The 6 Weeks in Detail
A new topic each week – building on each other until your finished project.
Foundations – Understanding n8n
Master the fundamentals so the rest of the course flows smoothly.
- How n8n thinks: Nodes, Connections, Triggers, Data Flow
- Expressions & Variables – passing data between nodes
- Understanding JSON (no fear required)
- Different trigger types: Webhook, Schedule, App Trigger
Understanding & Using AI Models
Which model for which job? How do you talk to an AI so it does what you want?
- Overview: GPT, Gemini, Claude, Open Source (Llama, Mistral)
- When to use Text, Vision, or Embeddings?
- Understanding costs & rate limits
- Prompting fundamentals: System Prompt, Few-Shot, Chain of Thought
- AI Nodes in n8n: Configuration & Best Practices
Multi-System Integrations
Connecting multiple tools – this is where the real magic happens.
- API basics for non-techies: What is a token, a webhook, an endpoint?
- Common integrations: Google Workspace, Notion, Slack, CRM, Calendar
- Data mapping: Mapping fields from System A to System B
- Webhooks as a universal trigger
- When do I need the HTTP Node vs. a native node?
Data Privacy & Compliance
What can I automate? What do I need to consider when AI meets personal data?
- GDPR basics for AI usage: Which data goes where?
- Cloud vs. Self-Hosted: When is what appropriate?
- Data Processing Agreements: When do I need a DPA?
- Practical checklist: "Am I allowed to automate this?"
- Anonymization & pseudonymization in workflows
Error Handling & Monitoring
Automations that run reliably – even when things go wrong.
- What happens when a node fails? Error workflows in n8n
- Retry logic: When and how often to retry?
- Error notifications (Slack, Email)
- Reading and understanding the execution log
- Debugging strategies: Where is the bug?
Your Own Projects & Demo Day
Bring it all together. Everyone presents their finished workflow.
- Brief input: Maintenance & further development
- Main part: Group work – final touches on your own project
- Demo Day: Everyone shows their workflow (5 min per person)
- Peer feedback: What's great, what could be improved?
- Outlook: What's next? Resources, community, advanced topics
