n8n Multi-Output Node Migration Impact Detection and Report Generation Workflow
Key Features and Highlights
This workflow is specifically designed to detect potential issues caused by incorrect connections in multi-output nodes (such as If, Switch, Compare Datasets) after upgrading to n8n version 0.214.3
. It automatically retrieves all workflows from the current instance, analyzes the connection status of multi-output nodes, identifies workflows and nodes that may be affected, and generates a detailed HTML report to help operations personnel quickly locate and resolve problems.
Highlights include:
- Automated retrieval of all workflows via n8n API
- Intelligent parsing of multi-output node connection integrity using code nodes
- Online report access through Webhook endpoints
- Compatibility with user-extended community nodes via simple configuration
- Intuitive HTML report interface with clickable links to specific workflow details
Core Problem Addressed
During n8n version upgrades, connection relationships of some multi-output nodes may be incorrectly reconnected, causing workflow logic disruption or execution failures. Manual troubleshooting is cumbersome and prone to oversight. This workflow automatically identifies potentially affected workflows and nodes, significantly reducing operational complexity and risk, ensuring stable workflow execution post-upgrade.
Use Cases
- Regression testing after n8n version upgrades
- Verification of connection integrity in complex workflows with multi-output nodes
- Routine health checks by n8n instance operations teams
- Connection validation after extending with community or custom nodes
Main Process Steps
- Trigger the detection process via Webhook
- Use the “Get all workflows” node to call the n8n API and retrieve all workflow data
- Parse and filter workflows with abnormal multi-output node connections using the “Parse potentially affected workflows” code node
- Generate an impact report in HTML format via the “Generate Report” node
- Serve the HTML report through a Webhook node, allowing users to browse and click through to detailed workflow views
Involved Systems or Services
- n8n built-in API (authenticated via API Key)
- n8n Webhook nodes for triggering and returning results
- n8n Code nodes for custom logic processing
- HTML nodes for report presentation

Analyze a URL and Retrieve Job Details Using the Cortex Node
This workflow is manually triggered and utilizes the Cortex node to perform a security analysis on a specified URL, automatically invoking Abuse Finder 3.0 to detect potential risks. Based on the job ID from the preliminary analysis results, it further queries detailed job information, thereby creating a closed-loop security analysis process. It effectively addresses the need for users to quickly obtain security risk assessments and analysis results when dealing with suspicious URLs, enhancing the efficiency of security responses. This workflow is suitable for automated processing by cybersecurity analysts and IT security teams.
Xero Webhook Secure Reception and Automated Processing Workflow
This workflow primarily implements the secure reception and processing of Webhook data from the Xero financial system. By verifying the legitimacy of the requests to ensure the authenticity of the data source, the received Webhook data is stored in a FileMaker database, and subsequent processing scripts are automatically invoked to execute the corresponding business logic. The entire process is fully automated, significantly enhancing the security and efficiency of data processing, making it suitable for automation needs in fields such as finance and auditing.
