Send a weekly summary for dashboards
Runs on a schedule across Google Sheets, Slack and Google Drive, runs the text through an AI chain, then reads the feed and keeps only what is new. Built for dashboards, around a "Read Source Feed" step, in 24 documented nodes.
Send a weekly summary with Google Drive and Microsoft Teams without manual work. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Scheduled Digest' pattern for data & analytics. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 24 nodes across Google Sheets, Slack, Google Drive. 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. What used to take a morning now runs on its own.
Key benefits
- ✓Keeps Google Sheets and Slack in step for dashboards, without anyone re-typing a row
- ✓Safe to re-run: records already in Google Sheets or Slack are skipped, across all 24 nodes of this dashboards build
- ✓A failed Google Sheets or Slack call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 24 nodes in this dashboards build
- ✓Every dashboards run leaves an audit row behind, alongside Google Sheets
- ✓The dashboards AI step is isolated from Google Sheets, so models swap without touching the other 24 nodes
Use cases
- →Teams keeping Google Sheets and Slack aligned by hand for dashboards
- →Dashboards work where "Read Source Feed" is still a manual step before Google Sheets
- →Dashboards work that only reaches Google Sheets on a schedule, when someone remembers to start it

From download to running in 3 steps
- 1Import. In n8n, open Workflows → menu → “Import from File” and pick the downloaded JSON.

What you'll learn
Production levelProduction-grade: idempotency, dead-letter handling, and reconciliation included.
- •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 (Google Sheets, Slack, Google Drive, Microsoft Teams). 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.
