Aggregate And Sum Multiple Data Values
detail.loadingPreview
Quickly consolidate multiple data points into a single, aggregated sum with this n8n workflow. Ideal for scenarios where you need to calculate totals from various input items, streamlining your data processing tasks.
About This Workflow
Dealing with scattered data points and needing to derive a single total can be a manual and error-prone process. This n8n workflow simplifies exactly that challenge. It demonstrates how to efficiently aggregate numerical values from multiple incoming items into a single, consolidated sum. Using the powerful Function node, you can define custom logic to iterate through your data, extract relevant figures, and compute a grand total. Whether you're summing sales figures, expenses, or sensor readings, this workflow provides a robust foundation for automating your data aggregation needs, saving time and ensuring accuracy in your operational reports and analyses.
Key Features
- Efficient Data Aggregation: Automatically sums numerical values across multiple input items.
- Customizable Summation Logic: Easily modify the
Functionnode to sum different fields or apply other aggregation methods. - Consolidated Output: Transforms multiple data items into a single output containing the total sum.
- Flexible Data Input: Connects seamlessly with any node providing numerical data, such as databases, APIs, or webhooks.
- Manual Trigger for Testing: Start the workflow instantly for development and testing purposes.
How To Use
- Initiate the Workflow: Click the "On clicking 'execute'" node to manually start the workflow. In a real scenario, you'd replace this with your desired trigger (e.g., a webhook, schedule, or database event).
- Provide Data (Mock data node): The "Mock data" node currently generates example amounts. Replace or modify this node to connect to your actual data source (e.g., an HTTP Request node to an API, a Spreadsheet node, or a Database node). Ensure your data items contain the numerical field you wish to sum (e.g.,
amount_USD). - Configure Summation (Summing function node):
- Open the "Summing function" node.
- Locate the line
total += item.json.amount_USD;. - Important: Change
amount_USDto the exact name of the field in your incoming data that you want to sum. For example, if your data hasitem.json.price, change it tototal += item.json.price;.
- Review Output: After execution, the "Summing function" node will output a single item containing
total_value, which is the sum of all your specified numerical fields.
