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-autype is verified or supports 3.0 (used in Upload PDF Form, Get Form Fields, Fill PDF Form).

Important: This workflow uses the Autype community node and requires a self-hosted n8n instance. This workflow downloads a fillable PDF form from a URL, extracts all form field names and types using Autype, sends the field list to an AI Agent (OpenAI)…
