Session Goal

The goal of this session was to implement a ‘Hello Staff Manager’ workflow in n8n that integrates with a Python script and GPT assistant for two-way communication.

Key Activities

• Created a detailed implementation plan for the ‘Hello Staff Manager’ workflow in n8n.
• Provided a step-by-step guide on using a Manual Trigger node in n8n workflows.
• Set up a manual trigger workflow to integrate with a GPT assistant for querying the Staff Manager and emailing the response.
• Configured the OpenAI GPT API within the n8n HTTP Request Node, detailing the method, URL, headers, and body format.
• Fixed configuration errors in the OpenAI API request, specifically correcting the placement of the model parameter.

Achievements

• Successfully implemented a manual trigger workflow in n8n for integrating with a GPT assistant.
• Correctly configured the OpenAI GPT API for use within n8n workflows.

Pending Tasks

• Further testing and validation of the workflow to ensure robust error handling and integration stability.
