Describe the problem/error/question

Hello!
I am currently trying to automate formating information into a vCard file for easy importing later on.

Currently it sends an email to my address, along with a vcf file, but when i open it it doesnt show anything. Im rather new to n8n and sel hostig as a whole, and i just couldnt figure out why its not working.

Thanks in advance!

What is the error message (if any)?

Please share your workflow

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version: 1.116.2
  • Database (default: SQLite): SQLite
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): Docker
  • Operating system: Debian 13

Here is the correct way to do it. You had a few issues in the way you set the data but the core problem was that you tried to convert “base64” to a file from plain text which is just going to corrupt the output of the file because plain text is not valid base64. So I changed it to Convert to Text and set the correct value to use.

This now produced a valid vCard:
