Weekly Coffee Chat Automator for Mattermost (Random Groups of 3)

Automatically fetches Mattermost channel members, randomly shuffles and divides them into groups of 3, then sends personalized invitations for weekly coffee chats.

This n8n workflow automates team-building by pulling active members from a specified Mattermost channel, shuffling them randomly using a Fisher-Yates algorithm, and forming groups of ideally three people each. It intelligently handles edge cases, such as groups of one, by merging with the previous group to ensure balanced trios. Once groups are created, the workflow sends direct messages or invitations via Mattermost to each member, including usernames and emails for easy coordination. Key bene
