1.1 Workflow description

Title: Download TikTok videos without watermarks and upload to Google Drive
Workflow name: Download TikTok videos without watermarks and upload to Google Drive

Who is this for?

Content creators, social media managers, digital marketers, and researchers who need to download original TikTok videos without watermarks for analysis, repurposing, or archiving purposes.

What problem does this workflow solve?

Downloading TikTok videos without watermarks typically requires using questionable third-party websites that may have limitations, ads, or privacy concerns. This workflow provides a clean, automated solution that can be integrated into your own systems and processes.

What this workflow does

This workflow automates the process of downloading TikTok videos without watermarks in three simple steps:

Fetch the TikTok video page by providing the video URL
Extract the raw video URL from the page's HTML data
Download the original video file without watermark
(Optional) Upload to Google Drive with public sharing link generation

The workflow uses web scraping techniques to extract the original video source directly from TikTok's own servers, maintaining the highest possible quality without any added watermarks or branding.

Setup (Est. time: 5-10 minutes)

Before getting started, you'll need:

n8n installation
The URL of a TikTok you want to download
(Optional) Google Drive API enabled in Google Cloud Console with OAuth Client ID and Client Secret credentials if you want to use the upload feature

How to customize this workflow to your needs

Replace the example TikTok URL with your desired video links
Modify the file naming convention for downloaded videos
Integrate with other nodes to process videos after downloading
Create a webhook to trigger the workflow from external applications
Set up a schedule to regularly download videos from specific accounts

This workflow can be extended to support various use cases like trending content analysis, competitor research, creating compilation videos, or building a content library for inspiration. It provides a foundation that can be customized to fit into larger automated workflows for content creation and social media management.

Use the JSON export at /data/workflows/3146/3146.json as the source template for this automation.
2. Import the template into n8n

Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.
3. Configure credentials and variables

Replace placeholder credentials, API keys, webhook URLs, account IDs, and environment-specific values with your own settings.
4. Test with sample data

Run the workflow manually or in a staging workspace, inspect node output, and confirm downstream systems receive the expected data.
5. Activate and monitor

Enable the workflow only after testing, then monitor executions, errors, and rate limits during the first production runs.

5. General Notes & Resources

Review imported nodes carefully before activation. This catalog entry is intended to help you inspect the workflow structure, understand required services, and find related templates faster.

Node names, credentials, schedules, webhook paths, and external service limits may need adjustment for your workspace.

Export WordPress data to a CSV file

## Quick Overview This workflow manually exports all records from a WordPress site, converts the returned JSON into a CSV file, and saves the CSV to disk on the n8n server. ## How it works 1. Starts when you manually click Execute in n8n. 2. Fetches all available items from your connected WordPress site via the WordPress API. 3. Converts the WordPress JSON response into a CSV file. 4. Writes the generated CSV to the n8n server as `data.csv`. ## Setup 1. Add WordPress API credentials in n8n (site URL, username, and an Application Password). 2. Choose the WordPress resource to export in the WordPress node and confirm the data shape matches what you want in the CSV. 3. Update the output file path/name in the file-writing step and ensure the target directory is writable on your n8n host (for example `/home/node/.n8n/data.csv`).

Aggregate shipment tracking statuses with FedEx, UPS and DHL

## Quick Overview This workflow runs every 15 minutes to fetch active shipments from an n8n Data Table, query FedEx, UPS, or DHL tracking APIs with circuit-breaker protection, normalize each response into a shared status schema, and upsert the latest status back into the same table. ## How it works 1. Runs every 15 minutes on a schedule. 2. Loads all rows from the n8n Data Table `shipment_tracking` and filters out shipments already marked as DELIVERED or RETURNED_TO_SENDER. 3. Routes each remaining shipment by `carrier` and marks unsupported carriers with a canonicalStatus of UNKNOWN. 4. For FedEx, UPS, and DHL shipments, checks a per-carrier circuit breaker and either calls the carrier’s tracking API or skips the call when the breaker is open. 5. Normalizes each carrier response (or skip) into a canonical status (for example PRE_TRANSIT, IN_TRANSIT, OUT_FOR_DELIVERY, DELIVERED, EXCEPTION, UNKNOWN) while updating the breaker state based on 429/5xx/network failures. 6. Merges all carrier results and upserts the latest fields back into the `shipment_tracking` Data Table using `trackingNumber` as the match key. ## Setup 1. Create the n8n Data Table named `shipment_tracking` with columns such as `trackingNumber`, `carrier`, `canonicalStatus`, `rawStatus`, `breakerState`, `httpStatus`, and `checkedAt`, and seed it with shipments (use lowercase carriers: `fedex`, `ups`, `dhl`). 2. Add OAuth2 credentials for the FedEx Track API and select them in the FedEx HTTP request step. 3. Add OAuth2 credentials for the UPS Track API and select them in the UPS HTTP request step. 4. Add DHL API authentication (as configured for the DHL request in this template) and select it in the DHL HTTP request step. 5. Activate the workflow so workflow static data persists between runs and the circuit breaker state is maintained.

Clean up watched Jellyfin media and completed torrents with Transmission

## Quick Overview This scheduled workflow cleans up watched media in Jellyfin and removes completed torrents from Transmission by calling both APIs, deleting played items in Jellyfin, refreshing the Jellyfin library, and deleting torrents (including local data) once they reach the completed status. ## How it works 1. Runs daily on a schedule at the configured hour. 2. Sets the Jellyfin base URL, Jellyfin user ID, and Transmission base URL used for subsequent API calls. 3. Fetches played Movies and Episodes from Jellyfin for the configured user, deletes each returned item, and triggers a Jellyfin library refresh. 4. Calls the Transmission RPC endpoint to retrieve the required X-Transmission-Session-Id, then re-requests the torrent list using that session header. 5. Splits the Transmission response into individual torrents, filters to those with status 6 (completed), and removes each matching torrent while also deleting its local data. ## Setup 1. Add Jellyfin HTTP Header Auth credentials (for example, an API key header) and fill in the Jellyfin server URL and target Jellyfin user ID in the Variables step. 2. Add Transmission Bearer Auth credentials and set your Transmission base URL in the Variables step. 3. Confirm your Transmission instance allows RPC access at `/transmission/rpc` and that your Jellyfin server exposes the `/Users/{userId}/Items`, `/Items/{id}`, and `/Library/Refresh` endpoints for the provided credentials.
