EP 23: Smarter Automation with n8n and FileMaker
Description
In this episode of FileMaker DevCast, we dive into n8n—a flexible, low-code workflow automation platform that gives you total control over how your systems talk to each other.
We explore how n8n stacks up against tools like Zapier and Claris Connect, and walk through live examples of connecting Google Forms, FileMaker, email services, and even local AI agents. Learn how to build scalable, resilient automations—hosted on your own infrastructure or in the cloud—that will save you time.
You’ll hear about:
Real-world n8n workflows with Google Sheets and FileMaker
The power of "nodes" vs "zaps" and "connectors"
Triggering flows with webhooks, timers, or file changes
Using n8n with LLMs and vector stores for RAG-based AI
The pros and trade-offs of local vs SaaS hosting
Whether you're automating internal tools or building next-gen AI workflows, this episode will show you new ways to think about integration.
