DevOps · Free

Sync self-hosted workflow backups to GitHub

Runs on a schedule, reads every workflow through the n8n API and commits the changes to your GitHub repository with timestamped commits. Deleted workflows are cleaned up, and a safety check stops it from removing backups if the API returns nothing.

Needs a self-hosted n8n instance, an n8n API key and a GitHub token.

Frequently asked questions

Why self-host n8n instead of using n8n Cloud?

Self-hosting keeps your data and credentials on your own server, removes per-execution limits and usually costs less at higher volumes. You do need to keep it updated, which we can handle on demand.

What server size do I need for n8n?

For production we recommend at least 2 vCPUs and 4 GB RAM. The Ucartz KVM VPS Lite (4 GB RAM, NVMe) is a good starting point.

Is self-hosted n8n free to use?

n8n’s Sustainable Use License allows self-hosting for your own internal business use. Reselling n8n as a service needs a commercial licence from n8n.

Do you set up backups and updates?

Yes. We configure database backups during setup, and we can apply n8n updates for you per task or per hour.

Can n8n connect to AI models?

Yes. n8n can call hosted AI APIs or a private LLM running on your own server, which we can install as well.

Has Ucartz published any n8n workflows?

Yes. Ucartz is a published creator on n8n.io, and our free workflows are in the official n8n template library: one backs up every workflow of a self-hosted n8n instance to GitHub, the other emails AI-written chess.com game reviews. See our n8n creator profile.

Can Ucartz build an AI or automation system for my business?

Yes. We deploy private LLMs, retrieval over your documents, n8n workflows and API integrations on your own server, then hand them over with documentation.

Do I have to buy a support plan after the project?

No. After handover you can call us per task, from $8 per 15 minutes or $28 per hour, or choose a monthly plan only if you want one.

Does my data stay on my server?

Yes. Private LLM and automation deployments run on infrastructure you control, so prompts and documents are not sent to third-party AI services unless you choose to.
