Automate Nightly n8n Workflow Backups to Google Drive

This workflow automates the nightly backup of all n8n workflows to a designated Google Drive folder. It organizes backups by moving previous ones to an 'n8n_old' folder and deletes backups older than a specified age.

This workflow ensures that all your n8n workflows are backed up every night to Google Drive. It includes functionality to move the previous night's backups to a separate folder and rename them with the corresponding date. Additionally, it purges backups older than a specified number of days, keeping your storage organized and efficient. The workflow requires Google Drive credentials and an n8n API key, and it can be customized to fit your scheduling needs.
