# Visualize Your n8n Workflows with Mermaid.js
This n8n workflow demonstrates how to dynamically generate Mermaid.js diagrams from your n8n workflow definitions. It allows you to visualize the structure and flow of your workflows, making them easier to understand, document, and share.
## Description
This workflow takes an n8n workflow JSON definition, extracts its structure, and transforms it into a Mermaid.js flowchart syntax. This generated Mermaid.js code can then be used in various tools (like GitHub, GitLab, Notion, or dedicated Mermaid.js renderers) to create visual representations of your n8n workflows.
## What it does
1. **Triggers Manually**: The workflow is designed to be executed manually, allowing you to process a workflow definition on demand.
2. **Sets Workflow Data**: An "Edit Fields (Set)" node is used to define the n8n workflow JSON data that will be processed. This is where you would paste the JSON of the workflow you want to visualize.
3. **Generates Mermaid.js Code**: A "Code" node processes the input n8n workflow JSON. It iterates through the nodes and connections, converting them into Mermaid.js `graph TD` syntax.
4. **Aggregates Output**: An "Aggregate" node combines the generated Mermaid.js lines into a single output item.
5. **Responds to Webhook (Optional)**: A "Respond to Webhook" node is present, suggesting that this workflow might also be designed to be triggered by an external webhook and return the Mermaid.js code as a response.
6. **Conditional Logic (Unused)**: A "Switch" node and an "n8n" node are present but currently unconnected, indicating potential future extensions or alternative processing paths for the generated Mermaid.js code or workflow data.
7. **Sticky Note**: A sticky note provides context or instructions within the workflow.
## Prerequisites/Requirements
* **n8n Instance**: You need a running n8n instance to import and execute this workflow.
* **n8n Workflow JSON**: The JSON definition of the n8n workflow you wish to visualize.
## Setup/Usage
1. **Import the workflow**: Download the provided JSON and import it into your n8n instance.
2. **Provide Workflow JSON**:
* Open the "Edit Fields (Set)" node (ID: `38`).
* In the "Values to Set" section, you will find a field (likely named `json` or similar, depending on configuration) where you should paste the full JSON definition of the n8n workflow you want to visualize.
3. **Execute the Workflow**: Click "Execute Workflow" in the n8n editor.
4. **Retrieve Mermaid.js Code**: After execution, inspect the output of the "Aggregate" node (ID: `1236`). This will contain the generated Mermaid.js flowchart code.
5. **Visualize**: Copy the Mermaid.js code and paste it into any tool that supports Mermaid.js rendering (e.g., GitHub Markdown, GitLab, Notion, Mermaid Live Editor) to see the visual diagram of your n8n workflow.
**Example of expected output (from the "Aggregate" node):**
```mermaid
graph TD
A[Node Name 1] --> B(Node Name 2)
B --> C{Decision Node}
C -- Yes --> D[Action 1]
C -- No --> E[Action 2]

Synchronizing WooCommerce inventory and creating products with Google Gemini AI and BrowserAct
Synchronize WooCommerce Inventory & Create Products with Gemini AI & BrowserAct This sophisticated n8n template automates WooCommerce inventory management by scraping supplier data, updating existing products, and intelligently creating new ones with AI-formatted descriptions. This workflow is essential for e-commerce operators, dropshippers, and inventory managers who need to ensure their product pricing and stock levels are synchronized with multiple third-party suppliers, minimizing overselling and maximizing profit. --- Self-Hosted Only This Workflow uses a community contribution and is designed and tested for self-hosted n8n instances only. --- How it works The workflow is typically run by a Schedule Trigger (though a Manual Trigger is also shown) to check stock automatically. It reads a list of suppliers and their inventory page URLs from a central Google Sheet. The workflow loops through each supplier: A BrowserAct node scrapes the current stock and price data from the supplier's inventory page. A Code node parses this bulk data into individual product items. It then loops through each individual product found. The workflow checks WooCommerce to see if the product already exists based on its name. If the product exists: It proceeds to update the existing product's price and stock quantity. If the product DOES NOT exist: An If node checks if the missing product's category matches a predefined type (optional filtering). If it passes the filter, a second BrowserAct workflow scrapes detailed product attributes from a dedicated product page (e.g., DigiKey). An AI Agent (Gemini) transforms these attributes into a specific, styled HTML table for the product description. Finally, the product is created in WooCommerce with all scraped details and the AI-generated description. Error Handling: Multiple Slack nodes are configured to alert your team immediately if any scraping task fails or if the product update/creation process encounters an issue. Note: This workflow does not support image uploads for new products. To enable this functionality, you must modify both the n8n and BrowserAct workflows. --- Requirements BrowserAct API account for web scraping BrowserAct n8n Community Node -> (n8n Nodes BrowserAct) BrowserAct templates named “WooCommerce Inventory & Stock Synchronization” and “WooCommerce Product Data Reconciliation” Google Sheets credentials for the supplier list WooCommerce credentials for product management Google Gemini account for the AI Agent Slack credentials for error alerts --- Need Help?

Document RAG & chat agent: Google Drive to Qdrant with Mistral OCR
Knowledge RAG & AI Chat Agent: Google Drive to Qdrant Description This workflow transforms a Google Drive folder into an intelligent, searchable knowledge base and provides a chat agent to query it. It’s composed of two distinct flows: An ingestion pipeline to process documents. A live chat agent that uses RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) and optional web search to answer user questions. This system fully automates the creation of a “Chat with your docs” solution and enhances it with external web-searching capabilities. --- Quick Implementation Steps Import the workflow JSON into your n8n instance. Set up credentials for Google Drive, Mistral AI, OpenAI, and Qdrant. Open the Web Search node and add your Tavily AI API key to the Authorization header. In the Google Drive (List Files) node, set the Folder ID you want to ingest. Run the workflow manually once to populate your Qdrant database (Flow 1). Activate the workflow to enable the chat trigger (Flow 2). Copy the public webhook URL from the When chat message received node and open it in a new tab to start chatting. --- What It Does The workflow is divided into two primary functions: Knowledge Base Ingestion (Manual Trigger) This flow populates your vector database. Scans Google Drive: Lists all files from a specified folder. Processes Files Individually: Downloads each file. Extracts Text via OCR: Uses Mistral AI OCR API for text extraction from PDFs, images, etc. Generates Smart Metadata: A Mistral LLM assigns metadata like documenttype, project, and assignedto. Chunks & Embeds: Text is cleaned, chunked, and embedded via OpenAI’s text-embedding-3-small model. Stores in Qdrant: Text chunks, embeddings, and metadata are stored in a Qdrant collection (docaiauto). AI Chat Agent (Chat Trigger) This flow powers the conversational interface. Handles User Queries: Triggered when a user sends a chat message. Internal RAG Retrieval: Searches Qdrant Vector Store first for answers. Web Search Fallback: If unavailable internally, the agent offers to perform a Tavily AI web search. Contextual Responses: Combines internal and external info for comprehensive answers. --- Who's It For Ideal for: Teams building internal AI knowledge bases from Google Drive. Developers creating AI-powered support, research, or onboarding bots. Organizations implementing RAG pipelines. Anyone making unstructured Google Drive documents searchable via chat. --- Requirements n8n instance (self-hosted or cloud). Google Drive Credentials (to list and download files). Mistral AI API Key (for OCR & metadata extraction). OpenAI API Key (for embeddings and chat LLM). Qdrant instance (cloud or self-hosted). Tavily AI API Key (for web search). --- How It Works The workflow runs two independent flows in parallel: Flow 1: Ingestion Pipeline (Manual Trigger) List Files: Fetch files from Google Drive using the Folder ID. Loop & Download: Each file is processed one by one. OCR Processing: Upload file to Mistral Retrieve signed URL Extract text using Mistral DOC OCR Metadata Extraction: Analyze text using a Mistral LLM. Text Cleaning & Chunking: Split into 1000-character chunks. Embeddings Creation: Use OpenAI embeddings. Vector Insertion: Push chunks + metadata into Qdrant. Flow 2: AI Chat Agent (Chat Trigger) Chat Trigger: Starts when a chat message is received. AI Agent: Uses OpenAI + Simple Memory to process context. RAG Retrieval: Queries Qdrant for related data. Decision Logic: Found → Form answer. Not found → Ask if user wants web search. Web Search: Performs Tavily web lookup. Final Response: Synthesizes internal + external info. --- How To Set Up Import the Workflow Upload the provided JSON into your n8n instance. Configure Credentials Create and assign: Google Drive → Google Drive nodes Mistral AI → Upload, Signed URL, DOC OCR, Cloud Chat Model OpenAI → Embeddings + Chat Model nodes Qdrant → Vector Store nodes Add Tavily API Key Open Web Search node → Parameters → Headers Add your key under Authorization (e.g., tvly-xxxx). Node Configuration Google Drive (List Files): Set Folder ID. Qdrant Nodes: Ensure same collection name (docaiauto). Run Ingestion (Flow 1) Click Test workflow to populate Qdrant with your Drive documents. Activate Chat (Flow 2) Toggle the workflow ON to enable real-time chat. Test Open the webhook URL and start chatting! --- How To Customize Change LLMs: Swap models in OpenAI or Mistral nodes (e.g., GPT-4o, Claude 3). Modify Prompts: Edit the system message in ai chat agent to alter tone or logic. Chunking Strategy: Adjust chunkSize and chunkOverlap in the Code node. Different Sources: Replace Google Drive with AWS S3, Local Folder, etc. Automate Updates: Add a Cron node for scheduled ingestion. Validation: Add post-processing steps after metadata extraction. Expand Tools: Add more functional nodes like Google Calendar or Calculator. --- Use Case Examples Internal HR Bot: Answer HR-related queries from stored policy docs. Tech Support Assistant: Retrieve troubleshooting steps for products. Research Assistant: Summarize and compare market reports. Project Management Bot: Query document ownership or project status. --- Troubleshooting Guide | Issue | Possible Solution | |------------|------------------------| | Chat agent doesn’t respond | Check OpenAI API key and model availability (e.g., gpt-4.1-mini). | | Known documents not found | Ensure ingestion flow ran and both Qdrant nodes use same collection name. | | OCR node fails | Verify Mistral API key and input file integrity. | | Web search not triggered | Re-check Tavily API key in Web Search node headers. | | Incorrect metadata | Tune Information Extractor prompt or use a stronger Mistral model. | --- Need Help or More Workflows?
