AI Chatbot for Natural Language Database Queries
detail.loadingPreview
This n8n workflow allows you to effortlessly query your database using natural language. Simply chat with the AI, and it will translate your questions into SQL queries, execute them, and provide direct answers from your data.
About This Workflow
Unlock your data's potential with this intelligent n8n workflow, transforming complex database interactions into simple chat conversations. Powered by an OpenAI Chat Model (like gpt-4o-mini), it acts as an AI Agent that understands your natural language questions. It leverages conversational memory to maintain context, generating precise SQL queries (initially for Postgres, but easily swappable for MySQL or SQLite) which are then executed directly against your database. Gain immediate insights without writing a single line of code, making data access intuitive for everyone, from business analysts to developers.
Key Features
- Natural Language to SQL Conversion: Automatically translates your plain English questions into executable SQL queries.
- Conversational Memory: The AI remembers past interactions, allowing for follow-up questions and more natural dialogues.
- Direct Database Querying: Connects directly to your Postgres database (or other SQL databases) to fetch real-time data.
- Intuitive Chat Interface: Interact with your data through a simple chat window, no SQL knowledge required.
- Flexible Database Support: Easily adapt the workflow to connect with MySQL or SQLite databases.

OpenAI Chat Modelnode's credentials. - Set Up Database: Connect your Postgres database by configuring the
Postgresnode with your host, port, user, password, and database name. - Activate Trigger: Ensure the

- Customize Database (Optional): To use MySQL or SQLite, remove the
Postgresnode, add the appropriate database node (e.g.,MySQL,SQLite), configure its credentials, and connect its "ai_tool" output to theAI Agentnode.
