Build a daily digest on a schedule

Runs on a schedule across Microsoft Teams, Google Sheets and Slack, runs the text through an AI chain, then reads the feed and keeps only what is new. Built for inbox triage, around a "Read Source Feed" step, in 17 documented nodes.

Build a daily digest with Google Sheets and Microsoft Teams and log the results. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Scheduled Digest' pattern for marketing & advertising. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 17 nodes across Microsoft Teams, Google Sheets, Slack. It uses n8n's LangChain AI nodes (Agent/Chain + chat model). Retry-on-fail is enabled on external calls. Import the JSON, add your credentials, and adapt the parameters. The result is a hands-off process that just works.

Key benefits

  • Keeps Microsoft Teams and Google Sheets in step for inbox triage, without anyone re-typing a row
  • Safe to re-run: records already in Microsoft Teams or Google Sheets are skipped, across all 17 nodes of this inbox-triage build
  • A failed Microsoft Teams or Google Sheets call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 17 nodes in this inbox-triage build
  • Every inbox-triage run leaves an audit row behind, alongside Microsoft Teams
  • The inbox-triage AI step is isolated from Microsoft Teams, so models swap without touching the other 17 nodes

Use cases

  • Teams keeping Microsoft Teams and Google Sheets aligned by hand for inbox triage
  • Inbox triage work where "Read Source Feed" is still a manual step before Microsoft Teams
  • Inbox triage work that only reaches Microsoft Teams on a schedule, when someone remembers to start it

From download to running in 3 steps

  1. 1
    Import. In n8n, open Workflows → menu → “Import from File” and pick the downloaded JSON.
  2. 2
    Connect. Add your own credentials on the app nodes - n8n highlights exactly which ones need them.
  3. 3
    Activate. Run it once to test, then toggle Active. The automation is live.

What you'll learn

Advanced level

Adds branching depth and audit logging on top of the core pattern.

  • Collecting from multiple sources and blending them into one stream
  • Summarizing and formatting a readable digest
  • Archiving each run for an audit trail

Every node carries its own documentation on the canvas, plus notes explaining why the architecture was built this way, a credential setup guide, troubleshooting, and three practice exercises. Sample data comes pinned to the trigger, so you can hit Execute and watch data flow before connecting a single account.

Common questions

What exactly do I get?

The complete, ready-to-import n8n workflow as a JSON file, delivered instantly after payment. Import it into your own n8n (cloud or self-hosted), add your credentials, and it runs.

How do I import it into n8n?

In n8n, open Workflows, click the three-dot menu, choose “Import from File”, and select the downloaded JSON. Then connect your own app credentials on the highlighted nodes.

Do I need anything else for it to work?

You need your own n8n instance and accounts/credentials for the apps this workflow connects to (Microsoft Teams, Google Sheets, Slack). No coding is required.

What if it doesn't work for me?

If the file is faulty, won't import, or isn't as described, contact us within 7 days and we'll fix it or refund you - see our refund policy.

Can I modify or resell it?

You can freely adapt and use it in your own or your clients' projects. Reselling or redistributing the template file itself is not permitted.
