Route documents: MySQL
Starts when someone submits the form across MySQL, Telegram and Slack, routes each kind of record down its own branch. Built for approvals, around a "Keep Valid Tasks" step, in 14 documented nodes.
Route documents with Telegram and MySQL at scale. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Approval Workflow' pattern for software development & devops. It starts from a form and orchestrates 14 nodes across MySQL, Telegram, Slack. 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 MySQL and Telegram in step for approvals, without anyone re-typing a row
- ✓A failed MySQL or Telegram call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 14 nodes in this approvals build
- ✓Branches rejoin before MySQL, so a approvals run reports once rather than 14 times
- ✓Fans the same result out to Slack in the same run, for approvals
- ✓Pinned sample data ships with it — run all 14 nodes for approvals before wiring MySQL
Use cases
- →Teams keeping MySQL and Telegram aligned by hand for approvals
- →Intake checked for completeness before it is stored in MySQL, for approvals
- →Approvals work where "Keep Valid Tasks" is still a manual step before MySQL
- →Approvals work that only reaches MySQL when a form is submitted, when someone remembers to start it
Integrations
Workflow preview (14 nodes)
The template's actual node layout and connections. Node parameters and credential slots unlock with the download.
What's inside (14 nodes)
A look at the node types this workflow uses. No purchase required — full parameters and credentials are yours after you buy.
From download to running in 3 steps
- 1Import. In n8n, open Workflows → menu → “Import from File” and pick the downloaded JSON.
- 2Connect. Add your own credentials on the app nodes - n8n highlights exactly which ones need them.
- 3Activate. Run it once to test, then toggle Active. The automation is live.
What you'll learn
Core levelA compact production shape: validation and error handling without extra machinery.
- •Branching cleanly on approve versus decline
- •Moving data between MySQL, Telegram and Slack in a single run
- •Splitting one run into branches and merging the results back
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 (MySQL, Telegram, 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.
