Auto-Document & Backup N8N Workflows to GitHub & Notion

This workflow automates the documentation and backup of your N8N workflows, targeting those with the 'internal-infra' tag. It runs weekly to detect new or recently modified workflows, uses OpenAI's 4o-mini to generate concise summaries of their functionality, stores these in a dedicated Notion database with details like last update, creation date, and direct links, and exports full JSON backups to a private GitHub repository for version control.

Benefits include robust backup and recovery options, centralized documentation for team collaboration, and proactive notifications via Slack for updates, reducing manual oversight and risk of data loss. It's ideal for enterprise teams managing critical automations, ensuring compliance, auditability, and easy onboarding.

Use cases span IT ops, dev teams, and any high-volume n8n users needing versioned backups and searchable docs. Setup requires configuring credentials for N8N, Notion, OpenAI, GitHub, and Slack, plus creating a Notion database with specific columns and a private GitHub repo.
