Questions

I have strong hands-on experience in automation especially with n8n since I use it to automate many parts of my own industrial-automation education business. I’d love to share what I’ve learned with the community.
What topics or problems would you like to see tutorials about?

That’s awesome @shafik real-world n8n experience from running a business is exactly what people struggle to find in tutorials.

If you’re open to ideas, I’d suggest covering both fundamentals and “next-step” AI topics, so beginners and intermediate users can both benefit:

1. Solid basics (with real use cases, not toy examples)

  • “From idea to workflow”: how you take a real problem in your business and break it into nodes, triggers, and data flows.

  • Credentials & APIs in simple terms (how you think about connecting tools safely and reliably)

  • Error handling & debugging a broken workflow from scratch (pinning data, executions view, etc.).

2. Practical AI & AI Agent tutorials
n8n is investing a lot into AI and AI Agents, but many users don’t know where to start. Some ideas:

  • “Build your first AI chat agent” adapted to an industrial-automation context (FAQ bot, course assistant, etc.).

  • AI Agent that can answer questions about your own course materials or docs (RAG-style, using vector DBs).

  • Multi-step “agentic” workflow: for example, an agent that:

    • Collects student activity data

    • Analyzes engagement with an LLM

    • Then automatically sends tailored follow-up messages.

3. Business-focused automations

  • Onboarding new students (form → CRM/Sheets → email/Discord/Telegram → reminders).

  • Automated reporting: weekly summary of student progress or course sales.

  • Incident / support flow: student raises an issue → log it → notify you → track resolution.

Because n8n is evolving fast, anything that shows “this is how I actually run my business with the current features” (especially AI Agent node, chat trigger, evaluations, etc.) will be super valuable.

Maybe you could start with one end-to-end beginner-friendly workflow you really use, then follow it up with a “same use case, but upgraded with AI” version. I am waiting for your tutorials haha! Cheers!
