Unknown. This template uses community nodes we can't verify statically. Uses community nodes that can't be verified statically (unverified community packages are off by default in 3.0). Static check, last run 2026-10-19.

What this workflow does

This workflow has 54 nodes and runs on a schedule (every day at 01:00) (plus 2 other triggers). Along the way it connects GitLab, Telegram and Robotframework (community).

How it runs

Trigger: On a schedule (every day at 01:00) (plus 2 other triggers).

  1. Set Parameters (Edit Fields (Set)): sets 9 fields: target_host, target_port, target_user…
  2. Switch: routes items into 3 branches
  3. Check Sshpass Exist Local (Execute Command): runs a shell command on the n8n host
  4. Get a file - ROBOT Script (GitLab): get (file)
  5. Check Sshpass Exist Local (D) (Execute Command): runs a shell command on the n8n host
  6. Is Installed Local? (If): checks a condition and branches into true / false
  7. Write Dowloaded ROBOT Script (Read/Write Files from Disk): writes a file to disk
  8. Is Installed Local? (D) (If): checks a condition and branches into true / false
  9. Check Docker on Target (Execute Command): runs a shell command on the n8n host
  10. Install Sshpass Local (Execute Command): runs a shell command on the n8n host

…plus 40 more steps. See the full node list below.

Before you upgrade to n8n 3.0

We can't fully verify this one: it relies on 1 community package, and n8n 3.0 turns unverified community packages off by default (N8N_UNVERIFIED_PACKAGES_ENABLED=false).

  • Check that n8n-nodes-robotframework is verified or supports 3.0 (used in Robot Framework).
