Automate n8n Workflow Backups to Bitbucket
detail.loadingPreview
Ensure the safety and version history of your n8n workflows by automating their backup to Bitbucket. This solution schedules daily backups and intelligently handles API rate limits to maintain consistent data protection.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow provides a robust solution for automatically backing up your n8n workflows to a Bitbucket repository. It triggers daily at 2 AM, retrieves all existing n8n workflows, and compares them against their presence in Bitbucket. If a workflow is new or has been modified, it's uploaded as a new commit to your specified Bitbucket repository. The workflow also includes intelligent rate limiting management for the Bitbucket API, ensuring smooth and uninterrupted backups. This setup is crucial for disaster recovery, change tracking, and maintaining a reliable version history of your automation processes.
Key Features
- Scheduled Daily Backups: Automatically backs up your n8n workflows every day at 2 AM.
- Intelligent Change Detection: Compares existing Bitbucket files with current n8n workflows to only upload changes.
- Bitbucket Integration: Seamlessly pushes workflow JSON files as code into your specified Bitbucket repository.
- API Rate Limit Management: Includes logic to intelligently wait and avoid exceeding Bitbucket API rate limits.
- Error Handling: Continues processing even if a specific workflow fetch or comparison encounters an error.
How To Use
- Schedule Trigger: Configure the 'Run Daily at 2 AM' node to set your desired backup schedule.
- Set Bitbucket Credentials: In the 'Set Bitbucket Workspace & Repository' node, replace
[workspace-slug]and[repository-slug]with your actual Bitbucket workspace and repository names. Ensure you have configured Bitbucket credentials in n8n. - n8n API Credentials: In the 'Get All Workflows' node, select your n8n API credentials for connecting to your n8n instance.
- Bitbucket API Credentials: In the 'Get Existing Worfklow from Bitbucket' and 'Upload Workflow to Bitbucket' nodes, ensure your Bitbucket HTTP Basic Auth credentials are correctly set up and selected.
- Review and Execute: Once configured, activate the workflow. It will automatically start performing backups according to your schedule.
