Automate n8n Updates Using Version Check and Portainer Webhook
This workflow automatically updates your n8n container via a Portainer webhook whenever a new version is available, eliminating the need for manual checks.
The workflow is designed to streamline the update process for n8n by integrating with Portainer. It periodically checks for the latest n8n version on npm and compares it with the currently running version on your local setup. If a newer version is detected, it triggers a Portainer webhook to update the n8n container, ensuring your system is always up-to-date without manual intervention.
