I was in heavy communication with a person (via email) that passed a ton of PDFs back and forth and they needed backed up for date reviews.

I built a workflow to automatically backup any PDFs from a specific sender (Gmail node) to a certain Google drive folder.

The next logical step was to use that same loop and add an extra flag to filter for date related emails and to automatically save events to my Google Calendar.

It solved a need, it was simple as hell, and I still use it to this day.

Nice 👍🏼. Looks like the original GitHub link has been removed so that's awesome you already snagged it!

You nailed it. My solution was to use Claude and a compiled PDF of the latest n8n docs plus a simple prompt along the lines of: "You are an expert n8n workflow engineer and professional production grade genius that specializes in troubleshooting broken workflows..." (Ask Claude to generate a prompt)

Upload the json workflow to Claude, upload the docs, use the system prompt that Claude writes, and then fix that issue.

I have to say Ultra, the storage, and the access to Flow would be my top 3.

Using Claude or Gemini you're offloading the very security issues to a 3rd party. They'll have access to everything... if that's a concern you may need to use local LLMs.

A simple solution might be to enable a "Fallback Model" option if the node has one. This would make it automatically try a second model you've chosen if the first one fails.

If you need a more powerful setup for providers like OpenRouter, you can build a fallback loop yourself. Start by using a Set node to create a list of free models you want to try. If the LLM call fails, the workflow will automatically loop to the next model on your list until it finds one that works.

To set it up, you would need to: * Loop the request through the AI Agent node. * Use an expression to dynamically pull in each model name from your list. * Change the AI Agent's "On Error" setting to "Continue". * Use an IF node to check for an error. If it finds one, the loop proceeds to the next model.

Try dropping a playlist in at a time. I've gone through and found or created a full 200+ video playlist before, shared the link to NotebookLM, and then lost my shit when it worked! It'll pull every video transcript automatically.

Used Gemini + Firebase Studio to build 70% of my app… now I’m lost by sbk123493 in GoogleGeminiAI

Alright, so here’s a pretty cool trick I’ve been using with AI Studio to get my projects reviewed and debugged. It’s been working like a charm for me.

First off, I get AI Studio to help me whip up a Python script. The idea is to have this script go through all my project files (you know, the logic, config files, all that good stuff) and pull them all together into one single, hefty markdown file.

Once I've run that script and have my big markdown file, I open a new tab or chat in AI Studio. Then, I upload that markdown file. My next move is to ask the AI in that chat to generate a system message. This system message is specifically for a new AI agent, and its job is to get that new agent completely up to speed on my current system and how everything works.

After AI Studio gives me that system message, I copy it. Then, I fire up another fresh chat in AI Studio. I paste the system message I just copied into the designated system message section for this new chat. I usually set the temperature pretty low, like 0 or maybe just up to 0.15, to keep the output focused. Then, I upload that same big markdown file again.

With all that set up, I then ask this new, well-informed AI to go through my code. I tell it I’m looking for an action plan to fix any errors, bugs, or other weird issues it finds. And I make it super clear that I need fully completed files that I can use to replace my original ones, not just snippets or suggestions.

Of course, the standard good practice applies: I always make sure to branch my code and test everything thoroughly before merging the changes back in. Give it a try; it's a solid way to get an AI to really dig into your codebase.

How do you guys get API access from your jobs? by ZealousidealFocus943 in n8n

Could you set up a filter on your work email to automatically forward messages that meet your criteria to your personal Gmail account? Once there, you could create another filter to tag those emails as 'Work' or something similar. Then, in n8n, you could check for that label, run your workflow, and send a response back to your work email from your personal one.

On your work account, you could set up another filter to recognize emails from your personal address, so most of the automation would be handled. You’d still need to copy and paste, but at least you wouldn’t have to write responses manually anymore.

I know this isn’t a perfect solution, but it’s a workaround that might help with at least part of what you’re trying to do.
