Ready for 3.0. This template uses no nodes that n8n 3.0 removes. No removed nodes, versions or helpers found. Static check, last run 2026-10-19.

What this workflow does

This workflow has 6 nodes and runs manually, when you click “Execute workflow”. Along the way it connects NocoDB.

How it runs

Trigger: Manually, when you click “Execute workflow”.

  1. Set Variables (Edit Fields (Set)): sets 4 fields: my_nocodb, target_table_id, target_table_row_id…
  2. Grab Target Table Row (NocoDB): uses NocoDB
  3. Get Source Table Row (NocoDB): uses NocoDB
  4. Get Target Table Meta Data (HTTP Request): calls an HTTP API
  5. Link Record from Source to Target (HTTP Request): calls an HTTP API (POST)

Services it uses

NocoDB

Before you upgrade to n8n 3.0

Nothing in this workflow is removed in n8n 3.0, so it should import and run after the upgrade.

Nodes used (4)

From the author
