n8n Monthly Toggl Time Tracking Summary Workflow

This n8n workflow automates the process of fetching and potentially processing time tracking data, likely from Toggl, on a scheduled basis. While the provided JSON is incomplete for a full Toggl-to-Resend email flow, it sets up the initial steps for a scheduled data retrieval and transformation.

What it does

This workflow is designed to:

1. Trigger on a schedule: It starts automatically based on a predefined schedule (e.g., monthly).
2. Make an HTTP Request: It performs an HTTP request, typically to an API endpoint, to fetch data. This is likely intended to retrieve time tracking entries from a service like Toggl.
3. Process data with custom code: It includes a "Code" node, indicating that the fetched data will be transformed or manipulated using custom JavaScript logic.
4. Merge data: It includes a "Merge" node, suggesting that data from different sources or different stages of processing might be combined.

Prerequisites/Requirements

• n8n Instance: A running instance of n8n to import and execute the workflow.
• API Endpoint: The URL for the API endpoint you intend to query (e.g., Toggl API).
• API Credentials: Any necessary authentication details (API keys, tokens, etc.) for the API endpoint.
• JavaScript Knowledge: Basic understanding of JavaScript to configure the "Code" node for data transformation.

Setup/Usage

1. Import the workflow:
   • Copy the provided JSON code.
   • In your n8n instance, go to "Workflows" and click "New".
   • Click the three dots (...) in the top right corner and select "Import from JSON".
   • Paste the JSON code and click "Import".
2. Configure the Schedule Trigger:
   • Click on the "Schedule Trigger" node.
   • Set your desired schedule (e.g., monthly, daily, etc.) for when the workflow should run.
3. Configure the HTTP Request Node:
   • Click on the "HTTP Request" node.
   • Enter the URL of the API endpoint you want to call (e.g., Toggl API endpoint for time entries).
   • Select the appropriate Method (e.g., GET).
   • Add any necessary Headers (e.g., Authorization header with your API key).
   • Configure Query Parameters or Body Parameters as required by the API.
4. Configure the Code Node:
   • Click on the "Code" node.
   • Write your custom JavaScript code to process the data received from the "HTTP Request" node. This might involve filtering, transforming, or aggregating time entries.
5. Configure the Merge Node:
   • The "Merge" node is currently standalone. If you intend to combine data, connect its inputs to other nodes that produce data you wish to merge.
6. Activate the workflow:
   • Once configured, save the workflow and activate it by toggling the "Active" switch in the top right corner.

Note: The provided JSON is a partial workflow. To achieve a complete "send monthly Toggl time tracking summary via Resend email" functionality, you would need to add further nodes, such as:

• Toggl Node: To simplify interaction with the Toggl API.
• Data Processing/Formatting Nodes: To prepare the summary in a readable format (e.g., using a "Set" or "Code" node to create an HTML or Markdown email body).
• Resend Node: To send the formatted email.
• Email Recipients: Logic to determine who receives the summary.
