Proxmox Custom Intelligent AI Agent Workflow
Key Features and Highlights
This workflow integrates with the Proxmox VE API and leverages an intelligent AI model (Google Gemini) to automatically parse user natural language requests and generate operation commands compliant with the Proxmox API specifications. It supports diverse VM management operations such as creation, deletion, start, stop, clone, migration, and configuration modification. The workflow includes smart functionalities like automatic VM ID generation, default node selection, input parameter validation, and structured output parsing. It supports multiple trigger methods (chat messages, Telegram, Gmail, Webhook, etc.) and incorporates sensitive information filtering for security.
Core Problems Addressed
- Simplifies the management complexity of Proxmox virtualization environments without the need to manually write API requests.
- Lowers the operational threshold through natural language interaction, enabling low-code automated operations.
- Automatically validates and completes request parameters to prevent operational errors.
- Provides a unified output format for easier subsequent data processing and presentation.
- Supports multiple trigger sources to flexibly adapt to different business scenarios.
Application Scenarios
- IT Operations Automation: Rapidly manage and monitor VM lifecycles within Proxmox clusters.
- Cloud Platform Management: Execute VM-related operations via chatbots or email commands.
- Development and Testing Environment Management: Automatically create and adjust test VM configurations.
- Custom Management Portals: Offer convenient VM management interfaces for non-technical users.
Main Workflow Steps
- Trigger the workflow via chat messages, Telegram, Gmail, or Webhook.
- The AI agent parses the user request, understands the intent, and generates the corresponding Proxmox API command (including HTTP method, API endpoint, and request body).
- Execute the appropriate HTTP request to the Proxmox API based on the request type (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc.).
- The returned API response is processed through a code node for structured handling and sensitive data filtering.
- The AI agent further interprets the response results to generate clear, human-readable explanations.
- Finally, the results are returned to the user, completing the interactive loop.
Involved Systems and Services
- Proxmox VE API: Core virtualization management interface.
- Google Gemini (PaLM) AI Model: Natural language understanding and generation.

Clockify Time Tracking Trigger
This workflow automatically checks for changes in time records of a specified workspace every minute by real-time monitoring of Clockify's time tracking data. It eliminates the hassle of manual refreshing and checking, enhancing the efficiency of time management and project monitoring. It is suitable for scenarios such as project management, work hour statistics, and automated report generation, particularly for teams and organizations that require meticulous time management. It helps users achieve real-time data acquisition and subsequent automated processing, improving work efficiency and data accuracy.
Knowledge Base Tool
This workflow is specifically designed for the IT department, enhancing the efficiency of knowledge base retrieval through intelligent processing of user inquiries. It utilizes AI technology to optimize query keywords and calls the Confluence knowledge base API for precise searches. The relevant information retrieved is organized and returned to assist in generating more accurate responses. Through automation, it significantly improves response speed and user satisfaction while reducing manual workload, making it suitable for scenarios such as enterprise IT support and intelligent Q&A systems.
Click-to-Execute AWS SNS Message Push Workflow
This workflow allows users to manually trigger and send custom messages and topics to AWS SNS in real-time, simplifying the message notification process. Users can quickly test the SNS message push functionality without writing any code, making it suitable for critical event notifications and internal team communication. This workflow enhances the timeliness and reliability of notifications, making it particularly beneficial for developers, operations personnel, and product managers, and helps build a flexible and efficient notification system.
Workflow for Retrieving and Exporting All Execution Records
This workflow can be manually triggered and automatically retrieves execution records of all workflows, supporting full data extraction. The retrieved data will be converted into CSV format for easier subsequent analysis and processing. The workflow design is simple and supports flexible replacement of storage nodes, facilitating data archiving or distribution, thus enhancing operational efficiency and analysis. It addresses the cumbersome issues of querying execution records and exporting data, making it particularly suitable for users who need to manage and analyze execution data in bulk.
Entra User to Zammad User Sync
This workflow implements automatic synchronization between Microsoft Entra and the Zammad ticketing system users. By calling the Microsoft Graph API, it retrieves information about Entra user groups and their members, and compares it with user data in Zammad to complete the creation of new users, update information, and deactivate users who have been removed. This process effectively addresses the data inconsistency issue between identity management and customer service tools, reduces the burden of manual maintenance, ensures that user information is accurate and up-to-date in real time, and enhances the efficiency of customer service.
Zigbee2MQTT Automated Backup Upload Process
This workflow automatically initiates backup requests for Zigbee2MQTT devices on a weekly schedule and securely uploads the backup data to a remote server. By parsing and converting the backup data into binary files, it ensures data integrity and security while reducing the need for manual operations. It is suitable for the management of smart home and IoT devices, ensuring timely backups and centralized storage of important configuration and status data, thereby enhancing work efficiency and data security.
Credentials Transfer
This workflow is designed to achieve secure and automated credential replication between different instances. Users select the target instance and the credentials to be copied through an interactive form. The system automatically exports, converts, and transmits the credentials via API calls. The process supports feedback for both success and failure, enhancing operational transparency and user experience. It effectively addresses the issues of decentralized credential management and synchronization difficulties, making it suitable for credential synchronization across multiple environments, team collaboration sharing, and bulk credential replication in large-scale deployments.
Pipedrive Deal Update to Stripe Customer Synchronization Workflow
This workflow monitors updates to the deal status in Pipedrive in real-time, particularly changes to the win date. Once a change is detected, the system automatically retrieves detailed information about the relevant organization and searches for the corresponding customer in Stripe. If the customer does not exist, a new customer will be automatically created, and information such as the address will be synchronized to ensure the accuracy and completeness of customer data. This process effectively reduces manual data entry, enhances data consistency between the sales and finance teams, and improves cross-departmental collaboration efficiency.
