Before you upgrade to n8n 3.0

1 thing in this workflow is removed in n8n 3.0. Fix it before you upgrade:

  • AI Agent v1 (old agent modes) in Summarize Email with GPT-4o (v1.8): replace with Latest AI Agent node (Tools Agent). For SQL Agent, use a Postgres or MySQL tool with a recent AI Agent.
  • Also check Gmail Trigger below v1.4 runs as v1.4 (drafts skipped, max emails per poll).

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