Before you upgrade to n8n 3.0
5 things in this workflow are removed in n8n 3.0. Fix them before you upgrade:
- Read Binary File in Read Transcript File: replace with Read/Write Files from Disk.
- Convert to/from binary data in Convert to Text: replace with Convert to File or Extract from File.
- Function (legacy) in Parse Content by Platform: replace with Code node, mode 'Run Once for All Items'.
- AI Agent v1 (old agent modes) in AI Agent (v1.8): replace with Latest AI Agent node (Tools Agent). For SQL Agent, use a Postgres or MySQL tool with a recent AI Agent.
- SerpApi (Google Search) in SerpAPI: no direct replacement: call the SerpApi REST API with an HTTP Request tool, or use a verified community node.
Rather not rewrite it? Many of these flows can be rebuilt in Make (free plan).
