Setup n8n with Portainer and Nginx Proxy Manager

Hey, These are some beginner questions, please tell me if I have to provide more information. I have a VPS and I host a few web apps on it. Mattermost and some Ghost Blogs. To control the server visually I use Portainer. To visually map the Domains to the right Containers and for SSL I use Nginx Proxy Manager.

Thank you so much in advance!

Hey @Jon !

Thank you so much again for the manual!

It worked!
Thank you!
