Before you upgrade to n8n 3.0

2 things in this workflow are removed in n8n 3.0. Fix them before you upgrade:

  • AI Agent v1 (old agent modes) in AI Agent (v1.7): replace with Latest AI Agent node (Tools Agent). For SQL Agent, use a Postgres or MySQL tool with a recent AI Agent.
  • SerpApi (Google Search) in Web Search (SerpAPI): no direct replacement: call the SerpApi REST API with an HTTP Request tool, or use a verified community node.

Rather not rewrite it? Many of these flows can be rebuilt in Make (free plan).
