First of all thank you for accepting me to the community! I am Yannis (from Greece), a Senior Systems (Linux) Engineer. Have worked in the US and Greece for several years and I'm currently working at a large European organization in Germany for the last 20 years! The corporate environment, with its bureaucracy, politics, etc. has taken a toll on me and I've realized that it's time for me to move on, learn something new and do something that will excite me and... awake me. Totally new in the world of AI, I'm still collecting information on how to start, what to study, which courses to attend, etc., so any directions, suggestions, advises, etc. are welcome and appreciated. I recently came across n8n and the related automation platforms. Looking forward to learn more and start building my own workflows...

Hey, I'm Alex, French living in Madrid, I'm also a workflow creator, n8n ambassador and YouTuber. I have a very diverse background as I begin studying pharmacy + business school, which I really didn't like, then wanted to be an actress so I went to Drama school in Paris. I met tech 13 years ago, beginning with WordPress with no code and stretching myself to a full stack JavaScript bootcamp became a front-end developer, developer relations, speaker, And since about two years I'm into AI and automation Discovered n8n became an ambassador created YouTube channel in English and now a YouTube channel in French as I realized the French market is underserved and also a free community in French. Happy to help, to share, and also to be helped with advanced things, especially when things need to scale!

I am an entrepreneur and founder of a non-profit foundation and an incorporated company operating for 15+ years, with a background in bridging emerging tech with practical business solution. These days I spend most of my coding time directing Claude Code on AI automation projects. Currently working on AI systems for trend detection in tech innovation and “talk with your data” interfaces using RAG. Always keen to connect with fellow European entrepreneurs and AI experimenters who focus on real-world implementation over hype.

Hello, guys, it's good to be a part of this wonderful community and i'm new to n8n workflow. just curious to know, can i run n8n workflow with zero cost? or what do i need to set up n8n workflow?

Hello I would like to scrape simple and variable products from marketplaces that don't have an actor, like Darty (a French marketplace), but I'm not sure I'm doing it correctly. Is it the same as the configuration for a marketplace that has an existing actor, like Amazon? Could you explain what all the options are for, how to manage pagination and variable products? After that, I'd like to add n8n because I want to add conditions, avoid or delete duplicates, sort suppliers by city, create a list of all suppliers with a "contact" button, and put the CSV files in multiple formats, specifically the import format for each marketplace (I'm not sure if I should do this setup in Apify or n8n). I ask all these questions to LLMs, and they explain it to me, but I'm not sure I've fully understood. The main problem is that they can't show me diagrams like when I use the application. They talk about a "custom vector." Does this mean the only thing I have to do is copy-paste a JSON code and nothing else, no other configuration? Have I understood correctly that I can add conditions and therefore scrape any marketplace by specifying all of this in the JSON I give to Apify? If so, then I'm trying to understand the difference between that and the other conditions I can create in n8n. And finally, do you use Crawl4AI? I ask my chats what the difference is with Apify, and I still can't quite understand. Apparently, it's not as precise as a scraper with custom logic (like Apify), but by adding the APIs of Groq and Deepseek, or others, to Crawl, would that make it as intelligent as Apify Thanks
