Core Problem Addressed
It eliminates the cumbersome process of manually accessing and saving files when users or systems need to download specific PDF documents online in real-time, enabling automated, fast, and secure file distribution.
Application Scenarios
- Providing instant downloads of the latest materials, reports, brochures, and other PDF files on websites or applications
- Automated file distribution services to reduce manual intervention
- Business scenarios requiring dynamically generated download links with standardized file naming conventions
Main Workflow Steps
- Listen for GET Requests: Trigger the workflow when a user accesses the specified
/download-pdf
endpoint - Request PDF File Remotely: Fetch the target PDF file’s binary data via an HTTP request
- Respond with Attachment: Return the retrieved PDF file as an attachment to the user, with the filename automatically including the current date for easy management and identification
Involved Systems or Services

[OPS] Restore workflows from GitHub to n8n
This workflow implements the functionality of automatically restoring and synchronizing backup workflows from GitHub. By reading the workflow JSON files from a specified path in GitHub, it automatically compares them with the workflows in the current environment to avoid duplication, ensuring that only workflows that do not already exist are imported. This process simplifies the cumbersome manual import, enhances the management efficiency and security of workflows, and is suitable for enterprise IT teams, DevOps engineers, and development teams, ensuring a clean and orderly workflow environment.
Jira Event Trigger Workflow
This workflow automatically captures dynamic changes such as status updates and comments on project tasks by real-time monitoring of various events in Jira, enhancing the responsiveness and collaboration efficiency of project management. It not only triggers subsequent actions automatically, such as notifications and data synchronization, but also helps teams reduce the burden of manually checking task progress, ensuring timely information updates, lowering communication costs, and minimizing the risk of omissions. It is particularly suitable for development teams and project managers.
Linear Issue Intelligent Classification and Team Assignment
This workflow automatically classifies bug-type tickets by listening for new tickets in Linear and intelligently analyzes the ticket descriptions using OpenAI's GPT-4 model to determine the appropriate handling team. If the AI is unable to identify a team, it will automatically send a notification via Slack. This process reduces manual intervention, improves the accuracy and response speed of ticket handling, ensures timely attention to tickets, and enhances team collaboration and operational efficiency.
Standup Bot - Override Config
This workflow is used for manually updating and overriding the configuration file of the Standup Bot. Users simply need to click the execute button, and the workflow will convert the configuration data in JSON format into binary format and write it to the configuration file at the specified path. By automating management, it simplifies the configuration update process, reduces the complexity and errors associated with manual modifications, and improves maintenance efficiency, making it suitable for teams and projects that require frequent configuration adjustments.
Webhook Response Workflow
This workflow receives external requests through a Webhook node and instantly returns a beautified HTML page response, simplifying the integration process with external systems. Users can quickly build customized web interfaces, enhancing the interactive experience of automated processes. It is suitable for developers, product managers, and technical personnel for rapidly setting up test pages or integrating external requests, ensuring efficient collaboration between systems.
GitLab All-Event Trigger
This workflow automatically triggers subsequent processes by real-time monitoring of various events in a specified GitLab repository (such as commits, merge requests, issue changes, etc.). It effectively enhances the team's response speed to project dynamics, preventing information omissions caused by manual monitoring. It is suitable for scenarios such as continuous integration, automated notifications, and document management, helping development teams and project managers improve collaboration efficiency and project quality.
Message Buffering and Intelligent Merged Reply Workflow
This workflow effectively handles continuously arriving chat messages through intelligent buffering and batch merging techniques. It utilizes the Redis caching mechanism to store messages and integrates with the OpenAI GPT-4 model for content consolidation, automatically generating merged responses to enhance conversation efficiency. By dynamically calculating wait times, it flexibly controls the timing of merges, avoids duplicate replies, and optimizes the message processing flow. This approach is particularly suitable for online customer service and intelligent Q&A systems, improving user experience and satisfaction.
Complete Guide to Setting Up and Generating TOTP Codes in n8n 🔐
This workflow is primarily used for the automatic generation of Time-based One-Time Passwords (TOTP), enhancing the security and efficiency of multi-factor authentication. Users can manually trigger the generation process to quickly obtain dynamic verification codes, thereby avoiding the complexities and security risks associated with manual generation. It is suitable for scenarios involving automation engineers, IT security teams, and others who need to integrate security authentication mechanisms, helping to automate and simplify the security verification process.
