- Download the n8n JSON file (full or sanitized).
- In n8n: Workflows → Import from file.
- Open each node and reconnect credentials to your accounts.
- 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: Sending an SMS with MessageBird. 2 nodes across manual, messageBird, with a downloadable JSON and a visual flow diagram on OpenRuna.
What this workflow does
This n8n workflow, "Sending an SMS with MessageBird", wires together manual, messageBird in 2 nodes. 2 nodes · manual, messageBird Execution begins at the scheduled/triggered trigger and flows through the 2 configured nodes. OpenRuna renders the node graph and offers the JSON export so you can import and adapt it in minutes. Use it to learn integration patterns, fork it for your own use case, or deploy it quickly after reconnecting credentials.
Use cases
- Fork it to add error handling, retries, or a notification step without designing the 2-node flow from scratch.
- Benchmark it against your current manual integration to spot missing steps or redundant nodes.
- Import "Sending an SMS with MessageBird" into n8n, reconnect credentials for manual, messageBird, and run the same automation in your own workspace.
- Use it as a starting template when wiring manual, messageBird — adjust node parameters to your accounts and record IDs.
Example output
Imported into n8n, "Sending an SMS with MessageBird" exposes 2 configured nodes. Trigger type: scheduled/triggered. Integrations: manual, messageBird. Reconnect the manual credential first, then walk the remaining nodes top to bottom. Run it once in test mode to verify any branch logic (Switch/IF nodes) before enabling production triggers.
