Before you upgrade to n8n 3.0

2 things in this workflow are removed in n8n 3.0. Fix them before you upgrade:

  • SerpApi (Google Search) in SerpAPI1, SerpAPI, SerpAPI3…: no direct replacement: call the SerpApi REST API with an HTTP Request tool, or use a verified community node.
  • AI Agent v1 (old agent modes) in Reviewer 1 (v1.7), Reviewer 2 (v1.7), Reviewer 3 (v1.7)…: replace with Latest AI Agent node (Tools Agent). For SQL Agent, use a Postgres or MySQL tool with a recent AI Agent.

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