How it runs

  2. Spreadsheet File: reads or writes a spreadsheet file (legacy node)
  3. SplitInBatches (Loop Over Items (Split in Batches)): loops over the items in batches
  4. Read Binary File: uses Read Binary File

Before you upgrade to n8n 3.0

  • Read Binary File in Read Binary File, Read Binary File1: replace with Read/Write Files from Disk.

Rather not rewrite it? Many of these flows can be rebuilt in Make (free plan).
