ManualTrigger Automate

Target Audience

• Developers: Those who want to automate processes with manual triggers.
• Business Analysts: Users looking to implement conditional logic in workflows.
• Project Managers: Individuals needing to streamline repetitive tasks within their projects.
• Automation Enthusiasts: Anyone interested in enhancing their automation skills with n8n.

Problem Solved

This workflow addresses the need for a manual trigger that allows users to execute a series of automated tasks based on conditional logic. It enables users to handle scenarios where decisions need to be made based on specific criteria, thus optimizing workflow efficiency and reducing manual intervention.

Workflow Steps

1. Manual Trigger: The workflow starts when the user clicks 'execute'. This initiates the automation process.
2. Function Node: A function node generates an array of objects, each containing an id (0 and 1). This represents different scenarios or data points to evaluate.
3. Conditional Check (IF Node): The workflow checks if the id from the function node equals a specific value (in this case, it is set to check for equality). Based on this condition, the flow will diverge into two paths.
4. Set Node (Path 1): If the condition is met, the workflow sets a variable name with the value n8n.
5. Set Node (Path 2): If the condition is not met, the workflow sets a variable name with the value nodemation. This allows for different outcomes based on the initial condition.
