Two critical infrastructure workflows running 24/7. One backs up all your n8n workflows to Google Drive daily. The other fires instantly to Telegram whenever any workflow on your instance fails — with the error, workflow name and a direct link.
Exports all n8n workflows via the n8n API, loops through each one and uploads JSON files to a dated Google Drive folder — every day automatically.
Each daily backup creates a new folder with the date — so you always have a full version history of your automation infrastructure.
The Error Monitor fires the moment any workflow fails — sending the workflow name, execution ID, error message and a clickable link to Telegram.
Uses n8n's native Error Trigger — the alert arrives within seconds of failure. No polling, no delay.
Optionally logs each backup run to PostgreSQL — timestamp, workflow count, Drive folder URL. Full backup audit trail.
400+ workflows represent months of work. This system ensures you can always restore from the previous day's backup if anything goes wrong.
Scheduled cron fires at your configured time. Calls n8n API to fetch all workflows in the instance.
Loops through all workflows. Exports each as a JSON file with the workflow name and ID.
Creates a dated folder in Google Drive. Uploads all JSON files. Sends Telegram confirmation with count.
Separate 2-node workflow uses Error Trigger — whenever any workflow fails, it fires immediately to Telegram with full error details.
If you run n8n in production and haven't set up automated backups, you're one server issue away from losing everything.
Protect your automation infrastructure. Know immediately when something breaks — before your customers notice.
Standard infrastructure monitoring practice — backups + alerting. This is the n8n-specific implementation, production-ready.
We'll deploy the n8n Auto Backup and Error Monitor on your n8n instance — backups to Drive, errors to Telegram, all running automatically.
