Backup Your Workflows to GitHub in Subfolders

Automatically back up your n8n workflows — straight to GitHub.

This automation exports all your workflows from n8n and syncs them with a GitHub repository. It checks for existing files and smartly updates, creates, or skips based on changes — so your automations are always version-controlled.

Perfect for teams, solo builders, and developers who want peace of mind and Git-level backup hygiene.

What it does:

🛠️ Exports all workflows using the n8n API
🔁 Loops through each workflow to handle backup individually
📂 Checks GitHub for existing files using credential-based IDs
🔄 Updates existing files if changes are detected
🆕 Creates new files if they don’t exist
✅ Skips files if nothing has changed

✅ Setup guide & importable automation included
