Hi, I am new to this community and also to n8n. I thought to create my first project in n8n, workflow will execute daily in the morning, check my google calendar, and get the details of all my meetings for this day. Then send the reminder SMS to respective clients. I am facing issue, google calendar has email and don't have phone number, then I used the contacts node. I am bit confused and stuck here. Any help or advice OR if anyone have this workflow template, that would be great help. Thanks in advance! Rana

This is your n8n Cheat Sheet for 2026 (Attached in this post) In this video I break down the 17 core n8n nodes that I use in almost every automation I build. After creating more than 200 workflows for real clients, my own AI automation business, and even for YouTube videos, these are the nodes that consistently show up across every use case. I walk through each node with real examples and explain why mastering this short list gives you the power to build almost anything in n8n. If you learn these 17, you can move fast, build confidently, and handle almost any automation project you run into.

May this year bring you good health, happiness, and success in everything you do. New beginnings, new opportunities, and many reasons to smile. Cheers to a great year ahead!

I’m at a point where I need to narrow down a niche for my AI automation services and wanted to get some outside opinions. I’ve previously worked with a marketing agency, helping them with a Notion-based dashboard and some CRM automation — that gave me a good look into how messy ops can get and how much leverage automation provides. Right now I’m exploring: • B2B SaaS • SMMA / Marketing agencies • Other service-based businesses My goal is to eventually position myself as an AI Growth Partner — focusing on outcomes like leads, booked calls, and revenue growth rather than just “building automations”. For people further along: – Which niche gave you the fastest learning curve? – Which one has clients that actually take action? – Any beginner traps I should avoid? Appreciate any insights.
