Auto Update n8n to Latest Version with Coolify

Automatically detect new n8n releases (stable or beta) from GitHub, update Coolify environment variables, and trigger deployments.

---

Functionality

This workflow automates deployment of n8n releases to a Coolify instance. It supports two tracks:

1. Beta Releases: Checks GitHub every minute for prereleases, filters duplicates, updates the N8N_VERSION environment variable, and deploys.
2. Stable Releases (disabled by default): Checks the latest stable release hourly and deploys.

Key Features:

• Deduplication: Ensures no repeated deployments for the same release.
• Version Parsing: Extracts the semantic version (e.g., 1.34.0) from GitHub release names.
• Coolify Integration: Updates environment variables and triggers deployments via API.

---

Expected Outcomes

• New n8n beta/stable releases detected via GitHub API.
• Coolify environment variable N8N_VERSION updated to the latest version.
• Automatic deployment triggered in Coolify.
