trigger lights or announcements for routines. Shared To-Do Lists: Update a shared Todoist or Microsoft To Do list. Interactive Input: Use n8n forms or Telegram commands to add events or trigger specific actions. Requirements 📋 --------------- An active n8n instance (self-hosted or cloud). Email sending credentials configured in n8n. A little time to customize the content to perfectly match your family’s needs! Embrace the flow and let your FamilyFlow Assistant help make parenting a little smoother!
