Automated Nextcloud File Download & Organization
detail.loadingPreview
Effortlessly automate downloading files from any URL and organizing them directly into your Nextcloud instance. This workflow streamlines the process of fetching external content and ensuring it's neatly stored in your personal cloud.
About This Workflow
This powerful n8n workflow provides a comprehensive solution for automating file acquisition and storage within Nextcloud. Triggered manually, it first creates a designated folder in your Nextcloud instance. Subsequently, it performs an HTTP request to download a file from a specified URL, handling binary data efficiently. The downloaded file is then automatically uploaded to the newly created Nextcloud folder. Finally, the workflow lists the contents of that folder, providing confirmation of the successful operation. Ideal for ensuring important resources are always available in your cloud storage without manual intervention.

- Seamless Nextcloud Uploads: Uploads downloaded binary files directly into your Nextcloud storage.
