I had the pleasure of connecting with Rudolf Van Loggerenberg from New Zealand for a live workflow building session. I met him in one of the communities and we started a business - friendship relationship. After catching up on our respective journeys in the automation space, Rudolf walked me through his latest N8N workflow . A sophisticated PAT Test Report Parser designed for a very specific niche market he's serving. What impressed me the most: The workflow elegantly handles the complete document lifecycle: - Inbound Email & File Capture - PDF Text Extraction - Parsing & Structuring Data - Automated Folder Generation & Client Initialization - Report Generation & Delivery - Smart Error Notification handling My takeaway? This is the power of the n8n community practitioners from opposite ends of the world sharing real world solutions, learning from each other's approaches, and pushing the boundaries of what's possible with no-code automation. Rudolf's work demonstrates how deep vertical expertise combined with N8N's flexibility can transform manual, repetitive processes into streamlined automated systems. Thank you Rudolf for the generous knowledge sharing. These cross continental Sunday sessions are what community is all about. It was also great to discuss some globale issue and solve them as well in the same moment (at least thats what we thought ) What niche workflow challenges are you solving with automation? I'd love to hear in the comments. Activate to view larger image,

I’ve noticed that many people here are excited to get started, but at the same time feel unsure about where to focus first or whether they’re even heading in the right direction. I remember being in that exact spot myself. Sometimes it’s not about doing more, it’s about getting clarity on the next right step. What’s the one thing that’s currently holding you back the most? • Not knowing what to start with• Too many options and ideas • Lack of confidence • Information overload • Or something else? Drop it in the comments, chances are someone here has already faced it and found a way through. Let’s help each other move forward.
