Split Out Binary Data - n8n Workflow | Neura Market
Split Out Binary Data
This workflow helps with processing binary data.

This binary data is hard to process because it's not an array you can simply loop through.
This workflow solves this problem by providing a Function node that takes all incoming items and all their binary data and then returns a single item for each file with a `data` key containing your binary file.
