Describe the problem/error/question
I’m trying to use n8n to backfill my Airtable database with hundreds of transcripts from our company’s meetings. The current workflow steps I’m using are:
- Retrieve all new meeting transcripts. For backfilling the database in this case, I’m retrieving all of them.
- For each meeting transcript, I have a simple code node that extracts the most important attributes and returns this as flattened json data (with the transcript).
- After extracting attributes, upsert to Airtable.
It’s not a complicated workflow, but I’m wondering if I’m getting issues because of many Airtable requests I’m making (or simply the large amount of data I’m loading in).
What is the error message (if any)?
The workflow runs correctly, but after upserting some of the meeting transcripts to Airtable, the workflow just loses connection and seems to crash.
Please share your workflow
I unfortunately can’t share the workflow as it has some proprietary data from my company that is private.
Are there any template workflows I can find for this type of backfilling process? I’m struggling to find any, and this may help me.
