Icons describe general node roles, inferred from node types. Inspect the parameters for the configured action.
Drag to pan; use + and − to zoom. Reconstructed from the exported node positions; nothing runs here. Dashed lines represent non-main connections. Full node names and notes appear below.
How it works
The exported workflow contains the following configured nodes. Their connections are shown above; inspect the JSON for the complete logic, expressions, and external actions.
| Node | Category | Type | Operation |
|---|---|---|---|
| On clicking 'execute' | Trigger | Manual Trigger | See node parameters |
| Search Salesforce accounts | Integration | Salesforce | search |
| Keep new companies | Transform | Merge | See node parameters |
| Merge existing account data | Transform | Merge | See node parameters |
| Account found? | Routing | If | See node parameters |
| Remove duplicate companies | Transform | Item Lists | removeDuplicates |
| Set Account ID for existing accounts | Transform | Rename Keys | See node parameters |
| Retrieve new company contacts | Transform | Merge | See node parameters |
| Set new account name | Transform | Edit Fields | See node parameters |
| Create Salesforce account | Integration | Salesforce | account |
| Create Salesforce contact | Integration | Salesforce | contact / upsert |
| Download file | Web / API | HTTP Request | See node parameters |
| Spreadsheet File | Integration | Spreadsheet File | See node parameters |
Setup
- Download the JSON and import it into an isolated n8n instance. Leave the workflow inactive.
- Connect your own credentials through n8n’s credential store. Replace
REPLACE_WITH_*values with your resource identifiers. - Inspect API destinations, Code nodes, database queries, file paths, and outbound actions.
- 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 notes
Downloading a file
Downloading a file
In this example workflow, the spreadsheet file is downloaded from an HTTP location.
Depending on your scenario you might want to swap the HTTP Request node downloading the file with another node fetching the file from another source (such as an FTP service, cloud storage, your local filesystem or an email for example).

Purpose and structure
This folder contains the search salesforce accounts and removeduplicates item lists and set account id for existing accounts workflow. Its executable nodes use httpRequest, if, itemLists, manualTrigger, merge, renameKeys, salesforce, set, spreadsheetFile. The table and connection map below are derived from the JSON, not an inferred guarantee of behavior.
Setup
Import inactive. Configure your own credentials and replace REPLACE_WITH_* values. Review external destinations and Code nodes before running.
