1.1 Workflow description

Title
Get daily weather and save it in Airtable
Workflow name
Get daily weather and save it in Airtable

This smart automation workflow created by the AI development team at WeblineIndia, helps with the daily collection and storage of weather data. Using the OpenWeatherMap API and Airtable, this solution gathers vital weather details such as temperature, humidity, and wind speed. The automation ensures daily updates, creating a dependable historical record of weather patterns for future reference and analysis.

Steps:

Set Schedule Trigger

Configure a Cron node to trigger the workflow daily, for example, at 7 AM.

Fetch Weather Data (HTTP Request)

  • Use the HTTP Request node to retrieve weather data from the OpenWeatherMap API.
  • Include your API key and query parameters (e.g., q=London, unit=metric) to specify the city and desired units.

Parse Weather Data

Utilize a JSON Parse node to extract key weather details, such as temperature, humidity, and wind speed, from the API response.

Store Data in Airtable

Use the Airtable node to insert the parsed data into the designated Airtable table. Ensure proper mapping of fields like temperature, humidity, and wind speed.

Save and Execute

Save the workflow and activate it to ensure weather data is fetched and stored automatically every day.

Outcome

This robust solution, developed by WeblineIndia, reliably collects and archives daily weather data, providing businesses and individuals with an accessible record of weather trends for analysis and decision-making.

4. Reproducing the Workflow from Scratch

  1. 1. Download the workflow JSON

    Use the JSON export at /data/workflows/2730/2730.json as the source template for this automation.

  2. 2. Import the template into n8n

    Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.

  3. 3. Configure credentials and variables

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

  4. 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. 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.
