Unlock 2,000+ Ready‑Made n8n Workflows: Import, Search, and Automate Instantly

Project Overview

n8n is a popular open‑source automation workflow platform that lets users build integrations without writing code, simply by dragging and connecting nodes.

The n8n‑workflows repository curated by Eliad Shahar aggregates more than 2,053 useful n8n workflow templates found across the web, organized by function and node type, each provided as a JSON file ready for import.

It also includes a powerful local documentation search system built with Python and SQLite, allowing millisecond‑level keyword searches across thousands of templates.

Features

Templates are divided into 12 major categories such as AI, e‑commerce, social‑media management, etc.

Each workflow can be imported into n8n via the “Import from File” dialog.

A local FastAPI service runs on port 8000, offering a searchable web UI.

How to Use

Method 1 – Import JSON directly

Clone the n8n‑workflows repository, locate the workflows folder containing JSON files, open the n8n canvas, click the three‑dot menu → “Import from File…”, and select a JSON file to load the workflow.

Method 2 – Deploy the search handbook

After installing Python, run the following commands to set up the local service:

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt
# Start the FastAPI server
python run.py
# Open in browser
http://localhost:8000

Visiting the local URL displays a searchable interface where you can type keywords (e.g., “invoice”, “AI”) to find matching templates instantly.

Clicking a template shows its description, node count, and JSON, which can be copied into a new n8n canvas.
