Clockify Backup Template
Configured with Clockify, Compare Datasets, Extract From File, Filter, and additional nodes. Review the connections and setup before adapting this template.
Node categories in this workflow
- Transform
- Routing
- Integration
- Web / API
- Trigger
Icons describe general node roles, inferred from node types. Inspect the parameters for the configured action.
Drag to pan; use + and − to zoom. Reconstructed from the exported node positions; nothing runs here. Dashed lines represent non-main connections. Full node names and notes appear below.
How it works
The exported workflow contains the following configured nodes. Their connections are shown above; inspect the JSON for the complete logic, expressions, and external actions.
| Node | Category | Type | Operation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Extract from File | Transform | Extract From File | fromJson |
| Compare Datasets | Transform | Compare Datasets | See node parameters |
| Stop and Error | Routing | Stop And Error | See node parameters |
| Globals | Transform | Edit Fields | See node parameters |
| Set month indexes | Transform | Edit Fields | See node parameters |
| Split Out indexes | Transform | Split Out | See node parameters |
| Set intervals | Transform | Edit Fields | See node parameters |
| Skip empty reports | Routing | Filter | See node parameters |
| Get first workspace | Integration | Clockify | workspace |
| Get detailed monthly report | Web / API | HTTP Request | POST |
| Check if file exists in GitHub | Integration | Github | file / get |
| Point to new data | Transform | Edit Fields | See node parameters |
| Check for 404 error message | Routing | If | See node parameters |
| Update file in GitHub | Integration | Github | file / edit |
| Create file in GitHub | Integration | Github | file |
| Schedule Trigger | Trigger | Schedule Trigger | See node parameters |
Setup
- Download the JSON and import it into an isolated n8n instance. Leave the workflow inactive.
- Connect your own credentials through n8n’s credential store. Replace
REPLACE_WITH_*values with your resource identifiers. - Inspect API destinations, Code nodes, database queries, file paths, and outbound actions.
- Run with synthetic data and harmless destinations. Enable triggers only after checking the actual outputs.
Requirements
An n8n instance with the listed node types and compatible versions. Service-connected workflows may require accounts, credentials, or paid APIs.

Workflow notes
Set Globals
Set Globals
- Define the repository owner (username / organization) and repository name
- By default the fist available Clockify workspace ID is set. This can be overridden here.

By default this workflow runs once a day.
Set Scope (optional)
Set Scope (optional)
By default the last three moths are being backed up. 0 = current month, 1 = last month, etc.
Sticky Note1
A detailed report is being retrieved for every month across all entries in the workspace.
Sticky Note2
The reports are created or updated in GitHub. It is essential to back up previous months as well, as values like tags may still change over time.

Purpose and structure
This folder contains the Clockify Backup Template workflow. Its executable nodes use clockify, compareDatasets, extractFromFile, filter, github, httpRequest, if, scheduleTrigger, set, splitOut, stopAndError. The table and connection map below are derived from the JSON, not an inferred guarantee of behavior.
Setup
Import inactive. Configure your own credentials and replace REPLACE_WITH_* values. Review external destinations and Code nodes before running.

Sanitized source candidate; not runtime-tested. This overview is generated from node metadata. Read the folder README for the connection map, credential types, and license.
