Automate Matrix Room Creation, Member Invites & Welcome Messages

This n8n workflow automates Matrix room management by starting with a manual trigger to create a new room named 'n8n' with alias 'discussion-n8n'. It then retrieves the current user's account details and lists members from a specified source room (e.g., '!cMUIsUgevrhCoeMkSG:matrix.org'). An IF node checks if the current user's ID differs from the fetched member ID, proceeding only on true to avoid self-invites.

On the true path, it invites the user to the newly created room and sends a 'Welcome to n8n!' message. The false path uses a NoOp node. This setup ensures efficient migration or duplication of members between rooms without duplicates.

Benefits include time-saving for community admins, reducing manual invites, and enabling quick setup of discussion spaces. Use cases: onboarding new teams to a project room, creating event-specific chats from a main room, or automating Matrix-based team communications in workflows like customer support or internal collaboration.
