Import into n8n

  1. Download the n8n JSON file (full or sanitized).
  2. In n8n: Workflows → Import from file.
  3. Open each node and reconnect credentials to your accounts.
  4. Test with manual execution before enabling triggers.

Sanitized JSON removes credential IDs — safer for sharing. Flow graph JSON is OpenRuna's lightweight format for diagrams and other tools, not n8n import.

Overview

Free n8n workflow: Coffee Bot (Mattermost). 6 nodes across mattermost, cron, googleCalendar, with a downloadable JSON and a visual flow diagram on OpenRuna.

What this workflow does

"Coffee Bot (Mattermost)" is an n8n automation built from 6 nodes spanning mattermost, cron, googleCalendar. 6 nodes · mattermost, cron, googleCalendar Execution begins at the scheduled/triggered trigger and flows through the 6 configured nodes. On OpenRuna you get the visual graph, the integration list, and a downloadable JSON ready to import into n8n. Use it to learn integration patterns, fork it for your own use case, or deploy it quickly after reconnecting credentials.

Use cases

  • Benchmark it against your current mattermost integration to spot missing steps or redundant nodes.
  • Fork it to add error handling, retries, or a notification step without designing the 6-node flow from scratch.
  • Use it as a starting template when wiring mattermost, cron, googleCalendar — adjust node parameters to your accounts and record IDs.
  • Import "Coffee Bot (Mattermost)" into n8n, reconnect credentials for mattermost, cron, googleCalendar, and run the same automation in your own workspace.

Example output

Imported into n8n, "Coffee Bot (Mattermost)" exposes 6 configured nodes. Trigger type: scheduled/triggered. Integrations: mattermost, cron, googleCalendar. Set your credentials on the mattermost node, then verify each downstream node picks them up. Run it once in test mode to verify any branch logic (Switch/IF nodes) before enabling production triggers.

Tips by platform

Claude

Paste the exported JSON for "Coffee Bot (Mattermost)" into Claude and ask it to explain each of the 6 nodes. Claude is good at suggesting credential mappings for mattermost, cron, googleCalendar, plus error-handling and idempotency improvements before you run it in production.

ChatGPT

Have ChatGPT generate a checklist for adapting "Coffee Bot (Mattermost)" to your accounts — which mattermost, cron, googleCalendar credentials to create and which node parameters to change first.

Cursor

Open the downloaded JSON in Cursor and use Agent mode to refactor hard-coded URLs into env vars, or to generate tests for any Code nodes. Keep the OpenRuna flow diagram open so you do not break connection order across the 6 nodes.

Frequently asked questions

How do I import "Coffee Bot (Mattermost)" into n8n?
