Using CLI to download files in n8n.cloud

Describe the issue/error/question

I am trying to deploy template “Back Up Your n8n Workflows To Github”: n8n.cloud over my cloud instance.

What is the error message (if any)?

For the node ‘Run CLI to export Workflows’, error observed - ‘The node is not valid as its type (n8n-nodes-base.executeCommand) is unknown’

Please share the workflow

“Back Up Your n8n Workflows To Github”

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version: 0.168.2
  • Database you’re using (default: SQLite): Default
  • Running n8n with the execution process [own(default), main]: Default
  • Running n8n via [Docker, npm, n8n.cloud, desktop app]: n8n.cloud

Hey @Raju_Udava,

Welcome to the community :cake:

The Cloud version of n8n doesn’t have the execute command node so the template will fail, We do take backups for cloud daily and if you wanted to export the workflows it can be done in the UI on the left.

Thanks Jon!

How can I access this data?

Hey @Raju_Udava,

Looking at a previous response from @MutedJam it looks like you just need to ask us if you need us to recover from a backup.
