KB Tool - Confluence Knowledge Base
Quickly retrieve information from your Confluence knowledge base with this n8n workflow. It connects to your Confluence instance via an HTTP Request node, allowing you to query for specific content directly from n8n. This workflow is ideal for support teams needing to rapidly access articles, developers looking up documentation, or anyone who frequently references Confluence pages and wants to integrate that data into other automated processes.

Analyze the sentiment of feedback and send a message on Mattermost
Automatically analyze customer feedback sentiment and notify your team on Mattermost with this n8n workflow. This automation connects Typeform submissions directly to Google Cloud Natural Language for sentiment analysis, then routes the results to your Mattermost channel. When a user submits a form through Typeform, the workflow extracts the feedback, sends it to Google Cloud Natural Language for sentiment scoring, and based on that score, sends a message to a designated Mattermost channel, allowing for immediate team awareness of positive, negative, or neutral feedback. This workflow is ideal for product managers, customer support teams, or marketing departments who need to quickly gauge public opinion or customer satisfaction from surveys, support tickets, or product reviews, enabling faster response times to critical feedback and reducing the manual effort of monitoring and reporting. It saves significant time and ensures that important customer insights are never missed, fostering a more responsive and customer-centric operation.
Hacker News Throwback Machine - See What Was Hot on This Day, Every Year!
Discover what was trending on Hacker News on this exact day, every year, with the Hacker News Throwback Machine. This n8n workflow automates the process of fetching historical Hacker News front pages and summarizing the top stories, delivering a daily dose of tech nostalgia directly to your Telegram chat. A Schedule Trigger initiates the workflow, which then dynamically generates a list of past years. For each year, it uses an HTTP Request node to retrieve the Hacker News front page for today's date, then an HTML Extract Details node parses the headlines and links. These headlines are then compiled and fed into a Google Gemini Chat Model via a Basic LLM Chain, which summarizes the most interesting stories. Finally, the summarized insights are sent to your designated Telegram chat, providing a unique historical perspective without any manual effort. This workflow is perfect for tech enthusiasts, developers, or anyone curious about the evolution of tech news, saving significant time and effort compared to manually searching through archives.
