Automate n8n Workflow and Credential Backups to GitHub with Change Detection
This n8n workflow automates the backup of workflows and credentials to GitHub, only committing changes when differences are detected, reducing redundant commits.
This workflow is designed for self-hosted n8n instances and uses community nodes to automate the backup process. It leverages hash comparison to detect changes in workflows and credentials, ensuring that only modified files are pushed to GitHub. This prevents unnecessary clutter in your repository and optimizes storage usage. The workflow includes error handling to ensure continuity even if errors occur during GitHub operations.
