airflow dag run
This workflow automatically triggers and monitors the execution of specified DAGs by calling the REST API of Apache Airflow, allowing real-time retrieval of task execution results. It has built-in status checks and timeout mechanisms to intelligently handle different states, ensuring the stability and controllability of the workflow. It is suitable for scenarios that require remote triggering and monitoring of data pipeline tasks, improving work efficiency, reducing human intervention, and ensuring the smooth progress of task processes.

Key Features and Highlights
This workflow leverages Apache Airflow’s REST API to automatically trigger the execution of a specified DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph), monitor its runtime status in real-time, and ultimately retrieve the task execution results. It incorporates built-in status checks and timeout mechanisms to intelligently handle various states such as queued, running, success, and failure, ensuring the stability and controllability of the workflow execution.
Core Problems Addressed
Automates the triggering and monitoring of Airflow DAG executions, resolving issues related to manual operations being cumbersome, difficulty in tracking statuses, and untimely exception handling. It is especially suitable for scenarios requiring remote or integrated invocation of Airflow tasks with timely feedback on execution results.
Use Cases
- Data engineers needing to remotely trigger and monitor data pipeline tasks
- Automated operations teams triggering and checking Airflow task statuses
- Business systems integrating Airflow job execution results for subsequent processing
- Seamless integration between orchestration platforms and Airflow
Main Workflow Steps
- Input Parameter Reception: Accepts inputs including DAG ID, task ID, configuration parameters (conf), polling interval (wait), and maximum wait time (wait_time).
- Configure Airflow API Endpoint: Sets the Airflow server API base URL.
- Trigger DAG Execution: Initiates the specified DAG via an HTTP POST request to the Airflow API.
- Evaluate DAG Status: Processes the returned DAG run status with branching logic:
- If status is queued, wait for the specified interval before polling again;
- If status is running, continue polling similarly;
- If status is success, retrieve the task execution result;
- If status is failed, terminate immediately and raise an error.
- Timeout Mechanism: Maintains a polling counter and stops execution with an error if the maximum wait time is exceeded.
- Return Results: On success, fetches and outputs the specified task’s XCom return value.
Involved Systems or Services
- Apache Airflow: Utilized for DAG execution and status queries via its REST API.
- n8n: Serves as the automation workflow engine orchestrating and controlling the entire process.

puq-docker-n8n-deploy
This workflow provides a complete set of API backend solutions specifically designed for managing and controlling Docker-based container instances, catering to the integration needs of WHMCS/WISECP modules. Its functionalities include operations such as deploying, starting, stopping containers, mounting disks, managing permissions, and viewing logs. It supports receiving commands through a Webhook API and implements dynamic configuration and access control. Additionally, it integrates an error handling mechanism to ensure efficient and secure operations, providing convenient automated management tools for cloud service providers and IT operations teams.
Automate Assigning GitHub Issues
This workflow is designed to automate the handling of issues and comments in GitHub repositories. It intelligently determines whether a responsible person needs to be assigned and automatically assigns unassigned issues to appropriate users. It can recognize requests from users who proactively claim tasks, avoiding duplicate assignments and significantly enhancing project management efficiency. Whether in open-source projects or internal enterprise development, this workflow helps accelerate response times, reduce the burden on maintainers, and achieve more efficient team collaboration.
n8n Workflow Deployer
This workflow implements automated deployment functionality by monitoring a specific folder in Google Drive, automatically downloading and processing JSON files of n8n workflows. After formatting and cleaning, it uses an API to import the workflows into a designated instance and automatically sets tags. Finally, the deployed files are archived into another folder. The entire process requires no manual intervention, significantly enhancing the efficiency of workflow management and deployment, making it suitable for teams that need to manage and update workflows in bulk.
GitLab Merge Request Intelligent Code Review Assistant
This workflow automates the processing of GitLab merge requests, intelligently receiving and reviewing code changes. It leverages advanced language model technology to analyze code differences and provide professional review suggestions, generating scores and decisions of "accept" or "reject." The review results are automatically published to the discussion area of GitLab, helping development teams quickly address issues, improve code quality and collaboration efficiency, alleviate the burden of manual reviews, and standardize review criteria. It is applicable in scenarios such as software development, continuous integration, and open-source project maintenance.
Simple API Endpoint Creation Workflow
This workflow creates a simple API endpoint through a Webhook node, capable of receiving HTTP requests with a name parameter and dynamically generating Google search links as a response. It requires no coding, allowing for the quick setup of a custom query interface, simplifying the complex processes of traditional API development. It is suitable for automation enthusiasts, developers, and educational training scenarios, making it an ideal choice for generating dynamic links.
cheems
This workflow automates the scheduled sending of fun messages and images to a designated Discord channel. It is set to trigger at various frequencies, including every Friday and Saturday at 9 AM, as well as every 30 minutes. This approach effectively enhances community engagement and interaction, reduces the hassle of manual operations, ensures the delivery of interesting content at specific times, boosts user participation, and fosters a positive community atmosphere. It is suitable for community management and teams looking to automate message delivery.
Docker Registry Image Tag Periodic Cleanup Workflow
This workflow automates the management of tags in the Docker image repository by regularly scanning and deleting expired or redundant tags, while retaining only the latest few and the "latest" tag, thereby keeping the repository tidy. After the cleanup, garbage collection is performed, and the operations team is notified of the results via email, with support for failure alerts. This enhances operational efficiency and space utilization, addressing issues of wasted storage resources and management chaos.
Eventbrite Order Status Real-Time Trigger
This workflow automatically captures events such as order creation, updates, and refunds by real-time monitoring of the order status changes in Eventbrite. Once a change occurs, the system immediately triggers subsequent automated actions to ensure timely response and processing of order data. This real-time monitoring mechanism significantly enhances order management efficiency, helping event organizers, marketing teams, and finance departments quickly respond to order dynamics, thereby optimizing customer service and financial processes.
