- Periodic synchronization of remote files to cloud storage
- Scenarios requiring real-time retrieval of bucket file inventories
- Optimization of internal enterprise file upload and auditing processes
Main Workflow Steps
- Manual Trigger Execution: The workflow is initiated via the “On clicking 'execute'” node.
- HTTP File Request: The “HTTP Request” node downloads a file from a specified URL (in the example, the n8n official website logo image).
- File Upload to S3: The “S3” node uploads the downloaded file to an S3 bucket named “n8n.”
- Retrieve File List: Another “S3” node queries all files within the bucket and returns a complete file list.
Systems and Services Involved
- HTTP Requests: Used for downloading remote files.
- Amazon S3: Cloud storage service for file upload and management.
- n8n Automation Platform: Integrates trigger, request, upload, and query nodes to automate the workflow.
