How it runs
Trigger: When someone submits an n8n form (“CSV”).
- Convert CSV to JSON (Extract from File): extracts data from a file
- Convert to txt (Convert to File): converts data to a file (to text)
- Loop Over Items (Loop Over Items (Split in Batches)): loops over the items in batches
- Aggregate: combines items into one
- Import resource to Lookio (HTTP Request): calls api.lookio.app (POST)
- Convert IDs into an Array (Edit Fields (Set)): sets 1 field: IDs
- Create Lookio assistant (HTTP Request): calls api.lookio.app (POST)
- Success message form ending (n8n Form): shows the next form page
