Ready for 3.0. This template uses no nodes that n8n 3.0 removes. No removed nodes, versions or helpers found. Static check, last run 2026-10-19.

What this workflow does

This workflow has 15 nodes and runs when another workflow calls it. Along the way it connects Redis.

How it runs

Trigger: When another workflow calls it.

  1. Get lock value (Redis): get
  2. Is lock active? (If): checks a condition and branches into true / false
  3. Wait: waits 1 seconds
  4. Push to message list (Redis): push
  5. Crypto: hashes or encrypts values
  6. Set last update uuid (Redis): set
  7. Wait: waits 2 seconds
  8. Get last update uuid (Redis): get
  9. Am I last? (If): checks a condition and branches into true / false
  10. Set lock (Redis): incr

…plus 4 more steps. See the full node list below.

Services it uses

Before you upgrade to n8n 3.0
