Hey everyone, Sean here! Welcome to N8N Newbies - a community built by beginners, for beginners. Who this community is for: If you're brand new to n8n, workflow automation, or APIs and feeling overwhelmed... you're in the right place. I'm learning this stuff too, and I'm documenting the journey so we can all level up together. What makes this different: I'm not an expert. I'm a beginner teaching other beginners. That means I explain things the way I wish someone had explained them to me - no jargon, no assumptions, just real talk about what actually works. What you'll get here: - Step-by-step tutorials and breakdowns - A safe space to ask "dumb" questions (there aren't any) - Real workflows you can actually use - A community of people at the same stage as you Let's build cool stuff together. Welcome aboard! ā Sean

What's your first n8n workflow idea? š”
I'm curious - what brought you to n8n? What's the first workflow you want to build? For me, it was automating my Gmail responses using AI. I wanted to start by building a simple workflow, so I built a workflow that reads incoming emails, uses AI to generate responses, and sends them automatically. Still tweaking it, but it's so cool to see how this automation works and building this was so fun! I'm hooked! Drop your ideas below - maybe someone here has already built something similar and can help you out š
