Template notes
This template will create a nightly backup of all your n8n workflows to a Dropbox folder. Each night, the previous night's backups are moved into an "old" folder, and renamed with the date they were taken.
Backups over a specified age are deleted. (this is disabled by default for safety until you manually enable and verify it with your own setup)
Prerequisites - Dropbox account and credentials - A destination folder for backups
Setup - Update all dropbox nodes with your credential - Edit the Schedule Trigger node with the desired time to run the backup - Edit the DESTINATION FOLDER node to specify the path in dropbox to upload to. This should be a folder and include the trailing / - If you want to automatically purge old backups - Edit the PURGE DAYS node to specify the age to purge - Enable the PURGE DAYS node, and the 3 subsequent nodes - Enable the workflow to run on the specified schedule
