FlowProof for n8n

The n8n-nodes-flowproof community node — install it from Settings → Community Nodes.

tests Sponsor License Last commit Stars

Validate a workflow export imports cleanly — right inside n8n. Before you ship it to a client, publish it, or trust one you downloaded, FlowProof catches the exact things that break shared templates on import:

  • 🔑 leaked credentials embedded in the JSON (must never ship)
  • 🧩 missing / community nodes not installed on the target instance
  • ⬆️ version drift (a node exported from a newer n8n than the importer runs)
  • 🪢 broken connections and structural corruption
  • ⚠️ deprecated nodes & parameters

Runs entirely inside your n8n. No API, no network, no credentials — your workflows never leave the instance.

Install

Self-hosted n8n: Settings → Community Nodes → Installn8n-nodes-flowproof.

Operations

  • Check — full diagnostic report (importable, fidelity_score, blockers, manual steps, required community packages, per-issue detail).
  • Verify — a pass/fail verdict + the blockers, designed to gate a deploy (toggle Fail Node on NOT-Importable to stop a run).

Why trust the verdict

FlowProof's verdicts are arbitrated against a live n8n import — in testing against 20 real workflows from 3 sources, the check matched the live importer with 0 mismatches. This node re-implements that same logic in TypeScript and a CI parity test asserts it agrees with the reference engine on every fixture.

This node vs FlowProof Pro

This community node is the free FlowProof check, inside n8n. The full family:

What you get Where
FlowProof for n8n (this node) Check + Verify that a workflow imports cleanly, inside n8n. Free. Settings → Community Nodes
FlowProof CLI The same check from your terminal or CI. Free, MIT, Python. github.com/AkuchiS/flowproof
FlowProof Pro Goes further: repairs the workflow into an import-ready file, a content-hashed "FlowProof Checked" certificate, and a client-ready handover. fp.akuchis.com

About

FlowProof for n8n — a free community node that validates a workflow imports cleanly (leaked creds, missing nodes, version drift, broken connections), right inside n8n. Offline, no API.
