Hello,
I have a worklow that backs up to GitHub daily.
I ahve anpther workfole to restore the files.
This does not work.
Is anyone interested in taking a look?
I had Claude create it, but it does not pass after the 2nd node
You can provide the workflow code first then others can take a look.
Thanks.
Hello again,
few questions first, so you have this flow, which instance is this working on / running from?
Are you running the workflow on n8n-10? and using this workflow to stop n8n on n8n-10?
This would be the issue, you’re stopping the service, which is going to stop the workflow.
I would recommend either running from another host n8n, or directly in the terminal via bash script etc.
Hope that makes sense let me know if you have any other questions.

yes the n8n-10 path is correct. I was hoping to use the workflow. This has the full restore. There was also a single template and a folder template. Stoping the workflow makes sense now. So, the process might be to run on a n8n-1 and not stop the docker and process the trasfer to a n8n-10 storage?

Sure, that fine, but if you run it on n8n-10, and stop services on n8n-10 the gui and execution may fail or try continue on startup (I would avoid this way running on same instance), I think it will cause issues, so better to use a main like 01, to manage all the others.
Hope that helps,
Samuel
Just wonder why not use n8n import command
Since you have all the workflow json you need.
That should be much easier to import them at once.
Also it can backup and restore credentials.
That’s possible but then you lose your sqlite db with has other things than just workflows and credentials, but a good option if thats all is needed

Yes. I want to try to create a replacement for the db restore you did for me, I got the new restore working up till the last build the db, chatCPT, Claude and Qwen could not make it work. If you’d like to take a look: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/75yku4grqezgo0tmh99h2/AK8WwWspxltx_WQj9vpmE5Q?rlkey=9yi2jxre9drlz33r3897x1vu9&st=0ltgrrht&dl=0
