Archive weekly web page snapshots into a single PDF with PDFMint
UnknownWhat this workflow does
This workflow has 13 nodes and runs on a schedule (every week at 07:00). Along the way it connects Pdfmint (community).
How it runs
Trigger: On a schedule (every week at 07:00).
- Set the pages to archive (Edit Fields (Set)): sets 2 fields: pages, archiveName
- Check the list is usable (If): checks a condition and branches into true / false
- Check remaining quota (Pdf Mint): usage
- Enough credits for this run? (If): checks a condition and branches into true / false
- Name this week's archive (Code): runs custom JavaScript code
- One item per page (Split Out): splits a list into separate items
- Render each page to PDF (Pdf Mint): pdf
- Keep the pages that rendered (Filter): keeps only the items that match a condition
- More than one page survived? (If): checks a condition and branches into true / false
- Merge into one archive (Pdf Mint): merge
…plus 2 more steps. See the full node list below.
Services it uses
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-pdfmint is verified or supports 3.0 (used in Check remaining quota, Render each page to PDF, Merge into one archive).
