Discord AI-powered bot
This workflow is a template example for making Discord GPT-powered bots. Incoming user requests are analysed and categorised via OpenAI node with the help of a hand-crafted prompt. The response message is then routed to a different Discord channel.
n8n AI-Powered Discord Bot
This n8n workflow creates an AI-powered bot that responds to specific commands in a Discord channel. It listens for messages, filters them based on a command, and then uses OpenAI to generate a response which is posted back to Discord.
What it does
This workflow automates the following steps:
- Listens for Discord Messages: It acts as a webhook listener, waiting for incoming messages from a configured Discord channel.
- Filters Messages: It checks if the incoming Discord message contains a specific command (e.g.,
/ask). - Processes AI Request: If the command is present, it extracts the user's query and sends it to OpenAI for processing.
- Generates AI Response: OpenAI generates a relevant response based on the query.
- Posts Response to Discord: The generated AI response is then sent back to the Discord channel where the original command was issued.
Prerequisites/Requirements
To use this workflow, you will need:
- n8n Instance: A running instance of n8n.
- Discord Account & Bot: A Discord account and a Discord bot configured with a webhook URL.
- OpenAI API Key: An OpenAI account with an active API key.
Setup/Usage
- Import the Workflow: Import the provided JSON into your n8n instance.
- Configure Discord Webhook:
- In the "Webhook" node, set the
HTTP MethodtoPOST. - Copy the generated
Webhook URLfrom this node. - In your Discord server, create a webhook for the channel you want the bot to operate in and paste the n8n Webhook URL there.
- In the "Webhook" node, set the
- Configure Discord Node:

- Set the
Channel IDto the ID of the Discord channel where the bot will post responses.
- Configure OpenAI Node:
- In the "OpenAI" node, select or create your OpenAI API credential.
- Configure the
ModelandPromptas desired. The prompt should likely include the message content from Discord.
- Configure Switch Node:
- The "Switch" node is used to filter messages. Configure its condition to check for your desired command (e.g.,
{{$json.body.content.startsWith('/ask')}}).
- The "Switch" node is used to filter messages. Configure its condition to check for your desired command (e.g.,
- Activate the Workflow: Save and activate the workflow.
Once activated, the bot will be live in your Discord channel, ready to respond to your AI-powered queries!

Two-way property repair management system with Google Sheets & Drive
This workflow automates the repair request process between tenants and building managers, keeping all updates organized in a single spreadsheet. It is composed of two coordinated workflows, as two separate triggers are required — one for new repair submissions and another for repair updates. A Unique Unit ID that corresponds to individual units is attributed to each request, and timestamps are used to coordinate repair updates with specific requests. General use cases include: Property managers who manage multiple buildings or units. Building owners looking to centralize tenant repair communication. Automation builders who want to learn multi-trigger workflow design in n8n. --- ⚙️ How It Works Workflow 1 – New Repair Requests Behind the Scenes: A tenant fills out a Google Form (“Repair Request Form”), which automatically adds a new row to a linked Google Sheet. Steps: Trigger: Google Sheets rowAdded – runs when a new form entry appears. Extract & Format: Collects all relevant form data (address, unit, urgency, contacts). Generate Unit ID: Creates a standardized identifier (e.g., BUILDING-UNIT) for tracking. Email Notification: Sends the building manager a formatted email summarizing the repair details and including a link to a Repair Update Form (which activates Workflow 2). --- Workflow 2 – Repair Updates Behind the Scenes:\ Triggered when the building manager submits a follow-up form (“Repair Update Form”). Steps: Lookup by UUID: Uses the Unit ID from Workflow 1 to find the existing row in the Google Sheet. Conditional Logic: If photos are uploaded: Saves each image to a Google Drive folder, renames files consistently, and adds URLs to the sheet. If no photos: Skips the upload step and processes textual updates only. Merge & Update: Combines new data with existing repair info in the same spreadsheet row — enabling a full repair history in one place. --- 🧩 Requirements Google Account (for Forms, Sheets, and Drive) Gmail/email node connected for sending notifications n8n credentials configured for Google API access --- ⚡ Setup Instructions (see more detail in workflow) Import both workflows into n8n, then copy one into a second workflow. Change manual trigger in workflow 2 to a n8n Form node. Connect Google credentials to all nodes. Update spreadsheet and folder IDs in the corresponding nodes. Customize email text, sender name, and form links for your organization. Test each workflow with a sample repair request and a repair update submission. --- 🛠️ Customization Ideas Add Slack or Telegram notifications for urgent repairs. Auto-create folders per building or unit for photo uploads. Generate monthly repair summaries using Google Sheets triggers. Add an AI node to create summaries/extract relevant repair data from repair request that include long submissions.
Automate Dutch Public Procurement Data Collection with TenderNed
TenderNed Public Procurement What This Workflow Does This workflow automates the collection of public procurement data from TenderNed (the official Dutch tender platform). It: Fetches the latest tender publications from the TenderNed API Retrieves detailed information in both XML and JSON formats for each tender Parses and extracts key information like organization names, titles, descriptions, and reference numbers Filters results based on your custom criteria Stores the data in a database for easy querying and analysis Setup Instructions This template comes with sticky notes providing step-by-step instructions in Dutch and various query options you can customize. Prerequisites TenderNed API Access - Register at TenderNed for API credentials Configuration Steps Set up TenderNed credentials: Add HTTP Basic Auth credentials with your TenderNed API username and password Apply these credentials to the three HTTP Request nodes: "Tenderned Publicaties" "Haal XML Details" "Haal JSON Details" Customize filters: Modify the "Filter op ..." node to match your specific requirements Examples: specific organizations, contract values, regions, etc. How It Works Step 1: Trigger The workflow can be triggered either manually for testing or automatically on a daily schedule. Step 2: Fetch Publications Makes an API call to TenderNed to retrieve a list of recent publications (up to 100 per request). Step 3: Process & Split Extracts the tender array from the response and splits it into individual items for processing. Step 4: Fetch Details For each tender, the workflow makes two parallel API calls: XML endpoint - Retrieves the complete tender documentation in XML format JSON endpoint - Fetches metadata including reference numbers and keywords Step 5: Parse & Merge Parses the XML data and merges it with the JSON metadata and batch information into a single data structure. Step 6: Extract Fields Maps the raw API data to clean, structured fields including: Publication ID and date Organization name Tender title and description Reference numbers (kenmerk, TED number) Step 7: Filter Applies your custom filter criteria to focus on relevant tenders only. Step 8: Store Inserts the processed data into your database for storage and future analysis. Customization Tips Modify API Parameters In the "Tenderned Publicaties" node, you can adjust: offset: Starting position for pagination size: Number of results per request (max 100) Add query parameters for date ranges, status filters, etc. Add More Fields Extend the "Splits Alle Velden" node to extract additional fields from the XML/JSON data, such as: Contract value estimates Deadline dates CPV codes (procurement classification) Contact information Integrate Notifications Add a Slack, Email, or Discord node after the filter to get notified about new matching tenders. Incremental Updates Modify the workflow to only fetch new tenders by: Storing the last execution timestamp Adding date filters to the API query Only processing publications newer than the last run Troubleshooting No data returned? Verify your TenderNed API credentials are correct Check that you have setup youre filter proper Need help setting this up or interested in a complete tender analysis solution?
