Setup

  1. Download the JSON and import it into an isolated n8n instance. Leave the workflow inactive.
  2. Connect your own credentials through n8n’s credential store. Replace REPLACE_WITH_* values with your resource identifiers.
  3. Inspect API destinations, Code nodes, database queries, file paths, and outbound actions.
  4. Run with synthetic data and harmless destinations. Enable triggers only after checking the actual outputs.

Requirements

An n8n instance with the listed node types and compatible versions. Service-connected workflows may require accounts, credentials, or paid APIs.

Workflow Overview:

Workflow Overview:

The workflow begins with the "Google Sheets Trigger" node, which monitors a specified Google Sheet for new row additions. Upon detection of a new row, the workflow progresses to the "Filter Status (Waiting for sending)" node, where items are filtered based on specific conditions.

Subsequently, the workflow moves to the "Filter Items by Current Date" node, which filters items based on the current date. Items matching the current date are then processed further.

The filtered items are then forwarded to the "Gmail" node, where personalized emails are composed and sent to recipients based on the Google Sheet data. Finally, the workflow updates the Google Sheet using the "Google Sheets" node with the status of the sent emails and other relevant information.
